[The seventy-first year of the Great Qiankang Yuan, April 24, Chenshi, Tsing Yi Weibei Anping Division, Thousand Household Offices]

Today, Nangong Buyu encountered a problem.

Just because early this morning, Yang Wenyuan, a thousand households of the Nan'an Ping Division, personally handed over an extremely important person to him. The name of that person is Pei Caibao.

At this time, Pei Caibao was imprisoned in a secret room in the North Anping Division.

Of course, it was not Pei Caibao or Yang Wenyuan who made Nangong silent, but the two princes behind this case.

......

After Li Ci, the king of Jin, returned safely from the Jinding Cave, he only felt as if he had escaped from death, and after returning to the palace, he thought about it repeatedly, and suddenly felt that the previous things were a little too much.

He discussed with his confidant and friend Song Jinhua for a long time, and then decided to make major adjustments to his future plans.

On the night when Li Ci escaped from Lu Huoli's clutches and returned to Chang'an City, he came to the Wei Mansion in person again. This time, he sincerely expressed his heartfelt gratitude to his fourth brother.

That night, the two brothers talked about the world's major events by candlelight, and they both talked quite freely.

Naturally, the two princes also reached a unity of opinion.

Li Ci sincerely confessed to Li Zhen that he would never do anything to be an enemy of the fourth brother from now on, and in the future, he would also strongly support the fourth brother to sit on the throne!

Li Xi also repeatedly said that the fourth brother has good talent and prestige, and in the future, if the fourth brother takes over the throne, it will be a blessing for the people of the world and a blessing for all the people from all over the world!

Li Jin saw that Li Ci's words were so sincere, and his expression was not fake, and he couldn't help but be moved in his heart, so Li Jin patted Li Ci's shoulder and responded with a smile, in the future, no matter whether he can take over the throne or not, in his heart, the eighth brother will always be his dearest brother!

At that moment, the relationship between the two brothers seemed to have reached a new and wonderful height!

In this world, how many brothers have emotions are exactly the same: they seem to be sincere, but they also seem to be completely incapable of scrutiny, as if they are intimate, and as if the north wind blows gently and will be blown away in an instant......

After Li Xi returned home, he remembered Li Jin's instructions in his heart, and when it was dawn the next day, he asked Song Jinhua to go to the Tsing Yi Guard and convey his secret order to Shen Huan.

There is no need for the person called "Pei Caibao" to live in the world!

Shen Huan didn't dare to disobey the order, so he ordered Yang Wenyuan to dispose of that Pei Caibao as soon as possible.

Similarly, Li Jin, the king of Wei, also sent someone to Nangong Buyu to give the latest instructions of the king of Wei: release Kang Youren immediately.

Regarding the release of Kang Youren, Nangong was silent and naturally didn't say a word, and immediately opened the secret room and let the person go!

However, Yang Wenyuan had an extra mind before acting, he was afraid that someone would find him to "settle accounts after the autumn", and as soon as his brain turned, he would have a plan. Under the pretext of "following the order of Governor Shen, he transferred the criminal Pei Caibao to Nangong Qianhu", so he simply transferred Pei Caibao to Nangong secretly.

So, in the face of Pei Caibao's "hot potato", Nangong Bu couldn't help but fall into a dilemma.

He already knew King Wei's intentions and didn't want Pei Caibao to continue to live in the world. If at this time, he returned the prisoner to Shen Huan, it would be extremely inappropriate.

However, if he really wants to do it and kill Pei Caibao, he can't do it......

After all, Pei Caibao was previously a thousand households of the Nan'an Ping Division, and he had also worked with him for many years. Although Pei Caibao is arrogant and usually unruly, he is silent about his Nangong, but he is quite passable, and several times, Sun Xun deliberately made things difficult for him Nangong, but Pei Caibao relieved him.

Even if Pei Caibao is not kind to him, but after all, he is also a colleague, and now that he is a killer of Pei Caibao, Nangong is still very unbearable in his silent heart......

So, Nangong was silent and helpless, so he had to call Xu Ke.

When Xu Ke entered the official room, Nangong called him into his inner room without saying a word, and Nangong did not shy away from concealing it, so he informed Xu Ke about the case of Pei Caibao. At the end, Nangong asked Xu Ke bluntly, Brother Xian felt that Pei Caibao risked his life on the first day of the fourth month of April, and testified for you in the palace, was he really instructed by King Wei behind his back?

After thinking about it for a while, Xu Ke still shook his head, he still couldn't believe that Pei Caibao agreed to rescue Mingyue, but he actually got a secret order from King Wei. However, as for what kind of connection happened between the two of them, and why King Wei was determined to kill Pei Caibao, Xu Ke has never been able to figure it out.

At that moment, Xu Ke smiled and said, Pei Caibao's matter will simply be handled by the younger brother, and Brother Nangong will not have to worry about it!

Nangong was silent, and naturally he was happy to throw this "hot potato" to Xu Ke. So, Nangong led Xu Ke to the secret room where Pei Caibao was being held, and after he opened the door of the secret room for Xu Ke, he immediately retreated.

Xu Ke walked into the secret room, only to see Pei Caibao lying there with scars and dying breath, his condition was unbearable......

Xu Ke walked to Pei Caibao's approach, only to see that this former majestic Nansi Qianhu was lying on a small couch at this moment, his eyes were bruised and swollen, his face was full of blood, and his whole body was covered with traces of whipping the soldering iron. His arms seemed to have been grabbed by a sharp object, all covered with dark red blood, three ribs had been broken on his chest, and his legs had been clamped countless times with sticks......

Pei Caibao reluctantly opened his swollen eyes, saw that it was Xu Ke, smiled bitterly, and did not wait for Xu Ke to speak, but greeted first: Tower

"Xu Qianhu, you're here!"

"Pei Caibao, how are you ...... Ended up like this?!" Xu Ke saw that Pei Caibao had been miserably abused so far, and he couldn't bear it, and he was also a little puzzled.

"It's nothing! Yang Wenyuan, thinking that just by his two moments, he wanted me to speak, bah! I Pei someone...... How can it be so easy...... cough cough cough ......"

Pei Caibao's heart was excited, and with a slight force on his chest, he coughed up a few mouthfuls of blood, it seems that under Yang Wenyuan's torture before, Pei Caibao was really injured.

Seeing Pei Caibao in front of him, under such a heavy punishment, he was still so hard-mouthed, Xu Ke couldn't help but secretly appreciate this person's backbone, just by virtue of this, Xu Ke also felt that this Pei Caibao was more than a hundred times better than Yang Wenyuan.

Xu Ke then asked:

"Why did Yang Wenyuan torture you like this to extract a confession, and what did he want you to confess before?"

Pei Caibao took a strong breath, he tried to get up from the couch, but his body moved slightly, and he immediately felt extremely painful all over his body, Rao is so, Pei Caibao still said reluctantly:

"Xu Qianhu, why do you bother with those things? Anyway, I didn't say a word about what Yang Wenyuan wanted to ask!hahaha...... cough cough cough ......"

At this time, Pei Caibao still had the heart to laugh, but when he smiled, he immediately touched the qi in his heart, and couldn't help coughing again.

Xu Ke looked at the ugly short and fat old man in front of him, and saw that when he was about to die, he still had the heroic spirit of a chivalrous man on his face, and he felt even more unbearable in his heart, and his face couldn't help but show pity......

"Xu Qianhu, are you here this time, are you here to send someone Pei on the road?"

Pei Caibao saw Xu Ke's expression full of pity, and he immediately knew the other party's intention.

"......" Xu Ke couldn't help but be speechless for a while.

"However, Pei doesn't want to die yet!"

“......”

Xu Ke still didn't speak, but sighed helplessly in his heart, you don't want to die, who wants to die? But your life is no longer in your hands now!

He wanted to ask, what is the relationship between you Pei Caibao and King Wei? But according to Pei Caibao's words, Pei Caibao seems to be deliberately evading.

"Xu Qianhu, can Pei bother you?"

"What?"

"Can you help bring Lord Qiu here?"

"Mr. Qiu?"

"Yes, as long as Lord Qiu comes here, Pei's life will be saved!"

"Why is that?" Xu Ke couldn't help but smile bitterly. He thought to himself, you personally led people to arrest Zhao Yu in the Autumn Leaf Grass Hall that day, do you think, His Royal Highness King Wei is going to take your Pei Caibao's life because of this incident? But even so, why did Mr. Qiu come to save you?

"Don't worry, Xu Qianhu, as long as you invite Lord Qiu here, Pei will offer a clever plan for Lord Qiu! Moreover, this clever plan can not only save Pei's life, but also be beneficial and harmless to Lord Qiu! When the time comes, Pei will definitely remember Xu Qianhu's great kindness for the rest of his life!"

"Alright then!"

......

......

After the two finished answering questions, Xu Ke walked out of the secret room, and said to Nangong silently, don't do it these days, this Pei Caibao still has a little backbone, and treat him first.

So, when it was time to rest at noon, Xu Ke hastily had lunch, then left Tsing Yiwei and went to the household to visit his teacher.

Along the way, Xu Ke was thinking about Mingyue.

It turned out that yesterday evening, after leaving the Xu Mansion, he wanted to go to the other courtyard of the Wei Mansion to pick up Mingyue. But he was halfway down the road, and suddenly he turned back again.

Xu Ke still hadn't thought about where to settle that Mingyue girl?

It stands to reason that for Mingyue, the best place to stay should be his Xu Mansion. Mingyue's greatest wish is nothing more than to live in the Xu Mansion and serve as a maid by Xu Ke's side. It's just that Xu Ke thought about it in his heart, but he couldn't convince himself.

He didn't know in his heart that Mingyue had a heart for him, and it was precisely because of this that he couldn't make up his mind to take Mingyue back to his home......
