The evil sister-in-law dressed as a yandere boss

Chapter 847 I doubt a person
Wei Ziqian looked at his stepmother. In just a few days, this woman seemed to have aged ten years, looked crazy, and completely lost her former dignity.

The hairpin on her head was crooked and her clothes were from yesterday. She just stared at Wei Ziqian and said vicious words that she would never have said before.

It's like a completely different person.

Wei Ziqian didn't feel relieved, he just found it boring. This woman had never been his opponent.

He didn't bother to argue with her.

Pei Zhan and Huo Xing arrived at this time, and Mrs. Wei didn't care about any shameless things. Looking at the two of them, she probably felt that they were the same. After all, Pei Zhan and Wei Ziqian were good friends.

"Sorry for making you two laugh," Wei Ziqian said.

Huo Xing didn't find it funny. The legend of the Huo family is still circulating in Yanbei.

Mrs. Wei finally regained some sense and gave Wei Ziqian a hard look.

"Master Huo, are you here to investigate the case?" Wei Ziqian asked.

Huo Xing said: "We have something to ask Mrs. Wei."

Mrs. Wei was not surprised. She straightened her clothes, smoothed her hair and said, "My lord, please come this way."

Regarding Huo Xing's question about who was sitting next to Wei Cheng, Mrs. Wei said: "It's me, he is sitting with me, and on the other side is Mr. Chen and his wife. When His Majesty was assassinated, I was frightened and followed the crowd. I ran back, and after the assassin was caught, I realized that the master was missing..."

Mrs. Wei's eyes were red, and she wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes with a handkerchief: "Even if you see it, I don't know who killed the master."

Huo Xing added: "Madam, think about it carefully, has Mr. Wei done anything strange recently? Or does he have any enemies?"

Mrs. Wei really remembered it. She said: "When we went to spring hunting, he seemed to have something on his mind. He said that he had finally found it. I asked him nothing, but he didn't say anything, but he still seemed very happy."

Huo Xing and Pei Zhan looked at each other.

"If you remember anything again, please tell me, madam."

Huo Xing stood up. Mrs. Wei glanced at Pei Zhan and then said to Huo Xing: "Master Huo, I suspect a person."

Huo Xing turned to look at her.

Mrs. Wei said: "Wei Ziqian, he has a bad relationship with the master. They had a quarrel before he went. Moreover, once the master dies, the Wei family will be his."

Huo Xing found it incredible, but still nodded: "We will find out."

After saying that he and Pei Zhan went out together, Wei Ziqian was still preparing for Wei Cheng's funeral. Now that Wei Cheng's body had been cleared, it could be carried back. According to Dashun's rules, the coffin could not be buried for seven days.

Mrs. Wei also has a son who is said to be very capable. He is on his way back to Beijing. The power struggle in the Wei family has just begun.

At the time of the incident, Wei Ziqian was sitting with some dandy men from the capital. Many people have testified that, of course, it cannot be ruled out that he hired a murderer to kill someone, but this possibility is unlikely. The people at the banquet at that time were all strictly interrogated, and no relevant personnel were involved. It's impossible to get close.

And regardless of any conflicts between the Wei family and his son, the killing on the spot at the banquet was more like an impulsive killing without any premeditation.

"What did Dali Temple say?" Pei Zhan suddenly asked.

Huo Xingdao: "The dancer had a close relationship with the dead official of the Ministry of Rites. It should have been arranged by the official of the Ministry of Rites. Now that the official has died, the clues have been cut off. However, Dali Temple is still investigating. Your Majesty is very annoyed. Dali Temple is very angry this time." Difficult to handle.”

Pei Zhan paused: "Do you also think these two cases are separate?"

Huo Xing asked, "Don't you feel the same way?"

Pei Zhan smiled.

He did think so. Wei Cheng was neither prime minister nor a big shot. The assassin's target was the emperor. If he killed Wei Cheng, there was no need to be at the banquet.

During the period when Pei Zhan was dismissed, he had been running around with Huo Xing, while Tao Zhen was doing her business. Everything was going well, and Ning Hao had returned to the capital. Regarding the matter of Yan Bei, he approached Tao Zhen. He needed to write a memorial regarding the pilot project in the exile village and the land contract. He wanted to ask Tao Zhen about some things.

Tao Zhen also wanted to know about Yan Bei, but she didn't want to go to Duke Ning's mansion because the original owner almost killed Ning Yue when he was a child, and she was afraid that Princess Jing and Princess would cause trouble for her.

But Ning Hao told her to rest assured and invited her over in Ning Yan's name.
This is Tao Zhen's first visit to Ning Guo Gong's mansion. It is indeed a first-class big family. The house is very beautifully decorated. Ning Yan introduced Tao Zhen to the garden. Ning Guo Gong is a flower lover and has planted many flowers in the garden. Although the rare flowers and plants have not bloomed yet, Tao Zhen can already imagine how beautiful this garden will be in summer.I don't know if it was because he returned to the capital, but Tao Zhen felt that Ning Hao looked a lot more noble, and he looked like a nobleman whether he was dressed or dressed.

"How are you doing, Brother Ning?" Tao Zhen asked politely.

Ning Hao said: "Everything is fine, but..."

He looked at Tao Zhen, with amusement and sympathy on his face.

Tao Zhen: "What's wrong?"

Ning Hao's look was very meaningful.

Ning Hao said: "You don't know yet, right?"

"what?"

"Prince Data is coming to the capital."

Tao Zhen was stunned. The wife of the mayor of Baishi City had said before that a very powerful khan was born in Data and unified all the grassland tribes. He didn't expect that Dashun would come to Dashun so soon.

She had an ominous feeling.

Ning Hao said: "Yes, among those you killed with meritorious service back then was Prince Ji La, who was the brother of Prince Ji Ye who was sent to Dashun this time."

Tao Zhen "..."

It's really bad news.

"But you don't have to worry too much. When the report was filed, it was Huo Xing's name. Even if they wanted revenge, they would still look for Huo Xing. I will just tell Huo Xing later to let him pay attention."

Ning Hao's heavy breathing left Tao Zhen speechless.

Ning Hao said, "This is our Dashun land. Who do the Data people belong to?"

Next, Tao Zhenzhen followed up some things on the memorial. Ning Hao looked at the memorial clearly and concisely, and after a moment of silence he said, "Tao Zhen, you are really a talent."

Tao Zhen laughed dryly. She had done this kind of thing too much in her previous life, so this was nothing.

Ning Hao said, "You were a teacher at Yanbei Academy before, right?"

Tao Zhen nodded.

Ning Hao said: "Would you consider coming to the Yamen to work?"

Tao Zhen was stunned and pointed at himself: "Me?"

She said, "Can I?"

Ning Hao sat lazily on the chair: "You are much better than those acid writers who only have false appearances. It's just that your handwriting is a bit ugly. You have to go back and practice it."

Tao Zhen "..."

Tao Zhen didn't really want to go to the yamen to work. After all, in a patriarchal society, she didn't want to show up and be that special person and compete with the men in the entire feudal society. Moreover, she was busy making money. She didn't want to go to the yamen to work as Master Ning. cheap labor?
But Ning Hao gave her a proposal.

"Going to the Imperial College?" Tao Zhen asked, suppressing the ecstasy in his heart.

Ning Hao said: "Bring a few people out for me."

He threw the memorial on the table: "Look at what these people wrote, it will make you exhausted. I don't ask them to meet your standards, as long as there is no such nonsense."

What Ning Hao was talking about was not to work in the Imperial College, but to teach and bring out a few people like modern external hires.

The Imperial College was originally the place where Dashun selected officials. It needed some specialized talents, not just people who just knew how to recite poems and write a lot of gorgeous words at the beginning of the couplet but couldn't explain the key points.
