With the return of the imperial guards who went out to suppress the rebellion in the city and the official army of Youzhou City, the thieves who invaded the Dudu's Mansion were quickly wiped out under the attack of them and the guards led by Li Yuanfang.

It was the middle of the night, and in the dark room, Zhou You sat silently at the table, and there was a sword on the table next to it, it was Hu Jinghui's Youlan sword, it was after Hu Jinghui found out that Li Qingxia had seduced him. , disheartened, ready to hide his name, and gave it to him when he left.

Just a quarter of an hour ago, after the rebellion in the Governor's Mansion was put down, Zhou You knew that putting Li Qingxia to death was definitely not what Di Renjie wanted to do, so he took the initiative to take over the matter, and he personally sent Li Qingxia on the road.

Phew.. Suddenly there was a sound of wind, a figure appeared in the room, and an invisible evil spirit permeated the air, causing Zhou You to raise his brows lightly. He looked at the strong figure in the dark and said, "Are you here?"

"Anyway, you too... You actually killed her yourself! Are you just using her?" Hu Jinghui's deep voice was full of murderous intent and anger.

"What? You came to kill me?" Zhou You looked at him noncommittally and said, "Don't forget, she is just using you!"

"But what can she do to you? Why did you kill her?" Hu Jinghui asked holding back his anger.

"Hehe..." Zhou You suddenly smiled, and then asked, "Brother Hu, do you really think I'm so cruel? Do you really think she's dead?"

"You...what did you say?" Hu Jinghui was stunned for a moment, and stared at Zhou You in disbelief: "She's not dead? Impossible, I've already seen her body, she obviously committed suicide by taking poison, why? meeting.."

Zhou You said: "It's all about feigning death! I gave her the medicine of feigning death. This medicine can make her fall into a coma for ten days, and she will wake up after ten days. You came at the right time, and I will ask you to find a way to secretly kill her." Take it away. Li Qingxia is already dead, I hope that she, who has experienced life and death once, can regain her life!"

"Is she really not dead?" Hu Jinghui couldn't help asking again, and Zhou You, who nodded slightly, picked up the Orchid Sword and walked forward, handing it to Hu Jinghui.

But Hu Jinghui didn't go to pick up the Youlan sword: "I misunderstood you! I won't need this sword in the future, so you can keep it!"

"I hope I didn't do anything wrong! If she still can't let go of her ambition and delusions after waking up..." Zhou You withdrew his hand and sighed softly.

Before Zhou You finished speaking, Hu Jinghui continued to say: "Don't worry, if she still can't come to her senses and is still determined to go her own way, then I will personally kill her."

"Brother Hu, after this farewell, I wonder if there will be a chance to meet again, take care!" Zhou You cupped his hands to Hu Jinghui.

Hu Jinghui, who silently nodded to Zhou You and bowed his hand to return the salute, turned and left directly, and went out through the window, his figure quickly disappeared into the night.

The matter in Youzhou was over, and Zhou You soon left Youzhou for Chang'an with Di Renjie and Li Yuanfang.

The reason why Zhou You went to Chang'an with them was because Di Renjie praised Zhou You a lot in his memorial to Wu Zetian, saying that although he was born as a knight-errant, he was brave and resourceful, and he made many achievements in solving cases. Therefore, Wu Zetian made an exception and bestowed Zhou Youqianniu with an official body.

You must know that Qianniu Beishen is a military officer of the sixth rank, or a senior military officer of Qianniuwei led by the imperial guard, and is only slightly inferior to Li Yuanfang's fifth-rank inspection school Yingyangwei Zhonglang, who was awarded this time.

After all, even if one was born as a Jinshi in the imperial examination, the officials who were appointed outside the country often only started as Qipin county magistrates.As soon as Zhou You's identity as a thousand-ox-prepared body is revealed, even if he is the governor of the state, he has to be polite. After all, he is the emperor's trusted military officer!

But it's just an official position, and has no specific duties. Zhou You doesn't need to be a guard in the palace, but Wu Zetian arranges to stay by Di Renjie's side like Li Yuanfang, and is still Di Renjie's guard.

When Zhou You and the others came back, they borrowed the soldiers of the Great Zhou to return to the country to quell the rebellion and wiped out Modu's Ji Li Khan.

After everything was settled, there was another bloodbath in Di's residence. Di Renjie also burned the list that Wu Zetian wanted to know from Liu Jin in front of Zhou You and Li Yuanfang.

"My lord, there is still something unclear about the humble position," Li Yuanfang couldn't help but said, and Di Renjie also asked repeatedly: "What's the matter?"

"As the nobleman of the royal family, Princess Yiyang is subject to great restrictions on her behavior. How could she organize such a huge rebel army?" Li Yuanfang continued.

Di Renjie nodded slightly: "I have thought about this question more than once, but now all of this has become a permanent mystery with the death of the princess, a permanent mystery!"

"My lord! Actually, before Princess Yiyang died, she told me about an organization called 'Snake Spirit'. She didn't elaborate, but there seems to be a snake spirit behind the incident in Youzhou this time, and she also said that the tiger Jing Hui is the sword spirit, one of the six snake heads of the snake spirit," Zhou You said slightly hesitantly.

"What? Snake spirit?" Di Renjie's face changed slightly when he heard that, and Li Yuanfang beside him couldn't help being a little surprised: "Six snake heads? Hu Jinghui is actually only one of the six snake heads. How many masters must there be for this snake spirit? What a strength it must be!"

Zhou You shook his head and said, "That's all I know, Princess Yiyang doesn't seem to want to say more. But I think, this snake spirit will not be so easy to be silent in the future. Maybe in the near future In the future, we will have to face this snake spirit organization!"

"What kind of organization is Snake Spirit? It hides so deeply!" Di Renjie, who nodded slightly, couldn't help muttering to himself.

"Cough...my lord, I have one more thing that I need to tell my lord," Zhou You said after coughing slightly in embarrassment.

Di Renjie, who came back to his senses, couldn't help laughing: "What else is there? To be honest! You are also an official now, so you don't have to be so formal."

Zhou You didn't say it directly, but reached out and took out a token from his pocket and handed it to Di Renjie.

After receiving the token, Di Renjie glanced at him, but his face suddenly changed and he looked at Zhou You in surprise: "Are you an inner guard?"

"I'm also baffled. When I went to get the official service seal today, I was just stuffed with a token, so I became an inner guard in such a daze. I..." Zhou You also felt a little helpless.

Hearing this, Di Renjie calmed down and said, "So that's how it is! It seems that His Majesty really values ​​you! You are a knight-errant and inner guard of plum blossoms. Your Majesty has given full play to his talents."

"My lord, I have suddenly become an inner guard, can you rest assured that I will be by your side?" Zhou You couldn't help asking.

Upon hearing Zhou You's words, Di Renjie smiled and said: "You have already told me your identity, do you think I dare to drive you away?"

"Zhou You, since you have become an inner guard, you should know the rules of the inner guard. In the future, don't tell anyone else about your identity as an inner guard," Di Renjie immediately said seriously.

Zhou You also nodded and said: "I know, my lord, this is in front of you, so I can't hide it from you."
