Wen Tingyun's face looked very ugly. He suddenly pulled Sheng Qingqian back, causing Sheng Qingqian to stagger and almost fall.

Wen Tingyun didn't look at her. He just smiled and said to Commander Lin, "I have no idea what happened, and I have a clear conscience. Since Commander Lin wants me to cooperate with the investigation, then of course I should fully cooperate."

He had a warm smile on his face, but in his heart he wished he could make some medicine to poison Sheng Qingqian and make her mute.

They might not have any clear evidence in their hands. At least when he thought carefully about everything he had done before and after, he did not think of any loopholes.

In all likelihood, Commander Lin and Sheng Nanzhi were simply conspiring to deceive them.

Sheng Qingqian was so resistant to cooperating with the investigation that she even brought up the fictitious child in her belly.

She acted like she was being unreasonable, relying on her status as the seventh prince's consort and the child in her belly.

Instead, it made their situation more unfavorable.

Wen Tingyun gritted his teeth secretly. He knew that Sheng Qingqian, a concubine's daughter, was not presentable at all and would sooner or later cause trouble.

When he found out that the person he was going to marry was Sheng Qingqian, he should have sent her back directly.

What does it have to do with him whether her reputation is damaged or whether she will hate him from now on?

But now that things have come to this, there is no way for him to start over again.

He secretly gritted his teeth, hoping that Sheng Qingqian would not talk nonsense.

Otherwise, he would definitely not forgive this outspoken bitch after he returned!

He thought about it, turned his head, glared at Sheng Qingqian fiercely, and then said leisurely: "Commander Lin, what do you want to ask? Where are we going?"

Commander Lin said quickly, "Let's go to the front yard."

Sheng Nanzhi watched Commander Lin take the two away, and the corners of her mouth curled up slightly. It was really a good show for her to watch.

However, Sheng Qingqian's reaction was a bit too extreme.

They didn't even produce any evidence.

She stroked the embroidered handkerchief in her hand and thought carefully. Could it be because of the things that happened in the Mu family in her previous life?

In the previous life, the Mu family was framed because they stood on the wrong side, were accused of treason and were executed.

Sheng Qingqian witnessed the beheading of members of the Mu family with her own eyes, and was then exiled along with other female members of the Mu family.

Probably because of his experiences in his previous life, Sheng Qingqian was particularly sensitive to crimes such as treason and rebellion.

That's why he acted so frightened and scared when Commander Lin suspected him just now.

Sheng Nanzhi lowered her eyes and her eyelashes trembled.

With Sheng Qingqian's behavior just now, Wen Tingyun is such a petty person. Even if he can deal with it today, he will definitely not let Sheng Qingqian go easily after returning home.

But he probably wouldn't dare to do anything to Sheng Qingqian, because Sheng Qingqian was still Sheng Lin's daughter after all.

If Wen Tingyun wants to win over Sheng Lin, he has to rely on his daughter.

After realizing this, Sheng Nanzhi loosened her grip on the embroidered handkerchief a little.

Sheng Qingqian was reborn and tried every means to marry Wen Tingyun. Let them fight it out, and let her see what kind of person the person she tried so hard to marry is.

She glanced at the person lying on the bed, then turned around and went back to the attic.

Knowing that someone in the palace was protecting Wen Tingyun, Sheng Nanzhi didn't think that Wen Tingyun could confess anything.

But she still couldn't help but feel a little aggrieved for Shi Huaizhi.

They are all sons of the current emperor, and Shi Huaizhi has been raised by his side since he was a child, watching him grow up.

After nearly twenty years, even if you raise a dog, you should have feelings for it, let alone a person.

It is said that Shi Huaizhi was taught personally by the current emperor.

However, because he was afraid of the power of Concubine Hua's mother's family, afraid that Shi Huaizhi would seize his power early, and afraid of the dictatorship of the foreign relatives, he directly attacked Shi Huaizhi, causing him to fall into a coma and hang on to his life.

However, he indulged his newly adopted son in every way and was able to cover up any mistakes he made.

This father is really terrible.

Shi Huaizhi is also quite pitiful.

Sheng Nanzhi pursed her lips, looking a little unhappy.

"What are you thinking about?"

Sheng Nanzhi was so absorbed in her thoughts that she didn't even notice when Shi Huaizhi appeared silently behind her.

Hearing the question coming from behind, Sheng Nanzhi answered his question almost subconsciously: "I was thinking how pitiful you are, and how terrible your father is."

After Sheng Nanzhi finished speaking, she finally reacted and turned to look at Shi Huaizhi: "Why are you here? When did you come?"

Shi Huaizhi smiled, with a hint of laughter in his eyes: "Princess, have you forgotten that I am now your personal guard? I have always been here."

"I just felt that the princess was in a bad mood, so I asked her what she was thinking and if there was anything she needed my help with."

He paused, the corners of his mouth slightly raised, as if smiling: "So, the princess is thinking about me?"

Why does this sound so strange?

But it also seems that there is no way to refute it.

She was indeed thinking about Shi Huaizhi just now...

But I don’t want to think about it now.

Even when this person is silent, just looking at his face is still pleasing to the eye.

But as soon as he opens his mouth, it makes people want to roll their eyes.

What's more, now that he was wearing such a human skin mask, he had lost the only capital that could seduce her.

"Don't distort the facts and say something that seems to be true but is misleading."

Shi Huaizhi laughed out loud: "I'm not wrong."

Sheng Nanzhi was too lazy to argue with him and simply changed the subject: "Commander Lin probably won't be able to get anything out of you."

"What are your plans?"

Shi Huaizhi looked off into the distance nonchalantly, "Commander Lin really couldn't get anything out of Wen Tingyun."

"But it happened, there has to be a result, right?"

"Let's just wait for a result."

"Look at that person in the palace, who is he planning to bring down this time?"

"Actually, to me, it doesn't matter who I bring down."

"After all, as long as it's not me, then everyone else is my opponent."

"As for opponents, one less is one less. It's just a matter of priority."

Sheng Nanzhi nodded, that's true.

They didn't have to wait long, and soon the origin of the weapons was investigated.

"The craftsmen who made these weapons were found, and the Ministry of War and the Ministry of Revenue verified the origin and destination of these weapons and learned that they were originally intended to be shipped to the northern border."

"The other weapons from the same batch are already on the way. I just don't know why this batch appeared in Prince Yi's Mansion."

"They're already investigating where the weapons from the same batch were shipped to, and who handled them."
