The Crown Prince and Long Yin both twitched their lips, feeling that it was a bit strange to hear such a sentence coming from Wei Fu's mouth.

Wei Fu, who was only six years old, succeeded because of Zhao Qin, and sighed that being a man was not an ordinary thing.

When we were having dinner together in the evening, I saw Zhou Xi sitting at the table and I felt more and more that this man was not an ordinary person.

Su Rui is such a difficult person to deal with!

Her outstanding brother the Crown Prince and her outstanding cousin Su Cheng, who were both people who never listened to others, were now looking at Zhou Xi with a smile on their faces. They had a gentle temper and looked very shy.

Long Yin looked at Wei Fu's sighing expression, and the corners of his mouth twitched wildly.

Zhou Xi left after lunch, but he couldn't resist the "fate" that was welded to death!

Su Cheng encountered an assassin when he returned from investigating a case today. Coincidentally, he also met Zhou Xi, and then Zhou Xi saved Su Cheng, but his arm was injured.

Su Cheng certainly couldn't just ignore the villain who saved his life, so he brought him back to recuperate.

The prince said to Su Cheng, "I don't plan to wait for the court officials to arrive before leaving. Let's go find General Mao later."

Su Cheng asked in surprise, "Your Highness, do you want to apprehend the bandits first and then leave?"

The prince nodded.

Wei Fu couldn't be allowed to continue investigating the case. She had been depressed for two sessions after investigating the case for a whole day. Both cases were extremely bizarre. The prince then thought of the things she had encountered in the capital.

He more or less felt that Wei Fu had some ability to encounter strange things.

He, Su Cheng and the county magistrate were also investigating the case, but the things they encountered were much more normal.

It was not as horrific or terrible as what Wei Fu encountered.

Since the prince wanted to make such an arrangement, Su Cheng naturally cooperated.

They didn't notice that Zhou Xi's eyes changed when he heard them say they wanted to leave early.

General Mao was a military commander, and after arriving in Liaocheng, he had to investigate cases like a civil official every day, which made him very irritable, especially since his men were still unable to contact those bandits.

But he thought there was still time, so he controlled his temper. At this moment, the prince suddenly said that he wanted to go and suppress the bandits in advance, which made General Mao annoyed.

After the Crown Prince left General Mao, Zhou Xi came out from behind the screen and said slowly, "General, I'm afraid His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is suspicious of you."

"Or maybe he already knows that you are in cahoots with us."

"How is that possible!" General Mao didn't believe it at all. "If His Royal Highness knew that we were colluding, would he have sent someone to inform me that very night and ask for my help?"

"Although I haven't had much contact with the prince, I have had contact with him before. The prince is a very cautious person and would not do such a thing."

Zhou Xi also couldn't figure this out.

They certainly couldn't understand it, because the prince would never do such a thing. Didn't he just get fooled by the bandits?

"The young princess is quite capable. I feel like she knows everything. The general has been with them for some time and should know that the young princess has magical powers. Do you think the princess will be deceived by the lies of my men?"

General Mao had never really thought about this question. When Zhou Xi asked it, General Mao thought about it and his face changed immediately.

Wei Fu solved two cases that day, with astonishing speed. For the case in the morning, the evidence was at the scene, so all he had to do was arrest the person and question him.

But the case in the afternoon actually shouldn't be that smooth.

Normally, if someone has confessed their guilt, they should be taken away directly.

But Wei Fu kept asking questions and actually found out the truth, which was outrageous.

Seeing General Mao's expression change, Zhou Xi said, "You don't need to send your men to assassinate those bandits. Su Rui's usefulness is not high. The Crown Prince and the young princess won't do anything for her. Even her brothers don't like her very much."

General Mao frowned: "Then what do you think we should do?"

"According to my investigation, the young princess doesn't know medical skills, so we can use poison. But if we poison them directly, I'm worried they'll find out. The Crown Prince is very wary, so it won't be easy to do. He hasn't said he'll go out to suppress the bandits tomorrow, so they'll continue to go out to investigate cases these days, and we can make some moves outside."

"Kill them, and no one will know, and we won't be exposed."

General Mao hesitated and said, "That's not right! If the prince and his men died in Liaocheng, the emperor would definitely send someone to investigate."

"After killing the crown prince, I definitely can't stay here anymore. I'll send someone back later to ask them to start evacuating in batches."

General Mao sighed and said, "This is the only way." He looked outside the house.

Your Highness, I don’t want to kill you. If you want to blame someone, blame your own bad luck.

…………

The next day, the weather was clear and the sun was shining brightly. Because Tingyu noticed that Wei Fu was sweaty when she came back yesterday, she changed her into a thinner spring shirt today, making her look like a little butterfly. She still had an aunt's smile on her face as she watched Wei Fu leave, and she also gave the food she had prepared for Wei Fu and her pink cloak to Long Yin, asking Long Yin to remember to put them on Wei Fu when they were in the shade.

Long Yin took it with a dark face.

Watching Wei Fu go out with full of energy, he was like a maid, carrying this and that, feeling so frustrated.

But it was not convenient for him to stuff this pile of stuff on Wei Fu, so he could only serve as a servant in frustration.

The place they were going to today was a widow's house, and the widow's son came to report a case.

On the night when Wei Fu fought against Gui Kui, a dead body appeared in their house. The widow's son recognized the body as his father who had passed away many years ago based on the clothes that had not completely rotted away.

Wei Fu and Long Yin went to their home. The man who reported to the police had gone out to work, and his wife was at home taking care of the children. When she saw Wei Fu and his men coming, she immediately asked the neighbors to help call her husband back.

Perhaps because she had never seen someone of Wei Fu's status, the man's wife seemed a little restrained.

Wei Fu approached her and asked, "How many years has your father-in-law been dead? What was the cause of his death?"

The young wife was honest yet a little nervous as she stammered, "My father-in-law died before I got married. My husband said his father died when he was seven years old. He was chopping wood when his foot slipped and he killed himself."

"My husband remembers it very clearly. The axe hit my father-in-law right on the forehead. He was playing outside when he heard someone say that my father-in-law was in trouble, so he rushed home. Seeing my father-in-law like that, he fainted out of fright."

"My mother-in-law was worried that he would be frightened, so she sent him to my maternal grandparents' house and asked them to help take care of him while she took care of my father-in-law's funeral at home."

"That day, when my father-in-law crawled out of the yard, my husband realized that my mother-in-law hadn't buried my father-in-law. He went to ask her why she lied to him, and she said she wanted to save some money."

"At that time, her husband was still young, and he would have to get married when he grew up. As a weak woman, she had no way to make money, so she tried to save as much as she could."
