Ye Qing, who returned to the mansion from Yongjin Building, plunged into the study, he wanted to sort out the intertwined relationship between Lin'an in the shortest possible time, and at the same time, he also wanted to go directly to Gushan to meet the Emperor Zhao Yan, and even wanted to go to the palace immediately to see the present life and the queen.

But now, the palace may be a little safer for him, but the lonely mountain ...... Ye Qing didn't dare to go easily, he didn't know if the Emperor Zhao Yan would directly ambush and kill him in the Lonely Mountain like the last time.

The last time in the West Lake Yanjia Courtyard, the Emperor Taishang sent seventy-four good hands, and now, ...... It is very likely that he has already laid a net in the lonely mountain, just waiting for himself to plunge into it.

The names of Emperor Taishang, Shi Miyuan, Han Yanxuan, Liuzheng, and Xie Shenfu were listed by him one by one, and then between the names, in the intricate situation, he unconsciously drew a variety of related thin lines, and the more he analyzed, and the more thin lines under each person's name, from the original one to many, from the original single to one person, to be entangled with each other like a spider's web.

Looking at the relationship web like a spider's web, which he had analyzed for a long time, he couldn't help but sigh slightly: Xie Fu, will it be the easiest breakthrough?

At this time, Xie Shenfu was a little depressed and had just returned to the house, and today he finally found out which prison his eldest son Xie Qubo and Chen Fuliang were held in by the Criminal Department, but when he went to visit, there was no trace of the two in the prison.

After asking all the officials in the prison, everyone shook their heads and didn't know, as if the two of them had disappeared out of thin air from the prison of the Criminal Department.

Xie Daoqing, who learned that his grandfather had returned home, ran out of his mother's room as soon as possible, and when he saw his grandfather sitting in the front hall in a daze, the hope on Xie Daoqing's face gradually disappeared.

She knew that her grandfather had gone to visit her father in the prison today, and even asked her grandfather to take her with her, but her grandfather refused, and now looking at her grandfather's depressed appearance, Xie Daoqing's heart instantly rose with a bad premonition.

Xie Shenfu, who came back to his senses listening to the footsteps, looked at the little girl's somewhat nervous, even a little disappointed, squeezed out a smile, and thought about how to tell Xie Daoqing that he had not seen his father in prison, but Liuzheng's voice came from the door of the hall first: "How can this be?" When I went down to the court, I already learned from Li Shangshu that he was in the prison of the Criminal Department, how could he be gone? ”

Xie Shenfu's face became a little ugly, and Xie Daoqing's face became extremely pale, and the first reaction in his mind was that his father had been killed by a traitor!

"Grandpa......." Xie Daoqing's voice trembled, tears kept rolling in his eyes again, he had a nightmare last night, dreaming that his father was covered in injuries, dreaming that his father was beheaded, and dreaming that his father wanted to see him again.

In short, Xie Daoqing tossed and turned all night, and fell asleep in a daze when it was almost dawn, and when he woke up and learned that everything was just a dream, Xie Daoqing didn't have time to be happy, and his mood quickly dimmed, even if it was a dream, but now his father was still imprisoned by the bad guys.

When Liuzheng saw Xie Daoqing's sad cheeks and red eyes, he knew that he had said something in a hurry, obviously Xie Shenfu had not told the little girl in front of him that her father had secretly disappeared from the prison of the Criminal Department.

"Brother Xie......." Liuzheng said with some guilt.

"It's okay, Xie Mouzheng doesn't know how to tell her the truth." With a hint of bitterness at the corner of Xie Shenfu's mouth, he looked back at the pitiful baby granddaughter who couldn't bear to look at him: "Qing'er......." ”

"The grandson went down first, so let the maid serve tea." Biting his lip and lowering his head, Xie Daoqing said in a low voice, then turned around and ran out.

She didn't know how to tell her mother the news, and she didn't know if her mother would be even more sad than herself when she learned the news.

"Could it be that my father was really killed by a traitor?" Xie Daoqing, who ran out of the front hall, didn't bother to pay attention to the maid's tea at all, and stood in front of the shadow wall and muttered to himself.

In the front hall, the conversation between Liuzheng and Xie Shenfu came faintly, in addition to the long sighs of the two of them, Xie Daoqing's ears also faintly heard something: "The Criminal Department will never treat people like this...... Either they were transferred, or they just didn't want you to see them, in short, whether it was Zuo Xianghan or Deng Youlong, it was impossible to do anything to them in such a short period of time, not to mention that even if the evidence in their hands was conclusive, they also needed Dali Temple to ....... ”

Xie Daoqing heard the end, and he didn't know which sentence he should believe was true and which sentence was false, until he looked at his mother, standing not far away with tears, looking at her quietly, Xie Daoqing rushed towards his mother like a milk swallow returning to the nest, and could no longer control the crying in his mother's arms.

The night in Xie Mansion was even more difficult, originally Xie Qubo was imprisoned in the prison of the Criminal Department, although it made the whole house quite anxious and worried, but at that time there was still a sense of security in my heart, no matter what, after all, there was also Xie Shenfu, who was the servant of the Ministry of Officials and the pacification envoy of Lin'an, presumably with his current status, it was difficult for the court to understand the case hastily, so no matter what, there was still room for maneuver in this matter.

But now, the two of them have been lost in the prison of the Criminal Department, as if they had disappeared, so that people can't help but think of the worst the more they are afraid.

People are often like this, when they are in a desperate situation, the negative emotions in the psychology are often easier than the positive emotions, so that people can easily fall into the association of a vicious circle, and even most of the time, the fear and despair in people's hearts are completely from their own baseless conjectures, and what is happening, in fact, has nothing to do with it.

Lin'an City is still as always welcoming the night and light, the hustle and bustle will not be affected by the mood of the family, no matter how many people in the city are happy, how many people are sad, everything in Lin'an City will not be affected in any way.

The sun rose as usual, and Wu Lie, who stood in front of the door of the Ye Mansion early yesterday morning and waited for more than an hour before he was able to deliver the invitation, was replaced by a jailer in the Imperial City Division, holding a token that he didn't even know very well, and after waiting for more than an hour, the door of the Ye Mansion slowly opened.

The housekeeper Tao Qian took it, looked at the waist card of the person who sent the token, and after confirming that it was the jailer of the Imperial City Division, he put a smile on his face and said that he was tired, and then let people leave.

Ye Qing, who had been playing with Xiao Zhongye for a while, looked at Tao Qian, who looked like an outsider, and walked over slowly, sighed and said, "You are the porter ...... who looks like a member of the staff the most I have ever seen." ”

"If the old man hadn't looked at his wife's face, he would have found a clean place to live in seclusion, how could he be blinded by you every day in your Ye Mansion?" Tao Qian has always been angry about being abducted by Ye Qing and getting on the thief ship, but now, even if he is allowed to leave, he is a little reluctant.

What's more, he is just a eunuch who came out of the palace in the early years and was sent by the Imperial City Division, even if he left the Ye Mansion, he was just living alone, how could he be so proud of being so pretending to be in the Ye Mansion?

Seeing Xiao Zhong Ye waving to him, greeting him with a smirk, the disdain on Tao Qian's face disappeared without a trace in an instant, and he happily looked at Zhong Ye who wanted him to hug, and some of them hugged Zhong Ye in front of others: "It's still Ye Zi and I kiss me, when I grow up, don't forget Grandpa Tao, remember to be filial to ......." ”

With a hint of ridicule at the corner of Ye Qing's mouth, he looked Tao Qian up and down: "Grandpa? Grandma. ”

"I ......." Tao Qian was looked at by Ye Qing up and down, and he was already uncomfortable, so when he heard Ye Qing's words that were neither yin nor yang, he instantly became angry: "You shouldn't go back to Lin'an, you are not in Lin'an, the house is too peaceful, you will come in a while, and all the will follow!" ”

After finishing speaking, he handed the token in his sleeve to Ye Qing, and said dissatisfiedly: "The Imperial City Division gave it to you, it is estimated that the one in the palace is looking for you." ”

Ye Qing took it in his hand and looked at it, did not speak, stood up and teased Xiao Zhongye with some reluctance, and then motioned Tao Qian to send him to the backyard, and he walked in the direction of the study.

Zhong Silkworm stood at the door of the study, and after Ye Qing entered, he followed behind and said: "No one knows where Xie Qubo and Chen Fuliang are, and besides, the two of them are fine, and their emotions are relatively calm, and they didn't ask who brought them to Dali Temple." I also made my own opinion, did not bring them shackles or anything like that, and placed two clean cells, and then selected more than 100 good people from the army of flower planters, and changed into the clothes of Dali Temple jailers, cell heads, and even some officials, which would not be noticed. ”

"Yesterday, I went to promise, have you ever seen Qian Xiangzu?" Ye Qing put Li Fengniang's token aside, then glanced at Zhong Silkworm, pointed to the token and said, "Remember, treat it as if you didn't see anything." ”

Zhong Silkworm secretly rolled her eyes, not so much that Zhong Silkworm was Ye Qing's subordinate, but rather that she was Zhong Qing's henchman, since Zhong Qing let Zhong Silkworm surname Zhong and named it, Zhong Silkworm completely regarded herself as the Zhong family, just like Zhong Cheng in the third aunt's tavern, she was also obedient to Zhong Qing.

"Then I'll go out with you later? If I had accompanied you out, Madame would have asked. Zhong Silkworm shrugged his shoulders helplessly and said.

Xu Han is in the camp, Jia Shi is not in Lin'an, Mo Xiaobao just went to Zhenjiang yesterday, Ye Qing was calculating in his heart, looked at Zhong Silkworm, and said: "You don't have to accompany me, just let the people of the Imperial City Division follow me secretly, I haven't visited Lin'an City alone for a long time, and I happen to be clean and clean alone." ”

"Isn't that right? Lin'an is like this now, you go out alone...... This...... If Madame asks, how can I explain it? Zhong Silkworm said with some disagreement: "It's better to be like this, I'll go to the camp ...... now." ”

"No need, it's enough for the people of the Imperial City Division to follow secretly, so if you are in danger, you can take a look at Lin'an City, and now who is secretly beating my idea, it just happens to be dug out together." Ye Qing was originally a little moved, but after thinking about it, he refused Zhong Silkworm to transfer people to the camp outside the city.

After looking at some Beidi documents on the desk, and then checking again that there was nothing important to deal with at the moment, Ye Qing got up and walked out: "I gave Li Lifang a pit yesterday, if he comes to me to settle accounts today, tell him that I am in the house, but I don't have time to see him." ”

"Uh...... If he breaks in, will I stop it or not? Zhong Silkworm asked with some embarrassment.

"He didn't dare. Since that incident, it is enough for him to remember for a lifetime. Ye Qing said confidently.

Because of the slap of Bai Chun back then, Li Lifang and Ye Qing had a grudge, which also made Li Fengniang implicated later, and Ye Qing came to such an unclear point now.
