Sir, I can do it!

Wei Zhao shook the small fan and nodded Wei Shuhua: "Second sister is a lady from a famous family, so flustered, if my father sees it, he will nag you again."

Wei Shuhua raised his hand and brushed his fan away, glared at him, still breathless, and said intermittently: "Big, big brother, brother, kill, kill."

Wei Zhao's smile froze on his face: "What did you say?"

Wei Shuhua finally caught her breath: "Brother killed someone in Fan Lou, and Cheng Meng personally arrested the person in Beifu. Now brother is being detained in Beifu Prison."

"What!" A shrill woman's voice came from behind, Qin Wu stepped forward with her skirt in her hands, completely ignoring the style of a young lady from an aristocratic family.

She grabbed Wei Shuhua's arm and said anxiously: "Shuhua, please explain clearly, how could your elder brother kill people if he is so good?"

Wei Shuhua shook her head: "I don't know either. At that time, Miss Qin and I were watching acrobatics on Baihui Street. I saw Cheng Meng leading the team straight to Fan Lou. When I came out, I saw them escorting my elder brother. I asked Cheng Meng , it was Cheng Meng who said that elder brother killed someone in Fanlou, I didn't dare to waste time and hurried back to the house, sister-in-law, is father at home?"

Qin Wu's pretty cheeks turned pale in an instant, "Father is not here." She hurriedly pulled Wei Zhao back, "Azhao, you are familiar with the eldest grandson, sister-in-law, I beg you, please ask the eldest grandson to come forward, you must first save your elder brother, and you cannot call him." He is punished!"

Wei Zhao's mind was in a turmoil. He thought of what Changsun Ke said, the human skin fan was a warning that someone had attacked Zhen Guohou's mansion.

First the eldest sister, then the eldest brother, there is never a moment of peace in the family.His hand holding the folding fan trembled slightly, but he didn't dare to show the slightest bit on his face.

"Don't worry, sister-in-law. I haven't figured out what happened yet. The eldest brother may have been wronged. I'll go out and inquire now."

Qin Wu was confused, and hurriedly nodded in agreement: "Okay, okay."

Wei Shuhua said: "Azhao, I'll go with you."

"Second sister, my sister-in-law is in a bad mood, and there are many things going on in the house, you should stay with my sister-in-law."

Qin Wu seemed to have just recovered, she took a breath, and said, "Azhao, sister-in-law trusts your elder brother. If you see him, tell him not to worry about the family."

Wei Shuhua saw that Qin Wu's face was pale, but there was no panic in her eyes just now. As expected of a young lady trained by a wealthy family, she would always maintain a strong character no matter what.

Wei Zhao bowed to her respectfully: "Please leave the house to my sister-in-law."

Wei Zhao asked Huo Bao'er to prepare the carriage, and hurried out of the mansion, but instead of going to the south mansion, he turned a corner and went straight to the north mansion.He wants to see Hong Kun.

Hong Kun knew that Wei Zhao would come, so he specially made tea and sat in the hall waiting, seeming to be in a good mood.

With a dark face, Wei Zhao cupped his hands with Hong Kun with a smirk: "Supervisor Hong is so comfortable."

Hong Kun raised his eyelids, and raised his hand to signal Wei Zhao to sit down: "The top-quality Cangshan snow green, tastes good, the third son rewards me with a taste."

Wei Zhao took out an account book from his pocket: "From Emperor Wu's 12th to 15th year, the bribery records of Supervisor Hong."

Hong Kun smiled: "The third son is a cheerful person. With a record of three years, he defended the son from punishment for three hours."

Wei Zhao laughed back angrily: "Supervisor Hong is very calculating."

Hong Kun shook his head: "Don't dare, I can't compare to the third son."

"Remember what you said, if my elder brother gets hurt a little, don't blame me for being rude."

Hong Kun raised his teacup and smiled slightly.

Wei Zhao became angry, turned around and left.

After leaving the gate of Beifu, Wei Zhao asked the coachman to go to Fanlou in the east of the city.The east of the city is the sphere of influence of the Yanxingtang. Wei Xuan murdered, presumably Zhang Sun Ke received the news one step earlier than him.

Cheng Meng left someone to guard the place where the crime took place. The Beifu is currently in charge of the case. Wei Zhao has no official position and no edict, so there is no way to get close to the place where the crime happened.He grabbed a boy from Fanlou and asked about the situation.

The little guy trembled and said: "I don't know the reason, I just think that Wei Shizi raped and killed Miss Zhou's family in the private room."

"Which Miss of the Zhou family?"

"That's right, it's the third daughter of the Zhou family, Zhou Yan."

Wei Zhao gasped, Zhou Yan had been missing for several days, how could he suddenly appear in Fanlou, and how could he meet his elder brother!

He was unable to investigate the scene of the crime for the time being, so he simply left Fanlou to look for Jiang Si.Jiang Si knew that he was here for the matter of Wei Shizi, and comforted him: "Our boss rushed to the palace as soon as he heard about Wei Shizi's accident, Third Young Master, don't worry."

Wei Zhao's heart warmed up, and the anxiety and panic just now dissipated a lot.

"Fourth brother Jiang, you are often in this area, do you know what happened to Fan Lou?"

Jiang Si frowned and shook his head: "I heard that Miss Zhou's family has been missing for many days, and she suddenly appeared in Fanlou. I am suspicious. I am afraid that Prince Wei has been tricked into this matter. We are not in Fanlou, and we don't know what is going on at the scene. If If you want to reverse the case for Wei Shizi, the case needs to fall into the hands of the boss."

"Even if it falls into the hands of Chen Jinghuai, there is still a five-point hope, but now that Chen Shaojian is out of Beijing, Cheng Meng is called to take the lead. Cheng Meng, a person who seeks fame and reputation, has been guarded by Chen Shaojian in the past and dare not be too prominent. Are you I didn't see the haughty look of him holding Wei Shizi, I wanted to give him a hammer."

Wei Zhao suddenly rejoiced that he held Hong Kun's handle in his hand, so that he would not dare to execute the execution without authorization.Otherwise, if the eldest brother falls into the North Mansion, he will inevitably suffer from flesh and blood.

Jiang Si poured him a cup of tea: "Third Young Master moistens his throat, I have already asked my brothers to find out the news."

Wei Zhao cupped his hands: "Thank you, Fourth Brother Jiang."

At the same time, Xuanming Hall of the Imperial Palace.

Li Huai took a deep look at Changsun Ke: "The last time we protected Wei Zhao, you think it was Nan Liang who made the trouble. What's the reason for defending Xuan this time?"

Changsun Ke suppressed the sarcasm in his eyes, and said in a deep voice: "The Marquis of Zhen Guo holds the military power, and the son of Wei is in charge of the Flying Tiger Camp, and defends Shengjing, which has a great relationship. Although there is no conclusive evidence in the Fanlou case to prove that the son of Wei is innocent, there is The Meiyuan case is a lesson from the past, and this case cannot be tried as an ordinary case. Especially...the appearance of Princess Yiyang."

Li Huai's expression was shocked, and he put away the playful smile on his face: "Is this true?"

Changsun Ke said: "Nanfu has been secretly eyeing Chen Si, Princess Yiyang's confidant."

Li Huai pondered for a moment: "In this case, let the case of Fanlou be handed over to Nanfu."

Changsun Ke bowed his head and saluted: "The emperor is wise."

Li Huai waved his hand and ordered Sun Ke to retreat.A person flashed out from behind the screen, it was Prime Minister Lu Ding.

Li Huai rubbed the center of his brows, and his voice was a little tired: "What do you think, Mr. Xiang?"

Lu Ding put his hands aside respectfully, and said with a smile: "The emperor has made a decision, and I dare not speak rashly."

Li Huai scolded with a smile: "Master Xiang is really treacherous and cunning, that's enough, just say what you have to say."

Lu Ding thought for a while, and said: "My lord Changsun's words are reasonable. It is about Princess Yiyang, so I have to guard against it. However, I feel that my lord Changsun is too close to the Marquis of Zhenguo. The case of Fanlou happened not long ago. Your Excellency has not even clarified the facts of the case and entered the palace as a guarantor, it really has to make people think. After all, Nanfu holds a lot of power and is responsible for state affairs, but if he makes a mistake, the consequences will be disastrous."

Li Huai tapped his fingers, thoughtful.

"The second son of your mansion can become an official?"

Li Huai changed the subject, Lu Ding was slightly surprised, and replied: "Cheng Yi is used to having fun, and I just want to tell him to calm down so that he can serve the country."

Li Huai nodded: "Chaozhong is in need of fresh blood. The Second Master Lu is taught by the Xiangye, so he must be right. I heard that the Second Young Master likes miscellaneous studies. It just so happens that there is a vacancy in the Ministry of Industry. How do you think the Xiangye is good?"

Lu Ding originally intended to let Lu Chengyi join the official department, but when Li Huai asked, he couldn't say no, so he had no choice but to agree.

"Chen Jinghuai is still in Weinan. The officialdom in Weinan is still in turmoil in a short period of time. There are many vacancies in the court. Fortunately, this year's big exam to get a scholar, but I have attracted a lot of talents. Sun Li was dismissed from the official department. I want to promote the right servant to fill in The missing son of Shangsun Li."

Lu Ding said: "The right servant has been in the Ministry of Officials for more than five years. He is mature, prudent and experienced. It is good for him to fill in the vacancy."

"That kid Feng Yu has performed well this year. It can be seen that he has worked hard. I want to arrange him into the official department. Does the Prime Minister have any objections?"

"Mr. Feng's character is precious, so it's great to be in the Ministry of Officials."

Li Huai frowned: "Let's ask Master Xiang to draw up the decree on my behalf."

On the way back to the mansion, Lu Ding kept thinking whether his recent limelight had violated Li Huai's taboo.But after thinking about it, it was his own selfish intention to arrange for Lu Chengyi to enter the official department, and he hadn't made any preparations yet.Besides, Feng Yu is the younger brother of Concubine Feng, and the Feng family is in business, and there is no one in court, so it is understandable that the emperor wants to support Feng Yu to support Concubine Gui.

Thinking of this, Lu Ding breathed a sigh of relief, and his tense emotions relaxed slightly.

The carriage passed by the market, and all the reports on the street were the murder case of Wei Shizi Fan Lou, Lu Ding was quite interested, and asked the driver to inquire, only to find out that Wei Shizi raped and murdered Miss Wednesday, it was quite shocking.

After all, the Zhen Guohou Mansion is revered by people, and the murder case of Wei Shizi is also polarized, and believers are confident that he is innocent.Those who don't believe it will regard this matter as a piece of peachy news, exaggerating.

There were even rumors that Wei Shizi had long been interested in Miss Zhou Zhou and wanted to take her as a concubine, but Miss Wednesday had a heart for the third son of Wei, and she was the daughter of a family, so how could she be a concubine.Wei Shizi couldn't win the hearts of the beauties, so he resorted to low-handed means to rape first and then kill...

Lu Ding listened to it a few times, and his boredom was swept away.

Wei Zhao had already drank a pot of tea, and seeing that there was only one hour left in the time agreed with Hong Kun, Changsun Ke just came out of the palace.

"What does the emperor say?"

"This case is under the responsibility of Nanfu."

Wei Zhao's heart finally fell to the ground: "It's lucky to have you here. It's not too late, let's go to Fanlou first."

Fanlou is the largest restaurant in the east of the city, with people coming and going, and business is booming.The restaurant guys are so busy that they seldom take a break.

Fanlou has three floors, and the overall internal structure is in the shape of a Chinese character.The first floor is for individual guests, and there are private rooms on the second and third floors.

The incident took place in the East No. [-] private room on the second floor.It's a pity that they didn't arrive at the first time, and the scene has been cleaned up by Cheng Meng.The Beifu official who stayed behind was finishing the finishing work. Seeing that Chang Sun Ke took out the handbook, he stepped aside respectfully.

At this time, the private rooms were basically put back, and Wei Zhao almost vomited blood. He pointed to an official and asked, "What was the scene at that time?"

The officer said: "When we came, the private room had been knocked open. Wei Shizi fell drunk on the ground, his clothes were disheveled, and Miss Wednesday was under his body. We pulled the person away and found that Miss Wednesday's neck had a knife cut mark. Out of breath."

The blood seeped into the floor, and it was not completely cleaned up, and there was still a faint smell of blood.

Wei Zhao's blood boiled, he thought of the Meiyuan case, the feeling of being accused by everyone, and even suspecting that he was the murderer, he never wanted to experience it again.

Changsun Ke patted him on the shoulder: "You can't believe what you say, go to Beifu first and bring Wei Shizi out."
