Not long after Princess Changle left, Yuechan hurriedly walked into the hall.
"Meet the Queen!"
Queen Changsun put down her tea cup and said:
"Can I ask clearly?"
"Let me ask you clearly. Duke Qi went to the Qin Mansion today to ask Master Miaoying to come to the mansion to treat Young Master Changsun!"
Queen Changsun raised her eyebrows when she heard this and said eagerly:
"Huh? Not to mention yesterday, is Chong'er's cold not a serious problem? How is Chong'er's condition now? Has it improved?"
"Master Changsun, he is all right now, and Master Miaoying will stay at the Duke of Qi's residence tonight."
"The Duke of Qi specially asked this servant to tell the Queen, so that you don't have to worry. When the eldest grandson is well in a few days, he will bring the eldest grandson to pay you respects."
Queen Changsun nodded slightly when she heard this and murmured:
"That's good, that's good."
In his heart, he was thinking that when Changsun Wuji and Changsun rushed over, he must warn them that they must not cause trouble to Qin Ming again in the future!
Not only can’t he be found, but he has to have a good relationship with him in the future!
After all, if Qin Ming hadn't left Daochang Sun in Lantian, neither he nor Chong'er would have received treatment from Daochang Sun today.
Qin Ming is very kind to the Changsun family!
.......
At the end of the Youshi period, Chongrenfang was the residence of the Duke of Qi.
After dinner, Changsun Wuji visited Changsun Chong and then returned to the study, handling official duties and waiting for news.
I don't know how long it took, but a dark shadow entered the study quietly.
The black shadow is the dead soldier commander Zhao Gou who was sent out by Changsun Wuji yesterday to arrest people.
Like yesterday, Zhao Gou was still wearing a black robe. After entering the room, Zhao Gou strode to the desk, knelt down on one knee and said:
"The subordinate pays homage to the master."
Changsun Wuji put down the brush in his hand and raised his eyelids, his eyes were cold and shining.
"Have everyone been caught?"
Zhao Gou lowered his head when he heard this.
"My subordinates are not doing their job well. Please punish me, Master!"
Changsun Wuji was stunned for a moment, and then said coldly:
"You mean, there are more than a hundred of you and you haven't even caught two ordinary people?"
Zhao Gou knelt on his knees and pounded the ground with his head.
"This subordinate deserves to die! Master, please punish me!"
Changsun Wuji was furious when he heard this. He never thought that these dead soldiers he raised really didn't even catch two ordinary people.
"Trash, a bunch of trash!"
After speaking, Changsun Wuji picked up the inkstone on the table and threw it at Zhao Gou who was kneeling on the ground.
The inkstone fell from top to bottom and hit Zhao Gou in an instant. Zhao Gou withstood the blow and just grunted.
Changsun Wuji was puzzled when he saw this, pointed at Zhao Gou and said:
"I'll leave the study soon and go to the execution room to get fifty salt water whips!"
Zhao Gou bowed his head after hearing this.
"Thank you master for not killing me!"
Changsun Wuji nodded slightly, thought for a while, and asked:
"Any clues now?"
"My subordinates sent people to Liuye Lane, Pingkangfang, to check yesterday. Wu Dazhuang and his wife are not in the house. The house furnishings and clothes are still there."
"Looking at this situation, the two of them either knew that they had offended our Changsun Mansion and ran away secretly, or they went out to visit friends. Maybe they will come back one day!"
"This morning, my subordinates made a special trip to all the gates of Chang'an City, and also read all the entry and exit records of the city gates. I found that Wu Dazhuang and his wife took a carriage yesterday and left the Jinguang Gate towards Longyou Road."
"This morning, my subordinates had sent people to chase them in different directions. Before a cup of tea, they sent back news that the two people seemed to have disappeared. No one had seen them in all the tea shops, inns, and villages on the road. They are a couple."
Changsun Wuji frowned when he heard this. He knew very well the abilities of the dead soldiers in his house. After all, the dead soldiers in his house were all carefully selected by him from the army.
There are many people who have served as scouts in the army. They are top-notch experts in terms of tracking and investigation abilities.
As for two ordinary people riding in a carriage, it is logically impossible to escape their pursuit.
If this is the case, then the problem is probably that the entry and exit registers of each city gate are in it.
If that was really the case, it would be easy. As long as he found out who had changed the book, he would be able to follow the clues and find out the person who was really behind the scenes to harm Chong'er.
Thinking of this, Changsun Wuji took out a token from his arms, threw it to Zhao Gou and said:
"Take this token and go to the major city gates tomorrow, find people in our house, and ask them to check secretly to see if anyone has modified yesterday's entry and exit records. In addition, let them Keep an eye on them, maybe like you said, they might be out visiting friends."
"If you really find out that someone has modified the records at the city gate, you must report it to me as soon as possible. There is no need to rush to arrest the person, just send someone to keep an eye on that person first."
Zhao Gou took the token, put it in his arms, cupped his fists and said:
"My subordinate understands."
"By the way, Chong'er has woken up. According to his description, there were two people who were with Wu Dazhuang yesterday. They may be his two cousins. One of them is called Youxia'er Little Tornado!"
"Following this clue, you capture all the rangers of Little Whirlwind in Chang'an City and take them to Zhuangzi outside Chang'an City."
Zhao Gou bowed and agreed.
After Changsun Wuji finished explaining the matter, he waved his hand to indicate that Zhao Gou could retreat.
In the past, Zhao Gou would have retreated, but today was an exception.
"What? Is there anything else?"
Zhao Gou looked embarrassed.
Changsun Wuji patted the table impatiently and shouted:
"If you have something to say, just say it."
Zhao Gou hesitated for a moment, then said to Changsun Wuji:
"Master, I have just received news. Today, many people in Wannian County are spreading rumors that the young master is taking advantage of his family to force girls into prostitution..."
Changsun Wuji felt his head hit, as if it was about to be exploded, and he felt like the world was spinning.
He stretched out his hand to hold the edge of the table and said through gritted teeth:
"Who is it? Who is spreading these rumors in Chang'an City? Maliciously slandering my son? I want to cut him into pieces!"
Zhao Gou felt miserable! He also wanted to know who was spreading these rumors.
But now almost half of the teahouses, wine shops, Qinlou, and Chuguan in Wannian County are discussing this matter. Even if he wants to investigate, he is powerless!
I have no idea how these rumors spread!
"This subordinate is incompetent, please punish me, master!"
Changsun Wuji pointed at Zhao Gou with trembling fingers and said:
"Then what are you doing standing there in a daze? Why don't you send someone to investigate right away!"
"promise."
When Zhao Gou came out of the study, Changsun Wuji could no longer suppress the anger and aggrievedness in his heart!
He picked up the teacup on the table and threw it to the ground, followed by the teapot. Soon the floor of the study was covered with broken porcelain.
After venting his anger, Changsun Wuji sat on the chair, looked at the candlelight on the table and fell into deep thought!
