Zhao Xu knew that Chen Pi was afraid and said with a smile: "It's not for my grandmother. This matter is evil. You can't do nothing. Wait for the murderer to come again?"

Chenpi was very uneasy and said, "Didn't the official say it's okay for the time being? The villain has bribed a lot of people, and there will be news soon. Wait a little longer. Don't touch the empress..."

Zhao Xu's smile became more and more calm, and he smiled and comforted: "Don't worry, I'm here. You can discuss with Chu You later to see who it is. Let's do it tonight."

Chenpi was shocked and said, "Let's do it tonight?"

Zhao Xu nodded and said in a stern manner: "You must be quick! When those people react, they will kill people to silence them, our clues will be cut off."

Seeing that Zhao Xu was firm, Chen Pi had to grit her teeth and said, "Yes, the villain is going now!"

Zhao Xu nodded and suddenly said, "Call Zhao Ji in."

Tangerine responded and turned around and went out, her heart still feeling gloomy and panic.

That's the Empress Dowager. Who dares to offend the palace inside and outside the palace? If the assassination of the official family is really related to her, the consequences of the official family touching her like this will be unimaginable!

Chen Pi tried his best to leave the study room calmly. Seeing that Zhao Ji was still playing with the ball, he walked over and said with a smile: "Your Highness Eleventh Prince, the official family invites you to come over."

"Here you come!" Zhao Ji kicked the ball away, turned around calmly, and ran to Zhao Xu's study.

Chenpi looked at it and walked straight towards Chu You.

Chu You took a deep breath, nodded with him, and the two walked side by side towards the uninhabited corner.

Zhao Ji jumped over the threshold, entered Zhao Xu's study and opened his mouth and said, "Official family, what's the matter with me?"

Zhao Xu stood at the desk, looked at him and smiled, "Have you had fun recently?"

Zhao Ji looked up at the sky, as if he was recalling whether he had been having fun these days.

Suddenly, he saw Zhao Xu coming, turned around and ran away, and said anxiously: "Official family, I have not made any mistakes these days..."

Zhao Xu grabbed his collar, closed the door and said, "Who said that these days..."

Zhao Ji was about to run out with his teeth and claws, and his little face changed rapidly: "I've hit you the day before yesterday..."

Zhao Xu brought Zhao Ji back, and his expression paused, feeling that there was indeed a reason to hit someone, so he thought seriously: "I lost a painting in my study yesterday..."

Zhao Ji was pressed on the table, protecting his butt with both hands, and said, "It's not me, I didn't go into the study yesterday..."

Zhao Xu had already taken the soles of his shoes and paused his hands. It seemed that Zhao Ji had never come in yesterday. Soon, he slapped the soles of his shoes and said, "Did I let you go the day before yesterday?"

Zhao Ji stopped talking. That day, when he saw Zhao Xu ignore him, he put down his stool and ran away quietly.

Zhao Xu endured it for two days, and with the soles of his shoes, he beat the little bastard hard.

Zhao Ji was quite stubborn at first, but he screamed in a few seconds, his voice whispered in a gentle voice, as if he could hear it in the entire Funing Palace.

"Let you skip classes and not do your homework!"

"Let you only know how to play all day!"

"Let you make trouble for me every day and be disobedient!"

...

Half an hour later, Zhao Ji bulged his face and stood in Zhao Xu's study like a bun. He looked outside, and the guards were still in Cuju. This little bastard wanted to throw the bench down and rushed out several times.

That's it, he kept mumbling.

After Zhao Xu beat him, he felt particularly comfortable. Seeing that this little bastard remembered to eat but not beat him, he didn't have any sex. He was angry and comforted himself: "Don't be angry or not, he just beat him less, and work hard in the future...'

At the same time, Chen Pi and Chu You were taking Chu You in and out of the Cining Hall on the grounds of "finding books for the official family."

I don’t know how long it took, but I finally found the person they were leaving in a corridor.

Chu You held a box of books, looked at the front of the corner, and whispered to Chenpi: "It's him."

Chen Pi looked at the man, pursed her lips and said nothing.

"You can't do something well? Do you think the Empress is too forgiving? If you dare to have another next time, I will beat you to death!"

A clean middle-aged man was holding a thin stick and beating a palace maid in front of him.

The fifteen-and-six-year-old girl was trembling all over, her face was pale, and she shrank her head and didn't dare to say a word.

The middle-aged man looked at the girl's fearful appearance and a strange smile appeared on his face, saying, "Don't be afraid, I'm not such an inhumane person, I will teach you well..."

The girl couldn't resist retreating, her expression becoming more and more frightened.

The middle-aged man looked at her pitiful expression, and when he opened his eyes, he was about to move forward. He suddenly remembered again, looked around and said with a smile: "You know the consequences of coming to my room tonight."

The girl shook her head desperately, bit her lips tightly, and was so scared that she wanted to cry.

The middle-aged man couldn't help but rub his hands, stared at the girl for a while, and turned around and left with a strange smile on his face.

Chu You looked at the middle-aged man's back and frowned. Just as he was about to speak, Chenpi said, "Go back."

When Chu You saw that Chen Pi's face was tense, he was stunned and had to follow Chen Pi back to Funing Palace.

When Chenpi arrived at Funing Hall, she didn't even look at Zhao Ji, who was still holding the bench, and went straight to Zhao Xu's table. Her face changed and her eyes were full of anger.

Zhao Xu looked at him, turned to Zhao Ji with a calm expression, and said, "Go to play."

Zhao Ji was originally confused about the expression of Chenpi. He listened to Zhao Xu's words, threw away the bench pressing on his head and ran outside. It was so fast.

"Cuju!" Zhao Ji shouted.

Zhao Xu ignored the little bastard and looked at Chenpi and said, "What's wrong?"

Chen Pi's face twitched, and suddenly her eyes turned red, she knelt on the ground with a thud, and said almost crying: "The villain asks the official family to kill someone!"

Zhao Xu frowned slightly. Chenpi has always been timid, so why did he suddenly want to kill someone?

Zhao Xu looked at Chu You with his eyes.

Chu You said: "The villain doesn't know."

Chenpi knelt down, knocked her head to the ground, gritted her teeth, and said, "The villain has gone to see that person, it's Wang Deng."

"Wang Deng?"

Zhao Xu knew that this person was a servant of the Cining Palace and had been in the palace for more than 20 years.

"Why do you want to kill him?" Zhao Xu asked.

Chenpi had a ferocious expression and his eyes were resentful, and he said, "This person is a beast. Many palace maids were tortured to death by him. The villain had a good playmate and was killed by him a few years ago!"

Zhao Xu didn't know about this, and Chen Pi had never said it. If it were a few years ago, it would be really just a good playmate.

Zhao Xu thought for a while and said, "Since it's him, I'll catch him tonight."

Chen Pi looked at Zhao Xu, gritted her teeth, and said, "The villain wants to kill him!"

In the past, he didn't have the intention and courage. He was just a traitor at the ninth grade, and Wang Deng was a member of the fifth grade, and there was no way for Chenpi to do anything.

Now that Zhao Xu was about to touch Wang Deng, Chen Pi's hatred for Wang Deng suddenly boiled again, and she couldn't stand the murderous intent.

Zhao Xu said: "Look at what he knows first."

Seeing that Zhao Xu did not agree, Chen Pi stood up silently with resentment and pain on her face.

Zhao Xu did not look at Chenpi again, turned to Chu You and said, "At night, I will send the guards away. You and Chenpi will go and trick Wang Deng out with excuses, tie him to the woodshed behind me, and wait for me to go over and interrogate him in person. Try not to disturb anyone."

Chu You raised his hand and said, "Yes."
