Chapter 367 Investigation

I thought to myself that Su Zhi was indeed not an ordinary person, but he did not return to Chenxianglou, because he knew that if he went back this time, he would definitely not be able to get out, so he would be unable to leave him again. When he left, Master Yan Xun'er said to himself.

"I believe that you can handle it yourself."

After saying this, the master disappeared and left the capital.

Su Zhi brought the pastries that the maid had just hot, then went upstairs and stood at the door of Yan Xun'er's room. Just as he was about to knock on the door, he suddenly watched Yan Xun'er open the door of the room and asked him as Su Zhi, who was standing at the door of the room.

Yan Xun'er looked at Su Zhi still not speaking and asked Su Zhi again, who was standing in front of her.

"Why are you standing here and not coming in?"

Su Zhi looked at Yan Xun'er standing at the door and spoke. Su Zhi walked in without replying. Yan Xun'er looked at Su Zhi who had been silent and realized that Su Zhi had just arrived at the room, so he did not come in.

Yan Xun'er thought of this and didn't say anything. She followed Su Zhi and walked in. Su Zhi put a plate of pastries in her hand on the table, then found a chair and sat next to her.

Yan Xun'er looked at the plate of pastries and turned around and asked Su Zhi.

"Why is it so late?"

Yan Xun'er was afraid that Su Zhi would leave again, but as soon as she spoke, Yan Xun'er felt that she was talking about something. When she was about to apologize to Su Zhi, she heard Su Zhi speak.

"When I went down, I got the pastries, and thought that you couldn't eat cold these days, so I let the maid in the kitchen heat up the past few days, so I wasted my time."

Yan Xun'er thought she would not answer her again, but she didn't expect that after Yan Xun'er asked, Su Zhi still answered her.

Yan Xun'er began to pick up the pastries on the plate and ate them. Yan Xun'er looked at Su Zhi while eating, and now Yan Xun'er looked happy on her face.

Although Su Zhi looked at Yan Xun'er at this time, he was thinking in his heart whether the secret guard who had just talked to him had returned to Gui Su Palace.

Su Zhi, who was still thinking, suddenly saw a hand appearing in front of him and sent a piece of pastry into his mouth. Su Zhi was a little stunned, but he still opened his mouth to eat the pastry.

"Is it tasty?"

Yan Xun'er thought Su Zhi would not eat it, but after seeing Su Zhi eat it, she asked Su Zhi.

Because Su Zhi once told him that he didn't like sweets, but Yan Xun'er still wanted to try it out, whether he would eat it. So after Yan Xun'er saw Su Zhi eating it, she looked at Su Zhi sitting in front of her with a happy look on her face and asked.

Su Zhi tasted the food in his mouth and frowned slightly, but he did not let Yan Xun'er in front of him see it. When Yan Xun'er raised her head again, Su Zhi kept silent. Yan Xun'er thought she had done something wrong, but when Yan Xun'er was about to bow her head, she suddenly heard Su Zhi say it.

"Well, you're all delicious."

Yan Xun'er originally thought Su Zhi would say something, but suddenly heard what Su Zhi said, Yan Xun'er lowered her head with a blushing face and continued to slowly eat the pastry in her mouth.

Su Zhi looked at Yan Xun'er with a blushing face in front of him, and knew in his heart that Yan Xun'er was no longer angry.

This is the Ghost Palace.

Xiao Tong was sorting out some information about vendors he had worked with in the room. Suddenly, he heard a loud noise outside the room and was very alert.

Xiao Tong, who heard the sound, hurriedly got up and went outside the room to take a look. The man who had just walked in was a little confused.

Xiao Tong thought for a while, this was not the secret guard beside Su Zhi. The secret guard also saw Xiao Tong, hurried to him, lying in his ear and saying something.

"What?"

Xiao Tong was a little confused when he looked at the secret guard who had just talked to him. At this time, Xiao Tong thought about the thing Tangtang had told him. Xiao Tong thought about it carefully and then realized that something was wrong.

"Then have you heard anything else just now?"

After Xiao Tong finished speaking, he looked at the secret guard standing in front of him. He did not think about Tangtang, but remembered the sound he had just heard. He thought about asking the secret guard who had just come in and what had just happened to him.

The secret guard listened to Xiao Tong's inquiry and began to recall some things he had just come in, but he really didn't hear or see anything he saw when he came in.

Thinking of this, the secret guard shook his head at Xiao Tong who was standing in front of him and said that he had indeed seen nothing or heard of anything.

"You go down first. If you tell Su Zhi when you see Su Zhi, I will protect Tangtang."

After hearing what Xiao Tong said, the secret guard left Xiao Tong's eyes in a blink of an eye.

Xiao Tong looked at the back of the dark guard who left in an instant, walked into the room and watched the things on his table suddenly disappear. Xiao Tong realized that he had heard that there was indeed someone he had just heard.

Xiao Tong did not make a statement, but sat back in front of the desk and looked at the lost things just now, just some transactions between some merchants and Gui Su Palace.

"Who will it be?"

Xiao Tong looked puzzled, thinking that he had just left, and it was not half an hour before that person had fled behind him and the secret guard. Suddenly, Xiao Tong looked at the window beside Xiao Tong's bed that had been opened, the wind outside blew in, and the curtains on the window were rustling.

Xiao Tong frowned slightly, and suddenly, as if he had thought of something, stood up, walked to the window, and looked outside the window as if he wanted to find something.

After Xiao Tong looked outside the window, he suddenly seemed to see something and looked at Xiao Tong's gaze and could see two footprints outside the window.

Seeing this, Xiao Tong turned around and left his room again, and came to the backyard where the window was. Seeing that the footprints were walking to the door, it suddenly disappeared. Xiao Tong suddenly thought of something and walked into the butler's room and asked the butler to gather all the maids and guards in Guishu Palace.

The butler standing in the yard looked at Xiao Tong standing in front of him with an anxious look on his face, and was confused and confused. Why did Xiao Tong summon everyone to gather.

But the maid and guards on the side began to discuss, not knowing what they were going to do this sudden gathering.

Suddenly, there were hundreds of people in the yard and they began to chatter. When Xiao Tong heard the noise, he suddenly frowned. This scared the housekeeper so much that he hurriedly spoke to the maid and the guard standing in the yard.

"Silence and don't make a noise."

After the butler finished speaking, he smiled and looked at Xiao Tong standing beside him with a very attentive smile, waiting for Xiao Tong's instructions.

"Have you ever left your post today?"

Finally, after the butler finished saying this, the crowd of people in the yard became quiet, and hundreds of people in the yard were quietly waiting for Xiao Tong's orders.

After Xiao Tong finished speaking, he watched the group of maids and guards standing in front of him start to discuss with each other. Xiao Tong stood there and frowned again, with an unhappy expression on his face.

After watching it, everyone felt that something bad must have happened, but no one still spoke.

Finally, Xiao Tong decided to investigate one by one, and asked the housekeeper to help him, so he started to check between the maids of No. 100 and the guards who were not in Guishu Palace today.

After a while of discussion and grouping, Xiao Tong walked towards Nanyuan. The butler was still in the place just now. The butler was checking the guards, and Xiao Tong was checking the maids.

Because when Xiao Tong looked at the footprints, he found that they were a woman's footprints. Since he had not left Guishu Palace, he must have been the maid in the palace. However, if he did not investigate them together, it would cause suspicion. So he handed over those unimportant things to the housekeeper of Guishu Palace to check.

"Everyone comes in line, don't worry if you come."

There was already a start to see the butler saying to the group of big men in front of him.

Nanyuan.

Xiao Tong looked at the group of maids in front of him, and suddenly saw a maid in the middle trying to leave, so he hurriedly got up and came to the maid.

Then when he saw the maid looking panicked, he felt something was wrong. He asked that one to come to him, so he decided to check the maid first.

"Master, I am not trying to be lazy on purpose."

When Xiao Tong asked her to tell her about her process of the day today, the maid standing in front of Xiao Tong was so scared that she knelt in front of Xiao Tong and said to Xiao Tong crying.

"Um?"

When Xiao Tong heard what the maid in front of him said, he suddenly frowned and looked at the maid in front of him with a puzzled look on what the maid in front of him said about her lazy today.

"Then go and hit 50 big boards, and then drive out of Gui Su Palace."

When the maid kneeling there heard Xiao Tong say this, her body trembled unconsciously and started crying loudly again.

I hope Xiao Tong can forgive him, but Xiao Tong, who was standing in front of the maid, didn't say a word, and looked at the two guards walking in the distance and pulled the maid away.

After the maid was pulled out of the gate of Guisu Palace after hitting the 50th board, Xiao Tong suddenly remembered something and stood up from the chair. Suddenly Xiao Tong thought about whether this was also a concealment.

"Slowly, put that woman down."

Xiao Tong looked at the two guards in front of him who were about to pull out the maid and hurriedly stopped the guards, and asked the two guards to stop. Xiao Tong hurriedly walked there and looked at the maid who had fainted.

"Yes, then I'll go down first."

The two guards carried the maid in front of Xiao Tong and saw the master in front of him wave his hand. They said to the master and went down.

“…”
