At the end of the alley is a dilapidated courtyard that has been abandoned for many years.
The flickering candlelight trembled and swayed as it peeked through the crack in the door, as if it might go out at any moment.
In the courtyard, a tall and upright figure stood in the center.
It was dark all around, so his expression was not visible, only a pair of cold, deep blue eyes that gleamed with a chilling light.
The night wind lifted the hem of his dark robe, brushing against the foreheads of the two kneeling figures.
Both of them kept their heads down and remained silent.
"Whose orders?" Wei Lengyao asked coldly.
Silence.
Wei Lengyao turned around, his eyes cold and menacing. He suddenly raised his foot and kicked one of the men in the shoulder blade.
The man groaned, and the black veil covering his face fell away, revealing an old face.
“Young Master, you should remember your place!” he said, his voice low and hoarse.
A burly man with a full beard stepped aside to support the old man and looked at Wei Lengyao, saying, "It's the madam's idea."
“I remember I already explained it to her,” Wei Lengyao said.
Despite the pain, the old man said solemnly, "Young Master, you know very well what kind of person Madam is. Now, with the internal strife in the Great Liang Dynasty just beginning, this is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity."
Wei Lengyao did not speak.
The old man continued, "What has been the purpose of all these years of forbearance, Madam? Young Master should not forget. Now that your foundation in Liang is secure, why are you still hesitant to take action?!"
"Tie Zheng, you've said too much," Wei Lengyao said coldly.
"Young Master, you..." Tie Zheng was about to say something more when he suddenly coughed violently.
“Young Master, as long as you don’t take action, Madam will continue to order us around,” the burly man with a full beard patted Tie Zheng on the back. His Mandarin was not very fluent, and he said word by word, “Things like today will happen again.”
Gu Qingyin experienced a murder scene for the first time. After returning to the yamen, she discussed the case with Wang Fang, the coroner, and others. Later, she simply slept in the yamen.
Being in an unfamiliar place, she slept very restlessly, tossing and turning until the fourth watch of the night before finally managing to fall asleep. However, she was woken up early the next morning by a constable sent by Wang Fang.
It turns out that a rape occurred last night, and the victim was a wealthy young lady with some social standing.
Gu Qingyin and Wang Fang personally visited the victim's residence to investigate the case.
In fact, Wang knew what was going on. In these kinds of cases, you usually couldn't get any information out of them. The victim was an ordinary, weak woman who was in a state of shock and pain when the incident happened, so she couldn't provide any useful clues.
The reason he came, and had to bring Gu Qingyin along, was simply to demonstrate the importance the Jingzhao Prefecture attached to this case. Another reason was because of Lu Xun's instructions.
The two sat in the mansion for half a day, asking the servants who knew the situation. Before they knew it, it was noon.
"What are your thoughts on this case, Lord Wang?" Gu Qingyin did not ride in a sedan chair, but walked side by side with Wang Fang on the street.
Wang Fang shook his head. "It's hard to say. It seems like it was committed by someone we know."
Gu Qingyin asked some more questions about the case, and Wang Fangjun truthfully shared his thoughts.
The two walked and talked, and before they knew it, they had arrived near a house.
Gu Qingyin looked at Wang Fang with a puzzled expression. "Officer Wang, what's this?"
“Lord Gu, this is our master’s residence. We must report today’s case to him,” Wang Fang replied.
Gu Qingyin nodded and cupped her hands in thanks, saying, "In that case, I'll have to trouble Officer Wang."
With that, he turned to leave on his own.
“Lord Gu, please wait,” Wang Fang said hastily. “The Lord specifically instructed me to lead you into the mansion.”
"This," Gu Qingyin hesitated, "wouldn't this be too forward for you, sir?"
She didn't want to see Lu Xun; she simply couldn't stand his aloof and arrogant demeanor.
Wang Fang waved his hand, "No, the sir is not someone who cares about those formalities."
So, Gu Qingyin followed Wang Fang into Lu Xun's mansion.
Small bridges over flowing water, winding corridors, lotus leaves covering the fields, and rippling blue waves.
The beauty of Lu Xun's residence was beyond Gu Qingyin's expectations.
She recalled the grand gates and spacious courtyards, with pine and cypress trees, that she had seen when she first entered the Jingzhao Prefecture, a stark contrast to the scene before her.
