Xiaowu blinked.
Ye Chutang put his thoughts aside and held her hand calmly.
Xiaowu stepped on a small stool and got off the carriage. He lowered his head to check his purse, which was still hanging on his body. He couldn't help but raise his little mouth to reveal a happy smile.
My mind was focused on the little grasshopper that Afeng gave me.
I guess she didn't even realize that this was the first time she didn't want someone to carry her off the carriage.
Ye Chutang didn't mention it specifically, and pulled her inside calmly and naturally.
As he walked, he said, "Your third brother will be back tonight, and I'll show him the letter then."
Tomorrow is the ten-day holiday and it is also her birthday, so Ayan will definitely go home early.
Xiaowu jumped and nodded - OK!
Walk along the corridor and go all the way inside.
When he arrived at the bedroom door, Ye Chutang paused.
She patted Xiaowu's head gently and let her go into the house first. Then she turned around and spoke to the quiet yard:
"Lord Lu."
Soon, a tall and thin figure appeared in the courtyard.
It was Lu Yu.
Before, they guarded secretly and were very careful, never showing up.
But ever since the assassination happened, both sides simply came clean, and Lu Yu and his men no longer concealed their tracks.
——Anyway, Ye Chutang was very aware of their existence and movements.
Although they didn't know why she was so perceptive, it was a good thing for them as it saved them a lot of trouble than before.
At least now, if Ye Chutang calls out, they can come out and talk directly.
"Miss Ye Er."
Ye Chutang looked him over and smiled: "I thought Lord Lu was still in Shuntian Prefecture. I didn't expect him to come back so soon."
Lu Yu said succinctly: "Now that the testimony has been submitted, it is time for me to return."
Ye Chutang: “…”
Really not shy at all...
If it were anyone else, this behavior would be considered as interfering with the investigation in Shuntian Prefecture, and in serious cases, they could even be severely investigated and punished, but the Black Cavalry Guards were different.
Shen Yanchuan's team only obeys him, and he works for His Majesty, so the Black Cavalry Guards - even the officials - have no right to interfere.
But this morning when Lu Yu went to Shuntian Prefecture to interrogate Wu Laosi, Emperor Mu Wu was still unconscious, so he had nothing to fear.
Of course, Ye Chutang privately thought that even if Emperor Mu Wu knew all this, he would not pursue responsibility.
Chen Yanchuan had a tough attitude. The investigation directly uncovered a series of cases related to Xiao Lanxi. Emperor Mu Wu was so angry that he had no time to care about these things.
Ye Chutang said: "I have something I want to ask Lord Lu, I hope Lord Lu will tell me honestly."
Lu Yu nodded: "Miss Ye Er, please speak."
Ye Chutang looked at him and asked directly, "Are the things Wu Laosi said in his testimony true?"
Lu Yu paused and said, "He said it himself."
Ye Chutang narrowed his eyes slightly.
What he meant was that Wu Laosi did mention Xiao Lanxi's name, and he was the one who voluntarily provided the evidence.
but……
Seeing Ye Chutang seemed suspicious, Lu Yu said, "The Shuntian Prefecture has already sent people to check the relevant evidence he mentioned one by one, and they are all true."
In other words, it is an established fact that Xiao Lanxi instructed Wu Laosi to assassinate Ye Chutang.
In this way, the credibility of Zhou Kangxue's identification of Xiao Lanxi is greatly enhanced.
There is even that jade pendant——
"Does your master already know all this?" Ye Chutang suddenly asked.
Lu Yu was stunned. He didn't expect her to ask this suddenly.
Immediately, he nodded: "Yes."
Chen Yanchuan saw Wu Laosi's testimony even earlier than the Princess and the others.
really……
Ye Chutang was not surprised by this answer, but she was a little surprised -
"Then why didn't he go to the palace and report it in person?"
With so many things uncovered and the case being so serious, Chen Yanchuan should have been sent directly to the palace.
But Ye Chutang stayed in the palace for a long time today, but never saw him.
"Is your master busy lately?"
Lu Yu was stunned for a moment, then realized: "You want to see him?"
Ye Chutang: “…”
Lu Yu said: "I will let you know right away and I will reply to you within a quarter of an hour."
Having said that, he turned and was about to leave.
The master said that anything that happens here must be reported in a timely manner. Moreover, this is a request made by Miss Ye herself, so it naturally needs to be handled urgently.
Ye Chutang: “……???”
Why does she want to see Chen Yanchuan so much?
Did he misunderstand something?
"Hey——" Ye Chutang shouted.
Lu Yu turned around: "Do you have any other instructions?"
Ye Chutang was speechless for a moment, not knowing how to explain.
What was she going to say, she was just asking casually?
But the other party sent people to protect her safety. If she really said that, it would be too inhumane...
Ye Chutang coughed lightly: "I have something I want to discuss with your master, but since it is not convenient for him, then let it be--"
"good."
Lu Yu nodded.
"I will certainly convey your message."
Ye Chutang: ...Huh? No, something seems to be wrong?
"I didn't..."
Before he finished speaking, Lu Yu's figure had disappeared in the yard.
“…Um, the meaning.”
Ye Chutang looked at the empty courtyard with mixed feelings and murmured.
The several masters of the Black Guards do have their own abilities, but why... are they all a little stubborn?
The most active one has to be Yun Cheng. No wonder Chen Yanchuan chose him to guard the capital.
If anyone else were to take over this treacherous place, it might not be possible to make a living.
“…That’s all.”
Ye Chutang had originally planned to pick a time to host a banquet at Yunlai Tavern to express his gratitude to Shen Yanchuan, but since this was the case, it would be better to do it today.
Why not just do it today?
There is no impenetrable wall in the world. I don’t know where the things that happened in the palace today have spread by now.
I'm afraid that even before tomorrow, the powerful and wealthy families in the capital will be in an uproar.
Black Cavalry Guards, Shuntian Prefecture, Xiao Lanxi...
All the previous things have found their excuses this time, and are bound to stir up another storm.
Then she has nothing to hide.
Thinking of this, Ye Chutang suddenly felt refreshed.
She raised her voice and called for someone.
"Come here, prepare the table!" (End of this chapter)
