Chapter 278 Search



The words were spoken.

Lu Wei was surprised. What were the people from the Court of Justice doing here?

Lu Wei got up and walked out of the courtyard.

Upon seeing her, Fan Qin politely bowed and respectfully greeted her, "Madam Lu."

"What brings Lord Fan to my residence?"

Fan Qin withdrew his hand and replied, "By order of the Chief Inspector, I now need to search Princess Weiyang's study."

Lu Wei asked, "What are they searching for?"

Fan Qin didn't explain further, only saying, "Search for one thing."

Lu Wei didn't press further, "Then Lord Fan, please go and search."

"yes."

Lu Wei and Mu Yazhi followed them into Tingzhu Courtyard.

Fan Qin arranged for people to begin searching the study.

Linglong and Honghua watched anxiously, still completely unaware of their young lady's current condition.

Linglong glanced at Qiye, who seemed completely unconcerned, and couldn't help but ask, "Qiye, what exactly are they searching for?"

Qi Ye turned around and replied, "How would I know?"

Mu Yazhi looked at her mother and asked in confusion, "What exactly are you searching for, Mother?"

"It must be evidence related to Mu Chenshuang's plot to murder Wei Xu."

However, why are the people from the Court of Justice investigating? The case has already been handed over to the Imperial Observatory. Shouldn't it be the inspectors from the Imperial Observatory who are conducting the search? Why are the people from the Court of Justice here?

One hour later.

"My lord, we have not found that manual."

Fan Qin frowned, then walked up to Lu Wei and asked, "Madam Lu, may I ask who Miss Yao Si is?"

Lu Wei was surprised, and Yao, who was standing to the side, also seemed to be taken aback.

Before Lu Wei could answer, Fan Qin's gaze fell on Yao Si. "This must be Miss Yao Si."

Yao looked up at Fan Qin and calmly asked, "May I ask what business you have with me, sir?"

Fan Qin did not answer Yao Si's question, but looked at Lu Wei and said, "Madam Lu, I now need to search Miss Yao Si's room."

These words surprised the others even more.

"Why does Your Excellency want to search my room?" Yao asked.

Fan Qin looked at Yao Si and realized from the first moment he saw this maid that she was very different from the other maids in the mansion.

"As for the reason, you don't need to know."

Fan Qin wanted to search, and Lu Wei had no right to stop him; a bad feeling suddenly crept into her heart.

The group then went to Yao's room.

Fan Qin looked at the house where Yao Si was located and the environment was no worse than that of an ordinary official's daughter. Anyone who didn't know better would think that he had entered the room of a young lady from another family.

"It seems that Madam Lu treats her personal maid very well," Fan Qin said.

Lu Wei understood what Fan Qin meant by those words and replied, "Yao seems to have no relatives or friends, but she has been with me for many years and has always served me wholeheartedly. I have always treated her as family, so naturally I take good care of her."

Fan Qin smiled and flattered, "Madam Lu is indeed a kind-hearted person."

At this moment, a guard quickly walked over and handed over a secret manual with both hands, "My lord."

Fan Qin reached out and took it.

Seeing this, Lu Wei asked in a panic, "What is this?"

Fan Qin glanced at the manual in his hand, looked up at Lu Wei, and said without answering, "I would like to ask Madam Lu and Miss Yao Si to come with me to the Chengtian Observatory."

Yao stared wide-eyed at the manual in Fan Qin's hand and retorted, "What is this? I have no idea."

Fan Qin looked up at Yao Si and said with an official and authoritative air, "If you have anything to say, you should go to the Chengtianjian to explain."

Yao seemed dissatisfied and angry, but what did she have to fear about going to the Imperial Observatory?

Lu Wei had a guess in her mind; it seemed that the only option now was to go to the Chengtianjian.
