The First Auxiliary Road from the Imperial Examination

"Miss, if you stimulate her like this, will it cause any problems?"

Coming out of the place where Chu Zhi was imprisoned, Xiaoyao worriedly whispered in Shengyuan's ear.

"Originally, those officials in Kyoto wished they had clairvoyance and ears so that they could find out the faults in your words and deeds bit by bit. It would be better for you to hand over the clues yourself! If you teach them to know what you said to Chu Zhi, I will definitely accuse you of abetting the crime!"

"Even if I didn't say it, why would they impeach less?" Sheng Yuan waved her hand nonchalantly, telling her not to be nervous, "Zuo is just a soldier who will block the water in the village. Let's deal with it as the opportunity arises! Magistrate Luo told her his pain before, We are temporarily tied to the Zezhou Prefecture. If we can't find any clues, I'm afraid it will be difficult for us to return to Kyoto. What's more, Yang Shilang has something to do first, and I'm afraid our journey back to Beijing will be difficult. It’s not flat either.”

"But how can you be so sure that Chu Zhi knows a lot?" Others may not be clear, but Xiaoyao can clearly see that before her young lady went to see Chu Zhi, she hadn't played her card yet! It can be seen that it was a temporary move.

"It's just a matter of judging oneself and others." Sheng Yuan saw Chu Zhi this time, and only then did she really feel what was too much, "You have also seen those minions under her before, even the most unreliable one." They are all very strict, which shows that Chu Zhi is not a simple person. How can someone like her be so happy?

Well, you have also seen her attitude towards me before. She and I are strangers, so why is she so contemptuous and disgusted? Due to the past events, looking at her like this, I am afraid that she no longer trusts the court officials! Since there is no trust left, how could I easily believe what she said before? "

"Then you didn't deceive her?"

"Guesses without evidence may not be the truth. I can only say that until the conclusive evidence comes down, everything is possible. I just put reasonable guesses in front of her. It is up to her to believe it or not... Well, I am here Didn’t it give her time to think?”

Xiaoyao saw his young lady looking at him sincerely, and couldn't help but look away silently, thinking: If you don't give her time to think, maybe the other party will still be suspicious of her!

"Then what should we do now? The third batch of food from the caravan is about to arrive. When the food is distributed, we will soon return to Beijing to resume our duties."

Sheng Yuan looked at her and assured her: "As long as Luo Buyan doesn't lie, once the food is gathered, they will not let us complete the mission." Xiaoyao choked: "..."

She doesn't actually need such a guarantee!

"Then what if Luo Buyan lied?"

"Then why did he tell such a lie? There is no unreasonable calculation! If he lied, do you think he would let us go safely after getting us involved?"

Xiaoyao understood: Okay, look, this means there must be a battle!

"The young Marquis went to visit Commander Lu early this morning, and he hasn't come back yet." Thinking of the reinforcements, Xiaoyao felt that the burden of protecting his young lady was lighter.

Hearing this, Sheng Yuan raised her head and looked at the sky outside the window: "She should be back soon."

While talking, a rush of footsteps came from outside.

Sheng Yuan's ears twitched slightly, and she heard the footsteps of her own guard chief. Suddenly, her eyes lit up: "It seems that the investigation has some clues!" (End of Chapter)
