Grandpa is such a bunny

Du Yun is obviously not a pussy, nor a fool, he is not like Tubo, he has a natural "happy at first glance" for this person, but he quickly piled up many questions in his heart, and even retreated suspiciously One step, hiding in the junction of moonlight and darkness, staring at the monk wearing moonlight, "You invited Huang Lao?"

Qian Fan did not show the slightest surprise at his guarded posture, and was as calm as usual, "Master Huang has a clear distinction between public and private affairs and is upright. Lord Du, please rest assured and wait."

Du Yun looked deeply at the person in front of him, "If you are upright, why visit the dungeon late at night. What I say now is not different from what I said in the lobby. What Chan Master Shanyue did tonight is probably unnecessary."

In the dark prison cell, the moonlight shining in from the small window hit the ground directly, just above the treetops, dividing the cell into two, with a dividing line like a silver satin river in the middle.

Qian Fan smiled slightly, "What if you just want to sell Master Du a favor?"

Du Yun followed suit with a smile, looking at the clear boundary on the ground with bright eyes, "Then Du must ask clearly, whose love is Du Yun taking?"

Qian Fan raised his eyes, "King Huaiyuan."

The No.19 son of the former emperor, and also the half-brother of the current emperor.

As expected, Du Yun was hit on the head by these three words, and immediately said sharply, "Shanyue, do you want to rebel!"

Qian Fan looked down at him and shook his head, "Master Nineteen has never thought about treason, Mr. Du is too worried."

"Worried too much?" Du Yun managed to maintain his expression, his feet felt a little weak when he was shocked by the sudden knowledge, and the waves were turbulent beneath the ripples at the bottom of his heart. Every time the waves rolled and threw him ashore, he couldn't help but doubt—— Why did King Huaiyuan, who had been suppressed by the emperor for ten years, reappear? How many people in the court belong to his influence? Does your majesty know that Shanyue belongs to King Huaiyuan? What do they mean by letting him see a corner?

The more Du Yun thought about it, the more frightened he became, especially when the person in front of him was standing beside the Ninth Five-Year Lord, if he wanted to see him, he would force the emperor to make the princes...

"You told me this because—" Du Yun's face was tense and his teeth were clenched, as if he had made up his mind not to let go no matter how intimidated or tempted he was.

Qian Fan chanted the Buddha's name, his eyes filled with the calm Tianhe, mysterious and elusive in the dark night with no wind or waves, he hung his hands in his wide sleeves, looked at Du Yun for a moment, and suddenly felt a deep There was a slit in the eyes, revealing a little smile.

"Master Du, don't need to be nervous. The poor monk is not here to persuade you to betray the master and seek glory. You and I have only one purpose - to let the people live and work in peace and contentment, and the country is peaceful. Whether you believe it or not, the Nineteenth Lord will not commit the crime of plotting the king and stealing the country. thing."

Qian Fan clasped his hands together in front of his chest, and his eyes were still picturesque in the dark, "Zhang Dingcheng formed a clique for personal gain and bribed the public. This matter involves many things and the case is complicated. It won't be clear in a short while, so it's hard for Mr. Du to stay in the prison for a few more days." .”

Du Yun pursed his lips and frowned when he saw that he was about to leave. He reluctantly called him and added a sentence, "I missed one thing, only that person can first charge Zhang Dingcheng with murder. set."

Qian Fan smiled slightly, "That person will speak soon."

Du Yun was stunned for a moment, and thought very unpleasantly, oh, how smart, "Oh, let's do it."

Qian Fan nodded at Du Yun, turned around and disappeared into the prison with Huang Zhang who was waiting at the end of the corridor.

The cell was calm again, a gust of wind came from nowhere, it was wet and cold, Du Yun raised his hand to wipe it, and found that his forehead was covered with cold sweat.

He was sweating and standing against the wall, thinking of beheading Lord Zhu Xiaohou, overturning the Youzhou King Zhao case, and investigating Gao Chenfeng for crimes and meritorious service. In each of these cases, Qian Fan subtly assumed a pivotal position. To persuade him with words, maybe he was already dead.

But the King Huaiyuan behind this person was once bestowed with a treasure by the former emperor, and he was almost in the East Palace. It is impossible for anyone to be flattered or humiliated after being mutated and lost the throne on the eve of holding the seal to supervise the country.

Until the sky gradually became white, Du Yun exhaled and thought, "Damn it, when I go out this time, I will be my official honestly, and I will never have any contact with the people of the imperial capital from now on." Pausing for a while, thinking of the rabbit in the house with a bad head and only looking at faces, he leaned into the corner of the wall to worry because of a headache.

The streets extending in all directions in the imperial capital are quiet, the whole city has not yet woken up, Qian Fan's hand hanging in his robe quietly moved the round and bright red beads, the former minister of Dali Temple who was walking beside him was already old, and his waist began to bend , but his shoulders are extremely straight, as if this person clings to a little belief in his heart, which has remained unchanged for many years, innocent and resolute.

"Thank you."

Huang Zhang raised his eyelids, and the corners of his eyes had wrinkles from the vicissitudes of life, which were honed by the years, "That's not necessary. I have a question to ask, I don't know if I should say it properly."

Qian Fan stopped and let Huang Zhang look at him inquiringly.

"Shanyue, will the Buddha change?"

Qian Fan was stunned, his well-defined pupils seemed to be covered with snowflakes in an instant, and covered the subtle emotions in his eyes. With his fingers in his sleeve, he stuck to the Buddhist bead, and accidentally touched the engraved words "My Buddha is merciful" on the bead. .

He lowered his eyes and saw a little bird fluttering down from the tree, earnestly pecking at the grains scattered on the ground. This thing was probably a picky eater, and only ate the snow-white rice. The upper layer of thin light is very similar to the scene of Buddha's light illuminating all things.

Buddha is everything, everything has special affection, even a bird has a preference, why can't he have it?When he entered Buddhism at the age of seven, he had a predestined relationship with the Buddha, but now he just found the "rice" he likes like this bird. It is Zen Master Shanyue's responsibility to preach and teach Zen, compassion and compassion, but Qianfan is just an ordinary person , have their own emotions.

"The Buddha is at his heart, and never changes because of love and hate in the world." His light-colored pupils looked at the distant sky, "The Buddha will not change, and the heart of Qianfan to the Buddha will not change. Perhaps the only thing that will change is to leave the green hills. The Zen sounds of ancient temples faintly enter the world of mortals, cultivate the mind and worship Buddha."

Hearing what he said, Huang Zhang was shocked. He didn't expect that he deliberately tried to get a plan that he didn't know how long to think about. His throat rolled a few times, and finally he sighed back into his stomach, "Since you have plans , the old man won’t say much.”

Qian Fan nodded and sent him back to the mansion. After walking side by side for a few steps, he suddenly saw a shooting star flashing past in the sky. He was delighted, "Old Huang, the last witness in Gao Chenfeng's case has spoken."

Tubo waited all night, but he didn't wait for Qianfan to come, but he waited for Xie Yuxian who went up the mountain in the dark.

Pavilion Master Xie was dressed in black, his shoulders were covered with early winter hoarfrost, and a pair of bandaged hands were exposed under the sleeves tied tightly by the arm rope.

When they opened the door and saw each other, both of them felt unlucky.

"I didn't expect someone to know the pavilion master so well." Tubo decided to treat Qian Fan well for his sake, welcomed him into the guest room, and politely poured him a cup of overnight tea.

Xie Yuxian was not polite to him, he raised his head and drank, "The thugs and slaves of the whole mountain, and a wolf with a big tail who is full of integrity and useless, even if it is Mr. Tu, I guess that's the way it is."

As soon as they came back, they heard that Du Yun couldn't wait for them, so he rushed out of Wen'an Temple to the imperial city to sue Zhang Dingcheng with the evidence at night, and luckily Xie Yu sent him to the palace safe and sound. Tubo also had a bit of grievance with him in the same industry, and he was not brain-dead, so he immediately thanked him with fists in his hands and thanked him generously.

Tubo, "I heard from Qianfan on the way. He said that Zhang Dingcheng found out that we were going to scare the snake. That's why he secretly sent thugs and slaves to assassinate Du Yun. When you go up the mountain, Zhang Dingcheng will block the mountain gate with your back foot. There is one thing that I can't figure out. The focus of our external investigation has always been Gao Chenfeng's death, and the account books and bills have never been leaked. Where did he get the news? Or, where did we reveal it? "

Xie Yuxian lowered his head and straightened the bandages on his hands, "After Du Yun entered the palace, I just went to investigate the matter. On that day, someone sent two letters to the emperor and Feijian of the Zhang family. The exposing letter, and the other one is that the sender claims that Zhang Dingcheng is involved in corruption, and asks him to go to the palace immediately to expose himself, otherwise he will tell the world."

He twirled the teacup and rubbed the sutra pattern on the side of the cup with his fingertips, "After your accident, people from the Zhang family drove back to the bloody carriage. The half that was torn off in a hurry. On the paper is the location of the wooden box that you found in the courtyard of Zhang's mansion that hid the embezzlement bills and list. Zhang Dingcheng knew that we were already investigating the embezzlement. You thought we were the ones who sent the deterrent letter, so we were furious and wanted to silence Du Yun."

Tubo was thoughtful, "Who deliberately exposed and framed us? What is the reason? By the way, are the guards in the palace so bad that they allow people to nail arrows into the emperor's palace." He grinned and almost thought of it The emperor's frightened expression when he found the arrow, leaving Qian Fan behind, and grabbing Du Yun, deserved to scare you to death.

They are all libertines. They don't have the respect and seriousness that Du Yun and Qian Fan treat the emperor.

"If you can't enter the palace, you can just think about the three thousand beauties in the emperor's backyard." Xie Yu glanced at him leisurely, "The person who shoots the arrow doesn't need to go in at all, as long as he has the skill of piercing Yang with a hundred steps, he can stay outside the palace defense line." You can also send the letter."

Tubo said, "Obviously you miss the imperial concubine." He thought to himself, Qianfan is much better-looking than them, "If you say that, there might be someone in Jianghu who has such outstanding archery skills—Jianghu Chang Zongming, head of Chuanyang Villa, who is known as "Nu Jian Li Xian."

Xie Yuxian pursed his lips, "This is the person I'm looking for." He took out the fan from his pocket, his eyes were piercing under his sword eyebrows, "I'm afraid you don't know, this person's word is 'Qi'."

Tu Bo's pupils suddenly shrank, "Zhang Qi's servant, Zhang Qi!"

Xie Yuxian turned his head to look at the night outside the window, and smiled slightly, "I want to catch fast, the fish will be caught in the net soon, are you interested in going to see it together later?"

Dawn, the sky is not yet bright.

The huge and solemn city wall in the distance stands under the dim skylight, and a dim light shines from the octagonal red attic.

The mourning flags hanging in front of the gate of Zhang's mansion fluttered like ghosts, and occasionally landed on the cold armor of the guards guarding the gate of the mansion.On the day Zhang Dingcheng and Du Yun entered the palace, the emperor ordered the closure of Zhang's mansion and all the houses of the officials involved, and sent the forbidden army to guard them strictly.

"If you don't leave, you will be implicated."

Zhang Yinxiang stood by the window, letting the wind blow her hair away. Hearing the sound, she remained silent, staring blankly at the shadows in the lake not far away—the dry acacia plant facing the window. The tree is withered and its branches and leaves are falling off.

Zhang Qi strode forward and grabbed her arm, "Gao Chenfeng's account book is clearly written, I'm afraid it will be difficult for the master to clean himself up this time. Corruption and bribery will punish the nine clans, miss, look at the door If you don’t leave, it’s too late for the guards in front of you!”

Zhang Yinxiang frowned, looked up at the man who could almost cover her, his eyes were cold, "How do you know about Chen Feng's bill?"

Probably couldn't stand her look like this, Zhang Qi's eyes darkened, he took a step forward, forcing Zhang Yinxiang's back against the window, he raised his hand to shake off the cloak, and forcibly wrapped the person inside, saying in a deep voice Say, "How do I know?" Breaking her chin and smiling, "I've been watching you and him every day and night."

Thinking of the daily life with a pair of eyes staring at her in the dark, Zhang Yinxiang felt a chill all over his body instantly, raised his hand and beat his chest angrily, "That day...you did it on purpose!"

Zhang Qi reached into the cloak with one hand, opened her shoulder straps, greedily caressed the white and smooth shoulders hidden under the clothes, "How can I bear to see you get yourself drunk at night, for a man who betrayed you."

Staying alone in the empty boudoir, with drunkenness and anger in her heart, she thought it was the case, but unexpectedly, the old love of the person next to her pillow was unforgettable, and she sat alone and wept, until someone wiped her tears with clothes and hugged her on the dragon and phoenix couch. After dreaming of Huang Liang's big dream, when I woke up again, I realized that I had lost my body to others, and I regretted it.

"You..." Zhang Yinxiang looked at him sullenly.

"Shh, don't be angry, I will treat you well, now you are the only one I can rely on." Zhang Qi enjoyed the way she was forced to have no one to rely on but himself in a desperate situation. He was crazy infatuated with this woman, because he was too excited, The voice revealed an unbearable hoarseness, "Gao Chenfeng doesn't love you, your father is dying too, heh, now you only have me, I will take you and our children and leave here forever!"

After finishing talking, he bent down and hugged him forcefully, Zhang Yinxiang's beautiful eyes widened, before he had time to struggle, he pressed the Ya acupoint.

With a proud look in Zhang Qi's eyes, he extinguished the candles in the room, walked to the door and opened the door.

The moment the door opened, the candle behind him that was emitting a wisp of white smoke lit up again with a puff, and the smoky yellow halo illuminated the young man who had been standing by the door for an unknown amount of time, engulfing his handsome facial features like a blur. A rich painting.

Tubo folded his arms, leaned lazily against the door, turned his head and smiled, "Where is Master Chang going?"

Zhang Qi quickly turned around and rushed towards the window, startled by Xie Yuxian who was suddenly hanging by the window, took a step back, leaned his back against the wall, pulled out the knife in his bag and laid it across his chest, "You are also the emperor's men!" ?”

Xie Yuxian flipped his sleeves, and something flew out, rushed into the sky, and sent out a small white stream across the sky, and then he jumped into the window, "No, I'm just here to join in the fun."

Tubo whistled to express his opinion on Pavilion Master Xie's appearance just now, walked into the room, pulled a chair and sat down.

His injury has not yet healed, and his chest hurts when he is lucky, so he naturally chooses the most comfortable way.

"Master Chang, are you still used to using knives? What about your arrows? Three years ago, you accidentally killed the leader of the Shadao Gang, and you were wanted by the rivers and lakes. Unexpectedly, you hid in someone else's house and became a servant." Tubo leaned back. Leaning on the back, stretching the slender legs, bending the elbows to support the armrest of the chair, resting the fingers on the chin, lazily raising the head, a light shot out from under the thin eyelids.

Seeing that his identity was exposed, Zhang Qi, no, Chang Zongming moved his wrist invisibly, and the candlelight rotated with the back of the knife, refracting a slender light on his face, "It's not your turn to intervene in this matter."

Tubo pursed his lips and smiled, "Indeed, this matter has nothing to do with me." Looking at Zhang Yinxiang behind him who was showing guarded and disgusted eyes, Tubo reached out and pressed his heart, pretending to be sad like a dog, "Ma'am, let you It's not I who's family is ruined, it's the person in front of you, if he hadn't sent a letter of denunciation to the palace, perhaps His Majesty would not have immediately detained your father as soon as he received Lord Du's memorial."

His words fell slowly, Zhang Yinxiang's eyes widened, and he looked at Chang Zongming in shock, who stared at Tubo with gritted teeth, the knife in his hand could hardly hold back, "Shut up!"

Tu Bai pointed at Chang Zongming with his chin, and fixed his eyes on Zhang Yinxiang, "Your father doesn't like Gao Chenfeng, and Zhang Qi either."

Zhang Yinxiang was hit on the dumb point, unable to speak, her fingers clenched her water-colored sleeves, her slender knuckles turned blue and white due to the force, she stared at Tubo, her expression was as cold as ice.

"Zhang Qi is a dispensable person, while Gao Chenfeng can only follow like a dog in his hands, so the tall man has other thoughts, secretly sharpened his teeth for himself, looking forward to it, hoping that one day Day can be a deterrent, or pounce on your father and bite your father back."

All the blood faded from Zhang Yinxiang's usual cold and arrogant cheeks, and he bit his lower lip tightly. Seeing her soft appearance, Tu Bai committed the common problem of men again, feeling sorry for the fragrance, but fortunately, his ostentatious little flower has already grown grass , so that brother Tu did not continue to wave.

"However, before his teeth were sharpened, your father discovered him. He acted first and cut off all his escape routes."

Zhang Yinxiang tightly strangled Chang Zongming's arm, and stared at Tubo with almost stern eyes. Her lips could no longer be bitten, and they opened tremblingly, without making any sound.

Tu Bai blinked, it was really painful, on the one hand he was hurt, on the other hand he felt that it was cruel to force a girl, he hesitated affectionately, raised his head and pulled Xie Yuxian's sleeve, "Hey , or you come, I think you are more vicious."

Pavilion Master Xie was speechless, lowered his head, pointed his eyes to the door, and then pressed the sword on his shoulder, "Quickly ask, don't talk nonsense."

Tubo snorted, turned his head, and said seriously, "Ma'am, I didn't force you, but he. You saw that I was also forced."

Xie Yuxian, "..."

You have a hairy relationship with him, so why don't you just say no? !

Tu Bai pursed his lips and smiled, and when Chang Zongming relaxed his guard a little while watching the two joking, he suddenly raised his hand and shot at Zhang Yinxiang, a stone rolled to the ground, and the dumb acupoint on her body had been knocked open.

Chang Zongming was taken aback, and hurriedly raised his hand again, only to see Zhang Yinxiang clutching his chest, glaring at him coldly, then turned his head and said in a hoarse voice, "You are wrong, it was Gao Chenfeng who betrayed me first, I hate him, That’s why people keep him outside forever.”

Tubo leaned forward, lowered his eyes, hesitated for a moment, shook his head, and sighed, "I understand that you defend your father so much, but that's not how he treats you."

He stood up and walked to the window sill facing Huxintan, "Master Du wrote in the obituary sent to the imperial capital that Gao Chenfeng died of bruises all over his body and blood, but I'm afraid you don't know, the blood on his body There are more than 730 wounds, this number is left on it by your father, do you know what it means?"

Zhang Yinxiang stared at him blankly.

Tubo tapped his fingers on the table lightly, pretending to be deep for a while, then slowly raised his head and lowered his voice, "That was the time when Gao Chenfeng met you after he came to the imperial capital. Do you still remember who we suspected at the beginning? It is you, ma'am, your father is misleading us to point the sword at you!"

He suddenly stretched out his hand and raised two fingers, piercing Zhang Yinxiang's eyes like a sword.

Zhang Yinxiang was terrified, "No, my father never thought about it..."

Xie Yuxian, who had listened to Du Yun's analysis of the case, raised his eyebrows, watching Tubo's nonsense, vaguely confused Zhang Yinxiang's suspicion that Zhang Dingcheng intended to lead Qin Chuxin to him, he suddenly I think it is also a skill to open your eyes and tell nonsense.

"No, you are talking nonsense, my dad can't—"

Tubo pushed open the window, and the breeze extinguished the candles in the house. The sky in the morning was foggy, and the surroundings were dim blue. He looked around at the water surface of the center of the lake with birds flying by, spreading out in a circle. Another circle of ripples, he suddenly said, "Standing here, you can see the dead acacia tree."

Turning around, seeing Zhang Yinxiang's confused eyes over his shoulders falling on the small tree with hatred and envy, Tubo's voice was low, like a whisper, and like the wind blowing over a rock, with a little bewilderment "Xiangxiang, you only see him standing here and thinking about Qin Chuxin, but you have never stood by a tree and looked here. From there, you can just see you in the attic every morning." Dressing in front of the bronze mirror, he misses Qin Chuxin and loves you deeply."

Zhang Yinxiang opened his eyes the widest, the corners of his eyes were red, tears filled his eyes in an instant, and he muttered frantically, "No, no, he's not..."

Tu Bai frowned, and said sharply, "But until now, you are still protecting the murderer who killed him and framed you!"

Zhang Yinxiang's shoulders trembled, and tears rolled down her eyes. After knowing Gao Chenfeng's death, she couldn't hold back the tears for the first time. She lowered her proud head. This glamorous and cold disguise was torn into pieces, and every piece of dross that was broken left her covered with bruises, and she could no longer maintain her own skin.Finally, Zhang Yinxiang covered his face and cried bitterly.

"He is dead, what else can I do, even if I know my father killed him, what can I do..."

Chang Zongming gave Tubo a hateful look, and hugged Zhang Yinxiang who was crying helplessly.

It was not easy to get her words, Tubo finally breathed a sigh of relief, looked towards the direction of the door, and said weakly, "Next time you come in, come in by yourself, don't let me do this kind of thing again."

He has always coaxed the girl, and never frightened people until the pear blossoms rained down.

The door of the quiet room was pushed open from the outside, and Qian Fan walked in at the same time as Mr. Huang Zhang, the former Minister of Dali Temple.

"Mrs. Gao, you are the most important witness. Since you have admitted that Master Zhang is the murderer of the deceased, please follow us into Dali Temple," Huang Zhang said.
