Chapter 13 The Prime Minister's Turmoil

In the Lingcui Pavilion, the three of them waited for a long time, until it was dark, and they still didn't see Chu Tiankuo coming.

Yanxiang was so anxious that he scolded: "Senior brother must be fascinated by beauty." I don't even care anymore. ”

Shui Mai frowned, and said with a worried expression: "Your senior brother has always done things in a measured manner, besides, he is not the merry boy you call him. He has made so many confidants, I haven't seen who he is attracted to. Could he be in trouble? ”

Her words reminded of the smoke incense. Yanxiang thought about it, patted his head, and exclaimed, "Senior brother must have followed Sister Xia He." ”

Looking at the puzzled eyes of the two, she continued: "Sister Shuimai, I forgot to tell you a strange thing. Today, Sister Xia He specially asked the senior brother to go to the teahouse. In the teahouse, someone plotted against Sister Xia. The gangster was subdued by the elder brother. Sister Xia's words and deeds are so strange. She also deliberately told the senior brother that she was wearing a gold silk soft armor. ”

Chi Le was secretly shocked: "It's not good." I'll go to the Prime Minister's Mansion to have a look. ”

The more Shui Mai looked at it, the tighter his brows became, and the expression of worry overflowed, "Senior brother, I'll go with you." ”

"Brother Chi Le, I'm going too." Yanxiang panicked, pulled Chi Le's sleeve, and begged him.

"You just stay at home, maybe your senior brother will come back later. Don't worry. Shui Pulse comforted her.

"Sister Shuimai, let me go too." Smoke prayed.

Chi Le le's face was close to the cigarette, glared at her and said, "Your kung fu is so bad, what are you going to do?" Stay home and wait for our news. ”

The cigarette was silent for a while. I watched the two of them enter the room to dress up, and then watched them leave in black.

The two brothers and sisters dressed up as masked men in black and sneaked into the Prime Minister's Mansion. The Prime Minister's Mansion is heavily guarded, fortunately, they have been here once before, Xia He has taken them around, and they have a certain understanding of the terrain of the Prime Minister's Mansion. I quickly found Xiangye's study.

It just happened to be this scene.

In Xiangye's study, Xiangye was sitting on a sandalwood chair, holding a cup of tea, blowing on the tea, and slowly said, "Get up and talk." ”

In front of Xiangye, a masked man, Xia Hao, Xiangye's henchman, knelt on one knee. He stood up slowly and replied uneasily: "Chu Tiankuo is imprisoned in the Yamen prison. Tomorrow, the prefect will hold a trial. The prefect is honest and loves the people, and handles the case like a god, if it is investigated, it will inevitably prove that Chu Tiankuo is wronged. ”

Xiangye frowned, and said with a sneer: "Of course I will let him die without proof." The maid can't stay. There is also the bribery of the yamen officials. I want Chu Tiankuo to survive tonight. So saying, he walked up to the man and bowed his head and whispered to the man.

The man nodded. Xiang Ye showed a cold smile, which made Shui Mai Chi Le look creepy. They couldn't hear what Xiang Ye's plan was, but they clearly heard that Chu Tiankuo was now in the yamen prison.

They left the Prime Minister's Mansion and came to the Yamen. When the two sneaked into the inner courtyard of the yamen, they were caught by Dongfang Hong, who was patrolling. Dongfang Hong tore off the masks of the two of them, shook slightly, and asked with a smile: "Brother Chi Le, in the middle of the night, you broke into the yamen, what is the so-called matter?" ”

"He is worthy of being a master of Fengcheng, and his martial arts are really good." Chi Le smiled awkwardly.

Shui Wei was shocked and embarrassed: "Chu Tiankuo is locked up here? ”

Dongfang Hong stared at the water vein, although it was night, the water vein was dressed in black, but it was difficult to hide the beauty of his face. He said slowly, "That's right. He is a suspect in the murder of the prime minister's daughter and stealing treasures. ”

"He was wronged. Someone wanted his life and deliberately framed him. The water vein defended Chu Tiankuo.

"What do you mean by that?" Dongfang Hong was stunned and asked with a smile.

"This." Shui Mai thought in his heart, if it was said that it was Xiang Ye who killed his daughter and falsely accused Chu Tiankuo, even she didn't believe it, and no one could believe it. Besides, the two of them secretly went to the Prime Minister's Mansion. If he said it, he would visit the Prime Minister's Mansion at night, and maybe he would be arrested.

Seeing that the water vein was speechless, Dongfanghong connected: "Don't talk nonsense without evidence." Alright, you guys go back first. Chu Tiankuo was not wronged. The truth will be revealed at the beginning of the trial tomorrow. Dongfanghong said that he generously did not pursue them for trespassing into the yamen and let them leave on their own.

After they left, they overheard someone from below to report: "A guard of Chu Tiankuo has died." ”

When Dongfang Hong heard this, he rushed to the cell in a hurry. I saw that the dead official had a dark face, blood from the corners of his mouth, and he fell to the ground, clearly poisoned and died. And the meal that this person had just eaten a few bites was intended for Chu Tiankuo to eat. Dongfang Hong respects Chu Tiankuo as a chivalrous man, and prepares good food and wine for him, but who knows that the official himself actually ate a few bites first.

Dongfanghong quickly sent the autopsy results, and the results of the autopsy showed that the person was indeed poisoned and died, confirming that the food was poisonous.

"Dongfang Gongzi, this matter is obvious, someone wants to kill me. Can you let me go back first, and I can investigate it myself? Chu Tian said calmly. If it hadn't been for the greedy servant just now, he might have died now. But he didn't seem to be panicking, he was still calm.

Dongfanghong reported this to the prefect overnight.

After listening to Dongfanghong's narration, the prefect paced back and forth, thinking for a long time: "This matter is quite strange. Chu Tiankuo can't put it for the time being. Since someone wanted his life, it was safe for him to stay here. ”

The next day, Xiangye came to the prefect's yamen early. He was grief-stricken, the pain of losing his daughter was painful to the bone marrow, and he wanted to take Chu Tiankuo away for personal interrogation. Xiangye was both soft and hard, the prefect couldn't resist it, Dongfanghong wanted to accompany him, and Xiangye drank him back.

In this way, before Chu Tiankuo could see the prefect, he was forcibly taken away by Xiangye.

When he arrived at the Prime Minister's Mansion, Xiang Ye instructed his subordinates to bring ropes and prepare to tie Chu Tiankuo.

"Xiangye, what does this mean?" Chu Tiankuo frowned and said unhappily.

"You killed my daughter and stole the treasure, of course I won't let you go." Xiangye's eyes were like ice balls, shooting out a cold light.

Chu Tiankuo sneered: "With my skills, Dongfang Hong may not be able to hold me." I willingly came to the Prime Minister's Mansion with the Prime Minister, in order to clear the suspicion. Xiang Ye's indiscriminate remarks will bind me, and I will be difficult to obey. ”

Xiangye's face was full of murderous anger, and he roared angrily: "You still obey." This is the Prime Minister's Mansion, and if you resist, I will kill you immediately. ”

"Xiangye is not afraid of Wang Fa?" Chu Tiankuo kindly reminded.

Xiangye smiled cunningly and said, "I said that you absconded for fear of crime and were punished on the spot." Xiang Ye's eyes flashed with a fierce light, and a vicious smile appeared on his face, and he walked out of the room. Nodding to the corner of the yard.

In an instant, many masked people emerged from all over the corner, armed with sharp swords, and broke into the room one after another, stabbing at Chu Tiankuo viciously. Chu Tiankuo dodged left and right, and couldn't bear to hurt their lives. There were more than a dozen masked people, surrounding Chu Tiankuo, and they were not soft on him because of Chu Tiankuo's mercy, and their moves were vicious and vicious, causing Chu Tiankuo to die.

During the fight, the masked man released a hidden weapon several times, but Chu Tiankuo keenly dodged it. Although these masked people are also first-class masters, they are no match for Chu Tiankuo, who is strong in martial arts.

Chu Tiankuo and the masked man fought from inside the house to outside.

When he arrived at the courtyard, Chu Tiankuo performed light skills and jumped out of the courtyard wall of the Prime Minister's Mansion, who knew that there was a group of masked people guarding there outside the Prime Minister's Mansion. The masked men in the courtyard also arrived. Chu Tiankuo dealt with dozens of masked people by himself. The other party was determined to die, and pestered Chu Tiankuo to death.

Chu Tiankuo snickered in his heart. Fun, isn't it? Then I'll play with you for a while.
