The sound of the guards walking by and the sound of rain sounded outside the courtyard, and Qiao'er, who was covered by the guards, did not dare to move, and clutched her sleeve tightly.

"It's okay for the time being. Hearing that the guards outside had walked away, Wei Xiwan let go of Qiao'er, "Now you immediately wipe off the footprints in my room and at the door." ”

"Yes. Qiao Er had already come back to her senses and realized that her master might have caused some trouble outside, and now was not the time to ask more, so she immediately went out of the room to wipe away the footprints of Wei Xiwan one by one.

Wei Xiwan turned around and quickly took off his wet night clothes, hid in the corner, and changed into the clothes he wore when he went to bed on weekdays. As soon as it was changed, Qiao Er had just taken care of the outside, and then came in and wiped all the water traces on the floor of the room, leaving no traces.

After a while, there was a movement outside the door, and Wei Xiwan walked out of the room wearing a robe and a slightly messy hair, with a little tiredness on her face, enough to make people believe that she had been woken up from her sleep.

"Lord Wei, excuse me. The guards greeted each other symbolically, and a few of them went into the guard's room to check on it, but found no clues, and quickly left again.

As Wei Xi expected, if the so-called assassin was not caught, the guards and generals in the palace would definitely interrogate and inspect them one by one, but fortunately, she reacted quickly enough and hid her night clothes well enough.

"It's okay tonight, let's go back to sleep first. Wei Xiwan looked at Qiao Er, who had been in a little nervous state, and said, fortunately, she stayed in the room and waited for her to come back, otherwise it would be too late to remove the traces by herself.

"My lord, I'll stay with you in this room tonight!" Qiao Er was a little scared, and she was even more worried about what would happen to Wei Xi's party.

"That's fine. Wei Xi nodded in agreement, then turned around and yawned and went back to the room, as if she had really stayed in the room to sleep tonight.

The air after heavy rain is always very fresh, and the early morning sun shines through the window screen into Wei Xi's room at night, but the person on the bed still hasn't woken up.

Qiao Er originally thought that she was sleepy, so she went to bed late, but now she suddenly noticed that something was wrong, and hurriedly walked to Wei Xiwan's side, reached out and probed her forehead, but was frightened by the hot temperature.

"My lord!" Qiao Er called softly, but did not see any reaction from Wei Xiwan. In a hurry, she planned to run out to call the doctor, but as soon as she opened the door and stepped out, she slammed into a thick chest.

Qiao'er, who was panicked for a while, wanted to retreat, but was tripped by the threshold, and leaned back with an unstable center of gravity, thinking that she would fall to the ground without image in the next second.

"Be careful!" Su Yilin's deep voice sounded, and his big hand quickly grabbed her slender willow waist, and gently took her into his arms again.

Qiao Er was holding Su Yilin's shoulders with her hands at the moment, and Su Yilin's hands were tightly wrapped around her waist, looking at her for a moment with her head down.

Realizing the ambiguous posture of the two, the young Qiao Er instantly flushed her cheeks, let go of her hands and jumped out of Su Yilin's arms, her heart beating so fast for some reason.

"Su ...... Sue-sama. Joel lowered her head and spoke like a mosquito.

"Huh?" Su Yilin looked at the shy little woman in front of him with interest, why didn't he find out before that this Qiao Er was so cute.

"What do you want to do when you rush out?" Seeing that Qiao Er just lowered her head and didn't dare to look at him, and didn't answer, Su Yilin stopped teasing her.

"Ahh

Qiao'er, who was blaming herself, no longer paid attention to Su Yilin, and immediately bypassed him and ran out.

Wei Xiwan woke up in a daze, and saw Qiao Er sitting on the edge of the bed looking at her with a worried face, Su Yilin standing aside, and a doctor-like person beside her.

"It's fine. Wei Xi probed her forehead at night, although it was very hot, but she knew her body, this fever was nothing at all, and she could sleep well.

"Why do you have a cold and fever for no reason?" asked Su Yilin.

"How do I know. As soon as Wei Xiwan's voice fell, the imperial doctor spoke immediately.

"My lord, this is a cold and wind, or a wind chill from the rain. ”

As soon as these words came out, Su Yilin's eyes instantly became a little deeper and more solemn, and Wei Xiwan's eyes flickered slightly, but he just cleverly covered up the past with the ginger soup that Qiao Er handed over.

"What did Master Wei do last night?" After the imperial doctor went out, Su Yilin looked serious and looked at Wei Xiwan and asked.

"I haven't been in good health lately, but I was woken up by the guards last night, saying that I was going to search for the assassin, and I stood in the corridor for a while, probably because I had a cold at that time. Wei Xiwan replied lightly, without the slightest panic.

"Yes, it was windy and rainy outside the porch last night, so blame me for not taking good care of the adults. Joel also accosted.

"So that's ......" Su Yilin suddenly laughed, "It seems that this assassin must be caught, and it actually caused Lord Wei to catch a serious illness with wind cold." ”

"It's not such an exaggeration to be seriously ill, but the assassin still has to be caught, otherwise it is estimated that one day it will not be a serious illness, but a whimper. Wei Xiwan also put on a shallow smile and looked at Su Yilin and said.

An indescribably strange atmosphere permeated the two of them, making Qiao Er not know what to do for a while.

"Your Excellency, it's time for you to get some rest. Qiao Er suddenly said to Wei Xiwan, breaking the silence between the two and quietly giving Su Yilin an eviction order.

"Then I'm leaving. After Su Yilin finished speaking, he turned around and left, and before leaving, he also looked at Qiao Er, who was covering Wei Xi's quilt at night.

"Bring pen and paper. As soon as Su Yilin left, Wei Xiwan immediately drew a brief map with pen and paper and handed it to Qiao Er, "Go and check, where is this the palace?"

"Yes. ”

Although she didn't hear the specific content last night, she could vaguely feel that the content of the conversation might be unfavorable to the prince, and the top priority now is to know what place it is, and after confirming her identity, she can better speculate.

Too womb.

"But what clues are there?" the crown prince Wang Chengchen sat in the lobby and asked the guard general last night.

"Back to Your Highness, it rained heavily last night, and all traces such as footprints were washed away, and there are no clues. However, after investigation, there were no casualties in the palace, and no property was lost. ”

"No clues?" Wang Chengchen began to feel a little unhappy, it was another case without clues, just like the theft of the treasury at the beginning, those officials who investigated also said that there were no clues, and it was not until Wei Xi went to investigate the case later that there were so few clues.

"Wei Xi's late ......" seemed to suddenly remember something, Wang Chengchen almost forgot that there was such a person, and he was still grounded by him.

"The order, Wei Xi will lift the grounding on the same day and ask her to come and see me. ”
