The princess's little white-faced concubine

Just after entering Wu Geng Qingning's room, there were rustling voices.

"Hurry up and get out." Qing Ning opened the door to look outside, and when she saw no one, she turned around and whispered to the people behind her.

"Okay okay."

After Jiang Zhichu put on his shoes, he walked forward quickly, "Thank you!"

She blinked mischievously, when Qing Ning saw her, she gave her a contemptuous look and closed the door.Jiang Zhichu stepped back to his room, poked his head out to look around before entering the door, and closed the door after seeing that there was no one there.

After being thrown out by Yiqiu last night, she really didn't dare to sleep on her couch. Although the mattresses were all new, it still gave people a creepy feeling, so she thought of Qingning, and went to ring the bell in the middle of the night. Her door, in order not to cause trouble for Qing Ning, she had to "sneak around" like this.

But she thought she was careful enough, but she didn't expect that this time was the time when Yiqiu was going to wait for Wei Zhaojin to get up. Just now, she came out of the Qingning room and returned to her own room, and Yiqiu saw it for real. Qiu was holding a basin of hot water and stood there in a daze, so shocked that his jaw was about to "dislocate".

Yi Qiu gently pushed Wei Zhaojin away to the door, put hot water on the table softly, and went to wake Wei Zhaojin up.

Wei Zhaojin's sleep is light, and she will wake up at the slightest movement.

"Your Highness, you are awake."

Wei Zhaojin responded, then took the willow branch, put it in his mouth, chewed it out, and then took the salt water to rinse his mouth. After washing, he put on his clothes and sat in front of the bronze mirror. He put on the ruby ​​earrings in front of the bronze mirror. Yiqiu was just fine. Sewage came back and stood behind her to comb her hair.

"Your Highness, I have something I want to tell you, don't be angry."

Wei Zhaojin smiled slightly and said, "Let's listen."

Yi Qiu helped her with the hairpin, walked up to her and said angrily, "My servant saw Mr. Jiang come out of Qingning's room this morning. He was sneaky and did nothing good!"

The corners of Wei Zhaojin's raised lips gradually faded, and the hands under the sleeves clenched into fists.

"What does it have to do with me, Yiqiu, there is no need to mention such insignificant things in the future." She said coldly.

"Yes." Yiqiu replied puzzled.

Could it be that His Highness doesn't like Jiang Zhichu?Tired of playing so quickly?

"Your Highness, I have one more thing to do." She said awkwardly.

"What's the matter?"

"The servant girl scraped her arm a few days ago, and now she has a scar. The servant girl begged His Highness to reward you with ice muscle jade bone cream."

Yiqiu knew that the ice muscle jade bone paste was precious, but she wasn't sure that Wei Zhaojin would give it to her, so she was still a little uneasy.

"What should I do..." Wei Zhaojin paused, then got up and went to the medicine box to take out a porcelain bottle and handed it to her: "Take it, a woman should cherish her body very much."

Wei Zhaojin has always been considerate of his servants, and treats Yiqiu even worse. It's nothing to worry about, but... she brought it out to Jiang Zhichu, but now that person should not be used anymore.

Yiqiu gratefully accepted the porcelain vase, her face was full of joy.

"Yiqiu, prepare your car and go to the Yizhuang outside the city."

"Yes." Yiqiu took the order and went out holding the porcelain bottle.

Jiang Zhichu waited in the house for a long time, and seeing movement in Wei Zhaojin's room, she guessed that Wei Zhaojin must have got up, and waited for a while to see Yi Qiu come out before knocking on her door.

"Who is it?" Wei Zhaojin couldn't hear the emotional voice from inside the house.

"At the beginning of Chenjiang, I would like to see Your Royal Highness the Eldest Princess." She respectfully said.

The person inside seemed to be thinking, and after a while, he slowly said: "Come in."

Jiang Zhichu pushed the door open and saw Wei Zhaojin sitting at the table, with his left hand resting on his chin and the right hand holding a book, as if every time he saw her, she would always sit there quietly.

Peerless and independent.

"What's the matter?" Wei Zhaojin raised his eyes and glanced at her, then looked away again.

"Yes." She took the initiative to close the distance between the two as if she was familiar with it. "Your Highness, didn't you catch the murderer in jail last night? I was thinking..." She hesitated, not knowing whether to speak out.

Wei Zhaojin didn't look at her but said indifferently: "Do you want to see him?"

It is of course better not to say it yourself when you are guessed, Jiang Zhichu immediately smiled, and his heart was sweet: So the princess knows me so well.

"No." She refused flatly.

Jiang Zhichu thought his ears were broken, and he misheard, "What did you say?"

Wei Zhaojin frowned, his lips parted slightly, "I can't do it right."

Jiang Zhichu didn't understand, he had been following this case all the time, and the clues were obtained by risking his life. It can be said that she was more conscientious than Wei Xian, and now that Wei Zhaojin came to design and catch the murderer, why should she leave her? Clear the relationship?She didn't want to ask for credit, she was just a girl, she felt a little wronged, and secondly, she vaguely felt that the case was not that simple.

"Your Highness! Why not, this case is not yet over, and the countless innocent lives that have died have not yet died...I..."

She wants to say that there are still many suspicious points in this case that have not been discovered, the salt mentioned in the diary and the killing of the two salt merchants back then... and why Han Shijun killed several people in the Mu Mansion and the Zhang Mansion. Ask clearly and understand.

But Wei Zhaojin seemed to have made up his mind to get her out of this matter.

"Master Jiang." Wei Zhaojin put down the book, and suddenly raised his head to look at her: "I think you, Meng Lang, are ignorant and don't care about you. Whether this matter ends or not has nothing to do with you. Do your job well, Jiang. You have crossed the line, my lord."

What Wei Zhaojin said was that if the emperor hadn't nodded and agreed, Jiang Zhichu would have nothing to do with this case. Now that the murderer has been caught and the people's hearts are settled, Wei Xian's mission is considered complete. Whether the two need to continue the investigation has to be decided by the higher authorities.

"Your Highness..." Yiqiu seemed to have come a long time ago, but she didn't know whether to disturb Wei Zhaojin and Jiang Zhichu for a while, but now that the "flame" was down, she carefully knocked on the door to remind Wei Zhaojin.

"The carriage is ready." Yi Qiu said.

Wei Zhaojin responded, then got up and left, Jiang Zhichu didn't know if it was his own illusion, Wei Zhaojin seemed to have glared at him just now...

When Jiang Zhichu was in a history class, the history teacher accidentally mentioned that in ancient times, the government’s conditions were limited, and they only had one means of investigating cases... that is "beating". There are many cases of torture, so 90.00% of the cases in ancient times They were all unjust, false and wrongly decided cases. Jiang Zhichu was worried that this case would become one of many unjust cases. Perhaps it was because of the mentality of modern people that it was difficult for her to accept this kind of thing.

After Wei Zhaojin left, she went to look for Wei Xian, but Wei Xian didn't know what was written on the desk, with a dazed expression on his face.

"Little son?" Jiang Zhichu whispered.

Wei Xian sat up after hearing her voice, and lazily said: "I'm writing a dossier..."

Jiang Zhichu poked his head to see that there were only numbers on the paper, "What? Can't write?"

He shook his head and then sighed again: "I don't know how to write. I don't seem to have participated in this case, and the trial is terrible. Tomorrow, I will directly escort it back to Beijing and hand it over to the three courts for a joint trial. My aunt has ordered it." , I don’t have to worry about it anymore.”

Wei Xian didn't understand either, but he could only follow his orders. Since then, Wei Zhaojin's orders seemed to be issued by the emperor himself, and the emperor's orders cannot be violated.As a courtier, you only need to act according to the emperor's order.

"Master, you don't have to go there yourself because the corpse is inside." Ling respectfully said.

Wei Zhaojin got out of the carriage, and a pungent corpse smell came over her face. She couldn't help frowning, and then she took the face towel handed over by Ling and covered her mouth and nose, and then she recovered a bit: "It's nothing, I'll come and see for myself. .”

Yiqiu on the side was already throwing up, Ling coldly handed over the face towel and the pot of water, which seemed to be for Ling himself...

"Thank you..." Yi Qiu suppressed the discomfort and forced a smile.

Ling just let out a "huh" and followed Wei Zhaojin into Yizhuang. Where no one else could see, someone secretly blushed.

"Master, the method is exactly the same as the method used to kill County Magistrate Zhang. It seems to be one person, and the cottage has been sending people to watch for any suspicious people nearby." Ling said in a muffled voice, covering his mouth and nose.

Wei Zhaojin looked at the wound on the corpse, frowned and nodded.The left leg of the male corpse was indeed disabled, as stated in the dossier, but only based on this point, he was sure that he was Han Shijun's younger brother, and he had to see it with his own eyes.Han Shijun was very stubborn, insisting that he must have been threatened by someone for what he did.

After a moment of silence, she sighed: "Just looking at the corpse, we can't catch the real culprit behind the scenes. We have to open Han Shijun's mouth."

She suddenly saw a red mole on the right thumb of the male corpse, she frowned and said, "Chop off his brother's right thumb and give it to him. I hope he... can think about what he wants to tell Bengong."

"Yes."

"Tell him that he is still alive. Don't allow anyone to come into contact with him, even Wei Xian. Send two shadow guards to sneak into the escort team to protect him personally. Let's do it quickly."

She pursed her lips and said, "Don't say anything to the outside world. The case is closed, so the body can be buried."

Ling listened to her words and responded one by one.

In the carriage, Wei Zhaojin felt that the smell of corpses in the air lingered for a long time, which was disgusting. She shouldn't have come, but she had to see some things with her own eyes. cases.

Han Shijun is not the mastermind, but just an inconspicuous character. It seems that he was not the only one responsible for these extermination cases, but he insisted that there was no mastermind because he was coerced... People seem to point the finger at Kang Wang intentionally or unintentionally.

When the first emperor passed away, His Majesty had to kill his siblings in order to fight for the throne. This matter became a knot in his heart. After ascending the throne, he paid special attention to brotherhood. Anyone who provoked the relationship between the royal family would be sentenced to death.

Wei Zhaojin couldn't imagine how angry the emperor would be if King Kang was convicted of any crime... But what would happen to her if the person behind this was really King Kang.

When Wei Zhaojin got off the carriage, Jiang Zhichu was sitting blankly in front of the stone steps of the yamen, scratching the ground with a small wooden stick in his hand, when he saw Wei Zhaojin came back, he got up excitedly, patted his buttocks and stepped forward to meet him.

"Your Highness, you are back." She grinned flatteringly.

Wei Zhaojin didn't look directly at her, and said in a concentrated voice, "An eyesore."

The smile on the corner of Jiang Zhichu's mouth gradually froze, and Wei Zhaojin seemed to be angry. This low pressure seemed to have lasted from early morning to now.Fortunately, she followed up shamelessly following the style of walking around the world with a thick skin.

"Your Highness, I have been waiting for you for a long time." She said aggrievedly.

Wei Zhaojin stopped and looked at her coldly: "Back then, someone stood in the snow all night just to see Bengong, and almost froze to death the next day. Master Jiang also wanted to talk to Bengong with such sincerity?"

That's right, this person is the former son-in-law, and he also has a thick-skinned style of walking around the world.

"Hey, Your Highness..." She still wanted to follow, but Yi Qiu stopped and blocked her from the door.

"Your Highness is going to have lunch." The attitude was extremely unfriendly.

Jiang Zhichu just watched Wei Zhaojin's slender figure disappear before her eyes, and stood there for a long time without understanding why Wei Zhaojin's attitude changed so much.

Is it bad Feng Shui?Wei Zhaojin is willing to talk to herself only in Kyoto?

Women are so troublesome... No, am I just a woman?

It's hard for a woman to understand a woman's heart!
