When the people who came to the banquet saw this situation, several of them dared to speak up, their voices trembling and dissatisfied.

"Lord Chu, since nothing was found on us, then we are not suspects. Can you let us go back?"

"Yes, Master Chu, this has been going on for so long, can we innocent people leave?"

Seeing this situation, Chu Shao thought about it, and then said, "At the banquet tonight, all those who left without authorization and those who have been to the east pavilion will stay. For the rest, I will send guards to personally send you away safely."

In just a moment, the crowded place suddenly became much cooler, only guests in twos and threes, people from the Chu Mansion and the officers and soldiers brought by the governor were left.

And Wei Heng only looked at the expressions of the people when they left, and didn't find anything unusual.

After waiting for a while to cross-examine, nothing was asked, and all those people had witnesses, and they were all right. In desperation, they had no choice but to send the rest of the guests away.

After making a fuss in the middle of the night, in the end the governor could only seal up the scene, and then returned with a group of officers and soldiers, only saying that he would come back to investigate the case in the future.

After everyone was sent away, everything was clear, and at this moment Chu Shao suddenly walked in front of Wei Heng.

"I never thought that such a thing would happen suddenly, the hospitality was not good, and the prince was also troubled. I hope the prince will forgive me."

"It's okay, it's important for Master Chu to find out the truth and give the Tang family an explanation."

Wei Heng only stopped rubbing the jade beads in his hands, looked at Chu Shao's brows that seemed a little tired, and answered calmly.

When Chu Shao saw this, he only pulled his lips, and finally said, "It's late at night, and the prince must be tired a few times, so I send the prince back to the room."

Wei Heng just waved his hands, a little nonchalantly, "Master Chu has to clean up this mess, there are maids on the left and right to guide the way, so I won't bother you anymore."

Hearing this, Chu Shao ordered the maid to send Wei Heng and the others back.

And Wei Heng, who returned to the room, silently recalled every move of the people at the scene at that time, and seemed to think of Ji Yuzhi's expression.

Out of trust, he listened to Ji Yuzhi, but now that he thought about it, he found out the movement, but was stopped by Ji Yuzhi, and such behavior seemed to be covering up something.

In just a moment, Wei Heng figured it out, and walked outside Ji Yuzhi's room.

And Ji Yuzhi seemed to have expected that Wei Heng would go to him, and he didn't show much surprise when Wei Heng visited.

There were two cups of hot tea and several stacks of pastries on the table, as if to entertain guests.

Seeing Wei Heng approaching, Ji Yuzhi stood up quickly, with a slight smile in his eyes, and invited him to his seat, "If there is anything that the lord doesn't understand, the subordinates will know everything and say everything."

Seeing this, Wei Heng understood, so he went straight to the point and asked, "Does this matter tonight have anything to do with you?"

Ji Yuzhi shook his head, then nodded again, "It's okay."

Ji Yuzhi paused for a moment before adding, "This subordinate doesn't know that he will commit murder, but this subordinate does know the murderer."

After finishing speaking, Ji Yuzhi's face was a little strange, "My lord, I dare to assure you that he is not a person who doesn't know right from wrong, and I think he has some secrets."

When Wei Heng saw this, he knew that the murderer Ji Yuzhi knew him, and the tone of his voice was quite familiar.

The corners of Wei Heng's lips curled up, his eyes were a little probing and interested, and his tone was a little indifferent, "It seems that he is an acquaintance of yours, so let me tell my son the truth."

"Yes, my lord."

When Wei Heng got the answer he wanted, he got up and went back to his room.
