Li Chourong replied: "Your master plans to move to live in the Happy Palace, and I am in a hurry to dispense medicine to the water vein." Aya had wanted to sit in on the hearing, but later decided to stay and help me with the medicine. ”

That's why they didn't go to the trial? Yanxiang pursed his lips and blurted out: "Why rush to dispense medicine?" Why don't you all care about the outcome of the case? ”

In fact, they also cared about the outcome of the case, but they thought that Chu Tiankuo and Chi Le would definitely be fine. Relatively speaking, Shuimai's body is still a little weak, and it needs to be recuperated with medicine.

There are many inconveniences in being a guest in this Dali Temple, and many medicinal materials are not complete, so Li Chourong thought about moving to the Happy Palace as soon as possible. Just to be able to think of a way to cure the root of the disease that fell from the water vein.

If she went to the Happy Palace, she planned to move the things in Qingliu Mountain and the herbs planted, including the entire Baicao Garden, to the Palace. If you can, you can move there along with the things of Wunan Villa.

These, Li Chourong couldn't tell the cigarette for a while.

Chu Aofei smiled: "I'm not worried about your senior brother's safety, I'm afraid that you will get into trouble." ”

The incense poured cold water on him: "Master, don't be too careless. ”

Lan Ayayu interjected: "Yanxiang, how is this case judged?" ”

Smoke Incense sped up his speech and told them what happened in the court, including the bloody book.

Hearing this, Lan Ayayu's eyes dimmed, she thought that today's trial would be a formality, and in the end, Chu Tiankuo and Chi Le would be acquitted. She waited here for Chi Le to come after retiring, but she never thought that there would be such twists and turns.

After Chu Aofei listened, he was quite calm.

Seeing Master's expression, Yanxiang was slightly surprised, and asked puzzledly, "Master, why aren't you worried about the safety of Senior Brother at all?" ”

Chu Aofei picked up a cup of tea on the table, took a sip, and smiled: "Is it useful for Master to worry?" The emperor can't protect him, so how can the master protect him? ”

That seemed right, Smoke nodded, then shook her head again. She couldn't understand why the emperor didn't directly pardon the senior brother?

In the perception of cigarettes, the emperor is the supreme ruler of the Great Western Kingdom and the most authoritative figure in the world. As long as he debuts the holy decree, he pardons Senior Brother and Big Brother Chi Le, and expressly forbids this matter not to be discussed again. In this way, wouldn't it be effortless to save Senior Brother and Big Brother Chi Le?

Although it will be true, this law is not very just, and the people of the world only dare to be angry but dare not speak, but it is undeniable that this is a good way.

So, with a bit of girlish innocence, Yanxiang chased and asked: "Master, why didn't the emperor directly issue a holy decree to forgive the sins of the senior brothers?" ”

Emperor Ming Ming issued an edict before, asking Feng Nanyang to take it to Dali Temple and pardon the two of them out of the prison. Just use this method, and concoct it like this, wouldn't it be good?

This is a simple truth, Lan Ayayu understands. She answered the question of cigarettes instead of Chu Aofei: "If the name is not right, the word is not good." If the case is not handled in accordance with the law and there is a deliberate bias, it will arouse public indignation. The king is like a boat, the people are like water, water can carry a boat, and it can also overturn a boat. Moreover, even if they were reluctantly pardoned, their reputation would not be good for them in the future. ”

Yanxiang understood in an instant, she originally thought that she could use the supreme power of the emperor to cheat, but found that her idea was just to cover her ears and steal the bell. She understood what Lan Aya Yu said, it is not advisable to cheat for personal gain, and the serious method still has to clear the suspicion of the senior brothers.

After staying in the room for a while, Yanxiang looked at Lan Ayayu and Li Chourong as they were dispensing medicine, and felt so boring.

She didn't understand medicinal herbs, and she wasn't interested, so she hurriedly found an excuse to leave: "Master, you guys are busy." I went to the back hall to see how they were talking. ”

The real reason is that she cares about the case and can't be idle for a moment.

Hearing this, Lan Aya Yu put down the Sanqi in her hand and muttered in a low voice, "I'll go with you to take a look." ”

As soon as the words fell, Lan Aya Yu glanced at Li Chourong, and her eyes revealed the meaning of inquiry. She knew that Shui Mai's condition was repeated, and if she didn't try to heal it quickly, she was afraid that it would be more serious if it dragged on for a long time. She is concerned about the safety of the water veins and the progress of this case.

"Go ahead. These medicines are enough, and I can prepare the rest alone. Li Chou Rong didn't have time to think about it, so he approved her to leave.

Yanxiang looked at the subtle movements between Li Chourong and Lan Ayayu, as well as the strange conversation, and suddenly felt a little inexplicable. She couldn't help asking, "Isn't Sister Shuimai's injury almost healed?" Why are you so nervous that you have to keep dispensing medicines? ”

The more she thought about it, the more wrong it became, and they took the matter of dispensing medicine more seriously than observing the trial. In other words, the health of the water veins is more important than the safety of Senior Brother and Big Brother Chi Le.

Why is that? It's puzzling to her. Unless...... Yanxiang's heart sank, and Sister Shuimai's physical condition was very bad?

Smoke Incense's intuition is extremely sharp, and the water veins have not been as good as before since they rolled over the nail board. No, to be exact, the injuries on the body are gradually getting better, but the body is getting weaker and weaker. This made Lan Ayayu and Li Chourong anxious.

However, they didn't want Yanxiang to know this, for fear that she would leak her mouth in front of Shui Mai. Keeping patients in a good mood is more conducive to physical recovery.

Afraid that the smoke would continue to ask endlessly, Lan Ayayu hurriedly took her away, took her hand, and walked to the back hall.

As soon as the two of them reached the door of the back hall, they heard Dongfanghong's voice coming from inside the house.

"Master Duan, Daddy Hou mentioned his two daughters in front of us. Could this be the reason why he would rather bite his tongue and kill himself than testify in court? ”

"Two daughters?" Lan Ayayu and Yanxiang both looked at each other and were stunned, muttering in unison.

Smoke slammed into her in a hurry, and the room full of people looked at her for a moment.

She ran to Dongfang Hong and asked in a loud voice, "Brother Dongfang, what were you talking about just now?" ”

Duan Zisheng is very kind to Yanxiang, and indulges her like others, if it weren't for the fact that he couldn't show favoritism in the court, he wouldn't have opened his mouth and ordered her to be beaten. Despite her recklessness, he did not reprimand.

Yanxiang saluted Duan Zisheng and reiterated the question: "Brother Dongfang, what did you just say?" ”

Dongfang Hong replied to the words of Yanxiang: "Lord Duan is asking Father Hou what abnormal behavior he had before his death. ”

To be precise, it is investigating the reason why Daddy Hou bit his tongue and committed suicide.

Smoke shrugged his shoulders and stepped up and said, "It's not this, I'm asking you what you said earlier." ”

The previous words? Dongfang Hong was a little confused by the second monk. He had a clear idea, and he forgot where he said when he let the cigarette incense mix. He just said a lot of details, which one is it, and how can he remember it?

He smirked, "What did I just say?" ”

The smoke was slightly surprised, what Dongfang Hong just said, and I forgot it in a blink of an eye? She smiled, he couldn't have been so nervous that his mind was confused when he saw her? She stuck out her tongue and thought she wasn't that attractive.

Lan Aya Yu kindly reminded Dongfang Hong: "We walked to the door just now, and we heard what you said about the two daughters?" ”

Dongfang Hongmao suddenly opened his mouth and said firmly: "Father Hou mentioned in front of us that he loves two daughters at the same time. ”

Lan Aya Yu and Yanxiang, I don't know who we in the Dongfang Red Words refer to. The two of them said in unison: "Is there such a thing? ”

They searched for dry intestines, but they couldn't remember this detail.

Especially Lan Ayayu, she was desperately thinking about it in her mind, and she couldn't remember what Father Hou said. She thinks she doesn't have a bad memory.

If I remember correctly, when she and Dongfanghong went to visit Hongri Town, where Daddy Hou was located, they learned that Daddy Hou only had Hou Ping'er's only daughter, and the father and daughter had always depended on each other.

Why are there two daughters at this time?

The incense of smoke was also in the clouds, and he said in a daze: "Is there one?" How come I haven't heard of it? ”

Dongfanghong said in an extremely certain tone: "That's because you didn't notice." In the lobby of the prefect's yamen, Father Hou did say this. ”

Yanxiang is the same as he is, and he is very straightforward: "Could it be that Daddy Hou still has his daughter in the hands of Xiangye?" ”

"This is impossible" Lan Ayayu denied: "I went to Hongri Town with Lord Dongfang to visit some time ago, and Daddy Hou's neighbors did say that Daddy Hou only has one daughter, Hou Ping'er. ”

"Brother Dongfang, could it be that you are mistaken? I've never heard of this. "Yanxiang's point of view is the same as Lan Ayayu's, and the inside story that Dongfanghong told her before is consistent with what Lan Ayayu said. She didn't believe in this, if Daddy Hou had said this, she should have an impression.

Dongfang Hong emphasized again: "It's really him who said it himself, if you don't believe it, you can ask Miss Lu." She also heard and could testify. ”

The room was full of people, all listening to the three of them talking, without interrupting.

At this time, they wanted Lu Caier to come forward to confirm Dongfang Hong's words, but found that Lu Caier did not know where to go.

Yan Xiang glanced at it and found that except for Lu Cai'er, King Yong'an was not present. After inquiry, she learned that King Yong'an and Xia Wenxuan went back to the palace together, and Lu Caier went back to Zuifang Building.

I wiped it, and then I remembered the token that the emperor gave her, but I didn't get it back in Lu Caier's hand. She patted her head secretly, when will she be able to get rid of this problem?

Everyone saw that Dongfang Hong was so sure and believed what he said. It's just that Daddy Hou obviously only has one daughter, Hou Ping'er, why did he say that he lost two beloved daughters? It's incredible.

Lan Ayayu questioned again: "Lord Dongfang, if this is the case, why are Daddy Hou's neighbors so sure that he has always been dependent on Hou Ping'er and has no other relatives?" “

Shui Wei was listening, silent. At this moment, she coughed, her thin lips opened slightly, and she expressed her thoughts: "Could it be that Daddy Hou deliberately said this to mislead us?" ”

Duan Zisheng and Yun Bai both nodded. They think that if the water vein, there is also some possibility. It's just that what is Daddy Hou's motive for doing this?

Li Shuang and Shen Mei did not agree with the statement of the water vein. The two of them didn't know much about this, and they couldn't express their opinions, so they had to act as listeners.

Shui Mai continued: "He would rather bite his tongue and kill himself than come out to testify. There must be a last resort for him. Most likely, someone he wanted to protect. ”

When she said these words, she had a serious expression on her face, as if she had said them after careful consideration.

Such a popular truth, other people also understand, but they don't understand who Daddy Hou wants to protect is.

Yanxiang raised his eyebrows disapprovingly, and exclaimed, "How is it possible? Could it be that Daddy Hou has anything to do with Xiangye? What is he doing protecting Xiangye? ”

This caused everyone to laugh for a while.

Shen Mei didn't react to the ridicule in Yanxiang's words, and immediately spit on her: "Who said that the person that Daddy Hou wants to protect is Xiangye?" Xiangye killed his daughter, he hated Xiangye too late, how could he protect Xiangye? ”

Smoke pursed her lips, a little ridiculous. According to Sister Shuimai's analysis, she came to the conclusion that Daddy Hou wanted to protect Xiangye?

This case is obviously a ghost made by Xiangye, and he is the initiator. These blood books are recorded very clearly, and the plan comes from Xiangye. Daddy Hou is reluctant to testify, doesn't he just want to protect Xiangye?

Of course, Yanxiang's words meant ridicule, not that she really thought that the person that Daddy Hou wanted to protect was Xiangye.

Wait, something seems wrong? Yan Xiang suddenly thought of a question: "No, is Xia He the daughter of Daddy Hou?" ”

As soon as these words came out, the room full of people was shocked.

Smoke Xiang felt that this explanation was in place. It is mentioned in the blood book that Xia He is a fake daughter of the prime minister, and Father Hou is reluctant to testify in court, which is very likely to be related to Xia He. If Daddy Hou testifies in court, then this blood book can confirm the authenticity. Of course, everyone believed that the blood book was real, but it was not confirmed.

And if it is confirmed that the blood book is true, then the content recorded in the blood book can be used as evidence in court. In this way, according to the content of the blood book, Xia He pretended to be the daughter of the Prime Minister's Mansion, acted misbehaps, and killed people like hemp, and she would be ruined.

And as a side result, Xiang Ye will also follow the blood mold, and the fact that he killed Chu Tiankuo will be revealed, and his true form will be revealed. Maybe he even committed the crime of defrauding the king.

The more Yan Xiang thought about it, the more he felt that his judgment was correct and logical.

However, Shui Mai was the first to stand up against it: "It's not realistic. We have all seen Xia He, and we are no strangers to it. She is round and jade, and there is no resemblance to the skinny Hou Daddy. Besides, will Daddy Hou be wronged for the sake of Xia He, regardless of Hou Ping'er? ”

As he spoke, Shui Wei coughed intermittently. Probably because of the long trial time, she stayed in the court for a long time, and she was concerned about the outcome of the case, and her mood fluctuated greatly. So much so that her voice now sounded a little weak, and her face looked a little pale.

Seeing this, Lan Aya Yu hurriedly stepped forward and approached Shui Mai, and whispered in her ear to persuade her: "Shui Mai, you go back to the room to rest first, it's time to drink medicine." ”

Shui Pulse nodded, she was indeed a little tired. She walked with a not-so-brisk step and walked alone to the guest room. Although she really wanted to stay in this back hall to discuss with everyone, she felt physically exhausted and did not want to expose her weak side in front of outsiders.

Yanxiang looked at the back of the water veins walking weakly and couldn't help the wind, and her heart was sour. She sighed lowly, isn't Sister Shuimai's injury healed?

She recalled the words of the water vein again, and pondered it, as if what the water vein said made sense.

But what's going on? There seem to be a lot of mysteries about Daddy Hou, but unfortunately he is dead.

Yanxiang couldn't help but complain, if you want to know the reason for this, why don't you have to ask Daddy Hou himself?
