Su Zhi and Yue Xiu arrived a little farther together, and Yue Xiu was already impatient and hurriedly spoke.

"I just got the news from Xi Zhu, saying that there is movement in Mafu!"

Su Zhi was not very surprised, it was what he expected, and he only asked, "Did that person catch it?" ”

Yue Xiu shook his head: "This... The messenger didn't say anything, in short, he didn't arrest anyone immediately, Xi Zhu wanted to follow the person to see who was in contact with him, and there was no other news for the time being. ”

Xi Zhu's approach is reasonable, Su Zhi thought about it, glanced back at the dim candlelight Chaolu Palace, and then said: "That is the case, I am resting in the side hall tonight, and if there is any news, come to me as soon as possible, don't quarrel with the princess." ”

"Yes."

After speaking, Yue Xiu still didn't move, and Su Zhihu looked at him suspiciously: "What, what's the matter?" ”

Yue Xiu waved his hand again and again: "It's okay, it's okay......"

As he spoke, he took two steps back, turned around and left, only walked a few steps, but his steps were stunned, and he suddenly turned around, and his face was aggrieved.

"Lord Wang, you leave everything to Xi Zhu to do, even if you don't let me go, let me know and know, so that I don't worry ......about it in vain."

What Yue Xiu said was that Su Zhi was imprisoned in Dali Temple this time.

Su Zhi had already understood this situation, he planned it, he wanted to take this opportunity to figure out Ma Lian's affairs, and he entered Dali Temple, only letting Xi Zhu stare at Ma Lian's movements, which was indeed ignoring Yue Xiu.

Seeing Yue Xiu's aggrieved look, Su Zhi smiled: "The most important thing, didn't I leave it to you?" ”

Yue Xiu didn't know why: "What, what?" ”

I just thought that Su Zhi had arranged some important task that he had forgotten, Yue Xiu's heart tightened, and he stammered a little when he spoke.

Su Zhi said: "Protect the princess's business." ”

Yue Xiu was speechless for a while, and cried for a while: "This, what kind of task is this?" ”

Su Zhi straightened his expression and said very seriously: "The safety of the princess is the first priority. ”

Yue Xiu pursed his lips: "I'm afraid it's your thoughts, the princess doesn't think so......"

Seeing Su Zhi's surprised face, Yue Xiu thought that Su Zhi was curious about the princess's thoughts, so he hurriedly took two steps forward, came to Su Zhi's side, looked around mysteriously, and then said in a low voice: "I found that the princess has two faces!" ”

Su Zhi couldn't help laughing, laughed for a moment, and pretended to be serious and asked, "Oh? Tell me about it. ”

Yue Xiu thought that Su Zhi didn't believe it, and hurriedly said: "The princess is very gentle and obedient in front of you, but in the past few days you have been locked up in Dali Temple, and I found that the princess is like a different person, not like a weak woman in speaking and acting, but like you carved out of a mold." ”

These words fell on Su Zhi's ears, Su Zhi's face was silent, but his heart was full of joy, pursed his lips to hide his smile, and he reached out and pulled his sleeves.

"This king is not here, she naturally has to be stronger, what's the matter?"

"No, no, no, the princess is not pretending to be strong, I look at it, and I always feel that she is very handy."

"You think too much......"

Yue Xiu just felt like this, but after all, there was no substantial evidence, so he didn't try to persuade Su Zhi, but returned to the topic of Fang Cai.

"Since the safety of the princess is the first priority, it is better for the prince... You leave this top task to Xi Zhu, and I'll do other unimportant things! ”

Su Zhi looked at Yue Xiu with a smile on his face, tilted his head and raised his eyebrows: "This task is still yours." ”

"Why!"

Yue Xiu wailed, his voice was louder, causing Su Zhi to glare at him, he quickly covered his mouth, only revealing a pair of mournful eyes looking at Su Zhi.

Su Zhi didn't pay attention to it, turned around and was about to go to the side hall to rest, Yue Xiu didn't dare to say any more, and left in a huff.

Yue Xiu only thought that Su Zhi said that he had to be an excuse to prevaricate him, but he didn't know that before Hua Yi came back, this matter could indeed only be done by him.

Su Zhi is a very possessive person, since he married Shen Luo, he was upset when others looked at her more, and it was really a last resort to let Yue Xiu a man go to escort him, so he eagerly summoned Hua Yi back from elsewhere.

Before Hua Yi came back, he only had two choices, Xi Zhu and Yue Xiu, Xi Zhu was already quite hostile to Shen Luo, and he was very defensive, let him go, but he was afraid that he would not be able to protect him, but he would make trouble, so there was only Yue Xiu.

Fortunately, now that Hua Yi is back, Su Zhi has finally calmed down in his heart, but Su Zhi never expected that this stability would become a problem for his henchmen in the future.

In the second half of the night, Xi Zhu really came to the news, saying that he had arrested a person, and after Su Zhi got dressed, Xi Zhu had already brought the person back to the Regent's Mansion.

But Xi Zhu brought back not only a person, but also a corpse.

The living person was hit by Xi Zhu's **, and he was still in a coma, so Xi Zhu first confessed to the corpse.

"Lord Wang, this corpse is the son of the housekeeper of Ma Lian's Mansion, and his subordinates followed this kid to find him today."

Xi Zhu said, pointing to the unconscious man tied to the side, and continued: "I originally wanted to hear what they said, so I didn't do it immediately, how do I know that as soon as the two met, this person directly killed the kid, and he was the only one left alive." ”

Su Zhi paced two steps beside the corpse, and then glanced at the unconscious man again.

"Take it down and watch it, don't let people die, starve him for two days and then come to interrogate."

"Yes."

Xi Zhu replied, glanced behind him, and immediately two of his subordinates stepped forward to carry the unconscious man down.

After the people were carried away, Su Zhi dismissed the other guards in the courtyard, leaving only Yue Xiu and Xi Zhu.

"Last time you asked you to check the origin of Xin'er, how did you check?"

Su Zhi's words were said to Xi Zhu, but he beckoned to Yue Xiu, and the two of them squatted down together and began to carefully examine the corpses on the ground.

When Xi Zhu heard this, his body was slightly stiff as he stood aside, and his face showed shame, and the incident seemed to be vivid.

After a while, Xi Zhucai said: "My subordinates have carefully investigated, and there is nothing suspicious about her origin, it is true that she was sold due to the lack of money in the family, and there are no relatives around, unless it is ......."

"Say."

Su Zhi lowered his head and looked at the knife wounds on the corpse by the faint candlelight.

"Unless someone from the household department helped her create a fake identity......"

There was nothing special about the knife wound on the corpse, just a little, a knife killing, indicating that the man who did it was specially here to kill him, and he was used to doing this kind of killing.

Su Zhi stood up, took the handkerchief handed by Yue Xiu and wiped his hands, his eyes were cold and clear.

"I can't imagine that a marriage will blow up so many ghosts hidden in the shadows, interesting."
