Zhu Yao knew that her health wasn't good, and she was also worried about Li Shiyan, which made her feel uneasy. Her condition worsened, and now, she felt weak.
Now that there was no movement outside, it seemed that the matter had been resolved.
She was relieved, but she didn't forget to tell Cai 'er, "How about you ask Miss Ji? See if she needs any help. She's alone, and there's no one to talk to. I'm worried. "
Cai 'er comforted her, "Miss, don't worry. Miss Ji is so smart, she won't suffer a loss."
"No matter what, you still have to help her."
"Yes, yes, yes. This servant will go. You can rest in peace."
Cai 'er persuaded Zhu Yao again and again, and finally, Zhu Yao stopped thinking about Ji Yunshu. Then, Cai' er gave her a decocted medicine.
Zhu Yao's body gradually recovered.
Then, she slept for a while.
…
After solving the farce caused by Qiu Shu early in the morning, Ji Yunshu finally returned to her room, which was much more peaceful.
However, this matter made her head buzz.
It really hurt too much.
She rubbed the space between her eyebrows, and her complexion didn't look good. In the blink of an eye, she saw two small stones that had flown in from the window.
If it weren't for those two stones, she would have been slapped deaf by Qiu Shu. She picked up the two smooth stones and moved them in her palm a few times. Then, she walked to the window and pushed it open. A gust of cold wind blew in. Just like last night, there was nothing outside except for the lanterns and a big tree.
Subconsciously raised her head to look at the roof, as if she could see through the roof beams and tiles. Perhaps, at this moment, she could see … the person hiding on the roof.
She knew it was him!
Because that feeling was too familiar.
However, she was also very clear that he was hiding from her. So, no matter how hard she tried, she couldn't find someone who deliberately avoided her.
For a moment, she could only suppress the urgent longing in her heart.
'Jing Rong, after today's case is over, I will look for you!'
She thought, 'Luo Yang should have helped me with those two matters.'
…
Early in the morning, Zhao Quanzhi caused a ruckus in the courtyard, and no one was sleepy.
Although the matter had already been settled, everyone was still discussing it openly. They were just mocking Zhao Quanzhi a little.
Coming out naked in the middle of the night, this incident would definitely spread like wildfire in Yan Jing City.
At the thought of this, Zhao Quanzhi's head hurt!
But what he was more concerned about now was not this, but what Huang Dali had said — evidence was found in the rockery!
He felt an inexplicable sense of panic and apprehension!
A strong premonition surged into his chest!
It stirred up his internal organs and made them tremble.
He returned to the room and paced back and forth for a long time. Finally, he clenched his teeth, avoided the people in the courtyard, and quietly left the door.
He anxiously rushed to the Supreme Court's office to handle the case!
Along the way, his heart was in a knot.
When he was passing through the corridor, he bumped into someone because he was walking too fast.
"Ugh!"
The force of the collision was so great that he fell back a few steps before he could steady himself.
"Who's so blind?"
The moment he opened his mouth, he cursed!
"Who are you scolding!" Luo Yang retorted. He had also been hit quite hard.
Zhao Quanzhi frowned and revealed a look of disdain. Then, he patted his sleeves hard and glared at the person who had come.
Luo Yang rubbed his shoulder. Seeing the person in front of him who looked like a young master, he immediately felt no pain. Instead, he revealed a ruffian smile and puffed out his chest, saying, "Oh! So it's Young Master Zhao! "
"Hmm?" Zhao Quanzhi waved his sleeves and squinted at the person standing in front of him who looked like a "small fry in the marketplace." He tried hard to recall, then couldn't help but frown and said in a bad tone, "It's you who's blind!"
"Young Master Zhao knows me?"
"Of course I do. You were the one who wrongly accused Shi Yan of murder. You said you saw him come out from behind the rockery covered in blood."
"That's right, it's me!"
"Hmph! If it weren't for your blabbermouth, Shi Yan wouldn't have been considered a murderer and is still locked up. So, even if you turn into ashes, I would still recognize you. "
Pfft —
Luo Yang couldn't help but secretly laugh at this.
Recognize me even if I turn into ashes?
Then why didn't I recognize you last night! Luo Yang laughed a few times. He didn't want to expose him, nor did he want to cause trouble for himself. He cleared his throat and raised his head, saying, "I say, Young Master Zhao, don't be hostile to me! I really saw you that night. I can't lie in front of those adults, can I?
？ That's a great crime of lying. I can't bear it. "
Zhao Quanzhi's eyes were like needles as he snorted, "Despicable person!"
"I'm just a despicable person. I can't compare to you young masters, and I don't want to compare. At least I live openly and don't do immoral things! I don't do things like stealing. "Luo Yang seemed to be implying something.
Zhao Quanzhi's face stiffened and he waved his hand, "I can't be bothered to talk nonsense with you."
Just as he was about to leave …
But Luo Yang moved and blocked his way. He asked, "Young Master Zhao, where are you going? I have nothing to do right now. Why don't … we take a walk together? Who knows, we might even be able to be friends. Don't you think so? "
"Pfft! Who wants to be friends with you? Get lost! "
"Don't be like this!"
Zhao Quanzhi couldn't be bothered to talk anymore. He walked around him.
But Luo Yang continued to follow him shamelessly. He asked, "Are you going to see the Crown Prince?"
"…"
"But the place where the Crown Prince is imprisoned isn't in this direction!"
"…"
"That's right. I've always wanted to ask you something. Now that the witnesses and evidence all point to the Crown Prince killing someone, why do you always say that he was wronged? You still believe him. Could it be … you know that the murderer is someone else? "
Zhao Quanzhi's footsteps suddenly stopped!
Then, he glared fiercely at the follower beside him.
Luo Yang also met his gaze.
"What do you mean? What if I know who the murderer is? Am I still going to be anxious here? I would have caught the murderer long ago. "
"I thought you knew!"
"Go away! Don't block my way! " Luo Yang deliberately raised his voice and said, "I heard that the Supreme Court found evidence to prove the Crown Prince's innocence, but they refused to say anything. But I'm a cunning person. There's nothing I don't know. If you want to know, I can tell you.
If you want to know, I can tell you in advance. "
Zhao Quanzhi's expression changed greatly. He said in a harsh voice, "What did you say? You know what it is? "
"Of course!"
"What is it?"
"You seem very nervous."
"Tell me!" Zhao Quanzhi growled.
Luo Yang pretended to be timid. He opened his mouth and said, "I think … it's a pouch!"
"A … pouch?"
"A pouch embroidered with auspicious clouds. I snuck in and saw it with my own eyes." Luo Yang was extremely serious.
Zhao Quanzhi's eyes froze. His face showed that something was wrong. But he immediately covered up the strange expression that suddenly appeared.
Luo Yang smiled secretly. He lowered his voice and asked, "Young Master Zhao, what's wrong?"
"Nothing!" Zhao Quanzhi's eyes evaded and he casually said, "Don't follow me."
Then he turned around and went back to the courtyard!
Luo Yang looked at his back and smirked. He waved his hand and said, "Fine, I won't follow you!"
Of course I can't follow you now. Otherwise, how can I lure you out?
Zhao Quanzhi had only taken a few steps when he suddenly stopped. He turned his head and squinted his eyes to look him up and down. He said suspiciously, "Why do I feel that … you look a little familiar?"
Luo Yang didn't blush or panic. He said, "Don't try to get close to me! Anyone who sees me will say they're familiar with me. "
"Shameless!"
Zhao Quanzhi snorted and left.
Luo Yang rubbed his chin and said smugly, "You'll suffer later!"
He couldn't help but smirk. Zhao Quanzhi quickly returned to his room. He rummaged through the luggage he had brought to the villa and found a very small brocade box at the very bottom. There was a very beautiful button on the brocade box. There were many pear patterns carved on it.
He quickly opened the box. There was a small yellow pouch inside. The opening was tied. He didn't untie it. He took the pouch out and put it in his sleeve. Then, he went out again when no one was paying attention.
After a few turns, he arrived at a place where there was no one.
This place was very secluded. No one usually came here.
