Xie Lin looked at Zhou Gu with blank eyes, wanting to hear him explain his doubts.

Zhou Gu didn't say anything anymore, and said to Xie Lin: "What's the point of sitting here?" Why don't you go out and race horses? ”

Xie Lin looked at him and reminded, "Your injuries are not healed yet. ”

"It's all right."

Xie Lin shook his head, "Here, the snow outside the city hasn't melted yet, and when you go out to race horses, the horses can't run, right?" ”

"Then go hunting." Zhou Gu said.

Xie Lin was a little hesitant, "I don't think it's better to don't want it, didn't you listen to Su Rong's warning that day to take care of your injuries?" If you can't let go of her heart, you have to listen to her. ”

Zhou Gu was speechless.

Xie Lin saw that he dispelled his thoughts of going out of the city, and suggested to him, "If you are depressed in your heart and want to vent, why don't we ask a few brothers to go to the building to listen to the music?" Let the girl in the building play and sing the general's song? ”

Zhou Gu was not interested, "The girl in the building plays and sings the general's song, are you sure it's not an insulting general's song?" ”

Xie Lin scratched his head, "This is just to have fun." ”

Zhou Gu sneered, "Dignitaries and dignitaries are really looking for any kind of fun, in my opinion, Jing Zhaoyin's people are really derelict in their duties if they don't rectify such an atmosphere in the Red Mansion Restaurant." After speaking, he squinted at Xie Lin, "Didn't you go to the Red Mansion before?" How? Now that you have learned the atmosphere of the gentlemen in the capital? Aren't you afraid that King Ryan will break your legs? ”

Xie Lin immediately forgive, "Brother, don't, I really haven't been to it once, the first time I entered the Red Mansion, or brother, you took me to the third floor of Jiangning County, after returning to Beijing, I prepared for the scientific examination, after the scientific examination, I was dragged by my father to investigate the case with him, how can I have time?" I just heard people say, the girl in the building played the general's song sonorously and powerfully, very interesting, I haven't heard of it, I want to relieve your boredom, if you don't want to go, don't go, don't sell me. ”

Zhou Gu let him go, tapped his fingers on the table, and stood up, "Let's go." ”

"Where are you going? Do you want to go back? Xie Lin stretched out his hand and dragged him, "Don't, how long have we just been sitting?" I finally got out for a trip. ”

"If you don't go back, go to your mansion, while the case of the people locked up in your mansion has not been closed, I will go to meet the eldest princess and Ning Ze." Zhou Gu said.

Xie Lin muttered, "This is not a return home." ”

Zhou Gu looked at him, "Then you can't go back, if you don't go back, I'll go by myself." ”

Xie Lin was helpless, "Let's go, go back." ”

He followed Zhou Gu curiously, "What are you going to see them for?" The eldest princess will not end well, as for Ning Ze, with the Marquis of Nanping, he will not be beheaded, but there will be no good end, even if he has good results in the scientific examination, he will be removed. ”

"Let them do something other than the case." Zhou Gu said and walked out of the room.

Xie Lin suddenly became interested, "That's okay." ”

The two went out of the teahouse and went directly to the Ruian Palace.

In today's Ruian Palace, only the eldest princess Ning Yao and her brother Ning Ze are imprisoned. But the two weren't locked up.

The Ruian Mansion did not treat Ning Yao harshly, but served it with good food and drink, except that it could not be left the cell, it was suitable for pregnant women.

Because King Ryan is not sure whether His Majesty will keep the child in her womb, she naturally can't have an accident until the Holy Decree is disposed of.

After Zhou Gu and Xie Lin entered the mansion, Zhou Gu first went to meet King Ruian.

King Ryan was really sick this time, he had already drunk the decoction, and he was lying on the bed, just getting rid of fever and sweating.

Seeing Zhou Gu coming, he waved his hand and asked him, "Why did you come to Fuzhong?" Are you looking for Xie Lin to play? ”

Zhou Gu shook his head, "I want to meet the eldest princess and Ning Ze, and bother the prince to be accommodating." ”

King Ryan didn't ask much, and waved his hand, "This is simple, go ahead!" But you have to be measured, the child in her belly has to be left to His Majesty to dispose of, don't make a fuss. ”

Zhou Gu nodded, "Don't worry, Lord Wang." ”

Xie Lin accompanied Zhou Gu to the place where Ning Ze was held first, and Zhou Gu planned to talk to Ning Ze first.

Ning Ze is not treated so well compared to Ning Yao, he doesn't say anything when he breaks his fingers, and he doesn't have a talisman in his stomach, so he is naturally much worse than Ning Yao in terms of eating and drinking, and the dark prison he lives in is not as good as the kennel, it is cloudy and cold.

Ning Ze has long since lost the appearance of a handsome son when he first saw Su Rong in the Great Prince's Mansion, and now he is dark, thin and pale, locked up in a dark prison all day long, his spirit is about to collapse, and he almost wants to commit suicide.

But he is afraid of death, and it is impossible to commit suicide, and it is better to die than to live.

The cell door opened, and Zhou Gu took the lead in entering the dungeon, and when he kicked in and out of the door, the smell was so strong that Zhou Gu almost took back the outstretched foot and turned around and left.

Xie Lin also felt similar to Zhou Gu.

However, Zhou Gu didn't leave, he still went into the dark prison, and Xie Lin could only pinch his nose and follow him inside.

Ning Ze was not chained or tied by a pillar, and in the small cell, he could move freely, but only to such a little freedom.

In the past, it was the subordinates who brought the food in, left without saying a word, asked without squeaking, and he didn't have anyone to talk to.

Today, he thought that someone was coming again, but he didn't expect that the people who came in were Zhou Gu and Xie Lin. He has nothing to do with these two people, Zhou Gu is a person from the East Palace, and the Ruian Palace, where Xie Lin was born, has always remained neutral, if it weren't for the fact that Feng Ling simply cut off his fingers in front of Xie Lin that day, and Xie Lin's face did not change, subverting his cognition, to be honest, he used to look down on an idle little prince like Xie Lin who grew up under the protection of his ancestors.

When he was arrogant before, he was favored by his father, and he had a sister who became the eldest princess, and he could trample his brother Ning Chi under his feet, and he felt that no one was as good as him. When I came to the capital, I didn't have much restraint, thinking that the eldest prince and the second prince would join forces and be able to set up half the sky to call for wind and rain, who would have thought that the scientific examination had not yet been released, and her sister was exposed, so he ended up like this.

He regretted dying, knowing that today, he would not enter Beijing alive or dead, and he would not take the scientific examination. Just like Ning Chi, if he didn't come to Beijing for scientific research, he shook with Ning Chi at home and killed Ning Chi, and his father's title was his. Isn't it fragrant for him to keep his title?

Now that he saw Zhou Gu and Xie Lin, he still asked in a panic, "What are you doing here?" Did His Majesty say that he would let me go? ”

Zhou Gu looked at him with an expressionless face, "Ning Ze, do you want to live or die?" ”

Ning Ze's pupils shrank, and he was a little frightened, "Of course I want to live." ”

Zhou Gu looked at his timid appearance like a mouse, and he looked down on him, but often the more unproductive people are, the more useful they are, because no one looks down on him, they will look down on him and be careless because they can't look down on him, "If you want to live, then what I ask you, you can say anything, if you don't say anything, or if you don't say enough, you just wait for death!" ”

After he finished speaking, he said coldly: "Anyway, it's easier to crush you than an ant." ”
