Sir, I can do it!

Zhou Yan disappeared.

Changsun Ke brought back such a piece of news when he arrived at the Hou Mansion.

"Missing for at least three days, Miss Zhou's Fourth Miss accidentally slipped her tongue."

Wei Zhao snorted, "Accidentally or with ulterior motives."

The population of Zhen Guohou's Mansion is simple, and the brothers and sisters in the family are harmonious, but this does not mean that Wei Zhao does not understand the calculations of the deep house.Although the folk customs are open nowadays, they are a bit stricter towards women after all, especially the aristocratic families that have been passed down for hundreds of years pay more attention to the innocence of their families.

Zhou Yan has been missing for many days, if it is not known to outsiders, it will be fine.Now that the news leaked out, even if nothing happened in the past few days, Zhou Yan's reputation would be ruined.

Wei Zhao thought about it: "No wonder Mrs. Zhou went to Huguo Temple yesterday, presumably to pray for her missing granddaughter, what a coincidence."

Changsun Ke swallowed a sip of tea and asked, "Sister Chang is back?"

Wei Zhao expressed his satisfaction with Changsun Ke's kindness.

"I'm back, I'm talking in grandma's yard right now. You haven't come to the house for a long time, and grandma still asks about you." Wei Zhao blinked at him, and Changsun Ke knew that he often boasted about himself in front of Mrs. Wei.

"Thanks to the old lady's concern."

Because Wei Shuning was in the west courtyard, it was inconvenient for Changsun Ke to go there, so he just greeted the old lady outside the door and followed Wei Zhao.

Wei Shuning has lived in the harem for a long time, but she has also heard of the name of Changsun Ke, especially last night, it was only with the help of Changsun Ke that she escaped from danger. She is also happy that her younger brother has such a stable friend.

"Ah Zhao has calmed down a lot. I heard that the wonderful self-defense on the day of the public trial made all the girls in the city very happy."

Mrs. Wei likes her little grandson, and she couldn't hold back her smile when people praised her grandson: "Of course I, Azhao, are good."

Wei Shuning knew her grandmother's temper, so she also smiled.

"I heard from Ah Wu that my second brother's marriage is about to be finalized."

Old Madam Wei nodded, "It's about a younger sister of her own family."

"Qin's noble family, the children raised must not be bad. The second brother has not been easy these years, I hope he can open his heart."

Mrs. Wei looked at her affectionately: "I, Ning'er, have been so easy for so many years."

Wei Shuning lowered her head: "All of this is my own choice. I only blame my ignorance when I was young, and dragged down the entire Wei family because of my own selfish desires."

She held Old Madam Wei's hand, which was skinny but still warm: "Grandmother, no matter what happens in the future, don't worry about Shuning..."

The old lady Wei gently stroked her eldest granddaughter's head, with a loving face: "Ning'er, you are the daughter of my Wei family, no matter what time it is, you are the daughter of the Wei family. Don't think wildly, you will hurt your body carefully. "

Wei Shuning's eyes turned red in an instant, and she could no longer control her emotions. She cried bitterly in the arms of Old Madam Wei, as if she wanted to release all the depression of the past ten years.

Mrs. Wei patted her thin back: "Cry, if there is any grievance, cry happily. You don't need to carry it or hold it down here with grandma. Don't forget after crying. If others bully you, you don't have to bear it." So, don't worry about anything, let alone spoil yourself. You are the eldest daughter of the Zhen Guohou's mansion, and you are the jewel held in the palm of my Wei family."

Wei Shuning's face was full of tears: "Grandma, I was wrong, but I won't be wrong again in the future."

Old Madam Wei nodded with satisfaction: "Ning'er finally figured it out. You don't owe anyone, the Li family owes you."

Wei Zhao was a little absent-minded.Chang Sun Ke glanced at him several times without him noticing.When you come back to your senses, you have already arrived at Huguo Temple.

Wei Zhao smiled at Zhang Sun Ke with some guilt: "It's here so soon."

Changsun Ke jumped out of the car first, moved the car stool over, and pointed out: "I think it is much slower than before."

Wei Zhao felt even more guilty.But Changsun Ke didn't seem to want to ask.

Seeing him walking towards the Huguo Temple, Wei Zhao followed closely: "Don't you ask me what I'm thinking?"

"You can say it yourself if you want to say it, why should I force you if you don't want to say it?"

Wei Zhao scratched his head in embarrassment: "You are so considerate, it seems that I am hypocritical. But I haven't figured out what to say about this matter, but I want to emphasize one point, I don't think I'm sorry for you thing."

Changsun Ke didn't seem to care, and only said that the investigation should not bring personal emotions.

Wei Zhao let out a 'huh', and followed Changsun Ke step by step.

The assassination happened only last night, and Li Huai ordered the palace servants to escort the Queen to the Hou's Mansion early in the morning.Except for Fan'er and Xiao Mozi, all the court maids serving the queen were detained in the temple, and Qi Wu's deputy stayed behind to guard them.

Seeing Wei Zhaolai, Deputy General Sun was not surprised.After all, this is the queen's younger brother, and the assassination last night must not be hidden from Zhen Guohou. This master came here for what happened last night.

"Third son." Vice-General Sun saluted first, and seeing that the eldest Sun Ke was also there, he was slightly relieved.

He's just a military commander, and he's not good at investigating and solving crimes. Since his eldest grandson is here, they don't need the Imperial Army for this matter.

Changsun Ke knew that Wei Zhao wanted to investigate the case himself, so he went to the palace this morning to ask for an order.The assassination of the queen in the Huguo Temple is no small matter, and Li Huaidang even handed over the case to Changsun Ke.

Changsun Ke has a handbook from the sage, so Vice General Sun is naturally happy to get rid of this hot potato.

"My lord, General Qi left an officer to guard here, and no one is allowed to approach this courtyard. The subordinate officials are not good at investigating cases, so they only walked through the courtyard once, without moving anything."

Changsun Ke nodded: "I'm sorry, Deputy General Sun."

"Since Master Changsun has taken over the case, if there is no other order, the next official will return to General Qi."

"Vice General Sun, please."

Seeing him leave, Wei Zhao was dumbfounded, thinking that the assassin was specially arranged by Mr. Changsun, and it doesn't matter if you don't move or move anything.

However, he was also very curious: "I said, Master Changsun, you have dominated the Nanfu for many years, and you have never committed an unjust, false or wrongful case in your hands. How will it end this time? Could it be possible to tell the man in the palace directly that you are an assassin?"

Changsun Ke didn't answer directly: "Let's investigate the case first."

He was talking about the case of Wei Shuning's disappearance for half a day.

Wei Zhao made fun of it, and didn't bother him to talk, and just observed the layout of the Buddhist monastery by himself.

Huguo Temple used to be the first Buddhist temple in Chu State, covering a large area.There are row upon row of buildings in the temple, scattered all over the place.

Emperor Wei of Chu was cruel, and the people complained a lot. Even if it was as prosperous as Shengjing, there were starvation everywhere.When the Duke of Qi conquered Chu, he saw the invasion of Shengjing City. The abbot of Huguo Temple feared that the Chu army would resist and hurt innocent people.Qi Guogong made Huguo Temple a royal temple, and assigned the surrounding mountains to Huguo Temple.

Mrs. Li, the birth mother of the Duke of Qi, believed in Buddhism and often discussed with the abbot at that time.The Zen courtyard in front of us is a courtyard specially reserved for the royal family by Huguo Temple, surrounded by mountains and rivers, quiet and elegant.Mrs. Li is a firm believer in cause and effect, so although she built a Buddhist monastery alone, she didn't like luxury, and only asked the abbot to follow the rules of the Huguo Temple.

Therefore, although the view of this Buddhist temple is good, its layout is similar to other Buddhist temples.Entering through the second gate is the meditation room, and passing through the third gate is the guest courtyard in front of you.The guest courtyard is square and square, with a total of 21 guest rooms, seven on each side, regardless of priority.Each guest room is the same size and decorated in the same way. No matter you are a high-ranking official or an ordinary citizen, the rooms will not be divided into different classes because of your different status in Huguo Temple.Since entering a Buddhist temple, what I seek is a peace of mind.

Wei Shuning's room is in the middle of a row facing south, Mrs. Yu is on her left and Fan is on the right.Nanny Liu and other palace maids were arranged in the east and west rows of wing rooms.

"According to the eldest sister, she was in good condition for the first few days, and she was able to go to the back mountain with Faner to relax when she had nothing to do. It rained a few days ago, I don't want the elder sister to catch a cold at night, and feel refreshed the next day I'm not well, I'm tired, I can't lift my spirits to do anything, and it's noisy when I see too many people. Yesterday afternoon, Aunt Yu invited her eldest sister to go to the lake. At first, she was quite energetic. She sent a fan to prepare refreshments. Maybe she was sick A few days later, I felt a little dizzy when I got on the boat, and before the fan came back, I asked Aunt Yu to help her back to the guest room. After that, I fell into a deep sleep, and when I woke up, I was in the guest room in the front yard."

Changsun Ke pushed open the door. The layout of the room was simple, with a small table on the bed and futons on both sides.In addition, there is a pair of tables and chairs, and there is a shelf next to the table, on which are several volumes of scriptures.

Changsun Ke flipped through it casually, but didn't find any secret passage agencies.The room is too simple and clear at a glance.

Wei Zhao pushed open the rear window and looked out with his head.Outside the window is a corridor that is not spacious, and a row of banyan trees are planted on the other side of the courtyard wall, so the side of the corridor near the wall has grown a little moss due to the perennial cool and damp.Originally, there was no courtyard wall here, but a courtyard wall was purposely reserved because most of the people who came to worship the Buddha were royal family members.Across the courtyard wall is the courtyard where the imperial guards stayed overnight.According to memory, there is a second-story attic in the courtyard, and Qi Wu will set up a watchtower there to observe the surrounding situation.

From here, he could only faintly see the glazed tile roof of the attic through the cracks of the banyan trees, and he turned his eyes to the corridor.When the summer wind blows, the banyan leaves on the corridor are blown up by the wind.In the chaos last night, Changsun Ke sent his eldest sister back from here. There were some messy footprints on the corridor, and there were also fallen banyan branches and leaves.

"In the yard there is an inner eunuch, the back yard is next to the Imperial Army, and the front yard is guarded by Deputy General Sun. It was daytime, and even with a pair of wings, the eyeliner of the Imperial Army could not fly away. How do you think Eldest Sister disappeared out of thin air? "

Wei Zhao added: "When little Mozi found me, I was still thinking about some secret passage hidden in Xu Shi's room. At that time, I was very sure that Elder Sister must still be in the monastery. You pretended to be an assassin last night, and you must have also caught Qi Wu's trap." Defensive, in this case, the eldest sister can still be taken out, unless Qi Wu is blind."

But Changsun Ke said: "There is no foolproof thing in this world, and there is no defense like an iron bucket for the same reason."

He jumped out of the window, grabbed Wei Zhao's collar, jumped over the courtyard wall, and went straight to the attic.

Wei Zhao stretched his collar, and glared at him angrily: "You can't be gentle!"

Seeing that Chang Sun Ke was in a daze, Wei Zhao rolled his eyes, thinking that he was really clueless.

"Don't hold me by the collar next time, you can hug me." Wei Zhao showed him as he said, and took Chang Sun Ke's hand and put it on his waist: "Hey, that's fine."

Changsun Ke didn't respond, Wei Zhao frowned and glanced at him, but saw that the man's ears were slightly red, obviously shy.

Wei Zhao rolled his eyes and leaned into his arms, before he could open his mouth to tease him, he suddenly felt his waist tighten.Then the world spun, and before he could react, he was pushed against the wall.Changsun Ke supported his waist with one hand and his shoulder with the other, his eyes met, Wei Zhao's heart was about to burst out.

Isn't this the bloody plot in the storybook? Normally, at such times, the hero will look at him affectionately, and then confess his feelings, and then give him a kiss of love...

Wei Zhao blinked, his long eyelashes trembled, his cheeks blushed unconsciously, and he said coyly, "What do you want to say?"

After waiting for a long time, just when Wei Zhao thought this person was shy and embarrassed to say it, Changsun Ke suddenly spoke.

"Don't bring personal emotions into the case." Chang Sun Ke said very seriously.

Wei Zhaoru was struck by lightning.
