Wang Zuo replied: "Lord Xie's words are very reasonable, as for Hu Jie's betrayal, I have some ideas, everyone knows that I came out of the Xingwang Mansion, and I have enough understanding of the old prince and the little prince, to say a word of disrespect to the deceased, the little prince is not as easy to get along with as everyone sees on the surface, he has been very stubborn since he was a child, and he is a little mean to his subordinates, and he can't tolerate others to make a little mistake, I'm afraid he doesn't know when he offended people, Hu Jie has been in the palace for nearly ten years, Maybe some resentment is accumulating over time? ”

Duan Fei nodded and said, "I don't know Hu Jie's personality, but looking at his demeanor towards Chunxi's death, he is a person of great affection, so he shouldn't betray the prince for a little grudge on weekdays, right?" It's a big deal, it's almost the same to quit and leave, huh? ”

When everyone agreed with Duan Fei's words, he snorted and shouted, "That's not right! It's true that Hu Jie is a person who values affection, but ...... Do you think he is really deploring a sister who is not related by blood? ”

Except for Wang Zuo, everyone else was not at the scene, so Duan Fei's eyes also looked at Wang Zuo, Wang Zuo pondered for a while, and said: "My lord, I didn't pay attention to him at that time, I have been with him for a few years, and I still have a certain understanding of him, and his heartache for Chunxi should not be false." ”

Duan Fei said: "I also know that he does feel sorry for Chunxi, but I think it is beyond the scope of his sister, do you remember why he chased Zhu Chen in anger in the end and was taken away?" ”

Wang Zuo thought for a while and said, "It seems that I heard that Chunxi was raped by Zhu Chen, right?" ”

Duan Fei shook his head and said: "No, the first time he heard that Chunxi was raped by Zhu Chen was a long time ago, he was also very angry at that time, and he calmed down after being persuaded twice, and then he suddenly became angry because I questioned Zhu Chen in public that he had raped Chunxi twice, one of which was on the night of King Xing's disappearance, Hu Jie knew that King Xing was fake, and there were other people who raped Chunxi, Hu Jie's anger was out of control, maybe he secretly liked Chunxi, and it was unbearable for King Zhenxing to bully Chunxi, not to mention that fake?" So he suddenly went violently, couldn't help but rush out of the palace, and went to settle accounts with the fake. ”

Everyone looked at each other after listening to Duan Fei's analysis, although this explanation is a bit unbelievable, but it is reasonable, as a subordinate, Hu Jie likes the master's maid is certainly a little inappropriate, but in these years, the master has promised the maid to the scholar and the family abound, and Chunxi was not directly arranged to take care of King Xiaoxing after being bought into the palace, it is normal for a guard to fall in love with an ordinary maid, but just find time to ask the master for instructions, and they can achieve them, but King Xiaoxing changes the maid for diligence, Somehow it was Chunxi's turn, and Hu Jie must have been very disappointed.

Chunxi is doing well by King Xing's side, Hu Jie is not afraid of hardship, but he can't see his beloved being wronged, and his resentment accumulates day by day, and finally brews into a conspiracy.

Hu Jie's motive is also there, there seems to be no doubt about this case, the rest is to arrest people, Duan Fei ordered: "This case is very important, everyone work hard, copy more portraits and paste them all over the streets and alleys, and these three suspects will be arrested within three days, otherwise everyone will not have to celebrate the New Year, do you hear?" ”

Everyone replied, "Yes, my lord, we will dig them out even if we dig three feet into the ground, and we will never dare to be lazy." ”

Duan Fei bowed his head and said: "Everyone is busy, this official is sitting in Beizhen Fusi today and will not go home, if you have any new news, come and report it immediately, and the meeting will be dismissed." ”

Everyone dispersed in a hurry, Xie Zhijun deliberately pulled at the end, and after everyone else left, he suddenly turned back to Duan Fei and said, "My lord, I still have a question in my heart......

Duan Fei said: "There is no need to hide anything between us, if there is anything to say Wenhui, you can just say it." ”

Xie Zhijun said solemnly: "My lord, a prince, what is the private stand-in?" This is a taboo, not to mention that this stand-in is not only after being sealed, maybe King Xing had a stand-in when he was a child, isn't it strange? ”

Duan Fei stared at him and said: "Wen Hui, I understand what you mean, but Anlu Prefecture is not Nanchang, and King Xing has only been passed down for two generations, and it is not as good as Ning Fan, which has been passed down for more than five generations and more than 100 years, this is impossible." ”

Xie Zhijun said: "I also think so in my humble position, so I didn't mention it in front of everyone, but this is always a suspicious point, don't be careless, as long as it involves the battle for imperial power, no matter how small, you must not take it lightly." ”

Duan Fei nodded and said, "I understand, thank you Wenhui for reminding me, I will be careful." ”

Xie Zhijun nodded approvingly, turned around and left, but left a big question in Duan Fei's heart.

Xie Zhijun is right, a prince who has been sealed and eaten and waited for death, does he need to find and train a stand-in since he was a child? This big boy who looks kind and cautious, the little prince, has become more and more mysterious after his death.

Duan Fei was really tired after a busy day, he sat on the chair and closed his eyes for a while, remembering the case in his heart, deducing it over and over again, and felt that there was nothing missing, so he relaxed a little.

I don't know how long it took, but suddenly someone came to report: "My lord, Lord Shuncheon Prefect asks to see you." ”

Duan Fei opened his eyes, only to realize that the red candle had already burned halfway, and the time was almost midday, Duan Fei replied, "Please Si Da." ”

Si Gongcheng walked in with two officials and saluted Duan Fei: "Lord Duan, according to the instructions of the lord, the lower official issued a notice to the west of Chaotian Palace to reward the recovery of King Xing's relics, and now it is basically complete, so the lower official specially sent it to Lord Duan in person. ”

The two servants each held a tray in their hands, and the clothes were neatly stacked on the top, Duan Fei casually picked up the royal blue gown placed on the top, shook it open, and saw that there were cuts in the front and back of the gown, stained with blood, the material of the gown was just ordinary flannel, and it was worth a few taels of silver when I bought it, and the clothes that were torn like this were stripped off, and the people near the bamboo carpentry workshop west of Chaotian Palace would not be poorer than beggars, right?

In addition to this long shirt, the other clothing materials that were confiscated were much better, Duan Fei held an ordinary blue shirt in his left hand, and touched the soft gold color jacquard satin brocade jacket in his right hand, feeling a little strange, but thinking about it, it is clear that Hu Jie and his accomplices were in a hurry when they dropped Bao Xingwang in the toilet in the backyard of the bun shop, and they could only be broken at any time, so the clothes on Xingwang's body would be superior on the inside and inferior on the outside, and this blue robe should have been worn on the stand-in.

Si Gongcheng saw Duan Fei staring at his clothes for a while, and couldn't help but remind: "Lord Duan, Lord Xing's clothes are all marked, adults can open the lower corner of the clothes, and you can see a red thread sewn on the inner stitching. ”

Duan Fei sighed: "This just confirms that the deceased is indeed King Xing, Master Si, hand over these things to Luo An to deal with, I don't know if those three magic sticks have been caught?" ”

Si Gongcheng replied: "There has been no news yet, but the lower official has ordered someone to go to the Five Cities Soldiers and Horses Division to investigate whether there have been similar people who have left the city on these two days. ”

Duan Fei said: "Very good, this official will also order the Jinyi Guard to search and cooperate with all his might, and as soon as there is news, let each other know." ”

Si Gongcheng saw that Duan Fei had a tired face, and retreated with interest, Duan Fei rubbed his temples, he was indeed a little tired, today he was going back and forth to handle the case, it didn't matter physically, but mentally he was a little unbearable, it was not an ordinary person who died, but a prince, and Princess Yongfu's reaction, which made Duan Fei really have a headache.

"It would be nice if Rong'er was here...... Duan Fei said in his heart, his heart was suddenly filled with thoughts about Su Rong.

"The Ice and Snow Maiden is in the mortal dust,

The shore of Xuanwu Lake is ...... sunny"

Duan Fei vaguely seemed to see the blue waves on the lake, Su Rong, who was dressed in white like snow, came to the waves, Duan Fei happily opened his arms and wanted to take her into his arms, but Su Rong drew his sword with a cold face and picked it lightly, like a mountain sword qi broke through the air, setting off a monstrous wave on the surface of the lake, Duan Fei turned around and ran, but a burnt face suddenly appeared in front of him......

Duan Fei woke up in shock, and when he opened his eyes, there was no lake in front of him, let alone Su Rong, only closed doors and windows.

Duan Fei remembered that he didn't close the door after Si Gongcheng left, so he calmed down and asked, "Who is on duty tonight?" What time is it? ”

A man wearing a new night suit of brocade clothes jumped down from the beam, bowed to Duan Fei, and said, "My lord, it's my ugly cow who is on duty at night, and it's the third watch now." ”

Erniu is one of the orphans taken in by Xiang Hao at the beginning, after Pingmao's accident, these orphans were borrowed by Xiang Hao to arrange them to be arranged to learn art in various sects, they are indeed very hard-working, more than 20 children are basically very promising, Duan Fei took the opportunity of rectifying Jinyiwei to invite the various sects to send disciples to join Jinyiwei, and at the same time ordered Zhu Yu to contact these children in advance, and selected twelve of them as personal guards to cultivate, Erniu is one of them, he is a Shaolin disciple, should be called Uncle Yuanjing, However, his strength is not much worse than that of the round mirror.

No one can know what Xiang Hao wants to do to cultivate these children, Duan Fei is the successor designated by Xiang Hao, these people are naturally in his pocket, with Zhu Yu, Hua Ming and others as guarantors, plus Duan Fei used some means to subdue them, and now they have become Duan Fei's henchmen, in the name of the zodiac, but they are declared to be the twelve King Kongs.

Duan Fei said: "It's the third watch, has anyone come to look for me?" ”

The ugly cow replied, "No." ”

Duan Fei stood up, pushed the door out, there was still light snow in the sky, and it was dark between the sky and the earth, Duan Fei took a deep breath, looked at the endless sky, and said in his heart: "Tianmen, Tianmen, don't let Rong'er come back if you have the guts, see how I clean you up!" ”

was gritting his teeth, only to see a flash of fire light outside the courtyard, a group of people held torches high and walked quickly, when they approached the courtyard, these people slowed down, only to see Wang Zuo striding into the courtyard with a torch, although the stride was large, but the feet were light, he saw Duan Fei standing in the corridor, and then walked over quickly, and said: "See the lord of the humble position, it's all three watches, and the adult hasn't rested yet?" ”

Duan Fei said: "I took a nap just now, you hurried back, is there any news of Hu Jie and them?" ”

Wang Zuo said: "That's right, my lord, we have found the guy who pretended to be King Xing, but we were a step late, when Hu Jie just left, the guy who pretended to be King Xing was stabbed in the chest, and there was only one breath left. ”

Duan Fei frowned and said, "Then what are you waiting for?" Lead the way, I have something to ask him, but don't let him die! ”
