Make every effort to berth the Sui embankment tonight, and forget not to make the seagulls suspicious. Falling flowers follow the flowing water, and flowing water loves falling flowers. Hou Fangyu and Li Xiangjun were in love with each other, which attracted Ruan Dacheng's jealousy, and he planned to set up a drug bureau to introduce Hou Fangyu step by step.

Since meeting Li Xiangjun, Hou Fangyu has fallen in love with this peerless beauty with both talent and appearance, and looks forward to staying with her day and night. However, his house is surrounded by walls and is destitute, how can there be silver in and out of the wind and snow. Just when he was at a loss and had nothing to do, Yang Longyou sent an ivory white silk fan, which made Hou Fangyu and Li Xiangjun a pair of beautiful people. Hou and Li were grateful to Yang Longyou, but they didn't know that Yang Longyou was a cat giving a gift to a mouse - with ulterior motives.

That night, Hou Fangyu and Yang Longyou were drinking and admiring the moon in the flower hall, and when the two were drinking proudly, Hou Fangyu poured wine for Yang Longyou and said: "Brother Yang, this time it is all up to you to fulfill me and Xiangjun, and the great grace and great virtue are inscribed." When Yang Longyou heard this, his eyebrows fluttered, and he was confused.

He said to Hou Fangyu with a smoky smile: "Brother Hou smiled, I can't hide it, I'm just a middle bridge-builder, and the one who really supports you is Lord Ruan, the Shaoqing of Taichang Temple." ”

Yang Longyou's words, to Hou Fangyu's ears, were undoubtedly a bolt from the blue. In the past, Ruan Dacheng repeatedly persuaded him to join the bureaucracy, but Hou Fangyu refused on the grounds that he was idle and wild and had no intention of making a name for himself. Now Ruan Dacheng has wooed him with a rare treasure fan, and Hou Fangyu owes him a great favor.

Looking at Yang Longyou, who was flushed and gradually drunk, Hou Fangyu felt a kind of loneliness and helplessness in his heart. In a fit of rage, he spilled the wine on the ground and left the Yang Mansion with indescribable indignation.

As the saying goes, "If you are not afraid of thieves, you are afraid of thieves." Hou Fangyu was careful everywhere, and he still fell in love with Ruan Dacheng's way. Thinking that he was about to join the flattering court, Hou Fangyu was disgusted in his heart. So far, he can only tell Li Xiangjun the truth, a pair of mandarin ducks may have to share their own things.

After listening to Hou Fangyu's story, Li Xiangjun frowned and tears on her apricot cheeks, and she repeatedly reprimanded Hou Fangyu for being a scholar, but he was careless and did not pay close attention. Hou Fangyu was annoyed and sad, beating his chest. Li Xiangjun scolded Hou Fangyu with some enlightening words. She took out the makeup box, handed the silver accumulated over the years to Hou Fangyu's hand, and said softly: "Your intentions, the concubine body has understood, take these silver to redeem for me, return the fan to Ruan Dacheng, and don't associate with such capricious and spineless people in the future." ”

Hou Fangyu nodded, retrieved the ivory white silk fan, and returned to the Yang Mansion. He was just about to knock on the door, when someone suddenly shouted loudly behind him: "Brother Hou, you go quickly, Lord Ruan is furious when he learns that you refuse to act as a staff member for him, and now he is sending someone to arrest you." ”

Hou Fangyu let out a long sigh and said to Yang Longyou: "Xiangjun is really as wise as a torch, and he has seen the true face of Ruan Dacheng's Lushan Mountain. This is a personal vendetta for him, and he is angry with me. Yang Longyou knew it,

repeatedly urged Hou Fangyu to flee quickly. Hou Fangyu kept his feet on the ground, and ran away. In a panic, the ivory white silk fan fell to the ground.

Yang Longyou leaned over and picked up the silk fan, and at this time, the torches behind him were long, and the sound of killing was everywhere, and the first person was broad-shouldered and round-waisted, holding a saber. It turned out that Zheng Zhutou was here. He clasped his fists at Yang Longyou and saluted: "Lord Yang, I received a report from Gou Si, the housekeeper of Ruan Mansion, that the ivory white silk fan was lost in the house, so I came to visit and investigate. ”

Yang Longyou listened to Zheng Zhutou's words, pretended to lose his temper, he looked at Zheng Zhutou with crooked eyebrows, and yelled at him: "Zheng Zhutou, what do you mean by this? Could it be that you suspect that I am the one who entered the mansion and stole the fan?"

Zheng Zhutou smiled at Yang Longyou, and at this time, Huang Lin, the son of the county order, flashed out, pointed to the fan in Yang Longyou's hand and asked, "Lord Yang, where did this fan come from?"

Yang Longyou told Huang Lin that this was Hou Fangyu's family heirloom, and there was an amber pendant on the fan pendant.

Huang Lin squeezed out a trace of saliva from his jagged teeth, and he immediately scolded: "It's just a fart, how can Hou Fangyu's poor sour hold the treasure in the palace, it is obviously stolen." ”

Yang Longyou looked at Huang Lin with an innocent face and told him directly that he had no idea about this matter.

Huang Lin nodded, reached out and grabbed the ivory white silk fan, and took it in his arms. He said to Yang Longyou: "Lord Yang, Hou Fangyu's friendship with you is extraordinary, and now he is suspected of stealing treasures.

You'd better tell the truth about where he is, lest you set yourself on fire and ruin your future. ”

Yang Longyou told Huang Lin that Jinling was so big, he really didn't know where Hou Fangyu was hiding. But since Li Xiangjun is in love, maybe he will know. Huang Lin smiled evilly, and said to Yang Longyou: "The heroes are all dog slaughterers, and the Qinglou is a righteous prostitute. If this matter is satisfactorily completed, it cannot be crossed, and it is not appropriate for us to come forward. Yang Longyou understood and rushed to Meixianglou.

Li Xiangjun pushed the window and looked up at the sky, the cold moon was like a bright moon, and the stars were like broken jade. The fishing fire on the Qinhuai River is vague, and sometimes there is a beautiful and graceful song from the boat. Touching the scene, Xiangjun felt nostalgic, and then composed a poem: "And Lu and another dynasty, the two hearts carved several generations." At the end of a poem, two lines of tears fell.

But at this moment, Yang Longyou ran upstairs with a panicked expression and said to her: "Miss Li, the big thing is not good, Fang Yu ...... him." ”

Li Xiangjun walked around, frowned, and came to Yang Longyou. She asked in a whisper, "Brother Yang, what's wrong?"

Yang Longyou took a sip of tea and said to Li Xiangjun: "Miss Li, Fang Yu is suspected of stealing, and Zheng Zhutou is going around to take people?"

Li Xiangjun knew that Hou Fangyu had read the books of sages and was a humble gentleman, and he would never do anything like stealing chickens and touching dogs and committing adultery. There must be something else going on here.

Yang Longyou saw Li Xiangjun looking at him with puzzled eyes, and told her bluntly that she had brushed the face of Huang Lin, the son of the county order, before, and he held a grudge against him, and he was looking for the bad luck of the prince.

Li Xiangjun thought about it carefully, Huang Lin was indeed negative and left that day, and let go of the cruel words, she must have a little color. I didn't expect him to be angry with Hou Gongzi.

A word to wake up the person in the dream, Yang Longyou's words made Li Xiangjun uneasy, if Huang Lin knew Hou Fangyu's hiding place, with his style of acting with retribution, he would naturally poison Hou Fangyu. Maybe Hou Gongzi will be beaten into a trick, and he will really be convicted of the crime. Thinking of this, Li Xiangjun took some silver taels, and gave Yang Longyou the jade and gold hairpin he was wearing. She looked miserable, and Pear Blossom told Yang Longyou with rain that she must let Hou Gongzi take care of herself, and she would work up and down to wash away his grievances.

Yang Longyou learned from Li Xiangjun's mouth that Hou Fangyu was hiding in Wuyi Alley, and he hurried back to Taichang Temple non-stop and truthfully reported the news to Ruan Dacheng. Ruan Dacheng rolled his evil eyes up, gritted his steel teeth, and immediately ordered Hou Fangyu to be arrested. At this time, Gou Si took the opportunity to say to him: "Master, I heard some gossip outside, saying that the master made a feud with Hou Fangyu because of Li Xiangjun, and now."

You might as well stay out of the matter and hand over the case to the Huang County Order. ”

Ruan Dacheng grinned, tugging at his mouseker and nodding his head. People are terrible, and now watching the fire from the other side, with the help of Huang County's order, it is indeed a wise move to eradicate Hou Fangyu. Ruan Dacheng praised Gou Sida. rewarded him with a piece of gold, and sent him to the county mansion to deal with Huang Yaowu in this matter.

Huang Yaowu opened the letter, and when he saw that it was written by Ruan Dacheng himself, he didn't dare to slack off, and immediately sent Zheng Zhutou to Wuyi Lane to arrest Hou Fangyu. Hou Fangyu got into trouble for no reason, and he was depressed in his heart, so he had to chant poems to relieve his sorrows, but he didn't want to lure the wolf into the room with the sound of Lang Lang's book.

Because of Ruan Dacheng's letter and Huang Lin's obstruction, Huang Yaowu was promoted to ask the case. The three classes of officials were lined up on the left and right, and Master Bu sat next to Huang Yaowu to serve the clerks. Huang Yaowu was shocked, and ordered Hou Fangyu to be escorted to the court.

Huang Yaowu blew his beard and glared, and roared at Hou Fangyu: "It is difficult to draw dragons and tigers, and it is difficult to draw bones, and you don't know your heart. Hou Fangyu, you read the Four Books and the Five Classics, when you know filial piety and shame, how can you do the work of a chicken and a dog thief?"

Hou Fangyu's expression was upright, his mouth was like a river, and he fought hard in the public court to wash away his grievances. Huang Yaowu was furious when he heard this, threw a stick, and ordered the official to slap Hou Fangyu twenty.

Hou Fangyu was a talented man, his body was weak and he couldn't help it, and the officials opened the bow left and right, beating his face to bruise and swell.

After the torture, Huang Yaowu said to Hou Fangyu commandingly: "Hou Fangyu knew that the injured person was Junjie, you had better explain how to steal the white silk ivory fan to the county now." lest they suffer any more flesh and skin. ”

Hou Fangyu's face did not change, and he sharply denounced Huang Yaowu for extorting confessions by torture and violating the "Da Ming Law".

Huang Yaowu's eyes rolled upward, and he swallowed saliva from time to time in his mouth. He whispered to Master Bu: "Master Bu, this surname Hou is a stone from the thatched pit - it smells and is hard. How can I never get a confession from him?"

Master Bu muttered in his ear. Huang Yaowu ordered Hou Fangyu to be arrested and put in prison quickly.

Li Xiangjun's heart was like a deer in Meixianglou, and she was uneasy, where did she know that Ruan Dacheng was bent on putting Hou Fangyu to death, and he insisted that the ivory white silk fan was stolen by Hou Fangyu when he came to the mansion as a guest.

Huang Yaowu made a difficulty, although Ruan Dacheng continued to put pressure on him, but he couldn't convict Hou Fangyu with one side. Master Bu told him that the bell must be tied to the bell, and as long as Yang Longyou said a word, Hou Fangyu could be convicted.

Huang Yaowu asked Master Bu what he should do? Master Bu sneered a few times and told Huang Yaowu.

How can the things in the palace be lost to the people, there is no need for Yang Longyou to identify, as long as he says a word, the white silk ivory fan is not owned by the Hou family, and the following things will be easy to do.

With Master Bu's poisonous plan, Huang Yaowu immediately informed Ruan Dacheng by letter. Ruan Dacheng immediately found Yang Longyou and asked him to sign his name on the source of the white silk fan. He then sent the complaint and the letter to Huang Yaowu.

On the second day, Hou Fangyu still gritted his teeth and kept silent. Huang Yaowu took out the so-called evidence, and Hou Fangyu shouted loudly, asking Yang Longyou and Ruan Dacheng to come out and confront him. Huang Yaowu

He also drank and ordered the officials to beat Hou Fangyu to the point that his skin was open. Looking at Hou Fangyu, who was angry, Huang Yaowu viciously told him that if he didn't confess again, he would be killed.

Hou Fangyu was helpless, so he had to draw a charge under the confession. Huang Yaowu originally wanted to cut the grass and eradicate the roots, and sentenced Hou Fangyu to death. Master Bu told him that Lord Ruan just wanted to vent his evil anger, as long as he took the surname Hou away, so that Lord Ruan could get along with Li Xiangjun day and night.

Huang Yaowu waved his pen and sentenced Hou Fangyu to exile. When Zhang Sheng heard this, he immediately came to Li Xiangjun to discuss. There is no impermeable wall in the world, and Ruan Dacheng's personal revenge on Hou Fangyu actually went away. For a while, it became a topic of teahouse and wine. Shopkeeper Li told Cunyi and the three of them the whole story, and Cunyi was filled with indignation and vowed to save Hou Fangyu from prison.
