Xie Ni thought something big had happened, so he immediately stood up and came to Gu Nanzhi's side, "What's wrong with Zhizhi?"

Gu Nanzhi's expression was unusually cold, and she had forgotten someone.

"It's okay, I just suddenly remembered something." She smiled at Xie Ni.

Xie Ni knew it was no small matter, otherwise she wouldn't look like this.

Hoten and Linglong walked in at the same time.

Linglong's injury was not serious, and Gu Nanzhi thought it would be safer to leave this matter to her, "Go and see if Brother Qian is still begging on the street."

Why was Linglong asked to see the child? Xie Ni frowned, "What are you suspecting?"

Gu Nanzhi did have doubts in his heart.

She had always known that Jiang Linyue was alive, but she had never thought about her.

How can he be an ordinary person who can drive such a sharp archer?

You must know that even Xie Ni's subordinates do not have such a capable person. He is the chief minister of the cabinet and has been dormant for many years. He only wants to subvert the imperial power. The other party must have an extraordinary status and will never be worse than Xie Ni.

She asked herself that she had never offended such a person.

As for the enemies of father and brother, that is even more impossible.

Everyone in the court was involved in Xie Ni's plan, and none of them had the ability.

Could it be Jiang Linyue?

She wasn't sure either.

I believe there will be an answer when Linglong comes back.

Gu Nanzhi did not hide Xie Ni.

When Xie Ni found out that Pei Luobai's concubine had faked her death and escaped, he immediately sent someone to investigate.

"Why haven't I heard you mention it before?"

"In my opinion, this is not a big deal." Besides, they were not so familiar before. At that time, she was scared to death of Xie Ni.

"Besides, it doesn't have to be her."

"Well, don't worry, no one can escape." Xie Ni looked fearless.

Gu Wenhe has already woken up, and they don't have to stay up tonight.

After staying up all night last night, both of us were a little bit mentally exhausted.

The two of them were still next door to Gu Wenhe.

Gu Wenhe couldn't sleep either. He strained his ears to listen to what was going on next door. How was it inappropriate for a man and a woman to live alone in the same room?

He tried to sneak Xie Siti out several times, but he endured all of them.

But it's getting dark now.

Xie Ni didn't know how to avoid suspicion at all.

I don’t know where he has read so many sages’ books?

"Here comes someone!" He rolled his eyes and shouted at the top of his lungs.

"What's wrong with father?" Gu Nanzhi walked in after hearing the noise.

Even if he was angry, Gu Wenhe would not let it out on his daughter. Looking at Gu Nanzhi, his expression suddenly softened.

But looking at the man following her, his face froze and he said, "I'm bored. Go pick up a random book from the bookshelf and read it to me."

He said this to Gu Nanzhi, but the direction he was looking at was Xie Ni.

"Okay, father, please wait a moment." Gu Nanzhi turned around and was about to go, but Xie Ni had already taken a step ahead of her and randomly picked up a book from the bookshelf.

"Let me read it to my uncle!"

Gu Nanzhi nodded.

Gu Wenhe grunted dissatisfiedly, but didn't say anything. This was meant for him.

How can I read a few books to my future father-in-law? How aggrieved would that be?

Xie Ni's voice was neither fast nor slow, and it was deep and magnetic. It was obvious that his voice was very pleasant.

But Gu Wenhe didn't listen to what he heard. He would speak louder for a while, then softly for a while, but he would always find fault with him.

"Father..." Gu Nanzhi wanted to speak for Xie Ni, but Xie Ni shook his head at her.

Gu Wenhe suffered a setback at his place this morning, so he naturally had to ask him to make amends.

<divclass="contentadv">This matter will be over when he gets angry.

About an hour later, Linglong came back. It had just rained last night, and she didn't know where she had gone. Her feet were still stained with mud.

"Girl, the little beggar on the street got sick and died suddenly three days ago. My subordinate was afraid that there was some fraud involved, so he went out of the city to visit the mass grave."

"What's the result?" Gu Nazhi didn't believe that Brother Qian'er died like this. She was negligent. There was no movement from Jiang Linyue, so she stopped calling people to pay attention to Brother Qian'er.

Gu Wenhe didn't remember who Brother Qian was for a moment.

Linglong continued: "My subordinates found Brother Qian's body in a mass grave and found that he did not die of illness, but was poisoned. His face was bruised, and even his ten fingers were black and blue."

"Who would poison him?" Gu Nanzhi was full of doubts. Who could he, a blind beggar, interfere with?

Could it be that she guessed wrong, it wasn't Jiang Linyue.

A tiger's poison cannot eat its seeds. No matter who the father of Brother Qian is, he was born in Jiang Linyue's tenth month of pregnancy.

If it was Jiang Linyue, how could she cruelly poison Brother Qian?

Gu Nanzhi had already ruled out Jiang Linyue in his heart.

I thought I could clear the clouds and see the sun.

Unexpectedly, it became more and more foggy.

"It's getting late. Don't think about how difficult it is. I'll take you back to rest."

Gu Nanzhi said something to Gu Wenhe, then turned and left with Xie Tie.

"If you leave, who will read to me?" Gu Wenhe said, scratching his neck.

Xie Ni still didn't know what he was thinking, "I'll come as soon as I send Zhizhi back."

Xie Ni read to Gu Wenhe for half the night, and then Gu Wenhe let him go back to rest. He also specifically told him that he was only allowed to sleep next door, and he would ask people to keep an eye on him.

Gu Nanshan has moved back to his yard.

Xie Ni laughed.

The entire Gu family is already under his control. If he wants to do something, he can do it openly.

Even if he was right under Gu Wenhe's nose, he wouldn't know.

Seeing that he was about to cross the threshold, Gu Wenhe suddenly regretted, "I'm a little scared to be alone. You stay here with me."

As he spoke, he pointed to the soft couch beside him.

Xie Ni, "..."

He glanced at Gu Wenhe with a faint look, "Master Censor, do you want to hear what he said?"

Is he afraid?

He didn't know how many times he had pointed his finger at His Majesty's nose and scolded him.

What are you afraid of?

But I'm afraid of ghosts!

Are ghosts as scary as Your Majesty?

He asked someone to bring in the bed and quilts.

Seeing such a big man lying curled up on the soft couch, Gu Wenhe felt relieved all of a sudden.

What happened to the chief assistant?

You don't have to listen to him at home.

When Xie Ni was about to fall asleep, Gu Wenhe suddenly said, "It's okay not to have a wife, but Zhi Zhi's husband-in-law can only have her in this life, and she can never have a concubine."

Xie Ni suddenly opened his eyes, and the corner of his mouth relaxed, "Zhi Zhi is the best woman in the world. She alone is enough. If uncle doesn't believe it, I can make an oath."

This is not necessary, Gu Wenhe also knows what he is like, "I just hope you will remember what I said today. Although my official position is not as good as yours, if you take Zhizhi, I will definitely kill you even if it means taking my life." "

For the next few days, nothing happened.

The days seem to have returned to their previous calmness.

Even though Xie Ni asked people to investigate, they still didn't find out who rescued Jiang Linyue.

It's like an unsolvable mystery.

Tomorrow is the day when the Prince of Chu and the Ninth Princess enter the capital.
