The two of them didn't have an umbrella, they just sat in the snow with the first snow, drinking the warm plum wine in the pot. Shen Xuan, who was eating and drinking on the side, also ate and drank enough to take Zheng Bingzhou to join the team of the two, and Zheng Bingzhou raised his eyebrows at the Shen family with the plum wine in his hand to show off. In the next second, he was snatched by Zhao Keer. Zheng Bingzhou dared to be angry but didn't dare to speak, Shen Jiayi smiled and pulled him to sit down, pushed a wine bowl over, and Zhao Keer also gave him a full of wine as Zheng Bingzhou expected.

The team has grown, and this first snow doesn't seem to be so cold.

On the other side, Xu Yangqiu still held up an umbrella for Wanrong, Wanrong was a little stunned, but she didn't refuse, and after bowing respectfully to Xu Yangqiu, she said softly: "Master Xu, the will of heaven is getting cold, so I will go back to the house first." ”

After finishing speaking, Wanrong ran towards the first snow.

"Hey..." Xu Yangqiu wanted to stop her, but she didn't know what to say after stopping, just a moment of hesitation, she couldn't see Wanrong's figure, Xu Yangqiu sighed lightly, and also walked in the direction of Linwangfu.

It's just that what he didn't know was that after Xu Yangqiu left, Wanrong walked out of a dark alley, her mouth was tightly pursed, her hands were nervously rubbing her sleeves, and she looked at Xu Yangqiu who was leaving with more hesitation and confusion in her eyes.

The first snow made the soldiers at the gate of the criminal department shiver with cold. Behind them, the three black-clothed men easily flipped into the high strength of the criminal department.

The man in black cooperated very tacitly, and after entering the Criminal Department, he hid his figure, deftly avoided the patrolling soldiers, and in a dark place they stunned three lone soldiers, quickly changed into their clothes, and went to the prison of the Criminal Department.

The prison of the Criminal Department is the most heavily defended place in the entire Criminal Department, there are two teams of soldiers patrolling back and forth at the door, and there are six people standing solemnly with spears at the door.

The man in black seemed to know the deployment of the criminal department very well, and boldly stepped forward and said in a deep voice to the solemn soldiers: "Prison patrol, open the door." ”

The soldier guarding the door nodded, without the slightest suspicion, turned around and opened the door of the prison, and the three men in black also walked in in a grand manner.

There are still two people in the prison to defend, but these two people have been secretly drinking because of the cold weather, and now they are already a little drunk. After the three of them stepped forward, the two of them were a little suspicious, stood up and greeted them, and said drunkly: "Take a look at the patrol order." ”

The three men in black glanced at each other, then struck together, knocking them out without much effort. After getting the prison key, he quickly found Cai Yong's cell.

At this time, Cai Yong had already experienced the spinal cane, and he had not yet recovered, and was lying on the haybed wailing.

After hearing the sound of the key unlocking, he became excited, and his expression was distorted by pain. He got up and saw three men in black walk in. One of the men in black walked over to the table inside the cell and smashed the tea bowl on it.

Before Cai Yong could speak, the fragments of the tea bowl cut his neck.

The warm feeling of blood gushing out of his neck made him look a little dazed, and he subconsciously raised his hand to cover the cut wound. He wanted to speak, he opened his mouth, he wanted to ask for help, but he couldn't make any sound. Breathing also began to become difficult rapidly.

The scenery in front of me changed, and what I saw was already the roof, and after that, there was endless darkness.

The man in black stepped forward to help him close his eyes, and the other two men in black, one took out a letter from his arms, and the other neatly arranged the scene.

The three of them quickly made everything, then walked out of the cell, locked it, hung the key back on the soldier, and left the cell in a grand manner.

They didn't kill anyone else, because it would be suspicious. Now that Cai Yong is dead, even if those soldiers know that he is not committing suicide, they will not say anything, because if their mistakes cause Cai Yong to be killed, they will punish the nine clans. The man in black helped them set up the scene and made the illusion of Cai Yong's suicide, so they would ride a donkey downhill, and even help them confirm the truth of Cai Yong's suicide in order to protect themselves.

After doing everything, the men in black left the punishment department, and then they dispersed, changed into regular clothes and blended into the crowd, and disappeared into the dark night when the first snow fell.

Yu Yi and Bai Jiangyi returned to Linwang's Mansion and saw everyone sitting in a circle. Looking at the good wine and meat on the table, Bai Jiangyi became excited again. Originally, she was holding Yu Yi's hand and let go without any hesitation, and when Yu Yi reacted, she had already joined the drinking team.

And Yu Yi was about to join when he was stopped by a familiar voice behind him.

"Zilin, don't wait for me?"

Everyone also looked at the voice, and what they saw was the crown prince Zhao Changge in regular clothes, and he was still carrying two pots of wine in his hands.

"Why do you look like a rich kid today?" Zhao Changge stepped forward with a smile, and after dropping a sentence, he skipped Yu Yi and walked towards the people sitting together.

Everyone present knew what kind of temperament this prince was, so they did not have any restraints, and skillfully took the tea bowl for him and poured it full of wine. Yu Yi also shook his head helplessly and sat down.

It was not until four o'clock that the people were taken back to the house by their respective carriages.

Bai Jiangyi's amount of alcohol is actually not very good, but he loves to drink. Even if he only joined the drinking game in the second half, he was a little drunk at this time. By the time Yu Ye helped her to the bedroom, she was already asleep.

After Yu Yi instructed Ah Ruan to help her wipe her body, she also returned to her bedroom.

Nothing was said all night.

The first snow lasted all night, and by the time the sun rose on the second day, there was already a thin layer of snow on the road, and the Molin Guards began to clear the road in front of the house early.

The air was good, and Yu Yi didn't take the carriage, so he walked towards the Qinzheng Hall in the light of the morning light and stepping on the light snow.

In the early dynasty, Emperor An sat on the dragon chair and said nothing, but the ministers all knew that this was Emperor An's angry expression, and everyone had already heard about it and knew what happened last night. Yu Yi was also on his way to the palace this morning, only to learn that Cai Yong hanged himself in his cell last night.

Yu Yi in the audience looked serious, analyzing the reason for Cai Yong's suicide in his mind.

With his sins, he will not be able to find a way to live in the laws of Qingyang. Why commit suicide if you are bound to die? Does he want to die, or does someone not want him to live?

"Cai Yong, I hanged myself in prison last night and left a confession on the table." It took a long time for Emperor An to speak, and his tone contained anger.

Yu Yi was interrupted by Emperor An's words, and after taking a step to the left and walking out of the crowd, he stretched out his sleeves and saluted: "Your Majesty, what did Cai Yong use to hang himself?" ”

Emperor An glanced at Gonggong Li, who understood and stepped forward to reply: "Fragments of tea bowls in prison." ”

Yu Yiyan lowered his eyes and thought for a moment, and said, "Your Majesty, the minister wants to go to the scene to have a look." ”

"What do you think is strange about this?" An Di asked.

"The minister doesn't dare to make a conclusion now," Yu Yi lowered his head, "I hope Your Majesty will allow me to go." ”

Emperor An exhaled deeply, and the anger in his tone had disappeared, replaced by a little tiredness: "If you want to go, go there, Cai Yong's confession will be printed by Gonggong Li for you later." That's all for today, retreat. ”
