Chapter 302 Lost Again



The most useless procedure is self-reporting.

The Jingzhao Yin required all the village heads in Kyoto to report the population of girls aged 16 to 17 and boys aged 14 in the streets and blocks under their jurisdiction, and to pay special attention to the new population and residents who had increased in the past three years.

The usual practice of each village head is to ask each household to report themselves. The village heads will bring paper, ink and pen to each household to ask questions and make a registration based on the names and ages of the people reported by each household.

Go back and compare it with the original registration book in your jurisdiction, and mark any errors, omissions or additions in a timely manner.

Because this step relies almost entirely on self-reporting and self-reporting by each household, the possibility of various deviations is very high.

If a family hides someone and wants to conceal it intentionally, it may not be easy for them to do so in a small household with neighbors watching and listening.

However, if some wealthy people in Kyoto intend to hide one or two people, then this self-reporting process is almost useless and cannot be traced. It is just a formality.

But this time, the village head knocked on the door of Prince Xuanyuan Huaiyu's mansion and explained his purpose. Naturally, the servants would report this to the housekeeper.

The housekeeper invited the headman in for tea and copied the names of all the servants in the mansion who met the requirements to the headman.

In the first list of people who met the age requirements collected by Jingzhao Yin, the two in Xuanyuan Huaiyu Palace were undoubtedly particularly eye-catching.

Because the time they appeared in the palace was too consistent.

The approximate time of death of the family of four, as currently inferred based on the skeletons and clothing, and the time when their neighbors last saw them, is not much different from the time when the two children appeared as servants in the palace.

So the people from the Jingzhao Yin Police Station came to the house again. After all, the two children were young, and the experienced constables did not take much time to get them to admit their identities.

The two children worked as servants in Xuanyuan Huaiyu's mansion and had no idea that in the bag their father Qian Fucheng left them, in addition to all his private accounts, vouchers, and important correspondence evidence from his years as a black accountant, there was also a huge fortune.

Qian Fucheng is actually not his real name. This is a fake identity he bought for himself. Of course, it is the most expensive one, the one that can be used seriously.

His parents were also fake identities. He then married and had children. His wife didn't know his name was not Qian Fucheng until her death.

His name was Yu Dehai. He used to work as an accountant for a gangster boss, who later died in a gang fight.

Yu Dehai suddenly had an idea and did not hand over the wealth to his eldest brother's wife and children. Instead, he quietly took it for himself and left with a clear mind.

But this big brother has two loyal younger brothers, who have been searching for Yu Dehai tirelessly for many years.

Just as they found a clue, the man was killed and disappeared again. The two brothers kept watching Jingzhao Yin's progress in investigating the case until the skeletons of Qian Fucheng's family of four were found. Then the two brothers turned their attention to Jingzhao Yin's people investigating the two children.

When the police came to question the two children, the two younger brothers also quietly led people to follow.

The people from Jingzhao Yin had just entered when the two younger brothers pretended to be from the police station and knocked on the door of Prince Xuanyuan Huaiyu's mansion again.

The servant who answered the door felt a little strange. Didn't they just come in? Why is there another group coming?

Just as he was about to ask, the two younger brothers wiped his neck.

The two younger brothers brought their men into the palace.

The two children had just admitted their identities to the police, who were about to take them away from the palace to Jingzhao Yin to make a formal confession.

The two children's residences and other places they usually visited would also need to be searched, and perhaps other servants would also need to be questioned. The police felt that they had to at least greet the master of this palace.

So, led by a servant, the Jingzhao Yin's men took the two children to the main courtyard.

Behind them, two younger brothers and some people followed closely.

The servants in the palace thought these people were the plainclothes team of Jingzhao Yin, while the police thought these people were the palace guards.

Xuanyuan Huaiyu was standing in the yard, and Princess Ye Qiu was holding a cloak she had made for him to try on.

It is double-sided, one side is made of material that changes color gradually under sunlight, and the other side is fox fur. Ye Qiu called him out to see the effect of wearing it in sunlight.

Ye Qiu sincerely admired: "The prince is actually quite good-looking."

Xuanyuan Huaiyu was a little absent-minded because the cloak reminded him of something he was worried about, and he was very angry when he heard this.

I have been known as a handsome young man since I was a teenager. When did my appearance become so reluctant?

Drawing on their understanding of each other over the past two and a half years, Xuanyuan Huaiyu raised an eyebrow and looked at her: "Do you want to brag about the cloak you made?"

Sure enough, Ye Qiu said, "Clothes make the man, and saddles make the horse. My cloak is still the best." almost at the same time.

Almost at the same time, the two younger brothers were exposed. The guards felt a little strange and asked the people in the Jingzhao Yin police station: "Are these your men?"

When the police officers looked back, the two younger brothers realized that they would be exposed in the next moment, and the person in front of them should be the real owner of the house.

The two younger brothers actually just wanted to find the money and send it to their eldest brother's widow and children. They were originally following the clues to keep an eye on the two children, but they never expected to be exposed.

In this case, we should capture the king first. As long as we take the prince hostage, others will be cautious. Maybe we and our people still have a chance of survival.

Years of living on the edge of a knife have made the two younger brothers extremely sharp and in tune with each other, so they both jumped up in an instant and swung their swords at Xuanyuan Huaiyu.

Ye Qiu, who was beside him, felt that his body was not listening to his commands.

She didn't understand why she subconsciously took a step forward, just standing in front of Xuanyuan Huaiyu.

The sword pierced straight into Ye Qiu's body. When Ye Qiu fell down, Xuanyuan Huaiyu hugged her and her blood gushed out.

At this moment, panic and anger were overwhelming, and he didn't want to lose again.

Ye Qiu felt a piercing pain. What had he done? The blood had stained Xuanyuan Huaiyu's clothes and brand new cloak. What a shame. He had put so much effort into this, for Concubine Chen to see. Don't blame me for wanting a child...

Life is pretty good now, and spending money is easy. Because I live so comfortably, I don't want to change. I just want to please this man. If the storm of infertility or even virginity comes, can he withstand it...

Her consciousness was a little confused, and she looked at him blankly. She had to admit that this man was really handsome.

However, before Ye Qiu finally passed out, she saw her parents, brother, and... He Qing

The first time I met He Qing was at the Duke of Xiangguo's mansion. He and his father strode in with great energy...

Ye Qiu didn't know if it was too painful, tears fell: "There are always regrets in life..."
