Chapter 20
The palms collided with the wooden door, making a rumbling sound.

"Open the door!" Cheng Muqing roared.

This sound carried through the sky and broke through the sky.

For some reason, she is upset now.Seeing that no one came to open the door, Cheng Muqing immediately raised his foot and kicked it.

The wooden door is surprisingly strong.

Cheng Muqing stepped up and continued to push the door.

a bit!Twice!

"Come... come!" A trembling male voice came from inside the door.

The gate was opened, and Cheng Muqing jumped into the courtyard and quickly looked around.

"You... who are you? Come... who are you looking for?" the man was wearing a coat, hesitantly asking.

This movement also alarmed the people in the house. A woman stood at the door, pinching her waist and cursing, "Which girl are you, knocking on the door of someone else's house in the middle of the night? Licking your face, come to find a man?"

"Yes, come to find my husband." Cheng Muqing looked up at her, "What did you buy him for?"

"Your husband?" The woman immediately turned her gaze to the man.

The man immediately waved his hands with a look of horror, "It's not me! It's not me!"

"Did you buy a young man today?" Cheng Muqing gradually calmed down, she took a deep breath, raised her hand for comparison, "So tall, with beautiful eyes, very thin... the one who is thinner than me! "

The men and women in the courtyard looked at each other and shook their heads.

"That man is the current King Qi." Cheng Muqing looked at them calmly, "Can you let me search the yard?"

"Really... really not!" The man said hastily.

"But the clue I got is that King Qi is missing here?" Cheng Muqing took out a piece of silver from his pocket, "I'm searching the house now, if I don't find it, the money belongs to you. If I find it..." The second half of the talk In other words, her eyes sank.

The couple shuddered in unison.

"Let her search... Anyway, I can't find any men..." the husband said.

"Hmm..." The woman had no objection.

"Please enter the house." Cheng Muqing let the men and women enter the master bedroom, and began to search the house like a carpet.

During the period, Lin Yan also brought Jin Yingwei to come.

But neither of the two groups found Lin Heng's shadow here.

Lin Yan called the couple over, "What suspicious person do you see here today?"

The couple shook their heads in unison at first, and then under the pressure of Jin Yingwei, they said, "At noon today, I will lend this yard out for an hour."

"Who borrowed the yard?" Lin Yan asked hastily.

"Yes..." The man thought back, and his eyes met Lin Yan again.

Although the face of the young man in front of him was as gentle as jade, his smile didn't reach his eyes, and his eyes made him feel cold physically and mentally.

"It's an official..." the man said, "but I don't know who it is..."

"Since that person rented this courtyard as a cover when he was buying..., he will definitely not leave anything behind." Cheng Muqing pursed his lips, with a cold and creepy face.

In fact, needless to say this sentence, everyone on the field knew it clearly.

"Then search from door to door." Lin Yan said, "I won't let any official go."

At this moment, Cheng Muqing's wrists tingled.

She rolled up her sleeves, only to see scars on her slender wrists being strangled by something.She turned her wrist and found that there was a circle of scars on her wrist.

This scar... Cheng Muqing narrowed his eyes slightly.

Are...handcuffs?
"What's wrong with your hand?" Lin Yan's eyes were sharp, and his brows frowned involuntarily.

"It's okay..." Cheng Muqing lowered his hands, his brain racing.

The Jin Dynasty had very strict control over weapons, such as swords and the like, you must have a qualification certificate approved by the government before you can find a blacksmith to fight.Possession of armor is a felony.However, ordinary families only use ropes to bind people, and handcuffs are only used for criminals...

"Ministry of Punishment!" Cheng Muqing said suddenly, "Go and investigate the officials of the Ministry of Punishment!"

Lin Yan didn't know why she said that suddenly, but still ordered Golden Eagle Guard to investigate.

Several people evacuated in a hurry, and Cheng Muqing did not forget to leave a piece of silver for the owner of the yard before he left.

Jin Yingwei's ability to handle affairs is very strong, and he quickly gathered officials of all sizes from the Ministry of Punishment in one place.Because the family said he was an official, Jin Yingwei brought the selected officials to Lin Yan and Cheng Muqing.

Lin Yan first asked if he had seen King Qi, but all the people shook their heads.Cheng Muqing asked who had handcuffs, or who had ever asked for handcuffs.The scene was quiet for a long time, and someone said just now that the Prime Minister of Dali Temple had asked for it.

Right now, Cheng Muqing was going to the residence of Dali Si Cheng.

"Cheng Muqing, do you have a reason for doing all this?" Lin Yan who was following her was a little confused.

"No." Cheng Muqing said frankly, "It's just a hunch."

Hearing this, Lin Yan bent his lips helplessly and waved his hand, "Let's go to the Prime Minister's house in Dali Temple."

So, everyone rode their horses to the Cheng's house in Dali Temple.

After tossing so many times a day, everyone was a little tired.But in line with professional ethics, no one said they were tired.

But fortunately, this trip was not in vain.

The prime minister of Dali Temple was not at home, so he asked his wife, and the wife only replied, "Master is out to socialize, and he won't go home today."

Lin Yan can be regarded as an official fritter, and immediately saw that there was something wrong with her expression.Under his persecution, he got an address.

It turned out that the Prime Minister of Dali Temple had some little hobbies.It's just that going to the brothel hurts her status, so she bought a small house in a remote place.

As a bedside person, the wife of Dali Sicheng will naturally investigate the whereabouts of her husband who often does not come home.Also know the location of the house.

When Lin Yan was questioning, Cheng Muqing's eyes were attracted by a wooden carving in the house.

The big tiger carved in mahogany is lifelike, with a bowed body and a pair of fierce eyes.As if, rushing down in the next second, give the person staring at it a bite...

Isn't this from the former Chief Assistant's family?

As the chief assistant, the old man of the Yuan family has assisted Emperor Jin Ming for many years and raised him up from a young emperor.I don't want to be feared by the emperor. Right after he passed away, he was accused of corrupting ink, his descendants were killed, and those who were exiled...

Speaking of which, the old man of the Yuan family was considered a family friend with her maternal grandfather, and he even let Tao Yushan marry Saburo Yuan.Unfortunately, as soon as the marriage was settled, the whole family suffered.

"Cheng Muqing!"

"Cheng Muqing!"

Lin Yan yelled twice before Cheng Muqing came back to his senses.

"What are you looking at? It's time to go."

"Oh!" Cheng Muqing hurriedly followed.

According to the address, everyone came to an ordinary small courtyard.This courtyard is like the courtyard of ordinary people's homes, square and even a little small.It is precisely because of this that it looks very ordinary.

"Open the door!" A Golden Eagle Guard got off his horse and knocked on the door.

After knocking for a long time, the door opened a small crack.

"You are……"

"Golden Eagle Guard handles the case."

"Our family didn't commit any crimes." The servant said hastily.

"Have you ever seen such a tall boy who is seventeen or eighteen years old today?" Cheng Muqing compared, "Very thin."

The boy was taken aback, then quickly shook his head, "No."

 Cheng Muqing: "You have the ability to buy a man, why don't you have the ability to open the door!"

  Wife: Silver!Real money!
  Husband: If possible, let’s search a few more times...
