Chapter 537 What a Headache! (two more)
This meal of wine did not rest until early in the morning, and they all rested at Qin's house.

At the end of the next day, everyone got up. After Qin Wubing washed up, he saw Chen Haonan strolling in the yard. He walked over, and the two chatted about the case of the Bai family in Xichang Prefecture.

Chen Haonan said: "According to Mr. Xie's intention, I will hang up the plaque on the yamen in these two days, and write the inscription by the emperor himself. After the decree comes down, I will leave for Xichang Mansion!"

"Are there enough people?" Qin Wubing asked.

"Master Xie brought a few people, and also ordered me to bring some people. I have the same meaning as Master Xie, and take the case of Xichang Mansion into action!"

"I'll add someone to you. He's an assistant from the capital government office. He has experience and brains. His name is... Song Jiang!"

"People from the government office?"

"Don't worry, I'll give it to you if I say so, and I'll pick you up later."

……

Xie Yu still had a lot of things to do, and Song Fu was also very busy, so the two of them got up and left after eating.

Chen Haonan ate with Qin Wubing, and then went to the government office to pick up Song Jiang.

Only then did Qin Wubing plead guilty to Zhao Qingyan and said, "Without Mr. Zhao's consent, he gave away Wu Zuo on his own initiative last night with the help of alcohol. I hope Mr. Zhao will not be surprised."

Zhao Qingyan waved his hands again and again and said, "It's his good fortune that Qin Duwei can fall in love with him!"

"It also shows that Mr. Zhao has the ability to know people!"

The old monk stood aside and hummed coldly.

Zhao Qingyan was very useful, and smiled sincerely. Thinking of the business, he immediately restrained his smile and said, "Yesterday, Captain Qin ordered the portrait to be drawn, and it was drawn. This morning they went to various villages to find someone to identify it. Next, do what?"

Qin Wubing's mood suddenly became heavy, he scratched his forehead and said, "Let's wait for the news first."

After finishing speaking, Qin Wubing sat down on the chair, picked up the tea, and the old monk also sat down slowly. He waited for Zhao Qingyan to go out, and then asked Qin Wubing what it meant.
This is not Qin Wubing's way of investigating the case, he will not wait like this, even if he is stuck there and has no progress for a while, he will definitely think of another way to continue the investigation.

Zhao Qingyan has other things to do, and he can't just sit here with Qin Wubing all the time. He hesitated for a while, but before he could speak, Qin Wubing said first: "Master Zhao, go get busy, come here if you have something to do."

Zhao Qingyan nodded, got up, saluted and left.

Seeing that Zhao Qingyan was gone, the old monk immediately came back to life. He sat beside Qin Wubing, and before he could speak, Qin Wubing said first, "Seventh Uncle, don't worry, I haven't thought it through yet. I will say that and Seventh Uncle listened."

"Why didn't you think about it? I didn't want to ask about the case, I just wanted to say that you have a problem! This is not the way you investigate the case!"

Qin Wubing sighed, but didn't say anything.

It stands to reason that when he learned from Dequan yesterday that the eldest princess knew where the exit was, he should have gone out of the palace to ask, but he... dare not!
What the eldest princess knew must have been told by the emperor. Since the emperor told the eldest princess, he asked the eldest princess to tell him what he meant. In this way, the emperor didn't have to speak about some things, and he was put on by the emperor again.

"Speak up! You're dumb!" The old monk was a little anxious: "You must have known something when you entered the palace yesterday. I will tell you everything, but you keep it from me!"

Qin Wubing groaned and said, "I haven't figured it out yet, I'm afraid..."

"Are you afraid that I will be implicated? No need! Even if my head is really lost this time, I will listen!"

"Don't lose your head, who would dare to take your head!" Qin Wubing said angrily.

"Then what are you afraid of?"

"I'm afraid of Yu'er!"

"What do you mean?"

Qin Wubing turned his head and glanced at Feng Ming, Feng Ming went out directly.

Qin Wubing scratched his forehead, and then said:

"How does Madam Xu know that the secret passage is not important anymore? What is important is that the secret passage is not only guarded, but also has many traps inside. The exit has long been blocked. How did she get out?"

The old monk was very surprised and asked: "Could it be that she came out of a secret path?"

"The blocked exit was re-blocked the day before yesterday."

The old monk was stunned for a moment before trying to understand this sentence. He came out of the secret passage, so he hurriedly asked, "Where is the exit?"

"I didn't ask."

"did not ask?"

"Ok!"

Qin Wubing slumped against the back of the chair.

The old monk turned his head, and suddenly grabbed Qin Wubing's arm in horror and said, "Could it be that Yu'er's mother and concubine passed through this secret passage..."

Qin Wubing sighed and said: "I thought it was already over, but I can't think about it forever! I really want to kill He Sheng, and ask him what other holes he dug!"

"Is this related to He Sheng?"

"How do you think the Empress Dowager knows there is a secret passage?"

The old monk thought for a while and came to a conclusion: "The late emperor believed in any birth too much!"

Qin Wubing said: "He Sheng started arranging early in the morning, once the court starts to investigate, how he will divert the emperor's attention, the queen mother has no brains, it is the most suitable!"

"Since He Sheng told the Queen Mother about this, what does it have to do with Yu'er's mother and concubine?"

Qin Wubing looked at the old monk, sighed, and said as if talking to himself: "Yesterday, when Yu'er mentioned the secret way, she didn't have the slightest strange expression. It can be seen that she didn't think about this level."

The old monk stared blankly at Qin Wubing. He knew that since Qin Wubing said that he was related to the eldest princess' mother and concubine, it must be related, but what is the relationship?The old monk wanted to use his intelligence and figured it out for himself.

Seeing the old monk in a daze, Qin Wubing began to close his eyes and meditate. When the mystery of the case was revealed, he was worried that the eldest princess would be sad again, so even though he knew that the eldest princess was at home at the moment, he didn't immediately go back to ask The matter of the exit of the secret passage should be delayed for a while.

One of them was racking their brains and the other was emptying their minds. Zhao Qingyan was stunned when he hurried in.

Qin Wubing heard the movement and opened his eyes.

The old monk frowned and looked at Zhao Qingyan, annoyed that he interrupted his train of thought, and asked angrily: "You are in such a hurry, did you find someone who knows the portrait?"

Zhao Qingyan hurriedly said: "A villager recognized a person in the portrait, who belonged to a village nearby."

Qin Wubing immediately sat up straight and asked, "Near Zhuangzi? How near?"

Zhao Qingyan said:

"Most of the Zhuangzi outside the city are owned by kings and grandsons. This person just thinks that the person in the portrait belongs to a nearby Zhuangzi. He can't tell which Zhuangzi it is. This person recognized the portraits, and according to my opinion, he couldn't count them, so he didn't let the yamen servants go to Zhuangzi to ask."

Qin Wubing nodded, stood up and said:
"Then ask someone to see if you can recognize the portrait. It is best to recognize which Zhuangzi it is from. Mr. Zhao also knows that since I am investigating the case, there is no one in the capital that I dare not move, but , The government government has made such an investigation, Zhuangzi who thinks something is going to happen must know about it, I will arrange someone to watch it, Master Zhao just let it go and investigate."

Zhao Qingyan understood.

Qin Wubing said again: "I'll make arrangements right now, Mr. Zhao can order someone to look for me at home if there is something to do."

Zhao Qingyan nodded frequently, thinking how hard this Captain Qin was!
After leaving the mansion, Feng Ming said solemnly: "Since it is arranged by the son-in-law, then I will not participate in this matter!"
