Idle game leads to another world

Chapter 431 A Handkerchief

The Plum Blossom Guards are responsible for intelligence. Since they are directly under the jurisdiction of the emperor, anyone who can become the leader of the Plum Blossom Guards is not just a reckless person.

I don’t know how the people he sent persuaded the emperor of Liuzhou with their eloquence, but since the emperor has already issued an oral order, Princess Mingzhu naturally agreed readily.

“But there are no clues? If those northerners take Rousi away, where will you chase them?”

“Princess, you don’t know, I am sure that the group of northerners are in Luancheng, and my people are watching the city gates and ports, so they have no chance to escape.”

This is why Sun Wei went around with great fanfare and told people that he was a member of the Plum Blossom Guards without any hesitation, just to tell the northerners hiding in Luancheng that you have to kill me before you can get out.

The longer you are trapped in Luancheng, the more likely something will happen, and the northerners will of course be eager to return to the north.

Once this group of northerners take action, it will be like being caught by the fox’s tail.

However, these northerners were really patient. Sun Wei had investigated for several days but still had no clues, so he came to ask for help from Princess Mingzhu.

Speaking of which, the Plum Blossom Guards had many spies in Yuezhou, so it was not surprising that they could find out where Princess Rousi was taken, but they were so well-informed in Liuzhou...

Li Chengxi, who was watching the show on the other side of the screen, felt that this matter must be related to Tang Lianyu.

"In addition, one of my subordinates once found the hiding place of these northerners and even met Princess Rousi, but he was discovered by the enemy. When he came back, he had died, holding this thing tightly in his hand."

Sun Wei took out a bright yellow handkerchief from his arms, with dragon and phoenix patterns embroidered on it, and the title of Princess Rousi at the bottom.

The palace guard took the handkerchief and handed it to Princess Mingzhu. She looked at it and said:

"Apart from this, there are no clues?"

"I am incompetent and failed to find more clues."

What can a handkerchief represent?

At least write a few words.

There is no way, after all, they are being hunted.

The only person who knows the place is dead, and the only clue is a handkerchief. Sun Wei said again:

"I got this handkerchief this morning. Since there are many people in Luancheng recently, these northerners should not have moved yet, but it is hard to say in a few days."

This is why Sun Wei gave up the game today. There is no time to hesitate.

The northerners are not much different from the Central Plains in appearance, but they are carrying a Princess Rousi, and this princess is not stupid. If she has the opportunity to contact outsiders, she will definitely ask for help. Maybe she is still bound by shackles.

So it is actually very troublesome for them to move the princess. What Luancheng lacks the most now is the chivalrous heroes who roar when they see injustice, so the transfer needs to be cautious.

But they don't know whether their base has been exposed. They will definitely try their best to move in a short time. When they change places, the handkerchief, the only clue, will lose its meaning. There is not much time left for Sun Wei to find the location.

"Look too, can you see anything on the handkerchief?"

The princess casually handed the handkerchief to Li Yingluo next to her. Li Yingluo looked at it and handed it to Zheng Yinping, and finally to Yang Yiyi.

The handkerchief was wrinkled, and must have been held tightly in someone's hand. There was some black, oily stuff on it, and there was no other clue.

Yang Yiyi was not good at thinking. She was about to return the handkerchief. At this time, Tang Lianyu, who had been silent, suddenly said:

"Miss Yang once solved the conflict between the Wen and Qing families in Silk City. Her intelligence is admirable. Maybe Miss Yang can see something."

The matter in Silk City did not make a big fuss, but Yang Yiyi once wrote a letter to Li Yingluo. Although there was no evidence, the whole thing had already spread among the circle of senior executives' children.

Even Princess Mingzhu had heard about this. When she heard Tang Lianyu's reminder, she also said:

"Can you find Princess Rousi? This is a great achievement."

Yang Yiyi quickly panicked under the gaze of the whole room. Others didn't know what was going on, but Li Yingluo and Zheng Yinping knew that it must be Li Chengxi who was acting as a military advisor behind the scenes, and Li Chengxi's existence could not be brought up.

They were just trying to smooth things over, but Yang Yiyi suddenly said:

"Can this handkerchief stay with me for a while? I need to think about it carefully. I'm going to the toilet first."

"..."

Can't you think here?

The smell in the toilet helps to expand your thinking?

Although this excuse was a bit speechless, even the princess couldn't control other people's shitting and farting.

Yang Yiyi took the handkerchief and ran down the corridor in a flash.

Of course, she didn't really go to the toilet, but found an empty room and started to ask for help outside the field.

–‐‐——–‐‐——

To be honest, this matter has nothing to do with Yang Yiyi. According to this girl’s thinking, it’s probably just a matter of me taking care of it.

Moreover, this matter is related to the northerners, and it’s a kidnapping. Yang Yiyi, who is eager to help others, can’t just ignore it.

However, Li Chengxi thinks that it’s okay to take care of this matter, and do a favor for Yuezhou.

Don’t forget who Yang Yiyi’s biggest enemy is. The Liu family is in Yuezhou. When they have a falling out with them in the future, the support of the Yuezhou court will be a help.

Li Chengxi’s calculations are very good, but looking at the handkerchief in his hand, he also thinks it’s outrageous.

No, just a handkerchief, it’s just a clue?

You don't think I can really figure it out, do you?

The description of the item only said that this handkerchief was a personal belonging of Princess Rousi, and there was no other useful description.

Having said that, the name Princess Rousi has a lot of flaws. Li Chengqi's first reaction was to ask if there was any Prince Jack. This princess might not be suitable for taking a boat...

Let’s digress and get back to the topic.

The bright yellow handkerchief is of good quality, with some corrugated black oil stains mixed in with the dragon and phoenix patterns.

The rippled oil stains may have been left behind by wiping something, but other than that, there are no other clues that can be seen with the naked eye.

Lowering his head and sniffing, he could smell an oily smell and a faint floral scent, but Li Chengqi didn't know what kind of flower it was.

Under these conditions, Holmes would be blinded whenever he came.

Maybe the handkerchief has some special mechanism?

Thinking of this, Li Chengqi took out the banknote detector and took a photo, hoping to see some words that would react to ultraviolet rays. Seeing that it was useless, he found a lighter to heat it, but it still didn't work.

That's right, if you really have the time to design hidden text, it would be easier to write it out directly.

After scratching his hair, Li Chengqi felt at a loss what to do.

"What are you doing? Come and play CS together?"

Just at this moment, Adasi came behind Li Chengqi with a laptop.

"I'm looking for clues."

"clue?"

"That's what happened."

After briefly explaining the matter to Aida, the latter picked up the handkerchief and sniffed it in front of her nose.

"Well, this is butter. It should be used as lubricant."

The lubricants in ancient times were usually beef tallow or mutton oil. Since there are traces of wiping, it means that Princess Rousi must be wearing an iron chain, and the handkerchief rubbed the part of the iron chain that needs lubrication.

"Any more?"

"Emmm...it smells like locust tree gum. It's very light. It must have been stuck on accidentally."

In addition to being the goddess of springs and peace, Idas is also the guardian of trees, and understanding plants is part of her job.

"Anything else? Can you smell a faint floral scent?"

"It's not one smell, it's several mixed smells."

Aidas corrected, she thought for a while:

"Some of them should be specially made fragrance powders, and one of them has the latest and clearest flavor, which is the smell of gardenia."

"Gardenia..."

With these clues, can it really be possible to locate Princess Rousi?

Li Chengqi frowned and thought for a while.

It's really okay.
