Liu Fusu has been strictly guarded by Nalan Rongruo since the turmoil caused by dancing in Taohuawu, and her mind has already gone out for a walk. On this day, Rujin went out and returned to Nanyuan, and Fusu was writing the notebook sent by the prince Jiaer one by one. Rujin, the girl, took advantage of the gap in Nalan Rongruo's absence and quietly approached Liu Fusu's ear. Liu Fusu's eyes lit up, and he was so surprised that he dropped the pen in his hand.

Liu Fusu secretly put it on from his brother Liu Fuqing's regular clothes, the indigo robe collar and cuffs are inlaid with silver silk edge cloud pattern piping, and there is a white jade pendant around the waist, the thin body is like a polite son, Liu Fusu's fair skin looks like an egg shell can be blown and broken, and it looks beautiful in the sunlight, the long and dense eyelashes gently sweep the eyelids with the breath, the black jade-like eyes blink and blink exude a thick cuteness, and the lips that bloom like cherry blossoms hook a half-moon shape, gentle as flowing water, It's breathtakingly beautiful.

Rujin Yahuan put on a lake-blue narrow-sleeved gown, like a handsome little boy, "Sister Fusu, you are so beautiful!" Tonight's Lantern Festival will definitely attract everyone! When she said this, she simply looked up at Liu Fusu intently. Liu Fusu turned around and playfully flicked his finger at Rujin's forehead, "Let's go out quietly and don't let my mother know." ”

When night falls, the streets in the capital are bustling with bright lights, bright lanterns are hung everywhere, people come and go on the streets, the crowd is laughing and noisy, and the cries are up and down. The stalls on the street were full of people, and the ladies and sons all wore Lantern Festival masks and guessed lantern riddles in front of the lanterns. There were a few boats swimming in the lake, and I almost startled the river lanterns that floated down from the upstream.

"Little... Little..., Childe, look at the Qingqi man dancing on the fire on the painting boat! Liu Fusu and the two of them walked to the bridge, and Rujin excitedly pointed to the painting boat not far away.

I saw that on the top floor of the three-layer painting boat, on the fiery red lotus seat, the Qingqi people were in white shirts, dyed with green silk and ink, and the colorful fans were elegant, like fairies, and the elves of the water seemed to come from a dream. A round of spring moon in the sky opens the palace mirror, the woman under the moon sometimes raises her wrist and lowers her eyebrows, sometimes lightly Shuyun hand, and holds the fan in her hand together.

Liu Fusu and Rujin were in high spirits, wearing masks and carrying the lanterns they had just won by guessing the lantern riddles, playing with each other. She felt a pair of hot eyes staring at her not far away, and when she looked up, she found that the figure was extremely familiar, wearing a dark shirt and a white jade pendant.

"Who are you? Hugh is rude! Liu Fusu scolded the man who didn't know what to do. The man still looked at her quietly, like a hunter looking at his prey.

"Murdered!" The crowd was noisy, and the street, which had been bustling with activity, suddenly became chaotic. A group of men in black galloped towards the man with long swords, and the man drew his sword and fought them, and the fire burst into flames. Fusu was stunned, standing quietly in the middle of the street and watching.

Suddenly, a long sword blade brushed by, and I thought that my face must be ruined. At this time, the man hurriedly flew over and picked up Liu Fusu, and the man in black stabbed the long sword behind the man. The man snorted in a muffled voice, picked up Liu Fusu and fled against the wall with light skills, and the black-clothed man behind him was quickly besieged by a group of yamen hunters.

Because King Ning Xiao Chong was wearing a mask, the dark guards didn't find him for a while, and there was no way to protect him.

On the bridge of the big river in front of the prime minister's mansion, Xiao Chong, the king of Ning, fell down, spitting blood from his mouth, "Hurry up, go quickly", he fainted after speaking. Liu Fusu shook vigorously and didn't see him come to his senses, there should be poison on the sword, and those men in black wanted to kill him.

Seeing that the man in black was about to catch up, another group of people came out to fight against him, these people were the secret guards of Xiao Chong, King of Ning. Liu Fusu shouted loudly into the river, "Xuanwu, help!" Xuanwu, Xuanwu, help! The big turtle Xuanwu quickly swam out, and his head was stretched out. Fusu dragged the man on Xuanwu's back hard, jumped up himself, and hugged Xuanwu's neck while helping the man.

"Xuanwu, let's go!" Fusu gave an order, and Xuanwu swam away quickly. A few men in black chased to the side of the bridge, looked around and found no trace, and the man in black who took the lead squatted down and sniffed the blood on the ground with his hands, "Search around!" ”

Xuanwu took them to a long-abandoned courtyard in the Prime Minister's Mansion. "You're bleeding a lot from your wounds, what should I do now?" Liu Fusu panicked, afraid that he would suddenly die of bleeding, so he had to take out a pill and feed her a life-saving elixir that Nalan had been telling her to bring with her, which could cure all kinds of poisons.

Her mother had taught her a little medicine, so she calmly tore open her own shirt, and when she took off the man's shirt, she hesitated for a moment, and quickly cleaned the wound and bandaged it. Fusu curiously pulled down the man's mask and found that the familiar face shape turned out to be Xiao Chong, King Ning.

He was extremely vigilant, and he woke up all of a sudden, his right hand habitually wanted to grasp the sword beside him, and his eyes looked directly at Fusu. "It's you! His Royal Highness King Ning" Fusu opened his mouth wide in surprise.

Xiao Chong, King of Ning, relaxed his vigilance and asked weakly, "Where are you now?" Did the chasing man in black catch up? He could hear the Dark Guard's search, but he didn't respond.

Liu Fusu handed over a glass of water, "Your Royal Highness King Ning, rest assured, this is the abandoned courtyard of the Prime Minister's Mansion, and it should be safe." And I fed you a pill of my mother's elixir, which has untangled the poison in your body. Ning Wang Xiao Chong nodded, and communicated with the dark guard, so he closed his eyes and rested with confidence.

It was late at night, and everyone in Nanyuan was not calm. Liu Zongnan's expression was grim, and he sat in front of the hall with his wife Nalan Rongruo, while Liu Fuqing stood beside him anxiously.

"Rujin is honest, where have you and Fusu been tonight?" Liu Zongnan's gaze shot at Rujin who was kneeling on the ground. Rujin cried and cried, and she didn't have time to wipe away her tears and shed tears, "Fusu ~~~ Miss She~~~, she was separated from me when the Lantern Festival was chaotic." ”

Liu Fuqing wanted to point angrily at Rujin, "Why don't you little girl follow some young ladies closely, if Fusu hurts a single hair, I will only ask!" Nalan Rongruo was sad and wiped her tears with a handkerchief without a word, "Master, it's all because I didn't pay attention to Fusu, but what should I do now?" Liu Zongnan comforted Nalan Rongruo with kind words.

"Daddy, I'm back!" Liu Fusu saw Rujin kneeling on the ground and knew that something was wrong, "Brother, I'm fine, let Rujin get up." Liu Fuqing nodded, signaling that Rujin was up. Nalan Rongruo saw that Liu Fusu was covered in blood, and his eyes were full of fright, and he rushed up and hugged Fusu, "Fusu, how are you?" Did it hurt you? ”

Liu Fusu patted her mother's back, "Mother, you can see clearly, I didn't get hurt, the blood stains on my clothes are from His Royal Highness King Ning." When Liu Zongnan heard that it was Xiao Chong, the king of Ning, he ordered Rujin to go outside the courtyard to guard and prevent others from approaching Nanyuan, and ordered Liu Fuqing to close the door. Liu Zongnan asked Liu Fusu with an unusually serious expression, "Fusu, you said that His Royal Highness King Ning was injured?" What about others? ”

Liu Fusu saw that everyone was serious, and only then did he realize how serious the injury of His Royal Highness King Ning was, "Daddy, there was a group of people in black chasing and killing His Royal Highness King Ning at the Lantern Festival, and my daughter was watching the lantern riddle on the sidelines, but the people in black wanted to hurt me by mistake, and His Royal Highness King Ning was injured in order to save me, and Xuanwu saved us." His Royal Highness King Ning is now in the deserted courtyard of our Prime Minister's Mansion. ”

Liu Zongnan pondered for a moment and said to Nalan Rongruo, "Madame, this matter is important, don't let others know, I and Fuqing will go to visit." Nalan Rongruo nodded, and pulled Fusu to bathe and change clothes.

"Master, we found out that Jiangnan's accounts are these, I didn't expect the prince to attack you so quickly!" A man in black knelt on one knee to report the situation. "If there is anything else, please report it quickly." Xiao Chong, King of Ning, looked at the man in black, "Someone!" The man in black instantly hid on the beam of the house with an imperceptible light skill.

"Subordinates, see His Royal Highness King Ning!" Liu Zongnan and his son Liu Fuqing stood in front of the handsome man with a pale face. Xiao Chong, King of Ning, pretended to cough a few times, but in fact, the poison in him had been solved by Liu Fusu. "Miss Fusu must have informed you, this prince hopes that you can keep it secret, and don't let outsiders know that this prince is here."

Liu Zongnan and Liu Fuqing shook their hands, "Subordinates obey orders!" Liu Zongnan thought for a few times before saying, "His Royal Highness King Ning is inconvenient now, and he needs someone to take care of him, so it is better to let Fuqing stay." Xiao Chong, King of Ning, refused without hesitation and said, "No, this prince is not used to men serving." It's good for Miss Fusu to serve this king. ”

Liu Zongnan's face was embarrassed, and Liu Fuqing didn't accept it, but who made the family King Ning. "Tomorrow, Steward Liu will let Fuqing and Jia'er come to discuss important matters with the king. You consult with your uncle and grandfather, and no one else will tell you. ”

After Xiao Chong, the king of Ning, closed his eyes after saying this. It was late tonight, and Ning Wang Xiao Chong had injuries and had to stay with Fuqing to serve, and Liu Zongnan hurriedly returned to his grandfather Wang Jingtian and his son Wang Jiaer.

On the second day, it was just dawn. Liu Zongnan brought the prince Wang Jiaer and Fusu to meet Xiao Chong, the king of Ning. "This king investigated the disaster relief case, and the truth of the case was about to come out, but he was unexpectedly assassinated by someone." Xiao Chong, the king of Ning, said, "Shizi, you and this prince are like brothers, and you and Liu Fuqing are also like brothers, I don't know if you are willing to help this king complete this matter, eliminate traitors for the court, and serve the people of Nanyue Kingdom?" ”

The prince Wang Jiaer and Liu Fuqing stepped forward, "This prince and Fuqing are willing to follow Xiao Chong, King Ning, and are willing to listen to the dispatch of His Royal Highness King Ning." Xiao Chong, the king of Ning, consulted with them in the courtyard for an hour, and took out the account book collected by his right-hand man Duan Ming to check the accounts.

When Liu Fusu came up with tea, he glanced at it inadvertently, "There is a problem with this account book of Brother Shizi!" The prince looked up and asked, "What's the problem?" ”

Liu Fusu put down the tea, sat beside him, and picked up the abacus.

"You see," in just the first half of the year, 19,000 people were reported to the imperial court, 850,000 stone of bean grain were collected, and 2 million taels of silver were collected, but only in the Huyang area, there were only more than 5,000 people affected by the disaster, and 550,000 stone of grain were used for disaster relief, nearly 1 million silver taels? She turned her head to look at Xiao Chong, the king of Ning, and said, "Your Highness has a gap here, so you can start from here and kill them by surprise." ”

Xiao Chong, King of Ning, took the account book and looked at it, "Duan Ming, who is the county commander in Huyang City now?" Duan Ming replied, "It's Yuan Wang, and this person is the prince's Taifu student." Xiao Chong, King of Ning, pointed to the ledger and immediately ordered, "Then start with this Yuan master." ”

Xiao Chong, the king of Ning, looked at Liu Fusu approvingly, there was more emotion in his eyes, he had a plan in his heart, this woman is different, wise, resourceful and medical, suitable for being a concubine, and when the case is dealt with, he will propose marriage.
