late Qing Dynasty

Chapter 88
"Here, it's already packed." Yixin pointed to the pocket in the hand of the guard beside her, signaling me to rest assured.

"Have everyone here been interrogated?"

"Not yet, I'm waiting for you to come and join us. I'm no match for you when it comes to solving cases." Yi Xin teased me with a smile.

I understood and gave him a smile back, "Master Liu, you are trying to be lazy!"

This Yixin is very slippery, and never forgets me whenever there is a problem.

"Hehe, it's good to know it in your heart, why bother to say it."

"People are tough!"

I made fun of Yi Xin, then returned to a serious look, "Let's go, let's go and see what the guards here say."

"Let's go." Yi Xin's expression became serious.

We all know in our hearts that even interrogation will definitely not yield any results, but I just want to see if I can find any clues.

There are traces when the water passes, and the wind leaves a sound. Even if their arrangements are perfect, there will be some things left behind.

And these things are strong evidence to catch them.

When Yixin and I arrived at the lobby of the Nine-Men Admiral's Yamen, all the Yamen here were already standing by.

"Sixth Master, take your seat." I made a gesture of invitation, signaling him to take the main seat.

Yixin didn't refuse, and sat up directly, while I stood aside, so as to observe the expressions and reactions of those clerks.

The first clerk came up, and Yixin asked routinely, "What were you doing an hour ago?"

"If you go back to the prince, the little one is patrolling the streets." Yacha replied respectfully.

"Is there someone with you?" Yixin continued to ask.

"If you go back to the prince, Da Li and the younger one are patrolling the streets together, and Da Li can testify for the younger one."

"Which one is Da Li?" Yi Xin asked.

"The villain is Da Li, my lord. An hour ago, the younger one was indeed patrolling the streets with Wang Dafa. Today it's our turn to patrol the streets."

"Well, you two go down first, next one."

The following series of people are all similar to these two people, with the same rhetoric, each with their own tasks, and they are all impeccable.

Can't see anything at all.

There was only one person, who was a little suspicious. He said that he was in the latrine at that time, and there was no witness. He should be on vacation today, but he appeared in the yamen.

If my guess is correct, he should be one of Zhu Yuanhong's entourage, and for some reason he slipped through the net.

After everyone retreated, I walked towards Yixin and whispered, "Master Liu, send someone to watch over that Zhao Dabao."

"Okay." Yi Xin gave a few instructions to the guard next to her, then turned her head and asked me, "Why, did you find anything?"

"I'm not sure now, let's follow him to see if there is any abnormality." I replied.

In fact, I only have [-]% doubts. After all, the possibility of my guessing is very small, or it is a wild and unconstrained fantasy.

"Let's go, there are still things waiting for you to do!" Yixin patted my shoulder and walked outside.

I know he's talking about the smashing of the English Consulate, but if we can't find out who's behind the scenes, we're in danger all the time.

I took a few steps and caught up with him, "Liu Ye, go and check to see who among the rich and powerful in the capital is closer to foreigners, or who is selling opium privately."

Since there is no clue from the case itself, we can only start looking for needles in a haystack and eliminate them one by one.

"Do you suspect that those people did it?" Yi Xin frowned slightly, as if she was thinking about something.

"Didn't Master Liu doubt it?" I asked him back.

With Yixin's wisdom, it is absolutely unthinkable that this matter may have something to do with those people.

Why those people did things to me, firstly, because I participated in the matter of quitting smoking, and secondly, because I was a Han Chinese, so they didn't touch Yixin, but started on me first.

Therefore, I am more suspicious of those Manchu nobles, who are the most suspicious.

"Okay, I'll arrange for people to do it. Think about it first, how to let foreigners bite dogs is the top priority." Yixin said as she walked.

I chuckled and shook my head, "Liu Ye, Liu Ye, we are the meat on the cutting board now, let's deal with this matter first."

In fact, I have already made arrangements for the smashing of the English Consulate, and I have already asked Mei Shuang to do it. If it is as expected, there will be a result within three days.

"Then what do you think we should do?" Yi Xin felt a little troubled.

"Where are those poisonous needles?" I asked him.

Yixin waved to the guard next to me, and the guard presented the silver needle in front of me.

I gently picked up one of the silver needles with a handkerchief, and observed carefully, "Master Liu, do you think this poisonous needle is silver?"

"What else can it be if it's not silver?" Yixin asked me strangely.

I shook my head, "Silver needles are usually oxidized to black when they encounter poison, especially poisons like aconitum. Look, this needle has not changed at all, which means that this needle is not an ordinary silver needle."

"It really is so." After carefully looking at it, Yixin couldn't help admiring, "Zhongzheng, you can be said to be the Di Renjie of my Qing Dynasty."

"Hehe, it's just an ordinary deduction." I smiled modestly, and then said, "Sixth Lord, now you secretly send a team of people to investigate secretly to see where in the capital such things are produced. needle."

"Okay, I'll arrange it right away." Yixin explained a few words to the guard next to him, and couldn't help but praise me, "Zhongzheng, with you, the Qing Dynasty will definitely be restored."

"Six Lord, I still say the same thing, we must build a democratic and republic country, this is what China needs now." I expressed my position.

The rule of the Qing Dynasty has gradually collapsed. This feudal social system has no human rights at all. Under the general trend of the world, it will be eliminated sooner or later. If it is maintained blindly, it will only end up as the sick man of East Asia.

"But now is not the time at all. When there are a lot of internal and external troubles, you can't launch a palace coup at all." Yi Xin looked at me very firmly.

I agree with his statement, but not doing it now does not mean not doing it in the future.

"Master Liu, when the time is right, I will definitely change the current political system." I clearly told him my attitude.

"If that time really comes, I will definitely support you!" Yi Xin said with a light smile.

"Let's go, go to your house for dinner and wait for news."

I'm still thinking about the good wine and food in Prince Gong's Mansion.

"Haha..." Yi Xin shook her head and laughed, followed behind me, "Let's go! You still remember the food and drinks at my house!"
