I continued to search the entire room for a while, but there was no other information.
Now, the only thing found is this little scrap of paper.
At least it is certain that the person the Minister of Rites came here to meet was most likely the person who gave him the bribe letter.
"Next, should we ask the madam?"
Cang Hong said coldly.
Now as long as we can extract information from the mouth of the Madam of Xiangyue Tower and find out who lives in this room, then everything will be revealed.
But when they came to the main building and found the madam.
Facing the two people's questions, the madam looked very confused.
"What? Someone lived in that yard? How is that possible?"
"There are indeed traces of someone living there, including Miss Ruyan."
Lin Yiqiu stared at the madam with a serious tone.
However, the madam still shook her head after hearing this.
"It's impossible, it's impossible! That yard was abandoned a month ago, and it's been empty ever since."
"How could I not know if someone lived there?"
Faced with the madam's answer, both Lin Yiqiu and Canghong felt very surprised.
But judging from the look on the madam's face, she really didn't know.
This is strange.
Whether it was Miss Ruyan's account or Lin Yiqiu's own investigation, it was certain that there was someone in the house.
However, now he got a completely different answer, which completely confused Lin Yiqiu's thinking.
Frowning, Lin Yiqiu felt more and more that this matter was not simple.
"That woman did not lie."
Sitting on the chair, Cang Hong spoke in a deep voice.
He is the commander of the Jin Yiwei and can easily tell whether a person is lying.
Because when lying, a person's demeanor is slightly different from usual, and these cannot escape his eyes!
But judging from the Madam's demeanor, everything she said was true.
"This is really a headache. Even the madam herself didn't realize anyone was living in it."
"Good guy, could it be that you encountered a ghost?"
Lin Yiqiu joked.
But what the madam said is indeed correct.
The yard looked empty and a bit deserted.
Who of the guests who come to Xiangyue Tower would stay there if they have nothing to do?
Moreover, Xiangyue Tower is the brothel with the largest customer flow in the capital.
The grade is not low and the decoration is excellent.
If you allow guests to live in that kind of courtyard, wouldn't you be ruining your own brand?
Both emotionally and logically, what the Madam said was right.
"Could it be that girl Ruyan who deceived you?"
Cang Hong put forward a conjecture.
Lin Yiqiu thought for a moment and shook his head.
"No, she doesn't need to lie to me, I can see it too."
"Besides, we did find traces of someone living inside. There is no doubt about this."
While talking, Lin Yiqiu took out the scrap of paper again.
"Just like this, the traces of burning should be within three days, which means that at least three days ago, there was definitely someone in the yard!"
"But who could it be? Why is he living there and not being discovered?"
At this time, this issue has become the key to solving the case.
"Well, I have an idea."
Cang Hong said: "I will immediately go to Tingshuxuan to investigate and ask the boss who has bought cloud rice paper from him recently!"
"If you're lucky, the boss might actually remember it."
"Looking for a needle in a haystack."
Lin Yiqiu sighed: "Although this cloud rice paper is expensive, there are usually many people buying it. It is really not easy to select one from so many people."
"That's it, there is no other way. Just give it a try. If you have any clues, just remember to tell me as soon as possible."
Lin Yiqiu patted Cang Hong on the shoulder.
"You won't come with me?"
Cang Hong's face twitched.
Lin Yiqiu turned around with a smile on his face.
"I have been out for a long time and I have to go back to be with my wife quickly. She is pregnant, how can I stay away longer?"
"So, Commander Cang, we still have to rely on you to handle this case!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Lin Yiqiu had already slipped away from Xiangyue Tower.
Cang Hong's expression was speechless for a while.
However, Wei Wanqiu was pregnant, and he also knew that Lin Yiqiu could come out at this time, which was already a sign of friendship.
Moreover, if Emperor Qian hadn't specifically explained it, Lin Yiqiu wouldn't have had to ask about this matter.
"Forget it, I'll take someone to take a look first and then talk about it."
After taking a sip of tea, Cang Hong quickly left Xiangyue Tower.
After returning home, Lin Yiqiu couldn't wait to go straight to the bedroom to see Wei Wanqiu first.
The latter seems somewhat surprising.
"You came back so early? I thought you were going to stay late?"
"I have a wife at home, how can I be willing to stay there all the time! Of course I have to come back to be with my wife!"
Lin Yiqiu hugged her with great love in his heart.
In fact, Lin Yiqiu felt a little guilty.
Damn, I said I wouldn’t do anything outrageous in a brothel.
In the end, he still lost control and was taken down by Ruyan!
Holding Wei Wanqiu in his arms, Lin Yiqiu felt like he was not a human being when he thought of this!
"Never do this again next time!"
I thought to myself.
Lin Yiqiu felt that if he encountered anything related to Xiangyue Tower in the future, it would be better to let Cang Hong go alone!
The next day, early in the morning, in Emperor Qian's palace.
Looking at Lin Yiqiu who was slightly bent in front of him, Emperor Qian frowned.
"So, the death of the Minister of Rites is really probably related to someone who was more knowledgeable?"
After listening to Lin Yiqiu's words, Emperor Qian was still slowly digesting it.
Lin Yiqiu responded truthfully: "I am actually not sure about this matter. After all, the Minister of Rites did hang himself at home!"
"At present, I can only find out that it may have something to do with it, but I can't tell whether his death is related to this."
"Well, the interrogation will start soon, and this case is getting more and more mysterious."
"The death of the Minister of Rites is a blow to many students in our dynasty! I recently heard rumors in the world that it was because I was too fond of the eunuchs and alienated the wise ministers, so the Minister of Rites hanged himself!"
Looking at Lin Yiqiu in front of him, Emperor Qian had a playful expression on his lips.
It is said that she favors eunuchs. Needless to say, the person she favors is naturally the person in front of her!
"Lin Yiqiu, what do you think?"
Qiandi asked with a smile.
Lin Yiqiu lowered his head and answered leisurely after a long while.
"Your Majesty, according to my opinion, this statement is pure fart!"
"Not only did I and Your Majesty have nothing to do with the death of the Minister of Rites, but now I have to go back and forth over the cause of his death!"
"Oh, I am simply the most miserable eunuch in the world!"
Lin Yiqiu felt very tired.
He is one of the few people in the court who is doing practical things, but none of these private students can see his contribution!
It's sad, do eunuchs deserve to be discriminated against like this?
After hearing this, Emperor Qian also smiled helplessly.
"I can't help it. If they think this way, I can't control them. But I have one more thing to tell you."
