Nishiki is warmed by the sunshine outside the window.

On the coffee table next to the bed is a bowl of warm lotus seed soup, which is sweet and fragrant.

Han Yunxing sat on a brocade stool under the window, concentrating on sewing a dark velvet cloak. The sun shone down on her eyelashes, making it even more beautiful.

Shen Lian lay in the bedroom of the Han Mansion for two days and two nights, and he couldn't think about it.

Except for scrubbing the body, it was the rough embryo Han Er who did it, and the rest of the clothes came to reach out and the food to open his mouth, all of which were carefully served by Han Yunxing.

Bang, the door was pushed open.

interrupted Shen Lian's smile.

"Brother, I've taken medicine!"

Han Qingtian strode in, grabbed Shen Lian's shoulder, stuffed his big hand, and four dark red pills entered Shen Lian's mouth again.

Shen Lian couldn't help but swallow it.

Then Han Qingtian took half a bowl of wine from the coffee table and put it in Shen Lian's mouth.

Tons, tons, tons, Shen Lian was forced to swallow the spicy wine.

"Han Er, I've ......"

The voice did not fall.

Han Qingtian pressed his big hand on Shen Lian's chest, and rubbed it with all his strength.

The medicinal power melted instantly, and the mixture of liquor volatilized into the body.

"Cough, cough, Han Er, I've ......"

Han Qingtian pressed Shen Lian and said in a deep voice:

"Brother, don't be careless. Master Cao said that the wounds of Taoism go deep into the internal organs. These pills are all treasured by Lord Cao, and I finally asked for them!"

Shen Lian was speechless, and only after a while did he say quietly:

"Brother, but I've already eaten fifty-eight...... I really can't stand it if I continue to eat like this......"

Han Yunxing by the window persuaded softly:

"If you feel that the medicine is bitter, I will go and make some honey soup for you. ”

Han Qingtian glared at Shen Lian and did not speak.

Shen Lian raised his hand, lifted the quilt and got up. Standing on the edge of the bed, dancing and dancing on the ground, he nodded:

"No, this medicine is very effective! I'm cured, really!"

Han Qingtian breathed a sigh of relief again.

Fei Yuqing and Bao Shihu, who were standing outside the door at the moment, had been guarding silently, and they both poked their heads in and said in unison:

"My lord, if your body is fine, let's go back to the Shen Mansion. ”

"Yes, the matter of private prison still needs to be decided by adults. ”

Shen Lian looked at Han Er's expectant eyes, and then at the earnest demeanor of the two loyal subordinates, so he had to nod and say:

"Okay, get ready, let's go back. ”

Han Yunxing suddenly got up and asked worriedly:

"Isn't that really good? Or stay a few more days and get fully recovered!"

Han Qingtian hurriedly snatched the cloak from his sister's hand, draped it on Shen Lian, pushed Shen Lian out of the door, and turned around:

"Sister, I'll send my eldest brother back, don't worry. ”

Shen Lian was forcibly pushed outside the house, and the three horses were already ready.

"......" Shen Lian.

"Brother, have a good trip! I'll go to see you again if there's something!"

Han Qingtian threw Shen Lian onto the horse and beckoned.

Fei Yuqing and Bao Shihu also turned over and looked at Shen Lian at the same time.

Shen Lian coughed lightly, so he had to flick the reins, turn the horse's head and gallop out of the house. Fei Yuqing and Bao Shihu saluted Han Qingtian with their fists and hurriedly rode their horses to follow.

Unexpectedly, as soon as he left the Han house, he saw Han Tong galloping on a horse.

"Lianzi!"

Shen Lian immediately stopped his horse.

Behind Han Tong, two other horses came slowly.

It was Cao Wuzhi and Ji Zhifu.

"Is it so grand, come and see me, the 'patient'?"

Shen Lian felt that things were not so simple, with his status and status, it was not the turn of the head of the Xicheng civil and military officials to visit him in a row.

Sure enough, Han Tong threw off his horse and whispered:

"Something happened! Master Ji and Master Cao, I have something to ask you. ”

。。

In the private small study room of the Korean house.

Ji Zhifu and Cao Wuzhi sat on the top.

Shen Lian sat alone in the guest seat.

"You look at this first. ”

Ji Zhifu took out a brief book and handed it to Shen Lian.

Shen Lian unfolded it suspiciously:

"In the thirty-second year of Qianxi Qixi, October 22, the Yamen Prison in Luodu Xicheng. The criminal Jiang Gan died due to excessive blood loss;

"In the thirty-second year of Qianxi Qixi, October 23, the Yamen Prison in the West City of Luodu. The criminals Tang, He, and Li committed suicide in fear of crime and died;

"In the thirty-second year of Qianxi Qixi, October 24, Luodu Xicheng Yamen Prison. The criminal Du E committed suicide in fear of crime and died;"

"In the thirty-second year of Qianxi Qixi, October 25, Liu Mansion in Xicheng, Luodu. Liu Neng, the chief officer of the Criminal Division, was drunk and killed;

“？？？”

Shen Lian was shocked in his heart.

How many people were involved in the tribute case, all of them died?

Ji Zhifu sat on the top and said slowly:

"When Jiang Gan was taken into the official office, he was already unconscious, and it is reasonable to say that he died in prison. The three robbers committed suicide in fear of crime, and what was common in the past can barely be said. ”

"Du E has had the heart of suicide since she was imprisoned. Unaware for a while, she committed suicide, which was the fault of the criminal department, but it was barely justified. ”

Liu Neng was anxious to solve the case, tired from interrogation for several days, drank a few more glasses after returning home, and when he had sex with his concubine, he died of blood fever, which only happened in the early hours of this morning. ”

The more Ji Zhifu spoke, the more his face turned blue:

"These deaths, if they are not connected, can be barely explained. But it's related to the same case, no matter how stupid this official is, he thinks it's incredible!"

Cao Wuxian sat with his eyes closed and did not speak.

"The day before yesterday, the official heard that you were also attacked, so he hurried to find Lord Cao to understand the situation. If something happens to you because of this, then I'm afraid that the official hat will not be able to be worn steadily!"

Ji Zhifu's face was gloomy and he looked at Cao Wuxi.

Cao Wuxi pinched the arm of the chair, and after a moment of silence, he said:

"That female assassin is the righteous daughter of the eunuch prince in the palm seal of the Fu Wang Palace. It's just that she doesn't belong to the Fu Palace, and the prince can't control her. ”

"She has always been a loner, often with surprising behaviors. For example, kill a few profiteers, or kill a few bandits. It's just that she has a special status, and the Luodu government turned a blind eye to her and didn't bother. ”

Ji Zhifu frowned and said:

"So, the female assassin was just a whim, and the attack on Shen Lian was just an accident, and it wasn't a reason related to the case?"

Cao Wuxian nodded and said:

"At the age of seventeen, she was already a seven-rank Dao magician, and she was extremely talented. There are not many such characters in her eyes. There are even fewer who recognize her!"

"Say something that offends Lord Ji, even if she wants to kill you and kill me, she will do it. In the entire Luodu, no one can control her. ”

Ji Zhifu's face froze.

Cao Wuxi continued to say expressionlessly:

"So the assassination of Shen Lian was purely accidental. It was just her murderous game trip, and for no reason. ”

Shen Lian finished reading the simple book in his hand and listened to the conversation between Ji Cao and the two.

There is only one thought in my heart:

Fuwang Palace wants to kill me?!

Because only he knows deeply that the Fuwang Palace is related to the tribute case!

Ji Zhifu didn't know, because the yamen was only facing a theft against Xiang Ayaji. The bandits are Jianghu people, and the planners are their own bosses.

Cao Wuzhi didn't know it, because he was facing a genius cultivator who had a backer and was favored and acted without scruples, and he would kill whoever he wanted.

All the phenomena that have occurred, all the evidence that suggests:

Fuwang Palace and this case can't be beaten with eight poles!

Nothing to do with it!

Everyone didn't know that the prince of Fuwang Palace was involved in the tribute case.

Only Shen Lian knows.

Then the matter becomes a dead knot!

If the truth is revealed, who will believe it? Shen Lian saw the privacy in the gray fog, only he knew.

What's more, speaking out, involving the Fuwang Palace, Shen Lian thinks that with the identities of Ji Zhifu and Cao Wuxi, they are not qualified enough to suppress it, and the volume is too weak.

And if you say it, it will bring about a catastrophe!

If not?

Then everyone continues to be kept in the dark.

Only Shen Lian himself faced the mysterious and unpredictable future.

"it!"

Shen Lian scolded fiercely in his heart.

He participated in the whole process of the tribute case and made two meritorious contributions in a row, but because of this, he was inadvertently involved in the whirlpool of conspiracy......

It's not a very conspicuous tribute.

As a result, Xiang Ayaji also lost the qualification to contribute to the birthday and was reduced to an alternate.

The Fuwang Palace is huge, what are you doing for this small tribute?
