 It was I who proved Gu Qingyun's innocence and released the fake Gu Qingyun from the prison in Hejing County; country; it was him who caused the Liangzhou defenders to encounter the Huren Zuoyu Wangbu who had brand new weapons; it was him who made the people of Qinchuan lose their relatives... Thinking of this,

Chu Xiaoyun couldn't forgive himself at all. He slammed his fist on the stone wall beside him, and said in pain, "I am the one who failed the people of Qinchuan, the soldiers of Liangzhou and General Ding..."

The blood poured down, Wang Sanqiang exclaimed, and went up She wanted to bandage him before, but Chu Xiaoyun refused.

The sky seemed to match his state of mind at this time, and the downpour came quietly. Wang Sanqiang stepped forward to hand the umbrella again, but was also brushed away by Chu Xiaoyun; Xie Xun held up the umbrella and wanted to walk with him, but was also rejected. Chu Xiaoyun was walking alone in the wind and rain. Wang Sanqiang wanted to catch up with him while holding an umbrella. Xie Xun said, "Let him be quiet. Although he is not wrong according to the law, he might feel better this way." Wang Sanqiang was

puzzled Withdrew his steps.

Chu Xiaoyun walked aimlessly. A group of people appeared on the opposite side under the rain curtain. Although the leader did not have a canopy, but the person next to him held an ordinary crimson umbrella, but he was majestic and inviolable.

Chu Xiaoyun raised his head, saw the person coming from the opposite side, and couldn't help but be astonished.

"Your Majesty, Your Majesty..."

Jie Xun and others who had been following behind him also stepped forward quickly, knelt down and saluted: "Your Majesty, I will kowtow to Your Majesty!"

Wang Sanqiang who followed him and a group of arresters from Hejing County met the prefect of Qingzhou There are not many people here. I have never seen the emperor before. When I heard this address, I was so scared that I hurriedly knelt down to salute.

Hearing the voice of Jie Xun and the others, Chu Xiaoyun regained consciousness and hurriedly saluted.

The emperor looked down at Chu Xiaoyun who was hit hard: "Does the Chu Qing family feel uncomfortable? Do you think you have to bear a lot of responsibility for all this? Do you think you should atone for the people of Qinchuan? But look at you As it is now, this is your way of repentance and redemption? Can you save the lives of the soldiers, or can you exchange their relatives? If you really feel ashamed of the people of Qinchuan, then stand up and raise your head , Dig three feet into the ground, find the instigator, and cut off all his passages. Only in this way, can we be worthy of the sacrifice of the Liangzhou defenders and the dedication of the people of Qinchuan!" The emperor's words were like a slap in the face, and Chu

Xiaoyun came to his senses. He still has a lot to do, and guilt and self-pity can't solve any problems. Only by finding out the true identity of that fake Gu Qingyun, can the following matters be easily resolved, and the Liangzhou defenders will not sacrifice in vain.

"I know I was wrong!" Chu Xiaoyun said resolutely, brushing the rain off his face.

"It's good to know you're wrong, then hurry up and handle the case!" A playful voice came from the emperor's side.

Chu Xiaoyun looked up in astonishment, and it turned out to be Fang Linghui.

The emperor also smiled plainly and said, "Let's all get flat."

Everyone got up. Fang Linghui looked at Chu Xiaoyun and smiled: "Why is Catcher Chu looking at me in disbelief? I also want to thank you for your letter of recommendation. His Majesty the Emperor will only allow me to accompany me out of the palace this time.

" He took out a hairpin from his sleeve: "This hairpin, the Equipment Bureau has found the secret in it, Master Wei asked me to bring it to you."

After a pause, he said slyly: "Of course there is another thing, wait for me to have it. I'll give it to you when I'm free."

Back in the capital, Fang Linghui found Chu Xiaoyun and wanted to accompany her out of the palace. Later, when the incident happened suddenly, Chu Xiaoyun didn't have time to inform Fang Linghui to go with her, but she also wrote a letter stating Fang Linghui's The resourcefulness was submitted by Wei to Fang Linghui.

Fang Linghui also relied on that letter to persuade the Queen Mother and the Emperor to leave the palace. The Fang family found out afterwards that it was of no avail. Chu Xiaoyun took the hairpin, and before he had time to ask the hairpin's secret, the emperor

said straightly, "This is not a good place to talk, let's talk about it in the hotel."

He lived in the hotel where Qinchuan received officials, but sent some extra troops to guard him.

The heavy rain was pouring, and the group returned to Qin Chuan's hotel wet. Naturally, they had to wash and change their clothes first, tidy up and refresh themselves, and then performed the rituals of monarchs and ministers. After all the ceremony, Chu Xiaoyun asked Fang Linghui: "What's the secret of this hairpin?"

Fang Linghui opened the head of the hairpin and showed it to Chu Xiaoyun: "The inside of this hairpin looks like a pattern, but it's not a pattern. , but a map. The people from the Equipment Bureau have already expanded the lines in the hairpin and expanded it."

As she spoke, Fang Linghui took out two pieces of paper, one large and one small, from the kit she carried with her. One is the original manuscript drawn from the inner wall of the hairpin, and the other is the enlarged drawing.

Chu Xiaoyun carefully looked at the two drawings, and it was indeed a map. And this map not only points to a place, but also draws the internal structure of this place. After just looking at it for a long time, Chu Xiaoyun found that the map was not very complete and could not see the complete directions.

Fang Linghui said: "Chu Butou, your feeling is correct. The map in this hairpin is incomplete, only half of it. It doesn't seem right either, it should be half of each of the two maps." Chu Xiaoyun was anxious after hearing

this Said: "Is there still half?"

Fang Linghui shook her head: "I don't know about that. Now we only have this half of the picture, and the rest depends on the brothers from the Six Doors and Chu Butou. "

Chu Xiaoyun remembered the origin of this hairpin. After Zhang Cheng's death, Pei Jin, the housekeeper of Zhang's family, was implicated in the case of Wei Tang's death, and Wei Tang's death was inseparably related to that fake Gu Qingyun. Unexpectedly, after many twists and turns, all things are finally connected together.

It turned out that Zhang Cheng was also in contact with that fake Gu Qingyun.

Chu Xiaoyun really didn't expect Zhang Cheng to have such a secret. Now that he has figured out this important relic left by Zhang Cheng, he may be able to get a glimpse of the real identity of the fake Gu Qingyun and unravel the mystery of the fake Gu Qingyun.

The emperor came to Qinchuan this time to appease the people of Qinchuan. Xie Xun was originally ordered to come here, and now he happened to accompany him; the clues to the case came back to Hejing County, so naturally Chu Xiaoyun should take up the heavy responsibility. Chu Xiaoyun held half a map and the hairpin, no matter how hard he thought about it, he couldn't understand it.

He thought about it, Zhang Cheng was from Hejing County, and he also died in Hejing County, so this matter might have to go back to Hejing County to resolve it. Besides, there are also his good partner Yu He and Master Wei who guides him everywhere.

After making a decision, Chu Xiaoyun was going to find an opportunity to bid farewell to the emperor. Then, he wanted to ask Fang Linghui about Su Wen and the child. Before the emperor was there, it was not easy for him to inquire about family matters.

Before the emperor came back from his inspection, Fang Linghui knocked on the door of Chu Xiaoyun's room first.

"Miss Fang." Chu Xiaoyun said pleasantly, "I was about to find you, but I didn't expect you to come first."

Fang Linghui smiled and said, "Do you want to inquire about Su Wen and Xiao Shuyu, or are you just thinking about it?" Another thing I brought?"

Chu Xiaoyun giggled a few times.

"The two of them are doing well in the palace. They are protected by the queen mother, and my mother visits the palace from time to time, so don't worry." Fang Linghui took out a worn thimble and handed it to Chu Xiaoyun, "Su Wen asked I passed it to you, so you don't think too much about them, when the case is solved, the family will be reunited."

"However, I still don't understand. It's not good for Su Wen to bring you some tokens. This thimble is too old. Does it have any special meaning?" Chu Xiaoyun took the thimble and smiled: "Thank you, Miss Fang, for conveying the message.

" "

He really didn't think about what Fang Linghui brought him, but he didn't expect Su Wen to entrust her to bring it. What a pleasant surprise.

After Fang Linghui left, Chu Xiaoyun stroked the thimble. The thimble was remodeled from a finger pull Su Wen picked up on the road when he was released from prison when he had just worn it. Later, when he had money, he wanted to change it for Su Wen, but Su Wen said that he would use the old one first if he got used to it. This thimble can be said to have witnessed the ups and downs they have experienced since they were together. Su Wen asked Fang Linghui to bring him this thimble that witnessed their relationship, in order to let him feel at ease in his work and to remember their friendship.

Chu Xiaoyun stroked the thimble, Su Wen really knew what he wanted.

The modified thimble turned out to be too old, and some places started to curl. Although Su Wen no longer used it for needlework, Chu Xiaoyun still planned to repair the thimble that witnessed their feelings. When he was trying to straighten out the curly copper wall, he accidentally found a thimble, um, originally it was the inner wall of the finger, which seemed to have some uneven lines.

The matter of the hairpin inspired Chu Xiaoyun. With an idea, he cut open the finger with a tool, and unfolded it carefully. The uneven lines on the inner wall of the finger actually formed a picture, and it was also a map. Chu Xiaoyun's heart almost jumped out of his throat.

He immediately found Fang Linghui and delivered the original commission. While Fang Linghui was surprised, she hurriedly recruited the accompanying artisans from the Equipment Bureau. The craftsman quickly expanded the map on the finger ring and expanded it to the same size as the previous map on the hairpin.

The two maps are completely spliced ​​together.

This discovery surprised Chu Xiaoyun. When the emperor and his party who went out to inspect returned, Chu Xiaoyun hurriedly reported the discovery.

"There is such a coincidence." The emperor couldn't believe it.

"Report to the emperor. This finger was picked up by my wife on the road leading to the bank of the Red River in the humble family. At that time, Zhang Cheng was deceived by thieves, who killed him and blamed me. It must be that Zhang Cheng was killed. The past left there." Chu Xiaoyun told the past one by one.

"It seems that this is also God's will. Everything will be revealed after all." The emperor sighed, "Zhang Cheng is from Hejing County, and you are also a local. Can you see where this map refers?" "Report to Your

Majesty , It was hard to guess the half of the map before, but now that the map is complete, I can already see the place drawn in this map. This half of the outdoor map should be the Fangchuan Waterway Labyrinth in Fangchuan County; this half of the indoor map, if I didn't guess If it is wrong, it should be the interior of this labyrinth. Unexpectedly, there is an underground city buried in the Fangchuan waterway that people have been rumored to be miraculous." Chu Xiaoyun told him all he knew, "But there is still a lot to do when you pull your fingers up and down. I don't know the meaning of a part of the pattern."

He had dealt with Fangchuan Shuidao many times, and after the two halves of the map were stitched together, Chu Xiaoyun recognized the place drawn on the map at a glance.

"If that's the case, then you set off immediately. After returning to Hejing County and reporting to Lord Wei Jinghan, go to the Fangchuan Waterway and open the underground palace." The emperor said and looked at Jie Xun beside him, "Let Jie Xun go with him If you have any news, please send me a message."

"Yes, I will obey your orders." Xie Xun, Chu Xiaoyun and others said in unison.

"Uh, there's me, and me, I'll go too." Fang Linghui yelled anxiously, "If I hadn't brought Mrs. Su Wen's thimble, the answer to this mystery wouldn't be so easy to finally solve.

" Remembering that the emperor was on the sidelines, he stuck out his tongue embarrassingly, and confessed to the emperor: "My daughter lost her composure, please punish me." The emperor shook his head helplessly: "You, I don't know what kind of temper you are. That's fine

. , ready to play!"

Fang Linghui was overjoyed upon hearing the words: "Thank you, Your Majesty!"
