Xie Yao was slightly startled when she heard this, and then she thought, "How did you know that Zhixian was injured?"
"It was spread all over the capital. My men learned the news and immediately passed it back." Xie Wenwu knew that Liang Zhixian was Xie Yao's friend. When he saw Liang Zhixian being injured, it was understandable to help him.
But when he saw that Xie Yao's expression was not right, he also lowered his eyes and asked, "Is there anything wrong with this matter?"
Xie Yao did not answer, but asked again, "Besides the rumor that Zhixian was injured and I saved her, are there any other rumors?"
"Not yet." Xie Wenwu replied.
Xie Yao nodded, a flash of coldness flashed across his eyes.
From the time she loaded Liang Zhixian into the carriage and sent her back to the Taiwei Mansion, less than half an hour had passed at most. How could the news that she had treated Liang Zhixian spread quickly and reach Xie Wenwu's ears?
This speed, unless someone is deliberately walking behind the scenes, cannot be achieved by relying solely on ordinary people's communication.
Why should her rescue of Liang Zhixian be spread?
What is the purpose?
Seeing that Xie Yao's expression was a little downcast, Xie Wenwu realized something and comforted him: "Sister, don't worry, this matter is left to me. I'm going to have someone investigate this matter now!"
If someone wants to harm Xie Yao, he will not let it go!
Xie Yao thought for a moment and shook her head towards Xie Wenwu, "Don't rush now, just wait and see what happens. If someone really wants to harm me, even if you can find out who the other person is, you can't control the spread of rumors. What's more,
, what the emperor wants to see most right now is clues about you, you must put safety first."
"Don't worry about the rumors, I will investigate them myself."
"By the way, how is the situation of the leaker? I have been waiting for your news." Xie Yao kept thinking about the leaker on the way here. This time she came to change Wu Peiya's dressing because Xie Wenwu agreed to go to the city.
The source of the leak was contacted, but there has been no news.
When Xie Wenwu saw Xie Yao mentioning the leaker, his expression suddenly felt awkward.
"Did something happen in an accident?" Xie Yao's eyes deepened upon seeing this.
The leaker's affairs are much more important than the rumors.
Xie Wenwu immediately shook his head, "No! There was no accident! The person has been picked up by my people. I was just delayed by something, and I haven't had time to leave the city for interrogation."
Xie Yao raised her eyebrows and glanced at Xie Wenwu.
Something seems wrong with Xie Wenwu.
Just as she was about to ask, Wu Peiya appeared in the direction behind Xie Wenwu. When she saw Xie Yao, she immediately ran over, "Princess, you are here!"
"Let me take a look at the recovery of your wound." Xie Yao turned her eyes to Wu Peiya.
"You guys talk first, I still have things to deal with, so let's take a step first." After Xie Wenwu finished speaking, he solemnly promised Xie Yao, "Sister, I will leave the city tonight, and there will be news tomorrow morning at the latest."
Xie Yao glanced at Xie Wenwu who looked solemn, paused slightly, and then nodded.
Xie Wenwu smiled, turned and left.
Xie Yao's eyes stayed on Xie Wenwu's back. When Xie Wenwu's figure disappeared, he looked back.
"Peiya, let's go to your yard to check the healing of your wounds."
Wu Peiya nodded happily, "Okay."
On the other side, after Xie Wenwu walked around the corner, he called the people around him over with a heavy expression.
"Major General." A follower appeared.
"Have you found the person?" Xie Wenwu's voice was low.
"Preliminary confirmation is that he escaped into an abandoned temple outside the city. His subordinates have asked people to keep a close eye on the surrounding area. Not even a mouse can escape!" the entourage reported in detail.
"He never wanted to enter the city?" Xie Wenwu was a little confused.
This leaker has a very tough mouth. He asked his subordinates to use many methods, but the leaker did not reveal the name of the person behind it!
However, he must get the clue as soon as possible!
If it's too late, the person behind the scenes may notice it!
In desperation, he came up with the idea of luring the snake out of its hole, wanting to let the leaker go first and lure out the person behind it.
Unexpectedly, the leaker was very good at hiding and almost lost him as soon as he let go.
Fortunately, the person has been found!
"He has been wandering around outside the city, away from the capital."
Xie Wenwu frowned, "Let people keep an eye on him! I will leave the city at night. If there are no clues by then, I will interrogate him personally!"
"yes!"
Xie Wenwu's eyes were firm and cold.
There is absolutely no room for any mistakes in the affairs of the leaker!
On the other side, Xie Yao went to Wu Peiya's yard, checked the condition of Wu Peiya's wound, and changed Wu Peiya's medicine.
"You are recovering well. You just need to continue to maintain it. It can take as long as a month or as little as half a month, and your wound will be completely healed without leaving any scars." Xie Yao said with a smile.
"Great! Thank you Princess!" Although Wu Peiya already knew that Princess could heal her scars, she was still very happy to hear the news.
"When the injury on your face heals, I will come again to disguise you and take you back to Prince Han's Mansion." Xie Yao saw Wu Peiya happy and she was also very happy.
Sure enough, no woman of any kind would be willing to accept scars on her face! What’s more, Wu Peiya’s scars are very long and run through her left and right cheeks.
When Wu Peiya heard this, the joy on her face subsided and she became a little serious instead, "Princess, I want to disguise myself today and go back to Prince Han's Mansion with you."
"No." Xie Yao refused without thinking, "I will definitely take you back to the palace, but there is no need to rush. Disguising will make your face less breathable, which will affect the healing speed of the wound."
"What's more, when you arrive at the palace, you will be in disguise almost all day long, and your wounds will be even more difficult to recover from."
"It doesn't matter!" Wu Peiya shook her head firmly, "It doesn't matter if the wound heals earlier or later, it doesn't matter if it even leaves a little scar, as long as I can serve the princess!"
"I know that Ziqing is still in Fuyunxuan, so it is not convenient for her to serve the princess personally. If I change my appearance, I won't have these scruples. When the princess comes back, she needs someone close to her to handle things, otherwise it will be very inconvenient."
Xie Yao smiled, knowing that Wu Peiya was eager to help her, "I am not Xie Yao now, and I don't have so many things to do. It is enough to have a few maids arranged by the prince. And they are all carefully selected by the prince.
There will be no inconvenience when you come out. Just rest and recover and wait for me to pick you up."
After saying that, she turned her face serious. Seeing that Wu Peiya wanted to speak again, she deliberately made an expression that left no room for doubt, "Don't mention this matter again."
Seeing this, Wu Peiya could only give up.
Xie Yao sat for a while and then left.
When she returned to Prince Han's Mansion and got off the carriage, she glanced at the distance behind the carriage and said to a man whose face was covered tightly: "Why don't you come here quickly?"
