That night, on their way back, they were attacked several more times.

However, Du Ren had already prepared, and with the help of the people from Dali Temple, none of the four of them were injured, but they caught a few more assassins.

Until they returned to the Hou Mansion, Gu Caiwei hurriedly took out a few small sachets and gave them to the people who escorted them back. "I'm in a hurry, and I don't have any good things to give you here. There are also some bread that I made before, so let's satisfy your hunger when you are hungry! ”

After thanking the guards, they accepted the sachets.

Then the four of them went into the Hou Mansion happily.

By this time, it was already midnight. Originally, they should have gone to bed at this time, but because of this incident, everyone was highly nervous, and they have been delaying until now to relax a little.

But Du Yi and Gu Tianyuan are no longer very sleepy. Du Yi pulled Gu Tianyuan alive and dead: "What kind of medicine did you all give to the surnamed Wu?" I'm standing next to you, but I don't see anything! ”

Of course, this kind of technique can only be seen clearly by us insiders. If you laymen see it, then how will we mix it up in the future? Gu Tianyuan triumphantly declared.

Du Yi suddenly became more curious, and pulled him alive and let him say. On the one hand, he was still crying sweetly and greasyly: "Little uncle, just tell me!" Uncle ......"

Gu Tianyuan was called uncomfortable.

"You guy is just like your father, you have nothing to do, you are either a traitor or a thief!" He hurriedly rubbed his arm and turned around, "Okay, let's go back and rest!" Tomorrow, my brother-in-law has a tough battle to fight. I'll tell you about the things that Sister Ah and I did. ”

"No! Uncle, tell me now, I want to know now! Gu Tianyuan hurriedly shouted, and his little hand grabbed his sleeve alive.

The two of them just pulled and pulled away.

When the two little guys walked away, Gu Caiwei finally breathed a sigh of relief.

She quickly patted her chest: "It's really scared to death today!" But how did you manage to get his wounds to be considered suicide? ”

"I've studied various ways to kill myself before." Du Junqing replied, "At one time, I didn't want to live, but I didn't want to die alone, so I thought I would just pull a few people I hated down to cushion my back." But how can I convince others that they are doing it to me? I studied it for three months and then ......"

"And you didn't do anything!" Gu Caiwei was puzzled.

A touch of embarrassment appeared on Du Junqing's face again. "Then, I became obsessed with all kinds of murder weapons, and every day I studied the structure, lethality, and difficulty of building these things, and I forgot about suicide."

Gu Caiwei suddenly held her stomach and laughed. "To put it bluntly, you don't want to die at all!"

"Definitely. And if I hadn't survived, how would I have met you? Du Junqing smiled lightly, and he took the initiative to take her hand, "Today is also thanks to you and Jiulang for helping me." ”

"Isn't that how it should be? We are a family. Gu Caiwei hurriedly shook her head, "But ...... Are you sure that wound you've created will be able to hide it from everyone? ”

"Of course not." Du Junqing shook his head without hesitation, "That knife edge is very shallow, so if you glance at it in a hurry, you will mistakenly think that it is suicide." But if you look closely, you can find the doorway inside. Regardless of the angle or strength, it is actually a deviation from the real suicide. However, do you think the samurai will have the patience to let him check it well? Just like today. And by tomorrow, I don't think there will be many people interested in examining the wounds on the corpses. Especially those who sit on the top, it doesn't matter to them to die a person, but an iron mine is related to whether the national strength of the Great Zhou Dynasty can be stronger. Which is better or worse, they have their own plans in their hearts. ”

"That's right." Gu Caiwei sighed lowly, "You brought out the iron ore at this time, it's really just right." The martial arts family hates you again, but as long as Di Ge Lao and them protect you, and then Her Majesty the Empress says something, they won't dare to touch you. ”

That's why he dared to kill Wu Chengwei directly ruthlessly!

It's just that Wu Chengwei really deserves to be killed!

He is really arrogant, even if he bullies men and women on weekdays, but now he has developed to the point of taking a fancy to others, so no matter what identity others are, whether they are willing or not, he will be poisoned! Of course, this is also inseparable from Her Majesty's bottomless connivance with the Wu family. It's just that the foundation of the martial arts family is shallow, and the family education is not strict, so with such connivance, look at what virtues the younger generations they teach now!

It's just that...... Thinking of Du Junqing being taken by Wu Chengwei again, she couldn't help but want to laugh.

"You pretend to be so cold and abstinent for me all day long. Okay now, you're being targeted, right? She poked him on the forehead angrily.

Du Junqing also sank his face instantly. "It seems that I still have a bad impression on others. I'd better keep my beard up! ”

"It's not a question of whether you have a beard or not, it's a question of your overall temperament, okay?" Gu Caiwei unceremoniously pointed out the problem, "You look white and clean, but your body looks slender and slender, and at first glance you are not much different from a little lady." But he has such a face again, innocent and harmless like a little white rabbit, but the eyes are stubborn and resolute, with strong contrast and great contrast. If you have no distractions, you are fine, but if you meet those men and women who are full of desires, they will have the urge to knock you down. Not to mention that there are countless men and women in Chang'an City nowadays. ”

And that includes her, of course.

After Du Junqing heard this, he immediately frowned. "Therefore, I still need to strengthen my body and drive away the feminine temperament on my body, so that I won't give people a reason to think about it."

"No, I think you might as well elevate yourself and make yourself a celebrity in front of Her Majesty. As long as Her Majesty trusts you and values you, then others will naturally not dare to do anything to you. In these days, no matter how strong the body is, it is not as powerful as the supreme power. Gu Caiwei said slowly.

Hey, if my grandfather was still alive, I would definitely scold someone for seeing such a scene.

Du Junqing frowned again. "Then it's a two-pronged approach!"

"That's fine. As long as you can hold on anyway. Gu Caiwei spread her hands helplessly.

Du Junqing gritted his teeth. "I can hold it."

As soon as he finished speaking, he couldn't help but yawn loudly.

Gu Caiwei chuckled, and hurriedly took his hand. "It's late, let's not talk about anything else, let's go to bed quickly! In any case, let's get through tomorrow's level first. ”

Du Jun cleared his head, and hurriedly hugged her, the kind that hugged her, and the two of them leaned together and fell asleep.

Here, the Changning Marquis Mansion quickly fell into silence, but the Wu Chenghe's Mansion was still brightly lit.

Wu Chengsi looked coldly at his nephew kneeling in front of him, his face was gloomy and cold, and it was very ugly.

"What do you want me to do? You repeat! ”

"Uncle, nephew, please call the shots for my brother!" Wu Chengyu hurriedly shouted, "My brother died so miserably, he was killed by Du Junqing!" But Du Junqing relied on the fact that there was an iron mine in his back cover, and refused to admit his guilt. Those people in Dali Temple also indulged him incomparably because of this iron mine, and even let him escape! My nephew is incompetent, and now I can only come to ask my uncle to personally order the third division to retry the case and give my brother justice! ”

"Do you want to give justice to your brother, or do you just want the surname Du to accompany him to the funeral?" Wu Chengsi asked coldly.

Wu Chengyu was stunned, and immediately gritted his teeth: "The best ending is, of course, that their family will give my brother a funeral!" Why did my brother die so miserably, but they didn't have anything, and now the family is happily going home? ”

"Shut up about this matter in the future!" Unexpectedly, after he finished speaking, Wu Chengsi said coldly.

Wu Chengyu hurriedly raised his head. "Uncle, are you also afraid of the power of Elder Di Ge?"

Wu Chengsi's eyes were cold. "Don't use the agitation method for me here, I don't eat this set."

Wu Chengyu hurriedly lowered his head, and then heard Wu Chengsi say: "Since your brother is already dead, people can't be resurrected after death, even if they kill the Changning Hou family, what can they do?" But since you know that now he has an iron ore in his hand, and the iron in that iron mine is of excellent quality, and he has already made several treasure knives that sharpen iron like clay, haven't you thought that if this iron ore is used by me, it will just add a big boost to my struggle for the position of prince? ”

"Uncle, you're right, but in that case, shouldn't we kill the surnamed Du? If he doesn't die, how can the iron ore fall into your hands? Wu Chengyu tried his best to turn the topic to kill Du Junqing.

But Wu Chengsi shook his head. "We can't do that right now. Since the iron ore was discovered by him, he must only know everything best about him. Therefore, it is imperative to have a good relationship with him first, and wait until we have figured out all the news related to the iron mine, and our personnel are also placed in important positions in it, and then it is not too late to plan to get rid of him. ”

Listening to his uncle's methodical plan, Wu Chengyu's heart was cold again.

"So according to your meaning, uncle, now we have to spare his life?"

"Not only to stay, but also to stay well, in the future, our martial arts family must also maintain contact with the Changning Marquis Mansion." Wu Chengsi stroked a handful of beautiful hair and said with a smile.

The last glimmer of hope was shattered, Wu Chengyu's shoulders collapsed, and his eyes were defeated.

"Yes, my nephew knows." He replied weakly, then turned around and slowly walked out of the study.

But before he could take a few steps, he couldn't help but scratch the back of his hand: "Why is it so itchy?" ”

While scratching, he also saw a few small pieces of white dander being scratched off, and he didn't care, still thinking about Du Junqing's performance in the Peony Tower and Dali Temple today, as well as what Fang Cai Wu Chengsi said...... His shoulders suddenly collapsed even more.

"Brother, you really don't deserve to die!" He sighed under his breath, and his voice was quickly blown away by the night wind, and disappeared into invisibility.

After he left, Wu Chengsi was full of smiles, proudly took the map of Da Zhou on the table, carefully found the location of Yongxing County, and immediately looked satisfied: "Yongxing County, here." It looks like an inconspicuous little place, but who would have thought that such a large iron mine was hidden in this place? Now with you, my position as crown prince is even more secure! ”

Speaking of joy, he laughed out loud.

Seeing this, the little guy and the others around him also laughed.

Just laughed a few times, Wu Chengsi suddenly felt an itch on his neck. After grabbing a few handfuls, he saw a few pieces of dander on his fingertips.

His face suddenly changed greatly, and he hurriedly shouted in a continuous voice: "Quick, go and ask for a doctor!" I'm itching on my neck and it's all peeling! ”

The little guy didn't dare to delay, so he ran to the imperial doctor's house overnight, grabbed the imperial doctor in his sleep, and dragged him over to show Wu Chenghe's neck.

The old lady doctor is old and healthy, and it is easy for Mu Xiu to be at home today, but he was dragged over. But he didn't dare to complain, and he had to take a serious look at Wu Chenghe's neck: "Guogong, your neck is fine, it should have been accidentally bitten by insects and ants, and it will be fine if you smear some medicine." Now that it is summer, insects and ants are flourishing, and I will ask Guogong not to go to places where the grass and trees are too prosperous in the future. ”

After the cool ointment was applied, the itchy area on the neck was really healed, and Wu Chengji breathed a sigh of relief. "Got it, you step down!"

The old lady hurriedly took the medicine box and said goodbye.

After such a toss, the sky outside was covered with a burst of white at this time.

However, Wu Chengsi was in a good mood, he quickly stood up, hummed a little song in his mouth, returned to the room slowly, and rolled around the beautiful concubine he had just received, and finally fell asleep with peace of mind.

As soon as Du Junqing slept until midnight, he quickly got up and went to the guard as always.

It's just that as soon as he arrived at the guard, he found that his colleagues looked at him very differently. It's just that he doesn't care, and as always, he just does his own thing. Now that he has just arrived, there are still many files to read, and his main purpose today is still this one.

But I didn't read the dossier for ten minutes, and someone came to the palace.

"Spread the message of Her Majesty the Empress, Xuan Chang Ninghou and the right Xiaowei general Du Junqing entered the palace to meet you!"

Finally, the moment came.

Du Jun breathed a sigh of relief, and he Shi Shiran got up. "We're in command."

After simply taking care of the things at hand, he followed the eunuch into the palace.

At this time, the early dynasty had passed, and Her Majesty did not receive him at the top of the main hall, but directly summoned him to the imperial study. And when Du Junqing arrived, in addition to Di Ge Lao and Zhang Xiangye, there were many people from the military department and the household department, as well as the core personnel of the martial arts family such as Wu Chenghe.

With a simple sweep of his eyes, Du Junqing stepped forward and saluted. "Wechen has seen Her Majesty the Empress."

"Aiqing is exempt from courtesy, flat body." The Empress said in a deep voice.

Du Junqing hurriedly thanked him, then raised his head and boldly looked at the empress.

Seeing this, the empress instantly raised her eyebrows. "I don't know, it turns out that the Marquis of Changning is so bold that he dares to look at me! There aren't many people in this world who have the guts of you. ”

"Weichen has something in his hand and confidence in his heart, so of course he is not afraid of anything." Du Jun responded indifferently.

The Empress's eyes narrowed slightly. "Aiqing is so confident?"

"That's nature." Du Junqing bowed his head unceremoniously, "Presumably, Her Majesty the Empress summoned Weichen into the palace today, it should be for the iron ore in Weichen's fiefdom, right?" Wechen has already sorted out all the things related to iron ore, and asked Her Majesty the Empress to take a look. ”

With that, he took out a scroll from his bosom and presented it respectfully with both hands.

The female officer on the side hurriedly took it and forwarded it, and the empress opened it and took a skim, and she immediately showed a look of satisfaction.

"According to Du Aiqing, the quality of the raw iron produced in this iron mine is not bad?" She raised her eyes again and asked Du Junqing.

Du Junqing fixed the fixed head. "It's not bad, it's at least half of it is excellent. The lower official also asked people to take a few pieces of raw iron to build a weapon at will, and then make sure that it can be used. ”

"Oh? In this way, Marquis Changning, did you open a mine without the permission of the imperial court, and privately summoned craftsmen to cast weapons for you? Immediately, I listened to Wu Chenghe's deep voice and ask.

Du Junqing's eyes darkened instantly, but he still nodded. "Yes, Weichen knows his mistake, please punish His Majesty!"

"Forget it. You should have done something wrong because you just discovered the iron ore and were confused because you didn't have the owner of the six gods for a while. Now that you've dedicated the iron ore, I won't be able to pursue any of the little mistakes I made before. Her Majesty hurriedly waved her hand, "However, you said that you have built a few weapons, where are those weapons?" ”

A touch of embarrassment suddenly appeared on Du Junqing's face.

"Wechen actually didn't have much in his hands, and at the beginning, he only built a self-defense dagger for Wechen's wife and son. Later, I got an extra piece of raw iron, so I asked people to create a short knife for Wei Chen, and the short knife last night ......"

"What's wrong with the daggers?" The Empress was puzzled.

The female officer beside her hurriedly whispered a few words in her ear.

After hearing this, the empress suddenly frowned. "So, that short knife is now in Dali Temple?"

"Back to Your Majesty, exactly." Du Jun cleared his head.

"If that's the case, then if I want to see the finished product now, I can only look at the hands of Mrs. Changning Hou and the prince." The Empress's head.

The female official understood, and immediately ordered to the outside world: "Mrs. Xuan Changning Hou, and the prince of Changning Hou will enter the palace to meet you!" ”

"Yes!" When the eunuch heard this, he immediately turned around and ran out.

Du Junqing still looked cramped at this time. "There's a lot of stuff dug up in the iron ore. It's just that Yongxing County is too far away, and Weichen doesn't often dance with swords, so he didn't let people send too many Yuan Tie over. Originally, I just planned to give our family of three a tool for self-defense, and it was enough. ”

This is far from what Wu Chengsi said about casting weapons in private. After all, who only casts three weapons? And it's two small daggers for self-defense, as well as a short knife for personal defense. If you take these things out, you can't deal with thousands of troops at all, okay?

Wu Chengsi frowned slightly when he heard this, and his face suddenly became not very good-looking.

Her Majesty laughed heartily. "Changning Hou, you are really as they said, honest and honest, indifferent to fame and fortune. Obviously, such a large iron mine was caught in your hands, and you only built three iron tools? You're a ...... What do you say about you? It's been a long time since I've met someone as honest as you! ”

Du Junqing hurriedly gave up his hand again. "Thank you, Your Majesty, for the compliment."

But when these words were heard in the ears of Wu Chengsi and the others, the corners of their mouths couldn't help but twitch wildly.

Is he honest? It's weird to be honest! How could an honest man stand here in peace and still accept the praise of Her Majesty the Empress? If it was really an honest man who got the iron ore, he would definitely be so frightened that he would have quickly surrendered the iron ore, how could he still be like him step by step, step by step, steady and steady, until now?

However, since Her Majesty the Empress had made up her mind like this, they naturally would not expose it, but instead raised their smiling faces and echoed it. Especially Wu Chenghe, he smiled brightest and echoed the loudest.

Then, Her Majesty the Empress asked Du Junqing a few more words about the iron mine, and Du Junqing also explained 1510.

While speaking, Gu Caiwei had already led Du Yi into the palace.

The two of them entered the imperial study together, and they heard bursts of laughter from inside.

"Mrs. Changning Hou, Prince Changning Hou, you all come here! Take out the dagger that Marquis Changning made for you and show it to me. After the salute, Her Majesty the Empress hurriedly said.

Hearing this, Du Yi's face immediately turned white, and he cried as soon as he wow.

That's right, he cried!

Seeing that this little guy was crying breathlessly, tears and snot fell together, and it didn't take long for him to be covered in a mess, and Her Majesty was stunned.

"What's wrong with this kid?" She asked hurriedly.

Gu Caiwei also hurriedly went over to pull him, but who knew that Du Yi sat down directly.

"Don't kill me, Daddy, okay? My daddy, he really didn't kill anyone, it was the man who crashed into his knife himself! At that time, so many people watched, he wanted to bully my father, my father resisted, and then he died. But his brother wants to kill my father, and he wants to kill us. Obviously, my father was acquitted by the Dali Temple, but last night on the way home, we were shot with arrows and set on fire...... I don't want to die, I don't want Daddy to die, I beg you not to kill him, okay? My dad didn't do anything wrong! ”

After only one night's hard work, this little guy learned the essence from Gu Tianyuan, and now he is crying so much. Look at his heartbroken appearance, as if Her Majesty the Empress called them over to kill Du Junqing in front of him!

It is said that there is no taboo in children's words. When Her Majesty the Empress heard this, her eyes froze: "Zhou Guogong, what's going on?" ”

Wu Chengsi was named, and he couldn't help but secretly scolded Wu Chengyu in his heart, saying that it was not enough to succeed and more than to lose, but he didn't see through the slightest rumor, and only shouted in horror: "Your Majesty is angry, Weichen doesn't know anything about this matter!" Weichen also heard Dali Siqing's words early this morning and knew that there was a quarrel between Changning Hou and Weichen's nephew. It's just that Weichen has been unwell recently, and he doesn't manage the affairs of the court very much, and he doesn't interfere in the affairs of the juniors. However, if this matter is indeed related to Shiyi Lang and them, Wei Chen will definitely teach them a hard lesson after he goes back, and then let them personally come to the door to apologize to the Marquis of Changning! ”

Her Majesty's eyes were like torches, how could she not know such a little trick he played?

It's just that for the sake of the other party being her own nephew, she can't find fault with the matter, so she bowed her head and said: "Since Dali Temple has pronounced a verdict, this matter has nothing to do with Changning Hou, then you don't make trouble unreasonably in the future, and then go to him for trouble." Changning Hou himself has just entered the right Xiaowei, and he has a lot of things at hand. Now there is the matter of iron ore...... If this is arranged, it will be a major event for the benefit of the country and the people. The well-being of the people of the world is paramount, and you must no longer entangle others because of a little grudge. ”

"Yes, my nephew knows." Wu Chengsi hurriedly responded respectfully.

In fact, Du Yi cried for a while, what he wanted was this sentence from the empress!

As long as the empress Chrysostom opens and the Wu family no longer pursues this matter, then this matter will be determined, and no matter how unwilling the Wu family is, they can only be obedient.

Look, now through his crying, won't this matter be easily solved?

Uncle Xiao is right, crying children have milk to eat. Especially in some small things, making a fuss can really get a good response.

Thinking so, he quickly raised his hand and wiped it on his face indiscriminately, and then rushed up to his head respectfully and bowed his hand: "Thank you Your Majesty for your insight and justice!" ”

Looking at him like this, he was so angry that he couldn't breathe, but he still kept the etiquette, Her Majesty the Empress was really distressed.

"This kid, come here." She beckoned to Du Yi.

Du Yi blinked, but it was over.

When he arrived at the empress, the empress took out a handkerchief to wipe the tears on his face, and then carefully looked at his face, and immediately bowed: "If you are really a good boy, kind-hearted, and good-looking, I like you." ”

Du Yi blinked, he suddenly grinned, and smiled stupidly. "Grandma, I like you too!"

"Presumptuous!"

Seeing this, Wu Chengsi hurriedly shouted again: "This one is Her Majesty the Empress of my Great Zhou Dynasty, where can you scream here?" ”

"San Lang, shut up." Her Majesty immediately reprimanded.

Wu Chengsi frowned again, but saw Her Majesty the Empress touching Du Yi's little face again. "Grandma likes you too! You're a real painstaking kid. ”

After that, she also took off a piece of jade pendant with her: "I suddenly summoned you into the palace today, and I didn't prepare any meeting gifts, so I'll keep this jade pendant for you to play!" ”

"Thank you, Grandma!" Du Yi hurriedly took it with both hands, and then returned to Gu Caiwei like a baby, "Auntie, look, Grandma gave it to me!" ”

Gu Caiwei nodded, and helped him put the jade pendant on his belt. Du Yi also looked down for a long time.

Seeing him such a childish appearance, a smile also appeared on Her Majesty's face.

Then, she turned her gaze to Gu Caiwei. "You are Mrs. Changning?"

Gu Caiwei hurriedly bowed her head. "Back to Your Majesty, I am."

"Raise your head and let me see."

Gu Caiwei hurriedly raised her head, and noticed that two bone-piercing cold eyes were looking back and forth on her body, and then took it back.

"You are also a good boy, no wonder the Taiping have praised you in front of me several times." At last, she heard Her Majesty speak in a whisper.

It turns out that Princess Taiping once praised herself in front of her?

Gu Caiwei was slightly shocked in her heart, but she immediately figured it out - Princess Taiping also had a heart that wanted to be the crown princess. Over the years, she has presented countless young and handsome young men to Her Majesty, and there are countless elixirs for longevity. So now that there is a living person who can make medicinal food and condition people's bodies, how can Princess Taiping let it go? I'm afraid that she has already recommended it to Her Majesty many times in private.

That's why when I see her now, Her Majesty the Empress will look so familiar.

Knowing this, Gu Caiwei lowered her head. "The princess is really overrated. Actually, I'm just greedy myself, so I studied it with all my heart. But compared to the doctors in the hospital, my methods are not worth mentioning at all. ”

"You can't say that. Since Taiping has always praised you, it means that you are also capable of doing it. It seems that when I have time, I will have to let you come into the palace and cook some fresh dishes for me to eat. Her Majesty said slowly, and then she had already turned her head, "But for now, you better take out your dagger and show it to me!" ”

"Yes." Gu Caiwei nodded hurriedly, and Du Yi and Du Yi each took out their personal daggers and sent them over.

The lady put the two daggers on a plate and turned to her majesty.

Her Majesty the Empress picked up Du Yi's one first and looked at it, and then she was satisfied: "It is indeed a good knife, the edge is not exposed, and it is all contained in it, but once it is urged with mental power, it will be murderous - it is really your style of Changning Hou." ”

Looking at Gu Caiwei's hand, she frowned again for a moment. "Why is this dagger broken?"

Gu Caiwei hurriedly said that Princess Taiping had to fight with her last time.

Her Majesty couldn't help but shake her head. "Taiping, this kid is just too willful. and Princess Jianchang, what kind of coaxing is she? Look, what has a good dagger become by them now? ”

"Your Majesty need not worry. Weichen knows a sword-casting master, his skills are superb, no matter how bad the broken iron, as long as it enters his hands, it will definitely look new, and some can also glow with new vitality! Turning around, Weichen introduced people to the Marquis of Changning, and within a month, Mrs. Marquis Changning's dagger will definitely be restored to its original state. Wu Chengsi hurriedly spoke again.

"That's for the best." Her Majesty's head.

After holding the two daggers in her hand and playing with them, she asked someone to return the things to Gu Caiwei and Du Yi.

"Okay, now I have a rough understanding of the iron mine in Yongxing County. Marquis Changning, you discovered the iron ore, but you were not proud of the credit, and handed it over to the imperial court as soon as possible, I must be rewarded for this matter! And this iron mine, since it is on your fiefdom, it is better to hand it over to you for management first, and the military department and household department will manage it together, what do you think? ”

"Everything is up to Her Majesty!" Du Junqing had no doubts, and quickly agreed.

Her Majesty was pleased with his cheerful attitude.

Just immediately, I heard Du Junqing cautiously mention: "So, I don't know the short knife ...... that Weichen put in Dali Temple."

"Now that the truth has been revealed, after the official goes back, he will urge them to close the case as soon as possible, and the relevant physical evidence will naturally be returned to the parties." Dali Siqing hurriedly said.

The Empress's head. "It's for the best. Merely...... In the matter of Wu Chengwei's death, although you are innocent, you did not stop it in time, and you need to bear some responsibility. However, I will punish you for one year as a consolation to Wu Chengwei's family, Changning Hou, are you convinced? ”

"Micro surrender!" Du Junqing nodded hurriedly.

When Gu Caiwei heard this, she almost couldn't help but laugh in the imperial study.

Her Majesty the Empress is really ruthless!

Just under Du Yi's crying, she had already taken the initiative to characterize this incident - Wu Chengwei was looking for death by himself, so Du Junqing was tragically implicated. So now, if she pretends to say that Du Junqing needs to share the responsibility for poor dissuasion, and then he will be fined for another year, then this matter will be completely over!

The family of the bitter lord got the compensation - although the martial arts family didn't look down on this compensation at all, but the compensation was there! Du Junqing also paid the due price - a year's salary, and they didn't live on the money given by the imperial court!

In other words, a few words of reprimand, plus a little painless punishment, the matter is completely solved. After the Wu family took the money, they were not qualified to come to Du Jun to settle the accounts in the future. Du Junqing will also be able to take care of the affairs of Right Xiaowei in peace, as well as the iron mine under his name.

Therefore, of course, he was very satisfied with Her Majesty's arrangement.

Wu Chengsi immediately expressed his approval on behalf of the Wu family.

Then, that was the end of the matter.

Her Majesty the Empress is old, and she has just finished the morning court, and now she is still so tossed, she is already too tired. He yawned and waved his hand to get them down.

Gu Caiwei couldn't ask for it, so she hurriedly retreated with Du Junqing and Du Yi.

It's just that now because of this iron mine, Du Junqing has become the hottest existence in Chang'an City.

Now that the news of the iron mine has not spread, the people who were summoned by Her Majesty the Empress this morning are the first to know, and they naturally want to be close to Du Junqing. Therefore, from the time they left the imperial study to the gate of the palace, these people surrounded Du Junqing and talked to him.

This caused Gu Caiwei and Du Yi, the two useless ones, to be directly squeezed aside, and the two of them walked behind hand in hand as a matter of course, just watching Du Junqing surrounded by this group of people, his face was obviously ugly but he couldn't attack yet, so he could only continue to deal with it patiently.

But fortunately, these people also have eyes. Seeing that Du Junqing had begun to get impatient, they gradually shut up. happened to have arrived at the gate of the palace, so they hurriedly said goodbye and pedaled away.

However, there was another person, he didn't take the initiative to come over and say a word to Du Junqing from beginning to end, just walked slowly aside, smiling and looking at the group of people who were vying to talk to Du Junqing with a touch of disdain in his eyes.

It was easy to wait until those people were gone, and then he Shi Shiran came to Du Junqing's side: "Marquis of Changning." ”

Du Junqing turned around: "Zhou Guogong, may I ask you what's the matter?" ”

"Naturally, it's the one I promised to Her Majesty." Wu Chengsi smiled and said, "When do you think you are free, I will take you to meet that master?" His blacksmithing skills were so good that the dagger in Princess Taiping's hand came from this master's hand. ”

"I see." Du Jun cleared his head, "It's just that Zhou Guogong is busy with official business, and the lower officials don't dare to bother you." You still directly tell the lower official the name and location of this person, and the lower official will come to visit him by himself, and his name will definitely be reported at that time. ”

"But that man has a very strange temper, and if there is no one to guide him, ordinary people will not be able to get close to his door at all!" Wu Chengsi was still smiling lightly, but the corners of his lips had already been smug.

Du Junqing frowned slightly when he heard this, so he could only nod. "Since this is the case, then the lower officials can only dare to bother Zhou Guogong to help introduce them."

"It's okay, it's all your own people!" Wu Chengsi hurriedly smiled, and patted him on the shoulder affectionately, "I know that the descendants of Lai Guogong are naturally outstanding!" ”

After that, he felt a little itchy on his neck again. However, he could still endure this itch, so he continued to say goodbye to Du Junqing with a smile, and then got on the horse and left satisfied.

As soon as he walked on the front foot, Du Junqing sank his face again on the back foot.

"Get in the car!" He said to Gu Caiwei.

Gu Caiwei hurriedly pulled Du Yi to climb into the car, and several people returned to the Hou Mansion together.

Until this time, Du Junqing's face was still gloomy and terrifying.

Du Yi looked frightened. He hurriedly and quietly pulled Gu Caiwei: "Why do you say Daddy, why is his face so ugly?" Isn't it clear that the lawsuit for that life has already been concluded? ”

"The human life lawsuit is over, but now a small cockroach crawls over, and he can't get rid of it when he steps on it, and he pretends to give you so many benefits, and forcibly asks you to accept it, aren't you disgusting in exchange for you?" Gu Caiwei only said.

Du Yi thought about it carefully. "It's disgusting."

When Gu Tianyuan heard that they were back, he quickly ran out. Just hearing Gu Caiwei and Du Yi's words, he hurriedly asked, "Which little cockroach of the martial arts family hugged his brother-in-law and didn't let go?" ”

Du Yi told Wu Chengsi all the things he had done.

After Gu Tianyuan heard this, he smiled disdainfully. "Isn't it easy to solve this matter? Didn't he keep saying that he wanted to introduce you to the swordsmith master? Let's secretly operate and let the master not give him face in public, isn't that okay? ”

"Uncle, you are saying this too lightly. We don't even know who that master is! Zhou Guogong also bit the news tightly, refusing to reveal a word. Du Yi said in a sullen voice, "And depending on what he means, that person is indeed very difficult to deal with, and I am a little scared when I see him talking about that person." ”

"It's hard to deal with anything! The most famous swordsmith in the world is none other than Yang Mingzi. However, Yang Mingzi didn't come out much ten years ago, and now it is his three apprentices who are moving around to take over. And the one who is famous near Chang'an City, and has a strange temper, always likes to set up some rules to scare off others, and to improve his reputation and make a lot of money, if I remember correctly, it should be Zheng Ningzi? Gu Tianyuan folded his fingers and counted seriously, then looked at Gu Caiwei, "Sister, am I right?" ”

"That's right, that's him." Gu Caiwei bowed.

Gu Tianyuan suddenly laughed so much that he almost let out a donkey bark. "It's really him! This guy is playing tricks, and he really fooled them all? ”

Gu Caiwei couldn't help but smile and shake her head. "Isn't this what Yang Mingzi is best at? Naturally, his apprentices also got his true inheritance. ”

Hearing them say this, Du Yi's eyes immediately lit up. "Do you know this person?"

"How do you know? It's so familiar, right? Gu Tianyuan hurriedly replied, "Moreover, it is this Zheng Yangzi, he still owes my sister a favor, and he took the initiative to promise to ask for it at that time!" So now, as long as you want him to help, it's just a matter of mouthful, and in the end, you don't even have to owe a favor, and he still has to be grateful to us! ”

"Well, that's great!" After Du Yi heard this, he immediately clapped his hands with joy.

Du Junqing's eyes darkened, he suddenly pulled Gu Caiwei up, dragged her directly to the room, and then asked her in a deep voice. "How many talented people do you know in this Chang'an City? How many things are you hiding from me? ”

"Didn't I tell you, there are many, many of them? It's just that if I don't meet it, I can't remember it. But as long as I think about it, I'm sure I'll tell you. Just like today, didn't Ah Yuan and I say that we didn't hide anything? Gu Caiwei was very dissatisfied with his aggressive attitude.

"What about Her Majesty?" Du Junqing asked.

Gu Caiwei blinked. "What's wrong with Her Majesty?"

Du Junqing looked at her eyes fixedly, and said word by word: "When you entered the palace today to meet Her Majesty the Empress, you were afraid. ”
