Although Yun Peichang's mansion was also given by the emperor, the size and scale were less than one-tenth of the Chengguo Mansion, and Gu Jue and Yu Zhiyan only brought 2,000 soldiers, but even ants surrounded the entire mansion with nowhere to hide.

Yun Peichang, who rushed to hear the news, was disheveled, obviously resting, and he was followed by Wen Jingxian, with a nervous face.

Gu Jue and Yu Zhiyan slowly entered the mansion under the support of the guards, and the surrounding guards were holding bright torches in their hands, and the scorching fire burned Yu Zhiyan's cheeks a little.

"I don't know what General Gu brought these people over late at night." Yun Peichang quickly regained his composure, and asked while saluting in a proper manner.

The first to speak was Yu Zhiyan, her voice was hoarse, "I lost something in the Chengguo Mansion, and my cousin-in-law went to the mansion again today, so I have to look it up and clear her suspicions." ”

Hearing this, Yun Peichang's face changed, and he couldn't help but turn around and glance at Wen Jingxian beside him, but saw that her eyes were slightly red, and she looked frightened.

"The concubine didn't take anything."

Seeing his wife's panic, Yun Peichang protected her behind him, and then said coldly: "The front foot just sent a few carts of things, and the back foot is about to come to raid the house, General Gu, please tell me what the reason is." ”

Hearing him say this, Yu Zhiyan only wanted to find a crack in the ground to get into, she looked embarrassed, "Cousin, don't blame me, I lost something important." ”

Gu Jue also lost his temper when he saw Yu Zheyan's appearance, "The defense map in the secret box of the general's study has been stolen, but anyone who is suspected will be interrogated." ”

Hearing the stolen things, Yun Peichang's face suddenly changed.

Gu Jue gave an order, and immediately all the guards began to search the mansion, until the last star in the sky was hidden by the faint morning light, and the guards came to report, and nothing was found.

In this search, Yu Zhiyan had mixed feelings in her heart, she hoped to find it, but she hoped that she would not be able to find it. If it is found, Yun Peichang will inevitably be punished, and if it can't be found, how should Gu Jue face such a crime.

Hearing the guard's reply, Gu Jue's eyes turned gloomy, he took a deep breath, and then said coldly: "Since this is the case, I will take Mrs. Wen and her maid Fang'er back to the mansion for a good interrogation." ”

Who doesn't know Gu Jue's temperament, if he takes him back for interrogation, where is there any way to live.

The first to be frightened was Fang'er's girl, she came out of the crowd, but knelt in front of Yun Peichang and Wen Jingxian with a whimper, "The slave didn't do this, you have to believe the slave and the maid—"

Wen Jingxian wanted to help the maid up, but saw that she suddenly pulled up the hairpin on her head and aimed it at her neck, she turned her head to look at Gu Jue and Yu Zhiyan, "The slave is willing to prove her innocence with death, I just ask you to let my young lady go." ”

Before everyone could react, they saw that the sharp tip of the hairpin in her hand suddenly plunged into her flesh and blood, and then fell to the ground without breath.

As soon as she saw her maid die so miserably, Wen Jingxian's body couldn't stand it and fainted suddenly.

Yun Peichang hurriedly hugged her in his arms, and then said with a solemn face, "Weichen is willing to guarantee with her life, she will never do such a thing." ”

Gu Jue sneered: "Your life is far from being worth the defense map, this maid dies quickly, and it is difficult not to make people suspicious." ”

Yu Zhiyan stepped forward and stood in front of Gu Jue, her lacquered eyes were pleading, and her long black satin-like hair was scattered, "I am willing to guarantee with Xiang Shang's head, my cousin and sister-in-law have nothing to do with this matter." ”

The silence around seemed to be only their breath of each other, Gu Jue knew that he couldn't track her down anymore, he slowly helped her up, and then smiled gently, "I don't believe anyone, but I believe you." ”

Hearing this, Yun Peichang's solemn face slowly eased, and he knew that if it weren't for Yu Zhiyan pleading beside him today, Wen Jingxian would not be able to escape the crime.

When the sky was completely bright, Gu Jue took her out of the Zhuangyuan Mansion, and the vendors on the side of the road had already sat up to buy and sell, throwing their sleeves and shouting constantly.

The two of them did not ride in a sedan chair, but walked slowly, and no one knew what was in front of them.

When the vendors and pedestrians saw thousands of ironclad soldiers walking in front of their shops, they didn't know what was going on, so they just hid in the shops one by one and secretly watched.

When the two of them passed by the wonton shop, Yu Zhiyan turned his head and took a closer look. After a whole night, her hungry body went limp.

"I haven't eaten this since I broke my stomach a few years ago outside the house." He slowly stopped, looked at her and smiled faintly, "It's a rare opportunity today, let's try it." ”

Yu Zhiyan knew where he wanted to eat by himself, but he said this when he saw that she was hungry.

In this trance, Gu Jue said a few words to the head of the guard behind him, and then entered the small shop with Yu Zhiyan.

Although the vendors in the store didn't know Gu Jue, they were naturally a little frightened and at a loss when they saw that the official robe on his body was also a genuine official.

With a faint smile on his face, Yu Zhiyan said to the vendor, "I'm tired of bringing two bowls of hot wontons." ”

The peddler did it quickly, but after a while, he brought two bowls of piping hot ravioli, thick with white smoke and smelling very good.

Gu Jie and Yu Zhiyan both ate in silence, but after a moment's work, Yu Zhiyan saw that Gu Jue's bowl was empty. He still looked unsatisfied, and couldn't help but hook a faint smile on the corner of his mouth.

"I can't eat it, so I'll give you a few." Before he could reply, Yu Zhiyan picked up the spoon and flicked a few into his bowl.

Gu Jue smiled lightly, and his voice was a little weak, "I think that I am a first-class general, and I want to share a bowl of wontons with my wife, but it's really interesting." ”

It was originally a joke, but Yu Zhiyan only felt very sad in his ears when he heard it, and a tear fell down his cheek into the bowl, "What should we do?" ”

Seeing the worry on her face, Gu Jue stretched out his hand and pinched her pale face, and said with a smile: "Don't worry, it's okay, I will enter the palace to ask for guilt in a while, and no one will dare to embarrass me." ”

Seeing what he said so solemnly, Yu Zhiyan's worries were slightly put down.

Gu Jue scooped a round wonton into his spoon, then slowly blew it and handed it to her lips, "It's rare that you are worried about my affairs, but I am really touched." ”

Yu Zhiyan swallowed the wonton, but it was like a fish in her throat, she raised her eyes, "I'll wait for you to come back in the house." ”
