After leaving the living yard, Xiao Lingyue climbed over the wall and left from the other side of Li's house.
In the quiet alley.
She took off her heavy cloak, threw it into the pile of debris at the end of the alley, and quickly left.
It was already dawn and there were early vendors on the streets.
The gate of Li's house was noisy, and the yamen guarding the door looked tense, as if they were alert to something, and the strictness of the guards was significantly stronger than before.
Xiao Lingyue curled the corners of her mouth with satisfaction, and did not stop and looked at it more quickly.
She went to the county government office and found King Xiang who had just woken up.
When King Xiang saw her suddenly appear in the room, he was startled: "How did you come in?"
He looked outside the door again: "Didn't the guard notice you?"
"I came in through the window, it was too troublesome to spread it."
Xiao Lingyue sat down at the table, poured a glass of water and drank it all, looking a little tired, "I have something to do with you."
"What's the matter so urgent?"
King Xiang asked subconsciously, walked over and saw the faint green marks at her, "What did you do last night?"
Xiao Lingyue shook her head and did not explain much: "The county government should have a topographic map of the log town. Can you get it?"
King Xiang was puzzled: "What do you want to do with the topographic map?"
"Something needs to be verified." Xiao Lingyue said simply, "Don't ask first, I'll explain later."
King Xiang did not hesitate much: "Okay, I'll go and ask Mr. Shen for it. You can wait in the house for a while."
Xiao Lingyue nodded.
King Xiang quickly walked to the door and gave a few instructions to the guards. When he came back, his face looked a little strange.
"Mr. Shen went to the prison. I heard that a assassin had just been caught in Li's house. He went to the prison to see the situation. I asked the guards to find Ji Zhuan."
He looked at Xiao Lingyue curiously: "Did you just come from Li's house? What's going on with the assassin?"
Xiao Lingyue did not hide it: "That was not an assassin, but a Nanyan dead soldier hiding in the caravan. I caught him."
King Xiang became interested and sat down with his clothes and said, "Tell me carefully?"
Xiao Lingyue roughly said what happened last night.
When King Xiang heard her disguised assassin and moved flowers and wood, he almost sprayed a mouthful of water.
"No! This is OK?"
"It's just good luck."
Xiao Lingyue smiled, "The light was poor at night, and the dead soldiers wanted to cover up their eyes and ears, so I took advantage of the loopholes. I killed one, but the other was difficult to deal with, so I simply tied it up and threw it to the yamen servants.
It's right.
Although the dead man is stubborn, there is little hope for questioning.
But if you can catch one, you will be one."
King Xiang couldn't help laughing: "You can think of it. I guess the caravan didn't expect anyone to take advantage of such a loophole."
Xiao Lingyue shrugged: "That's all they can blame."
If the two dead men hadn't acted in a sneaky manner and put on a cloak to hide, she wouldn't have been able to get in disguise.
If you want to blame, you can only blame them for being guilty.
I dare not show up in my true face.
"Dongdong." The door rang.
The guards said respectfully outside the door: "Young Master, what you want has arrived."
King Xiang got up and went to the door to get it. He soon came in with a roll of parchment and spread it on the table.
"This is the topographic map of Log Town." He looked at Xiao Lingyue, "What do you want to verify?"
