"The fugitive is still in the house, and for the sake of safety, additional personnel must be sent to protect you." The prince changed his strategy and stopped searching this meditation pavilion. Instead, he decided to narrow down the scope of his surveillance and guard the Meditation Pavilion in a difficult way.

There are three floors inside and three floors outside, and even if Banyue hides Mr. Bookkeeper here, he can't take it out. Cover him!

And as long as he dares to let those people show his face, he will immediately take action, destroy the chips in his hand, and confirm his crime of kidnapping Mr. Bookkeeper, so that he will be more guilty than a crime, and there will be no day to turn over.

Ban Yue showed an indifferent attitude, and did not object, but apologized: "Your Highness is thoughtful. It's just that the housekeeper in the house is not there, it's a little messy, and no one even pours tea for His Royal Highness, so I'm terrified. ”

The prince pretended to be confused: "The housekeeper is Uncle Qian, right?" 'If Uncle Qian returns safely, the person His Highness thinks will be won. What does this mean, this palace does not understand. ”

"If Uncle Qian can return, Mr. Bookkeeper will return to His Highness." Banyue picks out.

"What is the use of Mr. Bungu asking for a bookkeeper? That's what the criminal department wants. The prince's eyes turned cold, "Could it be that Mr. Bookkeeper is here with you?" ”

"How could they be here? It's just that because of the attack on the road, they are so frightened that they don't dare to show their faces, and privately entrust Zai Neng to show them the way to save their lives. In the next place, because of Uncle Qian's disappearance, out of selfishness, he could only make this decision. ”

"Uncle Qian is just a subordinate, so important to you?" The prince asked suspiciously.

"I have been taken care of by Uncle Qian since I was a child, and Uncle Qian is like a father." Ban Yue's gaze was firm.

I see!

The prince's head was spinning rapidly, and he hesitated whether to put Uncle Qian back to exchange accounts with him.

"Bang tom!" Suddenly, there was a slight thud overhead.

The prince's ears were tipped, and he looked up, and a pinch of dust fell into his eyes.

He rubbed his eyes and laughed wickedly: "Banyue, did you say that the fugitive is hiding upstairs?" ”

"Maybe it's a mouse, the upstairs is full of books, and in addition to liking it below, rats also like it." Banyue remained silent.

"Safety is paramount, and the palace must be visited by people." The crown prince finally found a reason, saying that he could not oppose Banyue, and ordered loudly, "Someone! ”

When the forbidden army heard the order, they swarmed in, quickly occupied each room, searched carefully, and did not let go of half a brick.

On the second floor is a pointed attic filled with bookshelves, each filled with bamboo slips.

The Forbidden Army marched forward in a carpet pattern, inspecting rows and rows of bookshelves.

Somewhere, they found a roll of bamboo slips on the ground, and they became nervous, slowed down, hunched over, and used the bookshelf as a cover, cautiously moving forward.

"Meow-" A small white shadow suddenly flew over their heads, stepped lightly on the top of the bookshelf, and fled.

It turned out to be a cat!

They breathed a sigh of relief, sped up their movements, and searched from beginning to end, finding nothing.

"Report to Your Highness, no one has been found!" The little boss went to the staircase to report to the prince.

The prince looked at the bookshelves in disappointment, and turned to go downstairs.

Banyue waited in the study, holding a cat in his hand.

The cat's white fur was long and thick, covering its legs.

Its two eyes, one golden and the other blue, like jewels, stared coldly at the prince, just like the cold eyes of the same Yue.

The prince felt that it was like a little goblin, looking at his master.

"This cat is cute." The prince couldn't help but boast, trying to ease the atmosphere through cats.

Banyue was silent in the sunlight that poured in from the window, and his fingers gently stroked the cat's hair.

The cat narrowed one eye and buried its head in his arms as if it were enjoying it.

When his hand stopped, it licked the back of his hand beautifully with its tongue.

He and this cat together formed an aura of arrogance in the world, which made the prince suddenly feel that his noble status was not even as good as the cat in his hand.

The cold field was terrible, the prince's goal was not achieved, and he was unwilling, so he cleared his throat and broke the silence: "This cat must have caught a lot of mice?" ”

"No, it's a lazy cat, it doesn't catch mice, but it scares mice away. So, it's kind of useful. Banyue replied.

"Meow-" The cat seemed to understand human speech and sang triumphantly, and the atmosphere was enlivened again.

"Yes, you have so many books, they are almost comparable to the collection of books in this palace. If there were no cats, rats would run rampant. ”

"Your Highness searched the Meditation Pavilion and found nothing, should you take this cat away, and you can explain it to the emperor?" Ban Yue's words are sarcastic.

"Banyue, don't laugh, this palace is just worried about your safety."

"In the General's Mansion, except for the meditation pavilion, these books are worth a few silver taels, and nothing else is valuable. It's also a cheap life, so I'm never worried about myself, but I miss Uncle Qian very much. Uncle Qian is getting old—"

"This is easy to do," the prince interrupted Ban Yue's words, and understood what Pan Yue meant, he wanted to return to Uncle Qian, and he didn't want to stalemate, anyway, Uncle Qian was like a chicken rib in his hands, and he exchanged him for Mr. Bill, so he said, "There are a lot of people in this palace, and I will definitely help you find a way to find Uncle Qian, but this palace has thought of a way, and you have to know how to repay it." ”

"Uncle Qian is like a father, if His Highness can find Uncle Qian and send him back, he will be rewarded by a spring." Banyue put down the cat in his hand and made a gesture to the prince.

"Well said." The crown prince showed a generous appearance, "This palace believes that you will do what you say." ”

---------------------

Uncle Qian returned to the General's Mansion with a scar, and when he heard Jin Ning say that he was exchanged for Mr. General Bookkeeper, he couldn't lie down, so he immediately got out of bed and staggered to find Banyue.

The forbidden army guarding in front of the Meditation Pavilion doesn't know when it will be withdrawn, it seems that the prince has already obtained Mr. Accounts, otherwise he will not let go easily.

Pan Yue was reading in the study as always, without distractions, and Uncle Qian didn't look up when he went in.

"General~"

Uncle Qian bowed to Banyue, which alarmed him.

He hurriedly got up, helped Uncle Qian, and said with concern: "Uncle Qian, you should take care of your injuries." ”

"General, the villain is about to die, it is not a pity to die, why bother to involve the general, so that the general can't clear his name?" Uncle Qian was very anxious.

"It's okay, Uncle Qian, it's a big deal that we'll go back to our old business together. If Uncle Qian is gone, what is the point of my life? ”

"No, General, the villain is worthless, and you, not only the hope of the villain, but also the hope of everyone. So, villain, please find a way to get those bookkeepers back. ”

"You don't have to worry about this, I will do my best to protect myself, please trust me, Uncle Qian." Ban Yue comforted, "Only if you are safe and sound, can I do things quietly." ”

As he spoke, he glanced at Jin Ning.

Jin Ning hurriedly supported Uncle Qian and persuaded him to rest.

Tears welled up in Uncle Qian's eyes, and he left with Jin Ning, nagging all the way: "How can I meet such a good person as the general." ”

"Uncle Qian, don't talk about it, take care of your injuries, the general hasn't eaten anything delicious for a few times."

"Okay, okay." Uncle Qian nodded again and again, "I will take good care of my injuries and make the best food for the general." I see he's lost weight again. ”

At this time, Banyue was indeed thinner than before returning to Beijing, his face was more angular, his thick eyebrows were thicker, and his eyes were brighter.

Sit and study quietly every day, don't do anything else, it stands to reason that you should grow fat.

But the heart is more tired than the body, and the cruel reality makes him always vigilant, and he naturally can't get fat.

He was not worried about himself, but about the people around him.

If they fail, who will protect them? If he is dismissed, will his promise to the coastal people not be empty words?

The crown prince has always been ignorant of the suffering of the people, and only thinks about his own little calculations, and whoever does not submit to him, he will do everything to rectify the other party, even if it is out of nothing.

This time with the prince, every step may go wrong.

In order to prevent the prince from making a bad move, Banyue thought that he could not leave Mr. Accounts in the mansion any longer.

So while Jin Ning was delivering the letter, he thought of a way to let the three bookkeepers pretend to be family members, and Xiao Ji, who was in charge of cleaning in the house, took them out of the house with the dung buckets.

The guards at the door smelled the smell and didn't have time to dodge, so they didn't have the heart to look at their faces carefully, and in this way, the three bookkeepers left the general's mansion smoothly and hid in Guan Ji Yuxing.

When Uncle Qian was released, Ban Yue asked Mr. Fang to inform the bookkeeper to go to the nearest yamen to report the case.

Naturally, the prince quickly got the news of Mr. Bookkeeper and immediately brought them under control.

This is tantamount to Banyue keeping his promise and handing over Mr. Bookkeeper to the prince in this way.

Uncle Qian was rescued, and Mr. Bookkeeper no longer had to worry about his life, but it also meant that Banyue now had no witness.

He didn't know if Hanxiao would be on his side, so he could only be prepared to be ruined.
