"Cruises are fun, aren't they? Sister Yue'er. Xiang Lian'er got out of the cabin.

"It's really interesting, I've seen the whole capital. Hey, what about the knife? After He Yue'er went ashore, she found that the shadow puppet show was coming to an end, and a female doll held a basket and began to ask for rewards, but she didn't see Yi Xiaodao.

Xianglian'er pursed her lips: "Maybe I can't wait, I'll go back first." Let's go back too. ”

"Hmm" He Yue'er replied and walked towards the inn with Xiang Lian'er.

Yi Xiaodao followed behind the two, and the lights on both sides began to turn off, and it was about to be curfew, and the two people in black cloaks still avoided the lights and kept hurrying.

Yi Xiaodao raised his head and looked ahead: "In front of you is the inner city, the place of the official yamen, are these two people from the official mansion?" But why wear a black cloak? ”

The two in front of them didn't mean to stop at all, Yi Xiaodao sighed: "Alas, it has nothing to do with me, an ordinary person. may have been chased and killed by Kong Leopard, which made me a little nervous. After speaking, Yi Xiaodao turned around and prepared to go back to the inn.

Just as Yi Xiaodao was about to turn around and leave, he saw the two of them jump up, jump onto a private house, and run on the eaves.

"Thief!" A word flashed in Yi Xiaodao's mind, and he suddenly came to his senses, "If you catch the thief, the curfew will be fine, go and see where they are going to steal, and then report to the official!" Maybe there's even a bounty! Yi Xiaodao made up his mind, stared at the two people who were up and down on the house, and followed the streets and alleys on the ground, without being thrown off.

The two of them were in a hurry, and they didn't notice Yi Xiaodao, who was following closely behind them, and swept to a roof, where the thin man stopped, and another strong man also stopped next to him.

"Mr. Wu, is this here?" The stout man asked.

The thin man known as "Mr. Wu" nodded: "That's right, this is it, the prince ordered us to mess up the capital, so that Taishi Li can take advantage of it, and the prince will take the opportunity to raise troops!" This is the fastest way to mess up the capital. ”

"But if we do that, will we hurt the innocent? Isn't it okay to send someone to kill that little emperor like last time? The stout man continued.

Mr. Wu sighed: "Fourth son, you just lost too honestly." How many innocents are hurt is not something we should consider, but what the little emperor should consider. Tang Maru and Bi Tiangao missed, and the little emperor's side was even more heavily guarded, and it would be difficult to start again. ”

The fourth prince muttered: "I might as well let me go..."

Mr. Wu smiled bitterly: "If you have any mistakes, how can I explain to the prince when I go back?" But I don't complain about them, I heard that there are twelve heavenly guards around the emperor, each performing its own duties, I don't know the specific number. Among them, Chen Congwei is highly skilled, and it is thought that they are folded in the hands of Chen Congwei. ”

The fourth prince asked, "Then what should we do now?" Punch in or not? ”

"Let's go and meet the prison department of the Criminal Department first and see what the situation is," Mr. Wu said.

Yi Xiaodao saw the two chatting on the eaves for a while, so he swept towards an official office: "This is... Prison of the Criminal Department? What can I steal from the prison of the penal department? This is where prisoners are held, isn't... Was it sent to save the leopard? Let's go to the police first. ”

Yi Xiaodao thought about it for a while, but decided to report to the official. As soon as he turned around, he saw a figure suddenly rushing in front of him, and slapped it with a palm, Yi Xiaodao hurriedly picked it up and dodged the blow.

"What... As soon as Yi Xiaodao's words came out, he was attacked from behind by a person, and a hand knife slapped on the neck and fainted.

The two of them carried Yi Xiaodao to the corner and put up a straw mat casually, so as not to be seen by the beating man.

"He was able to dodge your palm, it seems that the leopard lost unjustly. Lanyue, you're a little out of your home. ”

"My kung fu is already static braking, slow to fast, it's not unusual to dodge me."

The two of them are dressed in black and white, it is Chen Congwei, with a white shirt and a moon, and a dark robe hidden in the clouds.

Lan Yue asked, "Zangyun, who do you think the two who just entered the prison of the Criminal Department will be?" ”

Zangyun shook his head: "I don't know, just tell Your Majesty truthfully... Someone's coming! ”

Sensing that someone was coming in a carriage at the end of the alley, the two immediately disappeared into the darkness and stared at the comer.

"Hurry, hurry. The master only gave us half an hour. The man in the carriage shouted.

"Third master, did you say that this time, can Manager Liu be rescued?" The groom drove the carriage away, and he couldn't stop chatting with the people in the carriage.

"How do I know? I just want to see how my dad is doing. "It was Liu San, the son of Steward Liu, who was ordered by Li Changwen to come to the prison of the Criminal Department to find Steward Liu and ask Steward Liu to give the truth. Although there were cases of emperors being assassinated from time to time in the Great Qi Dynasty, it does not mean that assassinating the emperor is a trivial matter. On the contrary, once it is verified that there is evidence of the assassination of the emperor, all the three clans will be beheaded, the nine clans will not be officials, and the people in their hometowns will not be officials. For the Daqi Dynasty, which has a lenient criminal law, this is already a heinous crime.

"Coming" Lanyue has excellent hearing, and the conversation between the two can be clearly heard in the sound of galloping horses' hooves, and when he hears Manager Liu, he is sure that the person who came is from the Taishi Mansion.

"You are guarding here, I will report to Your Majesty!" After Zangyun finished speaking, without waiting for Lanyue to answer, he flew up and disappeared into the darkness.

In the prison of the Criminal Department, in the study of Liu Hongliang, the prison director of the Criminal Department.

"Lord Liu, don't come unharmed." The two of them entered the house wearing cloaks, and Mr. Wu spoke.

When Liu Hongliang saw the two of them, he was slightly stunned: "Didn't you say that there is only one person?" Why did two come? ”

"Huh?" Mr. Wu took the lead in taking off his cloak: "Could it be that Lord Fei also asked someone else?" ”

As soon as Liu Hongliang saw the comer, he immediately stood up: "It's you!" How did you guys get here? ”

Mr. Wu didn't bother whether Liu Hongliang had made an appointment with someone else, and said straightforwardly: "Naturally, the prince asked us to come, I heard that Lord Liu said at the beginning of the year that he wanted to vote for our prince, I don't know what his plans are now?" ”

Liu Hongliang smiled a little unnaturally: "Joking, joking." "At the beginning of the year, he didn't believe that the prince would take this matter to heart, and he came up to find it at this juncture, mostly because of Li Changwen's matter.

Mr. Wu said: "It's okay, the prince has been looking up to the adults for a long time, and I hope that the adults can come to our land as soon as possible and give advice." ”

Liu Hong weighed his body fat, got up from the chair with difficulty, approached Mr. Wu and asked, "I don't know... The prince sent Lord Wu here this time, what did he do? ”

Mr. Wu replied: "Lord Liu, the flood in Anhui City is boiling with public resentment, and our prince is also very concerned. I hope to take advantage of this time to have some more chaos in the capital, and his old man will take the opportunity to make trouble... The prince promised that as long as the adults succeeded, it would be okay to be named a marquis, and it would be okay for him to become the third duke in the future. ”

"Sangong" Liu Hongliang suddenly felt a little difficult to breathe, so he didn't make a sound to disturb him, and continued to wait for Mr. Wu's next words.

"As long as you can release a few prisoners, Lord Wang, and make a mess of this capital a little..."Mr. Wu stopped at the point.

Liu Hongliang only felt that his brain exploded with a "bang", and released a few prisoners who could make the capital a little chaotic? What does this prince think? There are indeed many such prisoners in the prison of the Criminal Department, but can they be released as soon as they are released? If those evil bandits and thieves are released to cause trouble, I am afraid that they will not be guilty of stabbing and exterminating the three clans...

Liu Hongliang swallowed a mouthful of saliva with difficulty, unable to answer.

Mr. Wu said with a smile: "Lord Liu, if you are an official in this court, you will naturally be inseparable, but if you intend to take refuge in the prince, this matter is instigated by the prince, what is the crime?" ”

Liu Hongliang thought for a while and said, "Let the lower officials... Think again. ”

"Good! Although Liu-sama thinks about it, it's just that we are also pressed for time. I'll see you tomorrow. Mr. Wu simply responded neatly, and turned around and left with the fourth son.

Liu Hongliang touched the edge of the table, his legs and feet weakened, and he sat down on the chair: "That prince is going to do something... Such a big thing... If the emperor is mediocre, it will be enough to rebel. It's just that now His Majesty has the appearance of a Ming monarch, and then go over there..."

Liu Hongliang couldn't help but fumble on the table with both hands, and at this time he urgently needed something in his hands to relieve his nervousness. Suddenly, one thing starts. Liu Hongliang picked it up and looked at it, it turned out to be a paperweight, with a raccoon carved on it.

The fierce man, the seventh son of the dragon, resembles a tiger, anxious for justice and righteousness, righteous and insistent, and can distinguish between right and wrong, and judge impartially. Liu Hongliang looked at the raccoon paperweight in his hand and fell into deep thought...

After a while, the door of the study was pushed open again, and Liu Hongliang looked up to see that it was Liu San from Li Changwen's mansion.

Liu San gave a salute: "Lord Liu, the matter entrusted by our master has already been known, please make it convenient." ”

Liu Hongliang pinched the relentless in his hand, nodded and said, "Well, you take my token to the prison of the Criminal Department, and when you see my token, they will naturally be convenient." But... It's only a quarter of an hour, and I apologize. As he spoke, he took out a token from the drawer of the table and handed it to Liu San.

Liu San took the token in his hand and said happily: "I thank Lord Liu on behalf of our lord and my father, and I will repay you in the future!" With that, he didn't procrastinate and left the study.

Liu Hongliang looked at the relentless paperweight in his hand again, and unconsciously sweated in his palms, and there were already beads of sweat on the paperweight.

"Your Majesty already has the appearance of a Ming monarch, how can you act for the tiger! Report it! Liu Hongliang thought secretly, stood up with a big belly, called the messenger to prepare the carriage, and decided to go to the palace to report Mr. Wu, Liu San and others.

After a short time, the messenger prepared the carriage, Liu Hongliang ordered to stop at the side door, then waved the messenger away, and secretly came out of the side door, ready to get on the car and enter the palace.

"Where is Lord Yanagi?"

Liu Hongliang looked back and saw that it was Mr. Wu and the fourth son, who were waiting at the side door early, and they were in a hurry to come out, and they didn't see it at all.

"Xiaguan... Someone from Xiaguan's house, my wife's family suddenly had an old illness, and I need to go back quickly. Liu Hongliang squeezed the paperweight in his sleeve and said hurriedly.

Mr. Wu smiled sadly: "This life, old age, sickness and death are human nature." The laws of the Great Qi Dynasty are relaxed, and it is not necessary for family members to go home to visit when they are sick. It's just that... Why did you go astray? ”

A little bead of sweat appeared on Liu Hongliang's forehead: "This... This side door... Close to my home and easy to go back. ”

Mr. Wu put away his smile, stared at Liu Hongliang and said, "I don't know how to lift!" Look for death! As soon as the words fell, the fourth prince took off his cloak and approached.

Liu Hongliang clenched the paperweight in his hand tightly and shouted: "I'll fight with you!" ”
