Hong Quan didn't dare to hide it anymore, and poured beans into the bamboo bucket and said it all, "Back to Niangniang's words, Imperial Physician Liu came a moment earlier than Niangniang, and sent two bottles of Crane Year tribute wine to the slave, and then said that he had a comradeship with Imperial Physician Jin, and now that he had committed something, he was very sad in his heart, and wanted to see him again, but the slave saw that he was telling him sincerely, so he allowed him to go in." ”

Comradeship? Ling Ruo sneered from the bottom of his heart when he heard this, if it wasn't for Imperial Doctor Liu's framing, how could Imperial Doctor Jin end up like this, but now he remembered what kind of friendship among his comrades, it was really ridiculous.

Compared to this, she was more concerned about another matter, "Is Imperial Doctor Liu gone at this moment?" ”

"The minion didn't see him come out, thinking he was still in the dungeon." Speaking of this, Hong Quan said in a mournful voice: "The slave knows that Imperial Doctor Jin is a repeat offender, and he shouldn't let people follow his opinions, but the slave saw that Imperial Doctor Liu was sincere and sincere, and he couldn't bear it, so he agreed, begging Niangniang not to tell the emperor." ”

Once this matter reached Yin Zhen's ears, he, the head of the Prudential Criminal Division, had to walk around without eating.

Yang Hai said unceremoniously on the side: "Gonggong Hong is afraid that it is for the sake of the Crane Year tribute wine that Imperial Doctor Liu is allowed to enter." ”

Hong Quanquan, who said this sentence, couldn't hold it all over, rubbed his hands and said embarrassedly: "This...... This ......"

Ling Ruo smiled slightly and said, "Gonggong Hong doesn't have to feel embarrassed, it's normal for people to be good." By the way, there are a few bottles of Jiuyu Spring Wine sent by the Internal Affairs Office in the main palace, and according to legend, this wine was listed as a tribute wine in the Eastern Han Dynasty, not to mention the long history, and the taste is more mellow than the Crane Year tribute wine. It's a pity that the palace doesn't like to drink, so it has been put there and never moved. ”

"How does this make the minions dare not accept it." Although Hong Quan said that he didn't dare to accept it, there was a hint of longing in his eyes, and it was always difficult to maintain calm in the face of what he liked. But this is exactly what Ling Ruo needs, "The sword is matched with a hero, and the wine naturally has to fall into the hands of those who know how to taste it to make the best use of it, so Gonggong Hong should not shirk it anymore." ”

Hong Quan actually wanted to excuse himself, Jiuyu Spring Wine, the first tribute wine throughout the ages, he didn't know how long he had been greedy, but unfortunately he had never had the opportunity to taste it, and now he was willing in every way, only to see him suppress the joy, and said with a slight twist: "That slave is disrespectful, thank you Niangniang for your grace." ”

Seeing that Hong Quan had eaten this bait, Ling Ruo didn't bother to beat around the bush again, and said: "I am not satisfied with Grandpa Hong, this palace came tonight to see Imperial Doctor Jin, but this matter is not wanted by others, especially Imperial Doctor Liu." ”

"I don't know why Niangniang saw Imperial Doctor Jin?" Hong Quan asked cautiously, this Imperial Doctor Jin poisoned and murdered the third elder brother, the crime is extremely heinous, the emperor has already spoken, if he does not recruit the main messenger behind the scenes, he will use torture, how can so many people want to see him in the past two days. Concubine Hui and Concubine Jin came yesterday, and today it was Imperial Doctor Liu, and now it is Concubine Xi, which is really weird.

Ling Ruo pursed his lips and was silent, but Yang Hai said: "Gonggong Hong is so lenient, do you even have to explain to you what Concubine Xi Niangniang does?" ”

In terms of grade, Yang Hai is not as good as Hong Quan, but now that Concubine Xi is in front of him, how could Hong Quan be stupid enough to use the grade to suppress Yang Hai, it is because he said to Ling Ruo in fear: "The slave does not dare." ”

Ling Ruo waved his hand politely and said, "It's okay, it's because there are some things in this palace that I don't understand and I want to ask Imperial Doctor Jin, so I have to trouble Gonggong Hong to be accommodating." ”

Hong Quan hurriedly took the opportunity to go downhill, "The slave can save it, but now Imperial Doctor Liu is still inside, and Niangniang said that she doesn't want Imperial Doctor Liu to know that you have come, so I am afraid that I will have to be wronged and wait for a while." ”

Ling Ruo lowered his head and thought for a moment and said, "Is there a dark room in the dungeon?" Seeing Hong Quan nodding, she said again: "Then bother Father-in-law Hong to take the palace to the dark room." ”

"Yes." This time, Hong Quanxue was obedient, he didn't ask much about what he wanted, and he didn't have an answer when he asked left and right, because the lights in the Shen Penal Division were unknown, unlike other places, there were street lights along the road, and Hong Quan held a palace lamp in front to guide the way.

Ling Ruo and Yang Hai followed Hong Quan around and around, all the way down, and all the palace people they met on the way all bowed their heads to avoid. As he gradually deepened, after entering the tunnel, the road became narrower and narrower, and it could only be passed by one person at the back, and it was so hot and stuffy that Ling Ruogang felt stuffy in his chest after staying for a while, and his steps couldn't help but slow down.

Yang Hai discovered that Ling Ruo was wrong in time, and stopped and said with concern: "Master, how are you, do you feel uncomfortable?" ”

"Hongu is a little dizzy." The air in the tunnel was turbid, and after resting for a while, Ling Ruo not only didn't feel comfortable, but his chest became even tighter, as if he had pressed a boulder.

Hong Quan, who was walking in front, hurriedly turned around, took out a small flat porcelain bottle from his sleeve and put it under Ling Ruo's nose, and said earnestly: "Niangniang, take a deep breath and take a look." ”

Ling Ruo inhaled it as he said, and suddenly a cool mint breath penetrated into his nose, which made his mind cold, and the boredom in his chest also dispelled a lot.

Hong Quan saw Ling Ruo's face and knew that this thing was useful, and said softly: "The air in the tunnel is turbid, and it is hot in midsummer right now, Niangniang is new to it, it must be difficult to adapt, this bottle is peppermint oil, which is most suitable for refreshing the mind, driving away stuffiness and turbidity, Niangniang holds it in her hand, and smells it when she feels uncomfortable, she should feel much better." Hold on a little longer, and soon you'll be in the dark room, where there are vents, and it will be much better than here. ”

Ling Ruo took the porcelain vase and said, "Thank you Gonggong Hong." ”

After walking like this for a while, there was a little light in front of me, and at the same time, I faintly heard a voice coming from the front, which was a bit like the voice of Imperial Doctor Liu, and it seemed that the dungeon had arrived.

Thinking like this, he saw Hong Quan flashing to the side, and at the same time pushing his hand hard somewhere, an inconspicuous stone door suddenly opened, and after Ling Ruo walked in, he found that it was a dark room, saying that it was small because it was only a square square circle, and there was nothing but a small table and a few stools, which was extremely simple. However, it is in this simple dark room that there is a picture of a peacock, although it is not a famous masterpiece, but it is also lifelike, showing the proud and beautiful side of the peacock to the fullest.

Ling Ruo stared at the peacock picture for a few moments, then said with a smile: "It seems that there is another mystery behind this picture. ”

"The mother is wise." Hong Quan confessed, stepped on the stool and stood up, took off the peacock picture, and there was indeed a loose wall tile behind it, which could be taken down with a slight pull, revealing a one-foot-long narrow hole, only to see Hong Quan pointing to the hole and whispering: "Niangniang, you can see the scene in the prison from here, but if the sound is loud here, the prison can also be heard, and the slave will go out first." ”

"The palace knows that there is a father-in-law of Lao Hong." Ling Ruo said politely, and after Hong Quan left, he hurriedly came to the cave and looked at the situation in the dungeon.
