The Cold-Faced God of War's Favored Concubine Is Not to Be Tried

The old abbot looked at Zuo Xinyi's pensive look and couldn't help feeling impatient. He frowned and asked sternly, "Female donor, do you have any way to find out the truth? If you just talk here without taking any practical action, I'm afraid it will only make things more complicated."

The old abbot's words revealed his doubts and dissatisfaction with Zuo Xinyi. He hoped to solve the current trouble as soon as possible instead of listening to her empty talk here.

Seeing this, Zuo Xinyi's heart tightened, but she did not show panic. She took a deep breath, calmed down, and then replied respectfully: "Abbot, calm down. Although I am not talented, I do have an idea. We can first investigate secretly to see if there are other clues that can point to the truth. At the same time, we can also send people to ask the families of those dignitaries to see if anyone knows the inside story. This can avoid direct conflict and gradually reveal the truth of the matter." She said this to let the abbot send someone to check the number of people. If anyone is not resting in his own room, it may be the person inside!

Although her words were respectful, her tone revealed a kind of firmness and confidence. She believed that her method could help the old abbot solve the problem, and at the same time win more trust and respect for herself.

The old abbot looked at Zuo Xinyi, with a shrewd look in his eyes. He obviously saw her ulterior motives, but at the same time he admitted that her proposal was not unreasonable. After weighing the pros and cons, the old abbot decided to temporarily put aside his doubts and adopt her suggestion.

He nodded and said in a deep voice: "Since you have this idea, then let's do as you say. I will send people to act separately, one way to the east wing, one way to the west wing, and investigate carefully. Be sure to act carefully and don't alert the enemy."

The old abbot's words revealed a kind of majesty and decisiveness. He immediately ordered several guards to take more people and act separately, trying to complete the task in the shortest time possible.

Seeing this, Zuo Xinyi couldn't help but feel relieved. She knew that her plan had been approved by the old abbot, and now she just needed to wait for the results of the investigation.

Zuo Xinyi stood outside the door, listening to the panting inside, with an indescribable joy in her heart. Feng Yanan's figure immediately appeared in her mind. Feng Yanan, who was so high and mighty just now, was actually doing such an unbearable thing with a man in this confined space.

Zuo Xinyi felt inexplicably excited, as if she saw Feng Yanan about to fall from grace. She couldn't help but secretly laugh in her heart: "Feng Yanan, Feng Yanan, you are having an affair with someone before you even get married. How can you hold your head up in front of others in the future? The fiancée of the War King, right? How can the War King marry you if you are so dissolute? Just wait!"

A smug smile appeared on the corner of her mouth, as if she had seen Feng Yanan's collapse.

The guards were really quick. After a short while, several guards came running back to report the situation. One of the guards spoke first, his voice trembling slightly: "Abbot, everything is normal in the east wing. Except for those who are here, everyone else has gone to bed."

Another guard seemed even more anxious. He cupped his hands and said, "Over in the west wing, there is a courtyard that is unusually quiet. No one responded when I knocked on the door and called out. I dared to go in and check, and found that there was no one in the courtyard.

As soon as these words came out, everyone was shocked. They looked at each other with unbelievable expressions on their faces. Zuo Xinyi stood aside, with a sly light in her eyes.

Unable to suppress her curiosity and excitement, she leaned forward slightly, eager to know which lady's residence was in that empty yard. She couldn't help asking, with a hint of urgency in her voice: "Dear guards, do you know which lady lives in that yard?" Her eyes were shining with curiosity and inquiry, as if she wanted to see through the layers of fog and get to the other side of the truth. Although she tried to keep her tone calm, she couldn't hide her urgency and expectation anyway.

Although her voice was not loud, it was loud enough for everyone present to hear clearly. Everyone began to whisper and speculate about the possible suspects. However, Zuo Xinyi was secretly proud in her heart!

Everyone stood outside the room, talking about it, their faces full of confusion and curiosity. They whispered to each other, trying to deduce the identity of the young lady from various clues.

"I heard that a young lady checked in yesterday, but I don't know from which family." A guard frowned, trying to recall what happened yesterday.

"Yes, we haven't seen him either, but we heard that a distinguished guest is staying here," another guard added.
