Chapter 60

East courtyard study.

Su Jizhi sat there, listening to Wan Yan's narration of the whole process, with a gloomy face.

Miao Hong looked at Wan Yan, then at Su Jizhi: "Master Su, what did Gu Lin do?"

Then he was full of praise for Wan Yan: "Not to mention, girl Bingxue is smart, this method is really good."

Miao Hong praised with a smile, and turned around to find that Su Jizhi's eyes could kill.

Oh my God.

This Su Jizhi, is it okay for others to praise Miss Wanyan?
"Lord Su, I have something to do in the front yard, please go ahead and call me after you discuss it with Wan Yan."

With that said, he ran away.

Wan Yan also sensed that the adults were not happy.

"My lord?" The little girl tilted her head and walked slowly to Su Jizhi's side.

My lord smells of alcohol.

But didn't he go to Hengshan Temple?

"Why didn't you find me the first time you found something missing?"

It's not bad, this time the adults know how to explain the reason when they are angry, instead of being sullen like last time.

"My lord, I wanted to find my lord immediately, but it was already high time when I returned to the courtyard last night. Besides, I'm not sure what the thief is going to do?"

"You want to determine the purpose of the thief? But what if something unexpected happens in the middle?"

It turned out that adults were worried about her.

Wan Yan became more courageous, and took another step towards Su Jizhi.

"My lord!" Wan Yan pulled Su Jizhi's sleeve and shook it, shaking it with a smile on her face.

Su Ji's ears turned red.

You looked away: "I can protect you, why do you have to test it yourself? Don't say this is in Tongshan Mansion, even if it is in the capital, I will not let you have trouble."

Wan Yan nodded: "I trust you, and I trust you, but I can't be under your protection forever. Besides, I just want to find this person, and I don't want to confront him."

Wan Yan continued to shake, and Su Jizhi's heart gradually became soft and sweet.

"My lord, I said earlier that our blind analysis might scare the snake away. How good it is now, we have a direction and even locked Gu Lin. My lord came back suddenly, otherwise I planned to tell you at night. My lord, don't be angry. "

"I am not angry."

"I know, so what shall we do next?" Wan Yan tilted her head and blinked, her face shy and ingratiating.

Su Jizhi's heart softened completely.

Miao Hong said he was leaving, but actually he was lying on the base of the wall, and when he heard the two people in the study crooked like this, he hugged his shoulders and shivered.

Su Jizhi, Su Jizhi, you also have today.

Miao Hong stood up, and then walked out, faintly longing in his heart, when will his spring come?
Su Jizhi's sleeves made a rustling sound when Wan Yan shook them, which also made him restless.

"I'm not angry, tell me again, are you sure you only lost the earrings and emeralds?"

"Ah."

"Emeralds are worth more than a hundred taels. Are you using them for fishing?" Su Jizhi felt distressed.

Wan Yan chuckled: "I forgot to tell you, I earned 800 taels of silver for you today."

Thinking of Yin Zi, thinking of that young master, Wan Yan's smile gradually disappeared: "My lord, I have one more thing to tell you."

Wan Yan described in detail what happened in Qingyang Painting and Calligraphy Studio just now: "My lord, what do you think Gu Lin has to do with this person?"

Wan Yan felt very bad at the thought of the young master saying her name.

"What is that man like, can you describe it in detail?"

Su Jizhi's expression was cold and serious, and Wan Yan was also inexplicably cautious: "I still remember what that man looks like, I'll draw it for you."

Wan Yan went to the table and picked up the brush, and after brushing a few strokes, a handsome young man appeared on the paper.

Wan Yan took a closer look, almost the same.

Looking up at the adult, he found that his brows were tightly furrowed, and there was a sneer at the corner of his mouth.

"My lord, do you recognize this person?"

"Prince Xiao Zhengqian."

"Prince?" Wan Yan thought of his extraordinary clothes, but looked at her with deep meaning, "How does the prince know me?"

Su Jizhi looked at the little girl, a strand of hair on his forehead was swaying playfully in the wind, his nose was small and firm, which made him resist the urge to pinch it.

"Because of me." Su Jizhi went to the window and pushed it open. The sunset glow was reflecting in the sky in large swaths, and the green bamboo in the yard swayed with the wind, startling the little sparrows resting among the bamboo leaves.

Wan Yan walked up to the adult and looked at him.

"Do you still remember Vice General Wei?"

"Ah."

"The crown prince used to hold the Weiyuan army in his hands. When he was fighting the bandits in the southwest, he was greedy for a large amount of gold and silver treasures. The crown prince's lineage thought it was perfect. Wei Wenwu died in the Jiaofang Division in the end. The emperor recovered the treasures not long ago."

"The case of Zhang Guan and Li Dai?"

Su Jizhi nodded: "I don't know how much you remembered from the trial that day, and how much you know about the whole incident."

The lord looked into the distance, but the sneer at the corner of his mouth did not dissipate: "All of this was planned by the prince's lineage, but he picked himself up completely."

Wan Yan understood: "The prince hates you?"

"It's a great thing for him that I was demoted to Tongshan Mansion."

"My lord is at odds with the prince?"

Su Jizhi finally showed a smile: "Differences do not conspire with each other, he is the prince and I am a minister, that's all."

Wan Yan didn't think so: "In this case, the prince is not in the capital, how did he go to Tongshan mansion? What's going on with him and Gu Lin?"

Su Jizhi turned around: "I forgot to tell you that the Empress Dowager set off to Hengshan Temple to pray, and she is on her way now, and it is estimated that she will reach Tongshan Mansion in the next day."

"It turns out that your lord went to Hengshan Temple today for this matter?"

"I am Tongshan Prefecture Governor. Although the Empress Dowager went directly to Hengshan Temple, the gentry and merchants wanted to take this opportunity to appear in front of the Empress Dowager. I have to organize everyone to finalize some specific arrangements."

The scene of fireworks at Hengshan Temple appeared in front of Wan Yan, "I never thought that the Empress Dowager would leave the capital and come to Tongshan Mansion to pray for blessings."

"Hengshan Temple was built by Emperor Gaozu. I heard that the Empress Dowager grew up under his knees."

"Where is the prince? Why did he appear in Tongshan Mansion? No wonder the two guards beside him look different from ordinary people."

"You have the ability to know people."

Wan Yan pursed her lips and smiled: "Your Excellency can rest assured this time."

"Then you have to promise me that no matter what happens in the future, you must tell me as soon as possible."

Wan Yan felt that the adult's hand seemed to be touching the top of her head, she lowered her head in panic: "I remember."

Fortunately, nothing happened, and the lord turned around and looked out of the window: "This time the empress dowager was traveling, accompanied by the third prince. When the emperor appointed a prince, the empress dowager actually opposed it."

"It's another complicated palace relationship!"

Su Jizhi thought about it, but he relaxed: "In this way, the crown prince is one step ahead, but I don't know if the crown prince is on the accompanying list. Could it be that he is inquiring about the situation in advance?"

"Then what do we do?"

"Respond to all changes with the same, now he is showing me and I am hiding."

Wan Yan smiled: "My lord, do you still think that I am doing fishing with emeralds wrong?"

Su Jizhi said seriously: "Yeah, your mistake is that you didn't tell me what happened to you at the first time."

Two people stand side by side, the night is beautiful.

"My lord, what about Gu Lin?"

"Catch, I'm going to interrogate him tonight."

"By the way, my lord, the two people caught in Fengxiang Jewelry today have a familiar smell, and I want to identify them again."

Just as Su Jizhi was about to continue asking, there was a sound of footsteps from the bamboo forest.

Miao Hong hurried in: "My lord, someone from Jiaofang wants to take Miss Wanyan back, saying that someone from the palace has come."
