Jiang Yi stared at him for a while, his eyebrows slightly curved: "You should take care of yourself first."

"Master, I'm serious..." Pei Xiangyun said softly, "I can do anything for you."

Jiang Yi avoided his stubborn eyes: "Go and apply medicine to yourself, or you'll sleep outside the door tonight."

Pei Xiangyun took one last look at him, then turned and walked out the door of the bedroom.

Jiang Yi looked at the faintly flickering candlelight and sighed inwardly.

A voice that I hadn't heard for a long time suddenly sounded from my ears: "What's on your mind, Mr. Jiang?"

Jiang Yi tapped his fingertips on the armrest and paused: "Fan Baye, long time no see."

"The underworld is busy..." Fan Wujiu said, "What's more, your place is the most reassuring place, so it's okay if you don't come to see it."

"Is it the most reassuring?"

Jiang Yi muttered thoughtfully: "Before I didn't know that under this gold and jade, there are countless failures."

Fan Wujiu was silent for a while: "You should have thought of it."

"I thought there would be, but I didn't think there would be so many..." Jiang Yi whispered, "They are always there. No matter the dynasty changes, it is these people who suffer."

Fan Wujiu's voice was still as emotionless as before: "Master Jiang, do you know why I said that your place is the most reassuring?"

Jiang Yi shook his head.

"If it were someone else who did it all over again, maybe because they were addicted to sensuality or love between men and women, they would be so happy that they would not think about it, and completely disregard other people's lives..."

Fan Wujiu said, "But you are different. In your heart, everything related to the people is always higher than others, so since you came back, you have only one obsession, and there is no need to worry about it."

Jiang Yi smiled bitterly: "Fan Baye doesn't need to put a high hat on me."

"It's not about wearing a high hat..." Fan Wujiu said indifferently, "At least you can be ruthless enough to end it, right?"

Before Jiang Yi could answer, the door was pushed open.

"Master, who were you talking to just now?"

Jiang Yi looked up at him as if nothing had happened: "I didn't say anything, did you hear me wrong?"

Pei Xiangyun frowned slightly, and looked around the room suspiciously, but he did not see anyone.

But just now he clearly heard the teacher seemed to be whispering to someone.

"Take your medicine well..." Jiang Yi whispered, "There are so many questions every day."

He propped up the table and stood up, but suddenly heard a soft "jingle", as if something had fallen to the ground.

Jiang Yi lowered his eyes, and found that half of the jade plaque picked up in the Song Mansion was quietly lying on the table leg.

He leaned over to pick up the jade tablet, feeling that he had seen a piece very similar to it somewhere.

What is it...

Seeing him standing there, Pei Xiangyun whispered worriedly, "Master?"

Jiang Yi just wanted him to stop talking, but when his eyes fell on his injured hand, he suddenly stopped.

He remembered.

On the night of the New Year's Eve banquet, after comforting Lu Yifeng, he got up and found half a broken round jade tablet in the bushes.

Jiang Yi quickly pushed aside the scrolls and documents on the table, and found what he was looking for under them.

He put the two halves of the jade tablet on the table, and then slowly aligned the gaps on both sides, and a white jade carved totem gradually became clear.

Pei Xiangyun also came over: "Master, this is..."

Jiang Yi pointed to the left half of the jade tablet: "I picked this up in the garden behind the Qingping Palace that night. It and the half of the jade tablet left by Mr. Pu in the Song Mansion today can exactly form a complete pattern."

"That evening?"

Pei Xiangyun's nerves suddenly tightened, and even his voice was filled with hatred: "Did he kill someone?"

"I don't know."

Jiang Yi frowned tightly, feeling something strange.

Half of the jade plaque appeared at the scene of the murder, while the other half fell from Pu Yan's body. This point is not obvious, but it is too obvious.

It was as if someone was pushing all the development behind him, piling up all the evidence against Pu Yan in front of Jiang Yi, as if secretly asking him to give up and continue the investigation.

"What's not clear?"

Pei Xiangyun's voice was a bit more cold: "Since this half of the jade plaque appeared at the place where Mei... Mei Yanran died, and the other half fell from Pu Shilang's body, it doesn't mean that there is something wrong with him. ?"

Jiang Yi glanced at him and sighed softly in his heart.

Still naive.

He put away the two halves of the shattered jade tablet: "I'll go to Pu Shilang's house tomorrow and ask him what's going on."

However, Pei Xiangyun wrapped the fine cloth that had been half-untied from his injured hand back again: "Why don't you go now? The students think it's better to go now."

Jiang Yi narrowed his eyes and gritted his teeth a little more in his voice: "Do you think I don't want to?"

"Then why don't you go?" Pei Xiangyun became even more puzzled, "Since the teacher also wants to, let's go now?"

"Did you forget that Yan has a curfew?"

Jiang Yi tidied up the documents that had just been messed up: "They were just waiting to catch me. If I take you to wander the streets in the middle of the night, at least there will be a report of impeachment at Yushitai tomorrow, and at worst You will be executed on the spot."

What's more, Pei Xiangyun sneaked out.

Even though Pei Xiangyun's innocence had been proven that afternoon, he didn't believe that no one would listen to Hong Wendi at this great opportunity.

I don't know which of Emperor Hongwen's ambiguous attitude and the corrupt officials colluding with the court will make him more anxious.

Pei Xiangyun let out an "Oh" in annoyance, the cold light in his eyes went out, and he looked very dejected.

He said softly: "Master, don't be angry, the student just wants to avenge her too much."

Jiang Yi didn't speak. After a long while, he raised his hand and rubbed his hair: "I know..."

Pei Xiangyun froze in the same place suddenly, his heart was full of confusion and he had nowhere to rest, he stared blankly at the back of the man walking away: "Master, I..."

Jiang Yi didn't seem to hear his murmur, and went out of the room to boil water and wash.

-

But on the second day, they didn't have the chance to personally ask Pu Yan what happened to the two broken jade plaques, and where was Mei Yanran when he was killed.

Jiang Yi had something on his mind, so he woke up very early in the morning, and saw the wolf cub curled up next to the bed, thousands of miles away from him.

He conveniently put the brocade quilt on Pei Xiangyun's body, and as soon as he went out of the house, he saw Li Youchuan and a few other boys whispering together.

Seeing him approaching, the young servants hurriedly distanced themselves and dispersed as if nothing had happened.

Li Youchuan scratched his head in embarrassment: "Master..."

"What did you just say?" Jiang Yi glanced at the direction where those people left, "Why did I run away as soon as I came?"

Li Youchuan said softly: "Isn't that talking about court officials behind their backs, for fear of being punished by you?"

"Court officials?"

Jiang Yi asked him, "Which court official?"

"At once……"

Li Youchuan felt that it was not very good to say these things in front of him, so he coughed lightly: "I heard that the minister of the Ministry of War committed suicide at home today."

Jiang Yi's breathing stopped suddenly, and he grabbed Li Youchuan's collar a little out of composure: "Who are you talking about?"

Li Youchuan had never seen his young master so excited, and he was taken aback, he hesitated and said: "Bing, Minister of the Ministry of War, I also heard from Lao Zhang at the wonton stall outside, it's not too..."

Jiang Yi let go of his grip on his collar, and ran straight out of Jiang's mansion without wearing a cloak.

Pu Yan's residence is not too far from Jiangfu, but only two streets away.

When it was not too late, there were not many people on the street, and they all gathered in front of a mansion and whispered head to head.

Jiang Yi squeezed to the front from the crowd with a cold face, just in time to see the person who performed Mei Yanran's autopsy a few days ago come out of the mansion.

The forensic doctor still looked sluggish. It seemed that the high-ranking official who died unexpectedly in the past few days had brought him a lot of pressure, which made him unable to cheer up. He said to the servant next to him wearily: "Let them Scatter, nothing to see."

Ding Yiyan chased away people from that family, but he couldn't resist the curiosity of the people at all.

Jiang Yi quickly walked a few steps and stopped in front of Wu Zuo. Before he could speak, the soldiers who followed him said with a stern face, "Who are you? Don't interfere with our government's affairs."

But Wu Zuo recognized him and blamed him: "This is the prime minister, don't be rude."

The soldier probably had never seen the prime minister in real life, his face turned pale immediately, and he was about to salute and apologize, but he didn't think that the young prime minister was not going to talk to him at all, instead he hurriedly asked him: "Who is the dead person? "

"It's Pu Shilang..." Wu Zuo said, "He hanged himself."

suicide?

How can this be?

When they met in the Song Mansion the day before, although Pu Shilang looked haggard, he didn't show any thoughts of being world-weary and committing suicide. He even seemed to have something to say to himself before leaving.

"By the way, a few days ago, Mr. Jiang, weren't you still investigating the cause of the fifteenth princess' death?"

Wu Zuo took out a piece of paper from his cloth bag: "This is Pu Shilang's suicide note before he died. It said that he had plotted against the princess for a long time, and he couldn't help but want to deceive people into the back garden. But the princess died He refused, and was finally killed by him by mistake, and pushed the body into the water in order to cover up the evidence."

The handwriting on that piece of paper was scribbled, and he wrote a lot about his pain and remorse about killing people by right and wrong hands. In the end, he said that he was willing to die for another life, and hoped that the princess' spirit in heaven could forgive him.

But Mei Yanran is not stupid.

Although she has a mischievous personality, she is very smart and will cleverly avoid things that may be detrimental to herself.She was not familiar with Pu Yan, so how could she be so easily tricked by a grown man into the back garden?

What's more, Mei Yanran has the same wound on Mei Yanran's wrist that the raccoon slave scratched, how should he explain it?

Suddenly, Jiang Yi could only hear the faster and faster heartbeat in his chest due to anger, and the noise around him was completely deafened, and the blood in his body seemed to be frozen, which only made him feel chills all over.

It shouldn't be like this.

Perhaps Pu Yan did something wrong, but he will never be a murderer.

Jiang Yi seemed to be able to sense that the huge monster had revealed the tip of the iceberg, arrogantly and complacently observing himself in the dark, admiring his appearance like a headless chicken spinning around in a prison.

"Where's Pu Shilang's family?" Jiang Yi whispered, "Did his wife and children report the case?"

Wu Zuo was stunned: "Wife and child?"

"There is only Pu Shilang and a dozen family members in the mansion, and the lower officials have not seen his other relatives."
