"Master Wen looks familiar, have we met before somewhere?"
Wen Ziheng smiled gently, the corners of his snow-white robe fluttering, and the bamboo leaves on it looked lively.
"Of course I have. I have always admired the county lady's talent."
Wen Ziheng blinked his eyes and smiled meaningfully.
Lan Wangshu was heartbroken at this moment. It seemed that he really couldn't escape.
Her smile looked unnatural, and it was obvious that she was a little helpless, but there was nothing she could do. She could only see if both parties could reach some kind of agreement. The people of the Wen family were not someone she could take their lives at will.
"Master Wen and the county lady know each other."
The little leader noticed Lan Wangshu's gaze and felt that this was a good opportunity.
"Yes, my Lord Commander."
"I dare not. I am just a commander, not worth mentioning."
The little leader was so frightened that his face turned pale, and he quickly complimented Wen Ziheng humbly.
"Master Wen is a man of extraordinary talent, a leader among men. I can only aspire to be better than him."
"You are quite good at talking."
Lan Wangshu looked at the young leader and didn't expect that he had some skills. In this era, the government detectives usually did not hire people from wealthy families. They were basically illiterate men. There were not many detectives like him who could judge the situation and had some literary skills.
The little leader, looking at Lan Wangshu's somewhat teasing eyes, could only force out an ugly smile.
"County Master, please stop teasing me."
The little leader didn't dare to look at Lan Wangshu. He always felt that this woman was full of tricks and he was no match for her.
Anyone who can know the third son of the Wen family and can even address him by his courtesy name can't be just an ordinary person. He will not get involved in it, lest he suffer any unprovoked disaster.
"It's not a joke. If you are good at studying, it would be good for you to pass the imperial examination in the future. You can't stay in the same position forever. Some things are in the past, and there is no guarantee that they will not be dug up and criticized one day."
The little leader listened carefully and understood the hidden meaning of Lan Wangshu's words. To be honest, this was a kind of support and guidance for him.
"Boss, no."
"Boss, no."
Soon, soldiers in uniform stood in a row in front of Lan Wangshu.
"My Lady, the matter of lost property is probably a bit complicated. The other party is a repeat offender and has left no loopholes. Please wait for a moment, my Lord, and I will go back and discuss with you how to solve this matter."
"It's time to have a good talk with your master. This is not a trivial matter when it comes to His Majesty. What's more, we still have to pay for the military expenses on the front line. It concerns the country. No one wants the country to be in turmoil. Otherwise, who can benefit from it?"
Lan Wangshu's face was facing the little leader. When she spoke of the benefits, her gaze could not help but turn towards Wen Ziheng's direction. The little leader looked into her eyes and subconsciously looked over there as well. He soon understood what she meant.
He silently complained about Lan Wangshu in his heart. He thought Lan Wangshu was more cunning than the third master Wen.
"Don't worry, County Master. We will leave first. You can have a good rest."
The little leader clasped his fists respectfully, then placed his hand on the hilt of his sword and left with the group.
When he went out, there were a few people gathered outside, who were just watching the show. When they saw the soldiers coming out, they quickly took a step back with fear on their faces.
"Zui Fusheng was robbed, and there are clues to tell us."
The little leader had a serious expression on his face, and it really looked like that.
His heart was beating fast, he didn't know what Lan Wangshu was planning. So many people died, and he just said it was a theft. He really didn't understand.
Following the principle of less trouble is worse than more, the young commander walked away leisurely, still holding the note given by Lan Wangshu in his hand.
"Ah? Zui Fusheng lost something."
"I thought that person was not a good person. I didn't expect that he would not only ruin Zui Fusheng's reputation, but also have such dirty hands."
Takahashi was hanging upside down on the second-floor balcony, not knowing what to say for a moment. He pouted helplessly. What they said was indeed true, he was indeed not very honest.
"County Lady, do you need help from Wen?"
Lan Wangshu glanced at Wen Ziheng suspiciously. She didn't think that this man was a good person. People from aristocratic families were all the same. When it came to interests, they would definitely choose aristocratic families. This was an idea passed down for many years.
Otherwise, what is culture? It is to educate people with culture, to train all the children into tools, and to enjoy it one by one. When one day they figure it out, it is time to use these people, and of course they will be happy to reap the benefits.
"Thank you, Master Wen. I'm sorry to trouble you."
Lan Wangshu didn't know what he was planning, but she was very clear about her plans and goals, so it would be better for her not to have too much contact with people from aristocratic families.
Most of the people who are carefully trained in this way are very excellent. What if you are reluctant to take action when the time comes? Wouldn't that just cause trouble for yourself?
"I know who did it. The county lady doesn't have to resist. I am me, not the Wen family."
"Your last name is Wen."
Wen Ziheng was stunned for a moment, then shook his head and smiled bitterly, looking a little distressed that he was a member of the Wen family.
Lan Wangshu's eyes did not fluctuate. She did not believe what Wen Ziheng said. Now it seemed that this man was most likely an elite from an aristocratic family.
Low-level people control money, middle-level people control people, and high-level people control people's hearts. This is the difference.
Wen Ziheng was trying to win her heart, but she was not a fool and could see through his plan.
"County Lady, are you unwilling to trust me? I just admire your talent and became friends with you."
