Supervisor of Ceremonies.

Day to day life.

Outside, several of Song He's godsons were submitting memorials to the emperor in batches. Inside, Song He was lying on a Hu bed with his eyes closed, smoking a water pipe.

There was still only Xiao Xiangzi serving him.

After a while, there was a sudden noise outside.

"Godfather."

It is Huikang, the third son of Song He.

Little Xiangzi, kneeling on the footstool, glanced at the old ancestor in front of him.

Seeing that the old ancestor's expression did not change at all, I knew that he was willing to see people.

He took the initiative to speak outside: "Come in."

After the sound of footsteps, Huikang came in and saw that his godfather still had his eyes closed. After greeting him, he did not speak immediately, but stood aside obediently.

The room was quiet and no one spoke.

Song He didn't open his eyes until he finished smoking his hookah.

Xiao Xiangzi cleaned up the mess.

Huikang hurried over to help Song He get up.

Song He sat up, took a sip of tea from the cup Hui Kang handed over, and then asked, "What's the matter?"

He had just finished smoking a hookah, and he felt as relaxed as if he had ascended to heaven.

Just leaning on the pillow.

After Huikang and the others finished their tea, they did not put the teacups aside. They still knelt on the footstool, holding the teacups and replied, "The matter that godfather had people investigate before has already had a result."

"The prince's men have already found the Fan family. I think they will be able to bring them back in the next two days."

Song He chuckled: "If this person is really brought back, our Fourth Prince will be completely finished."

Huikang is the most honest and well-behaved among Song He's godsons.

If it were the other sons, they would naturally say a few words to Song He and ask Song He what he thought.

But Huikang just knelt there obediently, waiting for Song He's orders.

"Go stop the man and find a place to hide first so that no one can find you."

This person includes not only Gu Changze, but also Gu Changxuan. Huikang did not ask Song He's intention, but still just promised: "My son will tell someone to do it when he goes out."

There is another matter to return to.

"How will godfather deal with Fan You in the Ministry of Justice? I think the Crown Prince is going to take action against this person. If Fan You is really tricked into revealing something, it will be bad for the Fourth Prince."

Song He said, "Kill him."

He smiled and said, "We can't let our Fourth Prince be defeated so quickly. He is not our Crown Prince. He is loved by our Emperor. Even if he does something wrong, he will only be scolded."

Huikang agreed and asked, "What about Li Chang?"

The Crown Prince has been holding back for so long, isn't he just waiting for the Fourth Prince to do something bigger? But without Fan You as a witness in the Mingyue Tower incident, the Crown Prince's attempt to take advantage of the opportunity to bring down the Fourth Prince is obviously hopeless. I'm afraid Li Chang's affairs will be exposed...

Huikang thought that since his godfather had placed the bargaining chips on the side of the Fourth Prince, he would naturally clear the obstacles for him.

Unexpectedly, my godfather picked up the memorial beside him and said, "Don't worry about it."

Huikang thought of what his godfather had said before: "Giving timely assistance and adding icing on the cake, only when you know the right measure can people remember you."

The Fan family is the icing on the cake.

Now we are just waiting for timely help.

Huikang understood and stopped asking questions. He promised, "Then I will go and give the order right away."

Song He nodded without saying anything.

Huikang carefully put down the teacup and kowtowed to Song He again. When he was about to leave, he thought of what the person downstairs had just said.

"There's something I forgot to tell my godfather."

He told Song He what Xiao Yizi had said at Xihua Gate just now.

"Because the letter was stamped, Xiao Yizi didn't dare to open it rashly. My son doesn't know what's written inside. Do you want to check it out?"

Song He said calmly: "Don't bother with the trivial matters of a few girls."

After hearing what he said, Huikang said nothing more. After agreeing quietly, he bowed his head and walked out.

……

at night.

The overwhelmed Yuan Yu received a note from his subordinate's boss, which contained only one line of words:

"Interrogation of Fan You."

Yuan Yu frowned and asked the person in charge Liu Fan: "Who gave this to you?"

Liu Fan quickly replied, "I don't know either. I was thirsty just now, so I went out to get some tea. When I came back, there was this note on the table."

After he finished speaking, he looked at Yuan Yu who was frowning and asked carefully, "What are you going to do, sir?"

Yuan Yu looked at the note without saying anything.

The paper was the most ordinary paper, and the words were nothing ordinary.

The person who was able to pass the note to him without causing any commotion must be no simple person. I don’t know who this person is, nor do I know why he suddenly sent him a message.

"How about I send someone to find out who was here just now?" Liu Fan suggested.

"Forget it. This person actually dared to put the note on your desk. He must be sure that we can't find him. The most important thing now is the collapse of Mingyue Tower. Let's put the rest aside for now."

After he finished speaking, he asked again: "Who is this Fan You? Do you know?"

Yuan Yu has taken over this matter for some time.

But there are so many people involved in this matter, so it is impossible for him to remember every one of them.

He vaguely remembered that he was a minor official in the Ministry of Works, but Yuan Yu could not remember what he looked like or what he did.

Liu Fan knew this.

When he came here earlier, he had already inquired about Fan You's situation, and he immediately replied: "This Fan You is a minor official in the Ministry of Works. They are the ones who are in charge of the inspection of Mingyue Tower. However, Fan You is of low rank and his words are not taken seriously, so you haven't interrogated him before."

After Liu Fan finished speaking, he asked Yuan Yu, "Does your Excellency want to interrogate Fan You?"

The clues were placed before him.

Regardless of whether this clue is true or false, Yuan Yu cannot help but investigate it.

He nodded and said, "Bring the person here."

Liu Fan immediately bowed and went down to give orders.

The people from the Ministry of Works are now in the Ministry of Justice.

During this period, Yuan Yu stayed directly in the Ministry of Justice in order to conduct interrogations nearby.

But two quarters of an hour later, Liu Fan hurried back and brought the news: "Sir, Fan You is dead!"
