She calmly adjusted the cloak over her shoulders and said, "Just say I'm asleep. If they don't find any evidence against me, please don't come and bother me again."
“I’m just an ordinary merchant’s wife. Now I’m inexplicably running around to the government offices all the time. It will ruin my reputation.”
The housekeeper hadn't expected Wei Wei to speak so forcefully, and for a moment he didn't know what to do.
Wei Wei looked at his unmoving feet and sneered: "If you can't even do this small thing well, you don't need to work in the Meng family anymore."
One sentence made the butler's face turn several shades paler.
He didn't dare say anything more and quickly turned and left.
It always takes some time to go back and forth, so that Leng Pusheng will have more time.
I guess the butler has already delivered the message.
A moment later, when the footsteps approached, there was another person.
Upon closer inspection, it turned out to be Wu Guangyu, who was standing next to Yao Zidian.
Wei Wei had already entered the dormitory, so they couldn't go any further and just stood at the gate of the courtyard to talk.
"Madam Meng, I am here on Lord Yao's orders to take you to the yamen."
Wei Wei asked through the window, "I just came out of the yamen today, surely I haven't done anything wrong again?"
Wu Guangyu respectfully said, "Young Madam Meng, please don't misunderstand. Loucheng is in chaos now, and it is no longer safe for you in the Meng residence."
"Not only you, but also Madam Qi and her family, as well as two other families, have sent people to pick them up."
Wei Wei's eyebrows twitched slightly.
Suddenly, he got up, pushed open the dormitory window, and looked at Wu Guangyu from afar.
"What's wrong? Is there something wrong with these companies?"
Wu Guangyu didn't look up at her, but lowered his head and replied, "If you want to know, Lord Yao and Lord Yu are waiting at the yamen."
"They are willing to answer any question, no matter what it is."
What did we learn from that young lady Wei?
It seems the assassin was a step too late.
She thought for a moment and agreed: "But I need to change my clothes, so the young man might have to wait outside for a while."
Wu Guangyu naturally did not refuse, but stepped back.
Wei Wei returned to her bed.
It's uncertain whether things will go smoothly with Leng Pusheng. The officials have already arrived. Whether they can kill that woman depends on this short quarter of an hour.
Wu Guangyu waited for quite a long time.
However, seeing the large bags and packages carried by Wei Wei's maid, it seemed that it hadn't been that long.
"It's a bit cool at night, and the yamen (government office) probably didn't prepare a place for us to rest in their haste."
"I was thinking of bringing some things that I might need at any time."
"This will save you a lot of trouble."
Wei Wei explained with a smile.
Wu Guangyu suddenly realized: "That makes sense. Although they've already called people over there to clean up, I doubt it'll be very clean."
After saying this, as if remembering something, she glanced around and suddenly asked, "Where is your guard? I haven't seen him."
Wei Wei paused for a moment, then smiled and said, "He's in the front yard. Didn't you see him, young man?"
Wu Guangyu shook his head: "They probably didn't notice."
After saying that, he pointed to the bundle on Xiaoyue'er's body: "Do you need my help?"
Xiao Yue'er immediately replied, "No need, this servant can carry it!"
Wu Guangyu smiled and glanced at her, then nodded: "If you can't carry it, you can tell me."
Seeing that he was about to turn away, Wei Wei's eyes darkened slightly, and she asked, "Why did you suddenly bring him up?"
Wu Guangyu said, "It's been really unsafe lately. Lord Yu, let me see if your guards are with you."
"If he were here, we could take him to the yamen with us, so he could fight back in time if the assassin showed up."
Wei Wei was very puzzled: "How can you be so sure that the assassin will attack us?"
Wu Guangyu found it difficult to answer this question: "Young Madam Meng will know once she comes with me. I don't know how to explain it."
Wei Wei hummed in agreement and followed him into the front yard.
The people in the front yard had already woken up.
When they saw Wei Wei come out, everyone called out, "Young Madam."
Wei Wei nodded: "Don't worry, I'll probably be back in a day or two."
"During my absence, I hope everyone will remain as usual and not be lazy."
Everyone readily agreed.
Her eyes glanced into the crowd and finally saw Leng Pusheng emerge silently from the darkness.
Was the matter resolved?
She couldn't ask any more questions now, so she could only point at him and say, "Brother Leng, why don't you come with us? Lord Yu might need your help."
Leng Pusheng walked out of the crowd, his face revealing no emotion.
Wu Guangyu looked at him at this moment and said with a smile, "I heard from Lord Yu that Brother Leng's kung fu is very high. When we have time in the future, why don't we have a spar?"
Leng Pusheng coldly replied, "I am but a wandering swordsman, how could I possibly be a match for a martial arts guard?"
"You don't need to be so modest."
Wu Guangyu said, "Lord Yu knows my skills. If he can praise me, I don't believe you are no match for me."
Seeing that Wu Guangyu was genuinely eager to try, Wei Wei reminded him, "If there's an opportunity in the future, we can spar. Shouldn't we get down to business first?"
When Wu Guangyu heard Wei Wei speak, he looked slightly embarrassed: "I'm a martial arts fanatic. I get itchy whenever I see someone with good kung fu."
"I hope Madam Meng will not be angry."
Wei Wei was naturally not angry.
Now that Leng Pusheng has arrived, she needs to hurry over and find out just how much these people actually know.
As soon as they left, Wei Wei felt Leng Pusheng glance at the Jiang residence across the street.
She subconsciously looked in that direction and saw the eunuch named Zhou Quan standing in front of the gate that had been opened at some point.
He looked like he had just gotten out of bed, wearing a white nightgown and with his hair a little messy.
His gaze turned cold and menacing as he looked at Wei Wei, carrying an intense chill.
The gaze was so undisguised that even Wu Guangyu, who had been talking the whole time, noticed it.
His gaze narrowed, indicating that he remembered this person.
Why don't I remember that?
The head eunuch of the Third Prince's residence was always the center of attention, no matter where he went.
As expected, Wu Guangyu's expression turned cold.
Zhou Quan gave a cold snort, turned around and went inside.
Given the current situation, he's not even bothering to pretend anymore.
Wu Guangyu's reaction also served as a message to Wei Wei.
Yao Zidian and his group already know who the real culprit is.
However, they could not arrest them immediately, so they could only protect them to prevent them from being killed again.
Wei Wei smiled wryly.
Now that we know the truth, what should we do next?
Are you feeling restless and anxious all day long?
