Chapter 134 Maybe It's Not That Bad

At this time, although it was already early February in Chang'an, there was no sign of spring.

Not to mention the green leaves on the branches, there was even a thin layer of ice residue left on the ground.

Even though Su Qinchao was wearing quite a lot of clothes, his body was still protected by the circulation of internal energy.

But after accompanying Princess Yucheng motionlessly in the cold wind for nearly two quarters of an hour, he could no longer bear it.

He felt the fierce cold wind sneaking through his feathers, bypassing his thick cloak, and slowly pulling away the warmth in his body.

Therefore, after waiting for a while, Su Qinchao planned to secretly mobilize his internal energy and speed up its circulation to warm up his legs that were almost numb.

It was at this time that Princess Yucheng, who had her back to him and was wondering what she was thinking, suddenly turned around:

"Something happened to one of the secret guards, and the final clue is tied to Li Ji." Princess Yucheng had a cold face, took out a silver feather from her sleeve and handed it to Su Qinchao.

He had seen this kind of feather on Qi Min before. It was a unique token of a secret agent. Not only was the name of the person it belonged to engraved on it, but also the area that the agent was investigating.

"This is what we found on Li Ji!" Almost every county government has secret agents stationed there.

The owner of this one was a horse herder in his sixties who had never made a mistake over the years, but after the Fu Feng incident was exposed.

She sent someone to check and found out that the groom had not returned to the county government office for several days. The person on standby went to his house to look for him, but he was nowhere to be found.

According to his family, this horse herder would live directly in the county government office when winter came in previous years and would not go home unless there was something important.

Therefore, they did not see the horse herder this year and did not notice anything wrong until someone came to find them this time, and then they knew that something had happened to the horse herder.

However, when Li Ji was interrogated last night, he said that he had accidentally picked up this feather in a ditch in the backyard of the county government office half a month ago.

However, he didn't know what this thing was, he just felt it was very special, so he kept it close to him.

"It is clear that five days ago, I received a letter from this secret agent and saw the token with my own eyes." Princess Yucheng frowned.

At this point, the matter became complicated. She couldn't help but wonder, was there only one, or were there two identical ones?

You should know that in order to prevent counterfeiting, each token is forged individually according to real feathers and secretly ordered by the Ministry of Industry.

The fine lines on it are all unique. If you want to imitate it, you can't succeed unless you find the original feather.

But if that was the case, how did that person sneak into the Ministry of Works and find the secretly hidden original feather?

If not, who was the person who was able to steal the feather from Li Ji without anyone noticing five days ago and come to the princess's mansion with the face of the groom?

All these things mixed together were like a ball of wool that kept getting bigger and bigger with no ends, making her thoughts extremely confused.

Princess Yucheng told Su Qinchao all these things one by one. One of the reasons was that Li Ji had a past relationship with him.

Secondly, Lu Yong went to Japan, and now that there was a problem with the secret investigation, she had to avoid the people around her to avoid making her already confused thoughts even more confused.

So Princess Yucheng thought about it and finally thought of Su Qinchao.

Su Qinchao has a special identity and is tight-lipped. Telling him something will not cause any impact. Who knows, there may be some unexpected gains.

"Maybe things aren't that bad." Su Qinchao thought about it, and after a little consideration, he carefully said another possibility:

"In my humble opinion, some things can be done well by an insignificant person as long as they are well planned and linked together."

He is an ordinary person, so he naturally thinks the same things that ordinary people would think, and what he sees is not as complicated as Princess Yucheng's.

As a person in a higher position, Princess Yucheng has experienced too many twists and turns in her daily life and is accustomed to complicating everything.

"What do you mean?" Princess Yucheng raised her eyebrows.

"For example, a horse herder can be a spy all year round and be content with this identity. He doesn't necessarily have to be an excellent martial artist, right?" Su Qinchao asked tentatively.

"That's right, that's why we let them stay where they are all year round to do their work, to supervise the people in the government office and to deliver messages smoothly." Princess Yucheng nodded and continued to wait for his next words.

"Over the years, the groom has grown old, and his legs and feet are not as agile as before. Isn't it easy for him to be -" Su Qin gestured towards his neck:

"If someone wants to do it, it's not impossible. You also said that the man can disguise himself. If he disguises himself as someone close to Li Ji, it will be easy for him to get the token and hide his tracks?"

"You mean~" Princess Yucheng's eyes narrowed, and then she snapped her fingers.

In just a moment, before Su Qinchao could react, he saw a very ordinary-looking man half-kneeling in front of Princess Yucheng.

"Go and check the other people in the county government office."

"Yes!"

...

In the afternoon, before Su Qinchao finished his shift, Princess Yucheng sent someone to pass on the message.

She said that she had found some clues, so when he was off duty, she asked him to go to Tianlao to bring Li Ji and go to Wannian County with her for a thorough investigation.

Princess Yucheng asked him to go to the Heavenly Prison to bring Li Ji. He knew that Princess Yucheng wanted to do him a favor, so he was naturally willing to do it.

Wannian County Government

"I didn't expect you to guess it right!" Princess Yucheng sat under the plaque of Zhengda Guangming and pointed at the woman who was tied up tightly in the hall.

"It's just that the princess has too many things to worry about every day, and her thoughts were too complicated at the moment, so I was lucky enough to get lucky." Su Qinchao nodded.

This woman had the face of Mrs. Li Ji, was dressed in plain silk, had curved eyebrows and eyes, and looked very gentle.

If it weren't for the fact that her right face was torn open, revealing her extremely pale skin.

No one would know that she was the disguised person lurking in the backyard of the county government office, including Li Ji who lay in bed with her every night!

It turned out that this woman was a disciple of the Wanhua Sect in the martial arts world, her name was Wuhen. Some time ago, someone came to her house and asked her to take an order.

Seeing the generous reward, she took the risk and did this job. Her original mission was just to steal the feather and disguise herself as a horseman to temporarily deliver a letter to the princess's mansion.

But later, after being the wife of the county magistrate for two days, she didn't want to leave after enjoying the delicious food and drinks all day long.

With a determined heart, he hid her temporarily in the cellar. Li Ji's wife slit her throat and buried her in the backyard just like the stable boy.

But she didn't expect the truth to be revealed. She originally thought that she had drugged Li Ji's youngest son.

I managed to get away by pretending to be taking care of a child, but I was still discovered unexpectedly.
