"Then... "How can that be ?" Wan Shun was flattered as he stammered.

Fan Min laughed and said: "You are my savior, so there's no need to be polite to me anymore."

Seeing that Fan Min and Wan Sheng were talking happily, and their relationship had already been brought closer by a large leap, without the enmity they had when they first met, Tang Yin was extremely happy, and said to Wan Sheng: "Seeing that Miss Xiu Wan is fine, I can relax, you can rest easy here. As for the assassin, I have already sent people to investigate, and I will give Miss Xiu Wan an explanation."

"This time ?" This little girl has caused trouble for your majesty again. " Wan Sian said apologetically.

Tang Yin smiled as he waved his hand. He comforted her a little more and then let Fan Min take his place to look after her.

Through this matter, Fan Min's good impression of Wan Sheng had indeed increased greatly. Fan Min waited until she had taken all the medicines and rested before returning to her Tai An Palace.

Entering the Main Palace, a thirty year old palace maid beside Fan Min said indignantly: "Miss, as a madam, how is it proper to serve a commoner?!"

This palace maid's name was Xiu Chun, and she was Fan Min's personal Maidservant before she even left the pavilion. She had been by her side for more than ten years, and could be considered to be her most caring maid.

Hearing Xiu Chun's complaints, Fan Min was overjoyed. "No matter what, I was surprised that she was able to save me with her life."

"Humph!" If it wasn't for the assassin who suddenly appeared last night, she would have already fallen off the cliff and died! " XiuChun said angrily.

Fan Min frowned and looked around. Seeing that there were no other palace maids in the hall, she heaved a sigh of relief and said to Soo Chun in a deep voice, "You are not allowed to mention this matter anymore!"

"Yes, Miss. Your servant spoke too much." Soo Chun stuck out her tongue and then muttered with a puzzled face, "It's fine, why would there suddenly be an assassin? "Miss, this servant suspects that these assassins were found by that slut, Wan Sheng."

Fan Min laughed and replied with a question: "She found an assassin to assassinate me, and then blocked a sword for me?" As she spoke, she tapped on XiuChun's head with her finger and shook her head. "I really don't know what you think all day."

Soo Chun said anxiously, "Miss, don't blame me for speaking too much. Who knows if it's that bitch's trick?" Furthermore, in order for their Yuexiu Manor to enter the Feng Country, what they are most afraid of is that they will be pushed aside by the Fan Family, purposely putting on a show and making her become Young Miss's savior. In the future, if the Fan Family were to push them out of the way again, it will become an injustice, and at that time, even the King will have to help them! "

Fan Min took a deep breath, and could not help but ponder.

Would it really be like XiuChun said? If that was the case, then his scheme was too terrifying. But when she thought about it again, she silently shook her head. She felt that Soo Chun was too suspicious. She was afraid that she would treat him as a gentleman with contempt.

"Alright, it's a fact that Wan Sheng saved my life. From now on, don't say such words anymore, do you understand?"

"Yes!" "Miss!" Seeing that Fan Min was unhappy, Xiuchun pouted and replied with a wronged expression.

There was not only one other person who linked the culprit who hired the assassins to Wan Cheng, the other person was Ai Wei who was just promoted by Tang Yin. He had always believed that if an assassin could sneak into the Lady's camp, someone inside would be helping.

Madam would not find someone to assassinate him, so the biggest suspect would be Wan-shen. If Madam was killed, then the biggest gain would be Wan-shen.

In order to confirm his suspicions, he even went to Su Yelei and asked her about the injuries on her body.

The reply Su Yelei gave him disappointed him, to the point where she was even surprised and unable to understand his question. From the wounds, it could be seen that the assassin had used a deathblow, leaving no room for escape. That sword strike had basically pierced through tens of thousands of slots in the body, even though it had deviated from the heart, it was still a fatal wound. If she had not rushed over in time, and only relied on the Medical Officer present to protect her, it would have been impossible for her to not show any mercy.

Through Su Yelei's explanation, Ai Wei had no choice but to exclude those who were suspected, but those people accompanying him, it was even more impossible to have a secret relationship with the assassin.

None of those accompanying her were outsiders. They were all palace maids, palace guards, and even had a large number of Hidden Arrow Crew. So how could these people possibly send their wives to their deaths?

Even if there was really such a vicious person in the palace, why would they have to fight outside?

Ai Wei could not understand no matter how he thought about it. In these past few days, he had interrogated almost all of the palace maids, guards, and even the Hidden Arrow Crew s that accompanied them.

In just the past few days, Ai Wei had barely slept an entire night, and his entire person seemed to have lost a lot of weight.

It was not that he needed to be a deputy head of Lieutenant's Mansion, but he did not want others to say that he was unable to do so due to his insufficient ability, and was unable to take over his cousin Gu Chen's position.

That morning, Ai Wei was resting at home. A servant came to report that Gu Chen was here and was waiting for him in the hall. Ai Wei who was in a daze sleeping soundly suddenly sat up from the bed. He grabbed a jacket casually and dragged his shoes before running out.

Seeing Gu Chen in the hall, Ai Wei quickly stepped forward, with his eyes wide open, he asked: "Cousin brother, why are you here?"

"I heard that the King gave you a case, and since I was free today, I came to take a look ?" Gu Chen, who was admiring the paintings and calligraphy hung on the wall, turned around. Seeing Ai Wei, he was also shocked, and did not finish his words.2

After not seeing him for a few days, Ai Wei had not only lost a lot of weight, his face was covered in stubble, his eyes were green, and his lips were white.

Sigh! He sighed in his heart. Now you know how difficult it is to raise the Lieutenant's Mansion of this' Capital Yamen ', right?

He lifted up his sleeves and sat down, then picked up the cup of warm tea brought up by the servants. He took a few sips and asked, "Is the King's case a little difficult to handle?"

"It's far more than difficult. It's simply a headless case!"

Ai Wei sat down next to his cousin and took the teacup from Gu Chen. With a gulu sound, he drank the entire cup. Washing his throat, he went through the whole thing and his own analysis from beginning to end.

Gu Chen listened seriously, nodding his head occasionally, and shook it occasionally. After Ai Wei finished speaking, he agreed, "I feel that your analysis is correct.

"But this is also a dead end. "Madam and Wanshen are not related to assassins, and I have carefully investigated the people who came with them, so there is no problem."

"You also said it yourself, those who accompany you are palace maids, guards and Hidden Arrow Crew. If these people could stay in the palace for any work, they would have long since been under strict scrutiny, and even the ancestors eight generations of people have been thoroughly investigated, there won't be a problem."

"So this is a dead end, I have no way to keep investigating ?"

"That may not be so!" Gu Chen laughed and said: "I'm afraid you have missed out some of the people that are accompanying us."

"What?" Ai Wei opened his eyes wide in shock and muttered: "I missed a bit? "That's impossible ?"

"As the Villa Master of the Yuexiu Manor, does she not even have a Maidservant by her side?"

Ai Wei blinked, and thought for a long time before slowly saying: "It's still ? "There really isn't anyone here ?"

Suddenly, his body trembled as he anxiously said: "No, there's a steward by her side, a steward called Wan Fu, but he's the second steward of Yuexiu Manor, the most capable and trusted subordinate of Wan Sheng ?"

"Yes!" Gu Chen laughed and said: "Sometimes, when servants do things, they might not necessarily let their masters know first. Once things are done and done properly, if I were to ask their masters for credit, then the contribution would be even greater, wouldn't it?"

Ah!" Ivy took a deep breath, something he hadn't taken into account.

At the time of the investigation, since Blessed Wan was Wan Sheng's confidant, he naturally believed that there was no suspicion, but he had overlooked the possibility that his servant might be working behind his master's back.

Seeing Ai Wei deep in thought, not saying anything for a long time, and the expression on his face changing unpredictably, Gu Chen laughed: "I have not dealt with this case, so it's not appropriate for me to have an opinion on it, what I just said was just casually said ?"

"As the saying goes, the spectator knows; the onlooker is a fan! "Cousin, thank you so much. I have to go first!" With that, Ai Wei jumped up like his butt was on fire, and quickly ran out.

"Hey, Wei, cousin hasn't even eaten yet!"

"Let your servant do it for you ?" Ai Wei's voice came back from afar.

Gu Chen shook his head and laughed, then suddenly remembered something, and shouted towards the empty door: "Remember to put the Official Robe on, wash your face clean, don't sloppy and just go out." Since their positions were different, they had to pay attention to their image.

Probably, Ai Wei who had already run away, would not be able to hear what he had said.

In fact, it was just as Gu Chen had said. He had only said it casually, but the person who said it did not have any intention.

First of all, as the second steward of the Yuexiu Manor, he naturally hoped that Yuexiu Manor could smoothly enter the Feng Country. As long as Fan Min died, his Fan Family would lose its power within the Feng Country.

Secondly, he had the ability. To others, a hundred thousand taels of silver would be an astronomical figure. Even if it was Hidden Arrow Crew s, it was impossible for them to take out so much money so quickly. However, Thousand Blessings definitely had the ability. In addition, he was a person close to Wan Sheng and also a guest of Feng Country. His movements within the camp were relatively fluid and it wasn't difficult for him to secretly leave behind clues for the assassins.

As the saying goes, everything was done in one go. Gu Chen's casual suggestion allowed him to see the light of day once again.
