Chapter 310 He has never seen such a smart Shen Lanxi!
Yesterday, I visited the neighbors of the officers and soldiers guarding the city. Today, Shen Lanxi plans to dig deeper into the background of some of these people.
Those people have no relatives, so they can only get it from the officers and soldiers on duty.
Shen Lanxi led Zhou Ruyuan straight to the city gate.
"Master Shen, what are we going to do? Can you tell me in advance?" Seeing that Shen Lanxi went his own way without consulting him at all, Zhou Ruyuan made his own conclusions and felt a little unhappy.
Shen Lanxi: "If the imperial decree in my hand is correct, His Majesty has appointed me to investigate the Wei Jiajun case."
Zhou Ruyuan did not expect that Shen Lanxi would not show mercy at all, and said with a sullen face: "Your Majesty also issued an edict. , let me work with Mr. Shen to investigate the case. "
Shen Lanxi said calmly: "Well, if you have any objections to this case, just speak up."
Zhou Ruyuan smiled confidently. He discussed it with his adviser for half a night. Just to get the initiative to investigate the case.
“I believe that we should focus on tracking their whereabouts.”
Shen Lanxi smiled softly: "Your Majesty and I are just the opposite. Since we have different ideas, why not just separate and investigate our own cases!"
Zhou Ruyuan looked at Shen Lanxi with a cold face: "Your Majesty asked us to investigate the case together. ."
Shen Lanxi's tone was sharp, and she thrust forward without hiding her edge.
"When there are conflicting opinions, who should be listened to, and who should be the leader?"
Zhou Ruyuan thought, naturally he should be the leader.
He thought so in his heart, but said: "Of course who has the right to listen to whom."
Shen Lanxi: "Based?"
Zhou Ruyuan's eyes moved and he replied: "We can argue, who Whatever you say makes sense, just listen to whoever says it."
Shen Lanxi looked at Che Mingyuan, who immediately stepped forward.
"Master Shen sent people to check their whereabouts yesterday. Those people deliberately confused the public and left in different directions. Although Master Shen thought that sending people to search in all directions was equivalent to finding a needle in a haystack, I sent someone to check, but they all came back this morning and found nothing.”
Zhou Ruyuan was very dissatisfied with Che Mingyuan's conversation with him.
“Since you have sent people there, why didn’t you inform this king?”
Che Mingyuan: “All the files are in Dali Temple, and the prince can check them at any time.”
Zhou Ruyuan's face turned even darker. Shen Lanxi made it clear that she wanted to get rid of him and investigate the case alone.
Whether it is for credit or for face, he must solve the case and make Shen Lanxi look at him differently.
"Then follow your arrangements. Next time you have arrangements, you must inform me in advance. My father said that this case must be written down and reported to him every day!"
Che Mingyuan bowed Shen: "Yes!"
Next, Shen Lanxi personally asked the people who had interactions with the officers and soldiers guarding the city, from very close contacts to just talking.
Zhou Ruyuan was watching from the sidelines. At first he felt it was boring, but gradually he became fascinated by what he was listening to and watching.
Shen Lanxi took the trouble to ask each question several times. If the person's answer was different from the previous one, she would continue to dig deeper.
He has never seen such a smart Shen Lanxi!
The morning passed quickly, and at noon, Wei Dongzhu came over.
"I made a reservation at Guangxing Building, where the plum-roasted white plums are famous throughout the capital. Let's go over now. The table will be set there!" Wei Dongzhu looked at Shen Lanxi with a smile.
The latter smiled lightly: "I just have an hour's rest time at noon!"
Zhou Ruyuan watched the two of them talking and laughing, and their gestures were extremely intimate, and the anger in his heart slowly burned. rise.
If nothing happened to the Shen family, Shen Lanxi would be his wife now. Now she was talking and laughing with another man in front of him. Was she deliberately taking revenge on him?
No wonder she made such sarcastic remarks this morning, it turned out that she had always hated him in her heart!
"Your Majesty, I have an appointment with someone, so I'm going to have dinner." Shen Lanxi turned around and wanted to leave.
Zhou Ruyuan: "I just heard that you were going to Guangxing Tower. It just so happens that today is the first time we work together. I am treating you as a host and invite Mr. Shen and General Wei to go with you."
Wei Dongzhu had a smile on his lips and looked into Zhou Ruyuan's eyes, which were not warm at all.
“I won’t bother you, Your Majesty. The official has already booked a seat. Lan Xi and I have something to discuss, so it’s not convenient for Your Majesty to go there!”
When Zhou Ruyuan heard that Wei Dongzhu actually said, Calling Shen Lanxi's name, the jealousy in her heart could no longer be concealed.
"Lan Xi, are you still angry with me?"
Wei Dongzhu's face instantly turned cold.
"My lord, please be careful. Lord Shen and your lord have no relationship at all." Wei Dongzhu stood half in front of Shen Lanxi.
The people around me clearly felt that something was wrong with the atmosphere.
One is a former husband, and the other is a general who followed him all the way from Dongchuan to the northwest. It is obvious that the ex-husband dislikes his ex-wife's admirer.
"Wei Dongzhu, let's go!"
Wei Dongzhu, who was tense one moment, turned around and followed him the next.
For a dignified man to listen to a woman's words so clearly shows that the relationship between the two is not simple.
Thinking of all the messages in Beijing about the two of them, there were a lot of different opinions.
Zhou Ruyuan looked at the two people leaving before and after, his face was as dark as ink and he shook his sleeves angrily and left.
The incident of the three people breaking up unhappy on the street was split into multiple versions, which quickly spread throughout the capital.
The most widely circulated thing is that when Shen Lanxi was in the northwest, she had made a private life-long arrangement with Wei Dongzhu. Wei Dongzhu was so angry that he would rather hide behind the scenes than give up all the credit to Shen Lanxi.
Shen Lanxi, the Marquis of Zhenbei, did not live up to his reputation. He used her body as a woman to defraud him of military exploits and deceived the king. He was committing a heinous crime!
Imperial Palace
Emperor Renxiao looked at Wu Yanzhidao and said solemnly: "We have made great contributions to the recovery of the northwest. I don't want tomorrow's memorial to contain words that are not worthy of the name."
Wu Yanzhi had known that these charges would not threaten Shen Lanxi. He came here for another matter.
"Your Majesty, on the street, in full view of the public, all the people saw that Shen Lanxi had angered King Zhennan for Wei Dongzhu. She is a woman after all, and she needs to be restrained in public."
>
Emperor Renxiao nodded.
On the second day, the memorial of Shen Lanxi, a woman who did not abide by women's etiquette, was presented to Emperor Renxiao's desk like snowflakes.
Emperor Renxiao scolded Shen Congwen casually in the court hall, and then treated the matter perfunctorily.
Shen Congwen returned home with a dark face. Unexpectedly, another thing that made him even more dark-faced was waiting for him at home.
"Master, Bailu Academy sent a message saying that the young master in our mansion is not suitable to study in the academy, so I don't need to prepare for admission."
Shen Congwen almost fainted after hearing this.
"The people in the academy must have heard about Shen Lanxi's rebellious behavior on the street, so they didn't accept the children of the Shen family. Go and find Shen Lanxi for me!" Shen Congwen's face turned red and he looked like he wanted to eat. Human appearance.
Shen Lanxi also encountered a thorny problem. The six witnesses held in the Dali Temple prison all died overnight.
Everyone died of poisoning!
After the autopsy, Ban Sicao said: "It was the soul that died. It went into the stomach with the food, and then fell asleep. So when these people died, there was no movement at all!"
