15. Ask for advice

When the morning light appeared in the sky, several people in the Metropolitan Inspectorate who were guarding the bonfire eating meat and drinking wine were also interrupted.

The guard on duty walked in and asked, "Zhu Chuan, is the governor entering the palace today?" Yesterday, His Majesty asked someone to ask, and if you want to go today, you can tell the palace. ”

The Governor of the Metropolitan Inspectorate needs to go to the court, because Huo Lian has just returned from an inspection outside, and His Majesty is sympathetic to let him rest.

However, since His Majesty has sent someone to ask, it means that there is an order.

Although Huo Lian was unscrupulous in front of the courtiers, he was actually a very polite person, only for His Majesty.

Zhu Chuan jumped up: "Why did you come to this time!" ”

With that, he hurriedly ran away.

"I thought you were busy, bringing that stupid big guy from Jingzhao Mansion." The messenger also complained.

The night gradually became brighter, and the inner courtyard where Huo Lian was was silent and no one was visible.

Zhu Chuan stood in front of the door, looked at the closed door, raised his hand and knocked gently, and whispered: "Miss Wanwan." ”

As he spoke, there were footsteps and chains.

"Ogawa, what's wrong?" A soft female voice said.

Zhu Chuan hurriedly said: "Are you all overseed?" ”

The female voice said, "I'm awake, but I haven't gotten up yet." ”

"Miss Wanwan, can you help me ask, will you enter the palace today?" Zhu Chuan said.

The female voice inside said hello, and then the footsteps and the sound of chains went inward, and returned a moment later, and the door was pulled open.

There was no light in the room, and it was dim and dim, and the figure of a woman was blurred.

"Hachiko asked you to come in and talk." She whispered.

There has long been no Liang Bazi in the world, only Huo Lian.

No one dares to call that name anymore.

But there is one person who can.

Liang Siwan, the daughter of Liang Temple.

Liang Temple had a group of wives and concubines, but they had no children until they were in their forties, when a dancing girl gave birth to this daughter.

Liang Temple is regarded as a treasure.

Liang Temple died, the great crime of raiding the family and destroying the clan, only this daughter survived, because Huo Lian asked the first emperor, saying that what he wanted most was not the righteous son of Liang Temple, but the son-in-law of Liang Temple.

The first emperor didn't care about a woman and gave it to Huo Lian.

Therefore, now Liang Siwan is regarded as a treasure by Huo Lian.

She only called Huo Lian's eight sons, because Huo Lian was her father's killer, and she didn't share the sky with him.

But Liang Bazi is a brother-in-law she is familiar with, which makes her feel like she lived before.

Huo Lian was willing to let her indulge in the past.

What Huo Lian is willing to do, Zhu Chuan is naturally willing, listening to her call the name Bazi, Zhu Chuan did not feel the slightest displeasure, and smiled and got out of the way.

"Okay, I got it." He said.

Liang Siwan raised her foot and stepped on the threshold, this time not only could she hear the light sound of the chains, but she could also see the chains on her ankles under her skirt when she looked down.

Zhu Chuan is no stranger to this chain, and the death row prisoners and felons in the cell are all carried.

The iron chain tied her feet, so that Liang Siwan's steps had to be very small, but she was used to it, and she stepped steadily across the threshold, standing still in the morning light, and the person became clear.

Liang Siwan was about the same age as Huo Lian, with big eyes and smooth skin like jade, she raised her hand to cover her mouth, yawned, and her face was a little tired.

"Miss has worked hard." Zhu Chuan hurriedly said, "Go and rest." ”

Liang Siwan nodded, and Lianbu walked away.

Zhu Chuan thought of something again: "Miss, what do you want to play?" I came from Nanshi today and bought it for you. ”

When he was in Liang's house before, Zhu Chuan was Huo Lian's little servant, who ran errands for him, and also bought a lot of things for Miss Liang.

Liang Siwan glanced back at him, as if thinking, and then shook her head: "No, there are all at home." "Let's keep walking.

The originally silent and unmanned courtyard suddenly walked out of four or five maidservants, followed Liang Siwan quietly, and quickly went away.

Zhu Chuan retracted his gaze and jumped into the room in three steps and two steps.

"Governor, Governor." He shouted softly.

There was a hum from within.

Zhu Chuan happily passed, skillfully lit the lamp, poured warm water and walked to the bedside.

Huo Lian had already sat up, her thin shirt was open, her chest was half exposed, she reached out and took the water cup handed by Zhu Chuan, and Zhu Chuan knelt down to put on his shoes.

"Your Majesty asked someone to ask me yesterday?" Huo Lian asked.

Zhu Chuan responded: "But I didn't say anything." ”

Huo Lian drank all the water: "Don't say anything, it's just to see who is not pleasing to the eye, I'll go to the court today." ”

If you look at it, you will know which one is in the way of His Majesty's eyes.

And he got rid of it for the emperor.

Zhu Chuan responded, took Huo Lian's court clothes, and said: "Also, that Zhang Yuan in Jingzhao Mansion is still tracking down the ink disciple who killed Liu Xiucai, but he can't do it, and he was picked up by Liu Yan and came to the governor for your advice." ”

Huo Lian sighed, put down the teacup and stood up: "If you want to catch the ink disciple, it's really hard to start." ”

"In order to avoid incidents, Dali Temple and Jingzhao Mansion finally concluded that the tenant's wife bought the murderer, and did not specify the identity of the murderer." Zhu Chuan said, and snorted again, "Obviously, the governor told them that it was a Mo disciple, and only this Zhang Yuan was still investigating." ”

"I just pointed out the identity of the murderer, I didn't arrest the murderer, and there was no evidence to prove the identity of the murderer, they couldn't have identified me as a Mo disciple based on my words alone, that would be unruly." Huo Lian said.

Zhu Chuan pouted: "They just have more than one thing and one less thing, it's troublesome." ”

While talking, he took off the court clothes from the hanger and put them on Huo Lian layer by layer.

When Huo Lian was still Liang Bazi, Zhu Chuan was just a horse breeder, and he was not qualified to serve and dress Huo Lian, and now he felt extremely happy to be able to do so.

......

......

Zhang Yuan felt that he had fallen asleep standing up, and the surroundings suddenly became noisy, as if he had woken up from a big dream, watching the sky gradually brighten, and seeing that people appeared in the originally empty courtyard like a ghost.

There were guards and officials, coming and going.

Although the Metropolitan Prosecutor's Office is terrifying, its composition is also the same as that of other official offices, with officials and officials handing over various documents.

But Zhang Yuan stood here, and people who came and went as if they couldn't see him.

After a while, it was even more noisy, and the officials hurried, "The governor is here." "The Governor is going to the court today."

Zhang Yuan stood up straight suddenly, it was dark all night, the morning light in the blurred vision was like the sun falling, the golden light was too bright to look at, he could only squint his eyes, and barely saw the young man who came over.

The court clothes of the Metropolitan Inspector are very beautiful, it is said that this is Huo Lian's request to the emperor, saying that everyone scolds me Huo Lian is not like a ghost, I just want everyone to see it, and it is glamorous wherever I go.

So the emperor gave him a gorgeous court dress that he had never had before.

"Hodudu!" Zhang Yuan squinted his eyes and raised his hand to salute, "Zhang Yuan of Jingzhao Mansion asks to see him." ”

Huo Lian didn't ignore him, nor did he let the guards beat him away, but stopped and said, "You want to ask about the ink disciples?" ”

That Zhu Chuan didn't just make things difficult for him, but also conveyed the request, Zhang Yuan hurriedly said: "Huo Dudu pointed out the origin of the murderer in Dali Temple that day, but I traced it for several days without any results, so I can only come to consult the governor again, Huo Dudu can know that they did it, and must know their characteristics." ”

Huo Lian looked at him and asked, "Then what benefits do you give me?" ”

Advantage? Zhang Yuan was stunned, is this a public solicitation?

It's not surprising that Huo Lian is greedy for money, which is normal.

He subconsciously touched his body, and he didn't have much money.

"If there's a need." Zhang Yuanyi gritted his teeth, "The prison of our Jingzhao Mansion can also be used by Huo Dudu. ”

Huo Lian laughed.

His laughter was good, and his eyes were sparkling when he laughed.

But his laugh was short, fleeting.

"Okay." Huo Lian said, "Whether what I said is useful or not, but I said it, I will help you, don't regret it, I will use the prison of Jingzhao Mansion casually." ”

Zhang Yuan thought to himself that if he didn't promise, Huo Dudu wanted to use it, would Fu Yin dare to say no?

It's just that when the time comes, Fu Yin has an excuse to scold him half to death and use it to vent his anger.

"Those people.," Huo Lian looked at him and said, "Wear straw sandals." ”

......

......

In the morning light, the apricot blossom mountain grass is covered with dewdrops.

The bamboo cane swept and fell like rain.

The bamboo cane did not move forward, but was lightly thrust into a rock.

The foot of the straw sandals he was wearing stepped on the stones.

Qixing leaned over and tied the straw sandals, did not retract his feet, but took advantage of the strength to jump, the bamboo cane was pulled out, and the person swept over the mountains and forests as lightly as a flying swallow, and as sharp as a flying sword, where he passed, the grass and trees shook and broke.
