”marble temple's Shaoqing, Wei Deliang!”
”Seventh Prince must be joking! I am just the captain of a team of guards, how would I dare to climb higher!” Wei Chengwu waved his hands, ”This official and Shaoqing were originally relatives who could not even fight against a few of them. When they were poor, they were lucky enough to get Shaoqing's appreciation and recommended them to their current positions. This official only regards Shaoqing as my benefactor, and absolutely does not dare to call him my brother! ”
Hearing this, Ruan Qinghe could only smile. Although he did not get involved with the court affairs, he understood that Wei Deliang was the most favored person under the Emperor's power, and this Wei Chengwu in front of him was also from the Wei family. Furthermore, he was even recommended by Wei Deliang.
Yuwen Fei looked at Wei Chengwu appreciatively and sighed: ”Fortunately royal father sent you to protect us when we investigate.”
Huai Jin also agreed on the side, and praised Wei Chengwu ruthlessly.
Just as Wei Chengwu was being praised to the point that he did not know what to do, and even said that he did not dare, the delicate and soft voice of the woman beside his ear changed as she suggested, ”Why not, Captain Wei help us inspect Zhu Yu's room?”
Wei Chengwu's face was filled with fear, as he shook his head repeatedly: ”This official was only ordered to protect the two of you, for this investigation, I am truly... ”Really …”
He was so anxious that he did not even think about what he was going to say, when he heard Yuwen Fei speak up from the side: ”Everyone says that Wei Shaoqing is lost in thought, and that Captain Wei is probably by his side too, so his observation will definitely be more meticulous than ours. Captain Wei, why don't you take a look for us?”
Seeing that he could not reject, Wei Chengwu gritted his teeth and forced himself to follow a servant into Zhu Yu's room.
Just as he left, Huai Jin's face darkened. With a spy by her side, she had no choice but to continue pretending to be Princess Anping, making her feel uncomfortable.
”It looks like the one the Emperor sent to investigate this case was Wei Deliang.” Yuwen Fei sighed at the side.
”I thought it would be the Xibo Marquis.” Ruan Qinghe smiled from the side.
Mentioning the Xibo Marquis, Huai Jin's heart skipped a beat and she remembered what Yuwen Fei said to him on the hunting grounds. The bamboo like figure appeared in front of her again. She couldn't understand how someone could be like him when they encountered such a situation. It only made people feel a sense of elegance and warmth.
Yuwen Fei glanced at Huai Jin who was in a daze, and continued: ”Bei Ling's informant disappeared in the Wuan Lane, and Xibo Marquis's residence is also here, he is suspected, so the Emperor will definitely not hand this matter over to him.”
Ruan Qinghe nodded.
”Brother Qing He!” Yuwen Fei suddenly called out to him, and said in a low voice: ”From now on, I wonder how many eyes will be fixated on this Grand Princess Mansion, Brother Qing He should be more cautious.”
Ruan Qinghe was at a loss. He did not know where Yuwen Fei's sudden reminder came from, but he quickly asked: ”Seventh Prince, what do you mean?”
Unknowingly, his way of addressing Yuwen Fei had already changed, and this slight change was heard by Huai Jin. He regained his senses and said: ”Just now, when we entered, we met Su Geying.”
Ruan Qinghe was shocked, and said: ”Today, Miss Su has not come!” Then, he raised his voice and shouted: ”Ji An!”
After waiting for a while, no one came up to reply.
Huai Jin and Yuwen Fei looked at each other, and saw a trace of ”Not good” in each other's eyes.
