readx;? The insects outside the window were hot, the moonlight was gently hitting the lintel, and the two guards were standing vigilantly in front of a hidden door, but they didn't know that the people inside were dead......

"Hey, I said that the Lord Zhou had been in for too long, why hadn't there been any movement for so long, didn't you say that you would come out as soon as you took something?" said one of the guards, patting the other who was standing nearby. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

"Well, I think it's time for me to come out, or ...... Let's take a peek?" The other guard, hearing him say this, also felt that it had been almost an hour since the adults had been in this week, why had there been no movement for a long time, and after a little thought, he said.

The two reached a consensus in this way, so, they moved carefully to the door, and then gently pushed open a crack, the whole process was soft, for fear of being noticed by the people inside.

"I say, don't you smell a breath of smoke?" a man sniffed, always feeling a little pungent, so he said softly to the person next to him.

"Well, I guess who's burning something. The other person sniffed it too, and then replied nonchalantly, "Wait! Open the door!" As soon as he finished speaking, this person suddenly reacted, didn't the smell of smoke come from this door?

said that it was too late, and the two of them tried their best to open the door, and the door was opened, but this time it made both of them a little dumbfounded, and they stood there a little at a loss.

I saw that in front of me, countless papers were being devoured by the flames, and many of them had been turned into ashes, and that Lord Zhou was sitting on a chair, his eyes were open, and the blood at the corner of his mouth had flowed into a line, and the whole scene made people stunned.

At this time, one of the guards reacted first, this person is already like this, although he can't be saved, but he can't let it continue to burn, so he quickly slapped another person hard, seeing that the person was still a little confused and turned to face him, and gave him more heads.

"When is it, don't wake up yet! Hurry! Grab the papers first, and then carry the corpse out, and I'll hurry to find someone to put out the fire!" After the other man finished speaking, he rushed out and shouted, "It's water!

The man also came back to his senses, and quickly picked up the debris on the ground, and tried to put away the paper that had not yet been consumed by the flames, but as the paper with the flames continued to fly, a lot of wooden furniture over there was also affected, and the fire became bigger and bigger.

When the guard saw this situation, he didn't pick up the paper anymore, and quickly grabbed a handful, and then stepped forward to carry Zhou Fucheng, who was sitting there and was slowly becoming cold, and rushed out.

At this time, the entire county guard mansion was in chaos, the tranquility of the moonlit night was broken, and the domestic servants who came and went kept holding buckets to extinguish the fire first, but fortunately, the fire was originally to burn the paper, and because the secret room was not ventilated, the fire was quickly controlled......

When everyone finally rescued the fire, they gathered around the body of Zhou Fucheng, who had just been moved out by the servants, and Mrs. Zhou on the side looked at the corpse and cried, "This person who was fine an hour ago, how can this ...... How...... Wow......" Zhou Gongzi on the side, with tears on his face, hugged Mrs. Zhou, sobbing silently.

"How's it going?" one of the guards asked the one who had stayed behind to collect the paper.

"Well, there's not much that can be used, so I'll take them all back later. The other guard replied, handing him the wad of paper he was holding, and then crouched down to take a closer look at Zhou Fucheng's lifeless body.

"Huh, what is this?" he carefully took out a piece of paper from Zhou Fucheng's hand, the paper had been pinched beyond recognition, opened it carefully, and the handwriting on it was a little unclear, and he could only vaguely identify it, "Close, protect the family, be rich." A few words.

"What?" said another, "this thing should be the reason." "I looked at the note, and I already had a conjecture in my head.

The man carefully put the note away, "This has to go back and hand it over to the emperor." ”

"Well, let's see what else there is, I'll go and inform the servants and General Yang. A man stood up and hurried to call someone.

Royal Gardens, Study.

"What? Zhou Fucheng committed suicide by swallowing the porcelain piece?" Emperor Zhaohua was a little incredulous, and suddenly stood up and listened to Yang Ze's reply.

This person who was still swearing to him during the day was going to kill himself by saying that he would kill himself at this time?

"Back to the emperor, yes, after inspection, Zhou Fucheng did swallow porcelain and died, and this was found from him. Yang Ze responded respectfully, and then handed the piece of paper up, his heart was also turning over at the moment, this week Fucheng died because of the Yang family, so would Emperor Zhaohua suspect him.

And those two guards are also stupid, they actually let Zhou Fucheng stay alone in that secret room, if this is investigated, he will also be held responsible, it is really troublesome.

"Close, keep the family, be rich. Emperor Zhaohua looked at the note back and forth, and also read out the words on it, "Heh, I'm afraid this is from Yang Xiang, it's nothing more than that, as long as you shut up, you will ensure that your whole family is rich, hum, this old fox!"

When Yang Ze heard this, he buried his head lower, for fear that Emperor Zhaohua would have something to think of him, some time ago, he finally felt that the emperor had some appreciation for him, if Yang Xiang made such a fuss, wouldn't it be ......

"I know, you go down. Emperor Zhaohua sat down weakly now, waved his hand and drove Yang Ze out.

Yang Ze was a little relaxed, since the emperor didn't attack him on the spot, he still had some trust in him, so he was not afraid of being dragged into the water by the Yang family.

Emperor Zhaohua, who was sitting there at this time, asked Fang Liang, "Yingyi, you say, am I too incompetent?"

"Master......" As soon as Ying heard Emperor Zhaohua call him, he turned over from the beam of the house and came down, standing there respectfully, but for such a fragile master, he didn't know how to answer, perhaps, the best thing at this time is to listen.

"Obviously, we were the first to strike, but they still escaped...... Bang!" Emperor Zhaohua slammed his fist on the table in indignation.

"Master, don't be angry!" Eichi hurriedly stepped forward to stop him.

"In this game, it was a bad move that made him escape. Emperor Zhaohua weakly spit out the status quo that he had to face now.

"But haven't we recovered Jiangnan County?" Eichi comforted him.

"Well, yes, Jiangnan County, look at Cheng Jianzhang, since this Jiangnan has fallen under my control, I must not let the Yang family have a chance to take advantage of it!" Emperor Zhaohua clenched his fists, his heart full of anger.

"Master, when are we going back, do you want to go and see the Xu family's auction to distract yourself?" Ying Yi tried to change the topic, the matter has come to this, or don't add more pain.

"Well, inform me, let's start the return journey the day after tomorrow, take the waterway, go back early, there should be a lot of things to deal with in the capital. As for ......" Emperor Zhaohua paused, thinking of the Xu family and the brother who had torn his face, he felt some indescribable grief in his heart, "As for the auction, I won't go, let's go back to Beijing as soon as possible." ”

After speaking, he pushed open the door of the study and instructed Cui Fuwei, who was at the door, to prepare for bedtime.

"Master, what the hell, I'm afraid of seeing that person...... "Ying Yi whispered to himself, and walked out of the study, since it was the day after tomorrow, he was going to set off, so some of the things left over from Jiangnan County had to be arranged and solved as soon as possible.

On the second day, those county orders and officials large and small who had confessed their guilt were either exiled from their homes or imprisoned to be beheaded, in short, Emperor Zhaohua acted vigorously and dealt with many people in one go.

This time, it is enough for the people of Jiangnan County and even the world to talk about it for a while, after all, since ancient times, corrupt officials are indispensable, but there are not many who can really be eradicated by the imperial court personally.

Yang Xiangfu in the capital.

"Yes, the emperor has already set off for Beijing......" Yang Xiangye was listening to the report of the people below, pinching his beard in his hand, and he was a little emotional.

"Alas, what does it matter if he doesn't come back, anyway, we've suffered a big loss this time. On the side, Marquis Yang, who was late, sat there dissatisfiedly and muttered.

"What do you know, the emperor is back, let's naturally pretend that nothing happened, and he was still sick before leaving, then he came back, you naturally have to look sick, stay at home quickly, don't go around all day. "Yang Xiangye was angry when he saw this younger brother, if he hadn't started quickly, he wouldn't know what kind of situation Jiangnan would have.

"Don't go back soon!" Yang Xiangye finished speaking, and when he saw that he still didn't want to move, he became angry.

Yang Houye heard Yang Xiang's cheers, and reacted that he was scolded, so he reluctantly got up and prepared to leave the Prime Minister's Mansion.

Yang Xiangye, looking at his departing figure, pressed his head with a headache, "It's so old, it's still a worry-free person, it's really ......"

When I went here, because Emperor Zhaohua also had to pay a private visit, this journey was delayed, and when I went back, I didn't have those things to worry about, so I blindly rushed back, and the speed was a lot faster.

It didn't take long for Shen Yuan to see the largest banner of the Xuanchi Kingdom, which was obviously hanging high in and out of the capital, sounding violently in the wind, "It's back......"

The experience of this period of time in Jiangnan has made her whole person a lot easier, without those intrigues and deceit, her spirit is much better, but unfortunately, she Shen Yuan married into this royal city after all, which means that it is difficult for her to have the opportunity to get out of this imperial city again in her life.

She took a deep breath, "This, what should be faced, always has to be faced......" Lifting the curtain on the frame nostalgically, looking at the sky, this bright spring light is not with her after all.

The whole convoy is slowly moving in the direction of the capital, and at the Shili Pavilion, there are the courtiers who came to greet Emperor Zhaohua, Yang Xiang stands in the first place, and in the perennial days, the Dingbei Hou family, who is alive and well, is nowhere to be seen.

"Welcome my emperor back to Beijing, long live my emperor. ”

"Hmph, this is a sign of weakness. Emperor Zhaohua swept around and found that there were some people from the Yang family missing, so he didn't understand what the Yang family meant.

He slowly stepped off the frame, took the lead in helping Yang Xiang, who was kneeling in the first place, and then raised his hand and said, "Everyone, Aiqing, please get up, in the days when I am not there, everyone has worked hard." ”

"It's not as good as the emperor's trip to Jiangnan, it's hard work......" The two sides played official tones with each other like this, such a familiar feeling is all telling this Lu Nancheng that this is still back, and the game with the Yang family is still going on.

And that, with small bridges and flowing waters, Jiangnan with the beautiful scenery of West Lake is just a small episode after all, which should be separated, should be put down, and it is necessary to let go after all......
