In the courtyard of the eldest princess of the protectorate.

After the trial of Jingning County, he asked the middle-aged woman to change her clothes, and the eldest princess of the protectorate called Zhou Yan again and asked him to take someone and the middle-aged woman to find the so-called fifth master.

The county lord of Jingning looked at the middle-aged woman who kept pulling her clothes, and chuckled, "Uncle Zhou, they will follow you, you better not play tricks, you must know that if you are careful, today next year will be your family's sacrifice day."

If you don't believe me, you can give it a try......"

Her tone was soft, and every word was so clear that it hit the middle-aged woman's ear, like a ghost smashing a hammer on her heart, making her heart skip a beat.

She could only keep nodding and nodding again.

The county lord of Jingning quietly watched Zhou Yan take the middle-aged woman out and go to the tea tree alley.

Gu Nian sat on the kang with the eldest princess of the protector and watched the county lord of Jingning deal with these things.

"County Lord, what about the rest?" Seeing that the county lord of Jingning was sitting down, Mama Su hurriedly stepped forward and asked.

The county lord of Jingning picked up the teacup at random, glanced at the remaining people, and saw that they were scared like quails, shrunk their heads, and said tastelessly,

"Shut it up first, don't pay attention to it, and deal with it when you see the fifth master."

Mama Su asked the others to be brought down, and said to the eldest princess of the protectorate, "I don't know which one who is not afraid of death has reached out to you." ”

"I'll know when that fifth master catches me." The eldest princess of the protector squinted her eyes and leaned on the big pillow on the couch.

The county lord of Jingning pursed his red lips, "How should the Xu family send it away?" ”

The eldest princess of the Protectorate said lightly, "Since she likes to run back so much, let her live there first and stay until she is happy." ”

"Just let her live in the main courtyard, don't give her food, don't give her drink, don't let people talk to her, not a word."

"Mother, do they know about this big brother?" The county lord of Jingning bit her lip and couldn't help but ask, she looked neat and fierce when she interrogated those people just now, in fact, she hadn't done such a thing for a long time.

Shi'an often said that she had changed, and she had indeed changed.

In the past, she was a noble girl in the capital and was sought after by everyone.

Later, she became dust that fell into the mud, and she hated to shrink into a hole in the ground and never come out again.

The eldest princess of the Protectorate sighed slightly, and said coldly, "They shouldn't know that I didn't let him marry the Xu family at the beginning, but he just wanted to marry, a good daughter-in-law, three generations of Wang." ”

Gu Nian's red lips curved slightly, and she smiled sarcastically, "My aunt looks like she has changed a lot, and the people behind her must have helped her a lot......"

The eldest princess of the Protectorate had an undisguised look of contempt in her eyes, "No matter how much it changes, it is only superficial, your uncle is very good as an official and a person, but only in the Xu family, he is confused."

Fortunately, your cousin and cousin are not confused, and the only thing they can't understand is now far away in southern Xinjiang, and they will deal with your aunt's matter. ”

In the evening, Xiao Yue, Gu Shi'an, and Zhou Yuxuan all returned to An Yuanhou, knowing that Mrs. An Yuanhou was sent back, but their faces were not very good-looking.

Especially Xiao Yue, the Xu family was robbed by him halfway and sent to another nunnery, Zhou Yuxuan said that he would let her come back in ten years, but he didn't think that he would let the Xu family return to the capital safely ten years later.

Ten years, there are too many reasons to let a person die.

Xu is really a small role, and in the later stage, he didn't care too much about her.

Unexpectedly, years of caution capsized on the small role of Xu.

Zhou Yuxuan knew about this matter, for so many years, the letters sent to An Yuanhou were all from Zhou Yuxuan's hands.

When the three men came back, An Yuanhou also settled Mrs. An Yuanhou in the backyard, hurried to the study, and saw the three people, very embarrassed.

However, no one paid attention to his awkward smile.

"The timing of Mrs. Hou's return is really strange, and the people around her have also changed, which is extremely strange, I don't know how my mother-in-law interrogated." Gu Shi'an asked.

Everyone's face is not very good, and there must be a demon when things go wrong.

It is said that such a thing should not happen, but Mrs. An Yuanhou came back from Jinling safely.

This is indeed too weird, too strange, and besides, Mrs. An Yuanhou went to Jinling because of that kind of thing, poisoning her mother-in-law!

Who knows what the purpose of her return will be?

Moreover, although Zhou Yuxuan does not have a real job now, he is very favored by the emperor, and he can almost be said to be the uncrowned king.

It just so happened that the eldest princess of the protectorate sent someone to invite the men in the study to the backyard, and there was something to discuss, and the place where the group discussed became the resting room in the courtyard of the eldest princess of the protector.

Seeing the face of the county lord of Jingning who had removed the veil, apricot eyes and curved eyebrows, a pretty nose and cherry lips, fair skin, and the original scars were gone, it looked very comfortable and eye-catching.

Everyone was happy for the county lord of Jingning.

Especially Gu Shi'an, he looked at the county lord of Jingning with a smile behind his back, slowly walked to her side, sat down, quietly held her hand, and said softly, "Bad things, quietly, don't let me see it, I'm not the first ...... to know"

In the end, it was a little coquettish.

Gu Nian on the side has already raised his hand to cover his face, he can't look at it, why did his father become so shameless?

Gu Shi'an didn't care, and asked again, "How is the question?" What's going on? ”

"It's not that simple." The county lord of Jingning said in a deep voice, "There must be someone behind the Xu family, and the person who sent her back will not just want to be a favor, it must be carefully designed, and there is a purpose that cannot be superior." ”

Marquis An Yuan saw that the county lord of Jingning was no longer qualified for Xu's 'sister-in-law', and he was a little unhappy, and asked in a stalk, "Then what are they trying to do?" ”

Figure what?

Gu Nian glanced at An Yuanhou and sneered, "Sometimes, some people don't need to do anything.

You just need to make yourself happy and others sad. ”

Hearing her say this, Zhou Yuxuan immediately replied, "Is my cousin talking about the fourth prince?" ”

This madman, it's possible.

Everything he is doing now is sane, not just because he is at the end of his rope, but because he has gone mad.

However, Gu Nian still shook her head, her intuition was not that of the fourth prince, but she was at a loss for a while, "Not necessarily, but when the fifth master is caught, she should probably know if it is not." ”

Zhou Yan was a subordinate next to the old Marquis of Anyuan, and he had always done things properly, and before it was time for dinner, under the leadership of the middle-aged woman, he arrived smoothly and brought him back to the Marquis of Anyuan's mansion.

The men and women in the family are all there, and at this juncture, Mrs. An Yuanhou suddenly returned, and everyone had to have conspiracy theories.

The fifth master looks like he is not easy to deal with. When he appeared in front of everyone, his clothes were torn in several places, and his face was wounded.

Even Zhou Yan, who brought him back, didn't look very refreshing, it seemed that they had a fight.

Everyone was not ready to talk nonsense with her, this time, it was Zhou Yuxuan who interrogated the fifth master, and the ladies were all sitting behind the screen and watching.

"Whose person are you? Why did you bring my mother back? ”

The man didn't lift his head, his hands were tied behind his back, and a piece of cloth was stuffed in his mouth.

Zhou Yan said, "Shizi, this is a ruthless character, just now he almost killed the woman who led the way."

Luckily we didn't go far, otherwise we wouldn't have caught him. ”

"Are you alright?" Zhou Yuxuan asked Zhou Yan with concern.

Zhou Yan smiled, "No, he wants to fight with his subordinates, but he is still a little tender." ”

Zhou Yuxuan nodded, turned around, looked at the fifth master with sharp eyebrows, and said with a smile, "If you don't talk about your master, we know it." ”

The fifth master's expression remained unchanged, and he raised his eyes to look at Zhou Yuxuan, his eyes were terrifying.

Zhou Yuxuan didn't care, and walked to his side, "You send her back, it's not for kindness, it's not for fun, but you just want to mess up our family."

The house is restless, and then you can hit me and my father, and you say that there is something to go to you, so what else is there to go to you after all this has happened? ”

"My mother is not very smart, she will not know what your purpose is, why don't you tell me what you sent her back all the way for, okay?"

His three words of 'good or not' were extremely gentle, but the hairs on people's bodies stood up involuntarily.

The fifth master was still unmoved, and looked at Zhou Yuxuan indifferently.

Xiao Yue looked at Zhou Yuxuan from the side and said, "Let the dark one go down for interrogation." ”

As the leader of the Xiao family's secret guard camp, Dark One still has some means of interrogation.

Zhou Yuxuan shook his head, this matter is all a family matter, and they should not have been involved.

He chuckled, "Speaking of which, I have traveled from south to north for so many years, and I remember seeing a kind of lynching in one place, and I will say it for your reference, maybe you can use it in the future." ”

He looked at Xiao Yue with a smile and slowly talked about the lynching he had heard, "Use a dagger with quenched medicine, pierce the joints with silver needles, and disassemble the joints around the body, the medicine can make people's joints fail."

This drug is the key, the person who starts the hand, the acupuncture points, the joints should be well understood, and the technique is accurate, so that the person who is given will not have pain, but he will not be able to recover for a lifetime.

He would watch as the needles and daggers pierced into his body, and then he would be like a ghost, unable to move, unable to speak, and it would not be an exaggeration to say that he was a living dead.

I have studied the acupuncture points of the human body more thoroughly, and I have brought back some of the medicine, and I have never tried it, otherwise, I will show you a hand today, maybe the first time I give birth to my hands, it will make the flesh and blood blurred, and please bear ......with me."

After speaking, he politely said to the women behind the screen, "Grandmother, aunt, cousin, why don't you avoid it first." ”

After speaking, he walked over and took out the cloth towel in the mouth of the fifth master, and asked the little maid next to him to go to his study to bring the silver needles and medicine.

The fifth master glared at Zhou Yuxuan angrily and said, "Phew, you can't scare Lao Tzu, Lao Tzu is not scared, Lao Tzu brought your mother back with all the hard work, you are not grateful, but you want to send Lao Tzu, ungrateful things." ”

Xiao Yue 'tsk' twice, and An Yuanhou's face suddenly became bad.

He is an ordinary person, and he can't learn martial arts well, so he stepped forward and kicked under the crotch of the fifth master, "He Lao Tzu is here, he Lao Tzu will give you some color first." ”

The most vulnerable part of the man, even if An Yuanhou is an ordinary man, kicking it still makes the fifth master fall to the ground, but his hands are tied behind his back, and he can't even comfort him, so he can only curl up and wail.

Zhou Yuxuan glanced at it, waved his hand, looked defeated, and ordered Zhou Yan, "Take people down, pay attention to whether there are people around the mansion staring, looking suspicious, arrest them." ”

Zhou Yan should be, he picked up the fifth master on the ground, and said suspiciously, "Shizi, this person doesn't say anything, can't ask anything, isn't it for nothing to arrest him?" ”

"No, it won't." Zhou Yuxuan glanced at the fifth master lightly, "If I'm not mistaken, this person behind the scenes will soon come to him." ”

Zhou Yan didn't understand, but the others did.

Even the fifth master in pain didn't care about the pain, and suddenly looked up at Zhou Yuxuan with an unbelievable look.

"You didn't alert the others when you went to arrest someone, did you?" Zhou Yuxuan asked Zhou Yan.

Zhou Yan shook his head, "When I went, I didn't make any movement, even if I arrested people later, I also beat them in the yard with the door closed." ”

Zhou Yuxuan nodded, there would be no knowledge that something had happened to the fifth master, which meant that there would continue to be people to contact the fifth master.

The way of the chief judge of Jingning County is very effective, and while killing chickens and monkeys, let those people take out all the usual letters of the fifth master.

As long as someone imitates the handwriting of the fifth master and writes a letter to send it, the people behind the curtain will definitely send it to the door, and when the time comes, they just need to go to the house in Chashu Hutong to guard it.

At that time, it will be clear who the people behind the scenes are and what they want to do.

The letter was sent out quickly, Xiao Yue and Gu Shi'an wanted to follow Zhou Yuxuan, Zhou Yuxuan shook his head and said, "No need, you guys go along, it's not good for people to find out when the time comes, since this person can do such a thing, he must not be a big person, and no one knows what amazing actions he will have."

I'll take people with me, the target is small, you guys will answer in the back, and there will be time to dispatch anything. ”

Zhou Yuxuan must catch people, Xu is his mother is good, but he doesn't want her to be used and stupidly deal with his family.

It was already dark, dinner had already been prepared, no one had much appetite, and everyone only symbolically filled their stomachs.

Zhou Yuxuan took people to set off to the tea tree alley to ambush.

Soon, there was a knock on the door, and Zhou Yan whispered beside Zhou Yuxuan, "Shizi, this is a knock code, when we came to arrest the fifth master first, the woman said that this is the knock method......

Zhou Yuxuan nodded, he was sitting on the kang in the east chamber at the moment, and there was an oil lamp lit on the small table in front of him, and he let Zhou Yan go to the dark.

After a while, the door creaked open, and then there was the sound of footsteps, and the door of the east chamber was pushed open, and two people walked in from the outside.

Zhou Yuxuan lifted his eyelids and looked at the person who came, his body couldn't help but stiffen, the person who came turned out to be the Hou Shizi of Pingyang, his former brother-in-law......

Pingyang Hou Shizi was not panicked at all, pulled the corners of his mouth and smiled, and said to Zhou Yuxuan with deep meaning, "Uncle, don't come to harm......"

After speaking, he lifted his robe and sat opposite Zhou Yuxuan.

Compared with the calmness of Pingyang Hou Shizi, the entourage behind him was a little panicked, and stumbled and said, "Shizi...... We've got ......."

The letter they received was fake, saying that they had discovered something very important and asked the prince to pass Ali personally......

Pingyang Hou Shizi lifted the teapot in front of him and poured a cup of tea, sneering, "Since everyone has already arranged it, we have to come even if we don't come."

It's all here, you go out, I want to have a good talk with my uncle......"

Zhou Yuxuan and Pingyang Hou Shizi looked at each other, and said sarcastically, "I can't afford to be the 'uncle' of the prince, I shouldn't need me to remind you, you have nothing to do with the Zhou family anymore."

Speaking of which, the son of the world is really powerful, escorting a person who is far away in the south of the Yangtze River and being guarded to the capital, and he has no life at all, you are so capable, it is really the first time to know it,

It's the son of this world who doesn't know Mount Tai with eyes. ”

Pingyang Hou Shizi picked up the teacup, turned the teacup around, and looked at the rich patterns on it, as if this was an important thing, as for what Zhou Yuxuan said, it was insignificant.

Zhou Yuxuan looked at him for a while and said, "Why?" ”

He paused for a moment and continued, "What kind of grudge do our Zhou family of the Marquis of Anyuan Mansion have against you, which is worth your calculation?" People's hearts are made of meat, the eldest sister and you have been husband and wife for so many years, and they gave birth to you and served your parents instead of you, why are you so ruthless that you have to kill the Zhou family? ”

Pingyang Hou Shizi's eyes flickered, he lowered his eyes quietly, and said, "I didn't want to talk to me about this today, did you?" ”

Zhou Yuxuan knew that Pingyang Hou Shizi came in so calmly just now, he must have a back hand, he patted the non-existent dust on his body, and said, "It doesn't matter if you don't say it."

You almost ruined Shu'er, and today you are calculating the Zhou family like this, originally because you are the father of your nephews, let you go, after today, it will not be. ”

Pingyang Hou Shizi's eyes were gloomy, and he sneered, "You let me go? Will you let me do that to our family? My mother, who died in front of me, my child, was also taken away.

I'm not happy, how can I make you feel better?

For the sake of glory and wealth, you want to lock up a stupid woman like Xu, but I want her to come out and make waves, if you fancy the future, then your mother will die.

My pain will also be experienced by you. ”

"It's a pity, the Xu family is useless at all, why didn't you that old thing of your family to death?

If you are angry, then you will be very happy. ”

Zhou Yuxuan also chuckled, "You have been in a bad heart since you started marrying Shu'er, and you dare to say that others are calculating you?" Your mother used Shu'er to calculate and think, didn't you think there would be such a day? ”

"Since your mother is going to be used by the Jiang family, she should bear the corresponding consequences."

"Isn't she all right? But my sister was really destroyed in your hands, who did it more excessively? The fierceness in Pingyang Hou Shizi's eyes finally stopped being hidden, and his hands were clenched into fists, and his clenching sounded.

"Do you think that if you catch the fifth master, you will be able to wait here for the rabbit?" Pingyang Hou Shizi raised the corners of his mouth, changed his face, he looked at Zhou Yuxuan leisurely,

"Speaking of which, I knew something was wrong at the door, but I came in anyway, uncle, you probably didn't expect it to be me."

Zhou Yuxuan shook his head calmly, he really didn't expect it to be him, he thought about a lot of people, possible opponents, and thought about it again, but he didn't expect it to be him.

It's just that, where did Pingyang Hou get the manpower?

The Marquis of Pingyang took refuge in the four princes, but the four princes are not guaranteed by themselves now, how can there be manpower allocated to the prince of Pingyang Hou.

He thought again in a blink of an eye, the Pingyang Hou Mansion is a family, and there are still 3,000 nails in the broken ship.

Pingyang Hou Shizi stood up with a smile, looked at Zhou Yuxuan on the kang condescendingly, and looked at Zhou Yuxuan almost with disdain,

"You say, why did I come in when I knew there was a problem?"

Although he was smiling, his eyes were cold and cold, and there was no smile at all, like a cold stone, which made people numb.

Zhou Yan in the dark also saw the killing intent in his eyes, and couldn't help but rush out, but he saw Zhou Yuxuan sitting on the kang majestically, motionless.

He held back again.

I saw Pingyang Hou Shizi's gaze swept to the dark place, raised his chin, sneered and raised his eyebrows, "I have something to do, so I'll leave first, uncle, I won't accompany you." ”

As if he suddenly remembered something, he turned around and said, "By the way, since you know that the matter is related to me, guess what will happen to me next?" ”

His words were full of malice and disdain.

Zhou Yuxuan calmly raised his eyes and looked at Hou Shizi of Pingyang, "You can't do this alone, who is the person behind you?" ”

Pingyang Hou Shizi looked around, "Are you underestimating our Meng family?" ”

Zhou Yuxuan just looked at him coldly, and said word by word, "Say everything, I will leave you with all the corpses." ”

Pingyang Hou Shizi was stunned for a moment, and then laughed, "Zhou Yuxuan, do you really think you are very smart?" This is my territory, do you think I'll run out of hole cards? ”

"Really?" Zhou Yuxuan replied coldly, stood up and glanced at him with a smile, "Since I dare to come, am I still afraid of your hole cards?" ”

"Keeping you is just for you to survive."

After he finished speaking, Zhou Yan and the people he brought poured out of the shadows.

Pingyang Hou Shizi's face did not change, but he snorted coldly, "Then try it." ”

With that, he clapped his palms, and another group of people poured in from outside.

He didn't look at Zhou Yuxuan, and said to the entourage who had just come in with him, "I'll leave it to you here, be sure not to leave a trace." ”

The disposition he said was to kill Zhou Yuxuan, he said to Zhou Yuxuan with a smile, "Speaking of which, your Zhou family is really pitiful, if you die, probably that old thing will go to succeed again, it's really pitiful...... Tsk......"

The old thing he said is the eldest princess who protects the country, Marquis An Yuan is a successor, if Zhou Yuxuan really has an accident, according to the current age of Marquis An Yuan, it will be difficult to have more children, if you want to keep the title, you can only continue to pass the succession......

"I've been passing all my life, I'm really ashamed of the ancestors of your Zhou family......"

Zhou Yuxuan sneered and looked at Pingyang Hou Shizi, "Then try it, who is more pitiful." ”

Pingyang Hou Shizi had little patience, and made a killing gesture on his neck in front of his entourage.

It's just that Zhou Yuxuan's people are faster than his people, and in the blink of an eye, the people on both sides fought together, and Zhou Yuxuan retreated outside the circle with his hands behind his back.

Zhou Yan pounced directly at Pingyang Hou Shizi.

They are both military generals, and the martial arts of Pingyang Hou Shizi are not weak, but the people brought by Zhou Yuxuan are all good hands transferred by Zhou Yan, and Xiao Yue has sent people from the dark guard camp over.

Under the siege of everyone, the Hou Shizi of Pingyang was quickly captured, and the people he brought saw that the master was arrested, and they stopped and gave up resistance.

"Leave me alone, hurry up and kill Zhou Yuxuan......" Pingyang Hou Shizi roared unwillingly.

There was no mirror in front of him, he couldn't see his appearance at this time, his face was pale, his eyes were red, desperate and crazy, like a lost dog.

"A person always has to pay for what he does." Zhou Yuxuan's voice condensed, "On that day, we will let you go, if you are safe, the life of the Pingyang Marquis Mansion can go on." But you, instead of being grateful, are resentful!

I make such hands and feet behind my back. ”

"Meng Fan, I'll only give you one chance."

"If you tell everything, I will keep your whole body, and I will also let Shu'er's children burn incense for you in the future."

Whole corpse, child......

These words kept swirling in the mind of Pingyang Hou Shizi.

His face turned pale and he replied completely instinctively, "I won't say that." ”

Zhou Yuxuan looked at Pingyang Hou Shizi expressionlessly, and only heard him say, "I won't say it, I will die if I say it, it is better to keep the people behind the scenes and let them deal with you......"

Zhou Yuxuan pulled the corners of his lips and revealed a cruel and cold smile, "Meng Fan, you can't help but take yourself too seriously. ”

"It doesn't matter if you don't say anything in the future, I will find out who is behind you, and everything will be solved when the time comes."

"And you? What will happen to you? With the emperor's fancy to me now, as long as you are charged with a crime and given to the Pingyang Hou Mansion, then the Pingyang Hou Mansion will collapse and disintegrate, and your family will not even be buried, so you will be a lonely ghost forever. ”

The fierce eyes of Hou Shizi of Pingyang were full of despair.

Zhou Yuxuan's words were cruel and cold, but they were all true.

Now, he has no way back.

He was hesitating whether to say it or not, in exchange for a good thing in Pingyang Houfu.

"Shizi, these people are very suspicious." Zhou Yan escorted the people brought by Hou Shizi of Pingyang to the courtyard and tied them up, and suddenly shouted into the house, and the people also stood by the door, wanting to come in.

Zhou Yuxuan left Pingyang Hou Shizi and was about to go out.

Pingyang Hou Shizi's pupils contracted suddenly, and he gritted his teeth and shouted, "Wait." ”

Zhou Yuxuan looked at it coldly.

"The people who helped me go to Jiangnan to bring people back were the people of the King of Zhongyi, even the fifth master. At the beginning, Shu'er said that her mother-in-law had done something wrong, but she didn't tell me what it was.

I found out only after someone from the Loyal King contacted me.

When I asked to marry Shu'er, it was King Zhongyi who asked me to do it.

Including the people I brought with me today, they are all good hands from the King of Loyalty. ”

Zhou Yuxuan pursed the corners of his lips, and his eyes flashed with pain.

"What else do you know, tell me 1510."

Pingyang Hou Shizi's face was gloomy, and he gritted his teeth, "You swear, you will definitely treat the other people in Pingyang Hou Mansion well......"

Zhou Yuxuan kicked him on the knee, and after eating, Pingyang Hou Shizi knelt on the ground, "I said, whether you say it or not, I will find out the people behind you." ”

Pingyang Hou Shizi's face was colorless, and his whole body trembled violently.

Zhou Yuxuan didn't speak again, waiting for the choice of Pingyang Hou Shizi.

He's already on a strange journey, and he has no choice.

After a long time, Pingyang Hou Shizi gritted his teeth and said, "I said ......"

As Pingyang Hou Shizi said all the unknown things word by word, Zhou Yuxuan's face became more and more ugly, and his hands were clenched into fists......

In the end, Hou Shizi of Pingyang finally finished speaking, and Zhou Yuxuan didn't talk to him anymore, just looked at Zhou Yan.

Zhou Yan nodded slightly, stepped forward, and took out a porcelain bottle from his sleeve, which contained a black pill.

Pingyang Hou Shizi stared at the pill deadly, his eyes showing despair and sadness.

It's a pity that no one sympathizes with him.

Zhou Yuxuan is close at hand, perhaps, before he dies, he can drag another cushion, so that even if he dies, it is not wronged.

The last crazy thought passed through Pingyang Hou Shizi's heart, and while slowly taking the pill, he was ready to do it.

Zhou Yuxuan stood in front of him, looking at him with a sneer, and a mocking voice sounded,

"Do you Murphy want to fight before you die? I advise you to die peacefully, otherwise, the fate of the Pingyang Marquis Mansion will be in your thoughts. ”

Pingyang Hou Shizi's body stiffened, and his red eyes stared at Zhou Yuxuan deadly.

Zhou Yuxuan's expression did not move, and neither did the person.

Zhou Yan's whole body straightened, standing beside Zhou Yuxuan, looking at Pingyang Hou Shizi vigilantly.

Pingyang Hou Shizi said the last words, "Zhou Yuxuan, I will take the first step today, and soon, your family will also come to accompany me." ”

Then, putting the pill in his mouth, he laughed maniacally.

Laughing and laughing, tears welled up in his eyes again.

He closed his eyes and waited for the pill's toxicity to kick in, and in a few moments, he fell to the ground.

Zhou Yuxuan's face was expressionless, and his expression was indifferent, as if there was just a pile of mud on the ground.

"Shizi." Zhou Yan asked cautiously, "Isn't it cheaper for him to die like this?" He started calculating our family so early. “

Zhou Yuxuan turned to look at Zhou Yan, and said indifferently, "How is it possible?" What he ate was just a drug, which Bai Feng used for me to defend myself. How could I let him go so easily?

It's not an exaggeration to cut him with a thousand knives. That's how you ......"

He instructed Zhou Yan.

Zhou Yan nodded as he listened, his mouth constantly grinning.

When Zhou Yuxuan returned to the mansion, it was already the fourth watch, and the eldest princess wanted to stay up, but in the end, she was old and went to sleep.

As soon as the eldest princess of the protector fell asleep, Gu Nian and the county lord of Jingning were also driven to rest by their respective men.

Leaving Gu Shi'an and Weng and his son-in-law to play chess while waiting for Zhou Yuxuan to come back.

When Zhou Yuxuan came back, the two happened to finish a game of chess, and Xiao Yue lost.

"How's it going?" Xiao Yue asked Zhou Yuxuan while cleaning up the chessboard.

Gu Shi'an also looked at Zhou Yuxuan and waited for him to answer.

Zhou Yuxuan was a little depressed, he said to Gu Shi'an, "It was done by the Hou Shizi of Pingyang, he blamed our family for forcing Mrs. Pingyang Hou to death, and his grandmother killed his sister, and later Shu'er took the child from the Hou Mansion and left the mansion." Now it's even farther away. ”

"It's like getting my mother back, and it also makes our family uneasy, and at the same time, once the things that my mother does are known, whether it is my father or me, I will be impeached by the imperial historian, and my father will definitely be punished for the crime of not governing the family strictly, and if I make trouble again, I probably won't be able to keep the title.

And I, with such a mother who poisoned her mother-in-law, will also lose her reputation, how dare the emperor reuse me? Even if the emperor is willing, who will obey me when I go out for a walk in the future? ”

Xiao Yue and Gu Shi'an were silent, Pingyang Hou Shizi's move was indeed poisonous enough.

killed a few birds with one stone, and avenged the revenge at that time.

"Someone caught? How to dispose of it? Xiao Yue put all the chess pieces back into the can, cleaned his hands, and looked at Zhou Yuxuan.

Zhou Yuxuan said softly, "I have already dealt with it, and now, there is another matter." ”

"Already disposed of? How to dispose of it? Weng and his son-in-law looked at Zhou Yuxuan at the same time.

Pingyang Hou Shizi is still a prince in the end, even if Zhou Yuxuan catches him on the spot, how to deal with it is a huge problem.

Killing is always a failure.

Zhou Yuxuan said 'um', and there was nothing to hide from the two of them, and said, "Doesn't he like to hide behind his back and play with people?" This time, I will let him show his face in front of the world. ”

Xiao Yue and Gu Shi'an glanced at each other and said, "Then what?" ”

"I gave him the medicine that Bai Feng gave me, threw him in the house in Tea Tree Hutong, and set a fire there."

He looked out the dark window and looked back at Xiao Yue and Gu Shi'an, "I want him to be ruined, even if he doesn't die, he won't be able to raise his head from now on." ”

"You just said there's another thing, what's it?"

Zhou Yuxuan pursed his lips and said, "This matter has something to do with my uncle. ”

Gu Shi'an looked at him in astonishment and said, "What does it have to do with me?" ”

He narrowed his eyes, "You wouldn't say that Jing Ning's matter had something to do with him, would you?" ”

Zhou Yuxuan nodded heavily, he didn't believe what Pingyang Hou Shizi said.

"It's not related to the prince of Pingyanghou, but related to Pingyanghou! At the beginning, the Marquis of Pingyang was in charge of the city's defense, didn't we say why that man was able to smuggle people out without knowing it? It's because Pingyang Hou put water in it.

Also, he said that the person who really instructed him to send his mother back was King Chungyi......"

Xiao Yue and Gu Shi'an suddenly breathed a sigh of relief when they heard that it was related to King Zhongyi, and all this seemed to make sense.

The bugs that appeared in Izumoji that day also appeared before Jingning's 'death'.

And the bug, according to Guan Jinghe, was given to her by King Zhongyi.

The situation is so tense that no one knows what will happen in the next moment.

If it is a loyal king, it can be regarded as an old acquaintance, and an enemy who has already formed a feud is better than a new enemy.

Since he is a loyal and righteous king, he can also prescribe the right medicine.

Because of the matter of the flying insects, as well as the things designed in the Jin Palace, I have long had an incomprehensible hatred with the King of Zhongyi.

When I got to the palace to poison the matter, there was another layer.

It's already messy anyway, so it's even more messy.

However, what is the hatred between King Zhongyi and the Marquis of Anyuan's Mansion and the eldest princess who protects the country? Moreover, at that time, he had not yet become a prince, but he was just a prince of the Zhongyi Palace......

What did he smuggle Jing Ning out for?

Even what he did after that was already inferior to a beast.

Is it true that people are not allowed to look like? The King of Loyalty and Righteousness looks loyal and honest, who would have thought that his heart is blacker than ink? The work is simply outrageous.

Gu Shi'an recalled the events of more than ten years ago, at that time, King Zhongyi did not appear in the capital.

What kind of hatred is it?

It was dawning soon.

The men discussed how to deal with the Loyal King, and how to raise the level of defense in the home.

When the sky showed the white belly of the fish, he didn't sleep all night, and Zhou Yan, who was staring at the tea tree alley, also came back to report the situation over there.

Fifty percent of the soldiers and horses came out of a burning house in Chashu Hutong and a group of people trapped in the fire, including Pingyang Hou Shizi.

And what is even more shocking is that Hou Shizi of Pingyang was naked when he was rescued.

The commander of the Terracotta Division recognized at a glance the Hou Shizi of Pingyang, whose face had been blackened by the smoke, and was so shocked that he didn't know what to do for a while, because Hou Shizi of Pingyang inhaled excessive smoke and fell unconscious, and the number of onlookers was too large, so he had to disperse the crowd and invite the doctor over.

The most important thing is that the officials below checked the surrounding situation and found that there were four fire points, all of which had traces of fire oil, which indicated that it was arson.

Since ancient times, murder and arson have been juxtaposed, unforgivable big mouths. What's more, the fire also burned down many houses next door.

Although the tea tree alley is not inhabited by dignitaries, because of the good environment, many scholars love to live here, and the vassal style is elegant.

Some of the people of the Imperial Observatory are also here, and the family houses are all implicated.

Either the shadow wall was burned, or the embroidery building of the girl's house was destroyed.

Yushi has never been easy to mess with, a mouth, just like a general's knife, can kill people.

They asked their subordinates to come over to inquire about the news, and the detailed news.

The commander of the Terracotta Division did not dare to slack off, so that the people below investigated more and more carefully, and soon found many eyewitnesses.

Eyewitnesses all said that it was a good opportunity to see Pingyang Hou Shizi appear in this house, and also said that the people under Pingyang Hou Shizi were very fierce, and they scolded and scolded at a glance, saying that they would kill the whole family......

After such an investigation, the Terracotta Division quickly found the fifth master according to this, and in an inn, when he found it, the fifth master was already dead.

However, he left a letter, the content of which was to say that the Hou Shizi of Pingyang had done bad things, and that he was usually not right, and he was not afraid of meat and vegetarian food, and pretended to be high on his face.

In fact, he is embarrassed inside, he loves to mess with flowers and grass, and there is no servant girl in Pingyang Houfu who is not touched by him.

In the end, he also fell in love with his wife, who was a cook in the Hou Mansion.

His wife did not obey, and the Hou Shizi of Pingyang used it to force.

His head was green, and he was not angry in his heart, but he was just a small people, and he didn't dare to do anything to the Hou Shizi of Pingyang, so he could only forget it like this.

However, who knows, since the Hou Shizi of Pingyang has been getting more and more excessive, he even came to his house during the day, drove him out, and occupied his wife.

He originally wanted to set fire to Pingyang Hou Shizi, but he was too timid, and after he came back from buying fire oil, he didn't dare to do it, and he was discovered by Pingyang Hou Shizi and beat him up.

Under his shame, he felt that life was better than death, so he bought two taels of arsenic, but he was unwilling to die silently like this, so he announced the crime of Pingyang Hou Shizi.

This letter surprised everyone......

At that time, when the Marquis of Anyuan Mansion and the Marquis of Pingyang were separated from each other, everyone thought it was strange.

Everyone never dreamed that there was such a good-looking drama in it, which was even more exciting than what the storyteller of the teahouse said.

What's more, I didn't expect the noble-looking Pingyang Hou Shizi to be such a person, who didn't love his wife who was golden and noble at home, and actually liked lowly servant women the most......

Simply, this is!

Xiao Yue and Gu Shi'an listened to what Zhou Yan said, and looked at Zhou Yuxuan, although this move is not bright enough, but it is still too bright to deal with the Hou Shizi of Pingyang who is messing around in the dark like a stinky mouse.

With the result, as for King Zhongyi, it is not something that can be brought down in a moment and a half, Xiao Yue stretched his waist, "I haven't slept all night, I'm sleepy." ”

After saying that, he got up and prepared to go to the guest house to rest.

Gu Shi'an patted Zhou Yuxuan's shoulder, "You're also tired, go and rest, wait for Nanshan to go to the yamen and say, everyone in the family will ask for leave today." ”

Zhou Yuxuan nodded indifferently, the fate of Pingyang Hou Shizi was not bad enough, he still had to think of adding more fire.

Immediately, he said to Gu Shi'an, "Uncle, you and the prince go to rest, I'll go to the palace and tell the emperor about the matter." ”

Gu Shi'an thought about it and nodded, "How to deal with the prince of Pingyang when the time comes, and the emperor's will,"

While he was talking, the housekeeper of the Marquis of Anyuan's Mansion walked in and reported, "Shizi, King Zhongyi has come to the door and said that he wants to see Her Royal Highness the princess......"

Zhou Yuxuan frowned, looked at the carving in the corner of the wall, the hour had not yet arrived, it was too strange for King Zhongyi to come over so early......

"Grandmother's side? Where's Daddy? Invite the king of Zhongyi to the flower hall, and we will wash our faces and come. Zhou Yuxuan commanded.
