Although Wei Ji was close to King Zhao, he was not so bold as to directly argue with the prince, but just bowed down and argued: "The ministers act according to orders, please forgive Your Highness!" ”

Li Yan didn't look at Wei Ji, only stared at his little girl.

Although he smiled delicately, he could still see the sleepiness between his eyebrows.

This girl usually goes to bed quite early, and it must be Wei Ji who made a lot of trouble and woke her up.

Thinking of this, His Royal Highness the Prince's face turned a little colder, and said, "Why forgive me?" Your Majesty's will is for you to come and make trouble in Shangshu Mansion? ”

Wei Ji didn't understand, how did such a lustful and messy person sit firmly on the throne of the prince?

"Because Miss Zhu who entered the palace of the Chi family was robbed by thieves, His Majesty asked the minister to go to Chi Shangshu to see if there were any clues, and the minister just wanted to invite Chi Shangshu to see it, and there was no intention of arbitrary search!"

Miss Chi gasped and seemed shocked.

Wei Ji glanced at her, his mind turned around, and he calmed down.

Even Chi Changting's delicate daughter came out, and Chi Changting didn't appear in person, so it can be seen that there must be fraud in the house.

Nine times out of ten, Chi Changting is not there!

He didn't want to catch him, if His Royal Highness the Crown Prince continued to stop him, he would be "forced" to retreat, and he would only report truthfully when he returned to the palace.

As for whether Chi Changting is really in the house or not, it doesn't matter, what matters is what the palace thinks.

Thinking of this, Wei Ji already had the intention of retreating bravely.

At this time, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince said: "Chi Shangshu is drunk at the banquet tonight, I'm afraid I won't be able to wake up for a while, you go and ask someone to cook a bowl of sobering soup and feed him, and then call him up!" ”

This was said to Zhan Yu, and Zhan Yu immediately took the order to go in.

His Royal Highness the Crown Prince said again: "General Wei went to the outer hall with Gu to sit down, what kind of system did he become here!" ”

It's cooking decanting soup again, it's good life again, and you have to go to the outer hall, isn't this a delaying plan?

Wei Ji frowned, his mind turned sharply, and he thought about countermeasures.

Over there, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince had already turned his gaze to the little girl Chi who was guarding the door, and his voice suddenly softened: "Go back and rest, there is loneliness here." ”

Wei Ji's heart sank again when he heard this.

It seems that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince must protect the Chi family!

If it drags on like this, maybe it will be dragged until Chi Changting shows up, so it's better to leave early!

Wei Ji made up his mind, laughed dryly, and said, "Since Chi Shangshu can't wake up, the minister will-"

"What's that?" There was a lazy sound from inside the door, and Wei Ji's face suddenly changed.

When I looked up, I saw a person staggering out.

The long hair was scattered, a shirt was casually put on the shoulders, the middle shirt was loose, and even a part of the chest was exposed, a shirt was put on the shoulders, there was an impatient sneer on the corner of the lips, and there was a trace of dissatisfaction in the eyes.

"Daddy, you—You've been woken up?" Miss Chi turned around when she heard the movement, her tone surprised and confused.

As if he had just found out that his daughter was there, Chi Changting's face immediately changed, and while he was hurriedly covering his clothes, he asked embarrassedly, "Why did you run out?" As soon as he asked, his eyes were sharp, and he glared at Wei Ji, "But someone is rude to you?" ”

The little girl took the opportunity to run to her father to complain: "General Wei said that he would be polite to me!" ”

Chi Changting pulled her behind him and looked at Wei Ji murderously: "Why is General Wei not polite to my daughter?" When he spoke, he also rolled up his sleeves, which meant that he would do something if he didn't agree.

Wei Ji didn't understand, how did such a profligate and unscrupulous person sit on the position of the secretary of the Ministry of Rites and the general?

"Chi Shangshu misunderstood, just because Miss Zhu was robbed by thieves after entering the palace, His Majesty ordered the officials to ask for clues about Shangshu." Wei Ji said again about his intentions.

Chi Changting frowned, and said angrily: "People will also be robbed when they enter the palace?" Is General Wei on duty tonight? What's going on with you Jin Wuwei? Actually let the thief into the palace? Your Majesty's safety is actually in the hands of your group of wine bags and rice bags? ”

Wei Ji's face was red and white for a while, and he didn't know how to refute it, so he had to pretend not to hear it, and continued to say his own: "Can Ji Shangshu know the whereabouts of Miss Zhu?" ”

Chi Changting raised his eyebrows: "My junior sister was robbed by thieves, you came to ask me about my whereabouts?" What does that mean? ”

Wei Ji said: "Maybe Miss Zhu has escaped back, but Chi Shangshu doesn't know yet?" ”

Chi Changting sneered: "What, you want to raid my home?" This is also what Your Majesty means? ”

Wei Ji shut up.

Of course, the emperor did not say so.

Chi Changting was personally promoted by him, and he copied the Chi family for the sake of a woman, which did not do any good except to show that he was a faint king.

In case nothing is found, the courtiers' loyalty and history are like knives, which is a headache.

What's more, the news from the whistle that the beauty has escaped, and the possibility of coming back is very small.

It's just that who will be the master who helped the beauty escape?

Wei Ji's heart turned and asked: "The lower officials don't dare, since Chi Shangshu said so, Miss Zhu must not have returned, but I heard that Miss Zhu and two senior brothers are also in Chi Mansion, I don't know if they have any clues?" ”

Chi Changting smiled coldly and instructed Zhan Yu to invite Dou Huai and Wei Shaoyou.

When he saw Dou Huai and Wei Shaoyou, Wei Ji had nothing to say, and hugged his fists and said: "I'm bothered, the next official will leave!" ”

As soon as the words fell, there was a sound of a heavy object falling to the ground in the courtyard.

Chi Tang was behind Chi Changting, the closest to the courtyard gate, and he could hear it most clearly.

She turned her head suddenly, just in time to see a figure flickering in the room.

"It turns out that Chi Shangshu doesn't sleep alone......" Wei Ji said slowly, his tone could not hide his excitement.

Chi Tang's heart also lifted, and he nervously tightened the corners of his father's clothes.

And then—

Then she was driven away.

was stuffed by his father to His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, and was sent back to his room without saying anything.

Chi Tang didn't sleep for most of the night, just to wait for a result, how could he be so willing to be sent away?

Waiting for His Royal Highness the Crown Prince to leave, Chi Tang quietly came out again.

As soon as he touched the outside of his father's courtyard, he saw Wei Ji leading Jin Wuwei away.

Chi Tang carefully identified it for a while, and did not see Zhu Xian's figure, so he breathed a sigh of relief.

Before he could let go of his breath, he heard his father's voice that seemed to be smiling: "What are you hiding?" Don't get out yet!

It is impossible to roll.

Chi Tang ran out with his head down.

"Didn't you go back to sleep? What are you doing again? Is there anything you need to do here? Chi Changting looked at her angrily and funny.

Chi Tang saw that there was no one around, so he leaned in and whispered, "Daddy, is Uncle Zhu safe?" ”

Chi Changting looked at her vigilantly: "How do I know?" ”

Chi Tang pouted and said unhappily: "Only Brother Zhan is here, it's boring for Daddy to hide it from me, aren't you pretending to be drunk just to run out to save Uncle Zhu?" Otherwise, why don't I sleep in the middle of the night to guard the door for you? ”

Chi Changting's eyes were already filled with horror: "You, how do you know?" ”

His plan is so clear that even Ah Tang can see through it?
