Back in the Prince's Mansion, he first went to pay his respects to Princess Liyang and Prince Jiang Xiong, then went to the Mu family to discuss Jiang Luoqin's marriage, and was dragged by the Mu family to ask about Jiang Luobai's adoptive son—this matter In fact, the matter was already spread at the border, and Jiang Luoyu was involved in it. Jiang Luoyu knew at the time that this matter must not be kept secret, so it is better to spread the word openly, regardless of the ministers and officials in the court. How did the people discuss this matter? After Jiang Luobai's identity became clear, everyone had doubts about his successor to the Xiaoyao throne.

benefit.

Princess Liyang and Jiang Xiong didn't show any attitudes after he entered the mansion, but let Mu Shi turn a corner and ask him, so they knew that they still cared about this matter, and even started to care about whether he fell in love with his sweetheart. The sweetheart is still a man, so he wants to turn his concubine brother into a legitimate son so that he can inherit the throne.

When Jiang Luoyu heard Mu Shi's probing, she went around a few times with her face unchanged, and her resolute attitude made Mu Shi understand that there was no room for change in this matter, and she didn't want Mu Shi to find out the real reason. He took Zhuiyue Zhuiyun and others back to his own Biboyuan, and just sat on the couch and ate the fruit he had peeled with a silver stick, and after half a cup of tea, Zhuyue whispered outside the window.

"My lord, Sleeping Star is back."

Hearing this, the eyes of the person sitting in front of the lamp dimmed, and he put the book in his hand: "Let him in."

Before the words were finished, a light blue figure quickly entered the door, and lowered his body to report: "My lord, news came from the Hanjiang Pavilion. During the early court today, the eighth prince participated in the right minister's corruption and bribery, and protected his disciples for personal gain. The account book and the confessions of several local officials showed that the evidence was unmistakable. After reading it, the emperor was furious and ordered that the right prime minister be put on death row. All males and sons over 12 years old in the Ning Mansion will be put in prison, and the rest of the children will be imprisoned. They are under house arrest in the courtyard, and all the remaining maids and servants have been dismissed."

Jiang Luoyu hooked the corners of his lips, and used the silver stick in his hand to pierce another piece of fruit. His jade-like eyes gradually became deep in the light, making the people standing in front of him dare not look up.

"He took the bottom of the pot without making a show, and took away the biggest bargaining chip of the third prince. Although I don't know whether it was a greeting with the emperor first, or his own means, the eighth prince, who has been trying his best for many years, made a move. It's really shocking." Impressed."

"My son, do you want to continue monitoring?"

"No need." The slender finger slowly pulled out the silver stick held by the fingertips, the black hair hung down to his shoulders, covering his expression and eyes at the moment, only faint words echoed in the small room, "Since the eighth prince has made a move, there is absolutely no reason to give up halfway."

Sleeping Star standing in front of him hung his head and did not respond, but waited for his order with bated breath.

"However... I really want to see the excitement." After a while, Jiang Luoyu finally raised his head again, his jade-like eyes were under the light, like a black pearl shining in the deep sea, " Tomorrow morning, let the people in Hanjiang Pavilion get ready, and you go with me."

Sleeping Star lowered his body and said: "Your subordinates obey."

After the people in front of him retreated silently, the man in the outer shirt sat in the spot and pondered for a moment, then lowered himself down and got off the arhat couch, looking out of the half-open window frame, the moon as bright as a jade plate, When he lowered his eyes again, he stared fixedly at his slender fingers, and was silently stunned.

After standing for a while, he slowly turned around and walked to the table. He was just about to turn off the light and go to rest on the couch, but his eyes inadvertently saw that he had just put down the book with a yellowed cover that he had been flipping through before Sleeping Star came in. , rubbing the spine of the book a few times with his fingertips, and gently opened the book again, revealing a few small characters written with a vermilion pen by the golden hook and silver strokes.

The strokes of that character and the way of using the brush are extremely familiar, and it can't help but make people's hearts flutter.

After staring at the small vermilion characters for a long time, Jiang Luoyu finally lowered his head slowly, and pressed his icy cheeks against the yellowed pages of the book, as if a flash of light flashed in front of his eyes hidden behind the darkness, the man was so clear that he could see the bottom of the smoke Xun's slap-like eyes couldn't help but raise the corners of his lips silently.

That person has only been away for a short period of time, but he has already begun to think about others. If that person finds out about this, it will definitely make him proud... But it's not a big deal, let's not mention that person at this moment Da Jin was thousands of miles away, as long as he didn't say anything, that person would never know.

After a while, in Jiang Luoyu's bedroom in Biboyuan, the dim light was finally extinguished, and the room fell into silence, except for Jiang Luoyu who was lying on the bed on his side and breathing steadily, and Jiang Luoyu who was placed on the bed. Beside the pillow, the yellowed pages of the book were lifted by the breeze outside the window, making a small sound.

In the early morning of the second day, before the sun leaped out of the dark blue sky, in Bibo Garden, because the master was already awake and was about to go out on business, the maids and the two servants were busy in and out to serve Jiang Luoyu, and they did not dare to slack off at all. They didn't let out a sigh of relief until the carriage that sent Jiang Luoyu respectfully disappeared after a cup of tea.

The carriage swayed around in front of the outer wall of the Prince's Mansion, and Jiang Luoyu had already changed into the indistinct clothes in the carriage, dressed like a bodyguard, and rode with a bone fan on horseback leading Sleeping Star and the two of them. After a while, he arrived at the Ning Mansion where the house was still being raided. He showed the token given by the Eighth Prince yesterday, and walked into the mansion smoothly.

As soon as he stepped into the mansion, before he took a few steps, he heard a shrill cry from not far away. After careful identification, he easily recognized that it was two children, a boy and a girl. sound.

Hearing such a sound, the eyes of the person who had just entered the gate changed slightly. He patted his palm with the folding fan in his hand, turned around and walked towards the place where the sound came from. Not surprisingly, he saw in the corner of the corridor not far away. Two soldiers were dragging a boy who was only ten years old. The boy struggled in panic and refused to be dragged away by them. Kneeling not far from the two soldiers was a boy who seemed to be 15 years old. The girl, who was begging for something with tears all over her face, was holding on to the ten-year-old boy's sleeve tightly.

"No, no! Brother!"

Jiang Luoyu stood not far away and looked at it for a while, and keenly noticed that when the boy saw the 15-year-old girl, a trace of obvious disdain flashed in his eyes, but he quickly suppressed it because of the current situation, and replaced it with complete embarrassment. Terrified, he cried bitterly: "...Sister, sister, save me!"

Seeing this strange scene, originally he just wanted to come and have a look, but turned into a little bit of curiosity, walked slowly to the two soldiers who were dragging the 15-year-old boy, and put the token in their hands on the two of them Shaking in front of him, the two of them immediately stopped their hands, and bowed respectfully: "I've seen you, sir."

Jiang Luoyu unfolded the bone fan in his hand, glanced at the situation in front of him with a smile, regardless of the panic and vague arrogance at this moment, as if he was very confident in himself, someone would come to rescue him, and the boy who dragged him The girl who was holding onto the corner of the boy's clothes and refused to let go, gently hooked the corners of her lips and said softly.

"Don't worry about me, it's up to you."

As soon as these eight words came out, the young man who thought that someone was here to let the soldiers let him go immediately changed his expression. He looked at Jiang Luoyu who was so close in disbelief, and finally became ashen-faced and trembling, while he was kneeling The girl on the ground seemed to realize something, she suddenly let go of the hand that was holding the boy's sleeve, and instead knelt down in front of Jiang Luoyu, lowering her head and knocking hard on the ground.

"grown ups!"

Her voice was filled with pleading, and her body was trembling as if she was extremely frightened, but Jiang Luoyu found that when she lowered her body, her fingers moved unconsciously, and her posture was like a dormant beast. The corners of his lips couldn't help but bend even deeper—it was just an unintentional action, but he unexpectedly met someone he was interested in.

"If my lord is willing to save my brother, Ning Que is willing to serve my lord! I will do my best!"

Seeing that the girl seemed to be holding her hostage, Jiang Luoyu raised her eyebrows slightly, pretending to take a step forward unaware, but the unfolded bone fan suddenly closed and lifted the girl kneeling on the ground When she saw her beautiful face, an unexpected light flashed in her eyes.

"Interesting, in the inner house, there is a little girl who knows a little bit of martial arts."

As soon as these words were spoken, not only the girl who was forced to raise her face froze for a moment, even the panicked young man who was not far away looked at Jiang Luoyu with fear. and the color of despair.

Jiang Luoyu knew that the two of them were thinking of each other, maybe the girl in front of her was thinking that he was called an adult, and she was beautiful and slender like a twin, so she sneaked up on him when he was not prepared, and let the two A soldier let go of the boy he was holding, but it's a pity that he said such a sentence and was so close to this girl, obviously he also has martial arts——

Seeing the girl's expression change again and again, after taking a deep look at the young man not far away, when she was in a daze and about to go in the direction of burning jade and stone together, Jiang Luoyu retracted the folding fan in her hand, straightened up and moved with a smile Moving his fingers, he suddenly said to the girl in a deep voice.

"I can save your brother once. Although he will inevitably be imprisoned due to His Majesty's decree, but after he is released, I will keep him safe and well-fed. I don't need you to repay me insanely, but I want you to do one thing , No matter what means you use to make things happen, I can set you free, and you can do whatever you want in the future. This has nothing to do with promises, but a deal, do you dare to accept it? "

Hearing this, the expression on the girl's face changed immediately, her fingers clenched her skirt tightly, she knelt down and took two steps forward, and asked in a difficult voice: "Is your lord's statement true?"
