Shen Mo and Zhu Jiu glanced at each other, and their eyes turned away, neither showing a trace of excitement.

Shen stood silently at the gate of the edict prison, watching the last Taoist priest also be transported out and sent to the carriage, then nodded to Zhu Jiu and got into the carriage of Lan Daoxing.

As soon as Zhu Jiu waved his hand, the Jinyi guard escorted a carriage and slowly walked out of the Dongchang Yamen.

At this time, Chen Hu came out of the edict prison, sent them away with resentful eyes, gritted his teeth and said, "Look how arrogant you are!" He had apparently forgotten what he was like when he was arrogant.

On the carriage, he silently looked at Lan Daoxing, who was insincere and benevolent, and gently tucked the cotton clothes covering his body for him, and finally couldn't help but shed tears.

Lan Daoxing seemed to be aware of this, closed his eyes and asked, "Lord Shen?" ”

"It's me." Shen Mo hurriedly wiped away his tears and said softly: "Brother Lan, I am Shen Mo." ”

"You're here to save me......" Lan Daoxing smiled weakly.

"Yes, I'm late......" Tears overflowed into his silent eyes again, and he choked up when he said, "Brother Lan, you have suffered." ”

"Hehe......" Lan Daoxing slowly said the last sentence: "I didn't recruit anything...... I was relieved, and he fainted.

Shen Mo opened the car door and said to Zhu Jiu, who was following outside on horseback: "Hurry up and ask the best doctor in the capital!" Zhu Jiu nodded, and rode the horse first.

As soon as the carriage returned to the Fusi Yamen in Beizhen, Shen Mo jumped out of the car and said to the guards who came to carry people: "Be steady, be steady, don't be swaying." Looking at the courtyard again, there was no one who looked like a doctor, so he asked Zhu Jiudao, who came back one step earlier: "Ninth Master, where is the doctor you invited?" ”

"Why go out and find a doctor?" Zhu Jiu said with a smile: "Those doctors have no problem treating headaches, brain fever, and incurable diseases, but when it comes to treating stick sores and knife wounds, they can't catch up with our Beizhen Fusi...... They don't have that much experience. He smiled and said, "And coincidentally, our most powerful expert just returned to Beijing yesterday, and he is still an old friend with you." ”

"Oh? Thirteen masters? Shen Mo was a little surprised: "Is it really the Thirteenth Master?" ”

"Isn't that me?" A familiar voice came from outside the backyard door, and before the words fell, Zhu Shisan's rough face appeared in front of Shen Mo, and he clenched his fists and said loudly: "Meet my lord!" ”

"Oh, it's been a long time, Brother Thirteen." Shen Mo hurriedly returned the salute: "I didn't expect you to come back." ”

"As soon as I heard the Metropolitan Governor...... Bad news," Zhu 13 said gloomily when he heard this: "In order to see the last side of the Grand Governor, I came back to mourn in the starry night." He said with a hideous face: "I heard that Lord Shen is in charge of this case, you must find out the murderer and let us break him into ten thousand pieces!" ”

"I will......" Shen Mo nodded and said: "But now, please ask the thirteenth brother to do his best to save Lan Dao Chang, he is an iron-clad man who protects all of us." ”

Zhu Jiu also said: "Yes, if he can't bear the fight, succumbs to the East Factory, and bites indiscriminately, I don't know how many brothers will be framed by the East Factory." ”

Zhu Shisan nodded when he heard this: "Since you say so, I will go and see this Taoist priest." ”

Zhu Shisan was in the clean room to deal with the trauma for Lan Daoxing, and it was inconvenient for others to watch, so Shen Mo came to the lobby of Beizhen Fusi under the leadership of Zhu Jiu.

Zhu Da, Zhu Er and several other leaders of the Jinyi Guard were already there, and as soon as they saw Shen Mo coming, they pressed him on the upper seat, and Qi Qina bowed his head, and said loudly: "Thank you uncle for your kindness!" ”

made Shen Mo at a loss, bounced up from his seat, and wanted to help up a few people in front of him, but he was a weak scholar, and he couldn't shake these iron arhat-like practitioners at all, so he had to smile helplessly: "What are you doing here?" How did I become an uncle again? "The heart says it's still a 'mouse'.

Zhu Da, the deputy commander of Jinyiwei, raised his head and said: "Our thirteen Taibao are the registered disciples of the Dadu Governor, and you are the junior disciple of our Dadu Governor, so it is reasonable for you to be our uncle!" He said in a loud voice: "Uncle, please bow down to your nephews!" Then he took a group of Taibao to bow again.

Shen Mo dodged sideways, crying and laughing: "Where did you get this?" Saying that, he once again supported Zhu Dadao: "We are originally a family, and we are still brothers, so feel at ease." ”

"That's not good, the head can be broken, and the generation can't be messed up!" Zhu Da said with a stubborn face: "If you don't recognize our nephews, then we will keep kowtowing to you!" "Saying that, I want to take the Taibao again and kowtow to Shen's 'uncle'.

Shen Mo was completely defeated, and waved his hand helplessly: "You can call it whatever love is!" You can get up now, right? ”

"Respect my uncle's life!" Only then did the Taibao get up with joy on their faces and return to their respective chairs.

The silent gaze swept over the faces of the 'eldest nephews' in turn, and finally fell on Zhu Da and said, "Brother Zhu......"

"Uncle killed his nephew!" Zhu Da got up in panic and said, "Please call your nephew's cheap name!" ”

Silently rubbed the bridge of his nose, waved his hand and said: "I'm not used to calling my name directly......" said Zhengse: "If you really treat me as a family, you will tell me the truth, which one is this singing?" ”

Zhu Da's face darkened when he heard this: "Our Metropolitan Governor has a last word on his deathbed, saying that if we encounter something, ask you more for advice, and you will definitely help us, right, uncle?" ”

Shen Mo felt awkward no matter how he heard this title, but he still nodded and said, "I will help you, as long as I can." ”

"You know our situation best," Zhu Dadao: "Now Dongchang can't wait to eat us, Yan Dang is there to fall into the ground, if you can't help, we can only be eliminated by Dongchang's fanzi, and from now on, the Jinyiwei of the Metropolitan Governor will also become the lackey of Dongchang!" ”

Shen Mo shook his head and said softly: "I am a four-grade sacrificial wine, and I have no ability to protect you!" ”

"You can!" Zhu Da seemed to be more confident than silent and said: "Our Metropolitan Governor said that you are a real person and do not show your face, and you will definitely be able to help us!" ”

"It's the Governor again...... "Shen Mo said secretly, "It won't be Lu Bing fooling me, right?" But after thinking about it, this matter could not be easily refused, so he sighed lightly and said: "There are priorities, this matter still needs to be considered in the long run, and after passing the current hurdle, let's discuss it slowly." ”

"We all listen to my uncle." Zhu Da looked at the brothers and said to Shen Mo: "Say, what do you want us to do?" ”

Shen Mo nodded, and said with a straight face: "Don't take Lu Taibao ...... If the murder of my senior brother is clear, you Jinyiwei will never be able to get rid of suspicion. ”

"What do you think about this case?" Although Jin Yiwei has not yet proved their innocence, they are still experts in this area, so Shen Mo values their opinions.

Zhu Da looked at Zhu Jiu and said, "Lao Jiu is from the Six Doors, let him report to his uncle." ”

Zhu Jiu got up when he heard the words and said, "Uncle borrowed a step to speak." ”

Shen Mo also got up, hugged his fists at everyone and said, "Then I'll be out of company first." "And for a while, 'Uncle, please.'" In the sound of congratulations, he fled from the main hall with Zhu Jiu.

The two came to Zhu Jiu's duty room, and Zhu Jiu still invited him to take a seat as an 'uncle'.

"Let's call it an adult." Shen Mo shook his head and smiled: "Uncle is really not used to listening to it. ”

"Listen to my uncle." Zhu Jiu said with a smile, in fact, he was not used to calling a descendant uncle, so he changed his words: "My lord, if you have any questions, just ask them, I know everything and say everything." ”

"That's good," Shen Mo nodded, and threw out the question that he had thought about a long time ago: "According to the record in that book, my senior brother should have died of Heding red poisoning, and he was in a hurry, but do you have any evidence to prove this?" ”

"There's a way to prove it." Zhu Jiu looked in the direction of the Dadu Governor's Mansion and said slowly: "But I can't say." ”

"I know what you mean," said silently, "what else can I do but open the coffin for an autopsy?" "In this era, the dead are the greatest, not to mention that the deceased was a big man during his lifetime, and he couldn't open the coffin easily. After thinking about it, he said softly, "For example, test the remaining pills." ”

"Then you must find at least one pill containing Heding Red among the remaining pills." Zhu Jiudao: "This method was originally feasible, but the physical evidence was searched by Dongchang Fanzi, even if he wants to come back now, it is very likely that he will be manipulated." ”

He pondered silently for a moment and said, "Are you saying that now only my senior brother's body is real and credible, and the rest of the evidence is useless?" ”

"At least in terms of the cause of the Duke's death." Zhu Jiu nodded.

"Then open the coffin!" Silent and categorical: "If there is any problem, I will solve it!" He smiled at him and said, "Have you been waiting for me for a long time?" ”

"Huh...... Just prove it, and the rest will be easy. Zhu Jiu just laughed, obviously acquiescing, and hurriedly said: "There are still a lot of dragon and tiger pills in the palace, as long as the adults send someone to check it, they can determine whether there is an ingredient of crane top red, if there is, it is the responsibility of the Taoist priests, if not, it means that it is not a problem that the emperor gave the pill." ”

"The scope of the suspect can be narrowed down to people who have the conditions to come into contact with that box of pills." Zhu Jiu continued to confidently deduce: "That pill is given by the emperor, and most of the governors take it, but it is not something that can be touched if you want to." As he spoke, he spread his hands and said helplessly: "Even we, the cronies of the Metropolitan Governor, have no chance to see the 'elixir'. Ben Qu said: "In addition to the eunuch who sent Dan, it is the close family of the governor who may have come into contact with ......."

"How close?" Shen Mo asked.

"Dear people......" Zhu Jiu lowered his voice and said: "There are few people who can freely enter and leave the inner study of the Grand Governor!" ”
