At that moment, Bai Qiurui suddenly grasped the most important point in her mind.

In the original book, wasn't Wei Yuanlong, the Marquis of Zhenbei, won the honor of being a marquis precisely because of this battle to pacify the frontier?

And Wei Yuanlong, the Marquis of Zhenbei, had a close relationship with Han Chengyu, the king of Ning, in private.

Bai Qiurui continued to look back, and this time, she found several unusual places.

"Wei Zhongchen, the left waiter of the Criminal Department, Shi Yan Mingyu, the right waiter of the Criminal Department, and Wailang, a member of the Household Department...... Aren't these the same officials who were killed in the ghost soldier case? ”

Bai Qiurui couldn't help but speak, she looked at the name on the manuscript, and her heart was already turbulent.

She had doubted before that the person who died in the ghost soldier homicide case would be the official who reviewed the case of treason against the enemy of the Qinglong Army.

Now it seems that this is an ironclad fact!

"That's right, the person behind the ghost soldier case disappeared overnight after the accident in King Ning's mansion, but this case is not over yet."

Shen Yuan had already eaten all the almond tofu in the porcelain cup, and Bai Qiurui saw that his words and deeds were solemn, but his mind inexplicably appeared in his mind that he was eating obediently when he was just shaking his mind.

Trying to restrain her urge to laugh, Bai Qiurui blinked and said, "My lord, have you already found an important clue?" ”

As soon as Bai Qiurui finished speaking, Shen Yuan had already looked up at her.

"I'll investigate the next case, you're out alone, it's dangerous to return every night, go back first."

Bai Qiurui was still speculating about what kind of clue it was, but Shen Yuan suddenly said such a sentence.

"It's not yet noon, and you're going to drive me away, my lord?"

Bai Qiurui was incomprehensible, and before noon arrived, she began to worry about her safety on the way home?

She is currently in the most heavily guarded criminal department in Kyoto, who will find her when she goes out?

Bai Qiurui was about to say something more, but Shen Yuan suddenly spoke: "I have something important to go out, I'm afraid it's inconvenient for you to be here." ”

Bai Qiurui came back to her senses at this time, it turned out that Shen Yuan was about to go out.

However, as soon as he said this, Bai Qiurui became even more curious: "Are you going out to investigate the case?" ”

Before the words fell, Shen Yuan glanced at her, with a hint of surprise in his eyes.

This little woman was very smart, she just said that she was going out, and she guessed that she was going to investigate the case.

"Exactly."

Shen Yuan opened his mouth lightly, and after speaking, he walked up to Bai Qiurui, and before she could react, he suddenly took away the manuscript in her hand.

Seeing that Shen Yuan was about to leave, Bai Qiurui immediately said, "I haven't finished reading it yet." ”

Standing up from her position, Bai Qiurui hurriedly walked in front of Shen Yuan: "My lord, I haven't asked yet, how happened to the two evil monks last time?" ”

Talking about the two monks who kidnapped Bai Qiurui and Xiao Mingyu in Nanyue Temple last time, Shen Yuan's expression became serious.

"Those two monks have a lot of backgrounds, and they can already confirm that they were arranged by Princess Ning."

After Shen Yuan finished speaking, Bai Qiurui frowned.

Was it really the 'accident' arranged by Princess Ning?

Sure enough, a woman who can be a princess is not so easy to talk to.

Bai Qiurui felt a trace of inexplicable grievance and unwillingness in her heart, why was she the one who was forced to marry, and in the end she was treated like this?

She took a deep breath and barely suppressed the emotions in her heart.

It can now be determined that the two evil monks obeyed Princess Ning's wishes.

Then, how to explain the actions of Bai Yueyue and Xiao Chuchu when she and Xiao Mingyu were at the door of the house before?

The two of them were obviously very abnormal that day, what secrets were hidden behind their backs?

Shen Yuan looked at the little woman in front of him who was blocking his way, his face was hesitant, and his eyes were wandering out of the world.

I don't know what she was thinking, her face was first aggrieved to the point of distress, and then her face was solemn and her expression was serious.

His eyes flickered for a moment, and he probably guessed that it was this little woman who was worried about the Ning Wangfu behind the two monks.

He was reluctant to associate the two with Ning Wangfu at first, but after this period of review and inquiry, he found someone to track down the identities of the two.

All these methods pointed to Ning Wangfu.

The dignified princess, with a noble status, would even do such an incomparable and vicious kung fu, and the key person was still a deep daughter's family.

Besides, this is still a woman who has made a marriage contract with the palace, the future princess.

Shen Yuan remembered that the morning in the dungeon, the woman beside him stood there so quietly, raising her head slightly, looking aggrieved and desolate, which made him feel very uncomfortable.

In the quiet little attic, Bai Qiurui and Shen Yuan didn't speak for a while, until the door was suddenly pushed open.

"Squeak-"

The sound of the door opening the wood was harsh, especially in a quiet room.

This voice made Shen Yuan and Bai Qiurui look up at the same time, the two stood facing each other, Shen Yuan was still holding an old manuscript in his hand, and the two looked at the door together.

As soon as Gu Yi pushed the door, he saw such a scene, he had just stepped into the room with one foot, and paused.

"Uh...... Keep up ...... you guys"

From Gu Yi's point of view, Bai Qiurui and Shen Yuan were very close, as if they were clinging to each other and doing something.

He glanced sharply at Shen Yuan still holding a book in his hand, and boldly guessed in his mind that this ice cube, which usually looked serious and unsmiling, would now actually get close to the beauty by reading a book.

Bai Qiurui didn't notice anything wrong for a while, and when Gu Yi's eyes moved back and forth between her and Shen Yuan, she realized the problem later.

She was in a hurry to stop Shen Yuan before, not caring that the distance between the two was so close. At this moment, there was a third person, she felt that her face was going to be unbearable, the temperature was getting higher and higher, and she hurriedly took a step to the side.

"All ready?"

Shen Yuan opened his mouth, interrupting the awkward atmosphere, and looked at Gu Yi with dark eyes.

The latter scratched his hair, and continued: "I've been ready for a long time, I'm not waiting for you to come, and I'm not waiting for you to come, so I'll come and have a look." ”

Shen Yuan glanced at him and didn't speak, and was about to make a gesture to walk out, but Bai Qiurui suddenly spoke.

"I'll go with you."

As soon as these words came out, Shen Yuan and Gu Yi paused, and the two of them looked at her together.

Gu Yi was the first to speak: "Miss Bai, we are going out to investigate the case, you are a girl's family......"

Gu Yi wanted to speak and stopped, but did not continue to speak later.

But his expression said it all, obviously he didn't want Bai Qiurui to follow.

"Are you going to investigate the case of King Ning's Mansion?" Bai Qiurui looked at Gu Yi and asked.

Shen Yuan was about to speak when he heard this, but he didn't want Gu Yi to answer first: "Yes." ”

Bai Qiurui smiled, looking at Shen Yuan's helpless appearance, she spoke earnestly.

"In that case, I have to go."

"Oh? Why? ”

Gu Yi didn't know about Bai Qiurui's marriage contract with Ning Wangfu, and looking at his appearance at the moment, Shen Yuan didn't reveal it to him.

He looked at Bai Qiurui curiously, not knowing why the little girl in front of him was more determined to go together as soon as she heard that it was the case of Ning Wangfu.

Bai Qiurui smiled slightly: "Lord Shen has worked hard for this case, and the little woman must do her best, hoping that this case will be decided as soon as possible." ”

Gu Yi looked at Bai Qiurui's extraordinarily weird smile, and suddenly felt cold behind him, and had a bad premonition in his heart.

Is she really just trying to help, 'a little bit'......

Gu Yi had a strange look on his face, and Bai Qiurui deliberately added.

"Gu Gongzi rest assured, in order to find out as soon as possible. The little girl will definitely leave no stone unturned and do her best. ”

Gu Yi: "......"

From the perspective of others, Gu Yi's expression looked even stranger after Bai Qiurui deliberately added.

At this point, Shen Yuan didn't say anything anymore, and acquiesced in Bai Qiurui's acquiescence.

The three of them walked out of the small attic and were heading towards the gate of the criminal department.

Unbeknownst to him, halfway through, Shen Yuan suddenly stopped, turned around and looked back at Bai Qiurui fixedly.

"What's wrong?"

Gu Yi didn't know why, so he asked.

Bai Qiurui was also confused, why did she have something on her face?

Just when Bai Qiurui couldn't help but start to wonder if there was really something on her face, she saw Shen Yuan glance at Gu Yi.

At this moment, the other party suddenly understood what he meant.

"Oh...... I see, or you think thoughtfully. ”

Gu Yi looked at Shen Yuan with a smile, and then suddenly smiled, his eyes turned, and he also looked at Bai Qiurui directly.

These two people went one after the other, and this strange situation made Bai Qiurui's heart a little furious.

At this time, Gu Yi spoke first: "White girl, I almost forgot, you can't go out with us directly in this dress now." ”

"What...... What? ”

Bai Qiurui was surprised, is there anything wrong with her dress?

Don't you want her to disguise herself?

As soon as his mind moved, he saw Shen Yuan speak.

"Let's go change our clothes first."

Do you really want to change it?!

Bai Qiurui was a little skeptical about life.

Are these two people really going to investigate the case?

Strange in her heart, Bai Qiurui still followed Shen Yuan honestly, and the three of them changed their route and walked towards the backyard of the Criminal Ministry Mansion.

Along the way, Bai Qiurui couldn't help but wonder why Shen Yuan felt that she was dressed inappropriately.

Because of her identity as the second lady of Shaoqing Mansion in Dali Temple, it is inconvenient to go out with him to show up.

Or because of the place they go to, she needs to change her identity and dress, and even need to change her gender.

For example, the land of fireworks in Qinglou......

Bai Qiurui thought about it farther and farther, until she was about to think about whether she wanted to pretend to be a subordinate and go to King Ning's Mansion to steal some important evidence, and the three of them arrived outside a small courtyard.

I saw Shen Yuan whispering a few words to a rough girl who walked out of the courtyard, and the girl nodded respectfully, then walked to Bai Qiurui's side and took her into the courtyard.

This is the Criminal Ministry Mansion, so Bai Qiurui walked in with the girl without any scruples.

Walking into a clean little room, the girl took out a set of men's clothes.

"Girl, please put it on first."

Bai Qiurui looked at the clothes in front of her and was really speechless.

I really want her to pretend to be a man!

The thought in her heart flashed, and Bai Qiurui picked up her clothes and prepared to change in the next second.

In order for her marriage contract to be withdrawn early, what's the big deal about wearing men's clothes!

She wears!

The girl was holding a man's blue coat with a white brocade robe inside.

When Bai Qiurui was changed, she in the mirror seemed to be a rich boy who sneaked out to play.

The little girl was very clever, and when she saw Bai Qiurui changing her clothes, she took the initiative to lead her to the state and recomb the man's hairstyle for her.

The step on the head was removed, and three thousand green silks were sprinkled like a waterfall, and the black and shiny were like a fine black jade satin.

"The girl's long hair is so beautiful."

The little girl held a strand of Bai Qiurui's hair, and couldn't help but say in admiration.

Bai Qiurui smiled and raised her eyes to look at herself in the bronze mirror in front of her.

The lips are red and the teeth are white, the face is delicate, and the eyes are clear like spring water in the mountains.

I have to admire that the original body really gave birth to a good skin.

Sitting quietly and letting the little girl comb her hair, Bai Qiurui suddenly remembered when she was here with Xiao Mingyu that night.

At that time, she remembered that it was also this little girl who changed her clothes.

When she found that the new clothes she had changed seemed to be similar to the one she had attended at the banquet before, the little girl was serious and told her without blinking her eyelids that the clothes were bought casually.

It was because she said it was so natural that she couldn't find a trace of the problem, so she just thought that she was too careful.

If she hadn't accidentally learned the next morning that Shen Yuan had temporarily arranged for the girl in her house to enter the Punishment Department the night before, she might not have been a good person.

So, this little girl in front of her is......

Thinking of this, Bai Qiurui's eyes turned and she thought about it in her heart.

She looked at the busy face of the little girl in the mirror, and said lightly: "Girl, are you the girl who has been helping here?" ”

"Yes."

The little girl's movements of combing her hair were smooth, and Bai Qiurui's words did not interfere with her movements in the slightest.

She has been combing her hair intently, as if the question asked by Bai Qiurui is a very normal and ordinary question.

Seeing this, Bai Qiurui was a little frustrated, and it seemed that she didn't plan to continue.

She glanced at herself in the mirror, and the little girl had already taken care of her long hair, holding a cyan hairband in her hand, and was about to tie it for her.

I saw Bai Qiurui suddenly make a proposal: "If this is replaced with a silver hair crown, will it look more like a man?" ”

Bai Qiurui's appearance is too outstanding, although she changed into men's clothes at this time, it looks fine from a distance. But if you look closely, it's easy to reveal the filling.

Now that she has changed her identity, Bai Qiurui naturally hopes that it can be more appropriate, so as not to have any problems later.

Unknowingly, the little girl heard her words and smiled softly.

"Don't worry, the slave will take care of it for you, and will never let you reveal your identity."

The little girl said something reassuring, and then looked at Bai Qiurui's figure: "The girl is slender and has an outstanding posture. If you use a silver crown, it feels more like a man, but if you make a little big move, it will inevitably end up revealing the filling. ”

The little girl took into account the woman's size, and she was indeed more careful and appropriate.

Bai Qiurui felt that it was reasonable to hear it, and even praised her for her thoughtfulness.

The little girl's face was ashamed, and she continued: "The girl has been promoted, and the slave has only been doing it for a long time, so she knows a little bit." ”

Bai Qiurui's eyes flashed when she heard this, and she immediately picked up the words: "Then what kind of person do you think looks better with a hair crown?" ”

The little girl didn't doubt him, and directly followed Bai Qiurui's words: "The slave maid thinks that Lord Shen is the most suitable for tying her hair and crown, and the old lady in the mansion used to ......."

Halfway through her words, the little girl suddenly stopped, and a smile crossed Bai Qiurui's face.

And sure enough, it was!
