Han Yan said this, he had no choice but to see the young man turn the page of the book in his hand without even raising his eyes, and his tone remained calm: "Please -"
Han Yan breathed a sigh of relief.
In the two years since the establishment of the Jishi Wei, he had encountered difficult officials and officials who tried to thwart him by saying, "Do you know who my father is?" and "Are you not giving me face by doing this?"
official business.
Just looking at the way those disciples refused to cooperate and wanted to fight him to the end, it even made people wonder if they were hiding something out of guilty conscience - but it was often only found out at the end that it had nothing to do with it at all.
It's just to save face by having some background.
In contrast, the reaction of Wu Shisun in front of him was clearly the correct way to open it.
You didn't do anything wrong, just let people search you openly.
Han Yan, who was fortunate to have met a normal person, personally searched Wu Chao's bedroom.
Then there is the ear room used for washing and bathing.
Since no clues were found, Han Yan gradually relaxed.
Just as he was about to go back to the cubicle, he saw a subordinate walking over quickly and reported in a low voice: "Sir, an unknown bow and suspicious footprints were found in Nanyuan's garden..."
Matching bow?!
The escaped assassin used a bow and arrow to assassinate him last night!
Han Yan's expression perked up, and he immediately turned around and left the penthouse.
When he came to the hall, he raised his hands and said to Wu Chao, "I'm sorry to disturb Wu Shisun." Then he hurriedly left with his subordinates.
Hearing the footsteps walking away, Wu Chao put down the book in his hand.
At this time, I suddenly heard someone nearby exclaiming in alarm: "Who is it!"
Wu Chao subconsciously got up and walked out.
"I'm here to find your descendants——"
A girl in a sky-blue dress jumped down from the back wall and said while patting the dust on her hands.
The person holding the sword in his hand had an extremely complicated expression, and his eyes kept changing: "The girl is... Miss Xu from the Zhenguo Duke's Mansion?"
Xu Mingyi nodded at him: "Exactly."
"..." The situation became even more chaotic.
It’s true!
But... in broad daylight, what's going on with Miss Xu going over his son's wall and directly threatening to find him?
They, a century-old family in the Dingnan Palace, have never experienced such a ridiculous thing as a young girl climbing over the wall of the grandson's courtyard!
I haven't learned any inside information yet. I don't know how to place the sword in my hand. Take it back. Will the young master blame him for his incompetence in doing things afterwards? Lack of defense? Go ahead and stab him out, but the girl's demeanor and tone are frank.
Dang, it seems as if he is here to visit and be a guest in an upright manner!
When Zhengjue was approaching a dilemma, he heard a voice coming from behind him: "Don't be rude -"
"Shisun!"
Those who were close to him quickly sheathed their swords and saluted.
Wu Chao walked over, looked at the courtyard wall behind Xu Mingyi, and couldn't help but ask: "...came over the wall?"
"Yes." Xu Mingyi explained: "There are so many people around during the day, so it's inconvenient to walk through the main entrance - I didn't bother you, did I?"
Wu Chao shook his head and laughed.
It's not a big deal to disturb.
Besides, she had sent a letter before she came, telling him in advance that she would come, but he really didn't expect that she would come like this.
"I've asked someone to prepare tea and I'm waiting for you. It'll be cold if you don't come. Let's go."
Wu Chao turned around and walked in front to lead the way, Xu Mingyi followed him briskly.
"The tea has gone cold. Have you been waiting for a long time?" she said, "I have to wait until the security guard leaves before I can get in."
"I know." Wu Chao smiled and said, "It's just that you change the heat after it's cool."
Looking at the backs of the two walking side by side, Jin Sui rubbed his eyes in disbelief.
What is going on?
Can someone come and give him extra lessons?
"The detective didn't find anything, did he?"
In the hall, Xu Mingyi took two sips of the tea brought by Wu Chao, holding the teacup and asked.
"No, let Sui Jiang do some tricks in advance." Wu Chao looked in the direction of the cubicle: "I was planning to interrogate this person."
"Do you want me to come with you?"
After all, last night's method worked quite well.
Although the other party may not be so easy to deceive this time, she still has new methods.
"I'll ask him a few words alone first -" Wu Chao seemed to be pointing out something: "Maybe it will be easier to ask him this way."
Seeing that he had already made a plan and seemed to have something else to ask, Xu Mingyi nodded.
There was no need to ask any more questions now, she would just wait for the answer.
Wu Chao was not in a hurry to go in, but had a cup of tea with her and asked some questions about Mingshi.
In the compartment, Xiao Qi poked the man in black with his sword sheath: "Brother, wake up."
The weak man in black opened his eyes and looked at Xiao Qi, with a guarded look in his eyes.
Why does this person call him "brother"?
"How do you feel? Are you feeling better?" Xiao Qi asked.
Seeing the other party greeting him with greetings, the man in black felt even more weird.
But...the wounds on his body do seem to be getting better.
But being tied here all night, experiencing such severe pain, losing too much blood and not getting any water, it was inevitable that the person would be weak and exhausted.
By the way, severe pain...
The man in black slowly remembered what happened last night.
Last night he told the whereabouts of Young Master Xu, but the little girl turned around and left, never fulfilling her promise to give him a happy life.
He originally thought that what was waiting for him would be the terrible pain that the girl described.
But not long after, he felt...no pain anymore?!
The so-called pain of burning all the internal organs did not appear at all!
At that time, he couldn't tell whether he was more grateful or more angry at being teased and deceived.
But because he was weak and exhausted, he fell into a slumber while getting angry.
"What Miss Xu gave you last night was not some kind of poisonous powder, but a special gold wound medicine - how about it? Do you think Miss Xu is very kind-hearted now?" Xiao Qi squatted in front of the man in black and asked.
Although the fact seems to be that Miss Xu did not have anything else with her at that time.
"..." The man in black's face turned dark.
It turns out to be Jin Chuang Yao!
The newly scratched wound was still bloody, so I immediately sprinkled it with gold wound medicine. As long as the medicine is more effective, wouldn't it be like a burning pain?
He was completely frightened at that time, so he felt the pain was unbearable, right?
"Brother, Miss Xu is so merciful to you and treats your injuries. In return, shouldn't you reveal the person who was responsible? This will save you from suffering again."
——He still has to repay?
The man in black sneered and blurted out sarcastic words: "With your ability to fool people, it would be a pity not to join the Purple Star Sect and be responsible for persuading others to join the religion."
"Fooling or persuading?" Xiaoqi suddenly brought his face closer, looked at the other person and asked: "According to your statement, then you are not a member of the Purple Star Cult?"
"You..." The man in black's eyes changed and he frowned: "Your Excellency, this is simply baffling!"
