Chapter 1760
After leaving the guest house, Xiao Lingyue climbed over the wall from the other side of Li's house and left.
In a quiet alley.
She took off her heavy cloak, threw it into the pile of debris at the end of the alley, and left quickly.
It was getting dark now, and there were early morning vendors on the streets.
There was a lot of noise at the gate of Li's house. The government officials guarding the gate looked tense, as if they were wary of something. The intensity of the guards was obviously much stronger than before.
Xiao Lingyue curled her lips with satisfaction, and left quickly without stopping to look.
She went to the county government office and found Prince Xiang who had just woken up.
King Xiang was startled when he saw her suddenly appearing in the house: "You...how did you get in?"
He looked outside the door again: "Didn't the guard notice you?"
"I came in through the window. Communication was too troublesome."
Xiao Lingyue sat down at the table, poured a glass of water and drank it in one gulp. She looked a little tired and said, "I have something to do with you."
"What's the matter in such a hurry?"
Prince Xiang subconsciously asked, walking over and seeing the faint bruises under her eyes, "What did you do last night?"
Xiao Lingyue shook her head and said without further explanation: "There should be a topographic map of Yuanmu Town in the county government office. Can you get it?"
King Xiang was puzzled: "Why do you want a topographic map?"
"Something needs to be verified." Xiao Lingyue said simply, "Don't ask yet, I will explain it later."
Prince Xiang did not hesitate: "Okay, I'll go to Mr. Shen to ask for it. You wait in the room for a while."
Xiao Lingyue nodded.
Prince Xiang quickly walked to the door and gave some instructions to the guards. When he came back, his face looked a little strange.
"Shilang Shen went to the prison. I heard that an assassin was just caught in Li's house. He went to the prison to check the situation. I asked the guard to go to Master Ji to get it."
He looked at Xiao Lingyue curiously: "Did you just come from Li's house? What happened to the assassin?"
Xiao Lingyue did not hide it: "That was not an assassin, but a dead Nanyan soldier hiding in the caravan, and I caught him."
Prince Xiang became interested, lifted up his robe and sat down: "Tell me more carefully?"
Xiao Lingyue gave an overview of what happened last night.
When King Xiang heard her pretending to be an assassin and substituting tricks, he almost spat out a mouthful of water.
"No! This is okay?!"
"It's just good luck."
Xiao Lingyue smiled and said, "The light was poor at night, and the dead soldiers had to hide themselves from others and did not dare to show their true faces. That's why I took advantage of it. I killed one, but it was difficult to deal with the other, so I simply tied him up and threw him to the government officials.
Already.
Although the dead man spoke harshly, there was little hope of torture.
But if you can catch one, it’s one.”
Prince Xiang couldn't help laughing: "Thank you for thinking about it, I guess the people in the caravan didn't expect anyone to take advantage of this loophole."
Xiao Lingyue shrugged: "Then they can only blame themselves."
If the two dead men hadn't been so sneaky and covered themselves up with cloaks, it would have been impossible for her to disguise herself and sneak in.
The only thing to blame is their own guilty conscience.
I dare not show my true face.
"Dong dong." The door rang.
The guard said respectfully outside the door: "Master, what you asked for has arrived."
King Xiang got up and went to the door to get it himself. He soon came in with a roll of parchment and spread it out on the table.
