Chapter 79 I Will Support You Forever (Part )
Roulu was very efficient. The next morning, when Su Liuyue arrived at Jingzhao Prefecture, he checked everything he could find.

He handed a file to Su Liuyue, frowned slightly and said, "Young Master Su, this case may be a little tricky.

We asked all the brothels in Xinjing, and there was not a single girl who had been popular for ten years. There were some who had maintained a high status over the years, but they were all the madams of the brothels. The murderer's target was clearly a young and beautiful lady, so it was impossible for her to be a brothel's madam.

There are not many families in Xinjing that have been prosperous for the past ten years. We have investigated a total of 33 families so far. Almost all of these 33 families have made great contributions or have a certain status in the previous dynasty! The list is in this file.

Among them, twenty-three families have had a very stable status in the past ten years. After the establishment of the new dynasty, they have also successfully established their foothold in the new dynasty. Although ten families are not as prosperous as they were ten years ago, they are still bigger than a horse.

The most troublesome thing is that the girls in these families are very particular about etiquette and rules, and will not easily show up in public. Most of the people who have seen their appearance are from aristocratic families.

So... it is very difficult to investigate whether there is a young girl with a mole at the right corner of her right eye in these families.

I have already asked people to find ways to get information from those family members, but up to now, no one has come back with any message. "

This is indeed a problem.

Su Liuyue said, "A noble family like that has strict rules from top to bottom. Even the lowest servants would not casually reveal the appearance of their unmarried young girls to outsiders. If people knew about it, it would be more than just losing their jobs."

It is impossible for them to go directly and say that your girl might be involved in a prostitution murder case. Not to mention that their current inferences are just guesses. The range of people involved is too wide. If they make such a big move at once, it will inevitably cause waves among the aristocratic families, which will affect the reputation of those girls and cause them to be attacked by those aristocratic families, which will only add to the trouble.

Route couldn't help but sigh, "Then what should I do? If I can't find the girl with the mole at the right corner of her eye, I can't identify the target that the murderer might attack.

Otherwise, I'll have the brothers squat at their gates to see if we can catch a glimpse of the girls."

"This is too inefficient. Let's not talk about whether those girls will go out during their stay. Even if they do go out, most of them will take a carriage. How can they go out directly like ordinary girls?"

Su Liuyue pondered for a moment, and suddenly an idea flashed in her mind. She raised the corner of her mouth and said, "If it is too inefficient to search for them separately, why don't we check them one by one when they are all gathered together? Can't we check them all out at once?"

Lu Lu was stunned, a little stunned, "But, what kind of occasion can bring together all the young girls from dozens of big families?"

"Who said no?"

Su Liuyue raised her eyebrows and said, "Four days later, Princess Changxi will hold a lotus viewing banquet in her Princess Mansion. All the big and famous families in the capital have been invited. Moreover, it is said that our Highness will also attend this lotus viewing banquet. For such a grand event, all the young ladies in the city will definitely attend unless they are too sick to walk!"

Lu Lu was not from a big family, so he naturally didn't know about this. When he heard this, he was immediately overjoyed and said, "Your Highness will also attend? God, if I were a young lady from one of those families, I would definitely rush to attend! But, for a banquet like that, Young Master Su can go in without any problem, but how can we get in?"

Su Liuyue said meaningfully: "Now, we have to find our leader."

She had originally thought that even if Mrs. Guo asked her to go to the lotus viewing banquet, she would find a reason not to go.

Now it seems that she has no choice but to go.

Su Liuyue originally wanted to talk to Zhou Yunke in person about the flower-viewing banquet, but since Jingzhao Prefecture gradually got on track, this man disappeared every day, and Su Liuyue hadn't seen him in Jingzhao Prefecture for several days.

She had no choice but to call Feng Qi, who had always been following her, and asked him to help deliver a letter to her prince, who was busy with many affairs, and to arrange for the people in Jingzhao Prefecture to go undercover at the Lotus Appreciation Banquet when he was free.

Other things went smoothly. Su Liuyue was originally thinking about whether she should remind Guo in a roundabout way that she was going to attend the Lotus Appreciation Banquet. Unexpectedly, when she returned to the Su family that night, Guo called her over, told her about the matter with a cold expression, and warned her coldly that this Lotus Appreciation Banquet was of vital importance to the Su family. If she did something she shouldn't do again, it would not be as simple as confining her to her home for half a month.

From the beginning to the end, she was never told that Princess Changxi would select a few girls from among the unmarried girls to be her students.

If Yun hadn't told her about this before, she would have really been kept in the dark. Su Liuyue looked at Guo's evasive eyes and just found it funny.

Yun had told her before that Princess Changxi had someone leak the news that the daughters of each mansion would be given the opportunity to display their talents at the lotus viewing banquet. This was probably an important basis for Princess Changxi to select students.

No wonder she heard the sound of piano coming from Su Liuxue's yard every day these days. Su Rou didn't come to bother her much. She was probably staying in the room every day to practice her painting skills.

Su Liuxue's guqin and Su Rou's painting skills were already well-known in the circle of noble ladies in Xinjing. Although their reputations were not particularly loud, the competition in this circle was fierce. There were many talented women of all ages and the most talented woman in Xinjing. It was already a great achievement to make a name for themselves. This was one of the reasons why Su Rou was accepted by the Zheng family so quickly.

Regardless of whether it was the original owner or her, they had no competitiveness in these arts, and Su Liuyue had no interest in being Princess Changxi's student. Guo was guarding against her like a thief, which made things difficult for her.

The only most important thing for her to do when she went to the Lotus Viewing Banquet was to find the woman who had left a deep shadow in the murderer's heart.

However, her desire to give up was obviously not understood by Yun. After learning that Su Liuyue would also attend the Lotus Viewing Banquet, Yun suddenly became excited. These days, whenever Su Liuyue was free, she would force her and Xue Lingwan to make various preparations for the Lotus Viewing Banquet. It cost a lot of money just to make new clothes and buy various headwear, which made Su Liuyue very distressed.

Although the Xue family was not a wealthy family, and the clothes and jewelry they bought for them were of ordinary prices, for Su Liuyue, who was determined to show off and make sure that no one at the banquet could notice her presence, spending a penny more on this lotus viewing banquet would be a waste!

Just the day before the lotus viewing banquet, Yun forced Su Liuyue and Xue Lingwan to buy new rouge and powder. If Su Liuyue had not been going to the Princess's Mansion with the Su family the next day, she might have kept her at the Xue family and dressed her up personally the next day.

When she returned, Xue Wenbo sent her off again. Seeing Su Liuyue's exhausted face, Xue Wenbo couldn't help but said distressedly, "Liuyue, has Jingzhao Prefecture been very busy recently? I see you running there every day, and you stay there for most of the day."

“Yes, I am very busy.”

Su Liuyue raised her hand and rubbed her shoulders and neck, curling her lips and saying, "These days, there have been murders almost every day."

Although except for the prostitute murder case, the other murders were minor cases that she could solve on the spot.

"It's all because of me."

Xue Wenbai felt very apologetic. "Mother says every day that it is harder to find your free time than to find my father's free time. If I have delayed your preparations for the Lotus Appreciation Feast at the Princess's Mansion, I don't know how to compensate you."

A'niang said that if Liu Yue took this lotus viewing banquet seriously, she might be able to wash away the negative impact of the Zheng family's previous broken engagement with her and even find a good marriage.

Not only was his cousin unable to help at all, he even held Liu Yue back!

It’s really inappropriate!
Seeing Xue Wenbai's self-blaming expression, Su Liuyue: "..."

She really didn't know how to tell him that she preferred investigating cases to being dragged by the Yun family to try on clothes and buy jewelry.

Seeing the Su family arrive, Su Liuyue smiled sweetly and said, "Brother, since I can't get married by then, I'll rely on your Xue family for the rest of my life. You guys won't be reluctant to not support me, right?"

After saying that, he jumped off the carriage. Xue Wenbo reacted and quickly came to the window and said seriously: "Liu Yue, don't worry, no matter what happens, I will support you for the rest of your life!"

Su Liuyue was slightly stunned and couldn't help laughing. She was just joking, but this silly cousin took it seriously.

She raised her hand and waved at him, saying, "I know, cousin, go back quickly, your aunt is still waiting for you to have dinner!"

After watching Xue Wenbo's carriage go away, Su Liuyue was about to enter the Su family, but Feng Qi suddenly walked out from an alley next to her, bowed to Su Liuyue and said, "Miss Su San, our master is here. I want to ask if Miss Su San is free to talk to him?"
