Huo Qingxiu said, pulled out an envelope from his arms and handed it to Xie Jingyi.

Xie Jingyi took it and saw a black feather lying miserably inside, just a little more abundant than the previous one. The fluff was falling off and it was everywhere. This hair should belong to an insignificant little person.

In addition to the black feather, there is also a thin piece of paper. Although it is very thin, the red ink can almost penetrate the back of the paper. Compared with the feathers, this is the key.

Xie Jingyi opened it and looked at it, and she was immediately happy. She rose from the last one from a ninth-rank small official to a ninth-rank sesame official.

Compared to ordinary officials who have a senior year, they have fixed promotion assessments every year, and it is much easier to get promoted to the Black Feather Guard.

She thought, looked at Manager Zhao, and Manager Zhao nodded happily.

He has been in the Black Feather Guard for many years, but Xie Jingyi doesn't know what grade he is and why he works under Huo Qingxiu.

Huo Qingxiu paused. I was wrong with the last task. It was supposed to be a great achievement, but I messed up. I am really sorry to both of you.

He said, bowing to Xie Jingyi and Manager Zhao.

Manager Zhao suddenly became at a loss and rushed over and helped Huo Qingxiu up. What are you doing? No one expected what happened next. Who knew that the assassin was so cruel, he didn't even say he killed himself, but he also slandered people! Or maybe it was that Mianmian

In short, no wonder you. Thank you San, I'm right!

Xie Jingyi glanced at Huo Qingxiu, that's right.

Huo Qingxiu raised his head, looked at Xie Jingyi, and pursed her lips when she saw her expression as usual.

Manager Zhao breathed a sigh of relief. He was just a businessman and had never thought about becoming a high-ranking official. After being in the Black Feather Guard for many years, he was still a small person at the bottom.

He is older and his mentality has become much calmer, but the two people in front of him are still young, especially Xie Jingyi, who is a newborn calf, is not afraid of tigers. Since that day, she came to Huo Qingxiu and wanted to investigate his grandfather's family without saying a word. He knew that this was a tough character who was not easy to mess with.

If she had just gotten up, it would be difficult for her to end today.

Xie Jingyi pinched the snacks on the table and took a bite, so, what is the new task?

Have you heard of Madam Du? He is known as Madam Furong. Huo Qingxiu retracted his gaze from Xie Jingyi and asked.

Manager Zhao nodded. In the past two years, the most popular person in the palace is Mrs. Furong. Du Furong is as famous as her name, and is very rich and prosperous, with the appearance of Concubine Yang. When the official family was the crown prince, he once met her at a flower party.

After she was sixteen years old, she was admitted to the palace. Du Furong's father was a Jinshi and had been a tutor. It is said that the empress dowager also liked Mrs. Furong very much, saying that she was well-educated and had the appearance of being a man. But from me, it was just nonsense.

When Xie Jingyi heard this, she looked at Manager Zhao with great interest.

It's really interesting to say that the two people on the opposite side, the one with high official positions, the one with a fear of wolves in front and tigers in the back, and the one with a low official position, are brave enough to say anything.

Where does this start?

Manager Zhao smiled and said, Xie San, don’t laugh at me. I’m talking about it, just a big axe in front of Lu Ban’s door. But, the current queen is from the empress dowager’s mother clan. No matter how hard she has to have a legitimate son in the central palace, she is just the turn of cough cough cough cough

Xie Jingyi nodded slightly, and what Manager Zhao said was rough and not rough.

The official family is not the parent-child of the queen mother, and the age difference between the two is too big. The queen mother can be the grandmother of the official family, so how can they talk about deep friendship? So naturally, the queen mother chose her niece and gave it to the official family as the wife.

Du Furong has a good background and is favored by her, and is a powerful competitor to the queen. How can the queen mother like her?

So? What does our mission have to do with Madam Du? Xie Jingyi asked curiously.

Mrs. Du had a brother named Du Qi. Last night, a young lady died in Du Qi's villa. Du Qi was so scared that he screamed and was discovered by the patrolling guards.

Xie Jingyi frowned and said that the murder case should be directly subject to Kaifeng Prefecture for review. Why did it be thrown to Hei Yuwei? There must be something unspeakable about it.

The young lady, named Xu Zixin, was the daughter of the county magistrate of Changping County, the suburbs of Beijing. When she died, she was lying on the bed. Du Qitui said she didn't know Xu Zixin. However, the Imperial Guard found that the former owner of Du Qi's other courtyard was Xu Zixin's father.

In fact, just three days ago, when a man passed by, he found that the servant next to Du Qi had transported things to bury him, and later dug out another little lady's body.

Wait, what is the name of the deceased? Xie Jingyi was thinking about the case and suddenly asked.

Huo Qingxiu was surprised to see her, do you know Xu Zixin?

Xie Jingyi neither nodded nor shook her head. I don’t know if it was the same person. But the daughter of the former Hangzhou Tongzhe was named Xu Zixin. Moreover, there are rumors that he was transferred to the capital because he was Du’s way.

That's very likely. Since you know each other, that's even better. Originally, the case was tried by Kaifeng Prefecture, but because the deceased had many talismans on it, it was very strange. Because of the concern that it caused panic among the people, it was suspected that the murderer was Madam Du's only brother. She begged for it, so the case was taken over by Hei Yuwei.

Xie Jingyi sighed.

Xu Zixin is indeed very arrogant and doesn't like Xie Jingyi. But it's really sad that she ends up in such a country.

What makes people even more speechless is that Hei Yuwei is in charge of everything! Do you have to deal with murder cases? In the last life, I became the housekeeper of the official family, and in this life I thought it would be different if I became an official, but I didn’t expect that it would be the same as in the previous life.

Everything is fine and you have to care about everything! I am afraid that even the concubine of the palace is bald, they have to go out to find a good recipe for baldness!

This matter is urgent in the palace. Xie San, please check Xu Zixin and Zhangguan Zhao’s shopkeeper have found out whether there are any additional industries in the past two years, such as the other courtyard owned by Du Qi; I’ll check whether Du Qi has any enemies. That’s it.

Xie Jingyi picked up the tea on the table and drank it all in one go. I said, "The Hei Yuwei shouldn't be the only three of us except the commander, right?"

Huo Qingxiu blushed and hesitated, how could that be possible?

Xie Jingyi looked at him suspiciously and waved his hand. Others must have other things to do. The official family handled a lot of things every day.

Xie Jingyi was too lazy to listen to his long-winded words, so she gave a tribute and was about to quit.

Huo Qingxiu took two steps at a time, caught up with him, and said with a blushing face, have you ever seen Huizhi recently? I asked someone to post to her, but she ignored me.
