Yun's brows immediately furrowed. "Why didn't these people come on your wedding day? It's only been three days since your wedding, and they've come to your door."

She suspected that if Liu Yue had not been in the palace two days ago, they would have come to her house long ago if they couldn't find her.

Su Liuyue immediately thought of the missing child case that Concubine Feng and the others had mentioned yesterday, and immediately said, "Qingzhu, please invite them in and sit in the hall first."

Qingzhu responded and walked out. Su Liuyue then looked at Yun and said, "For more than a month, Lu Dutou and his men hardly contacted me in order to let me focus on the wedding. They came in such a hurry today. There must be something that they can't solve."

Although Yun was somewhat displeased, she still sighed and said, "You are right, they know your current situation, and if the matter is not extremely urgent, they would not have the guts to come to you.

Speaking of which, there has indeed been a sensational case recently. Because it involves many dignitaries of the New Dynasty, it is said that the emperor also attaches great importance to it..."

Su Liuyue's eyes darkened slightly, and she said, "Is it the case of the missing and murdered child?"

"Yes."

Yun said: "Although those children disappeared at the beginning, because the missing children were not young, the families were worried, but they still had a glimmer of hope in their hearts, thinking that the children just ran away for fun.

It wasn’t until the bodies of those children were dug out that the matter became a big deal. Speaking of which, the time when the bodies of those children were discovered was also very subtle…”

Su Liuyue asked: "When were they discovered?"

She just learned about this case yesterday. Although she was a little concerned, she was on honeymoon leave and they didn't ask her for help, so she couldn't intervene.

She had originally thought that after she finished her return home affairs today, she would send someone to investigate the case.

Yun looked at Su Liuyue with a puzzled expression, paused, and then said, "They were found on a mountain called Xiaogushan outside the city the day before your wedding with His Royal Highness the Crown Prince."

Su Liuyue was stunned.

It was discovered the day before her wedding to Zhou Yunke.

No wonder no one told her about this. People of all times are superstitious, especially the ancients. It was really unlucky to talk about such things before her wedding.

She thought for a moment, then stood up and said, "I'll go see the people from Jingzhao Prefecture."

When Su Liuyue walked quickly to the living room, she found that the people who came to see her were Lu Lu, Feng Dali and a man in his thirties wearing a crimson official uniform, with an ordinary but decent face.

Su Liuyue raised her eyebrows slightly, and Lu Lu quickly stepped forward to bow to her, and took the initiative to introduce: "My Lady Crown Princess, I am really sorry to bother you on the day when you and His Highness return home. This is our new Shao Yin who arrived in Jingzhao Prefecture a month ago - Yang Tao, Shao Yin Yang.

The Crown Princess probably hasn't met Yang Shaoyin yet."

Yang Tao hurriedly stepped forward and gave Su Liuyue a standard ministerial salute, and said in a deep voice: "This subordinate greets the Crown Princess. This subordinate has heard of the Crown Princess's great name a long time ago, and today I finally have the honor of meeting her."

Su Liuyue immediately understood. This was what Zhou Yunke had said before. He had already found a candidate for Shao Yin. He must have been working somewhere else before, and he needed someone to replace him after passing the imperial examination.

Originally, the day he took office was the day she and Zhou Yunke parted ways.

All I can say is that fate is unpredictable.

Su Liuyue nodded and said, "Please take a seat, everyone. You came to see me today because of the recent missing child case, right?"

They all looked gloomy, and Lu Lu and Yang Shao Yin's brows had not relaxed since they came in. It seemed that the case had put a lot of pressure on them.

"Yes."

Yang Shaoyin sighed and said, “Ever since the bodies of the missing children were found four days ago, each family has taken turns putting pressure on us to solve the case as soon as possible.

Because the matter was of great importance, the emperor asked the Dali Temple and the Ministry of Justice to participate in the investigation of this case.

There is still no news about the missing child of the Sun family. The people of the Sun family are going crazy. Because of Concubine Sun, the emperor has issued a death order, requiring us to find the child before he is killed..."

Before the child was killed?

Su Liuyue immediately asked: "Do you know that these children are usually killed after being missing for a few days?"

Yang Shaoyin was stunned, secretly admiring Su Liuyue's sharpness, and nodded, "Yes, four days ago, we found the bodies of the three children who had disappeared before. They were all buried together. Two of the children... had been killed for many days, and their bodies were severely decomposed. The coroner could not determine their time of death.

But when the last missing child of the Wei family was found, his body was still intact. The coroner determined that he had been killed two days ago. By the time the body of the child of the Wei family was found, he had been missing for nine days.

In other words, he should have been killed on the seventh day after his disappearance!

Su Liuyue's heart tightened slightly, and she immediately asked, "How many days has the Sun family's child been missing?"

Yang Shaoyin sighed and said in a deep voice: "It's a coincidence. He disappeared on the day the bodies of those children were found. Today is the fifth day since he disappeared."

The fifth day!
Su Liuyue's expression also darkened slightly. "Although the situation of one child cannot represent all, based on the circumstances of these cases, the person who kidnapped them should be the same, and these consecutive crimes committed by the same person generally have a certain pattern.

Assuming that the murderer attacked them on the seventh day after kidnapping them, there were only two days left before the Sun family child might be killed. "

Yang Shaoyin nodded and said, "That's right. If it weren't for the emergency, I wouldn't have come to disturb the Crown Princess and the Crown Prince at this moment..."

"Although the situation is urgent, I didn't expect you to come so early."

A clear and calm voice suddenly sounded.

Everyone stood up quickly and saluted Zhou Yunke who was walking towards them. "This humble official greets His Royal Highness the Crown Prince!"

Behind Zhou Yunke were the brothers Xue Chengyi and Xue Wenbai. It seemed that they were walking hurriedly from the yard.

Su Liuyue looked at Zhou Yunke who walked straight to his side, "Did you know that Yang Shaoyin and the others would come to see me?"

Zhou Yunke lowered his eyes to look at her and whispered, "Yang Shaoyin sent someone to tell me last night. If this case wasn't so difficult, I wouldn't have agreed to him coming to you at this time.

Originally, I wanted to take you directly to Jingzhao Prefecture later."

But who would have thought that they couldn't even wait for this little bit of time and came here in a hurry.

Yang Shaoyin bowed deeply again and said helplessly, "Your Highness the Crown Prince and the Crown Princess, please forgive me. The main reason is that the emperor sent someone to issue a death order this morning, and we were anxious and had to make this trip." (End of this chapter)
