Chapter 445 I don't want to wait any longer

Chu State, the capital.

The chief in charge of Jin State's investigation and general affairs was surprised when he received the news from Zhou Qing.

I read it several times, and after making sure that I read it correctly, I hesitated and went into the palace to the imperial study.

"Your Majesty, this is the news from the state of Jin, saying that the empress was seen at the border between Chu and Jin."

Xiao Jin's pupils dilated in astonishment for an instant, and he straightened up and took a look at the message in the master's hand.

The handwriting on it belonged to the spies from the state of Jin, but I don’t know if the news is true or not. After all, the Cangjiang River and the border areas of Chu and Jin are in two completely different directions. How could Su Ying appear there? place?

"You immediately send a letter to ask, what is going on?"

"yes."

After the principal stepped down, Xiao Jin's brows and eyes gradually became cold.

Zhang Shuming felt that this must be another scam, just like last time.

"Your Majesty, please stay calm."

Xiao Jin picked up the tea on the table to calm himself down, but the restless beating heart in his chest betrayed his emotions, and for some reason, he actually felt that it might be true.

"Go, bring the largest map to me."

"yes."

Zhang Shuming walked to the bookshelf, took the largest map from the top and unfolded it in front of the dragon case.

Xiao Jin's black eyes flicked over it quickly, and his slender fingertips drew a curved arc on the map.

"They have never found any trace of the Queen around the Cangjiang River. Later, Jiang Yang said that the person was probably taken to the mouth of the sea and went into the sea. If he really entered the sea, there will be currents in this sea area at this time of year. Ocean currents will wash people away, and maybe they will reach the seaport of Jin State."

Zhang Shuming listened to Xiao Jin's words, sighed in his heart, felt that the emperor was really stunned, and took ten thousand steps back and said, even if the queen was really washed out to the sea, would that person still be alive? Who can live from the head of the Cangjiang River to the end of the Cangjiang River?

Zhang Shuming felt that this was Xiao Jin's inner demon, but no one could make him wake up, he could only think about it himself.

Xiao Jin naturally doesn't care what others think, he only knows that he will not give up searching if there is even a chance.

"Now go and send a letter to Wang Su, and ask Wang Su to rush to the border between Chu and Jin in the shortest possible time to see what's going on."

Before he sent Wang Su to look for Su Ying's whereabouts near the mouth of the sea, and the distance he passed there was the shortest.

Zhang Shuming didn't dare to refute, and obediently retreated.

Su Ying and the others received the reply on the third night.

The content of the letter is very brief, asking how Zhou Qing learned about this matter.

Zhou Qing looked at the reply letter and then at Su Ying, as if asking how to answer.

Su Ying said: "Tell him it's fake, it's fake news deliberately released by someone, and you've seen through it."

Zhou Qing was very surprised, and really couldn't understand Su Ying's intention.

Of course Zhou Qing couldn't figure it out, if there were no spies among them, then she would definitely write back in person to tell Xiao Jin that she was still alive.

But now that there are spies among them, the news sent back by Zhou Qing is likely to be known by others. If those people use her whereabouts to make a fuss, then those who really care about her life and death are likely to be used, which will inevitably lead to unnecessary problems. Regarding the incident, she still planned to wait until she returned to the capital.

Zhou Qing didn't rush to write, but looked at Su Ying suspiciously and said, "Have you found out the whereabouts of the Empress?"

Su Ying said without changing his face: "I found it."

Zhou Qing was even more surprised, why did he lie when he found out?

"Do as I say, nothing wrong, write."

Zhou Qing was dubious.

Su Ying could only patiently explain: "The vice-principal is here as a spy, and his news must be answered by someone. Can you be sure that the person who responded to him is not hidden among the people you trust?"

Zhou Qing understood after hearing what she said. He did this because he was afraid that someone would harm the emperor and queen.

After finishing writing, Zhou Qing sent the message out.

"Did you really find the Empress?" Actually, what she wanted to ask was, the Empress fell into the flood under the dam. Was it an accident that a person could survive?

But Su Ying replied very firmly, "I found it."

Zhou Qing wisely didn't ask where he was, that's beyond her ability to know.

On the night when Zhou Qing's reply was sent back to the capital, a person came to an inconspicuous private house in the dark.

There was only one side room in the house with a single lamp lit, and a figure pushed open the door of the side room in the dark and walked in.

The moment he entered, the dim yellow candlelight in the room was instantly extinguished, and the room fell into a gloomy darkness.

"Master, there is news from the Jin Kingdom again, saying that it was a mistake, and the person found is not the empress at all."

The people in the room sneered when they heard the words, "Will there be a place to live if it falls? It's also Xiao Jin's whimsy, but you still send someone over to find out what's going on, who can't stand it anymore."

"yes."

…

Until the fifth day, the gates of the Jin State did not open, and Jin State did not intend to open or close the gate before the person was caught. It seemed that the gate was not going to be opened until the person was caught.

After waiting for a few days, Su Ying's patience was almost exhausted, but she didn't intend to force her way.

When Zhou Qing entered the room, she saw Su Ying looking at her with deep eyes.

"What are you looking at, son?"

"Looking at your face."

Su Ying simply called Zhou Qing to her, and Zhou Qing walked over suspiciously, before she could speak, she lost consciousness when her eyes went dark.

Su Ying brought him into the space, and after a while of fiddling, she brought him out with satisfaction.

It was already dark when Zhou Qing woke up, she looked around suspiciously and sat Su Ying in a chair, only the flickering bean lamps illuminated her back.

Zhou Qing said in doubt, "My lord."

Su Ying's expression changed when he heard the words, and he turned his head slowly.

Zhou Qing suddenly let out a low voice, looking at the face exactly like her own under the dim light, she was so surprised that she couldn't speak.

Su Ying said faintly: "Does it look like it?"

Zhou Qing nodded in astonishment, and heard Su Ying's voice. It turned out that Su Ying had disguised herself.

Zhou Qing got up and walked over to take a closer look. It can't be said that they resemble each other. Just looking at the faces, they are almost exactly the same!

Even if you are so close, you can't see any flaws. This face is like Su Ying's, so there is no trace of camouflage.

"My son is really a good craftsman."

Su Ying did not deny it, this is a one-to-one reduction mask made of animal collagen, even in the sun it is difficult to distinguish the real from the fake.

"I don't want to wait any longer."
