Huo Tai ordered Huang Yong to investigate the movements of the eldest prince in recent days.

"Ask some things directly, maybe you can find out some tricks." Fang Shu knew that Huo Tailing had a feud with the First Prince, so he said, "I'll go with you."

"Well." Huo Tailing snorted, "That kid better stop coveting you! I can't help but abuse him by lynching."

"Do you really think I'm a sweet potato?" Fang Shu said with a little confidence, "I was born into a royal dragon family, so what's the trouble with me, a commoner?"

"Although I was born in the family of a prince and general, I am less than one in ten million than you, you are a dog!" After saying that, he scratched the tip of his nose, "You actually like me, you say When did you say you liked me? Could it be that you were subdued by me? "

Fang Shu's face turned red half the sky, and said: "Stop talking nonsense, go to the palace to handle important matters!"

Huo Tailing thought to himself: "This person cannot be forced. There will be a long time to come, and there will be opportunities to ask. Don't rush for a while."

The two changed their official uniforms, and rode their horses towards the palace. The two stopped Zhu Changluo on the way from Shangshufang to Ciqing Palace, and only Wang An was with him, holding some scrolls in his arms. The first whisper said something, and Wang An nodded.Looking up again, Fang Shu is less than five paces away in front of him, he is standing like a pine tree, with one hand behind his back and the other in front of him, his talent is lingering, his eyes are stained with stars, and his face is full of joy.

When he saw Huo Tailing standing behind Fang Shu, the stars were also sad, and the joy dissipated, and he asked: "What's the matter, my lords?" It was obvious that he was waiting for him here.

Huo Tailing saw his reaction clearly, glanced at him, and snorted coldly.

Fang Shu nodded, "I have something to say to His Highness."

Zhu Changluo still had a smile on his face, "Then go to my palace and tell me, I'm afraid the two of you will be caught in the cold outside."

"Alright." Fang Shu nodded.

The two followed Zhu Changluo and Wang An into the Ciqing Palace. When they entered the palace, they also felt very cold. Zhu Changluo hurriedly told Wang An: "Hurry up and add some charcoal fire, don't let the two adults be cold."

The palace is deserted, and there are no maids and other servants.

Fang Shu asked, "Only you and Wang An?"

"The third younger brother said a few days ago that the maids and father-in-laws in his palace were not serving well, so he named the people below me, and the emperor rewarded him casually."

They are all dragon species, and they are treated like cloud mud.

Huo Tailing was not polite, he pulled Fang Shu to sit on a soft couch directly above the palace, Fang Shu whispered: "Don't be so rude!"

"Then I'll sit." Huo Tailing sat down, still playing with Fang Shu's finger, Fang Shu quickly withdrew it, "Don't make trouble!"

Zhu Changluo withdrew his gaze and handed tea to the two, "It's all right, I don't pay attention to common etiquette here, the two adults can do whatever they want, sir, please sit down too."

Zhu Changluo sat down on the couch, and Fang Shu didn't sit next to Huo Tailing, but sat opposite Zhu Changluo. Wang An came in to add charcoal to the beast stove, and the palace gradually became warmer.

The fine shark gauze tent floats with the hot air, making people's faces turn red.

"Wang An, go and bring some preserved fruit to eat."

Wang An agreed and withdrew.

Fang Shu got straight to the point, "Master Huo and I came here today because of Liu Fu's case. I heard that you had a conflict with him some time ago. I don't know what it is?"

Embarrassment appeared on Zhu Changluo's face, "It's all private matters."

"Could it be a guilty conscience?!", Huo Tailing sat directly above, with his elbows on his knees and his face, looking at Zhu Changluo's every move and expression.

Zhu Changluo said in a low voice, "No...it's related to Mister."

"Is it related to me?" Fang Shu and Huo Tailing looked at each other, the latter was already displeased, so Fang Shu continued to ask: "You continue to talk."

Zhu Changluo said with a sullen face: "About ten days ago, I stayed a little late in the Shang study that night. When passing by the Longzong Gate, I heard Liu Fu talking with his close father-in-law. At that time, I could only vaguely hear it. I can recognize Liu Fu's voice, it's hoarse, with a strong accent, someone asked: "Then the people in Admiral Huo's house dare to move? ", and then Liu Fu said, "The above orders, we just do things, and we still have money!"And this shouldn't be aimed at Admiral Huo, I'm afraid it's just getting too close to Zhilan Tanhua!This woman's passing through the door is almost like being thrown into the cold palace, and Admiral Huo is thousands of miles away, who cares? ", anyway, that's probably what it means. When I want to see clearly, I have disappeared after passing the corner of the palace wall. I asked Wang An to pay close attention to the safety of my husband. Later, I heard that my husband was looking for someone everywhere, so I went to find him. He reasoned and asked about the whereabouts of the person, but he denied it flatly, which led to a dispute. I just want to help Mr.

Feeling sad again, Fang Shu sighed, and asked calmly, "That's all?"

Zhu Changluo nodded, "It's just that, I won't do such a thankless thing. Killing him won't do me any good, and the girl won't be rescued, and she will still be in jail."

"Okay, I didn't ask anything." Huo Tailing got up, walked to Fang Shu's side, and stretched out his hand to him, as if to pull him up.

Zhu Changluo also got up quickly, and said: "The two adults are here, why don't you go after a meal, don't dislike me as a cold dish in the palace."

"Dislike." Huo Tailing rejected him with one word.

Fang Shushen asked him to pull himself up, and said goodbye to Zhu Changluo, saying: "I'm bothering Your Highness, I don't want to bother you anymore, I will leave."

Fang Shu just stopped, and Huo Tailing held his hand again, fingers still interlocked, a needle pierced Zhu Changluo's heart from the eye.

Looking at the background of the two leaving the palace, Huo Tailing whispered something to Fang Shu while walking, Fang Shu lightly hammered his arm again, his whole person was not as deserted as usual, only coquettish and shy.Huo Tailing also didn't know anyone to be cruel, only doting.

Then Wang An came with fruit and food, and when he reached the door, he saw the two people leaving, and apologized: "Your Highness, there is not much food in the palace, so I went to the Shangshan Department to ask for some.", Wang An An ran flushed and panted, Zhu Changluo knocked the food plate in Wang An's hand to the ground, spilling dried fruit and snacks all over the floor.Zhu Changluo walked into the room with a flick of his sleeves and shouted: "Don't bother me!!"

Wang An just sighed and cleaned up the overturned fruit plate.

In the inner room with heating, the heart is like the cold winter in the outer room.

Huo Tailing was busy investigating Liu Fu's matter, and came back late for two days in a row, and Fang Shu was also busy with the official documents of the six subjects. Except for the lingering at night, there were hardly any people in the daytime. Huo Tailing came back this night especially Chi, Fang Shu has been lying on the bed waiting for him to come back, I don't know if it's the third watch or the fifth watch, there is only a fire outside the room, there is a commotion in the mansion, Fang Shu hastily got up and dressed, opened the door, Qi Liang came in with a lamp, With a panicked face, he hurriedly couldn't complete a sentence, "Master Huo was assassinated!"

Fang Shu saw that the courtyard was in a mess, and all the people in the house came out to see the situation. People held up lanterns or torches. Huang Yong and two Jinyi guards carried Huo Tailing, who was half-stained in blood, to enter the house. Shu hurriedly stepped forward and hurriedly asked: "Tailing? What's going on!" Huo Tailing, who was half unconscious, heard a little crying. Although he was weak, he was very angry and roared: "Didn't you say you were going back to Ming Zhi Nunnery? Huang Yong!" The roar pulled the wound on his waist, and more blood flowed out.

Fang Shu's eyes were red, and he tried to hold down the bloody hole with his hand, but he only got blood on his hand, which was horribly hot.

"Lang Zhong! Is it Lang Zhong?!" Fang Shu shouted anxiously.

Fang Shu's hand was covered by Huo Tailing, it was very cold, under the light of the torch, Huo Tailing smiled palely, he tried hard to let Fang Shu relax, "Don't...don't worry...it's just a minor injury!"

"What a small injury! She's bleeding... so much blood..."

They asked them to carry Huo Tailing to the bed, and Fang Shu brought water to Huo Tailing to wipe the wound on his waist, and then he took a closer look at the wound as wide as a bowl, which was shocking, Fang Shu couldn't bear to say a word, and the doctor carried a The wooden box came in a hurry.

During the process of Lang Zhong bandaging Huo Tailing, Huo Tailing kept holding on to Fang Shu's hand, and Fang Shu let Huo Tailing lie on his chest, one was too painful to speak, and the other was so painful that he couldn't speak .

The needle and thread penetrated into the flesh, and from the navel to the hip bone, it became a thousand-legged centipede. It was as fresh as a new bamboo shoot on the other scars. By the time the doctor finished it with great effort, Huo Tailing had passed out.

"My lord's wound is a bit deep, I need to rest for a while! But... Your lord has also suffered a head injury, and you may experience temporary amnesia. It's lucky that your life is not in danger." After writing the medicine list, Fang Shu handed it to Qi Liang and asked him to go to Huimin Pharmacy overnight to get the medicine.

Fang Shu probed his head lightly, only to find a large bump on the back of his head, which seemed to be injured by a blunt instrument.

Changed the bloody quilt again, nodded to Huang Yong and signaled to talk outside the room, Fang Shu dragged Huang Yong to a pavilion far away from the room, it started to rain lightly at night, and there was a cold wind again, making Huang Yong shiver A few shakes, but Fang Shu didn't take this into consideration, and asked, "What happened?"

Huang Yong also had some regrets, "Because the Holy Majesty was in a hurry, my lord has been running around for the past two days, and when things finally became clear, my lord returned home like an arrow, saying that I was afraid that my lord Fang would be waiting in a hurry at night, so I went back all the way. He rushed, but was ambushed and injured. When we followed him, the ground was already full of corpses, and we still don’t know who did it. It was because we didn’t protect our lord well.”

"What did he find out?"

"It is said that it has something to do with Concubine Zheng and the eldest prince, but the lower officials don't know who it is." Huang Yong came to his senses and asked, "Is your lord suspicious?"

Fang Shu nodded, "I'm afraid someone wants to kill people to silence them." Thinking of this, Fang Shu rushed through the needle rain and went back to the room to see that Huo Tailing was still lying down, and said to Huang Yong who followed: "Go back and rest. , here is me."

"Well, I'll send some soldiers to guard it better."

"Thank you!"

Fang Shu didn't feel sleepy, so he gave Huo Tailing medicine and stayed there until dawn.

After dawn, an unexpected visitor came to Zhongzhiju, and someone from Dali Temple came to pick someone up, and it was none other than Huo Tailing.

As soon as Qi Liang heard this, he fought with a dozen officers and soldiers who came, "Damn you! Don't you have eyes? You came here to arrest people?!"

"Qi Liang!", Fang Shu pulled him back, several officers and soldiers had their faces swollen from his beating, Qi Liang was not much better, his nose was bruised and bleeding.

Fang Shu asked Qianhu, the leader, "Why are you arresting Mr. Huo?"

"Someone provided evidence." Qianhu Duo covered his swollen side face. It was a chubby face, but the other half was swollen, like a steamed bun. He beat the soldiers behind him. After making a gesture, the person behind brought a piece of clothing, it was the bloody clothing that Huo Tailing wore home two nights ago, it disappeared the next day, thinking it was taken by a servant to wash, but the next two days were too busy, Then forget its existence.

"The one who criticized Liu Fu's murder was Mr. Huo, and now we want to arrest him and bring him back to Dali Temple."

"Impossible! It is impossible for Tailing to kill people like this." Fang Shu still wanted to explain, but was interrupted by Qianhu, "Master Fang, we are looking at the evidence. Today we are here to take people away. Your people have interfered. Our justice is normal, if it is not for your face, this biting dog will also be taken away!"

That thousand households hated Qi Liang so much.

"Who gave this bloody coat?" Fang Shu asked.

Qianhu shook his head, "I'm only in charge of arresting people. I don't care what the case is. You can ask Mr. He. If Mr. Fang tries to stop you again, the people in your family will go to jail to drink water for two days."

"Taiwan order is injured, can I prepare a carriage?" Fang Shu sighed and compromised.

"My lord! Don't let them take Master Huo away!" Qi Liang didn't admit it, and he rolled up his sleeves and was about to step forward. The soldiers of Dali Temple stepped back when they saw this, and Qianhu drew out his knife, "Don't make too much noise Stiff!"

Fang Shu stopped Qi Liang and said: "We acted rightly and sat upright. How can we be wronged in the prosperous age? I will follow you to talk to Mr. He."

In this way, Fang Shu sent Huo Tailing from Zhongzhiju to Dali Temple, and under the care of He Xiang, the cell he lived in was considered spacious and bright.

After the arrangements were made, Fang Shu went to He Xiang to ask about it.

"I haven't had time to congratulate Mr. He, congratulations to Mr. He for being promoted to the Minister of Dali Temple!"

"Hey, there is nothing to congratulate, it's all because the Holy Majesty thought it was troublesome and let me do it."

"About the Taiwan order." Fang Shu asked directly, "Who provided the evidence."

"Fuyan, it's Mr. Shen from the cabinet."

"What?!" Everyone in Fang Shu thought about it, but he didn't think about it.

"Master Shen personally delivered it early this morning. He said that Master Huo is very likely to be the murderer, and that the bloody clothes indeed belonged to Master Huo. And someone in the palace testified that he saw Master Huo in the palace that night.", He Xiang Sighing, "Wang Fuyan still understands my difficulties, and I have to invite Mr. Huo to be our guest."

"I...I know. I'm just asking Mr. He to take care of the decree."

The housekeeper had a bitter face, and He Xiang said in relief: "It's natural, please rest assured about Fuyan. Although it can't be said that you feel at home, there is still no problem with safety."

"Can I come and change his medicine? The doctor said to change it every day. I'm afraid that other people will be clumsy and can't do it well."

He Xiang sighed, and patted him on the shoulder, "Fuyan, you know we have rules here, you can't see prisoners during the interrogation period, all the brothers here come from licking blood from the knife edge, change the medicine or something, it's still not a problem Big, Fang Shu doesn’t have to worry too much.”

"Well...he doesn't like jealousy, don't put sour in the dishes, he likes to eat sweets, if there are some snacks after meals...it's better, tell him to wash his feet before going to bed, He may have dreams at night, and sometimes he likes to kick the quilt. This winter night is still quite cold. If the head of the prison is willing to give him a pair of pants, the officer will be very grateful. Later, I will send someone to send him the books he usually reads. Pass the time for him." After Fang Shu finished speaking, he realized that he was too long-winded, and He Xiang also listened carefully to what he said, "I'm really bothering Mr. He, I will send some food and money."

He Xiang smiled, "I didn't expect Mr. Fang and Mr. Huo to have such a good relationship. They are better than brothers. There is no reason to go to jail at your own expense. I will not accept Mr. Fang's money. Mr. Huo will not be here with me." For those who are wronged, Fu Yan can rest assured."

Not to mention turning back three times at one step, but Fang Shu has three steps and one turning back. After He Xiang personally sent him to the door, He Xiang immediately ordered someone to close the door.

The Nantang Tea Garden was occupied by a group of special guests today. Shen Yiguan was drinking tea and discussing the Tao with some fellow students. Several screens surrounded the crowd, and the animal stove in the house was filled with charcoal, which was considered warm. Shen Yiguan He was talking about Western Catholic teachings with everyone, and everyone listened to this Western stuff with bated breath, but was interrupted by the creaking of the door, and saw someone stumbling in through the gauze curtain. In front of Shen Yiguan, "Master! Fang...Master Fang, he forced his way in!"

"Don't tell me! I'm already here!" The person who came was wearing a blue jacket, holding a sword that was out of its sheath, shining with a cold light, Fang Shu disliked the gauze curtains, and swiped his sword to cut it. The sword is too sharp, soft as thin The yarn is also broken in two.

There were guards outside the door tremblingly surrounded, inside the door everyone except Shen Yiguan lost their expressions, there was an official who recognized Fang Shu, but he had never seen him holding a sword like a demon, and couldn't even say a word, "Master Fang... ..You are here...why? You are still holding a sword, it's scary."

Fang Shu walked up to the crowd and said with a sneer, "I'm here to find Mr. Shen."

"For those who are looking for me, let them go out, it happens that our uncle and nephew should have a good talk.", Shen Wanyi took a sip of cold tea without being surprised.

Fang Shu thought he was pretending to be calm, and swung his sword at the others, "Get out!"

The others also got up and left in a hurry, and Guan Shen didn't leave, "Why don't you leave? I'm talking to your master, it's not good for you to be here!"

Shen Guanshi looked at his master, Shen Yiguan said: "Go out and close the door, Mr. Fang will not do anything out of the ordinary, he is not so stupid."

Fang Shu put his sword back into its sheath, and made a groan, which seemed to calm Guan Shi's heart, before he timidly went out.

"Don't forget to lock the door!" Fang Shu said coldly.

"How did Mr. Fang come here?" Shen Yiguan looked up at the person standing in front of him, "Young man, sit down and talk. I am old and my neck is not working well."

Fang Shucai was sitting opposite him, there were single tables, and there was a distance of two steps between the two of them, "Master Shen's whereabouts are very secretive, no one is seen in the house, and there is no one in the palace, so there is no need to scare you with violence." No one in the house will tell you about your whereabouts. Sometimes people are cheap, and they don't listen to good words."

Shen Yiguan also sneered, with a clear face, "Is it because of Taiwan orders?"

"Yes, and more than that."

Ten years of grievances end once, and then ten years of grievances continue.
