Wang Chong walked out of the torture room, gave a deep salute to the two commanders, and said: "The old prince of Chengguo, the commander and the commander of the same master, Lord Liu, have found Huang Bingwen in their humble positions, and they have completed the interrogation, waiting for the two adults to deal with ......"

Zhu Xizhong nodded and smiled slightly, and replied: "No need, this king has long known about Huang Bingwen's attempt, and the saint has already learned the truth through the Ryukyu secret report, and he does not plan to continue to investigate, so I forgive his sins, and let him not dare to do anything wrong in the future, this matter will end here." Wang Chong, I heard that you are happy with your noble son, this king and Lord Liu congratulate you! ”

From these few words, it can be heard that the emperor will no longer have any interest in Luo Amin, Wang Chong thanked the two commanders, and prepared to release Huang Bingwen.

Liu Shouyou didn't know the inside story of Huang Bingwen's actions yesterday, and thought that it was because of the wrong intelligence that he took the risk to arrest Cai Dezhong, but there was something quite strange, why did Wang Chong take people to Cai's mansion? Why did Xu Linger dare to chase after the noon gate?

Liu Shouyou thought that Wang Chong and the others must have something to hide from him, and secretly angered them, at this moment, he still said with a smile: "Wang Zhenfu, congratulations, congratulations!" Let's go home and have a look. ”

At this time, Wang Chong suddenly found that Zhu Hui was hiding in the dark and giving him a look, and hurriedly saluted the two chiefs again, bowed down and replied: "Humble and clumsy, and newly-born dogs, give New Year's greetings to the two adults!" Thank you for your blessings, and thanks to your grace, I ask for your forgiveness because of my humble and lack of carelessness, which has caused trouble to everyone. ”

Liu Shouyou said: "After the confirmation of the celebrant Huang Gonggong, Huang Bingwen did receive a secret report from Dongchang, and there were some misunderstandings. ”

"The Emperor's grace is immense! I am grateful for the grace of God, and I will serve the country loyally in this life, and I will be stable and bless my people. Wang Chong replied.

Zhu Xizhong continued: "Wang Chong, Huang Bingwen was transferred to Dongchang as an errand boy in Jinyiwei to serve as the chief criminal officer, and in the future, it will be under the control of Huang Gonggong, you don't care about his affairs anymore, after the beginning of spring, quickly send Xu Ling'er to Fusang again, and there are many errands, all waiting for them to do." ”

At this time, Liu Shouyou entered the torture room and brought Huang Bingwen out, only to hear him fall to the ground with a plop, crying and preaching: "Chengguo Gong, the old prince, Lord Liu, have failed the cultivation of the two adults, and now they can't regret it, let the adults deal with it......" As he spoke, he lay on the ground and kowtowed a few times.

After watching his performance, Zhu Xizhong suddenly felt disgusted, looked at him angrily, and did not answer.

Liu Shouyou reprimanded: "A bold fanatic, you dare to play with your own official, let me ask you, where is the demon you want to arrest now?" ”

Huang Bingwen prostrate on the ground, stopped crying and replied: "The two lords of Qiyu, the humble duty is convinced that the secret report of the East Factory is correct, the criminal Cai Dezhong colluded with the demon Dao Xuande Zhenren who absconded from the palace, trying to plot misdeeds on the holy banquet, although the traitor Cai Dezhong is dead, now, the demon Dao is still active in the southeast coastal area, and his traces have been found in Ningbo, Nanjing and other places, they still will not be in Ontario, and they hereby ask for orders to go to Nanjing, Ningbo and other places to continue to handle the case. ”

Zhu Hui, who was hiding on the side, heard this, and secretly complained in his heart, it seems that Huang Bingwen still has to go back to Nanjing to make trouble with himself, so he shrugged his nose and shook his head at Wang Chong, which means that he should stop it quickly, but what can Wang Chong do?

Zhu Xizhong asked: "Wang Chong, Cai Dezhong's family members are all imprisoned in the Imperial Prison, what is the result of the interrogation?" ”

"Lord Qiyu, after overnight interrogation, I have never heard of Cai Dezhong's collusion with demons." Wang Chong replied.

At this time, Huang Bingwen wiped away his tears, glared at Wang Chong fiercely, and replied: "Lord Qiqi, such a confidential matter, Cai Dezhong will never let his family know, he besieged Cai's Mansion yesterday, and he also arrested people for interrogation, and it is true that as Lord Wang said, Cai's family members don't know about it. But according to the lowly investigation, Cai Dezhong has a concubine named Wu Lian, and his brother Wu Xiang is Cai Dezhong's liaison with the demon Dao. Yesterday, Cai Dezhong entered the palace to attend the banquet, he brought Wu Lian with him, after the humble duty caught Cai Dezhong, was about to arrest Wu Lian, Xu Qianhu suddenly appeared with someone, stopped the humble position, and let the Wu Lian go, therefore, the humble post hereby asks for life, arrest Wu Lian in the capital, and then go to Jiangnan to arrest Wu Xiang and the demon Dao, please give instructions to the two adults. ”

Hearing this, Zhu Hui was suddenly shocked, because he hadn't slept all day and night, he suddenly felt dizzy and almost fell down, at this time, the cold wind blew, and he couldn't help but shiver......

At this time, Wang Chong and Huang Bingwen both observed that Zhu Hui, who was hiding on the side, ran away.

Liu Shou nodded and said: "It seems that those demons are still making waves in Jiangnan, and the situation is extremely serious, please Wang Zhenfu don't rush home first, let's discuss quickly and deploy to arrest Wu Lian." Wang Chong, Huang Bingwen, don't hesitate, the prince and the official want to hear your opinions. So they came together to the tent to discuss the matter.

Zhu Hui was afraid that after Wang Chong went home, he directly handed over Wu Lian to Jinyiwei for disposal, and fled from the yamen as if flying, trotted all the way to the vicinity of Wang Chong's house, took a breath, touched some silver on his body, and hurriedly ran into the opposite alley, ready to find a carriage and horse dealer to rent a carriage, and immediately took Wu Lian back to Nanjing.

Walking through the streets and alleys, he finally found one, and as soon as Zhu Hui entered the door, he showed the waist card of the brocade guard, and said loudly: "Find your shopkeeper to come out and talk." ”

The guy in the carriage and horse shop saw that there was a brocade guard for the New Year, and he was afraid that it would not be a good thing, so he hurriedly nodded and smiled: "The little one has paid a New Year's greeting to the uncle, may I ask what the master has to order?" ”

"Help me set up a carriage and find an old style, this flag has urgent priorities, and I have to rush to Jinling immediately."

"Uncle, the coachmen have all gone back for the New Year, today on the second day of the Lunar New Year, the shopkeeper took the young grandmother back to her parents' house, and no one can really call the shots."

Zhu Hui was anxious when he heard this, and immediately took out a bag of silver, slapped it on the table, and ordered: "Go and think of a way for me, the price is negotiable." ”

The man was so frightened that he stepped back, and Nono replied, "This, this, the little one can't be the master." ”

Knowing that Jinyiwei's identity was very good, Zhu Hui sneered, and then said: "This banner is ordered to do an errand secretly, if you miss the major affairs of the imperial court, you can't afford it, don't talk nonsense, go and prepare a carriage for me, how much silver is needed, just open your mouth." ”

As soon as he saw this posture, the young man realized that he couldn't afford to offend, so he shouted loudly: "Young owner, young owner, there is a deal!" ”

In the blink of an eye, a young man came, his age was almost the same as Zhu Hui's age, after listening to the introduction of the guy, this young man was happy, and said with a smile: "I have long wanted to go to Jiangnan to play, my father has not been at ease, hehe, Brother Zongqi, if you promise to take me to play in Nanjing to Lixia, I will give you a car, how about it?" ”

Looking at the young owner of the carriage and horse dealership, he found that he had a charitable face, dressed in a wide and young dress, and looked like a tiger's back and a bear's waist, and he had the strength to drive at a glance, so it was natural to catch the car, Zhu Hui smiled and asked, "May I ask the son's surname?" ”

"The surname is Song, the name is He, the younger brother of Song Jiang in Hubaoyi, haha......"

Zhu Hui patted him on the shoulder and introduced himself: "Under the surname Zhu, Minghui, the general banner of Fusi in Weibei Town, Jinyi Weibei Town, I can meet Song Gongzi today, it is really a blessing for three lives, and when I arrive in Nanjing, I have food, drink, and accommodation, and I can play how you want." ”

"Mr. Zhu, then let's leave quickly, if my father and stepmother know, then I won't be able to leave." After that, Song He went to set the carriage.

In order to get out of the city before the Jinyi guards searched for him, Zhu Hui was anxious, chased to the front of Song He, handed over a bag of silver, and said: "Brother, we are all cheerful people, you take the money first, set up the carriage, you wait for me at the door, and I will go back to resume my life." ”

Song He pushed away the bag of silver and replied: "Brother Zongqi, you will be outside, when you arrive in Jinling, I still have to trouble you, please rest assured, I promise that nothing will happen." ”

So, Zhu Hui took Song He to the mouth of the alley, pointed to Wang Chong's house and said, "Good brother, you have prepared the carriage, go to the back of the house, hear my whistle, and pick us up at the door." With that, he whistled, said goodbye to Song He, and left the carriage and horse shop quickly.

Zhu Hui originally hoped to take advantage of Wang Chong's failure to come back, hide from Xu Ling'er and Guo Yi, and quietly take Wu Lian away, but at this time, Wang Chong came back suddenly.

With an uneasy feeling, Zhu Hui opened the courtyard door and asked, "Brother Chong, are you back?" ”

"What are you running so fast for? Why don't you wait for me? ”

Zhu Hui's heart was empty, and he didn't dare to look at Wang Chong squarely, and replied in a low voice: "Brother Chong, go and see your son, the little baby is very cute." ”

At this time, Xu Ling'er came out to fetch water, found that Wang Chong was back, and shouted excitedly: "Brother Chong, while the little baby is not sleeping now, hurry up and hug him." ”

Wang Chong couldn't hide the excitement in his heart, and hurried to the bedroom, where he heard the cry of a baby coming from the house......

Zhu Hui didn't find Wu Lian in the guest room, and asked, "Sister Ling'er, where is Lian'er now?" ”

"I'm making clothes for the child with the maid, have you caught Huang Bingwen?"

"I caught it, I heard that Huang Jin, the chief eunuch of the ceremonial eunuch, saved him, he is now the chief criminal officer of Dongchang, and he will go to Nanjing soon, to arrest Wu Xiang and the demon Dao ......"

Before Zhu Hui finished speaking, Xu Ling'er couldn't believe her ears, and asked eagerly, "Why is this happening?" ”

"Sister, I can't tell, let Brother Chong explain it to you later, anyway, I have to go back to Nanjing quickly, Huang Bingwen, a bastard, has to make trouble."

Xu Ling'er was worried that Zhu Hui would not be able to cope with it alone, so she hurriedly said, "I'll go back with you." ”

"Sister, those two maids are unreliable, Brother Chong's family needs your help, and when I hire a new nanny, I'm afraid I have to wait until after the fifteenth day of the first lunar month, and then say, even if you go to Nanjing, you won't be able to stay for a few days, I just heard the old prince of Chengguo say that you have to leave at the beginning of spring."

At this moment, the cries of two maids were suddenly heard, and someone shouted: "My dear mother, why am I so miserable......

"You must lie to us, you must lie to us! How can you be the sister of Wu Gongzi, no matter how you look at it, you are not like the wife of Lord Cai......"

"Wu Xiang is really my brother, he really didn't recuperate in the capital, and now Cai's house has been raided, except for me, they were all arrested by Jinyiwei......"

"Okay, don't say any more, let's go to General Wang and ask for an understanding."

After listening to their conversation, Xu Ling'er and Zhu Hui both knew that the two maids were not dead, and hurriedly pushed the door into the wing, only to see that one of the maids was still crying, and the other was indignant, Wu Lian was sitting on the edge of the bed sighing......

"Don't make a noise yet, what Wu Lian said is true, now, if Luo Amin is locked up in Nanjing Qixia Temple, don't ......think about it anymore if you have a dream of soaring overnight."

Before Xu Ling'er finished speaking, a maid asked angrily: "In that case, then why did you trick us into Beijing?" ”

Wang Chong, who was enjoying the joy of family, heard the noise in the side room, and when he saw Wu Lian as soon as he entered the door, he frowned, and Zhu Hui saw this situation and hurriedly got up and blocked her in front of her.

Looking at this girl with tears full of tears, panting slightly, like a beautiful flower shining on the water, like a weak willow supporting the wind, Wang Chong asked softly: "May I ask if this girl is Wu Lian?" ”

Wu Lian got up and said a blessing, and replied softly: "Slave Wu Lian greets General Wang......" As she spoke, two lines of tears flowed down her cheeks.

At this time, Zhu Hui's face was embarrassed and said, "Brother Chong, I have already found out that Wu Lian is innocent......

Xu Ling'er also followed and said: "Brother Chong, I have already tried Wu Lian, she is indeed innocent, what should I do with her now?" ”

Hearing that they all said that Wu Lian was innocent, Wang Chong immediately made a decision, nodded and replied: "In that case, Zhu Hui, you quickly take the three of them back to Nanjing and temporarily settle them in the Tang Daguan's mansion." ”

Hearing this, these two maids quit, they finally arrived in the capital, and they haven't seen what the Forbidden City is like, how can they be willing to leave easily? A maid shouted, "General Wang, what are you sending us back to Nanjing?" Besides, you can't have no one at home to take care of the confinement people. ”

Wang Chong said: "After the mediation of the eunuch Huang Jin, Huang Bingwen is now dispatched by Dongchang, and now, on the grounds of arresting Wu Lian and Xuande Zhenren, he has laid a net to search for the whole city, and the painter went to the Imperial Prison to inquire about the family members of Cai's Mansion, and is painting portraits of the three of you, painting shadows and graphics to arrest you, and if you are one step later, I am afraid that you will not even be able to get out of the city gate." ”

A maid heard the question and argued: "No one in the Cai Mansion has seen us, how can we paint a portrait?" Now, we don't look forward to entering the palace to serve Niangniang, General Wang, can you just let us stay in your mansion, anyway, we need people to serve Mrs. in confinement. ”

found that the two maids were reluctant to go, Wang Chong was not reluctant, if they were not present last night, the family would not know what was going on, so he expressed his gratitude to them and decided to let them stay.

In order to dispel the thoughts of these two maids who were out of tune, Xu Ling'er asked, "Do you know why I brought you into Beijing?" ”

Both maids shook their heads.

Xu Ling'er said: "General Wang has already said just now, Huang Bingwen, the criminal officer in charge of Dongchang, is what you call Lord Huang, he and Wu Xiang, Chen Yuanhua and the demon Xuande Zhenren, colluded together to plot misdeeds, I brought you into the capital, originally to catch Huang Bingwen, let the two of you testify; And now, this Lord Huang has turned against the water, whether it is the two of you, or Wu Xiang, Chen Yuanhua, and the demon Xuande Zhenren, all of them have become his mortal enemies, if you fall into his hands, can you still be better? ”

The two maids understood, glanced at each other, and at the same time knelt down in front of Wang Chong, shouting: "Master, accept us, we know that the master and the wife are well-wishers, and good people have their own good rewards. ”

Xu Ling'er continued: "Usually you speak your hometown, but we can't understand it, and we don't know your name until now......

"My name is Shen Yu."

"My name is Luoyan."

Xu Ling'er threatened: "Shen Yu, Luo Yan, you two must remember, no matter who comes to ask in the future, you must not say that Wu Lian has come to our house, otherwise, your identity will be exposed, Huang Bingwen is insidious and vicious, once you are caught, not only will you not survive, but you will also be harmed by the Nine Clans." ”

Zhu Hui pursed his mouth, thinking in his heart, these two are named Shen Yu and Luo Yan, no wonder they look forward to entering the palace every day......

Wang Chong said: "You guys get up, you can help me take care of my wife and children at home, Wang will naturally not treat you badly." ”

The two maids were frightened, but they were very happy in their hearts, thanked Wang Chong and Xu Ling'er, and got up to wash the baby's diaper.

After they left, Zhu Hui bowed to Wang Chong and said, "Lian'er and I will not forget my brother's great kindness......

Xu Ling'er pushed him, smiled and said, "It's long-winded, don't take your Lian'er with you, run for your life quickly!" ”

"Brother Chong, greet Sister Yi'er for me, Sister Ling'er, thank you!" Zhu Hui said, picked up Wu Lian and walked out.

Wang Chong sent them out of the door, gave his horse to Zhu Hui, and said: "Good brother, let's go, the sooner the better, I am afraid that Wu Lian's portrait has been sent to the Nine Gates." ”

"Brother, please take care! The brothers were ready, and a carriage was waiting for us. With that, Zhu Hui whistled, and Song He drove the carriage to their approach......
