The harsh sound of the door opening sounded and spread far away. Soon a man wrapped in a black robe came out of the door and quickly disappeared into the night.

Two heads appeared from the door, one looked around from left to right, observed for a while before retreating, and with the harsh sound of the wooden door closing again.

"Master, there should be no one outside."

Zhao Hu reported in a low voice in front of Wei Guangde.

"It's late at night, you can rest too."

Wei Guangde nodded and asked them to go back to rest. He turned around and walked back to the inner courtyard.

Chen Ju's arrival tonight was very sudden and the news he brought was shocking. He would never have thought that this would be the case before.

To be honest, Wei Guangde is really worried now.

Although he had doubts about what Chen Ju said later, it was about Lu Bing's death and the establishment of the crown prince.

The interval between Guo Xiyan's execution and Lu Bing's death was very short. In just a few days, Wei Guangde felt that it was unlikely that the murderer would get rid of Lu Bing because of this. Otherwise, it could only be said that the murderer was really powerful.

However, from what Chen Ju said, it seems that he felt that this was the main reason why Lu Bing was eliminated there.

Forget it, I thought about it while walking, and I had to remind him when I met Gao Gong tomorrow.

As Chen Ju said, if you use private means to attack political enemies, once you open this hole, you will probably use it continuously in the future. This is really dangerous for those who rely on Prince Yu's mansion.

Wei Guangde was not worried that Chen Ju would lie to him. Chen Ju was a sensible person and he also bet on King Yu as the crown prince, so he said so much to him. At this time, he came to report the news.

There is definitely no time to send messages today, and there is no need to.

Whether it was the Yan family or King Jing, I was afraid that at this time I knew what the actions were discovered by Emperor Jiajing.

Wei Guangde doesn't have to guess. With his limited knowledge of investigating cases, he can guess that any eunuch who has the opportunity to contact the elixir after the elixir is refined is afraid that he will have been taken to the East Factory for tea at this time.

Of course, he didn't care whether they had any tea in the East Factory, but he knew that the people behind the scenes should not dare to make any big noise at this time, and it was too late to find a way to silence them now.

When we meet Gao Gong tomorrow, should we make an appointment with Yin Shidan, Chen Yiqin and others, and give them a brief introduction to this matter?

Wei Guangde thought about it and went to the backyard and knocked on the door. Soon there was a movement in the door.

"who?"

The inner courtyard door has been locked from inside, after all, it is very late.

"It's me."

Wei Guangde replied, and then he heard the sound of unlocking behind the door. Soon after, the inner courtyard door opened.

After looking at the healthy woman who opened the door, Wei Guangde just asked casually: "Have you gone to bed by madam?"

It was a little nonsense. Xu Jianglan had already been asleep at this time. When asked this question, Wei Guangde mainly considered going back to the bedroom to sleep or going to the study to rest.

"Mrs. is still in the house and has no rest."

An unexpected answer appeared in Wei Guangde's ears, "Hmm? I understand."

Xu Jianglan did not rest, and Wei Guangde shook his head gently and then walked towards the bedroom.

When he approached, he knew that the healthy woman was really right. There was a bright light on the window, and it was obvious that the lights were lit in the house.

After a little heavier pace in front of the door, Wei Guangde pushed the door open and entered.

There was only Xu Jianglan and her personal maid in the room, and no other maids were seen.

"It's so late, why haven't you rested yet?"

Wei Guangde asked casually.

"You go out and watch."

Xu Jianglan smiled at Wei Guangde, first stood up to salute Wei Guangde, and then ordered the maid.

After the person left the house, Xu Jianglan came over to serve Wei Guangde's clothes and asked in a low voice: "Eunuch Chen suddenly visited tonight. What happened?"

It turns out that it's because of this.

Wei Guangde knew in his heart that Xu Jianglan didn't sleep so late should be because of Chen Ju's visit that she guessed something, but she didn't know whether it was good or bad.

“Nothing happens.”

Wei Guangde pretended to be unintentional.

"Officials don't want to lie to me. If it were the past, it would be nothing. But Eunuch Chen is here today and he is unwilling to ask you to come back. There must be something important to tell you."
