When Mu Churan came out of the prison of the Criminal Department, Gongsun Ou had already heard that the emperor was coming, so he hurriedly came over to greet him, but he didn't want to bump into Mu Churan and was already leaving. Gongsun Ou respectfully said to Mu Churan: "Your Majesty, you are here late at night, but you are not worried about the assassination of Lord Shangshu of the Ministry of Officials?" WeChen will ......"

Before he finished speaking, he was interrupted by Mu Churan waving his hand: "Have you received the secret execution of the will?" ”

"Back to Your Majesty, Wechen has received it, and Wechen will definitely do his best to handle this matter, and he will definitely not leak the slightest rumor. I will not disappoint Your Majesty! Gongsun Ou looked solemn and said deeply.

"No, what I want is to leak the news, and you must let out the news that this assassin is about to be secretly executed, and it is best for everyone to know." Mu Churan said coldly, the expression on his face made Gongsun Ou unable to see through. Although he didn't know what the emperor's intentions were, he immediately responded: "Weichen obeys the order." ”

After sending Mu Churan away, Gongsun Ou began to have a headache, since it was to be carried out secretly, and everyone wanted to know about it. First of all, of course, he can't make a big deal about it, otherwise those who don't know will think that this criminal department is not doing well, and the speed of dissemination can't be too fast, but it can't be slow. If the things that the emperor explained can't be done well, I'm afraid that he will be blamed, and the matter also involves the secretary of the ministry, in short, he can't be careless at all.

The guards outside suddenly came in and brought a packet of medicine, "Lord Qiyu, Lord Xiao sent someone to deliver this packet of medicine, saying that it was for the assassin, so that the assassin's wound would not worsen and he would lose his life and delay the interrogation." "Gongsun Ou asked people to take it over and check it, it is indeed a wound medicine, although it is not high-grade, but it is not bad.

Gongsun Ou twisted his mustache and tilted his head, "This Xiao He really cares about this case, and he is in a hurry to grab credit." What about the people he sent to deliver the medicine? Are you gone? The guard replied: "It looks like I'm still waiting at the door, so I'll send it away." Gongsun Ou stopped him, "Wait! ”

He rolled his eyes, Xiao He often walked around the palace, and he was still a celebrity in front of the emperor, and his connections were naturally good, if the news came out of him, it didn't seem deliberate, and it could be regarded as following the emperor's arrangement. When he thought about it, he really admired how fast his brain turned, beckoned, and said to the guard, "Come here!" ”

The guard took a few steps forward, and Gongsun Ou leaned into his ear and whispered a few words to teach him, asking him to pass the word to Xiao He's subordinates like this, and after teaching, he handed the medicine box back, "Remember, just say that, let him take this medicine back too." ”

After Han Chun returned to Xiao Mansion, he immediately reported to Xiao He, "Childe, the medicine was not sent in." The people in the criminal department said that the medicine was useless, and that the emperor had gone to try the assassin himself tonight, and that he had been convicted and that he would be secretly executed in two days. ”

Xiao He was shocked in his heart, but tried to make a calm expression, "Okay, I know." I've worked hard for you, so let's go rest first. ”

I didn't expect it to be so soon, Xiao He's mind was full of pictures of him about to be executed, and it was already a big mess. Although killing pays for his life, since he is a killer, he should know that he will receive this retribution one day, and it is even more difficult to save him now.

Why did Mu Churan suddenly decide to directly execute him secretly? Could it be that he said something to Mu Churan?

Now I can only take risks and fight.

Xiao He immediately wrote a short note to Murong first, asking him to prepare to meet her outside the city on the second watch tonight. Last time, he could send Xue Liangan out of the city in the middle of the night, so this time he must have a way to help her transport Xiao Shi out in the middle of the night.

Then she took out the previous edict given to her by Mu Churan, it is not difficult to imitate Mu Churan's handwriting, and she doesn't have to imitate it completely. On weekdays, she has seen a lot of Mu Churan's words, and she has practiced a few times, but she can't check that she can have seven or eight images. It's just that this seal is a little troublesome, she held up this handwritten edict written by Mu Churan and looked at it under the lamp, simply picked up scissors, cut off the piece of the treasure seal, and then wet the edge and paste a thin layer of rice milk, and a forged edict was ready.

She knows all this, she can only be deceived for a while, as long as the criminal department reports it, she will be exposed immediately, and then her net worth and life will be fully compensated.

However, she couldn't care about anything else, she couldn't bear to watch him die.

Indeed, before he set off for this trip Wang Siyi, it was like explaining the aftermath, telling Hongzhu everything, he was ready to die, but he owed her an explanation.

She wouldn't let him die.

Xiao He called Han Dong and Han Xia, and briefly discussed with them, "There are some risks in going here, I want to go to the prison of the Criminal Department to save people, and I am not very sure that I can get out of the whole body, if you don't want to go, I won't force it." ”

Han Dong and Han Xia glanced at each other, and said to Xiao Heyan: "But with the dispatch of the son, there is no other word!" Han Dong added: "Childe, what kind of person am I waiting for, seeing it like this, I have to pick Childe!" My brothers are dedicated to following Childe, and they don't ask about the way forward, where Childe points and where we go! The sea of swords and fires did not frown, not to mention that it was just a prison of the Criminal Department. A disdainful smile appeared on the corner of Han Xia's mouth, and he agreed: "That's it!" In the future, Childe can't look down on people like this anymore! ”

Xiao He smiled instead, and arched his hand: "Yes, yes, I'm not right." ”

Han Chun, who was on the side, was anxious, "Hey! Childe, why don't you bring me with you, dislike my martial arts are a little worse than the two of them? ”

Xiao He waved his hand to reassure him, "How come?" Take my token and wait at the gate to receive us and leave. But the most important task, given to others, I will not be relieved. ”

Han Chun grinned when he heard this, "That dare is the son's trust in me the most!" I won't let Childe down! ”

Han Xia glanced at him and sneered, but said nothing.

Xiao Hecai instructed them to make a little preparation and set off as soon as the day came.

When he arrived at the prison of the Criminal Department, Xiao He took Han Dong and Han Xia, who were dressed in eunuch clothes, and showed a forged edict, falsely transmitting a holy decree saying that Mu Churan was going to take away the assassin and ask him again. When the jailer saw that it was Xiao He, he didn't doubt it much, and the edict only glanced at it, and didn't look carefully at all.

Everything was in Xiao He's plan, and he went down to the dungeon and walked to the iron cage where Xiao Shi was imprisoned. After the jailer had unlocked the lock, he went in and opened the locks on the four chains. Without the support of the iron chain, Xiao Shi fell to the ground with a thud, Xiao He tried his best to hide his emotions, and ordered coldly in front of the jailer: "Bother the two fathers-in-law to take someone to come with me!" ”

Han Dong and Han Xia stepped forward to put the little ten up.

Xiao He smiled indifferently at the jailer again, "There is this little brother." ”

How dare the jailer be, so he smiled at Xiao He and said, "Lord Xiao is serious. It's the villain's business. ”

After leaving the prison of the Criminal Department, Xiao He and his party walked out of the palace quickly. Waiting for the carriage, Han Dong and Han Xia drove, Xiao He helped Xiao Shi in the carriage and handed him a water bladder first. It seems that he hasn't drunk water in a while, and he is like holding a water bladder and drinking it. Xiao He couldn't help but reach out and caress his chest, "You slow down, drinking water like this hurts your body." ”

Hearing this, his speed of drinking water really slowed down.

After drinking a water bladder, Xiao He handed him another medicine cup, "This is chicken soup stewed with mountain ginseng, the meat has been stewed with bones, you drink it as medicine." Xiao Shi glanced at her, didn't ask much, took it, and ate it all little by little.

"When we get out of the city, we're going to die." Xiao He smiled faintly, as if he was talking about something inconsequential, and wiped the corners of Xiao Shi's lips with a handkerchief. Xiao Shi's eyebrows moved slightly, reached out to take her handkerchief, and did it herself.

He knew that she would come to save him, but he didn't expect it to be in such a reckless form as a prison robbery. But she broke off the relationship with Zijin City in this form, and he should be happy to be with him from now on. He was indeed very happy, and the qi and blood in his chest were not smooth for a while, so that he could not help coughing violently.

Xiao He hurriedly stroked his back, smoothed him down, and said softly: "After finding a place to settle down, I will find a doctor for you to take a good look." I'm afraid you're going to have to heal for a while. That is fine, lest you carry me behind my back and make trouble. Her tone was half teasing, half helpless.

In fact, she has long known that if she can't let go, it already says everything.

She had already decided in her heart that he had a bitter intention to kill Wang Siyi, so she easily forgave him.

From beginning to end, Xiao Shi didn't speak, Xiao He didn't think much about it, thinking that he was just tired, and was about to persuade him to take a break. Then he heard the sound of horses' hooves behind him, and there were quite a few of them, and they came in a hurry, from far to near. She poked her head out of the carriage and saw a group of black-clad black horse pursuers. With such fanfare in the middle of the night, this battle looked very much like Mu Churan's Wuyi guard.

Xiao He's heart sank, and he hurriedly instructed Han Dong, "Turn around to the alley and get rid of the people behind." ”

Han Dong drove the carriage into the alley, but the carriage was too big a target after all. She took Xiao Shi out of the car, leaving Han Xia on foot with her, while Han Dong continued to drive the carriage away from the pursuers.

Xiao He and Han Xia walked forward with Xiao Shi on the left and right, but they heard him say, "I'll take you to a place to take refuge temporarily." ”

Under his guidance all the way, Xiao He detoured out of the East Market and turned to the back alley of the shops in the West Market. They came to the back door of what looked like an iron shop, Xiao Shi glanced at the shop, and said, "This is it." ”

Han Xia stepped forward and knocked on the door, but no one answered, so he increased his strength, his hands and feet were extremely heavy, and the wooden door shook so much that it was about to break.

After a while, I heard someone inside shouting, "Who? The disturbing dreams of the big night, really! ”

Xiao Shi sighed and said to Han Xia, "Ask him how much Tieguanyin is a tael?" ”

Han Xia was slightly stunned, but he still did so, and the person inside replied: "I'm a blacksmith, you asked the wrong way!" ”

Xiao Shi continued: "There is no road to heaven and no door to the earth, ask for two taels of Tieguanyin to protect your heart." ”
