"Do you think Zhou Xian will write blood on the wall?" He snorted coldly, "Don't you forget that he was born as a speech official, if there is a grievance, will he not think of a way to fold it?" ”

That's right! Zhou Xian was already in the ministry before, and he was the official. The position of a speech official is not of high rank, but it is responsible for supervision and speech, and can admonish the emperor at the top, impeach hundreds of officials, and supervise the locality. As a speech official, you must not only be straightforward and outspoken, but also cherish your reputation more than your wealth.

If Zhou Xian has been wronged, and such a big black pot is buckled on his head for 100,000 taels of river repairs, there is no reason for him not to say a word?

This summer glanced at Lu Yi, but still refused to give up, and continued to take the lantern to shine carefully on all parts of the house, suspecting that the original traces had been scraped off, except for the walls, and everywhere and every corner was not spared.

Lu Yi ignored her and looked at the calligraphy and paintings on the wall.

"Huh?" This summer, I saw a round-bellied porcelain altar under the cabinet of the sullen household, and I reached out and took it out, and the sealing paper on it was broken, and I knew that it had been opened at a glance. She leaned in and sniffed, and the smell of wine wafted out, and there was something else......

Rolling up her sleeves, she reached into the jar, scooped up two handfuls, and fished out two packets of things wrapped in silk cotton.

The old king was surprised: "There is something hidden in this wine jar?!" ”

Lu Yi also looked at it.

The silk cotton was unraveled layer by layer under the lamp, and the contents were slowly revealed, just something black, lumpy, and debris......

"W-What is this?" The old king looked inexplicable.

"Ganoderma lucidum, right? Ganoderma lucidum soaked in wine," said nonsense this summer, "it can strengthen the body and prolong life, and if you drink it for three months, you can travel 800 miles a day." ”

The old king nodded "Oh, Oh": "Lord Zhou is very thin, and his body bones don't look good, probably because he wants to make up for it." ”

Ignoring this summer's nonsense, Lu Yi picked up some crumbs and put them on the tip of his nose to sniff: "It's spices, this should be Huoxiang, and ...... Clove. He sniffed carefully a few times and was able to confirm it.

This summer, I have opened the drawer of the vegetarian closet, and put some artemisia annua and some cinnabar in it. These things were not letters, and the people in the yamen probably didn't think they were of much value, so they didn't move.

Seeing these two things, this summer's heart moved, and asked the old king: "Lord Zhou has ever asked you for beef pith and cow fat?" ”

The old king said strangely: "He did ask Zhou Fei, who is a scholar, to ask me where I can buy cow pith and tallow." ”

This summer clapped his hands and smiled: "I really can't see that this Lord Zhou is still an infatuated lover." ”

Lu Yi looked at her: "How did you know that he was infatuated?" ”

"That's it!" This summer, he fiddled with the penny and talked eloquently, "This is a recipe for making rouge." Wrap the clove herb in silk cotton, throw it in warm wine, soak it for one to three nights, and then put the soaked fragrant wine and these two spices into the beef pith tallow in public, fry it over a slight fire, and put in the artemisia annua to make the color of the oil appear bright white. After the final treatment, filter the grease with silk cotton, pour it into a porcelain bowl or lacquer bowl, and let it cool. If it is mixed with cinnabar, it can be used as a red lip grease; If you don't add cinnabar, it is a facial grease for moisturizing the face. ”

Listening to her say in a rather orderly manner, it didn't seem like she made it up casually, Lu Yi said: "How do you know this recipe?" ”

"This is the recipe recorded in "Qi Min Yaoshu", it turned out that my mother tried it at home, and wanted to make her own rouge and sell it, but unfortunately the cost was too high, and the price couldn't be sold, so I had to give up." This summer sighed with regret, "In this world, it's sad to want to make more money." ”

She sighed and sighed, and even shook her head and sighed with the old king, Lu Yi had to cough a few times and motioned her back to the topic.

"The procedures for making rouge are quite cumbersome, but he is willing to do it himself, which shows that he has good intentions and is deeply attached to this woman." This summer continued to sigh, "I can't imagine that Zhou Xian is still a lover." ”

Lu Yi thought of the sachet and asked the old king, "Do you know what he likes?" ”

"This ......," the old Wang said, "The lowly position is to watch the hospital, and Lord Zhou has never brought a woman back, so it is really not clear." Zhou Fei should know these things, except for the few days when he was sick, he followed Lord Zhou. ”

"Where is Zhou Fei now?" This summer asked.

"After Lord Zhou's accident, he was arrested." Old Wang Tou sighed, "He is only thirteen or fourteen years old, and he is still a child at all, so he is locked in prison, but he is offended." ”

"It's nothing, it's just a government cell, and it's not an edict, that's whether there is entry or not."

Comfort him this summer.

Lu Yi glanced at her. The latter, unconscious, shook his head, and went on to look elsewhere.

The night breeze swept outside, a little spring cold, a little dark fragrance, and the moonlight was just right.

The wet green tiles, covered with fine and dense moss, and a few dog-tail grasses swayed freely between the crevices, until they were violently pulled off by a hand.

Xie Xiao, who was dressed in night clothes, covered his head and face, and was dressed very neatly, was lying on the roof of the Prosecution Department, frowning, chewing on the grass stems, and resentful of the moonlight that was obviously too bright tonight.

A dozen steps away from his feet was the prison of the Prosecutor's Envoy, and according to Yang Yue, Sha Xiuzhu should have been locked up here after he was taken away from the ship.

How to get in is a problem.

How to find Sha Xiuzhu and bring people out is also a problem.

Xie Xiao leaned down and looked at the two brocade-clothed guards walking below, both wearing indigo long placket armor and a bronze medal hanging from a small leather belt around their waists, and said a few words before they arrived at the prison, and the guards let them in.

Spit out the grass stalks, and he had already calculated it, and quietly climbed down the roof and disappeared into the darkness.

When he reappeared, the original night clothes had been replaced by a brocade guard. He was already quite tall, and the stolen robe on his body made him look even more long.

He walked straight to the prison gate with such a big grin, and said to the messenger: "Lord Cheng wants to interrogate Sha Xiuzhu and order me to take him there." ”

Probably looking at Miansheng, the two jailers looked at him and did not speak.

Xie Xiao coughed heavily: "Lord Lu from the capital is Lord Lu." ”

Hearing Lu Yi's name, he seemed to suddenly realize, exchanged glances with each other, opened the prison door, and shouted inside: "Lord Lu sent someone to interrogate Sha Xiuzhu, you are so waiting!" ”

The jailer inside answered.

Seeing that half of the plan succeeded, Xie Xiao was secretly happy, strode inside, and after a few steps, he heard a bang behind him, the door had been closed, and then there was a heavy muffled sound, less than three feet in front of him, and an iron gate fell out of thin air, blocking the way densely.

The way was cut off, and the way was blocked, but he was shut up in it.

"Ignorant Xiaoxiao, he dares to pretend to be a Jinyi guard!" A sneer from outside came through, "When Lord Qianhu comes, I will see you chopped into seventeen or eighteen pieces." ”

Xie Xiao didn't figure out where he had revealed his flaws, let them see the clues, but he didn't have time to think about this at the moment, and it was important to get out quickly. If they are caught, they are not afraid to kill or cut themselves, but it is another anger when it reaches the ears of the old man.

It was pitch black all around, and he took out the fire fold from his bosom and shook it, looking around for an opportunity.

At this moment, there were two explosions outside, and the ground shook twice, and then the messengers were heard shouting, as if there was water somewhere, and they were rushing to save the ......

Xie Xiao was still looking for a bracket on the iron gate, but the whole surface of the iron gate was as smooth as a knife, the light did not slip away, and he couldn't find any flaws, so angry that he kicked several times in a row, and the iron gate buzzed and didn't move.

"Fourth, fourth!" Someone called him outside the iron gate.

It's Shangguan Xi!

"Sister?"

"Fourth, get out of the way, I'll blow this door open."

"Okay."

Xie Xiao ducked to the corner, and after a while, he only heard a loud bang in his ears, which made his ear drums buzz. The keyhole of the iron door was blown up, and even the brick wall next to it was blown up, and a large piece of dust and debris flew in front of him, and a slender figure appeared in front of him.

"Fourth?!"

His brain was still a little cloudy, Xie Xiao was still in a trance, and he was found by Shangguan Xi: "This place is not suitable for a long time, let's go quickly!" ”

"Sister, what do you do, it's so bright! Give me one, I'll blow this floodgate open, and Brother Sha is still inside. ”

Shangguan Xi hurriedly pulled him out: "I have a total of three with me, and they have run out, let's go!" ”

"But ......"

After walking in vain, Xie Xiao was unwilling after all.

Shangguan Xi pressed his hand and said in a deep voice: "I must think of saving him for you, you believe me!" Without waiting for him to answer, he dragged him out of prison and into the night.

With these three loud noises in succession, Lu Yi looked out of the window, across half of Yangzhou City, looking at the faint firelight.

"Where is it?" He asked the old king.

The old king squinted and looked at it for a long time: "At the east end of the city, the location should be where the Punishment and Prosecution Department is located." ”

This summer also looked over, and sighed: "How much enmity do you have with Jinyiwei?" actually used Lei Ming Thunderbolt bombs, this thing is expensive, it's really not bad money. ”

Thunderbolt!

Lu Yi frowned, turned around and walked away.

"Hey! My lord...... "I shouted this summer, and when I heard the footsteps of Lu Yi had already reached the downstairs, I lowered my voice and said, "I guess I don't need to be humble, right?" ”

Naturally, there was no response, and Lu Yi's footsteps had been discharged.

This summer was very satisfied, ready to go back to the house to sleep, smiled and reached out to touch Ah Hu, and said goodbye to the old king.

When he went down the stairs leisurely, he suddenly thought of something in the electric light, and his heart chuckled suddenly, and he secretly said to himself: Could it be Xie Xiao? There's no need to make such a big fuss to save people, right?

Before she had time to think about it, she staggered downstairs, chasing the direction of the fire.

Lu Yi was only a moment ahead of her, and she chased three streets with all her strength to catch up with him.

"How can you catch a thief with such slow hands and feet?" Lu Yi slowed down when she heard that she was chasing after her hard.

This summer, he breathed evenly, without any self-reflection: "Fortunately, you are not a thief, otherwise it will be really difficult." ”

Lu Yi's face sank, and he quickened his pace and ignored her anymore.

When the two of them arrived at the Prosecution Division, the fire had all been extinguished, and only a few puffs of green smoke were left, which dissipated in the night.

It seems that the fire has been saved.

At this time, the sound of the explosion was only a stick of incense, and the fire was not small, so I didn't want to see the Jinyi guards this summer, and I had to secretly praise these Jinyi guards for their well-trained and efficient actions. I think that when the criminal department caught fire, it burned from a separate courtyard, and it took half a night to save it, and dozens of people imprisoned in the prison were choked to death by smoke, which was really desolate.

"Lu experience!"

Yin Xianguang, the deputy envoy of the fourth rank here, did not expect Lu Yi to rush over, and was slightly surprised.

"Lord Yin." Lu Yi meticulously saluted according to the official rank, "Forgive me for being presumptuous, just when I heard the explosion and saw the fire, I don't know what happened?" I was busy and wanted to help. ”

"That's right," for Lu Yi, the seventh grade experience, Deputy Envoy Yin not only did not dare to show half of his official authority, but also did not dare to slack off in the slightest, "There are thieves who are very rude and arrogant, in order to rob the prison first bombed the stable, causing a riot, and then blew up the prison door, trying to rescue the prisoners. ”

"Can there be escapees among prisoners in prison, and is there any need for lowly service?" Lu Yi asked.

"That's not true," Deputy Envoy Yin keenly realized that this was a good time to invite merit, and said with a smile, "Lu Shi doesn't know, in order to prevent thieves from robbing the prison, I added an extra iron gate a few inches thick in the prison the year before last, ordinary explosives are impossible to explode, and the robbers can also be sealed in it." ”

"Your Excellency has really thought it through." Lu Yi took a slight step forward and asked, "I wonder if you can go in and have a look?" ”

"Of course, of course."

Deputy Envoy Yin hurriedly let his origin come and led Lu Yi in.

This summer also followed inside, but was blocked by the guards, and hurriedly explained: "I am a subordinate of Lord Lu, together." "Because she went to Xie's house tonight, she didn't wear a fast catcher costume, but she carried the waist card with her, so she took off the waist card and showed it to the guards.

The guard glanced at the waist card and said coldly: "Lord Lu, as a brocade guard, how can there be a subordinate of six doors, the girl recognized the wrong door." ”

I couldn't explain this to the guards for a while, and this summer saw that Lu Yitou didn't go back to the ground, so he hurriedly shouted: "Lord Lu! Lord Lu! ”

Lu Yi was talking to Deputy Envoy Yin while walking, and he didn't hear her voice, so he turned around the shadow wall.
