At this critical moment, a sudden shout attracted everyone's attention.

"Report——"

"Eunuch, Huang Shan is missing!"

One of Wei Chengji's accompanying eunuchs hurried over and reported loudly.

After hearing this, Wei Chengji's hand relaxed, and the redness in Deng Weixian's eyes also faded a little.

"Who is Huang Shan?"

Li Xuan and Deng Weixian had the same questions in their minds.

But Wei Chengji's face darkened, he glanced at the charred corpse on the ground, and then glanced at Deng Weixian, who was still glaring at him with a fierce expression and tears in his eyes.

Wei Chengji didn't care at all. He even put a disdainful smile on his face, let go of Deng Weixian's head and ignored him.

"Young people are very angry. The little eunuchs who have just entered the palace are much less servile than us."

Wei Chengji shook his head and laughed. Thinking about this, he smoothed the wrinkles on his clothes and his face became calm and calm again, as if the devil who had previously questioned Deng Weixian was not him.

He turned around and asked the person who came to report: "What's going on? Isn't Huang Shan recuperating? Where did he go?"

Huang Shan is Eunuch Huang’s real name.

Hearing the word recuperation, Li Xuan and Deng Weixian also guessed Huang Shan's identity.

And like Wei Chengji before, they silently turned their attention to the charred corpses on the ground.

"Could it be..."

Not only the two of them, others also began to have the same speculation.

"recuperate?"

"Are you talking about the eunuch who stole your bellyband a few days ago?"

Xia Wanfeng expressed his guess.

"Looking at other people's reactions, it should be yes."

"But why did he burn to death in my room?"

Wang Suyue frowned and subconsciously pressed a hand on her lapel. Bad suspicions suddenly appeared in her mind, making her feel panic and nausea.

She remained calm on the face, but there was a storm in her heart.

But she was a martial arts practitioner after all, and she immediately noticed that there was nothing strange about her body.

But thinking about the small table that was captured a few days ago, the pain in my heart did not ease at all.

Xia Wanfeng had been silently observing Wang Suyue, and could clearly see the change in Wang Suyue's brows frowning and then relaxing, and then frowning slightly again.

She hugged Wang Suyue silently and comforted: "It's okay, don't think too much."

"We are all here with you."

Wang Suyue felt better after being so comforted by Xia Wanfeng. Thinking that she had no real losses, she felt lucky and gradually thought about it.

In the field, Deng Weixian lowered his head, knelt on the ground, and silently reached out to wipe away his tears so that no more people could see him.

As he gradually regained his composure from the rage, his mind began to spin rapidly.

"The burnt corpse is Eunuch Huang..."

"Why is he in Wang Cairen's room?"

"At that time, the fire in him was obviously stronger..."

"He was burned to death before the house was set on fire!"

"And a few days ago, he just stole Wang Cairen's bellyband and was severely punished!"

Suddenly a flash of inspiration flashed in Deng Weixian's mind, and it seemed that a certain "fact" was gradually becoming clear before his eyes.

Li Xuan on the wall also reacted immediately, his pupils shrank, and he exclaimed: "Sure enough, there is a back-up plan."

While I was amazed, I couldn't help but feel terrible.

Deng Weixian's godfather is like a spider spinning a web, luring prey into his trap, and even making the prey fall into the trap willingly.

Even though Li Xuan and Deng Weixian were in the game, they could only glimpse a corner of the entire network due to the limitations of their field of vision.

But even so, it was enough to amaze them.

"Is this the godfather's ability to set up traps?"

At this moment, Li Xuan was no longer worried about Deng Weixian's safety, and was only concerned about watching his godfather's operations.

He was curious about how things would be directed next.

At this time, the accompanying eunuch who came to report answered Wei Chengji's question.

"Father-in-law, someone just went to bring Huang Shan food and medicine, but found that he had disappeared."

"That's why I came here specifically to report."

Such a big thing happened in Yanqu Hall, and Huang Shan disappeared at this time. Naturally, the people below did not dare to be careless and came over to report it.

As soon as the accident happened, the person was gone. Who could not doubt you?

It's a pity that the person is not only dead now, but also seems to be confused.

And the paste is very thorough!

Everyone's eyes glanced at the charred corpse on the ground from time to time, and their suspicion was very obvious.

But as the printing father-in-law, Wei Chengji didn't say anything, so who dared to say anything.

In the end, someone will always be responsible for what happened today, and of course everyone hopes that the dead person will take the blame.

Otherwise, who can guarantee that the blame will not be thrown on oneself.

In the hearts of these people, Wei Chengji is naturally the clear one for Xiao Jiujiu.

But he still needs to verify it carefully before speaking.

As for doing things half-heartedly, there is no other way.

And Wei Chengji couldn't stand someone pooping on his head again and again.

"Store the body properly. No one is allowed to touch it without my order."

"Escort little Dengzi to the woodshed. You two keep an eye on him and don't allow him to have contact with anyone!"

Wei Chengji gave two orders to go down. Seeing Wang Suyue and others still nearby, he frowned and said to them: "You guys go back to the front hall and stay there, don't run around!"

Seeing the stern tone of Mr. Yin Fang's father-in-law, they did not dare to disobey him and complied obediently.

Although Wang Suyue was one of the parties involved, she could not make an independent decision unless the father-in-law Yin Fang took the initiative to ask her.

When several talented people were about to leave, Wei Chengji suddenly changed his tune and said with a smile: "Wang Talent is not feeling well, I will arrange a room for you to rest first."

"Xia Cairen, how about you take care of Wang Cairen temporarily?"

Wang Suyue and Xia Wanfeng were stopped and couldn't help but look at each other.

Wei Chengji did not arrange for a palace maid to serve him, but asked Xia Wanfeng to take care of Wang Suyue. Obviously, he had other considerations.

Naturally, they had no objection and agreed immediately.

"You should follow your father-in-law's arrangements."

At this time, Ke Lian also asked: "Father-in-law, can't we also take care of Su Yue?"

The smile on Wei Chengji's face faded, and he shouted with a straight face: "Go back!"

"Woooooh——"

Ke Lian was frightened and cried on the spot.

Wei Chengji was not surprised and didn't bother to pay attention to Ke Lian who was crying non-stop.

After he watched Wang Suyue and Xia Wanfeng go down to rest, he then warned several other talents: "Remember what I said before, and watch your mouth!"

Several talented people swallowed and spit, and then reached out their hands to cover Ke Lian's mouth in tacit agreement.

The crying stopped instantly.

Ke Lian twitched silently, with little pearls falling on her face.

Thousands of dendrobium beads are poured down, and thousands of jade are flying.

As she cried with her mouth covered, Ke Lian's expression became even more aggrieved.

"Don't worry, father-in-law, don't worry, father-in-law."

"We all know the rules."

Several other people laughed awkwardly, covered Ke Lian's mouth, and escorted her back.

Deng Weixian, Wang Suyue, and the burnt corpses.

Everyone was taken away from this place, leaving only a dark ruin.

Wei Chengji looked at the ruins and pondered for a moment, not knowing what he was thinking about.

Then, he sighed and led people away from here, preparing to visit Huang Shan's room.

Perhaps there were some clues waiting for him there.
