Chapter 138
The person on duty with Chen Lao Er immediately stood up after hearing Chen Shangshu's words.

After hearing his detailed description, someone next to him picked up a pen and paper and drew it. After finishing the drawing, Chen Shangshu took a look and felt that the outline of this person did not seem to be from here.

"There is nothing wrong with the person drawn on the paper, is it what you remember?"

Handing the painted picture to the yamen servant just described, Chen Shangshu asked in a dignified tone.

"Yes, my lord, this villain remembers this man's appearance. It's also my fault that my eyesight was clumsy at the time, but I didn't realize that this is not Chen Laoer. I hope my lord will forgive me."

The prisoner who sneaked into the prison was actually a smart one, knowing that the government servants have been on duty these days and have never had a break. These days, the government servants all want to go home and sleep well. Sometimes dizziness is normal.

This person chose to come to the cell at such a time. It seems that he has been paying attention to the people in the cell for a long time, and he may have been able to enter again, but the timing of this entry is also a bit too coincidental.

"Your punishment has been told to you, so go down!"

Chen Shangshu is not in the mood to talk about anything else with them now, anyway, he has finished asking, so they can go back to their posts first.

Holding the portrait that he had already drawn, he felt that this person really resembled Chen Lao Er, so it was no wonder that he would pretend to be Chen Lao Er. What does this prisoner have to do with it.

Soon, the picture of this person was posted, and the reward was very high. When the common people saw the person on the picture, they discussed it in whispers.

"This man has done something bad."

"It's said to be a murderer! It's really scary. Look at him, he looks like a murderer."

"Isn't it? It's really scary to look at, so it's no wonder that you do such a thing."

"According to your words, all of us with beards are bad people."

The woman in front turned her head, looked at the beards on their faces, and gave a tsk sound of disgust.

"See, this prisoner is also full of beards. If you don't want to be recognized as a prisoner, you should shave your beards quickly. Do you have to have the same beard as this prisoner?"

The man in the back was a little speechless after hearing this sentence, because what these women said seemed to be right!
Shen Qiqi also saw Chen Shangshu's handwritten letter, which described the prisoner's situation in detail, and also sent a copy of the portrait.

"This person's appearance is really too vague."

There are so many beards covering the face, how can I recognize it, although this big beard is quite recognizable, but if someone is clever and shaves the beard, even in the city, he will not be able to find it!

"Your Highness, this man looks like someone from outside the pass."

After seeing the person in the portrait, Yue Ling pinched His Highness's shoulder and said with a smile.

"Didn't I live in the border gate when I was a child? At that time, I often saw these people coming in and out, because some of those people would come to the border gate to do business, to do some fur business, and the sales were not very expensive, so the businessmen in the border gate were very special. Love doing business with them!"

At that time, Yue Ling felt that these business people were really good. There was so much money to buy furs, and the fur merchants were also very powerful.

"People outside the pass? They do look alike, not like people from our place."

Shen Qiqi didn't look like it anymore, if this person had shaved his beard, it would probably make a difference!
"Yue Ling, go and get the pen and paper! I'll draw another picture."

She wanted to see what the man looked like with the beard removed, maybe it would lead to a suspect more quickly.

After Yue Ling listened to her instructions, she immediately prepared the pen and paper. Shen Qiqi looked at the original portrait and carefully drew the outline of the person's upper face. Because more detailed explanation was needed, she asked him to The yamen servant who saw it at that time came over and described it again.

When the portraits came out, Shen Qiqi ordered Yue Ling to show the portraits to the yamen servants. She also drew a lot of beardless ones. Although people's faces look all kinds of strange, but now she can be regarded as casting a net everywhere and focusing on fishing fish.

Fortunately, I used to learn face modeling because of my interest. Although I only learned it on a whim, it can be regarded as useful now.

"Your Highness, your painting is getting better and better. It looks like a real person. The servant in the side hall also said that the painting is exactly the same as the one he has seen before."

Yue Ling looked at His Highness's painting and smiled proudly. She felt that His Highness was really getting better and better.

"Yue Ling, go to the kitchen to see if there are pastries. I want to eat after painting, otherwise my mind always feels that there is no way to relax."

After Shen Qiqi put down her pen, she stretched her waist, looked around and put away the things on the table.

When Yue Ling heard that the princess wanted to eat, she quickly responded, and quickly ran to the kitchen with her skirt in hand, ordering the people in the kitchen to quickly make pastries and bring them over.

Qing Cheng who was standing outside saw Yue Ling running so fast that he was about to fly, his expression froze, he thought something happened.

"Miss Yueling, what orders does Her Royal Highness have?"

"It's nothing, Your Highness just wants to eat something."

Qingcheng: ...

With something edible in her mouth, Shen Qiqi's fast-moving mind could finally rest. She ate a bite of pastry and drank tea, wondering whether this painting should be seen by others.

"Yue Ling, do you think I look alike?"

As the number one fan of His Royal Highness the Eldest Princess, Yue Ling naturally waved the flag and shouted like it.

"Your Highness, of course you drew a likeness."

Shen Qiqi felt that she had found the wrong person to ask, so she called Qingcheng in, and turned the two paintings over for him to see.

"This is the portrait of the prisoner drawn by the painter in the yamen. This is the portrait I drew carefully just now. Look at the two paintings. I didn't draw too much!"

To be honest, most of the portraits drawn by these painters nowadays are a bit abstract, just like the sign of the identity verification during the imperial examination.

Therefore, Shen Qiqi felt lucky to be able to find someone with the portrait painting skills of the artist here, if he couldn't find the prisoner, it must be because the portrait was too inappropriate.

"Princess, what are these portraits of you?" Qingcheng saw that there were many beardless portraits on the table.

"What I'm thinking about is the outline of this man without a beard. I also wonder if I can use this method to catch the prisoner."

Shen Qiqi thinks this is also a solution!
