Concubine Agent: My lord, stop pretending

Chapter 178 Excessive

Su Yan smiled slightly, did not respond, and automatically ignored the strange emotions in Chu Qingzhou's words.

Ye Huan asked: "Then what did the fourth sister-in-law find out?"

Su Yan nodded slightly, and handed over the few pieces of paper she brought: "These are what the witnesses said, and I recorded them all." After a pause, she continued, "Everyone, please take a look."

Ye Huan took the paper, read it roughly, then handed it to Chu Qingzhou, and passed it to read one by one.

Su Yan's expression remained unchanged, but his heart was calm.Master Yun prepared these things for her. She watched them several times last night just to get familiar with them. Fortunately, she can perform this play well today.

After Yao Jing finished reading, he handed both hands to Su Yan, with a slightly respectful and apprehensive expression, as if a little scared.

Su Yan glanced at the governor of Yuzhou, took the paper, and handed it to Ye Jing, with a clear intention.

Ye Huan's face was expressionless, but the deep sadness in his eyes passed silently across his heart, leaving a trace that couldn't be wiped away.

Chu Qingzhou and Yao Jing were stunned for a moment, and they had a little more respect for Princess Jing in their hearts. This woman regards King Jing as an ordinary person, and she should have a lot of respect. No wonder King Jing is so popular. favorite.

A smile appeared in Ye Jing's eyes, she carefully read the testimonies, then picked up the testimonial presented by Yao Jing before and read it, and said slowly: "The two are different."

Except for Ye Huan, everyone was a little surprised.The rumored King Jing was almost illiterate, but today it seems that there is a big difference.

Ye Huan nodded, and said, "That's right, although the two testimonies have discrepancies, they cannot be used as evidence."

"That's why we need to bring these people back for interrogation." Su Yan continued, looking at Chu Qingzhou, "Master Chu, you are an imperial envoy personally appointed by His Majesty, and you are mainly assisting in this case, so please trouble Master Chu. "

Chu Qingzhou got up and bowed slightly to Su Yan: "The princess is serious, this is the truth's business." After saying that, he looked at Yao Jing, "Master Yao, I will leave this matter to you. The prime minister's guards will go with you, so that we can assist you a little bit."

"Yes, the next official takes orders." Yao Jing cupped his hands respectfully, he knew very well that Chu Qingzhou was afraid that he would do something secretly.

After Yao Jing left, Su Yu looked at Chu Qingzhou with a little more profound exploration, thinking that someone who is young at a young age really has something extraordinary, maybe it's because of his capable performance, which is only one out of ten. Two.

Chu Qingzhou noticed the searching gaze, and suddenly went up to him, his smile changed from light to deep, and he said solemnly: "Originally, His Majesty's will is that King Jing will be the presiding judge for this trip, and Qingzhou is only assisting, although King Jing is simple, But the concubine is wise and wise, which makes Qing Zhou very admired, and Qing Zhou is willing to follow the lead of the concubine!"

Su Yu was taken aback, stood up quickly, and declined, "No, I'm just expressing my thoughts, Master Chu, don't make fun of me."

"Princess is modest." Chu Qingzhou smiled gracefully, with a serious expression, not joking at all, "Qingzhou's words came from the bottom of my heart, before the concubine, don't refuse."

Ye Huan also said at this time: "Yes, fourth sister-in-law, you have arrived in Yuzhou ahead of time, and you have made unannounced visits for so many days, you must have already made a plan, so let you lead us to investigate the Gongjin case in Yuzhou."

Seeing this situation, Su Yan couldn't refuse anymore, so he smiled and said: "Everyone will work together, and we will always be able to find out."

"Yes, work together!" Ye Jing suddenly said and nodded heavily.

Chu Qingzhou smiled without saying a word, and returned to his seat.

Ye Huan nodded gently, and gave Su Yan a stable look.

Ye Lingxue didn't say a word, and she didn't have a smile on her face at all, which didn't match the lively and cheerful before.She looked at Su Yu talking about the case with Fifth Brother and Chu Qingzhou with a smile. The calmness and competence were beyond her reach, and she even clearly saw the amazement and admiration in their eyes.

Who is Chu Qingzhou?The young prime minister is arrogant and arrogant, who is he pretending to be?But today, she has seen it, and he can bend over and admire a person.

In fact, when she went to Yuzhou this time, her father gave her an explanation, that is, she wanted her to develop a relationship with Chu Qingzhou.Although she was unwilling in her heart, her sense of superiority since she was a child made her feel challenged.

When she arrived in Yuzhou, she paid special attention to Chu Qingzhou's attitude towards her. Except for the respect she should have, she couldn't feel any affection.But at this moment, she clearly felt his special eyes on Feng Yinyin.

Who is Feng Yinyin?A flirtatious, fickle woman!Seduced Brother Hua first, and now flirting with Fifth Brother and Chu Qingzhou, where should Fourth Brother be?
The more she thought about it, the angrier she became, Ye Lingxue was holding the teacup and accidentally spilled the tea, which immediately attracted the attention of several people discussing the case.

"Lingxue, what's wrong with you? Why do you look sour when I look at you?" Su Yan asked with concern.

Ye Lingxue put down her teacup and forced a smile: "I'm a little tired after driving for a few days." She stood up and said, "Anyway, I can't help much, so I went to rest, you guys continue."

After finishing speaking, he stared at Su Yu, and left with the maid without waiting for everyone to speak.

Ye Huan hurriedly ordered: "Protect the princess and return to the city lord's mansion safely."

Someone in the dark responded and went away without a sound.

At this moment, there were only four people left in the hall. Su Yu looked at Ye Jing next to him and asked, "Are you going to rest? Are your injuries healed?"

Ye Jing smiled and nodded: "It's healed, scabs have formed, I won't go to rest, I want to stay with my lady!"

Su Yan looked slightly embarrassed, smiled, looked at Ye Huan and Chu Qingzhou, and continued: "This batch of tribute brocades belonged to the Yuzhou imperial merchant Shen's family, there may be some clues there."

"The Shen family has been an imperial merchant for generations, and has a century-old reputation. The current head of the family is the young master of the Shen family. The young master is gentle and cautious, with outstanding talents, but because of years of lingering illness, he is a little powerless for the Shen family's family business, so he has been training two younger brothers. Help him take care of the family business." Chu Qingzhou briefly explained the situation of the Shen family, "Since the second young master had an accident with Gong Jin, the third young master has taken on the main family property and business of the Shen family."

"How about this, let's go to Shen's house and see if there are any clues." Su Yan suggested.

Chu Qingzhou turned his gaze and said, "Princess suspects that the third young master may have done it?"

"It's just a guess, besides, this is also a motive, isn't it?" Su Yan explained with a smile.

Chu Qingzhou nodded slightly: "That's right, don't let go of any possibility, the princess is very thoughtful."

Ye Huan stood up and said, "In that case, let's go to Shen's residence."

Su Yu nodded, helped Ye Jing up, and the group left the government office and got into the carriage.

This time Ye Lingxue was not around, so the four of them rode in the same carriage.
