My Ancient Stepson Bootcamp

An hour later, Emperor Zhao You specially summoned Xu Junze and Xiao Chen in the Imperial Study Room. Xia Guo's Regent Duan Jie had just left the palace. He wanted Emperor Zhao You to severely punish Xu Mingye, the murderer, and give an answer within three days, otherwise peace talks would be held. This is the end, Xia Guo's mission will leave immediately, and we will see you on the battlefield afterwards.

"What's the result of the autopsy?" The emperor tapped his forehead with his bent index finger in a headache. Arriving in Beijing, the capital has never been peaceful again.

Xiao Chen took a step forward and replied: "Your Majesty, there are three obvious marks of being bitten by wolves on Duan Yunwei's body, but his fatal wound was stabbed three times in the chest by a dagger. I have already asked General Xu about that dagger. It was the dagger worn by Xu Mingye, the second son of the Xu family, and the imperial physician who treated Duan Yunwei at that time also confirmed that he saw Xu Mingye kill Duan Yunwei."

After finishing speaking, Xiao Chen took a special look at Xu Junze. As we all know, the brothers of the Xu family and the brothers of the Duan family had a feud, and Xu Minghan, the youngest of the Xu family, was almost disfigured. .

But at the same time, Xiao Chen also had doubts about this. With his many years of experience in handling cases, although Xu Mingye looked young and impulsive and wild, he didn't seem to be the kind of person who was completely reckless. He always felt that there must be something hidden in it.

Of course, he wouldn't rely on his feelings when investigating the case. Now that the evidence was complete, Xu Mingye's murder seemed difficult to change.

"Xiao Chen, we must investigate this case thoroughly. If the second child of the Xu family really killed Duan Yunwei, I'm afraid I won't be able to keep him!" Xu Junze who sent it, he trusts and respects his righteous brother very much, and knows that he loves and loves those children very much, but no one can condone the serious crime of violating the national law and provoking a war between the two countries.

Xu Junze understood the meaning in the emperor's eyes at this time, he didn't find it strange that Xu Mingye wanted to kill Duan Yunwei, what was strange to him was that with Xu Mingye's current ability, even with the help of Ah Lang and the dark guard, he couldn't have done it so smoothly. Just entered that mansion, this matter is not as simple as it appears on the surface, not to mention that Xu Mingye has been complaining about being wronged, and the hidden guard has also died. The only ones who know the truth are those from Xia Guo and the imperial physician who was in the mansion at that time .

Xiao Chen reassured the emperor that he would find out the truth as soon as possible, and Xu Junze also said that he would assist Xiao Chen to solve the case together.

On the way out of the palace, Xiao Chen asked Xu Junze: "If it is really found out that your second young master killed Duan Yunwei, what will you do?"

Xu Junze looked at him calmly and replied: "If you make a mistake, you have to bear the consequences, no matter who he is!"

Xiao Chen seemed a little surprised that Xu Junze would say this, because no matter how big the mistakes the Xu family's children made in the past, Xu Junze stepped forward to settle them for them. This time, he thought that Xu Junze would protect Xu Mingye without any principles, but He didn't mean to be defensive.

"Sister Shu Ran is very concerned about these children of the Xu family. If she finds out about the second youngest of your family, she will be very anxious, and her current body will not be able to bear it!" When he was about to leave the palace gate, he said these words to Xu Junze, he was very worried about Lin Shuran's situation after he knew about Xu Mingye.

The last thing Xu Junze wanted to discuss with Xiao Chen was the matter of Lin Shuran. Although he could see that Lin Shuran had no affection for Xiao Chen, and even she was deliberately avoiding Xiao Chen, but Xiao Chen cared about his wife so much, he felt in his heart Somewhat uncomfortable.

Uncomfortable, uncomfortable, he didn't act like a jealous husband, but nodded and said: "Don't worry, I've already told someone to hide this matter from her!"

Xiao Chen didn't say any more, he could feel that the distance between himself and Lin Shuran was getting farther and farther, maybe being able to watch her happy by the side was enough for him.

Lin Shuran always felt a little uncomfortable in the past two days. She couldn't tell what was strange, but she just felt something was wrong.

That day Ah Lang disappeared and Xu Mingye didn't come back either. Although Xu Junze went back to the mansion and told her that both Ah Lang and Xu Mingye had been found, she had to stay at the farm for a while before coming back, so she didn't have to worry.

But no matter the servants around her or the children of the Xu family, they seemed to be avoiding her eyes on purpose, more like hiding something, asking them but not saying anything, even Lingqin and Feiyue were like this.

Early in the morning, she called the ninth Xu Mingsong and the tenth Xu Mingsheng over, saying that they wanted new toys from the woodware shop, but for the first time, both of them said that they were going to study, but they avoided seeing Lin Shuran .

"These two boys don't even play with toys anymore!" Lin Shuran was just pregnant, but she was not slow. Her intuition told her that everyone must be hiding something from her, and her family couldn't find out, so she went outside to find out the news, so she asked Lingqin and Feiyue prepared a carriage for her, and she planned to go out of the house.

"Ma'am, you are pregnant, what is there for this servant to do!" Xu Junze secretly approached Lingqin, Feiyue and others, including Mei, who was out to inquire about news, and strictly ordered them not to disclose Xu Mingye's affairs to Lin Shuran. Even Uncle Wu came back and warned them. Now that the news about Xu Mingye's killing of Duan Yunwei was spreading outside, if Lin Shuran went out at this time, he might know what happened soon.

Lin Shuran waved his hand and said: "There are some things you can't do, I have to go out in person, hurry up and prepare the car!"

Lingqin gave Feiyue a look, Feiyue turned and walked out the door, then found Nanny Zhang, and at the same time sent someone to inform Xu Junze.

As soon as Zhang Momo heard that Lin Shuran was going out, she immediately appeared in front of her and strongly stopped her, saying: "Miss, you must not go out now, you are pregnant with a child, you should rest in peace at home!"

Everyone in the house knows that Lin Shuran has a good temper and listens to advice, but that is usually when Lin Shuran thinks many things are harmless, she is friendly and everyone is on good terms, so there is no need to be strong or put on a dignified and difficult appearance of the mistress. But when it's time to be tough, she won't take a step back.

"Nurse, don't worry about this matter. I know my own body well. Even if I'm pregnant, it won't affect my travel. I'm the mistress of this great general. If I have to go out now, I have to stop her." I can't do it? Could it be that I can't even decide when I go out of the house to run errands?!" Lin Shuran suddenly put on a straight face and rarely spoke harshly to Nanny Zhang.
