Chapter 167 Guess
If there was no problem with Mei Niang, Xie Zhiyun would not have spent so much time talking to her, and was even willing to let her enter the house.

Xie Zhiyun took a deep look at Wei Ji, feeling sweet in his heart.

"The one who knows me is also the young master."

Wei Ji held her hand and did not let go, leading her all the way out of Chunhuating, and went outside.

"I didn't look carefully yesterday, but after a rough look today, I think that Mei Niang's face is a bit strange, she doesn't look like an ordinary local."

"She herself said that she is not a local, but I think she may be from Li Rong."

Wei Ji kept walking, but his mind was spinning quickly, and he immediately understood what Xie Zhiyun meant.

"You want to see if she is from Li Rong. If she is, she also knows other Li Rong people. Maybe she will know the clues of the Great Witch Li Rong."

Xie Zhiyun nodded and sighed.

"Even if the hope is slim, if I don't do anything, there is really no turning point. As long as there is a little clue, I don't want to give up."

Wei Ji squeezed her hand and said, "Madam has a heart."

"I hope there will be a good result this time," Xie Zhiyun said, "For Mrs. Ruan, she is probably willing to come to the house, but whether her background is clean and harmless, we still need to send someone to keep an eye on it. It's Li Rong, and when the time is right, lead her to meet Wen Ru, maybe she will confess on her own initiative."

"Don't worry, let's take one step at a time." Wei Ji said.

Xie Zhiyun also nodded, and smiled: "It's a surprise."

The two got on their horses and went straight out of Duke Su's mansion.

Normally, Wei Ji led his bodyguards to the camp in the western suburbs, but today there was a beautiful woman by his side.

Seeing the way the two of them talked and laughed at Yan Yan, the people of Yezhou could guess that this was the Young Madam.

Xie Zhiyun's clothes are very simple, clean and tidy, and there are no complicated buns or glittering jewelry on her head. The way she rides on a horse like this really has the bearing of a Wu family lady, not like a daughter of a clan at all.

Xie Zhiyun's riding skills were also good, but Wei Ji still slowed down and stayed by her side, and the two of them walked out of Yezhou City all the way.

When the soldiers guarding the city saw that Xie Zhijun was also leaving the city together, their surprised eyes almost popped out.

Feng put it behind and said, "Quickly let it go!"

The soldiers guarding the city just woke up like a dream, and hurriedly opened the fence.

People lining up, look at me and I look at you, and those who are brave enough to talk to Wei Ji.

"Major General, this is Young Madam."

Wei Ji didn't answer, but Xie Zhiyun nodded to them politely: "It's me."

Her attitude was polite and natural, and the man who was talking blushed suddenly, and he didn't dare to say anything.

The aunt next to her laughed, "Young Madam is so beautiful."

Xie Zhiyun also smiled slightly.

"Thank you for the compliment."

After saying a few words, the two of them left the city, speeded up and arrived at Daying in the western suburbs.

Xie Zhiyun has been to the camp in the western suburbs several times, and all the soldiers in the camp know her. Now when they see her, they all greet her loudly: "Young Madam, good morning."

"Young Madam, I'm busy again."

Talking to them all the way, very busy.

Finally Wei Ji stared: "You guys talk so much, have you practiced today?"

The soldiers roared with laughter and dispersed.

Xie Zhiyun turned around and saw Wei Ji frowning with impatience.

"What's wrong?" she asked, tilting her head.

Seeing her cute appearance, Wei Ji couldn't help being sour: "They must think Madam is nice, so they want to talk to you."

Xie Zhiyun: "..."

Xie Zhiyun laughed out loud.

"Then I'll say a few more words in the future?" Xie Zhiyun is very good at coaxing him, "If the little father-in-law is unhappy, I won't say anything. If you are happy, I will say one more word, okay?"

Wei Ji also imitated her by tilting his neck and making an inch: "Alright then, but you have to listen to me."

The two were chatting and laughing, and the people around couldn't get in the way. Liu Zhaohui had been waiting in front of the barracks. Seeing that Wei Ji had been lingering until now and didn't come over, he couldn't help talking to Li Jiye: "Before getting married, you still talk hard, say I don't want to get married, I'm afraid I'll be too cold and too busy to hurt my wife."

"Look at his dog-legged appearance," Liu Zhaohui curled his lips, "Looks like a pug, why is it cold?"

Li Jiye almost didn't laugh, but coughed lightly, and said seriously: "Don't talk nonsense, be careful, the major general heard it and punished you to clean the toilet."

Liu Zhaohui immediately kept silent.

Wei Ji and Xie Zhijun came all the way to the barracks, exchanged some pleasantries, and then asked how the Peng brothers were doing.

Liu Zhaohui raised his eyebrows and looked rather sharp.

"What else can I do? I just keep silent and don't say anything when asked." Liu Zhaohui has seen countless traitors and is especially experienced. Greed for life and fear of death."

"They will not easily seek death and life, just grasp this point and interrogate repeatedly."

Wei Ji nodded, looked back at Xie Zhijun, and led Liu Zhaohui and others into the barracks.

The two brothers were detained separately, and they interrogated Ertou Peng first.

Peng Ertou's neck was hastily wrapped in gauze, and there were bloodstains on the gauze, which obviously bled a lot yesterday.

He didn't sleep all night, and he lost too much blood. Now his eyes are black and blue, his lips are pale, and he looks like he has suffered a serious illness.

He shuddered very slightly at the sound of approaching footsteps.

Xie Zhijun and Wei Ji sat opposite him, and Wei Ji said, "Peng Ertou, why did you deliberately set fire to the farm?"

Peng Er's head trembled all over, and there was obvious panic on his face.

The Peng family brothers are different from Wang Eryong, they are not the outstanding ones who have survived countless battlefields, they are just ordinary people.

If such a person is an insider, a spy, or a traitor, it is fine if he is not discovered, but if he is discovered, he will be exposed immediately.

Just like Peng Ertou, Mrs. Ruan obviously didn't notice anything, and the two brothers were still thinking about killing people to silence them.

This is due to lack of experience and lack of training.

As soon as Wei Ji came up, he went straight to the vital point, and hit Peng Ertou hard.

"I..." Peng Ertou's voice was dry, "I didn't."

He did speak.

He was guilty and afraid, and he didn't say anything at first, just wanting to procrastinate for a day, but now he was afraid that it would not work.

Peng Ertou raised his head and saw Wei Ji first, he trembled all over, then looked to the side again.

Then I saw Xie Zhijun sitting there leisurely, looking at him with a smile on his face.

Peng Ertou's mentality collapsed.

Xie Zhiyun's behavior of "torturing" him yesterday is still fresh in his memory. The wounds on his neck have not healed, and he bleeds from time to time.

He thought Xie Zhiyun was scarier than Wei Ji.

"I...I said." He didn't want to be tortured anymore.
