Chapter 763 Suspected
After chatting about Wang Jian's personal affairs for a while, Shen Hao asked about the matter that Wang Jian asked Heishui to find someone before, and wondered if there was any clue after so many days.
The smile on Wang Jian's face quickly turned into a wry smile, and he shook his head and said, "My lord, our spies have searched all over the imperial city, but anyone who goes in and out of the yamen can't escape their eyes, but none of them is as good as King Jin." Yang Wenguang hung the portrait."
"Where are the guards? Did you find them?"
"I found it, but the guards are under martial law during this period, and most of them are ordered not to leave the camp. All they can see are the ranks above the school order, and the general soldiers see very little. They can only follow the city wall. They lined up to look for them, but so far they haven't found the person you mentioned."
What else could Wang Jian do but smile wryly? Find a needle in a haystack! And there hasn't even been a trace these days, and I thought to myself that I probably couldn't find it.
Shen Hao is not too hopeful. After all, after he narrowed the scope, it still involves a lot of people, and the other party's possible cover-up. It is still very difficult to rely on most of the naked-eyed mortal spies in Heishui to get rid of the other party's deception. hard. The most important thing is that Shen Hao himself is not sure whether Yang Wenguang has such a son in the imperial city, and everything is just his guess at present.
"This matter is not urgent. You can look for it slowly. It is not a death order. But you must not be careless. Every qualified person must be carefully screened, and no possibility should be missed. Understand?"
"Don't worry, my lord, my subordinates have been investigating according to your requirements. But anyone who meets the requirements will be approached secretly with a magic plate and then try to see if the other party is covered by a magic weapon. But there is still no gain, but..." Halfway through the sentence , Wang Jian suddenly stopped, as if he hesitated suddenly in the next words.
Shen Hao asked curiously, "What's wrong?"
"My lord, the spies of the imperial city actually sent back a suspected person. The conditions are in line with your screening in all aspects, but the appearance cannot be confirmed. In addition, the identity is a bit too high, so the subordinates did not know it for a while. Immediately."
"Can't be sure about the appearance? Is the appearance covered by the magic weapon or is it disguised?" Shen Hao was a little surprised, and leaned forward slightly. Anyone who meets the conditions and has not been excluded can be suspicious. As for identity, that is something that needs to be considered later.
"It is true that he has a magic weapon to conceal his appearance, but...he didn't hide it, he just wore it on his face so brightly."
"Huh?" Bright on the face? Shen Hao was a little puzzled, what does this mean? Who can blatantly cover up his appearance without being afraid of being suspected? So he asked, "Who?"
"Returning to my lord, it is Xue Gui, the head of the Department of Major Cases of the Ministry of Criminal Justice." Wang Jian smiled embarrassingly. Anyway, he thought it was a coincidence, but at the same time he thought it was impossible. It's just that his long-term engagement in intelligence affairs made him instinctively unable to ignore any eligible targets. Even if this goal is rationally impossible.
"Xue Gui?" Shen Hao was taken aback for a moment, then laughed, it was really an inappropriate coincidence, how could Xue Gui...
The "Isn't this a coincidence" expression on Shen Hao's face gradually subsided, his brows were also slightly frowned, and he suddenly pondered in his heart: Why can't Xue Gui have some unknown connection with Jin Wang Yang Wenguang?
His identity is in line with Shen Hao's "inside the system" requirements, and because what he sees and hears in a high position in the Ministry of Punishment can definitely involve some power tricks of the senior Jingjiu Dynasty, and he must be well aware of the institutional settings of the country's top and bottom. .
Age, according to the fluctuation of the soul, Xue Gui's real age should be about the same as Shou Wang, and it also meets Shen Hao's previous screening conditions.
Finally, and the most crucial point, Xue Gui wears a mask all year round! It is said that Xue Gui wore a mask to cover it up because of the ugly birthmark on Xue Gui's face. At the same time, this mask is also a magic weapon, and it is said that it has some kind of ability that can be used as a booster in battle.
Since Xue Gui satisfies these three conditions, he is highly suspected. How could he just think it was a coincidence just because he is now in a high position in the Ministry of Punishment and let go of his investigation?
Shen Hao reflected in his heart for a moment, and then said: "What's the meaning of this matter?"
"Didn't you say to be more cautious? So the fourth part did not participate in the analysis."
"Add them in, and start to search Xue Gui in a targeted manner. From daily life to daily behavior, you can find out as much as you can. In addition, build a detailed record of all the people he often contacts and the places he frequents. Investigate. I will go to the Commander's Yamen later to see if I can find Xue Gui's personal file, and if I can find it, I will rub a copy for you."
Seeing Shen Hao's serious words, Wang Jian's heart tightened suddenly, and he nodded quickly. I understand that Master Shen is eyeing Xue Gui!
Although Wang Jian didn't ask much before, he was clear in his heart. He knew that the person Shen Haorang was looking for should also be a disciple of the royal family, and he might even be the heir of King Jin, otherwise he wouldn't use the appearance of King Jin as a reference.
And what are the heirs of King Jin doing in hiding? What kind of conspiracy is there, Wang Jian also deduced it in his mind following Mr. Shen's thinking, but he was frightened into a cold sweat. So now he pretends not to know, and does what he is told, for fear of asking more questions and causing trouble.
Wang Jian led the order, knowing that this matter could not be delayed, and the earlier the spies could focus on the highly suspected target, the earlier they could pay attention. Maybe it was just such a slight time window that they could discover or miss something. some key details.
As soon as Wang Jian left, Shen Hao followed him out of the public house, and he was going to the imperial city. Originally, in the afternoon, Tang Qingyuan and Chen Sheng were going to come together to discuss the specific implementation strategy of the commanding yamen against evil monks and evil spirits, but now it seems that they can only let it go for now. The most important thing at present is to clarify Xue Gui's identity.
Fortunately, the commander's yamen has a complete set of special documents, thanks to Pang Ban's consistent strength and the emperor's support. Therefore, the personal copybooks of all officials of the fourth grade and above in the court are in the commander's office. Of course, they are all rubbings, and Pang Ban's personal instructions are required to read them.
Pang Ban has always agreed to Shen Hao's request, even why Cha Xuegui didn't ask. Perhaps from Pang Ban's point of view, Xue Gui and Shen Hao had an affair, and Shen Hao checked his family's details and estimated that he was preparing for revenge, but he still didn't stop him.
In the evening of that day, Shen Haocai returned to Fengri City from the commander's office.
As soon as he came out of the teleportation circle, he stepped into the water with one foot.
The temperature in the imperial city remained high for days, but the Fengri city was raining continuously. Shen Hao seemed to be in two worlds.
Looking at the rain curtain outside and the gloomy sky above, Shen Hao felt the same about this matter.
