Lingwuhou drank a bowl of delicious and hot broth, and then raised his sleeve to touch the hot sweat on his forehead. Looking at Cui Hanzhang with Erlang's legs crossed, he opened his mouth and said, "In addition to being rich, Benhou is still rich. If Brother Xiu'er's affairs can be settled with money, how can there be no one who will accompany us to drink soup. ”

"Sima Rufeng, as the secretary of Dali Temple, has the responsibility of reviewing and inspecting the cases of the Criminal Department, and they bypassed the Taikang Mansion to escort people to the Criminal Department, so there is not much room for us to mediate." Cui Hanzhang is quite helpless, and recently there are seven black ones one after another. A few days ago, the two masters of the ghost city had a decisive battle, the storyteller in the wine shop teahouse frothed at the mouth, the gods on the streets of the market, the ghost gun Ziyunjun shocked the world in a battle, and the last descendant of the Beihai Sword House broke the sky sword and reappeared in the rivers and lakes. Cui Hanzhang didn't care about these, what he cared about was that all the people related to Cao Xiang had been killed, the clues to Sima Rui's death had all been broken, and the situation was becoming more and more unfavorable.

Now it seems that the ghost market Sanfang dared to extend his hand to the students of Taiyuan, and Wu Fuzi was still too merciful.

Lingwu Hou finished eating, wiped his mouth, and then picked his teeth and said:

"The method of killing people and killing people is still a familiar formula, a familiar taste!"

Cui Hanzhang knew who he was referring to, but now he can't get the handle, everything is in vain, Sima Rui's death is estimated to be another headless debt, and how many headless debts are all scapegoats in the end.

Huo Guang and Chu Jiakang were still in the mood to drink soup, they looked at the two of them with four eyes, and couldn't help but ask: "Brother Bai, Jingxiu's mother is already seriously ill and bedridden, I heard that she only relies on a hundred-year-old mountain ginseng to hang for a breath." ”

"This matter can't be delayed any longer, and the zero confession will confirm Cao Xiang's murder crime, and let Brother Xiu'er give up his career." Cui Hanzhang's eyebrows were full of doubts, and after weighing it again and again, he said what he thought in his heart.

Huo Guang and Chu Jiakang looked at each other when they heard this, and couldn't help but ask: "If you want to be convicted with zero confession, I'm afraid it's a little difficult?" ”

"Think about it carefully, the Sima family escorted people to the Criminal Department, but what did the Criminal Department do?"

"Did our brother Xiu'er be sent back to Taikang Water Prison? Think about it with your brains, what does this mean? ”

Chu Jiakang's mind turned quickly, and he seemed to capture the meaning of Cui Hanzhang's words, and blurted out: "No one wants to take the hot potato, and the criminal department finally transferred the person back to the Taikang Mansion, which left room for the two families to turn around." ”

"That's right, the Criminal Department doesn't want to be used as a gunman, and I guess it's more likely to be Shulanxuan's side." Cui Hanzhang arched his finger in the direction of the palace, and the meaning was the most obvious.

"Expedient, the lesser of two evils, let's go to the university to discuss." Lingwu Hou was about to get up, but Cui Hanzhang stopped him and said.

"You, a newlywed Yan'er, should go back to accompany your daughter-in-law, and I will run with Xiaoguang Jiakang in this matter."

"Yes! My sister-in-law is a newcomer, and Brother Bai can't snub my sister-in-law. Huo Guang smiled evilly and agreed.

Chu Jiakang was also unwilling to be followed, so he coaxed.

"It's not easy, it's rare for you to have filial piety."

Lingwuhou stepped forward and patted the shoulders of the two little brothers with a look of relief, and then said with a straight face: "Brothers are like siblings, women are like clothes, the top priority is to fish out Jingxiu first, and put aside the trivial matter of children's love for the time being." ”

Cui Hanzhang looked at his subconscious waist as he spoke, and immediately understood, and then kicked him on the buttocks, and scolded with a malicious smile: "You really give you a long face, it's only been a few days and you can walk with your waist." ”

"Xiaoguang, you go and inform the back kitchen of Dashun Zhai, and stew the dog meat in the pot at night to make up for Hou Ye." As soon as these words came out, all the three people present burst into laughter, but fortunately, Lingwuhou was thick-skinned enough, but laughed at himself: "Benhou doesn't support the wall, just serve you, and the dog meat hot pot is all made out for Benhou." ”

In the end, the four of them rode their horses together to the mansion of the university scholar in Luming Lane, and the scholar Ru received them in the main hall, but they looked much older, "It's just right for a few of you to come, the matter of the competition show should be stopped, and I am afraid that his mother will not be able to hold it if it drags on like this." ”

"Ru Shangshu, you have to take care of your body, the Sima family can still force people to death, we are here to discuss countermeasures, as the so-called stay in the green mountains, not afraid of no firewood." Lingwu Hou looked at the white-haired scholar Ru in front of him, and sighed in his heart, the old man couldn't stand the blow the most.

Cui Hanzhang continued: "The post has been sent out, and a few of us are in Dashun Zhai tonight, and King Kang will be the escort to invite Sima Li to force him to comply." ”

"As for that Cao Xiang, since he can't open his mouth when he dies, let him beg for death, it's just Jingxiu's career....."

What a character Ru Shangshu is, although he is sad and weak at this time, his heart is bright, and Lingwu Hou and Cui Tanhua must come together to ask him to have an idea. It just so happened that Ru Shangshu also had this intention, as long as they could save their son's life, they would have nothing to do with it.

"How can Jingxiu be virtuous, I can have you running for him, and I thank you here." Ru Shangshu stood up and clasped his fists and saluted.

"I can't help it!"

"Absolutely never!"

Seeing Ru Shangshu saluting, several people stood up and stepped forward to support him. Ru Yu, as a scholar of the Ministry of Officials and a scholar of Guanghua Palace, as one of the four ministers of the auxiliary state, controls the promotion of hundreds of officials; His academic character is even more well-known, and his protégés and former officials are all over the world, so it can be said that no one dares to underestimate his influence in the court. Even the previous generation of Lingwu Hou Bai Juque did not dare to accept this great gift in a grand manner. Bai Yanqiu and Cui Hanzhang are both people who value love and righteousness, and it is natural for brothers to rush to rescue them when they are in difficulty.

"Jingxiu is a good brother who waits for me, and we will take care of his affairs to the end. When it comes to seniority, we all have to call you a Shibo, and your great gift will make us juniors lose their lives. Cui Hanzhang picked up Ru Shangshu and said with a serious face, and the other people also shook their heads like rattles.

"You are all good brothers of Jingxiu, and the old man will not hide it from you, as long as he can save his life, he doesn't want to do anything about his career. His mother was very sick, and for several days she was sometimes sleepy and sometimes awake, and she was almost tormented and out of shape. The old man was really worried that if he didn't come out again, he wouldn't have a chance to give her mother the last ride. Ru Shangshu's words were sad, Huo Guang and Chu Jiakang felt the same way, their hearts were extremely sad, and tears flowed out uncontrollably.

"Since you have this word, then our brothers will let it go. A few days ago, there were two old ginsengs from Jianzhou in Beihai given by the queen at the wedding banquet, and I asked Baiyun to send them later. "Lingwu Hou was categorical, and made up his mind to force Sima Li to comply, unless their family really wanted to give in.

"Uncle Ru, don't worry, before I came, my uncle explained that the new Taikang Mansion Yin is our person, and he must be kept for the show no matter what." Huo Guang stepped forward to relay the words of Huo Yunlong, the governor of the water division, in order to appease Mrs. Ru's heart.

Just as everyone was discussing the arrangement, Mrs. Ru in the inner room staggered out and walked out, grabbed the hands of Lingwuhou and Cui Hanzhang and others and cried and said:

"Our family is such a lone seedling, you go and ask Master Sima if it's okay for me to resist my fate, and beg them to let Xiu'er go."

A group of maids and maidservants fell to their knees, crying and begging them to rescue the young master no matter what.

"Mrs. Ru, please get up quickly."

"Auntie, hurry up, Brother Xiu'er will come out soon."

Although Mrs. Ru is the wife of the continuation string, she has always had a good relationship with Ru Shangshu, and Ru's incense is not prosperous, if Ru Jingxiu has three long and two short, it will completely cut off the inheritance of the heirs, how can Mrs. Ru not be in a hurry?

At this time, seeing the seriously ill lady come out and kneel on the ground to beg for help, Ru Shangshu's heart was like a colic, and he quickly ordered someone to help her up.

"Madam, Xiu'er will be back tomorrow, you have to take care of yourself and wait for him."

Mrs. Ru muttered Xiu'er Xiu'er, and was helped back to rest in a daze. It's just that the pitiful look just now made Cui Hanzhang sad, he seemed to see his grandmother back then, still reading his name when she was dying, and finally passed away with regret. Joys and sorrows are the poison of the world, destroying the soft heart over and over again.

"That's it! That's it! Children and grandchildren are debt collectors! ”

Before leaving, Ru Shangshu wrote a handwritten letter for Lingwuhou to carry, saying that it was handed over to the Sima family. Although I don't know what Ru Shangshu promised to the Sima family, they all understand that this is a helpless compromise, since the saint has given the two families room to turn around, the Ru Mansion must first help people build a ladder to come down, otherwise the Sima family will definitely not let go. thinks that he Ru Ju has a bright and upright life, and in the end, he will bow his head and bend his waist for the sake of future generations.

The sky gradually darkened, and the four soldiers divided into two ways, Lingwu Hou and Huo Guang went to Taikang Mansion to arrange criminal law matters, and Cui Hanzhang took Chu Jiakang to pick up His Royal Highness King Kang.

The strict garrison in King Kang's mansion surprised him, the outer black dragon army armor was covered, and the inner courtyard was the Motuo warrior who was strong and stubborn, and the bright full moon scimitar reflected the torch light, Xiao Liu led the way in front of the two into the hall, and the three of them sat down in the main hall, Cui Hanzhang said: "The weather in the prince's mansion is extraordinary, and it is also the first time Cui has come to the door, and it is not a tribute to the thin courtesy." Chu Jiakang handed the sandalwood box he was holding in his hand to Xiao Liu.

"The scholar speaks tactfully, and he does not hide that Brother Hanzhang is in extraordinary times, and the mansion is heavily guarded and is forced to do so." King Kang did not hide it and told the truth.

When Cui Hanzhang was in the polo club, he was able to deduce some things with clues, and when he saw the guards inside and outside when he entered the door just now, he already understood a little bit in his heart, and it seemed that King Kang had really found out something. couldn't help but smile and said: "Life is not satisfactory, why not rely on each other." Tonight, I also ask His Royal Highness King Kang to be a guarantee, and ask the Sima family to raise his noble hand and let my brother Ru Jingxiu take a horse. ”

King Kang saw that he went straight to the point, he was a cheerful person, and smiled. At noon, he received a joint post from the Lingwu Marquis Mansion and Xiaolian Village, and he already had a plan in his heart, although this matter was tricky, but fortunately, there was still room for operation.

Speaking of which, he inherited Cui Hanzhang's favor, if it weren't for him reminding the polo club of the suspicious case of falling from the horse through Lingwuhou, I'm afraid King Kang would still be kept in the dark. Later, he secretly investigated Shunteng and found out about Xu Guanzi, the editor of the Hanlin Academy, and combined with the re-screened Motuotiange's action route after returning to Beijing, he figured out the conspiracy of Shangyang Palace to secretly use the princess Chu to harm the flesh and blood in Motuotiange's abdomen. King Kang has always had clear grievances, and based on this alone, he owes Cui Hanzhang an adult invitation.

Although the princess Chu cried out in tears afterwards, she kept saying that she was being used and didn't know that Tiange's sister was pregnant, and she even swore that if she had the slightest intention of harming the prince's heirs, she would call the sky to fight five thunders. King Kang was suffering from the lack of real evidence, and he was also afraid of the Chu clan's power in Chuzhou, so he finally forgave her. But the husband and wife have a gap in their hearts, so it is difficult to really trust, and that night the guards inside and outside the palace were all taken away by the Black Dragon Army for interrogation and torture, and they were cleaned and replaced afterwards.

King Kang couldn't sleep late at night, got up and paced in the courtyard to review the whole thing in his mind, one is that the noble man in Shangyang Palace is really thoughtful and vicious, playing with many chess pieces between applause, it seems that they are all random and can't be hit, but in fact, as long as the two clues are connected and sorted out, you will understand that there is a lot of mystery in it, and it can be said that the intention is far-reaching, which is really creepy. King Kang asked himself that he was used to intrigues and tricks in the Northern Expedition battlefield, but he was really ashamed of the harem battle that calculated people's hearts and stirred up hatred. The second is that Cui Hanzhang and Lingwuhou can only be friends, and they must not be offended. Regardless of whether the two of them unintentionally broke through or noticed the clues, now it seems that the Lingwu Marquis Mansion and Xiaolianzhuang have become a force to be reckoned with after the union, and there is the support of the old ministers of Chili Street and Luming Lane behind them, so it is impossible for all parties to ignore them.
