"No." Wei Jinyan replied coldly.

The small vendor slumped on the ground in despair.

Wei Jinyan knelt down and asked, "What's your name?"

"My name is... My original name was He Yao."

"Where did you catch the fish at your stall?" Wei Jinyan asked again.

"Yes... from..." He Yao stammered and couldn't speak.

"If you tell the truth, I will surely save your life." Wei Jinyan gave him a "reassurance".

"This... I didn't catch this fish myself, but another fishmonger sold it to me cheaply! I saw that the fish was killed for me, and it was so cheap that I sold it to me, so I kept it! "

"Then who is that fishmonger? Where does he sell fish?" Wei Jinyan asked again.

He Yao shook his head mournfully, and replied, "I don't know, I've never seen that fish monger before, he's a stranger."

"Then do you remember what that person looked like?"

He Yao recalled the appearance of that person carefully in his mind, and replied, "Okay... I seem to have remembered it."

Wei Jinyan looked back at Chu Xianyi behind him, and Chu Xianyi immediately understood what he meant, "I'll ask the jailer to bring paper and a pen!"

Bring paper and pen.

"You try to recall that person's appearance as much as you can, and don't let go of any details!" Wei Jinyan specially instructed.

"Yes! That man was about as tall as me, thin and dry, with a mole on the tip of his nose, dark and yellow skin, eyes that were drawn down, and... and... I don't remember much Others..."

"Are the lips thick at the top and thin at the bottom, or thin at the top and thick at the bottom?" Wei Jinyan asked.

"You...let me think...lips...lips?" He Yao paused, "Oh! I remembered! His lips are very thin from top to bottom, as if he has no lips at all!"

"What face shape? Round face? Square face? Or long face?"

"It seems to be...a face with a narrow top and a wide bottom. His two mandibles are very prominent, and those two bones seem to break his skin!"

"Are there any other details?"

He Yao thought for a while and replied, "No more!"

"Think about it again!"

He Yao thought about it seriously for a while, then shook his head, and replied seriously: "It's really gone."

Wei Jinyan stopped the pen in his hand, stood the picture he had just drawn in front of his eyes, and asked, "Is it like this?"

He Yao stared at the painting, his eyes widened, and he exclaimed excitedly, "That's right! It's exactly the same as the one on this painting! Your painting skills are really amazing!"

Wei Jinyan stood up and said to He Yao: "Then you stay here well, and we will let you out when we find out the murderer!"

"Hey, when did you find out the murderer?" He Yao looked at their backs and asked anxiously.

Wei Jinyan replied calmly: "It's a trivial matter, and it will be soon."

He Yao suddenly breathed a sigh of relief, and hope ignited in his heart.

suddenly.

He Yao seemed to have thought of something, and shouted: "Oh! That's right! Those fish seem to have a strange smell, but it's not a stinky smell. I can't describe it at the moment, what is that smell!"

Wei Jinyan's eyes paused, "Got it."

After leaving the prison.

"Ma'am, do you think he lied just now?" Wei Jinyan asked suddenly.

"Every time he describes that person's appearance to you, he will think for a while and look up. This is the habitual action of thinking or recalling. He doesn't seem to be lying." Chu Xianyi replied seriously.

"Then we want this person in the whole city now!"

Previously, the minister of Dali Temple had always believed that He Yao was the murderer of the fish poisoning case, so they never interrogated this person.

……

All of a sudden, the notice boards in the capital, large and small, were covered with the portrait of this person, and the common people gathered around to check it out, and many soldiers searched and arrested him on the street.

……

Wei Jinyan and Chu Xianyi went to see Dr. An, who was treating Qin Shilang, and asked about the situation. Chu Xianyi was afraid of being recognized, so she even covered her veil.

Imperial Physician An slowly shifted his gaze to Chu Xianyi who was beside Wei Jinyan, and asked suspiciously, "Hey? Prince Ren, why is the servant next to you still wearing a veil?"

Wei Jinyan paused in his heart, and after looking at Chu Xianyi, he calmly replied: "My attendant cherishes my face very much, but recently I accidentally ate something I shouldn't eat and I'm allergic, so my face I got some rashes, and I was ashamed to see people, so I covered myself with a veil."

"Oh, that's it, why don't you let the old minister take a look at it for him?" Imperial Physician An was about to come over and reach out to pull off the veil of the fiber storage instrument.

Wei Jinyan hastily stopped him and said, "Hey! My servant has asked the doctor to take the medicine, so I don't need to bother Imperial Physician An. I came to see Imperial Physician An today mainly to ask Qin Shilang how his condition is. Also, what was the poison he was poisoned by?"

Imperial Physician An sighed, and replied: "Qin Shilang's condition is not very good, he has been in a coma, but the old minister has not been able to determine what kind of poison he planted, angry that the old minister's medical skills are superficial, and Zhang Taiyi has been practicing medicine all his life. , in the end, the ancestral grave of my hometown was dug up, and now I am taking a leave of absence to go back to my hometown to rebury the grave!"

The old doctor who gave Wei Jinyan the fire-melting pill passed away not long ago. It seems that now, the only way to find other clues is to find the person in the painting.

……

Wei Jinyan and Chu Xianyi left the Imperial Hospital and came to the lively market.

A refreshing fragrance rushed into Wei Jinyan's nose.

The owner of the small stall on the side kept shouting: "Selling sugar-fried chestnuts, freshly cooked sugar-fried chestnuts! It's cheap! This old man, do you want something?"

"What? What? What are you talking about?!" The old man suddenly yelled, and if it wasn't for his old bones, he seemed to be able to overthrow him, "Why are you so disrespectful, young man? Are you calling me shameless?"

The owner of the candied chestnuts couldn't help twitching the corners of his mouth, turned up the volume, and patiently explained: "No, old man! What I'm talking about is, do you want some candied chestnuts? I'll sell them to you at a cheaper price! Is it right?"

However, the old man became even more furious. He reached out and raised his crutches, and was about to knock on him, cursing: "How dare you scold me for being so noisy? Don't you scold me for thinking that because of my old age, you won't be able to fight?" How dare you touch me?! You bad guy, why are you talking so badly?!"

The boss of the sugar-fried chestnuts was suddenly at a loss for words.

This ear-rearing, is it related to the Beihai country?
Wei Jinyan glanced at the candied chestnuts, and asked Chu Xianyi thoughtfully, "Madam, would you like some candied chestnuts? Husband, I'll buy them for you!"

"No." Chu Xianyi replied calmly.

Wei Jinyan saw the candied haws not far ahead, and asked intimately, "Then madam, do you want a candied haw? Husband, I'll buy it for you!"

"No, I won't eat." Chu Xianyi replied calmly.

Wei Jinyan suddenly approached Chu Xianyi's face, and said softly with a playful smile, "Then madam, do you want to eat me? Husband, I will give myself to you now."

"Wei Jinyan!" Chu Xianyi looked sideways at him helplessly, and scolded, "Do business!"

Wei Jinyan suddenly pushed Chu Xianyi's shoulder with his own, pushing her all the way to the wall.

"Wei Jinyan, you... what are you doing?" Chu Xianyi felt a little unnatural.

Wei Jinyan looked around at the people on the left and right, and suddenly reached out to lift up half of her veil.

Attached... and kissed her.

And let go of her veil again.

He whispered next to her ear: "In this way, your husband and I will be motivated to do business..."

At this time.

Suddenly there was a suspicious figure wearing a bamboo hat on the street. After glancing at the portrait, he turned and left in a hurry.

Wei Jinyan and Chu Xianyi quickly followed after they found out, passed through the bustling market, and came to the entrance of the alley, but no one was there.

She closed her eyes and listened carefully to the sounds around her.
