"That's right, Master." Xiyue reacted, looked around, took out a puppet from her cuff very carefully, and handed it to Leng Yetong, perhaps because she was afraid that someone would hear it, she lowered her voice and said. , "I found this under the bed when I was tidying up the room. Originally, I couldn't find it, but my things fell under the bed inexplicably. Maybe it was because of its own traction, so in the I saw this when I was looking for something. Master, this should be a popular witchcraft technique, right? Don't you think it's strange that such a thing exists under the bed in the guest room of the inn?"
Leng Yetong put the puppet in his hand and played with it. He didn't say anything, but his brows were already wrinkled. He carefully checked every inch of the puppet, not missing any suspicious places. He pulled out a small dagger from his waist, put the puppet on the table, and took it apart along the stitch marks on the back of the puppet. A piece of yellow paper fell out.
Leng Yetong leaned down and picked up the yellow paper. If there was no accident, then it should have recorded someone's birthday. Sure enough, the date of birth was written in a red cinnabar pen, and before she could speak, the door of the room was rudely slammed open.
"Who!?" Zi Mo and Xiyue immediately pulled out their sabres from their waists, turned around, and protected Leng Yetong behind them, shouting sharply, "Who dares to be so bold!?"
"We are from the government." In fact, you don't need to ask, you can know that they are from there. The clothes of the yamen are not just casual. A seemingly weak scholar came out of the yamen, shook the fan in his hand, and said politely, "We are from the Linzhen government, this is the government's servant, and I am the official's master."
"Do people in the government have the right to break into other people's rooms without authorization?" Leng Yetong calmly folded the yellow paper in his hand, then put it on the table, raised his eyes and glanced at the master, and said lightly , "What's the matter with the officials coming here?"
"That's it, we received a tip that someone here was using witchcraft to harm the emperor. Although we don't know whether it's true or not, everything that concerns the emperor's comfort is something we should pay attention to immediately, so we I came here rashly and disturbed the rest of the young master." The master said politely for several times, not relying on his being a member of the government to put his eyes above the top. What a tough guy to deal with.
"So what? Are you going to search this place now?" Leng Yetong raised her eyebrows, looked up at the master, and said with a half-smile, "I want to search my room just because of a suspicion, then if you really find it , is this for the inn? Or is it for me?"
"If you really find it, the inn's people and you are inseparable from the relationship." The master said objectively, "If it is really found, there are two situations, the first situation It means that you had this thing before you checked in here. It may be a previous tenant or something from the inn. The second situation is that this thing was brought by you, son. It is difficult to distinguish between these two situations, and there is no such thing as People will admit that they did such a rebellious thing by themselves, so if they find out about this, I am afraid they will trouble the young master and the people from the inn to go back to the yamen with us. sinners."
