The Bo family, the second prince, Concubine Yu, Empress Dowager Qian, and the people in the court who are inextricably linked with them.

When the time comes, none of them will be able to escape.

Emperor Xuan of the Ming Dynasty said quietly: "Qi Wenfu is the most upright character, I'm afraid even he is scolding the faint monarch in his heart." ”

Zhou Lian's expression tightened, where did he dare to respond to Emperor Chengming's words, he hurriedly bent down and whispered:

"What the emperor said, Lord Qi was just angry before."

"You have your thoughts, and you also have your own concerns, not to mention that Lord Qi is still towards the emperor in the end."

"The emperor also said that Lord Qi's temperament would rather not bend, although he wants the emperor to strictly try this case, but after all, he is still full of respect for the emperor."

"Your Majesty, don't you know, before the Su family knelt in front of the palace gate, when you summoned Lord Qi into the palace, Lord Qi told Miss Su that the emperor was the king of the Holy Ming, how could he slander you in his heart?"

Emperor Ming Xuan turned around: "He said so?" ”

Zhou Lian said in a low voice: "The slave doesn't dare to lie. ”

Emperor Ming Xuan paused: "What did he say?" ”

Zhou Lian hesitated for a moment, and when he saw Emperor Ming Xuan looking at him, he didn't dare to hide it, so he said:

"Lord Qi said that you are the King of Sainthood, and you will definitely not be deceived by others, nor will you protect traitors and villains."

"He also told Su Ruan to let her wait outside the palace gate for the summons, and not to do anything else, and told her that she was sincere, and that His Majesty would definitely seek justice for her."

Emperor Xuan of Ming listened to Zhou Lian's words and was silent for a long time.

Those in the warm pavilion just now made him suspicious, but at this time, his suspicions were gone.

Emperor Xuan of the Ming Dynasty looked at the flying snow outside and was silent for a long time before he spoke: "Zhou Lian, I ordered Nan Yuanshan to be released from prison, and let Shi He and Shaoxing enter the palace to see me." ”

Shi He is the secretary of the criminal department.

Shao Xingfan is Dali Siqing.

Zhou Lian listened to Emperor Ming Xuan's command, his expression tightened, and he vaguely guessed something, and hurriedly lowered his head and said, "The slave obeys the order." ”

……

After Qi Wenfu left the palace, when he was sitting in the carriage, he lifted his sleeves and revealed his hands.

His fingers were stained scarlet, and even his sleeves were stained with a lot.

He knew that it was Su Ruan's blood, and he knew why he was able to leave the palace so safely today, and even went back to the house in a carriage.

Qi Wenfu stretched out his hand to hold the blood-stained sleeve, his face full of astringency and emotion.

How on earth was that girl able to think about breaking the siege for him in such a situation, even when she was a little confused, so that he could get out in front of the angry Emperor Ming Xuan?

Qi Wenfu shook his hand weakly, as if grasping Su Ruan's hand.

What is it that holds her up to do all this?

When the carriage stopped outside the door of Qi's house, Qi Wenfu was carried out of the carriage, and the old man Qi and the old lady Qi were waiting in front of the door, and when they saw him limping into the house, the old lady had red eyes.

Old Madam Qi stepped forward and grabbed Qi Wenfu's hand, her eyes were red, while Old Man Qi faded away from her usual laughter and asked, "Are you okay?" ”

"It's fine."

Survived the difficulties and passed today.

Even if Emperor Xuan of the Ming Dynasty pursues it, he will not be angry with the Qi family and ask for his life.

Old Madam Qi slapped him directly, and choked up: "What's good, you are an unconscious thing, you can't let me save some heart?" You ran out to take risks like this, and made such a big incident, if you have a bad one, do you want me and your father to send a black-haired person?! ”

Qi Wenfu raised his lips and smiled: "Mother, isn't I good, don't curse me......"

Before the words fell, he was hit again.

Old Man Qi returned to his usual appearance, and stretched out his hand to hold Mrs. Qi: "Okay, okay, isn't the fourth child very good, besides, he is such a big person, and it is normal to do something." ”

"He's all back safely, don't worry about it."

After the old man Qi finished speaking, he instructed the people next to him: "Hurry up and ask a doctor to come back, take a look at the legs for the fourth master, by the way, stew some bird's nest soup for the old lady and me, this has been standing outside for so long, cold panic." ”

"Eat, eat, eat, know to eat!"

Old Madam Qi was still worried, but she forgot about it in an instant when the old man interrupted her.

She turned her head and glared at Old Man Qi and said angrily: "You treat you as a pig!" ”

After Qi Wenfu sent away the quarrelsome old lady and the old man, he was helped back to the room by Jinbao, and as soon as he sat down, he said directly to Jinbao: "Jinbao." ”

"Fourth Master."

"You go to the Xuanping Marquis Mansion and tell them that Miss Su is fine in the palace, so they don't have to worry."

After Qi Wenfu finished speaking, he paused before saying:

"Tell Old Madam Xie that if you can, find Princess Anyang to come forward and find an excuse to take Miss Su back to the mansion, and also, let Second Madam Xie not show her face outside during this time, and as for Marquis Xie, let him wait for the emperor to summon him."

Qi Wenfu took a pen and paper, wrote a letter and handed it to Jinbao, and said to him:

"Give this letter to Marquis Xie, and say that if the emperor summons him to the palace, let him follow the words in the letter."

"No matter who asks him, he must insist that he has no contact with Su Ruan during the time he went to Beiding, and then it was because he learned that the Bo family and the second prince were looking for the account book, and they had the intention of harming Su Ruan's mother and daughter, so he had to take people back to Beijing, and in order to protect their mother and daughter, he asked for a will to leave people in the Xie family."

After hearing Qi Wenfu's words, Jinbao nodded and said, "Yes, Fourth Master." ”

Qi Wenfu said: "Go ahead, be careful on the road." ”

……

Jinbao didn't dare to delay with the letter, and went out of the house directly.

When he arrived at Xie's house, he saw that everyone in the Xie family was there.

After Jin Bao handed over the letter to Xie Yuan, he relayed Qi Wenfu's words to the people of the Xie family.

After listening to his words, Old Madam Xie said, "Lord Qi said that Ruan Ruan is okay in the palace? ”

Jin Bao said respectfully: "Miss Su is fine for the time being, there is a doctor by her side to take care of her, there is no worry about her life, but the fourth master of my family said that the emperor's heart is unpredictable, let me tell Mrs. Xie, if it is possible, please ask Princess Anyang to come forward and take Miss Su back to the house as soon as possible." ”

Hearing this, Old Madam Xie hurriedly nodded: "Okay, I'll find a way." ”

After Jinbao finished speaking, he turned his head to look at Xie Yuan, and said in a low voice: "Master Xie, the fourth master asked me to tell Master Hou,"

"Later, the emperor will inevitably summon Marquis Xie, and please don't reply according to the letter when the time comes, otherwise Miss Su's side may be in danger."

"Also, although Mrs. Xie is Miss Su's biological mother, she is now in the Xie family tree, and she is personally married by the emperor, no matter what the reason, she is already a member of the Xie family, in the eyes of outsiders, Lord Hou must make people believe that you took them back to the capital in order to protect them."

"As for what happens to her and Marquis Xie in the future, it is a matter of coming from home behind closed doors, even if it is a long-term relationship, the emperor is not easy to say."
