Ning Wanyin summoned Wang Yuchu.

After several days of interrogation, he was covered in blood, but he insisted that he was Shufei's man.

Ning Wanyin handed him the box of silk flowers and ropes:

"Is this for your daughter?"

It's a question, but it's in an affirmative tone.

Wang Yuchu was terrified. He knew that he had done something that would lead to the death of his entire clan, but he only had one daughter left, and on the surface, she was already dead...

As long as they can't find that my daughter is still alive, then she will be fine.

"I miss my daughter... My daughter died of illness, I... I can only buy some hair flowers for my daughter..." Wang Yuchu explained reluctantly.

Ning Wanyin stared at him and said, "If you can confess, I can ask His Majesty to pardon your daughter."

After a pause, Ning Wanyin reminded, "I can help you find your daughter. You should consider whether others will treat her well after you die."

Wang Yuchu was shocked. He didn't expect that his secret would be discovered.

His daughter was indeed not dead.

But he was caught by Concubine Jing!

It was for this reason that he was forced to obey Concubine Jing and work for her.

He naturally knew in his heart that once he died, his daughter would be of no use to Concubine Jing.

He could only hope that Concubine Jing would give her daughter a good end because he did not betray her.

But who can feel at ease leaving their daughter's life in the hands of such a man?

It’s just that Wang Yuchu had no choice before.

If he doesn't follow Concubine Jing's instructions, his daughter will die!

"You can't find her..." Wang Yuchu felt a glimmer of hope in his heart, but he couldn't believe it.

He has never given up looking for his daughter over the years.

In order to let him know that his daughter was still alive, Concubine Jing let him see his daughter once a year...

He once wanted to ask his daughter where she lived, find a chance to rescue her, and then they would leave quietly, away from the capital.

However, it cannot be found.

"You can't find it, but our queen will definitely find it." Xiao Xia Zi was full of confidence.

Lian Rui also nodded, "That's right, you just need to tell the truth, and the queen will naturally save your daughter."

Wang Yuchu was also well aware of the title of the Imperial Concubine.

If Concubine Jing wasn't afraid of her, why would she use an outsider like him to do it? She was just afraid that the case would be traced back to her.

He thought about it, and the imperial concubine went to ask His Majesty to pardon his daughter.

With the clear pardon from the court, no one would lay a hand on her daughter again, otherwise it would be tantamount to disobeying the emperor's order.

Then he could be sure that his daughter could at least survive.

If he remains in Jingpin's hands, his life or death will all depend on Jingpin's conscience.

Wang Yuchu kowtowed three times to Ning Wanyin, "If the imperial concubine can find my daughter, I will tell you everything I know."

If he can't find it, he will naturally confess nothing in order to save his daughter's life.

"When was the last time you saw your daughter?" Ning Wanyin asked straight to the point.

Ning Wanyin speculated that he had a chance to see the hostage. Otherwise, how could he be sure that his daughter was still alive?

This left some clues.

"Last March, my daughter said she lived in a big yard. She didn't know where she was and had never left the yard. Every time she met me, they gave her sleeping tea, and when she woke up, she was in our home..." Wang Yuchu said, shedding tears.

"How long did it take for her to wake up from falling asleep?"

"About one day." Wang Yuchu replied.

"What flowers are there in the yard where she lives? Did she mention the weather? What does she eat on a daily basis? What do the people who are responsible for guarding her eat?" Ning Wanyin asked a series of questions.

Every time Wang Yuchu sees his daughter, he can't help but ask her many questions.

How was the food? Did they mistreat you?

In order to find out where she lived, he also inquired about the news of the courtyard.

only……

His daughter knew very little, and in Wang Yuchu's eyes, it was all useless information...

Half an hour later.

Ning Wanyin gave Lian Rui an order, "Check all the towns within a day's journey from the Summer Resort. There are wine shops in those towns that sell peach blossom wine. There are snack shops that sell square cakes..."

The guards usually drank peach blossom wine, and their snack was square cake.

These are common snacks and drinks, but they can also rule out a small number of towns that don't have them.

"You often see wild geese flying by. Check their migration routes..."

“Look up the towns that had a lot of rain last February.”

This is what Wang Yuchu's daughter can see in the four-cornered sky.

She had seen wild geese flying south and continuous spring rain, and she mentioned this casually while chatting with Wang Yuchu.

For Ning Wanyin, these are all crucial clues.

"The slaves who carry water for washing clothes come and go quickly, and there is a river in the town."

"The firewood is pine, and there are wild pine forests near the town."

"The courtyard is planted with green bamboos. It is a courtyard with green bamboos."

…

Ning Wanyin passed down instructions one by one based on the fragments of clues she had found.

The Criminal Justice Department and the Guardian Department both became busy.

There are many towns that can be covered in a one-day itinerary, but many of them can be eliminated because they have to meet a series of conditions such as continuous rain in February, goose migration routes, rivers in the city, pine forests, etc.

At dusk, after layer upon layer of investigation, two towns were locked down.

Ning Wanyin immediately went to see Helian Qi and reported the whole story.

Helian Qi's eyes were deep, he had always been suspicious of Concubine Jing.

And now Wang Yuchu's daughter has been arrested...
