    The moonlight is shining on the small pond in the pavilion, and the koi fish are spinning leisurely in the water, which is quiet and peaceful.

    "As far as my subordinates know, Xiao Yunhe has interrogated Lu Quan twice in private, and even his hometown sent people to investigate." Gao Yuan stood aside and reported carefully, "He took charge of this case in the first place.  Could those who came down be heading towards Lu Quan?"

    Shen Yi turned sideways to face the pool, put his hand on the railing, and knocked slowly: "Lu Quan could have been sentenced to death, but during the morning court, he deliberately sacrificed the emperor to heaven, offered amnesty to the world, and shortened the execution time.  The delay to the autumn period shows that Lu Quan is still useful to him at the moment."

    Gao Yuan asked: "Do I need my subordinates to investigate more carefully?"

    Shen Yi shook his head thoughtfully: "This matter is not urgent. I think I may know the reason."

    While speaking, a soft voice came from the side.

    ¡°Brother-in-law, please leave quickly, we really can¡¯t go in here.¡±

    "But that thief"

    Gao Yuan immediately shouted vigilantly: "Who is it?"

    She felt that the voice was vaguely familiar. Before Shen Yi could think about it, Gao Yuan had already raised his sword and saluted, "Your Majesty, please wait a moment. I will go check it out."

    ¡°Come back¡ª¡± He raised his hand to stop, hesitating for a moment, ¡°You remove the people nearby, I have my own sense of discretion.¡±

    Wen Mingzheng came down from the wall, shaking his head and sighing.

    "He is really cunning and courageous, and he actually ran inside I can guarantee that he must be in the palace."

    Yan Shuyue supported him worriedly, "Why don't you forget it? This is the prince's mansion after all. If you break in without permission, you might lose your head."

    Shuci looked around and found that Prince Su's house was an inaccessible area with a radius of 20 feet. The chickens and dogs did not crow, and it also had an air of chasing away guests.

    "Brother-in-law, you might as well tell the palace guards about this and let them arrest him."

    "This won't work." Wen Ming waved his hand in embarrassment, "My brothers and I all came here for this thief. If the credit falls on others, I can't handle it."

    "But¡­¡­"

    "There's someone!" Shu Ci just started talking when Wen Ming quickly pulled her and Yan Shuyue behind them.

    "who?!"

    He faced the corner ahead and asked in a deep voice, "Come out! Otherwise, don't blame me for being rude!"

    The branches on both sides of the road are shadowy.

    The air was quiet for a moment. Behind the wall illuminated by the moonlight, someone slowly appeared. The cold night made the mask on his face particularly cold, with an inhuman indifference, but this indifference  It softened slightly because of the slight curvature of the corners of his lips.

    Shu Ci was stunned for the first time, and then came to her senses for the first time. She walked out from behind Wen Ming and ran to him.

    "Why are you here?" She lowered her voice, and then seemed to know something, "Are you so brave that you even dare to steal from the palace?"

    Shen Yi glanced at her and didn't bother to talk to her at all.  This is my brother-in-law. Be careful what you say, or he will catch you.  "

    Because we were far away, we couldn¡¯t hear clearly what was being discussed.

    "I'm telling you" Shuci quietly pulled on his sleeve, "Over there, Ziyu has met Shen Yi before, so he is quite calm, while Wen Ming looks at the two of them suspiciously.

    "Aci, do you know him?"

    Shu Ci turned around and covered Shen Yi behind without leaving a trace: "He is my friend who happened to be passing by."

    "Your friend?" Wen Ming thought about him for a while, obviously skeptical, "Here and now, happened to pass by? What does he do? Where does he live? How old is he?" Out of the instinct of catching the fast.  , he asked a lot of questions unconsciously.

    Shen Yi was naturally not in the mood to answer him. He only looked down at the person in front of him, then raised his head and asked coldly: "This is Prince Su's Mansion. Who are you, dare to come here to make trouble?"

    Unexpectedly, the opponent was so powerful. Wen Ming took out the card and showed it to him immediately.

    "You see clearly, the government handles the case in a legitimate manner."

    Seeing that there was the word "capture" on it, Shen Yi sneered disdainfully, stretched out his index finger and tapped the bottom of his feet, "This room is not allowed to be entered within a radius of five miles. As a government official, don't you know?"

    "This" Recalling that Prince Su's Mansion seemed to have this rule, Wen Ming was speechless for a moment.

    Shu Ci immediately pressed Shen Yi's shoulders and whispered: "Okay, why are you arguing with him? You are a thief and he is a soldier. Are you not afraid of going to jail?"

    "I'm not a thief, and he's not a soldier either." He said patientlyhands, and still fearful of himself.

    ¡°What exactly does such a person want to do when he comes to his house?

    "The palace is heavily guarded. He definitely doesn't dare to attack easily. He will definitely find an opportunity to relax his guard. If you wait like this, how many years and months will it take for you to catch him without the help of the prince? You are overestimating your own capabilities."

    Shen Yi's words were contemptuous and disdainful. Fortunately, Wen Ming always had a good temper and didn't care about him. He lowered his head and thought about it carefully, and found it reasonable.

    "What Brother Wuming said is that if you want to catch this thief, it will be twice the result with half the effort if you have the help of the prince. And if you can perform meritorious service in front of him, you may be looked at differently."

    Shen Yi looked sideways expressionlessly.

    Yan Shuyue naturally had no objection to this and nodded obediently in agreement.

    "However, Prince Su has never seen anyone who is a close friend, whether he is right or wrong. I am of low status, so I am afraid I will not have a chance"

    Ziyu thought of something while holding the bun in her mouth: "My uncle has no chance, but my master does."

    Being reminded by her, Wen Ming patted his forehead as if he had realized something, "Exactly, exactly, how could I have forgotten it." Then he faced Shu Ci and the two of them, "I wonder, can you ask Uncle Yan for help?"

    "My father?" He was worried that Yan Ze couldn't speak, so he hesitated in Shu Ci. However, the Wen family had indeed helped them a lot before, so it would be too unkind to refuse directly.

    "He is not at home now. He went to the Governor's Mansion earlier to attend to business."

    "What a coincidence." Wen Ming lowered his head slightly disappointed.

    Seeing that he looked haggard, he thought about the words for a moment, and finally nodded, "Let's do this. I will go to deliver food to my father tomorrow, and tell him about this incident by the way. But whether it will work or not depends on the prince himself."

    Hearing this, Yan Shuyue went to hold her hand and said, "I'll go with you."

    "Thank you so much, I can't thank you enough." Wen Ming saluted Shuci, then looked at Yan Shuyue and said softly, "Thank you very much."

    "You're welcome." She lowered her head in confusion, her face slightly red, and her voice was so low that it was almost inaudible, "It should be"

    Seeing that the two people were showing off again, Shuci moved to the side without leaving a trace. At this moment, a sneer that was neither salty nor cold suddenly came from his ears.

    Shen Yi crossed his arms and said with obvious ridicule: "I want to be promoted and I want to catch thieves, and I ask a woman for help. It's ridiculous."

    Unexpectedly, he would speak suddenly. Wen Ming was stunned for a moment: "I, I did this just to be with her."

    "If you want to marry her, you should rely on your true abilities. What's the use of deceiving yourself?" He was even more contemptuous.

    "I" Wen Ming was speechless.

    Seeing this, Shu Ci hurriedly pulled Shen Yi aside and said, "Say less!"

    He snorted indifferently and turned his head away.

    Shu Ci smiled sheepishly at Wen Ming: "That's just the way he is. Brother-in-law, don't take it to heart."

    The atmosphere was a little stiff for a while, and Wen Ming said awkwardly: "Then I will go with you tomorrow."

    "It doesn't matter." Shuci waved his hand helplessly, "It's useless if you go, they won't let you in at all."

    ""

    The matter is settled like this.

    On the way home, Yan Shuyue followed Ziyu in front, chatting with each other, while Shuci was at the end with Shen Yi, some distance apart.

    She held up the lamp and looked at her feet absentmindedly, "I'm very grateful that you spoke for me just now." Shu Ci looked at him, "But I still don't want to go against my brother-in-law. Don't look at his good temper. When it comes to official business, he doesn't recognize his relatives.  He has some prejudices against Jianghu people, and if he thinks you are an accomplice, it will be difficult to take you back to the Yamen for torture."

    "He doesn't have that ability." Shen Yi put his hands behind his back and walked steadily, "Besides, I'm just telling the truth."

    Shu Ci looked at him: "Will you die if I accept my love?"

    He raised his eyebrows: "I didn't say I wouldn't accept your favor."

    Shen Yi held up the lamp in her hand: "Are you really going to find Yan Ze tomorrow?"

    Shu Ci hummed, "Dad was able to live in peace last time in prison, thanks to the Wen family. This debt of gratitude must be repaid."

    He shook his head with a half-smile: "Your family is really this year"

    The meaning of the second half of the sentence was unclear. Shuci stopped and was about to ask, but Shen Yi walked very fast, so she had to trot to keep up.
