Chapter 67 Squeeze Her Palm

"Returning to my son, an old couple came to report the case a few days ago. Half a month ago, their daughter Xiaoyue went missing. The official got the news today that someone found a body near Yanbo Lake, so the official brought people to look for it. "Zhou Zheng said and looked at the Wupeng boat, "Dare to ask my lord, was the female corpse on your boat found in Yanbo Lake?"

Murong Che nodded, and praised, "The Governor of Jingzhao also personally took care of such things as the search for corpses, which is really an example for all officials."

"Your Majesty's absurd praise." Zhou Zheng bowed and cupped his hands, then raised his eyes cautiously, "Master, can I take this female corpse away?"

Murong Che raised his hand to signal that Zhou Zheng was overjoyed, and immediately thanked him a thousand times, "It's really thanks to His Royal Highness Shi Zi, otherwise I don't know when I will find it."

Su Qingran couldn't help tugging at the corner of Murong Che's clothes to remind him.

This female corpse is very likely to be Yingying, what is he doing, handing him over?

However, she talked for a long time, but Murong Che did not respond.

Biting her lip, just as she pulled hard, her little hand was suddenly grasped by a warm palm.

Her big hands were tightly wrapped, and she could no longer move them.

The palms touched, as if an electric current had passed by.

Su Qingran's heart trembled inexplicably, and she hurriedly pulled out her little hand, but the man gently squeezed her palm, as if telling her not to worry.

This little move...

So shameful, so ambiguous!
For a while, Su Qingran's palms were a little sweaty, and her little hands gradually became stiff, not daring to move.

Only then did Murong Che let go of her, and said coldly, "This female corpse can be taken away by the governor of Jingzhao Prefecture, but I want to go with him to attend the trial of the governor of Jingzhao Prefecture."

"This..." The smile on Zhou Zheng's face froze slightly, and he hesitated to speak out.

"Why, is there something wrong?"

"There's nothing wrong with it, it's just a case of missing persons, and I'm worried that I'll waste your son's time."

"It doesn't matter. This son discovered this female corpse. If necessary, this son can provide some clues."

"Yes, sir." Zhou Zheng raised his hand and asked.

Murong Che nodded, watching the yamen servants transport the woman's corpse away, he called Bailihe and whispered instructions, "You immediately lead someone to search for the corpse in Yanbo Lake, and you must be ahead of the people from Jingzhao Mansion."

At that time, Hua Niang's confession mentioned that Yingying eloped with Wu Sheng, a handyman in Baihualou.

If the female corpse was Yingying, then Wu Sheng's corpse must be nearby.

After giving the order, Murong Che took Su Qingran and Zhou Zheng to Jingzhao Mansion.

Seeing the two leaving figures, Bailihe couldn't help but twitched the corner of his mouth.

Let him go to retrieve the corpse again, why is this dirty work all his?

When he arrived at Jingzhao Mansion, Zhou Zheng didn't dare to rest for a while, so he took the female body directly to the court.

Su Qingran couldn't help sighing that there might not be many people in Donglin who are as diligent as Jingzhaofu Yin.

After Murong Che sat down, she stood behind him respectfully.

After being promoted, an old couple was brought up by the yamen servants.

When the gavel fell, the old couple trembled in fright, and hurriedly knelt down, "I beg you to be the master for the little people..."

"Just now, my officer found a female corpse in Yanbo Lake area. You two come to identify it. Is it your missing daughter Xiaoyue?"

"What, Yue'er, she..."

The old couple turned pale and looked aside stiffly.

A yamen servant stepped forward and slowly lifted the white cloth covering the corpse.

The old couple kneeling in the lobby only took a quick glance, and immediately burst into tears.

"Yue'er, you died a terrible death..."

"You are dead, how will your parents live in the future..."
