Chapter 81
"Sir, I'm afraid it's not convenient for a married woman like me. I remembered that Brother Li from the escort agency was with me at that time. It would be best for him to recognize people. Besides, he has traveled all over the country for so many years, and his ability to recognize people must be better than mine... What do you think, sir?" Ye Xi was talking excitedly when she found that the other party, who had a gentle expression before, suddenly became expressionless. Ye Xi's heart skipped a beat, and she felt that the other party's aura had become a lot colder. The words she hadn't finished saying disappeared on her lips, and then she held back the last half of the sentence.
"This idea is very good. I wonder if the other party can come to the yamen at 9:00 p.m. tomorrow?" Wei Jue became the same as before, and the feeling just now seemed to be Ye Xi's illusion.
"Well, I'm afraid that won't work. Brother Li and the others have already returned to Suzhou City. Can you give us a few days?" Ye Xi didn't expect that he would be so anxious. It would take at least three days to find someone here and then pick him up on horseback.
"We spent a lot of effort to catch the people, and the interrogation also took a lot of time. If we delay any further, the fact that they were arrested will be exposed. By then, even if we find their lair, we won't be able to catch anyone else. So speed is of the essence. If I hadn't met Madam here, I would not have thought of this method. It's really a light at the end of the tunnel." Wei Jue looked at Ye Xi with his bright eyes.
Ye Xi thought about it. Almost none of Brother Li and his men could do it. Only she and Chuntao were left. She thought about Chuntao's courage and thought she couldn't count on her. She had done a good job in arranging Ah Shan's affairs recently, but she had to explain everything in detail. Chuntao's cleverness was not as good as Ah Shan's, but there was no one else around her who could be used.
"Well, I'll go there, but my identity..."
"Don't worry, ma'am. You can disguise yourself and wear a veil and hat. We will help you hide your identity. You just need to go and recognize the person." Wei Jue understood that she was worried that her identity would be exposed and cause unnecessary trouble.
"Okay, thank you sir."
Ye Xi thanked him, but she was thinking, didn't he ask her for help? Why should she thank him?
"It is my wife who should be thanked. I will have someone pick her up at the gate tomorrow at 9:00 p.m."
When Ye Xi agreed and wanted to leave, Wei Jue did not stop her, but told her his name before leaving. Ye Xi then realized that the person in front of her was Wei Jue, and her first reaction was: Another guy with a strange name, first it sounds like "Yang Jian", then it sounds like "Taste", were the ancient people so careless in naming?
After returning, she mentioned this matter to Chuntao and asked Chuntao to accompany her. The next day, Ye Xi and Chuntao went out together. Ye Xi first found an inn, booked a room and waited inside. Chuntao went to the clothing store and bought a set of coarse clothes and a veil hat. Ye Xi put on the coarse clothes, covered her face and left wearing a veil hat. Chuntao did not change her clothes. After Ye Xi left, she checked out and left. She went to another inn, booked another room and waited inside.
After Ye Xi arrived at the government office, she found Xue Jiu waiting for her outside the gate. She didn't expect that the person Wei Jue arranged was actually Xue Jiu, whom she knew, which instantly solved her trouble of finding someone.
Xue Jiu heaved a sigh of relief when he saw someone coming. He was a little worried that the young lady would change her mind at the last minute, so he took her into the yamen without any nonsense. Along the way, Ye Xi looked at the layout of the yamen. The interior was solemn and dignified, and the front hall was silent, giving people a sense of sacredness with the majesty of the family and the country.
