Xi Ci is discussing with Liu Shuang how to deal with this incident, and the only way is to thoroughly investigate the cause of the death of the dancing girl. However, Wu Ji died in the palace, and that place is not something that anyone can enter if they want to, and after thinking about it, they can't pin all their hopes on Su Ren, they still have to find Zhang Guangchang. He is the absolute confidant of King Hengshan, and it should be him to investigate this matter, as long as Zhang Guangchang is determined that it is not Liu Shuang's doing, King Hengshan will most likely believe it.

The butler glanced at the door. Liu Shuang was very angry and said angrily: "Didn't I tell you not to disturb? What the hell are you trying to do? ”

The housekeeper hurriedly crawled to his knees: "The son of the world is angry, and the villain has something important to report, so this is ......."

"Say, what's the matter?"

"Su Zhonglang is out asking to see you, and the prince has ordered that no one should enter the prince's mansion these days, so ......"

"Is Su Ren anyone? Don't hurry up yet, please! ”

Su Ren also brought a gift, a bag of tea, not the kind he kneaded with his own hands. Su Ren is reluctant to owe favors, last time King Hengshan gave him so many things, every time Su Ren had a return gift, a bag of pastries, a piece of broken jade, in short, everyone's favor was returned, he and Liu Ci's family only had money exchanges, not any affection.

Liu Shuang greeted him in person and quickly asked people to prepare a banquet in the lobby. If you really count it, Su Ren didn't come to him much, most of the time the two talked in Cuixiang Building, and Liu Shuang found him. Today, Su Ren came to the door in person, and Liu Shuang behaved very formally. They bowed to each other according to the weekly rites, and then invited Su Ren into the lobby respectfully.

"Brother Su can come, this son is very happy." Liu Shuang had a genuine smile on his face, no matter what he thought in his heart, his face was very good: "Brother Su doesn't often visit anyone, and I don't come here much, I must have something important to come here today, right?" ”

Su Ren smiled, took a sip of the tea in front of him to moisten his throat, and looked up at the hall. Sure enough, it is the prince's mansion, and it must be imposing, and it must be pompous. In addition to Liu Shuang, Xi Ci and Su Ren in the main hall, there were no less than twenty servants of all kinds, and there were dozens of people waiting to be summoned outside the door. Su Ren sighed in his heart, the ancients' methods of summoning people were indeed extraordinary, and the little princes and princes were not much smaller than Liu Che's pomp.

Su Ren didn't speak, Liu Shuang smiled, waved his hand, and his own personal attendant hurriedly blasted everyone out. When all the servants and subordinates went out, the attendants respectfully saluted Liu Shuang and the others, and then slowly withdrew and closed the door with his own hands.

"Brother Su can say it now, right?"

Su Ren smiled: "Shizi is really spacious here, the place where I live, there is no place to put a bed and even turn around, and it is like a mouse hole to get into, and it is very uncomfortable to live." ”

Liu Shuang laughed: "Didn't my father give Brother Su a set of courtyards, why didn't Brother Su live?" I've been to that courtyard, and it's not worse than my world's mansion. ”

Su Ren shook his head: "What you did is useless, how can Su Hede dare to live in that place, in the lower is only a doctor of Guanglu, even if you add Zhonglang General, you are not qualified to live in the king's other courtyard, don't dare." ”

Xi Ci glanced at Su Ren, and Su Ren suddenly visited Xi Ci to understand that Su Ren must have something important. However, the words only said that Liu Ci gave him another courtyard, and did not mention anything else, which made Xi Ci a little helpless. As an old officialdom, he naturally understands that he can't ask in person, and if he asks about someone's itch, he may not even be willing to say the original words. What's more, this person is Su Ren, and they all know that this kid has great powers, maybe there is really something big.

Liu Shuang didn't ask, and only cooperated with Su Ren to say things that didn't hurt. Seeing that a cup of tea was about to be finished, Su Ren didn't say anything. He glanced at Xi Ci and said with a smile: "What does Brother Su think of my tea?" These are all kneaded according to the method taught by Brother Su, from picking tea to using water, which is exactly the same as what Brother Su drank in Cuixiang Building. ”

Su Ren shook his head: "It's not very good, tea is good tea, the timing is not right, just from this water, the water of Cuixianglou is taken from the mountainside, and the water of the prince is taken from the top of the mountain, although it is all Huoshan spring water, but the water of the prince is transported back just after emerging from the ground, and the sun is shining, it is called dead water, and such water is not suitable for cooking tea." ”

"And this statement? It seems that I still don't understand tea. ”

Su Ren shook his head and smiled: "The prince doesn't understand tea, and he can't even understand the things of the world." ”

"What do you mean by that?"

"Dare to ask the prince if he has been in the palace these days?" Su Ren looked at Liu Shuang intriguingly: "The king is sick, as the eldest son, he should serve on the side, but the prince has lived in the house for a long time, this is not the practice of being a minister and a son of man, since the king has not grounded the prince, why doesn't the prince go to see the king, although he doesn't say that he visits every day, should he have a little filial piety?" ”

Xi Ci gasped, he forgot about it. No matter how you say that Liu Shuang is the son of Liu Ci, his father is seriously ill, and his son ignores him. The Han Dynasty advertised benevolence, righteousness, courtesy, and filial piety, and if you owe anything in filial piety, even if your father doesn't blame you, the laws of the court can't tolerate it.

Liu Shuang was also stunned, and wanted to defend a few words. Su Ren got up and saluted Liu Shuang: "I should not be bothered and delay the prince to deal with the country's pragmatic affairs, and I will leave." ”

Looking at Su Ren's back, Liu Shuang and Xi Ci frowned. Since Su Ren has seen the problem, those who want to put them to death have naturally seen the clues, if this matter is stabbed to the imperial court Zongzheng, he Liu Shuang will not be able to eat and walk around.

Su Ren walked to the door and turned around: "By the way, forget one thing, the king of Huainan has already sent someone to visit the patient, and in the past few days, the prince of the world has also been more careful, lest there be any change in the king's illness, and it will not be good if the prince is affected by the time." "Throw yourself out again, leaving behind the two stunned guys in the lobby in a daze.

Su Ren walked for a long time before Liu Shuang and Xi Ci reacted, and the two looked at each other, trying to find something from each other's faces, but unfortunately all they saw was confused. Xi Ci is an old man in the end, and after a little thought, he frowned.

"Can the Prime Minister understand Su Ren's words?"

Xi Ci shook his head: "It seems to understand, but it doesn't seem to understand." ”

Liu Shuang took a deep breath: "Su Ren is very strange today, and what he said is incomprehensible. ”

Xi Ci said: "It's really incomprehensible, but there seems to be something else in his words, tomorrow morning, the prince should enter the palace to visit the king, and also pay attention to the people sent by Huainan, Su Ren's last sentence seems to imply something." ”

Liu Shuang nodded, constantly guessing the meaning of Su Ren's words in his heart.

When he came, Su Ren wanted to tell the truth, but after thinking about it, he still hit it sideways. Liu Shuang and Xi Ci are not stupid people, and they can hear eight meanings in one sentence. If they couldn't understand the straight from Su Ren's words, then no one could blame them. If Zhongji is killed, they are also stupid themselves, and they have nothing to do with him Su Ren. As an outsider, he doesn't want to mix too deeply, just control the overall situation, and save himself into it.

Sitting in the carriage, Su Ren fell asleep. I didn't sleep all night last night, and I need to catch up on my sleep today. When the carriage entered the backyard of Cuixiang Building, Huang Shisan woke up Su Ren. I entered my bedroom in a daze, and fell headlong on the bed again, and I slept until sunset before waking up.

Hungry, Lao Jia had already prepared a meal, and he just had a beautiful meal. It's already time to hold the lights, and the front yard is particularly lively. It is precisely because of Cuixiang Building that the lifestyle of Lu'an people has also changed, and sometimes they are noisy in the front yard all night, which is also the reason why Su Ren is reluctant to live in Cuixiang Building.

Han Qing came, sweating on his face, he must have been busy all day. After entering the door, he grabbed Su Ren's teapot and poured a stomach full of water, then wiped his mouth with his sleeve and put the teapot down.

Su Ren's teeth creaked: "My high-grade tea!" It's really distressing to be ruined like this by you! Fifty dollars a tael of tea, how can you drink it like this? ”

Han Qing sat down: "I have already arranged it, as long as he Liu Hong dares to make a move, he will be able to arrest him!" ”

Su Ren looked at his empty teapot, his heart was dripping blood, and he didn't listen to Han Qing at all: "Fifty dollars have been wasted, it's a pity, it's a pity!" ”

Han Qing said: "What did Liu Shuang say over there? Is he going to sit back and wait or fight back? ”

"My tea, Lao Jia, he will come and say in advance in the future, let me hide the teapot first!"

Han Qing was also a little hungry, so he asked Lao Jia to prepare a meal for him: "Don't pity your tea, I'll accompany you for fifty yuan!" Liu Hong plotted to kill the king, and he should be severely punished, how to deal with those two sluts? ”

Su Ren still regretted it: "Catch the traitor and catch the double, take the thief and take the dirty, the first person is not involved, the second is not acting, everything is done by Liu Hong, what does it have to do with others?" It's just that you know, even if you catch two people and don't know, what can you do? One is the queen and the other is the county lord, what can we do? ”

Han Qing snorted coldly: "These two sluts murdered their husbands and fathers, and they should be divided into five horses!" ”

"Okay, you are also from the palace, and you know the things in it better than me? Since ancient times, the emperor's affection has been no longer strange. ”

"Hey!" Han Qing sighed: "Yes, we have done everything we can, it can be regarded as benevolence and righteousness, and it can be regarded as my explanation for the life-saving grace of King Hengshan." ”

Lao Jia personally came in with a tray, there was wine and meat, and Han Qing ate it very fragrantly. I ate a large piece of meat in three or two clicks, and I didn't forget to pick up the minced meat that fell on my clothes and stuffed it into my mouth. Looking at Han Qing's eating appearance, he knows that he is a hungry person, and he will never waste a grain of food. Lao Jia persuaded him kindly on the side, Han Qing kept nodding, but his hands were never slow.

In the dead of night, Han Qing didn't go back, and asked Lao Jia to prepare a room for him, from today onwards, he Han Qing is no longer the confidant of King Hengshan, and Wei Qing has completely disappeared from heaven and earth. For this reason, Huang Shisan sighed that Han Qing's family has a big house.
