Kaoru Yutai's heart suddenly chuckled. How could she forget the old injuries on Ye Chi's body, and she couldn't even see how they were injured like this, but because he never took the initiative to mention it in front of her, she didn't get to the bottom of it.

Ye Chi never mentioned his past, he usually seems to be inexplicably open-minded and even a little lacking in heart, and it is precisely such a person who often goes through countless ups and downs before he can stop his heart.

She believed that one day in the future, Ye Chi would take the initiative to tell her about him.

"The Illness of the Leaf Pond...... Isn't it curable?"

"Sick? Lord Ye is not sick, just an old one. Le Tong shook his head, as if he didn't think it was accurate, "Although it won't have any special impact, do you have any heart disease...... Maybe. ”

Kaoru Yutai breathed a sigh of relief at first, but when he heard the last sentence, he couldn't help but frown.

Maybe like her, because of her mother's affairs for many years, although the past has passed, but in the end it is a thorn in the heart, even if it is □□, it will leave a scar.

She learned more or less about Ye Chi's past from Chang Su and Su Yu, and knew that he was born in a very poor place, and he should have been helped by someone later, and he was promoted by King Lian to have his current status.

That's also a ...... Good luck, right?

Kaoru Tantai came back to his senses and heard a steady and comfortable breathing, only to find that Hitomi had fallen asleep on the table. The little guy smiled a little embarrassedly, "Why don't you go back first?" I'll take care of Miss." ”

Kaoru Tandai nodded, just as she wanted to go for a walk after eating, and walked around the city again before returning home.

The child who came to see the patient today probably had the same lung disease as Le Tong, but the look of the mother and son always made her feel very strange, so she looked at Duan Yan's life again in the study, his wife was killed with him that year, but the two had no children.

I think it's thinking too much. She silently closed the book, suddenly yawned, looked up, and seemed to have passed the second watch, and before she knew it, it was so late.

She stood in front of the window for a while, and suddenly felt that she should investigate not only Duan Yan, but also the net worth background of the rich man who had already been beheaded, so she went to the yamen with the lamp overnight.

The official guarding the door was startled by her sudden arrival, and stepped forward to ask, "My lord, is there anything wrong with it so late?"

Kaoru shook her head and said, "It's nothing, I can't sleep and come and see." ”

Although the two officials were skeptical, they would not question their boss in the end, and one of the older ones told her to pay more attention at night to avoid catching a cold.

Kaoru Tandai looked at him, didn't say anything, and responded with a smile.

At first, the people here did not think much of her, because she was young and a woman, but now they are getting acquainted with her, seeing her leave her alone, and occasionally bringing her some food.

She smiled unconsciously, and returned to the place where she had taken the file in the afternoon to look for the file about the murderer Jia Wenbin. The Jia family is a big family in Linzhou City, although it is a bit unbelievable that the head of the family killed people personally, but because of this, he had no wife and no children, and he lost his business at that time, so it is reasonable that he can't think about it for a while.

She brushed her fingertips over the row of books according to the position written on the index, and until she saw the end of the column, she did not find the one she wanted.

Kaoru Yutai was stunned for a moment, and found that the last one did not belong to this column, thinking that it was the wrong place when the main book was organized, so he took down the extra one, and after finding the original position, he found that it happened to be empty.

There is nothing surprising about the contents of a dossier in many places, but it is placed in the most inconspicuous place in this room, and it would not have been noticed unless it had been deliberately organized.

That is to say, it was not a mistake, but someone deliberately did it, and the record about Jia Wenbin that she was looking for was gone.

Kaoru Yutai pinched the index in the palm of his hand, and faintly felt that something was not good.

The suspect Jia Wenbin was beheaded not long ago, and although he had already been transferred to the Criminal Department, the case was still inseparable from Linzhou. The file was gone at this time, which obviously proved that King Lian's guess was correct - there was something strange about this case.

She didn't think there was anything suspicious about Jia Wenbin: If the murderer was an unknown person, there was a possibility that he was behind the murder, but this person was a wealthy businessman and had no family, and he was still in his own hands, and he had not escaped after killing people in public, so she could not think of any other reason than to have a grudge.

Wait a minute...... There is a feud.

Maybe it wasn't because Duan Yan cut off this person's financial route, as the confession of the Criminal Department said, but something unknown to everyone, so King Lian asked her to investigate whether Duan Yan's personality before his death was as honest and honest as he appeared.

Kaoru closed the door, went back outside and asked the two officials, "Did anyone come during the time I left in the afternoon until just now?"

The official didn't know why she was asking, and he thought for a while but didn't answer. They stand outside every day, and their lives are almost the same, and they can't tell anything abnormal after getting used to it, unless there are outsiders who will attract attention, and Kaoru Yutai and the others go in and out every day, as ordinary as eating and sleeping for them.

Kaoru Tantai said again, "Did anyone come in with a box that could hold something, or something?"

This sentence seemed to remind them of something, and the elderly official suddenly patted his head and said, "Master seems to have gone in with a bookcase, but he came out soon." ”

The other person also nodded and said, "There is such a thing, the master will occasionally come when he is resting." Noticing that Kaoru Tantai's face sank, he said nervously, "My lord, is something wrong?"

Kaoru didn't want them to notice anything, shook his head and said, "No, it's just that I lost a sachet and couldn't find it, maybe it fell somewhere else." ”

The two of them also understood the girl's thoughts, and they thought they had made something wrong and were a little cramped, so they couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief and said, "Adults go slowly." ”

***

When Kaoru arrived at the Yamen the next day, he acted as if nothing had happened, and he did not mention anything about the missing volume.

To her surprise, I don't know if it was because she didn't feel that she had been discovered, the master was more normal than her, writing, crossing her legs, chatting with the catcher, and she seemed to be the only one in the calm official mansion with a lot of turmoil in her heart.

She wasn't sure if the things were taken away by the master, after all, the two servants also had the possibility of lying, so she said lightly in front of the master: "Did the master sleep well last night?"

The master looked at her, his eyes were a little puzzled: "It's good, why did the adults suddenly ask that?"

"Of course, I care about my subordinates. Kaoru shrugged and said, "Master is the eldest in the yamen, I don't think you seem to be in good spirits, since it's okay, I'm relieved." ”

After she finished speaking, she smiled and continued to bow her head to write, her expression was very ordinary, casually observing her master's actions, but she couldn't see anything, and she didn't mention it again.

After leaving the yamen, Kaoru Yutai hurriedly finished eating and went to Le Tong. She always cared a little about the mother and son from before, and when she arrived, she happened to see Le Tong talking to the woman, and made a gesture to her silently.

Le Tong is so shrewd, although he can see the abnormalities in the mother and son, he must know that she will come, so he delayed the time for diagnosis, and sure enough, he waited for Kaoru Tai.

As soon as the woman saw her coming, she was a little restrained, and the chatterbox was also stopped, and she got up to leave, but Yutai Kaoru stopped them, and she no longer beat around the bush: "Why did the eldest lady hide when she saw me, didn't she do something wrong?"

When he heard this, not only the woman, but also the child cowered and ducked back. The little girl of the Le family felt that they looked pitiful, no matter how suspicious they were, they were just orphans and widows, and wanted to come up to persuade them, but they saw Le Tong raise his hand and signal him to leave it alone.

Yutai Kaoru said: "I think you can see that I am the governor of Linzhou, if you still refuse to say, I am afraid you will have to go to the government with me." ”

Although what she said was only bluffing, it worked very well for the woman, and she held the child with a pale face, and even tears were about to fall.

Yutai Kaoru was a little unbearable, and suddenly heard Le Tong said: "Aunt Mo, if you have any troubles, it is better to say it as soon as possible." ”

Mo Shi's expression was a little soothed when he heard this, but he was still a little afraid of Yutai Xun, and said, "We didn't do anything bad, we just ...... It's just that the child's father used to be a bandit, and after he was killed...... We also did not dare to take refuge with any relatives. ”

Although she said it vaguely, Kaoru Tandai roughly understood what it meant, and noticed that she used the word "killed".

When people talk about their relatives, even if the other party has done bad things, they often subconsciously avoid the ugly descriptions of "Fufa", but she can clearly use "death" and so on, but she uses these two words.

Le Tong also noticed the unusualness in these words, and asked, "The 'killed' that the eldest lady said...... What does that mean?"

Mo Shi was suddenly startled, lowered his head and didn't dare to speak anymore, until Yutai Kaoru asked: "Is the mountain occupied by your deceased husband the Jishan Mountain in the north of the city?"

She would ask about this place, because this place was the lost land that Duan Yan successfully recovered back then, and this kid was surnamed Duan, and there were too many coincidences, which meant that it was not a coincidence.

Mo knew that it would be useless to hide it any longer, so he nodded, took his son's hand and wanted to leave, but Kaoru finally grasped some clues, how could he really let them leave.

"What is your relationship with the imperial historian Duan Yan who was killed in Linzhou?"

Mo Shi turned his back to them, and he couldn't see the expression on his face, but the child suddenly burst into tears. Mo had no choice but to squat down and pat his son on the back, but he still refused to speak.

"Is it your husband?"

Mohs closed his eyes and shook his head.

Yutai Kaoru frowned, she originally thought that this child might be Duan Yan's illegitimate child, but Mo Shi didn't seem to be telling a lie, and things were a little different from what she guessed.

The boy couldn't stop crying, and he cried and cried and fell asleep, so the little boy had to take him into the house to sleep. Le Tong saw that Mo Shi was not very happy, and said unhurriedly: "Auntie, his condition is not good, I will leave soon, and I guess I won't be able to help much." If you tell the truth, there may be a way to change that. ”

Mo Shi sat in the hall facing the two of them, his expression was indescribably sluggish, and he seemed to be a little angry, and he spoke for a long time: "Duan Yan is my husband's cousin, he ...... It's just a brute. ”

……

That night, Kaoru Yutai didn't leave the inn until after the second watch. Mo Shi almost explained everything he knew to her, cried and said a lot, and finally fainted from crying.

Le Tong had no choice but to let the mother and son stay temporarily, and asked without looking back: "You want to overturn the case?"

Kaoru shook her head, shrugged her shoulders and said, "Even if there is an inside story, the case is closed, and there is no point in overturning the case, but-" She paused, "The criminal department is going to run around and leave." ”

It is true that Duan Yan was killed by Jia Wenbin, a merchant in Linzhou, but his confession was false. She didn't know who did it, but what she did was that this was the result that King Lian wanted to investigate.

After saying goodbye to Le Tong, she went straight home, wrote a letter, and sent it to the capital urgently, and at the end she remembered something, and wrote another one, it was rare to have a lot of things to say, and even the beginning was considered for a long time.

"I miss you so much. ”

***

Not long after, the capital came to the end of the year, and naturally it was busy. The little emperor has been observing Ye Chi recently in the absence of government affairs, but he can't come to any conclusions, feeling that he is no different from the original, and he is not as abnormal as others say.

They must be jealous, Ye Xiangming is so good, where is he perverted.

Seeing that he was about to turn twelve years old this year, and the little emperor had more and more things to learn, he was dazzled, and when he went to find King Lian one day, he saw that the other party was reading a letter, and after waiting for a long time, he didn't see the other party make a sound, so he had to whisper: "What is the emperor looking at?"

King Lian didn't answer, but said with a little regret: "Wei Shangshu is really why bother. ”

The little emperor tilted his head, not quite understanding, and he didn't know what was going on in Linzhou.

After chatting with Princess Jinshu last time, he felt the need to meet the new governor of Linzhou to see if he was as tall and mighty as rumored, and could trample Ye Chi under his feet.

He couldn't go out of the palace, and he couldn't just call people for interest, so he secretly asked King Lian if there was any way for him to see this person. He didn't know what happened later, but he only knew that King Lian said that he gave Linzhou Governor a chance, and it was up to her to decide whether she would grasp it.

The little emperor lowered his head, and King Lian suddenly handed him the letter in his hand, and at this time, Ye Chi also walked in, for some reason his face was full of red light, his eyes were happy, and he even walked lightly.

The little emperor stared at him in surprise.

In the past, even if there was any good thing, Ye Chi just smiled lightly, he was famous for his handsome and elegant appearance in the court, and many little palace maids were waiting for him to accompany Emperor Ming every day. The little emperor held his chin and began to guess whether the Ye Chi rumors outside were true or not.

King Lian on the side also noticed this expression, but he was not as surprised as his nephew, and motioned to the little emperor to hand over the letter to Ye Chi, sighed and said, "The criminal department is over there...... What a bonus. ”

Ye Chi looked down and raised his eyes lightly.

The people on Wei Hu's side of the criminal department have always regarded the regent as a thorn in their side, and since Emperor Ming ascended the throne, he has been secretly fighting with King Lian for many years, but recently he has not been as troubled as before, which makes him feel a little strange.

He took the letter handed by the little emperor, and guessed that King Lian had secretly asked someone to investigate something, so he gently unfolded it.

The letter was not long, only one page of content, but the first thing he saw was not the content, but the handwriting. In his eyes, in addition to being recognizable, this handwriting is simply the most beautiful word in the world, and every stroke is worth cherishing.

He suddenly let out a "whoop" in excitement.

Seeing this reaction, the little emperor covered his chest.

The author has something to say: unconsciously it's so late [vomiting blood

The little emperor said that his spirit was hurt: someone is really a male god's configuration, shaking m's heart.
