Weiyang of the Red Mansion

Jiang Zhifu secretly looked at Wang Jun, and secretly praised him, the number one scholar and Lord Marquis with both civil and military skills really had a good appearance, no wonder the county chief turned his back.

Oh, no, she is no longer the princess. The position of princess has been abolished. Not only has she been abolished, but now her innocence has been destroyed. This life is over.

Who would want to marry a raped woman?

"I don't know the inside story, but there are some clues, not enough to determine who is the thief!" Wang Jun said frankly.

Jiang Zhifu murmured, "If you need any help, Lord Hou, feel free to ask."

Before the emperor ascended the throne, even if he was a member of the emperor's lineage, he knew very well the emperor's temperament. If Wang Jun hadn't been capable, the emperor would never have arranged for an ignorant young man to 'assist' him in handling the case.

Since the emperor did this, it must be because of something special about this young Lord Hou.

and……

It is said to assist him, but who is assisting whom is still unknown.

Wang Jun didn't expect that the magistrate would be so upright. He hadn't done anything yet, and this one fell back by himself.

But Wang Jun is not polite, he is anxious to find out who is behind him.

"Please prefect Jiang send someone to check who the second girl of Nan'an Palace has offended over the years, to see if any of these people have feuded with the Zhou family, and if so, pick them out and make a list for me."

Jiang Zhifu was startled when he heard the words, but he didn't ask any more questions, and immediately sent someone to investigate.

He has no clue now, so of course he can only rely on Wang Jun. If Wang Jun can find the thief, he doesn't need to ask more.

After waiting in the government office for a while, no one came back, and it would take some time, so Wang Jun left and asked the magistrate Jiang to find out the news and inform him.

Jiang Zhifu watched Wang Jun walk away swaggeringly.

The corner of his mouth twitched, Jiang Zhifu sighed, and continued to anxiously wait for news in the government office.

Wang Jun's side is the only clue. The thief really did a very clean job. He didn't collect any evidence. Now we can only hope that Wang Jun's clue is really useful.

As soon as he returned to Hou's mansion, he saw Jia Lian and Wang Ren waiting for him in the main hall, and rushed to welcome him when he came back.

"How is it? Did the emperor allow you to check it?"

Wang Jun nodded, "The emperor agreed to me and asked me to assist Jiang Zhifu to investigate this case, but there is no news yet, second brother Lian, you should go back first, it will be dark in a while, someone is staring at me recently, I'm afraid I will attack you, you should go back earlier, so I can rest assured."

Jia Lian sneered when he heard the words, "If you dare to pick on me, I will break his limbs!"

Humans have only four limbs, where did the five limbs come from?

But Wang Jun understood what Jia Lian was talking about. He told Jia Lian about the five limbs.

"Stop talking nonsense, go back quickly!" Wang Jun said angrily.

Jia Lian chuckled, "Then I'll go back first, brother, be careful yourself, don't let thieves come into the Hou's mansion."

Hearing this, Wang Jun squinted his eyes, and raised his forehead, "You still don't know my strength, come and count one by one, and let them come and go."

"It's true, my worry is really unnecessary." Jia Lian laughed when he heard that, and left in peace.

As soon as Jia Lian left, Wang Ren couldn't wait to grab his elder brother's cuff and asked, "Brother, who is it that is framing you?"

Let him know who it is, he must kill that beast!

His elder brother, who is newly married, made such a disgusting thing, isn't this deliberately to scare his elder brother?

"It's not clear yet, but I'm sure we all know this person!" Wang Jun said with a sullen face.

all know each other.

Wang Ren tilted his head and thought for a while, then said, "Could it be that he came from a family of four princes and eight princes?"

The only ones who are close to them are the honorable children of the four princes and eight princes.

Wang Jun didn't nod or shake his head, he was silent for a while, and said, "I'm not sure, but before they find out, these people are all suspects."

The most important thing is that the people behind this scene have picked on Zhou Huilan before.

Is it aimed at him, or at the Zhou family?

He can't be sure about this yet, but he suspects that it has something to do with the Zhou family.

"Why don't I beat them up and ask?" Wang Ren clenched his fists and said viciously.

If these people rush to plot against his elder brother behind his back, don't blame him for his merciless fists.

Wang Jun patted Wang Ren's head angrily, "Can you stop thinking about using brute force to solve problems? Sometimes using brute force will only backfire. Don't you fail to find out the culprit, but offend all your friends over and over again! "Said, sighed, "Forget it, I can take care of your brother, I don't need you for the time being, you, you should start a family earlier, you'd better pick a smart wife, otherwise I doubt that sooner or later I'll be pissed off by you stupid boy!"

After being scolded by his elder brother, Wang Ren was a little embarrassed.

His brain is not good, but his fists are strong. Of course, if he can solve it with brute force, use brute force!

"But brother, the person who framed you is hiding in the dark. It's not easy to investigate at all!"

Wang Jun glanced at Wang Ren, "You also know that the enemy is dark and we are clear? Since you know that the enemy is dark, you should not act rashly. Otherwise, if you fall into someone's trap, I will pay attention to help you solve the trouble!"

Hearing this, Wang Ren felt a little sick.

Seeing this, Wang Jun softened his heart again, and patted Wang Ren's head, "Okay, don't think about it, this little thing can't bother your elder brother and me, don't worry, go back to your own room and rest, I will I'm going to accompany your sister-in-law."

Hearing this, Wang Ren chuckled, "The younger brother is leaving, and I will talk to you tomorrow." Then he ran away with a smile.

"This silly boy..." Wang Jun shook his head and laughed.

After coming out of the main room, he went straight to the inner room of the main courtyard, and saw Ruyan walking towards him.

Ruyan is one of the two maidservants next to Wang Jun, in charge of all affairs in Wang Jun's house.

"Ruyan, is your grandma back yet?"

Ruyan saluted Wang Jun respectfully, "Go back to Lord Hou, Madam will be back when you have dinner in the afternoon."

"Hmm..." Wang Jun nodded and waved his hands, "Go ahead." After speaking, he was about to go in.

Ruyan hesitated for a moment, then called to Wang Jun, "Master Hou, Madam looks a little unhappy, please spend more time with Madam." After finishing speaking, she withdrew.

Wang Jun stood there in a daze.

Not happy?

Tilting his head and thinking about it, he probably understood.

Unhappy, and specifically reminded him that it seems to be related to him?

Thinking in my heart, I walked into the house with steps.

Only Zhou Huilan's two personal maidservants were waiting in the room. Seeing Wang Jun coming in, they retreated obediently and closed the door behind them.

Wang Jun saw Zhou Huilan lying on the couch, her breathing was steady, her eyes closed tightly, as if she was asleep.

But...if he really fell asleep, how could there be two maidservants in the room?

Pretending to be asleep?

Wang Jun walked over and lay down next to Zhou Huilan on the side of the couch. As soon as he put his hand on Zhou Huilan's waist, he was slapped hard by a jade hand.

With a bang, the hand was opened.

Wang Jun rubbed his hands in pain, and smiled wryly, "Daughter-in-law, why are you losing your temper when you have nothing to do?"

So angry?

Zhou Huilan opened her eyes and stared at Wang Jun, "Where did you go today?"

Hearing this, Wang Jun couldn't laugh or cry, "I'm going to see the emperor."

Zhou Huilan snorted, "You think I'm stupid for going to see the emperor on the second day of the wedding?"

"Of course something happened," Wang Jun knew that Zhou Huilan was smart, and he didn't hide her thoughts. He hugged her in his arms and said, "Geng Jingxian was raped in Guangji Temple last night. Everyone knows that the capital is in trouble."

last night?

Zhou Huilan frowned, "Everyone in Beijing suspects that you did it?"

"My lady is so smart!" Wang Jun said with a smile.

Zhou Huilan rolled Wang Jun's eyes, but it was not indecent at all. On the contrary, it made Wang Jun feel that the woman in his arms was very charming.

He leaned over and kissed Zhou Huilan on the lips, "Young lady is so beautiful."

Zhou Huilan blushed and patted Wang Jun's chest, and said angrily, "The sky is bright and bright, so don't be ashamed."

Wang Jun smiled and said, "You and my husband, what are you ashamed of?"

"Okay, don't get bored, let me ask you, what are you going to see the emperor for? You'd better not interfere in this matter, so as not to be splashed with dirty water again."

Hearing this, Wang Jun smiled helplessly, "It won't work if I don't intervene. The people behind this seem to be coming for me. If I don't do anything, I'm afraid the people behind will regard me as fearful. When the time comes I'm afraid they will intensify their efforts to frame me, and if this person is not found and eliminated, I will have trouble sleeping and eating."

After all, he is not without worries now, if it is only aimed at him, it would be fine, if the soldiers come to cover him up, he is afraid that this person will pick on his relatives.

Zhou Huilan also frowned upon hearing this, "Do you have any clues?"

"I suspect that the people behind it have grudges with the Nan'an Palace and the Zhou family, but these are all my guesses and have no basis." Wang Jun said truthfully.

Hearing this, Zhou Huilan fell silent, thoughtful.

"What did you think of?"

Zhou Huilan said, "I think Xie Jing might know about this."

"I think so too, but he is now an official in the Beijing camp. Although he is only a sixth-rank official, he is an official ordered by the court. There is no evidence, and you can't take him to the Yamen for questioning based on intuition and suspicion." Jun said helplessly.

In fact, the best breakthrough now is Xie Jing, but he has no evidence at all, and it is against the rules to want to take him for interrogation based on guesswork.

No matter how much the emperor favors him, he will not allow him to question Xie Jing because of his slight doubts.

If he was willing, when he mentioned Xie Jing in the Nuan Pavilion, the emperor would send someone to interrogate him instead of letting him go to Shuntian Mansion to assist Jiang Zhifu in a thorough investigation.

This is to ask him to look for evidence. As long as there is evidence pointing to Xie Jing, of course he can ask Jiang Zhifu to ask someone to question him. If there is no evidence, it will be nothing.

Zhou Huilan didn't expect that Wang Jun also suspected Xie Jing, but when she heard Wang Jun's helpless words, she couldn't help it either.

Suddenly, Zhou Huilan thought of something, "You just said that you suspect that the person behind the scene has enmity with Nan'an Palace and my natal family?"

"I'm just guessing, before you fell into the water, it was Geng Jingxian who framed you, but Xie Jingxian was not able to instigate Xie Jingxian, and she didn't have any interest in attracting Xie Jing. His person, and this person must have an enmity with the Zhou family, otherwise he would not have harmed you like this." Wang Jun said.

How important a woman's innocence is, he doesn't need to say much.

Xie Jing is already married, and even going into the water to save someone, this is not just destroying people's innocence, it is completely killing people.

Because Zhou Huilan would never be a concubine for others, how could a dignified granddaughter be a concubine for a down-and-out noble son, she would die!

Zhou Huilan was silent for a while, then said, "Do you think it's possible that the Li family did it?"

"The Li family?"

Zhou Huilan nodded with a serious expression, "It's Li Ge's hometown. Li Ge's granddaughter married the former Ninth Prince as his concubine. Geng Jingxian originally wanted to frame me. After I escaped, the one who got caught became the second son of the Li family. Miss, the Ninth Prince rebelled, although Mr. Li Ge is still in the cabinet, his status is not as good as before, and all of this was caused by Geng Jingxian's frame at the beginning, and the second girl of the Li family took care of me, so..."

Their family best met Wang Jun's criteria for finding someone.
