Dayong Nu sentenced to death

Chapter 329 Who belongs to the treacherous jade pendant?
The business of Baihualou was not booming. When Su Rao and the others found it, the shopkeeper was sleeping behind the counter, and Zhu Yan knocked on the counter, which made him sit up straight, with crystal saliva still hanging from the corner of his mouth.

"Who wants to pay?"

The shopkeeper quickly wiped it with his sleeve, and stood up straight. Seeing his appearance, Chen Wuyang felt that it would be useless to ask him for any useful information.

After Su Rao explained her intention, the shopkeeper was really at a loss.

"Girl, there are so many people coming and going in our restaurant every day, how can Cao Min remember clearly? Aren't you embarrassing me!"

"There are a lot of people coming and going, and there are not many men who wear curtains and cover up."

Su Rao signaled Yin Xuewei to come forward, and handed him the drawing of the carriage, "It's about a murder case, please trouble the shopkeeper to find all the guys in your shop, and have a look at them one by one, whether it's a person or a carriage, such an eye-catching dress , more or less should have some impression."

As soon as they came, all the guests in the restaurant lobby fell silent.

He looked at them curiously.

The shopkeeper saw that this posture could not be followed, and he only hoped to quickly recognize and send the group of plague gods away, so he called people very quickly. After a while, there were a total of eight people in the entire restaurant, including the servants and the handyman in charge of sweeping. They all stood in front of Su Rao.

"You have carefully looked over the case that the imperial envoy is going to handle. If you have seen this carriage or a mysterious man wearing a veiled hat, you must tell the truth."

The shopkeeper pretended to warn them, and then let them watch.

Su Rao said: "The shopkeeper really doesn't have any impression of this dressed man?"

"No."

The shopkeeper shook his head hastily, as if he felt that his answer was too fast and seemed a little perfunctory, and quickly explained: "The girl doesn't know something, usually this restaurant is run by my brother, his wife just gave birth in the past two days and needs to be taken care of. He couldn't get away, so I came to take care of him."

Su Rao asked calmly, "Who is taking care of the restaurant on the 24th?"

"He!"

"Then trouble the shopkeeper and ask him to come over."

The shopkeeper hesitated, "But his wife..."

"The effort of asking a few words can't be delayed."

Although Su Rao's attitude was gentle, there was an unquestionable determination in her voice, the shopkeeper's complexion changed, and he clenched his fist and smashed it in the palm of his hand, "Well, his house is in Fengkou Lane, I'll call him, and please wait a moment. "

"It's work."

After the shopkeeper left, Su Rao questioned the servants in the restaurant one by one.

"The man in the veiled hat did stay overnight in our restaurant, but I can't remember the exact date. I just remember that he ordered the hot water to be carried to the room. He said he wanted to take a bath and listen to the voice. He was a young man. People, less than thirty."

Hearing this, everyone was refreshed.

Su Rao asked the others to leave, led the handyman aside, and asked in a low voice: "Have you seen his appearance, or is there anything on him that can prove his identity?"

"nothing."

Seeing the handyman shaking his head, Zhu Yan said anxiously: "Didn't you say that he asked to carry hot water to the room? Didn't you go in and clean it up afterwards? He can't still wear the veiled hat after taking a bath, right?"

"That's not it."

The handyman replied cautiously: "The guest told me not to bother, and to clean up after he checks out the next day."

Seeing that there was nothing to ask, Su Rao let him go to work.

The group of people was very eye-catching in the restaurant, which affected the business in the building, so Su Rao led the people back out and waited outside. Soon, the shopkeeper ran towards them panting and pulling a person.

"This, this is Su girl."

After standing still, the shopkeeper took two deep breaths, and said to the thin man beside him, "Tell her carefully what happened to that man in the veiled hat that you met that night."

After barely finishing this sentence, he walked aside to catch his breath.

The man tried his best to suppress the messy breath, swallowed two mouthfuls of saliva, and bowed to everyone.

"The guest, Cao Min, who the girl is looking for, has some impressions. Didn't there be a lot of murders in those Tiancheng, and the officials were being dealt with, and the blood flowed like a river, which made the business in the building very bleak. There are no guests every day."

"It was cold that evening, Cao Min was thinking about going home early, and he came just as the door was about to close."

"He was covered in a veiled hat, and he spoke very gloomyly. He only said that he wanted an upper room, which would be quieter, and don't bother him if he had nothing to do. Then he went upstairs after paying the rent, and he didn't say three words during the whole process. "

Su Rao and the others looked at each other.

He didn't see the real face of this person, so it was a bit difficult. Qi Xiang made up his mind to take the blame for this person, and he would definitely not reveal his identity.

What is the relationship between this person and Cheng's case, and why Qi Xiang took the blame for him? How to solve these mysteries?

Seeing Su Rao's silence, the man felt a little nervous.

Subconsciously, he wiped the jade pendant hanging from his waist.

The moment the warm jade touched his skin, a picture flashed in his mind, his whole body trembled, and he said anxiously: "Yupei, he accidentally dropped the jade pendant when he went upstairs, picked it up and looked at it for a while, like I was inspecting it, the shape of the jade pendant was a little weird, Cao Min couldn’t help but look at it twice, and I still remember its shape.”

"Okay!"

Zhu Yan was overjoyed, and exchanged glances with Yin Xuewei and the others, "Shopkeeper, can you draw it for me?"

"Caomin try their best."

The shopkeeper walked into the restaurant, found some pens and paper, and began to draw. Seeing his concentration, Zhu Yan seemed to see the dawn, "After working for half a day, I finally found some clues."

Dayong Shangyu.

But all men with certain identities like to wear jade around their waists. There is a saying that "a gentleman has no reason, and jade does not go away", which is exactly the truth.

Jade pendant is a symbol of status.

Some big families like to blend their clan emblems into jade ornaments to declare their identity.

Maybe you can find some clues from it.

The shopkeeper quickly drew it and took it out, and handed it to Su Rao, Su Rao took a look, the shape was indeed weird, with a circular hollow in the middle, half the width of a pinky finger, decorated with curling moiré patterns on the outside, and tied with a knot on the top , with a silk sash hanging from the bottom, which is completely different from ordinary ornaments.

No wonder the shopkeeper can remember clearly.

Zhu Yanyuan still wanted to see something from the jade pendant, but now staring at the plausible pattern in front of him, he only felt that the top of his head was burning like smoke.

"What the hell is this?"

Who would want such a thing to hang around their waist?
Everyone in Yinxuewei scrambled to pass it on, and finally shook their heads unanimously. No one had ever seen such a jade pendant before, and there was no clue at all.

The shopkeeper panicked and said, "That's exactly what Cao Min saw, and there is no deception."

Zhu Yan smiled wryly, "I didn't mean that, I..."

He couldn't help but sighed, but didn't say anything further, it was really frustrating to say it.

Su Rao on the side looked at the paper for a long time, then suddenly said softly: "Look, does this shape look like..."
