On the bed, Ye Shuhua, who was being held by Liji, suddenly opened her eyes.

"There are assassins!"

Ye Shuhua exclaimed, but it was too late at this time, and the man's dagger was about to stab at the back of Li's heart.

He simply didn't have time to hide!

Just when Ye Shuhua was panicked, the assassin's hand suddenly stopped, and Jiuyu didn't know when it appeared, and put the knife on the man's neck.

The thrilling scene was so shocking that Ye Shuhua could only hear her own heartbeat.

"Your Highness, what should you do with this person?"

Jiuyu had already captured the assassin, and shook his head: "Lock him up, remember not to let him die, I will interrogate him tomorrow." ”

Jiuyu lowered his head and pressed the man out of the house.

Silence returned to the house.

Ye Shuhua had palpitations, and once again confirmed that Li Zhen's back was not injured, and then he breathed a sigh of relief.

Li Zhen hugged her, touched her cheek, and kissed her fiercely.

"I didn't expect you to wake up at this time, if you knew that you would wake up as soon as I was in danger, I would have arranged a play a long time ago."

Ye Shuhua didn't expect it, but seeing his calm expression, he immediately asked: "You have long been aware of the assassin, and deliberately did not move, so that Jiuyu could capture him alive?" ”

Li Zhen nodded.

Ye Shuhua should have guessed it a long time ago, but the relationship was chaotic, she didn't think about it at all, Li Zhen had deep internal strength, and someone behind him killed him with a knife, how could he not notice it?

But anyway, I finally came out of that hood.

It's also gratifying.

"By the way, the arsonist, can you find it?"

Li Zhen shook his head: "The other party is very careful that there is no trace left, but this assassination is a gain." ”

"By the way, Gu Zhusheng has already handed over the goods on the day when the Zhizhou Mansion caught fire, I suspect that this arson was caused by the other party to cover up his whereabouts, and the other party has noticed what we know."

"And that's why this assassination?" Ye Shuhua asked.

Li Zhen nodded: "It may be." But it could also be just a bait thrown to see if we really know anything. ”

After all, this assassin is not a high martial artist, and he sneaked in alone.

If the other party is a character from Liyang City, he must also know something about him, if he wants to kill him, how can he send such a person so hastily?

Ye Shuhua woke up, and Ji Cui and Zhuying were very happy.

Li Zhen went to interrogate the Assassin last night, and Ji Cui made a bowl of noodles for the young lady.

"Miss, you just woke up, Your Highness said to let you eat something good to digest. So the slave made your favorite noodles. ”

Ye Shuhua was already so hungry that her chest was pressed against her back, and she was immediately swept away.

Gu Jiu'er's legs and feet were so neat, only her arms were still bandaged, and as soon as she heard that Ye Shuhua was awake, she hurriedly ran over.

"Sister, you finally woke up, but Jiu'er is worried."

Ye Shuhua stroked his head, "Jiu'er recovered so quickly, she can go to the ground." ”

Gu Jiu'er smiled sweetly and jumped twice, "Of course Jiu'er has to recover faster, so that she can protect her sister and not become a drag on her sister." ”

Ye Shuhua looked at him and smiled faintly.

The fundus glow is dull and unclear.

The matter of the granary has always been known only to Ye Shuhua Liqi and Bamboo Shadow Jiuyu, and even Ji Cui does not know.

Gu Jiu'er naturally didn't know.

He stayed by Ye Shuhua's side, one arm was bandaged, but the other arm was fine, and he could also help Ye Shuhua serve tea and pour water.

Ji Cui is very fond of him and always teases him.

He also has a sweet mouth, and he is used to coaxing people, and he coaxes Ji Cui to smile.

Ye Shuhua was also coaxed by him with a smile on her face.

"Sister, I heard that all the food has been destroyed, so there are so many refugees outside, what will happen in the future?"

Ji Cui tapped the tip of Gu Jiu'er's nose and smiled: "Anyway, I can't starve you, but you are a villain who cares about other refugees?" ”

Gu Jiu'er held her head high, "Of course, my mother taught me that the people have difficulties and responsibilities, although I am just an insignificant villain, but I also have the heart of the world, and I will definitely be able to serve the people in the future." ”

Ji Cui was amused by his righteous appearance.

Ye Shuhua also smiled, but praised it: "Yes, it's very good that Jiu'er can have such an awareness. ”

"But the question you asked me is also stumped for me, it should be that His Royal Highness is trying to find a way to solve it."

When Gu Jiu'er heard this, she let out a sigh, and sat aside obediently again, no longer speaking.

The house was burning with silver charcoal, which was a charcoal fire that Li Zheng had bought from elsewhere.

Simmer so that the room is warm.

After a while, Gu Jiu'er fell asleep.

Ye Shuhua asked Ji Cui to carry him back to the house.

Seeing Ji Cui leave with Gu Jiu'er in her arms, she beckoned to Zhuying again and whispered to her to do something.

As soon as the bamboo shadow left, Li Zhen returned to the house.

Seeing that his brows were furrowed, she guessed the result, "Didn't ask anything?" ”

Li Zhen shook his head: "He recruited it, saying that it was the time of the third prince." ”

"It's so easy? Then the person behind his command is definitely not the third prince. ”

Li Zhen also thinks so: "But apart from the three princes, who else dares to collude with merchants and make weapons privately?" Moreover, he also set such a fire so coincidentally to divert his attention and deliver weapons, not only that, but also succeeded in getting the greatest resistance to his disaster relief affairs. ”

Ye Shuhua lowered her eyes and pondered for a while: "Is it the eldest prince?" ”

Li Zhen also guessed that it would be him, but shook his head again: "It's not him." ”

"The eldest prince has never had contact with people outside Liyang City, and there are no available people around him, so his hand can't be stretched out so long. Besides, he hasn't been out of the palace and the court for a long time. It can't be him. ”

Ye Shuhua was also puzzled, she searched again, "There is no one else in the court." ”

Suddenly, she really thought of someone.

The fire in the Zhizhou Mansion burned strangely, and it seemed that it was just prepared for himself, and he only trapped himself in the fire.

"Could it be the Queen?"

Li Zhen was vetoed at the moment.

But Ye Shuhua said: "I don't mean to say that it is the queen who colludes with merchants to make weapons privately, will it be the queen's people who set the fire?" ”

"And the person behind it knew that the queen didn't like me and didn't like you, so he would definitely agree to this, so he took advantage of this and set fire to make such a mess. And the man took advantage of the chaos to go to Gu's house to pick up the goods. ”

"If you analyze it this way, it's very likely. If this is the case, the other party must be familiar with the relationship between me and the queen, and he is also familiar with the situation in the court. ”

Ye Shuhua nodded: "It's not easy to catch this person who makes weapons privately, but this is a line, as long as the arsonist is caught, if it is really the queen's person, go back to confront the palace, and have her handle in her hand, don't be afraid that she won't tell her who told her." ”

She guessed that the man must not have revealed his identity to the queen, but whether it was secretly handing over the note or using someone to deliver the message.

As long as you find it, you will be able to find out who is behind it.

And Ye Shuhua has already made a preliminary judgment about the arsonist.

But she said: "I'll investigate this matter, you don't have to worry about it, just how to provide disaster relief next, and fight a beautiful turnaround." ”

The two-month disaster relief deadline was coming soon, and he had been confused by Liyang City for long enough.

Moreover, the most important thing is that the arsonist Ye Shuhua has a direction, so there is no need to cover it up.

The other party also has no chance to attack the grain again.

After a few more days, Ye Shuhua's body was already well.

I have nothing to do all day, either reading books or listening to Gu Jiu'er tell some interesting stories about Tongyu Town.

On this day, there was another blizzard.

The outside of the house was covered with a layer of white, but Gu Jiu'er was very happy, pulling Ji Cui to build a snowman with him.

Bamboo Shadow also rushed back in the snow.

The matter that Ye Shuhua asked her to investigate has been investigated clearly.

"Miss, this is Gu Jiu'er's true identity."

Hand out a note, open it and see that the last three words on it are written by Gu Quansi.

"Gu Quansi, the Gu family's concubine is also the ninth son of the Gu family?"

"Exactly, but the subordinates found out that this Gu Zhusheng did order someone to kill Gu Quansi at that time, and the reason was indeed because he saw the goods."

Ye Shuhua glanced out the window, playing with Gu Jiu'er.

Jawhead motioned for her to continue.

"And the Gu family doesn't take him seriously at all, the deed of sale at that time was actually the son of a house slave of the same age as Gu Quansi, the son of the house slave died the day before he was beaten, and the Gu family also kept claiming that he was the son of a house slave in order to cover up, and at that time they thought about going back and killing him secretly."
