Song Zhiyao felt that her body was very strained, and a whirlpool hit and sank. "Yao'er!" Liu Yichen was in a hurry, and a fierce man stabbed down.

The current kept rushing towards them, toward the shore. Song Zhiyao was hugged by Liu Yichen, her body was wet, her face was cold, and she stopped talking.

Liu Yichen looked at her body, and his heart was full of pain and remorse. "Yao'er, come back!" Exhaled heavily, heading for her mouth.

After a long time, Song Zhiyao slowly opened her eyes and hugged Liu Yichen with both hands. "Xianggong, this life, the slave family picked it up."

Looking at the scene where the two were so moved, Hou Qu and Xiong Li also cried. Liu Yichen hugged and kissed her, and the bodies of the two were close together.

They walked all the way, and the next morning, they returned to Tianzhou. I found the inn where I stayed before and moved my luggage out.

Song Zhiyao looked at Liu Yichen and asked suspiciously. "Xianggong, since we already know who they are, and we have given them silver tickets, why don't we do it?"

Liu Yichen replied. "Otherwise, just these evidences are also unfounded, once they deny it, it will be difficult to deal with anyone in the court."

Listening to Liu Yichen's words, Song Zhiyao was also anxious. "After tossing this trip, it has no effect at all, what should we do?"

Liu Yichen looked at her little face and hugged her body into his arms. "Yao'er, I have my own clever plan, return to the county seat, the next step has been arranged."

They hurried back to the county seat. Liu Yichen summoned the county order and asked. "My lord, what about Xiao, are you okay in prison?"

The prefectural magistrate replied. "Xiaoxian served her very thoroughly, giving her enough food every day, and the woman also asked for Buddhist scriptures, and I also gave her together."

Liu Yichen continued. "This is very good, it's just the matter of the smuggler of salt, these days, it's time to find out."

The county order said helplessly. "I just caught a few traffickers, and I was a wanderer according to the law, and I heard that the adults were kind-hearted, and they waited for the adults to deal with them."

Looking at the expression of the county order, Liu Yichen smiled slightly and shook his head. "Lord County Commander, what's the use of catching those hawkers?"

The words of the county order were Liuyichen, and I don't know how to say it. His face turned red and he shook his head. "The small county is incompetent, and I am really guilty."

Liu Yichen sighed and said. "I'll just go check it out." The county magistrate took him and went to prison. The vendors inside were in rags.

When they saw Liu Yichen, they pleaded with a pleading face, and knelt heavily on the ground, their foreheads bleeding. "My lord, spare us, we are just to make ends meet."

Liu Yichen walked straight over and slapped the door open. The men, with crumpled faces, unkempt hair, and bloody scars, were all over their bodies.

Liu Yichen looked at those people, snorted, and asked majestically. "How much salt do you carry? That's it, the law doesn't tolerate you. ”

One knelt down and pleaded. "My lord, it's just that the people don't have salt to eat, and they can't stand up, and without us, this salt can't be eaten."

Hearing this, Liu Yichen was full of surprise. "How can this be true? Those official salts are not too expensive, so you can't eat them. ”

The crowd pleaded together. "It's just that above, the salt sent is less, and we people want to go to the capital, but we are all arrested and beaten, and we are not allowed to say."

Hearing this, Liu Yichen also remembered what happened before. "It turns out that this is true, no wonder it is so, it must have something to do with the people above."

So Liu Yichen said with a smile. "You are good to stay here, although the sin is unforgivable, but there are extenuating circumstances, don't worry."

Then he closed the cell door and said to the prefectural order. "My lord, take care of them, I'll go see Xiao and have a few words with her."

The prefectural order ordered the officials to close the gate in a hurry. A few steaming steamed buns with white flowers were handed over, and the prisoners ate them in large gulps.

Liu Yichen walked into Xiao's cell and looked at her. "Didn't you resent the man after you stayed here for a few days? Is it just chanting and worshipping the Buddha here? ”

She turned her head away, smiling wryly. "My lord, the slave family cares about this, even if in the next moment, the five horses of the slave family are divided, and they will not regret it."

Liu Yichen looked at her pale face and smiled softly. "It would be a good thing if you could give us his evidence."

The woman blinked and smiled blankly. "The slave family has transcended everything, those grievances, I don't want to be entangled anymore."

No matter how Liu Yichen persuaded her, the woman just looked solemn and waved her hand helplessly. He muttered Buddhist scriptures in his mouth and shook his head.

Liu Yichen looked at her, looked at the shining Buddha statue over there, and understood something. "I shouldn't embarrass you, hello, take care."

As he spoke, he slammed the door shut, and from behind the door came the sad sobs of a woman. Liu Yichen let out a long sigh and returned to Song Zhiyao.

She looked at Liu Yichen and asked helplessly. "Xianggong, if we go to Cao Shilang's house again, it will be useless to startle the grass and snakes."

Liu Yichen looked at her, gently wrapped his arms around her waist, and stroked her gently. Loving her face. "The horse's feet will inevitably be exposed, don't worry."

The two of them, packing their bags, got into the carriage together, which was richly decorated. The goose-yellow ribbon, fluttering in the wind, is even more luxurious.

Hou Qu and Xiong Li, the two followed them together. Soon it was in Tianzhou again. The people in the city turned their heads one after another to look at the excitement.

Liu Yichen stood heroically in the car, with a vigorous demeanor. The entourage on the side shouted proudly one by one. "Your Excellency, you're here."

The big and small officials in Tianzhou City, one by one, were neatly dressed, knelt there heavily, kowtowed respectfully, and did not dare to raise their eyelids to look at people.

Song Zhiyao looked at them and felt particularly ridiculous. "Xianggong, these people, when they see us, they are like pugs."

Liu Yichen looked at them, and then looked at the people behind them, all of them were ragged, shabby, covered in dust, numb and sluggish to look at the excitement.

He thought for a moment and replied. "Yao'er, this is a natural thing, but if we want to find out the truth, we have to endure it for a while and not act rashly."

Song Zhiyao listened to his words, smiled slightly and nodded. After a while, their carriage stopped in front of Cao Shilang's mansion.

When the officials saw them, they didn't feel right. Liu Yichen jumped out of the carriage, knocked heavily on the door, and shouted loudly.

"Lord Cao, open the door quickly, I am the imperial brother of the dynasty, I heard that you have a clean official reputation, so I came to visit." There was a louder knock on the door.

Over there, Cao Shilang heard the sound of the door and couldn't believe his ears. "My official reputation is incorruptible? Where did this myth come from? ”

Cold sweat broke out on his head, and his heart pounded. "If they really found out about my business, then it would be too bad."

Cao Shilang hurriedly put on neat clothes, and his brain was running rapidly. "As long as you push those things back, there will be no more mistakes."

With a creak, the door opened instantly. Cao Shilang walked out respectfully, looking at Liu Yichen, his face turned pale with fright.

He said awkwardly kowtowing. "Hearing that the royal brother has arrived, the villain is very honored, which makes the humble house shine and panic."

Liu Yichen looked at him, and his flattering look was really funny. "Please, I'm just here to see, it doesn't have to be so grand."

Cao Shilang looked at their faces and felt that they seemed to be a little familiar, but he couldn't remember what was going on, so he could only respectfully lead them in.

In the innermost part of the room, there was a luxurious room, surrounded by fresh incense, and on both sides of a pink-purple silk cloth.

On one side, several maids, dressed in gorgeous clothes, greeted them. "The two adults have worked hard, and the slave family specializes in serving the adults."

Liu Yichen looked at them, as if he had a face that he had seen before. He sat down on the couch, took off his coat, and stretched.

The maid directly took the golden coat and said with a smile. "Brother Huang, if you don't mind, the little woman will wash her clothes."

Liu Yichen looked at her cute appearance and smiled and waved his hand. "She's really a polite girl, and you don't have to be too troublesome, just keep the house tidy."

They closed the door and looked around. Song Zhiyao looked up and down, staring at the watery eyes, and said with emotion.

"It's really a rich place, it's just more gorgeous than the palace, but these are all made of the salt grains of the white flowers."

Listening to her words, Liu Yichen smiled slightly. "Yao'er, don't worry about that, we'll see when they can leak out now."

After a while, a slender figure walked over quickly and lowered his head. "My lord, you and I once had a relationship."

Liu Yichen looked at that lovely face, and also remembered the wine fight. "You woman, remember wrong, it's the first time I've been here."

The maid glared at her big eyes and looked confused, clutching her hair. "Brother Huang, I'm sorry, I really remembered wrong."

Liu Yichen waved his hand and deliberately said with an indifferent look. "You subordinates, you must know your duties and don't cling to others indiscriminately."

Then the maid, with a wet cloth in her hand, knelt on the ground and wiped it quickly. In a few moments, the floor was clean and tidy.

Liu Yichen threw a few rewards to the maid in his hand. "Remember, that's how it should be, we will live here in the future, and we will have to trouble you to clean it."

The two of them looked into the room and thought about it for a long time. "What's going on here? Those private salts will not be hidden here. ”

The more the two of them thought about it, they didn't know what to do next. "Xianggong, hurry up and go to the courtyard, maybe there is a cellar down here."

Looking at Song Zhiyao's lovely face, they had no other way. They walked outside together, looking at the garden of thousands of purples and reds.

Fresh flowers and plants were all around, and the gentle wind blew on the faces of the two of them. The exquisite rockery on one side stands on one side.

The two men looked around for a long time, but they didn't see anything. Suddenly, a beautiful woman walked over, holding an oilcloth umbrella in her hand.

Her cheeks were so white, and her figure looked a little fat, and she stepped forward gently. "Are you two distinguished guests from the imperial court? The little woman is far away. ”

Liu Yichen looked at her, and the corners of his mouth smiled slightly. "Not a distinguished guest? It's just a casual visit, you're the lady's wife? ”

The woman gently fiddled with her beautiful hair and smiled softly. "Of course, it's just that I'm packing up here."

Liu Yichen looked at her and thought in his heart. "Maybe from this woman's mouth, what words can be said, presumably the relationship between the two is not harmonious."

At this moment, Cao Shilang came over again, and gently put the lady directly in his wrist, gently touching her cheek.

Cao Shilang smiled slightly on his face and caressed her back. "Madame, what's the matter? Isn't it good to rest in the boudoir? ”

Liu Yichen looked at the two of them, seemed to be very affectionate, and smiled secretly in his heart. "It's ridiculous to have a mistress outside."

Several of them sat together, chatting with each other. "Lord Cao, you are an honest and honest person, otherwise I would not have come."

Listening to Liu Yichen's compliments, Cao Shilang smiled politely. "Adult, the little one has gone through a lot of hardships to be admitted to this official position, and he dares not to be loyal."

Liu Yichen looked at him and said very kindly. "My lord, in this world, there are very few people who are loyal and upright, and even fewer people can stick to their hearts."
