Chapter 281

The University Scholars Mansion was flooded, and the flames shot up to the sky. It burned for a full two hours, and everyone knew it before noon.The people got together and guessed who the person who set the fire was. Even the storyteller in the teahouse took out what happened last night and guessed it with the judge.

When the emperor learned about this, he specially sent his personal servant Yu Liansheng to visit the University Scholars Mansion, and learned that an assassin broke into the University Scholars Mansion last night, not only burning down the backyard of the University Scholars Mansion, but also stabbing Wang Zhong.The emperor specially granted him a half-month leave to let him recuperate.

Before noon, the discussion outside had already changed. They all praised Yuan Haochu as a good monarch who is benevolent and caring for the people. Some even felt aggrieved about what happened last night. Dao Wang Zhong is a loyal minister of the Liang Dynasty. Some people must think that he is not used to talent On purpose.

Su Yan reported the news that he heard outside, while Bai Ziwan listened quietly, apparently not paying attention, his eyes moved towards the screen from time to time, three hours had passed, and he still hadn't woken up.Thinking that the residual poison in the body was not cleared, Su Yan took the pulse and said that everything was as usual.

Seeing this, she couldn't say much, she could only wait patiently.

"Loyal minister?" Yuan Hongjin smiled coldly, turned to look at Su Yan, "Apart from these, did you find anything else?"

Su Yan shook his head.

Yuan Hongjin frowned in thought, shook his head for a long time, and seemed to be talking to himself, "It shouldn't be like this, it shouldn't be like this..."

"Lao Liu, what's wrong with you? What do you mean you shouldn't do this?"

Yuan Hongjin suddenly turned around, thought for a while, and said, "Last night, Brother Wu and I sneaked into the old fox's study, not only found the booklet, but also found a large amount of gold, silver, jewelry, and tributes hidden in the darkroom, so we released the book. Set the fire, and sent someone to the palace to report the letter in advance, thinking that someone would get all the stolen goods, why didn't we find anything? And we only burned the study, how could the whole backyard catch fire? How could the old fox be injured?"

"I went to see the scholar's mansion. The backyard was indeed burnt to the ground. Wang Zhong was lying in the room, but I didn't find the gold, silver, jewelry and tribute you mentioned."

"Really?" Yuan Hongyi looked at Su Yan, "Then did you find the hidden guard?"

Dark guard?Su Yan shook his head, looking determined.Suddenly remembered something, "That's right, when I left, I saw the servants of the palace carrying some boxes into a carriage, and those servants... Now that I think about it, it is very likely that they are the hidden guards that the prince mentioned."

"Bang", Yuan Hongjin slapped his palm on the table, his gaze was like a torch, "Good job Wang Zhong! You have played tricks on me."

"He didn't mean to play with you, but he hit you right."

Seeing the person coming out from behind the screen, Bai Ziwan quickly went up to support him, "Are you awake? Are you feeling better? Do you want Su Yan to invite Ru Feng over to show you?" Although Su Yan knew medical skills, But it was just superficial, she was worried after all.

"I'm fine." Yuan Hongyi smiled weakly, and sat down while leaning on the edge of the table.

"Why don't you know how to approve the clothes when you come out?" Bai Ziwan blamed, then turned around and went in to get a dress for him to put on.

"Fifth brother, what did you mean just now? What do you mean by hitting right? You mean, that old fox knew that I would go, so he acted like that? So, the letter yesterday was specially sent by that old fox. of?"

"We have read the brochure. If Wang Zhong really sent someone to send it, why would he leave the brochure in the study?"

"Then what do you mean..." Yuan Hongjin was confused.

Yuan Hongyi remained silent, smiled slightly, and looked at Bai Ziwan.Bai Ziwan was taken aback, "What are you looking at me for? There is no answer on my face."

Yuan Hongyi's smile remained undiminished, he only lifted his chin slightly, and said softly, his voice was a little hoarse due to his weakness, "What do you think it will be like?"

This guy!Bai Ziwan pursed his lips, and said without hesitation, "Big trees attract wind, and wealth attracts thieves. Wang Zhong understands this truth, so no matter how careful and cautious, it is always wrong to put things in the house. If I guessed correctly , Wang Zhong had long wanted to transfer the things, but there was no chance. However, after last night, he became more certain, so he decided to stab himself, burn his own backyard, divert everyone's attention, and then transport those things away. Unknowingly."

After all, Bai Ziwan raised his eyebrows and looked at Yuan Hongyi, his eyes seemed to say, Lord, I am right.Yuan Hongyi nodded appreciatively and smiled dotingly.

"Damn it!" Yuan Hongjin slapped the table again, his eyes widened with anger, and then he looked at Yuan Hongyi, "Fifth brother, do we want to forget this?"

Yuan Hongyi smiled coldly, with bloodlust in his eyes, and said flatly, "Lao Liu, send someone to tell Ning Lan and the others later, and ask them to find a way to find out where Wang Zhong sent the things before tomorrow. Then he said, "Give me the brochure."

This morning, after Yuan Hongjin handed over the brochure to Bai Ziwan, she kept it in her clothes. Hearing what he said, she quickly handed over the brochure.

"I'll heat up the food and bring it in." After finishing speaking, Bai Ziwan glanced at Su Yan, got up and walked out of the house.

"Miss, what are your orders?"

Bai Ziwan walked into the kitchen with plain words, and said in a low voice, "You message elder brother now, and see if he can bring people to the capital tomorrow."

"Miss means...do you want to help Fifth Lord and the others?"

"I know it's selfish of me to do this, but..." After a pause, Bai Ziwan continued, "You have also seen that both Yi and Lao Liu were injured, and they have hated the Wang family for a long time. , I will definitely not let go of this opportunity. So..."

"Miss, I understand. It's just that the dark pavilion is too far away from here. Even if I pass the letter to the master Feige now, the distant water cannot save the near fire. Don't worry, miss, the master has already explained that no matter what you have, you will ask me to help you." Help you do it, so the master gave me this before leaving."

"This is..." Bai Ziwan looked at the wooden sign in Su Yan's hand in surprise, she had seen it at Gong Mingyu's before, so she was no stranger to it.

"This is the token of the Dark Pavilion. Seeing it is like seeing the owner. Anyone in the Dark Pavilion will cooperate unconditionally as long as they see this token." Su Yan said, "The Dark Pavilion has branches in various places, including those in the capital. The palace also has them, I will contact them in a while."

"Su Yan..." Bai Ziwan held Su Yan's hand and said sincerely, "Su Yan, thank you."

Su Yan smiled slightly and said, "This is what Su Yan should do. Without further ado, I'll contact them and arrange everything."

After Su Yan left, Bai Ziwan yelled into the yard, and when Caiyi trotted over, she told her to see if Xiao Ze had woken up, while carrying the food to the house, thinking in her heart that she had to think of something later Just go out for a while.

"Ah Wan..."

Seeing the seriousness in Yuan Hongyi's expression, Bai Ziwan put the food on the table, pretending to be relaxed, "What's wrong?"

"Look at this first."
