The evil emperor becomes my subordinate

Chapter 35 Suspicion
All of them were tall and handsome, and they guessed that the person who killed Miss Chen was about the same height as her.

"The guards in the palace are all carefully selected." Xie Yuxing obviously saw his thoughts, "Those who are too short, too fat, or have physical defects cannot enter the palace."

Yu Elegy's brows furrowed deeper and deeper. Could it be that this thing was really done by a woman?
The Prime Minister's eyes were obviously full of disappointment, but he still refused to give up. He wanted to deceive them. He held Miss Chen's purse in his hand and weighed it twice. "Does any of you know my daughter?"

All the guards answered almost in unison, "No!"

The Prime Minister sneered, "It's not that you don't have it. Now I have evidence in my hand to prove who is the murderer of my daughter. If you admit it now, I can keep the whole body for you. If you don't admit it, after I capture it, I will let you Death without a burial place.”

Everyone looked at each other, but still no one answered.

Yu Elegy held his forehead, if he could find out in this way, it would really be a ghost.

After all, a person may lack everything, but he will never lack luck.

Guard A sighed, "Sir, we all know that your daughter's life is precious, how can we dare to say a harsh word to her?"

"That's right, I've never even seen this young lady."

"Yesterday she said she was looking for a cat and ordered us to look for it most of the night. Then she turned around and said she had forgotten it at home, but we didn't say a word, right?"

Xie Yuxing's expression changed for some reason, and he immediately asked, "When did you find the cat?"

The guard scratched his cheek and said, "It must have been at dusk yesterday when I saw Miss Chen walking to Leng Palace. I thought she was lost, so I went up to ask, and she told me that she was looking for a cat."

The maid immediately denied it, "It's impossible, my lady doesn't like cats at all, and she doesn't have any at home."

Yu Elegy's eyes darkened a little, so this matter is very intriguing. The most likely thing is that Miss Chen was actually meeting someone who could not be seen by outsiders, so she deliberately chose a deserted place and did not expect to meet him. When the guard came on patrol, he found an excuse at random, so when he lied, he was not so sincere.

The Prime Minister frowned, "When was the last time you saw my daughter?"

"That time last night, Miss Chen said she found the cat, but she didn't come to tell her in person, so she asked a girl to come over."

Yu Xiangge immediately asked, "Do you remember what that girl looks like? Is it her?"

She was naturally referring to Miss Chen's personal maid.

The personal maid immediately waved her hand, "It's not me."

The guard turned around her face carefully twice and shook his head slightly, "That's not it. That girl's face was very yellow. It was like she had a layer of pastel on her face, so I was very impressed at the time."

Yu Elegy had another headache.

"It's coated with a layer of pastel." Xie Yuxing chewed these words carefully, and then looked at the queen, "Madam, were there any acrobats who performed in the palace yesterday?" The queen thought for a moment and quickly shook her head, " No, because after all, it is to commemorate the ancestors, and this kind of occasion is not suitable for too lively performances, so I only prepared singing."

Yu Xiangge still had some impressions of yesterday's show. She quickly ran through a few scenes in her mind, and then clapped her right palm with her left fist. "Weren't there some women wearing masks yesterday? Could it be those ones?" The mask is faded, that’s why you think she has a yellow face.”

"It's not impossible." The guard replied with uncertainty.

Yu Xiangge touched his chin again, "If this is the case, it will be easier to solve. After all, the team lost one person, not ten."

Without saying a word, the Prime Minister called in the troupe that sang yesterday.

"How did you expect the mask to fade?" Xie Yuxing was slightly puzzled. Isn't the gap between the two a bit big?
"In the past, there was no money in Zhuangzi, so I tried to be frugal when it came to clothes. Once I bought a piece of fabric that was not that good, and my whole body was stained yellow. I thought I had some disease."

When she said this, there was a faint smile between her eyebrows.

Xie Yuxing was thoughtful, and then asked, "Do you actually like life on Zhuangzi?"

The smile on Yu Yange's lips froze for a moment, but he did not deny it, and quickly nodded, "Yes, actually Zhuangzi is quite good, with beautiful mountains and clear waters, far away from the hustle and bustle. I wanted to come to the capital before because of family ties, but now I think about it. , I really want too much.”

Xie Yuxing rubbed her head, and before she raised her head feeling slightly uncomfortable, he retracted his hand silently, "What's the matter? Everyone has their own ambitions. In fact, what you yearn for may not be some remote and wild place, but it's just that this place is too impersonal. ”

Yu Elegy lowered his eyes.

"That's how it is here in the capital. From the outside, it looks glamorous and has everything. In fact, it's not. What's hidden under the gorgeous appearance here is materialism and blood. If you take it lightly, you will be swallowed up. There are no bones left. Although your parents are still alive and you have many brothers and sisters, your family is so indifferent to you."

Xie Yuxing said, with some unexplainable ripples in his eyes, "You came here originally for some blood and family ties, but now your hope has been shattered like a bubble. It would be difficult for anyone else to accept it."

The blockage in Yu Huange's heart seemed to be cleared a little. She smiled slightly and said, "I didn't expect that you could understand me so well."

It is too difficult to ask for a close friend in life. Most of the time, she just wants to endure it silently and swallow the unknown sadness. After all, if she doesn't have a close friend, she won't be disappointed.

Regarding Xie Yuxing, her attitude was that she could only watch from a distance but not play with him. Such a person in a high position had deep intentions and she did not dare to guess.

Xie Yuxing sighed softly, "Why do you always put yourself on the opposite side of me? Sometimes it can help you. You are relaxed and I am happy. Isn't it the best of both worlds?"

The expression on Yu Xiangge's face could not be considered to be embarrassment or embarrassment. She pinched the tip of her nose and rubbed it until it turned red, "I don't like to trouble people..."

Xie Yuxing sighed deeply. He should have been a little angry. He showed kindness to Yu Dirge several times, but she turned her back calmly. If it were an ordinary person, he might just treat her coldly. , but now he is not angry at all.

I even think Yu Elegy is quite cute.
