Lady Wan Guan

Chapter 73 This Old Fox

When Ji Yunchen heard this, she was quite surprised. It was such a coincidence that she rescued Shangguan Zhaoyang as soon as she entered the city.

Moreover, she knew who Shangguan Zhaoyang was, she also knew Shangguan Nanzhi, and even knew that Shangguan Nanzhi's name could scare Qin Sirang and others.

This woman was becoming increasingly invisible to him.

That night, Ji Yunchen entered the back office of Dali Temple.

Gu Zhouting lit incense in his study and was sorting out files.

Mo Yu could be heard whispering outside the door... "Who?"

"I."

A cold voice sounded.

Gu Zhouting frowned slightly: "Mo Yu, let him come in."

Ji Yunchen entered the study, found a chair and sat down, poured himself tea, and felt at ease, as if this was his home.

Gu Zhou continued writing his dossier without even raising his eyelids.

"The Queen Mother let you out of the palace so soon?"

This guy was the Queen Mother's pet peeve, and none of the other princes enjoyed him.

Ji Yunchen snorted: "Fortunately I left the palace, Zhaoyang was bullied."

Gu Zhouzhi's eyes turned cold: "Qin Sirang?"

"You still know it's him. Zhaoyang has been bullied by him in the past three years. You promised you that you would take good care of Zhaoyang. How did you take care of him?"

Gu Zhouting was silent. He knew that Qin Silang would trouble Zhaoyang from time to time, but they didn't do anything too outrageous. The law could not punish them, so he could only give a warning.Now that the daughter of the Qin family has become the princess, Uncle Dongping's family is in trembling, and Qin Sirang is becoming more and more arrogant.

"What did Qin Sirang do to Zhaoyang?" Gu Zhou stopped and asked.

"When I arrived, Zhaoyang was beaten so badly that his face was bruised and bruised, and An and his hand bones were broken."

Gu Zhou stopped and said, "I know, but I shouldn't need to take action this time."

"What do you mean?"

"Tomorrow is the day when Zhaoyang enters the palace. The emperor summons Zhaoyang at the end of every month. If Zhaoyang is beaten today, he should be the one who took the initiative to get beaten!"

Uh……

Ji Yunchen felt resentful, this old fox couldn't hide anything from him.

Zhaoyang has grown up and knows how to be patient when it's time to be patient and take action when it's time to take action.

Indeed, even if they complained about the indifferent bullying, the emperor would not do anything to Qin Silang and the others. At most, he would reprimand them verbally. In the emperor's eyes, this was just children's play.

But if the emperor sees Zhaoyang injured, and then learns that Zhaoyang has been bullied by them, the result will be different.

Even if the emperor wanted to take care of Uncle Dong Ping's face and the face of the princes and ministers, he could not bear the accusation of not taking good care of Zhaoyang and making Shangguan's heroes uneasy underground.

"I met Mrs. Jiang today."

Gu Zhou stopped and said calmly: "Really?"

"She used Nan Zhi to give her a dream today, saying that her younger brother was being bullied, and asked her to send a message to the people who bullied Zhaoyang, and that she would kill him at night, which scared Qin Sirang and others."

"You said she is a girl who grew up in Ningchuan and has never been to the capital. Even if she has heard about Shangguan's family, she knows Zhaoyang's name. Don't you think it's strange? Even if people from the capital , most of them only know that there is another Shangguan Wulang in the Shangguan family, but they don’t know Wulang’s name.”

"I asked Zhaoyang carefully, and Zhaoyang said that she asked who Shangguan Zhaoyang was as soon as she arrived."

Gu Zhouting rubbed his eyebrows, and another strange thing happened.

"I'll check it out."

Even if this incident didn't happen, he was still going to find out the details of Jiang Wan Ning. "There is another thing that I couldn't say before, but I can say it now. On the night when Luo Du and others died, I saw her coming back from outside at around [-]:[-] pm. I asked her what she was doing? She said she wanted to We went to kill the Dayuan people, but we were late and someone took action first."

Gu Zhouting was both surprised and not surprised. What was not surprising was that Ji Yunchen interrogated Jiang Wanning alone and even Chen Qilang was not allowed to observe. There must be a reason for this.Surprisingly, she, a weak woman, actually wanted to kill someone?
"This case has been solved." Gu Zhou stopped.

Ji Yunchen sneered: "What's wrong with you? You're just dealing with Prince Su He. Don't you want to know the truth?"

Gu Zhouting handed him a letter.

Ji Yunchen took it. Inside was an investigation and a corpse.

"Actually, this case is very simple. Didn't you notice? In the entire inn, only the window bolts in Huayicheng's room are new, and the people in the inn that night all checked in in the afternoon. It seems that these people are related to the case. It’s not big, but it’s unlikely that Hua Yicheng can handle this case alone, he must have helpers.”

"I asked someone to investigate Hua Yicheng. The investigation was just delivered today, which just confirmed my suspicion."

"Four months ago, Luo Du and others went south and stayed at this inn. Huayicheng's wife passed by the inn when she came back from her parents' home and rested at the inn. Huayicheng's wife died four months ago. Neighbors of the Hua family said that the Hua family’s wife accidentally fell down on the way back from her parents’ home. Unfortunately, she hit her head and died.”

"However, there are many bruises on the body of the wife of the Hua family on the body of the corpse. You should think about it."

Ji Yunchen clenched his fists, and veins popped out in his clenched hands.

He punched the arm of the chair.

"These damn Dayuan people deserve to die."

"And Hu Quan is a distant cousin of the wife of the Hua family. This time she went to Mao County to investigate the case. It is said that Hu Quan took the initiative to ask for help. His room was arranged next to Luo Du. This was a risky move, or he would be heavily suspected. Or he’ll be ruled out first.”

"So, it was Hua Yicheng and Hu Quan who made it together?" Ji Yunchen remembered that the one-and-a-half-inch footprints mentioned by Jiang Wanning, Hu Quan was among the people who fit this size.

"There was another person who entered Luo Du's room that night, but he didn't go to kill anyone, but to steal something."

Ji Yunchen thought for a moment: "Is it Zheng Guan? He went out that night, but he went out for a short time, so I didn't doubt him."

Gu Zhou paused and nodded: "Yes, it's him. He came from Ningzhou on Nanjiang Road. If I guessed correctly, he has been with Luo Du and others, and has been looking for an opportunity to strike. He found it at the inn. Chance."

"But how did his things get into Madam Jiang's hands? Don't tell me, you didn't help Madam Jiang cover up, that dagger was given to you by me."

Gu Zhouting's lips curled up: "The incident happened suddenly, and I took out the dagger. I didn't want to hide it from you."

"Zheng Guan stuffed the thing into Lady Jiang's food box. He entrusted it to the right person. Lady Jiang took the risk to keep the thing. Moreover, when I asked her, she hid it for Zheng Guan."

She is a brave, resourceful and righteous woman.

"What on earth is it?"

"A list, a list of all the spies on Nanjiang Road who were bribed by the Dayuan people."

Ji Yunchen gasped. No wonder Prince Su He rushed to the inn in person and sneaked around to look for things.

"Where is the list now?"

"I asked Jiuli to be put back on Luo Du, otherwise do you think I can make Prince Suhe withdraw his troops at the expense of me by holding him up for a few long nights?"

"How can you return it to him? It's such an important thing." Ji Yunchen was anxious.

Gu Zhou stopped looking at Ji Yunchen like an idiot and pointed at his head.

Ji Yunchen breathed a sigh of relief: "... Just write it down. None of these shameless people who are willing to be traitors will be spared."

Sometimes I really feel jealous of Gu Zhouding's brain. How did it grow?

Even though he concealed two important clues, Gu Zhouting solved the case effortlessly.

"Now that the case is solved, what do you plan to do with Hua Yicheng and others?"

Gu Zhouting smiled half-heartedly: "It's been dealt with. I beat him fifty times and walked away limping."

Ji Yunchen knew in his heart that there was water in the fifty big boards. If he really played the fifty big boards firmly, it would be strange to be able to walk out of Dali Temple on his own.
