Chapter 171: A Long Conversation in Prison

[The seventy-first year of the Great Qiankang Yuan, April 19, Youshi, Tsing Yi Wei Zhao Prison, Jiazi No. 12 Cell]

After Nangong returned from the Wei Palace, seeing that it was time to be on duty, he didn't stop, and came to the edict again to visit Xu Ke.

He walked into the No. 12 cell of Jiazi, and saw that Xu Ke was accompanied by Mingyue, and couldn't help but be a little stunned, and said in his heart, I couldn't imagine that this Mingyue girl was still such a person who valued love and righteousness, my brother Xu Kexian had already fallen to such a point, and she was still willing to stay in the edict prison to serve!

However, Nangong Buyu had a few important words today that he wanted to tell Xu Ke, but he really didn't want outsiders to be present, at that moment, he covered his mouth and coughed twice, signaling Mingyue to leave first.

However, Xu Ke saw Nangong silent, but he had an indifferent look, he saw that Nangong was silent and was about to leave Mingyue as soon as he entered the door, and his heart was even more unhappy, so he asked:

"Lord Nangong, your daughter's body, did you come to this edict to interrogate Xu?"

"What are you talking about?!"

Nangong was silent and remembered that he had promised Xu Ke that he would summon Hu Yiyi to the Xu Mansion for him and let all the people in the Xu Mansion move out. It's just that at that time, as the leader of the demon hunt, how could he leak the emperor's secret decree? However, after all, he was entrusted by Xu Ke, and when he saw Xu Ke's cold face at this time, he had to smile and apologize to Xu Ke:

"Brother Xian, on that day, Brother Fool had no choice but to do it!"

Xu Kebei turned his head and said indifferently:

"Lord Nangong, now you are a high-ranking official of the third grade, Xu is just a prisoner, Xu can't afford to be an adult!"

Mingyue hurriedly moved a wooden chair, asked Nangong to sit down silently, brewed a cup of hot tea for Nangong, and then bowed to Nangong, then hurriedly walked out of the prison door and went back to the No. 11 cell next to him.

Nangong was silent, seeing that Xu Ke had never had a good face for himself, he couldn't help but feel very embarrassed in his heart. He couldn't sit or stand, so he had to get up and walk around the cell a few times. He couldn't help but be amazed when he saw that in this cell No. 12, whether it was the corner or the floor, the tables, chairs or the wooden bed, they had all been cleaned up neatly and cleanly. Needless to say, you can also think that all this must be the top brand of Cuiyun Tower in the past, the work of the bright moon.

On that day, the foolish brother had just received a secret decree from the emperor, asking the foolish brother to take people to the virtuous brother's mansion to arrest people. The virtuous brother asked me to go to the Xu Mansion to report the news, so that they could all escape...... If the foolish brother obeys the virtuous brother and lets all the virtuous brother's family members flee first, wouldn't it be a crime of 'resisting the decree and deceiving the king'...... This message from the virtuous brother, the foolish brother really can't bring it to ......," Nangong said silently and earnestly.

"......" Xu Ke held a book in his hand, sat silently with his back to Nangong, just read the book by himself, and still didn't say anything.

Nangong was silent, so he had to bite the bullet, and then explained to Xu Ke:

"Brother Virtuous! Brother Fool was ordered to handle the case, and it was also a last resort! Brother Fool also knew in his heart that the two 'Fairy Hu' and 'Brother Shuxian' in your mansion were two great demons in the world, but they were both good people. It's just that the foolish brother has the emperor's order, how dare he not obey? We eat public dinner, and we can't help ourselves, and we can't help ourselves!"

......

Nangong was silent and chattered in front of Xu Ke for a long time, when he saw that Xu Ke was unmoved, his heart was anxious, and he immediately bowed his head and bowed his head, and was about to kneel down towards Xu Ke, and said:

"If the virtuous brother is still angry, the foolish brother will kneel down for you......!

"I can't help it!"

Xu Ke hurriedly turned around, supported Nangong silently, and said:

"Brother Nangong, you are ordered to do an errand, that is also a matter of no way! How can the little brother blame you!"

"Virtuous brother!"

......

The two immediately patted each other's shoulders and hugged each other tightly, and this misunderstanding between the brothers finally released their previous suspicions.

The two sat down immediately, and Xu Ke asked about the details of the day on April 16, when Nangong silently led people to Xu's mansion to arrest people, and Nangong did not hide it at all, so he told Xu Ke everything one by one.

When Xu Ke heard that at the critical moment, he flew to the back garden of Xu's mansion to help Hu Yiyi, and it was really Mao Jiaojiao and Lu Huoli, he was both surprised and ashamed in his heart.

He was surprised that in addition to Mao Jiaojiao, there was also a well-known "Flowing Frost Sword Immortal" Lu Huoli who came to Xu Mansion to rescue Hu Yiyi. This "Flowing Frost Sword Immortal", he has never seen it, and he has rarely heard of his name, but he heard Nangong describe it silently, his martial arts are outstanding, his swordsmanship is superb, and his kung fu is not under Cheng Wanli!

And what made him deeply ashamed was that when Hu Yiyi, Shu Hetian and others were in danger, it was the cat demon in the capital who talked about the tiger's color change who could suddenly help. For the notorious "and alloy fairy" Mao Jiaojiao, Xu Ke's mood couldn't help but become more and more complicated, he really didn't know, if he saw Mao Jiaojiao next time, whether he would step forward to capture it, or come forward to say thank you!

Xu Ke listened to Nangong silently, and when they were fighting with Hu Yiyi and others, they suddenly appeared in the Xu Mansion to help Hu Yiyi, in addition to Mao Jiaojiao and Lu Huoli, there was also a person from the Daomen. The man was a young woman, dressed in white, and she was not only very good at standing on the wall, but also had good skills, and was able to fly swords through the air. At that time, the woman not only forced Luan Yi Si Qianhu Zhu Leyun all the way to the corner, but also snatched a magic weapon from Yuan Tiangang, the chief of Qin Tianjian.

Xu Ke thought about it for a while, and guessed that the person who made the imperial envoy flying the sword must be Yiqing. He couldn't help but be full of gratitude to Yiqing, but when he thought about it, he wondered in his heart, how could Yiqing know that my Xu Mansion would be surrounded and suppressed by officers and soldiers? Yes, Yiqing was familiar with only King Zhao in the capital, who else was there besides my senior brother's summons?

Thinking about it like this, Xu Ke naturally had an extra admiration for Li Yi, the king of Zhao......

Nangong Bu also told the story of Lu Huoli at that time when he used the "Jiangtian One Color" escape trick, and Hu Yiyi and others took advantage of the white mist to flee. Xu Ke thought about it for a while, and vaguely guessed the secret reason. With Cheng Wanli's ability as "the No. 1 master in the capital," how could he make Lu Huo leave them calmly? Perhaps, General Cheng had already been entrusted by King Zhao.

It seems that if it weren't for the secret help of my senior brother, how could Sister Hu, Brother Shuxian, Incompetent Second Brother, and Sister Xiaobei in my Xu Mansion escape smoothly?

......

After Nangong said nothing about his experience of catching demons in Xufu, he suddenly changed his words and talked about the "danger of life" under Xu Ke's eyes.

"Brother Xian, do you know that someone wants to take your life?"

"Brother Nangong, what did you say, but that Yang Wenyuan?" 315 Chinese Network

"It's not him!" Nangong shook his head silently, and when he thought of Yang Wenyuan's incident, he couldn't help but feel a burst of anger in his heart, so he said:

"Yang Wenyuan, this guy, dare to take advantage of my absence in Weili, in a vain attempt to secretly attack the virtuous brother! Rest assured, the foolish brother has written down this account for you, and he will definitely find it from this guy's body next time!"

On the 16th day of April, after Nangong returned from Xu's mansion without success, Ding Chunqiu had already reported Yang Wenyuan to Yang Wenyuan for leading people to break into the edict prison in a vain attempt to blind Xu Ke's eyes. Nangong was very angry at that time, but after he heard that the last person to rescue Xu Ke was the governor Shen Huan, he was puzzled in his heart, and in the past few days, he has been constantly doing trivial things and all kinds of affairs, and he has not been able to find time to find Yang Wenyuan to hold Yang Wenyuan accountable.

"It's not Yang Wenyuan, then who else?" Xu Ke wondered. He thought to himself, "How can I do it", I have to work for so many people, and I am always concerned about my life?

"What Brother Xian can't guess, the person who wants to take your life is the current Eighth Prince, Li Xi, King of Jin!"

"Jin King Li Xi?" Xu Ke couldn't help but be surprised and angry: "I have no grievances with him, why did he first frame me for fornicating with demons, and then he wanted to take my life?

"Brother Xian didn't offend him, and the King of Jin wanted to take your life, not because he had an enmity with you......"

"Is it because of His Royal Highness the King of Wei?"

Nangong nodded silently.

"This ......" Xu Ke felt unbelievable in his heart, and for a while, he couldn't help but have nothing to say.

"Brother Xian, Brother Fool knows, you don't like to participate in the party struggle between princes, however, you and I are in the court, and we can't help ourselves. Now, even though you and I have the heart to avoid the strife and conflict between those princes, those two princes still found you and me!"

"Ahem......" Xu Ke couldn't help but sigh.

"Brother Xian, these days, you have to pay extra attention to your three meals a day, as well as drinking water and water, you need to pay attention!" Nangong said silently and earnestly.

Xu Ke asked, "What...... King Jin still wants to send someone to poison him?"

"King Jin got a 'Sleeping Flower Pill' from a Jianghu Warlock. It is said that this poison pill is colorless, tasteless, and extremely poisonous, and with only a little bit of it in its mouth, it will immediately die silently, and after the fact, it will not be able to find the slightest cause of death!"

"There is such a powerful poison pill, this King of Jin, for my business, I bothered!" Xu Ke couldn't help but smile at this time.

"Brother Xian, it's all this time, you still have the heart to laugh!" Nangong said hurriedly.

"Let him go! I, Xu Ke, am now in the Imperial Prison, and my fame is gone, and it is already a rotten life, and the King of Jin is so worried about my life, even if I take it!"

"Brother Xian, you must not give up on yourself like this! Brother Fool thinks that it won't be long before Brother Xian will get out of prison and restore your freedom......"

Next, Nangong was silent and said a lot of words of comfort and encouragement, Xu Ke couldn't bear to disobey Nangong's kindness, so he nodded, saying that he already knew about King Jin's vicious schemes, and in the future, he would definitely pay special attention to his usual diet and daily life, and not give King Jin's inside line any chance to start......

Speaking of the "Jin King's inner line", Nangong attached to Xu Ke's ear without saying a word, and reminded Xu Ke in a whisper:

"Brother Xian, I won't tell you anything, King Jin is in the inner line of my Tsing Yi Wei, and it is very likely that he is the Governor Shen Huan!"

"Is it him?!" Xu Ke couldn't help but widen his eyes, although he had never had a good impression of Shen Huan, he couldn't help but be surprised to hear that this person had thrown himself into the arms of King Jin.

"It's probably him!" Nangong was silent and finally admonished again: "Although the foolish brother has not found any evidence, based on the current situation, he can determine that it is this person......!" Brother Xian, you have been in prison these days, but you must be careful and cherished! Brother Fool is entangled in official duties, and cannot always be by your side, and your daily food and water ......."

"Okay, okay! Brother Nangong, the junior brother knows!" Seeing that Nangong was silent and wanted to continue talking, Xu Ke immediately interrupted him and said:

"It's not early, it's almost time, Brother Nangong, Sister Ling is still waiting for you to go back at home, right?"

"Yes, yes, yes, Wuhua is still waiting for me to go back and have dinner with her, it's already time, ahem! Time is really rushing......

Nangong was silent, then got up to say goodbye to Xu Ke, and he said a few words of earnest advice, until Xu Ke sent him outside the prison door, Nangong was still admonishing:

"Brother Xian, you can cherish your life in the edict prison and protect yourself! After a while, after you are released from prison, Brother Fool will invite you to come to my Nangong Mansion for a trip and try the craftsmanship of Wuhua!"

"Brother Xian, speaking of which, you have been a few days and have not been able to taste the craft of flowerlessness, have you?"

"Okay, good, little brother knows, thank you Brother Nangong for your kindness!"

As soon as Nangong Wuhua was mentioned, Xu Ke hurriedly bowed and saluted, and hurriedly said goodbye to Nangong without saying goodbye.

......

......

Nangong left the edict without saying a word, and after leaving Tsing Yi Wei, he turned to the north, and his own Nangong Mansion was located in Yongxing Fang, which was only a moment away from Tsing Yi Wei.

He couldn't help but feel very relieved in his heart, just because between him and Xu Ke, after a long conversation, they were finally able to release their previous suspicions. Although, he was in the edict prison, unknowingly, he talked with Xu Ke for an hour.

Nangong walked out of the gate of Tsing Yi Wei without saying a word, and it was already the beginning of the year. In Chang'an City, the big drum in the Daming Palace began to beat, and the drum tower of the imperial city came from the dense drum sound in sequence, until the whole Chang'an City was full of drums, and this dense drum also announced that the curfew had begun, and ordinary people were not allowed to leave the door of their respective residences at this time, and walked on the street without authorization.

Nangong Buyu has his own "gold-inlaid tiger card", so naturally he doesn't have to worry about violating the curfew and being arrested and imprisoned by the forbidden army. However, he still has a worry at the moment, it is really that he talked too much with Xu Ke today, and his sister at home must have been anxious. So, Nangong didn't say anything and quickened his pace, picked up the light work under his feet, and hurriedly ran towards his mansion.

He ran all the way, thinking only about the Wuhua sister at home, and a table of good dishes cooked by Nangong Wuhua himself, where would he have thought that more than ten steps away from him, at the corner of the cornices on the roof, there was a red and white little flower cat, which was running all the way with him......
