Yang Zhao was a little confused after hearing this, not sure what Wang Zhi meant.

He hesitated, but still asked: "I heard that the dead men of the East Palace are hiding in Jiwen's mansion, and the right minister has been handed over to Wang Langzhong for investigation. I wonder if we need manpower?"

Wang Xian smiled and looked at Xue Bai.

Xue Bai quickly saluted.

Although he didn't say a word, he actually gave Wang Fei another big gift.

——I don’t doubt the Wang family, I only doubt Jiwen. I have to go and check Jiwen carefully.

"That's fine." Wang Fei said, "I'll send one person to go with Yang Canjun."

Yang Zhao was overjoyed and immediately understood what Wang Fei meant.

Randomly taking some worthless items and returning them to Yang Shenjin promoted Wang Shenjin's desire to repay his kindness. If Yang Shenjin was dissatisfied then, it would have nothing to do with Wang Shenjin, and it would be a shameless act.

Yang Zhao had to take Xue Bai to the Youxiaowei Yamen to transfer people and wait for the king to send him.

"Has Pei Mian arrived?"

"Already waiting for Alang in the study."

Wang Fei returned to the study from the front hall.

In the study, a man wearing a dark blue official robe quickly stood up, saluted the king respectfully, and called: "Your Majesty."

"Zhang Fu, there's no need to be polite, just sit down."

Wang Fei took the seat first, and when he looked around, he saw Pei Mian waiting for a while before sitting down on the bench, and he couldn't help but be very satisfied.

Pei Mian, also named Zhangfu, was forty-three years old at the time, older than Wang Xian.

He was born in the Pei family in Hedong, and had been an official for generations. When he entered the officialdom, he was awarded Weinan County Wei, and when he first entered the officialdom, he was appointed Guanji County. His background was much higher than that of a common man from a high family like Wang Xian.

When Wang He was in charge of He Bian and served as the interview and deposed envoy within the Gyeonggi Pass, he was still just a judge under Wang He.

But Pei Mian was decisive and loyal in character. What was even more rare was that he never looked down upon Wang Xi, a concubine, as a legitimate son of a high family, and had a humble and respectful attitude.

He also stood up when Wang He was assassinated and blocked a knife for Wang He...

"The dead men of the East Palace are hiding in my brother's house." Wang Xian asked directly: "You were there last night, do you know?"

In order to make money, the two of them did more dirty things than this heinous crime. Pei Mian didn't react much after hearing this and replied slowly.

"The prince also knows that I live very close to the second brother's villa. Last night, before midnight, the second brother sent someone to say that an old steward of the villa passed away and the funeral had to be held at night to avoid wasting time.

The master's house was affected by the sun, and it was hard to have anyone to take charge of it. I didn't dare to neglect, so I went straight over. I also noticed that the servants in the other house were all strong and had strong looks. I didn't think in that direction at the time.

.”

"Where have people gone?"

"I performed rituals at night and took him to the Yanping Gate in the southwest. I waited until the city gate opened at dawn and then sent him out of the city for burial. I left at that time."

The Yanping Gate is in the southwest of Chang'an, and the Sixteenth Guards of Nanya searched the northeast corner of Chang'an all night. At this time, it was too late to pursue further investigations.

However, Wang Fei was not very concerned about this matter and said: "My brother is not colluding with the East Palace. He was used by Ji Wen. Someone died in Ji Wen's house last night... Do you know what to do?"

Pei Mian stood up, saluted and said: "Don't worry, Your Majesty, I have never made any mistakes when doing things for Your Majesty."

Wang Fei nodded, and the topic suddenly changed.

"The saint loves the imperial concubine more and more. This matter will also benefit Yang Zhao. Let him take You Xiaowei to investigate with you."

"Here."

"The right prime minister has a new dog named Xue Bai. You have established evidence of Ji Wen's crime and let him and Luo Xishi hear about it."

Wang Fei didn't notice that Pei Mian was stunned for a moment.

~~

Xuanyangfang, Jiwen Villa.

Yang Zhao and Xue Bai stood in front of the blocked door and waited until they yawned all day long, and finally heard a shout.

"Coming."

Xue Bai turned around and saw Luo Xishi coming side by side with someone else, and was stunned for a moment.

"You don't recognize that person, do you?"

"I don't recognize it."

Xue Bai shook his head, thinking of the document that he tore into a small piece.

Yang Zhao whispered: "The king's most capable general is Pei Mian. Don't provoke him."

Xue Bai praised: "Since he is the most trusted person among the princes, he will definitely be able to find evidence that Ji Wen colluded with the East Palace."

…

Over there, Pei Mian glanced at him and said casually: "Is that person Xue Bai? I've heard of him, he turns out to be so young."

Luo Xishi said: "Don't look at his young age. He found all the clues when tracking down the dead last night, but it was a pity that it was a step too late."

Pei Mian looked calm, doing his own thing, and just made a casual comment.

"That's great. You will definitely become a great person in the future, right?"

~~

This group of minions of the right prime minister entered Jiwen's mansion, and they were immediately in a state of panic.

Xue Bai always followed Yang Zhao.

He stayed up all night, and his eyelids gradually felt heavy.

Suddenly, Luo Xishi hurried out of the backyard without saying hello to Yang Zhao. He didn't even ask about his belongings and left quickly.

Xue Bai glanced back, knowing that Luo Xishi had found evidence.

He knew that since this evidence was given by Pei Mian, it would definitely satisfy Li Linfu.

But, in this case, can he still defeat the prince? Xue Bai suddenly became suspicious again...

"What are you thinking about?" Yang Zhao put down the turquoise in his hand and praised: "Ji Wen has copied a lot of good things over the years."

"yes."

"What do you want? Just ask!"

Where Xue Bai's eyes fell, it was in the west wing where the slaves were detained. Several figures in colorful skirts were kneeling in the corridor, looking very pitiful.
