Wei Qinghuan thought of the solemn look on her face when she came out of the cell after Fang You's interrogation just now, it stands to reason that she shouldn't have reacted like this after Lord Zeng pressed his handprint, or ...... She already knew that the connector arranged by Meng Chang was Ji Xiu.

Ji Xiu sent the four of them outside the inn, looked around, and said to Ji Hui with a loving smile, "Hui'er, you will follow Ah Yu and them these days, remember not to make trouble, and I will pick you up and go home when I finish the business at hand." ”

"Hmm!" Ji Hui also looked at him happily and nodded, it seems that Sister Ayu succeeded in persuading her father this time, otherwise she would not smile at her at this time with her father's serious character, so she said mischievously, "Then you have to come and pick me up quickly, I will miss you and my mother very much." ”

Ji Xiu stared at her eyes as pure as early spring dew and nodded, as if even he believed that he would definitely fulfill this promise to her.

"Ayu, wait, I have a few words to explain to you." Ji Xiu stopped Fang You, who was leaving. Fang You stayed, and the remaining three left first.

"What's wrong, Master?" Fang You asked.

"I think you should know everything," Ji Xiu said, "Nine times out of ten, what I'm going to do this time is more than lucky." I hope you can help me take good care of Ji Hui in the future, even if Master begs you, is it okay? ”

This was the first time Fang You had heard Ji Xiu say this kind of begging words, "Master, I don't need you to say that I will take good care of Ah Hui, but ...... I still hope that Master, you can think about it again......"

Ji Xiu shook his head, "I have to do this thing, one is my own reason; There is another one, now is a critical moment, Senior Brother Yu, he can't do without my help. ”

"But Ah Hui can't do without you!" Fang You was a little excited, "If she finally knows the truth, who will she go to for help?" ”

"That's why I let you stay, Ayu," Ji Xiu said with a solemn face, "Don't let Eri know about this until I take action." ”

"Master, I'll just ask you...... This is the first time Fang You dares to stare at Ji Xiu's eyes so blatantly, "Can I see you again after this incident?" ”

Ji Xiu was stunned for a moment, as if he hadn't heard Fang You's words, and said to himself, "Take care of Hui'er, and take care of yourselves." After speaking, he patted Fang You's shoulder and left without looking back.

Fang You stared at Ji Xiu's distant back, wondering if this would be the last time he would see his master again, and unconsciously shed helpless and reluctant tears.

After Wei Qinghuan and his subordinates hid in the shadows for a short time, they saw Ji Xiu break in with a few people, and after they knocked out the guards and officials, they looked around sneakily.

Ji Xiu glanced around the cell and saw Master Zeng and Meng Yang who were gagged and tied up tightly in the cell. He waved his hand at the others around him, and they sprang into action.

With their only body language, Master Zeng and Meng Yang signaled to them that the key to the prison door was on the official who had been knocked unconscious by them. When those subordinates went in to untie the two people in the prison, Ji Xiu felt that the atmosphere was not right, and just wanted to give an order, at this time, Wei Qinghuan rushed out quickly with someone. I saw that two people hurriedly put the key to the cell, except for Ji Xiu and the other two, the other two were locked in the cell with Master Zeng and Meng Yang.

"Ji Sicheng, long time no see." Wei Qinghuan came out of the crowd, stood in front of Ji Xiu and said with a smile, that smile was like a longing smile when he saw an old friend he hadn't seen for a long time.

Ji Xiu and the people outside the prison were surrounded by Wei Qinghuan's subordinates, and he was not in a hurry, looking at Wei Qinghuan, his words were full of indifference, "Lord Wei, long time no see." ”

"Ji Sicheng is here to save people?"

"The facts are right in front of you, so why should Lord Wei ask more?"

"I really can't imagine that Ji Sicheng has anything to do with this matter." Wei Qinghuan had a puzzled expression, "Lord Ji, can you explain it to me in detail later?" ”

"The speed at which Lord Yiwei investigates the case, I don't think I need to say, you should have known what was going on, right?" Although Ji Xiu's tone sounded relaxed, his eyes were vigilant.

Wei Qinghuan sat slowly on the chair next to him before replying, "Thanks to Ji Sicheng's praise, I just want to find a reason to keep you for a cup of tea and catch up." ”

"If you want to drink tea, it's good for Master Wei to say it directly, why bother to mess around......" Ji Xiu said as he gestured to the two people around him, and the two took advantage of the unpreparedness of Wei Qinghuan's men around him, rushed to Wei Qinghuan, and pointed their swords at his neck.

Ji Xiu opened his mouth and said, "Lord Wei, I'm sorry...... and then looked at the people in the prison, "Let them go." ”

Wei Qinghuan didn't have any resistance or superfluous words, so he signaled his subordinates to release a few people in the prison. Ji Xiu and the others held Wei Qinghuan hostage, and did not let go of him until he was safe, and then left quickly.

"Follow." Wei Qinghuan looked coldly at the figures of several people fleeing, and said to the people behind him.

"Yes." As he spoke, the man quickly and secretly followed behind Ji Xiu and the others.

"Brother Ji, you know that Wei Qinghuan just now is deliberate, why do you still ......" Meng Yang ran and panted to Ji Xiudao.

"I know, but it would be worse if I didn't save you." Ji Xiu said, "Huaiyan, the two of you can't stay anymore, I'll arrange for someone to send you away separately later, go as far as possible, don't show up again, otherwise ......" He said and glanced at the two. The two of them knew what he meant, and their necks were cold, and then they nodded hurriedly.

After Ji Xiu arranged for the two to leave, he set off to the Yuqiu faction to discuss the next matter with Yu Zhengfeng.

Master Zeng and Meng Yang had just gotten into the carriage for half an hour, and after breaking up with Ji Xiu's people, a group of people blocked their way.

I saw Wei Qinghuan standing in front of everyone, holding his hands in front of his chest, waiting for them to get out of the car and tie his hands down.

After Fang You and the others found out the case, they took Ji Hui back to the capital. Originally, they wanted to get up early and sneak back while Wei Qinghuan didn't notice it, so as not to be embarrassed to meet, but when they packed up and went downstairs, they already saw Wei Qinghuan sitting downstairs.

Wei Qinghuan greeted them as if he was waiting for them, and warmly invited them to return to Beijing together, but Fang Yu ruthlessly refused.

"Sister Ayu, haven't you already reconciled?" Ji Hui chattered behind Fang You and asked, "I think Master Wei seems to want to go all the way with us, is it okay to refuse him like this?" ”

"Ah Hui ......" Zhao Rou shook her helplessly and looked at Ji Hui, and scratched her nose, "Why do you have so many questions to ask, look at how quiet Ah Yi is, you should also learn from him." ”

Ji Hui glanced at Xue Qi and stuck out his tongue at Zhao Rou, "It's so boring for Ah Qi to not talk, I still have to have someone to talk about it all day long to be fun." ”

Zhao Rou looked at Ji Hui with a smile, and there was nothing she could do with her.

Fang You also smiled on the side, "Ah Hui is like this, you let her learn the same as Ah You, but not her." ”

"Sister Ayu, you're finally smiling!" Ji Hui began to cry like a bird again, "I haven't seen you laugh much in the past few days......"

"It's all thanks to you, I'm happy."

"Hee ......" Hearing Fang You's words, Ji Hui smiled even happier.

After running around on the road for a long time, they finally returned to the capital. After arranging Ji Hui, Fang You, Xue Qi and Zhao Rou planned to return to the Cheng Ling Division to report to Zhang Wei, and along the way, they had already figured out how to tell the matter so that they would not expose Ji Xiu's plan and not make Zhang Wei suspicious.

Who knew that after they arrived at the Chengling Division, they learned that Zhang Wei was called by Zhang Qingyuan to go to the Jingshi Courtyard to discuss important matters, and heard that Wei Qinghuan came back one step ahead of them, and told the emperor everything that was found out in Huaiyan Province. And Meng Chang learned that the news that he was found out was faster than the emperor, so he fled with his important family members and family money before the emperor ordered him to be arrested.

"This Meng Chang can't be betraying Master, right?" Xue Qi asked worriedly.

"Probably not, he has been secretly planning this matter for so long, and he definitely won't give up so easily." Zhao Rou said.

"And where can he flee?" Xue Qi scratched his head, then muttered quietly.

"Yuqiu faction." Fang You said, "Now Wei Qinghuan and the emperor think that he fled because he was selling illicit salt and was afraid of being convicted, so he must have gone back to the Yuqiu faction to prepare for that incident." ”

"So what do we do now?" Xue Qi asked worriedly, "And ...... Master?"

Fang You shook his head, "Don't talk about this matter to anyone for the time being, except for each of us who knows what they are doing selling illicit salt." Then he pondered for a moment and said, "I'll go and find my brother." ”

When Xue Qi heard that he was going to follow, Fang You stopped, "You stay and take good care of Ah Hui, and try not to let her know about it." ”

Thinking of Ji Hui, Xue Qi nodded obediently.

Fang You waited for a long time at the gate of the Pure World Courtyard before he saw Xiao Qibai's figure hurriedly returning, "Senior brother! She waved at him and shouted.

Xiao Qibai saw that it was Fang You, abandoned the person behind him, and hurriedly rushed over, "Ah You, when did you come back?" ”

"Just came back." Fang Youdao, she looked at the senior brother she hadn't seen for a few days in front of her, obviously she was about the same age as her, and he had already worked hard and had a few strands of gray hair.

"I've heard about that." Xiao Qibai continued, "Then Meng Chang is running quite fast. ”

"Master Wei only mentioned Meng Chang?" Fang You was a little surprised.

Xiao Qibai nodded inexplicably, "Except for the Salt Patrol Yushi and Meng Yang who brought back, it is said that Meng Chang is behind the scenes." ”

Fang You always thought that Wei Qinghuan would tell the emperor everything, but he didn't expect that he would skip the master's affairs and only talk about these three people, didn't he know that the master was the connector? Fang You shook his head, it was impossible, although she and Zhao Rou did not write about the master on the confession that Master Zeng said, but with Yi Wei's cautious and witty character, it was difficult to guarantee that he would not interrogate Master Zeng again, and it was also possible for Meng Yang to reveal this matter. Then why did Wei Qinghuan hide from the emperor that his master was also involved in this matter?

"Ayu?" Xiao Qibai said, "What's wrong?" What are you thinking? ”

Fang You came back to his senses, "Senior brother, I also met someone in Huaiyan. ”

Xiao Qibai frowned, vaguely having a bad premonition, "Who is it?" ”

"Master."

"Master? What does this case have to do with it? ”

"Yes."
