In the dark night, the Dali Temple government office looked even more solemn.

"Shilang Guo?"

Seeing Guo Yihui, the gatekeeper was very surprised: "Why are you here at this hour?"

Xu Shi had never done anything like this before. Guo Yihui was very nervous, his lips trembled slightly, and he was speechless for a moment.

Cui Hengyue, who was dressed as a servant beside him, quietly pulled Guo Yihui's sleeve. Guo Yihui suddenly woke up and pretended to be calm: "There are new developments in the assassination case of the Princess Regent. I came to the government office to check the confession."

The officer then opened the door and welcomed in Guo Yihui's master and servant.

Seeing their figures getting further and further away, the gatekeeper could not help but start talking:

"I didn't expect that Shilang Guo was so diligent. He was still thinking about the case after he went to office. Sure enough, he is a new official and is eager to make some achievements to show to His Majesty and the Regent."

"He comes from a poor family. If he doesn't work hard, how will he be able to compete with the children of aristocratic families in the court..."

The discussion behind him became quieter and quieter. Cui Hengyue glanced sideways at Guo Yihui's clenched fist and couldn't help but comfort him: "Don't worry, Minister Guo. I'm just looking at the file and I won't take anything away.

"If you don't tell me about this, no third party will know."

However, these words did not appease Guo Yihui. On the contrary, Guo Yihui felt even more uneasy.

Looking through the files of old cases, it is still a major case. How can this be a trivial matter? It is clearly a big deal that will make you lose your head.

No wonder this husband helped him before. It turned out that he wanted to help him take the position of minister of the Ministry of Justice, and then use his identity to check the files.

It's a pity that he didn't think so much at the time and easily agreed to the husband's conditions. Now he is in a dilemma and has no choice but to face the difficulty.

There were only yamen guards in the government office at night. With Guo Yihui's current status, he could easily enter the file room.

After confirming that no one was around, Guo Yihui urged: "Hurry up, finish reading and leave quickly."

Cui Hengyue stood still, scanning the files on the wooden shelf: "I'm not familiar with this place, please help me find it."

"..."

Guo Yihui felt very regretful, but he resignedly walked to the innermost row of wooden shelves and searched them one by one.

Cui Hengyue followed him inside, but stopped at the wooden shelf next to him, glanced at it, and took out one of the files to look at.

"found it."

Guo Yihui stood on tiptoes and pulled out two volumes of cases from the upper wooden shelf.

Cui Hengyue hurriedly put the file in her hand back to its original place, took the file handed over by Guo Yihui and looked at it.

Guo Yihui hesitated for a moment, then slowly leaned over and stared at the file in Cui Hengyue's hand.

Time passed slowly, the candle light on the table gradually changed from bright to faint light, and the room became darker and darker.

"Mr. Lang..." Guo Yihui glanced at the candle lamp and urged softly.

Cui Hengyue finally closed the file and put it back in its original position: "Let's go."

After carefully leaving the government office and returning to his carriage, Guo Yihui's heartbeat returned to normal.

He finally had the opportunity to inquire about the information: "Who is Lang Jun? Why do you want to investigate the case of the former Minister of Household Affairs?"

When asking this question, Guo Yihui thought in his mind: Back then, the former Minister of Hubu's house was ransacked and his family was exterminated, leaving no one alive. This man was not from the Li family of the former Minister of Hubu.

So why is he so concerned about this case?

Could he be...a relative of the Li family?

Cui Hengyue lifted a corner of the curtain and looked out: "I'm just curious. It's best not to mention this to others. This is for your own sake.

"Okay, you have fulfilled your promise. We owe nothing to each other. I hope that Shilang Guo will have a successful career. I am leaving."

Seeing that Cui Hengyue was about to leave, Guo Yihui grabbed her by the corner of her clothes in a hurry: "Mr. Lang, wait a minute."

"What else is there?" Cui Hengyue looked back, her eyes resting on Guo Yihui's hand.

Guo Yihui saw her gaze, quickly let go of his hand, and said embarrassedly: "I...I just want to say, what should I do if I come to you for something?"

Cui Hengyue was stunned.

That's right, this person works in the Ministry of Punishment and should be of use in the future.

She thought for a moment: "If you come to me for anything, just go to Qingxuan Restaurant and find the shopkeeper. Tell him that you want to see the little madman, and he will send a message for you."

Want to see the little madman?

How could someone give themselves such a nickname?

When Guo Yihui was stunned, Cui Hengyue had already slipped out of the carriage and disappeared into the night.

...

This night is destined to be an uneventful night.

Chen Zhan had been sitting in his study since dinner, waiting for Cui Hengyue to fall into his trap.

However, before there was any news that Cui Hengyue broke into the house, there was news that Beidaying was on fire.

Beidaying is the territory of the regent. After hearing the news, he immediately led his people to Beidaying. Before leaving, he specifically told his eldest son: "Keep an eye on these people. No matter who comes, we must catch them."

After Chen Zhan left, Chen Linyu was worried, so he sent more people and called his brother Chen Linshen to sit in the mansion together.

"Eldest brother, do you think Cui Hengyue will come to save people tonight?" Chen Linshen handed over the brewed hot tea.

Chen Linyu took it smoothly and said with certainty: "I trust my father's judgment."

"I don't think so." Chen Linshen gently floated the tea leaves with the tea cup lid and said slowly: "Based on my understanding of her, she knows this is a trap and will never jump in."

Chen Linyu was silent for a moment and retorted: "Being able to place someone next to him shows that Cui Hengyue values ​​this Lady Wen very much.

"There is also the coachman who has followed Cui Hengyue on many trips. Since Cui Hengyue is willing to let him follow him, it means that Cui Hengyue did not hide what he did outside from him.

"They are in the Regent's Mansion. Although they haven't said anything now, they will definitely not be able to hold on for a long time. Cui Hengyue knows this very well and will definitely come to rescue them as soon as possible.

"After tonight, we will know her true strength and the person behind her."

While the two were talking, a guard came to report in a panic: "It's bad, Your Majesty, someone is shooting rockets into the mansion..."

What?

Chen Linyu stood up in shock and subconsciously asked: "Where is the location of the rocket? Is it Songtaoju in the front yard?"

Songtaoju is where the two thieves were imprisoned.

The prince knew the location of the rocket before he went out. He was really good at predicting the location of the rocket. The guard looked at Chen Linyu with admiration: "Yes, Songtaoju was already on fire under the rocket.

"However, Commander Jiang has arranged for people to put out the fire."

Chen Linshen felt very complicated and stood up holding on to the armrest: "She is really here?"

Chen Linyu glanced at him and walked out: "We'll find out if it's her or not."

At this moment, Wang Wenqian, who was hiding on the roof, his eyes shone: "That girl guessed right, the person is not in that yard.

"Dalang, you take people to hold them back, and I'll go rescue them."

After the words fell, the people from the palace divided into two groups and rushed towards two different courtyards of the palace of the regent.

Not far away, Song Zhuoxing arrived with his people and saw that a courtyard of the Regent's Palace was on fire. He was shocked: Could it be that Miss Cui heard the news and came to save people?
