With the latest appointment, Tao Jiusi returned to the Su Mansion dejectedly.As soon as they got home, everyone saw that Tao Jiusi had nothing wrong with him other than being in a bad mood, so they surrounded him with confidence and began to ask questions.

Tao Jiusi smiled wryly and said, "Not only did His Royal Highness want to let Miss Lu out, but he even gave me an Eastern Palace attendant to do it."

Zhu Shunli wondered: "So reasonable? Then he had no reason to arrest Miss Lu at that time. Brother Tao, is there some secret behind this?"

Tao Jiusi couldn't tell because he was struggling, so he forced a smile and said, "It's nothing, I wish you an occupational disease."

Lu Shilang came out of the house tremblingly when he heard that things had turned around, and pulled Tao Jiusi with tears in his heart to express his gratitude.

Tao Jiusi supported Lu Shilang, and comforted him: "Uncle, cheer up, the crown prince has promised to release Miss Lu, how about we go to the Ministry of Criminal Justice to pick her up together?"

Lu Shilang was in tears, and nodded repeatedly.

Su Qingquan prepared the carriage for the two of them, but he was worried, so he went with him to the Ministry of Punishment.

When he arrived at the Ministry of Criminal Justice, Tao Jiusi stepped forward and explained why he came here. The chief on duty frowned for a while, and said apologetically, "Master Tao, is Miss Lu your fiancée? She is too weak. He died. My lord, please don't wrong us, we neither sentenced nor interrogated, Miss Lu must have been frightened to death!"

When Lu Shilang heard it, his eyes darkened, and he passed out again.

Tao Jiusi asked his elder brother to help Lu Shilang to rest on the side. He couldn't believe it, and continued to chat with the boss, "Boss Li, are you sure it's Miss Lu?"

Director Li nodded, as if you didn't believe my professional level, "That's right, a thin and frail girl, still wearing a wedding dress, delivered by the prince's guards herself."

Tao Jiusi heard that what he described was the same as Lu Zhanmei, so he couldn't help but believe this fact.Lu Zhanmei's death in the prison this time was not as peaceful as in her previous life. She originally wanted to fulfill her wish, but who knew it became a death talisman.

Tao Jiusi asked, "Where is she now?"

Principal Li: "Human? Oh, my lord, you said the corpse. The corpse is still parked in the Ministry of Criminal Justice. Since His Royal Highness has let you go, I will take you to claim it."

Tao Jiusi turned to look at Lu Shilang, who looked like he had suffered a stroke, which made him worried, "Brother, please take Uncle Lu home first, and ask Dr. Cao to show him, and leave the matter here to me."

Who knew that Lu Shilang heard these words in a daze, and managed to open his eyes, and said in a hoarse voice: "No, no, take me to see Meier."

Tao Jiusi and Su Qingquan had no choice but to support him on the left and right, and followed Mr. Li to the morgue.

In the morgue of the Criminal Department, most of the prisoners who have not survived the torture are lying here waiting for their families to collect them. Because they have suffered a lot of torture during their lifetime, each death is horrific. However, everyone in the Criminal Department has long been used to seeing them, coming in and out He turned a blind eye, so he didn't cover these people with a sheet of clothes.

As soon as Tao Jiusi entered, he almost vomited. Looking back at his elder brother and Lu Shilang, they couldn't bear it either, so he quickened his pace and followed behind Shi Shiran's Chief Li.

Director Li pointed and pointed as he walked, as if he brought a tour group here for a day trip.

Tao Jiusi and his group patiently walked to Lu Zhanmei's side.Lu Shilang wailed and ran towards his daughter, wept for a while, raised his head to look carefully, and saw Lu Zhanmei's face was serene, well-dressed, and there was no scar on his body, knowing that the Ministry of Punishment was probably not to blame for this matter, he could only secretly grieve for his daughter's life .

Director Li was also very sad looking at it from the side, and said: "My condolences, my condolences to Minister Lu." Then he took out a paperwork and asked Minister Lu to fill it out, "Master Minister, after completing this procedure, you can take your daughter home. .”

Lu Shilang was so sad that he couldn't help himself, and the hand that took the document was trembling. Tao Jiusi couldn't bear it when he saw it, and said, "My lord, I am Miss Lu's husband, why don't I do it for you?"

Chief Li nodded: "Yes, yes."

Who knew that Lu Shilang was stubborn and refused to hand over the paper, and said: "Jiusi, you two have never worshiped heaven and earth, and there are countless marriages. In my opinion, let's forget it, it's Meier." Fu Bo, why bother you again. When I bury Meier, I will return the dowry, and please bear with me for a few days."

What Lu Shilang said was sincere. He already felt sorry for the Lu family when he wanted to get married. Since the gift was not completed this time, his daughter suffered such bad luck. There is really no need to rely on the other party.

Su Qingquan knew that Lu Shilang was telling the truth, so he directly agreed on Tao Jiusi's behalf, "Uncle, although Jiusi is not blessed to marry Miss Lu, our two families are destined to each other after all, and our family will do our best to help the Lu family through the difficulties." , Uncle, if you need help, just tell me."

Su Qingquan patted Tao Jiusi's shoulder again, and said, "Jiusi, cheer up, you are still young, don't collapse your body."

Master Tao's marriage was declared bankrupt following Miss Lu's death.At that time, he didn't know that, throughout his life, he would never have the chance to marry and have children.

Tao Jiusi's wedding was suddenly changed, and his fiancée died of illness in prison.Neighbors in the neighborhood naturally enjoyed talking about such a good topic, and everyone in the Su family also felt that Tao Jiusi was deeply affected, and was afraid of hearing rumors when he went out, which would make his sadness worse, so they forced him to rest at home for two months until the end of July. , and let him go to work in the East Palace.

Tao Jiusi looked at Wei Rongyu who was full of smiles, and was a little dazed, as if he had returned to his previous life, that period of miserable days when he didn't know the future, as if he had never left this world.

Wei Rongyu waved his hand in front of Tao Jiusi, and said with a smile, "What are you thinking, brother?"

Tao Jiusi regained his composure, bowed his head to flip through the book, and said, "I didn't think about anything, Your Highness, where did you read just now?"

Wei Rongyu didn't believe Tao Jiusi's rhetoric, so he held down his book, and said sullenly: "You have been teaching me for two months, but every day you look restless, and you often say the first half of a sentence and forget to finish it." Half a sentence, what are you thinking?"

Tao Jiusi was taken aback, do I have it?So unprofessional?

Wei Rongyu pouted: "Are you thinking about your fiancée?"

Tao Jiusi shook his head and said, "Your Highness is thinking too much."

Wei Rongyu snorted, "I'm sorry that you don't have any feelings for her. But, when you were teaching big brother, you were always out of your mind?"

Tao Jiusi didn't look angry at all, but this time it was even worse. He said calmly, "Your Highness, if you don't want to study today, can I resign?"

Wei Rongyu snorted coldly: "What? I can't mention big brother anymore?"

Tao Jiusi looked at the fiery red maple trees outside the window, too lazy to respond to the boy's hysteria.

He has spent a lot of time in a daze recently, and it seems difficult to maintain the many principles and habits he used to stick to.For example, he used to be the first to get up in the Su Mansion, but now he can't sleep at night, and he can't even wake up in the morning.For example, in the past, although he was indifferent to Wei Rongyu, he was not lacking in patience, but now when Wei Rongyu got into a temper tantrum, he chose to keep silent.

Ever since Wei Chengxue had a showdown with him and left the fiefdom, Tao Jiusi believed that the two of them would never fight side by side again. His life goals since his rebirth suddenly collapsed, and his heart that he thought was invincible collapsed.

What is the meaning of rebirth?Is it to watch Wei Lingxue tramp across the four countries with iron hoofs, staining every inch of land with blood?Was it watching him approaching the city again, and Wei Rong and he fled in a hurry?

But he has taught Wei Lingxue for many years, will he remember a little bit?Did Wei Lingxue study hard at the border?Can Xia Kaiyan and Yao Wangze persuade him?In a place of bitter cold, will he be cold?

Tao Jiusi didn't realize at all that his thoughts changed a few times, and he had long since cared about Wei Lingxue's current life.

Over there, Wei Rong and Tao Jiusi couldn't wait for Tao Jiusi's response for a long time, and they were already on the verge of going berserk. Then when Tao Jiusi heard him mentioning his eldest brother, he stared out of the window with blank eyes. If you want him, go to the border! Are you annoyed to death by facing me every day?"

Tao Jiusi was interrupted, looked at Wei Rongyu with a frown, and said dumbly, "Your Highness, what did you just say?"

Wei Rongyu was so angry that he threw up his sleeves and left.

Every time Wei Rongyu got angry with Tao Jiusi, he would throw things even harder when he returned to the palace, and became more moody.

Concubine Du Gui checked the accounts one day, and saw that the East Palace received a lot of new cups, pots and dishes every month, she wondered: "Are the slaves in the East Palace too sloppy and always break things?"

The Meng family said: "Oh! That hurt the crown prince is terrible, the empress should go and rectify it herself."

Concubine Du Gui had exactly this intention, so the master and servant took advantage of Wei Rongyu to meet the cabinet, and went straight to the East Palace in a small sedan chair.

When they arrived at the East Palace, Mrs. Meng called all the palace maids who were close to the prince and asked them to kneel in two rows. First, each person was rewarded with ten whips.Concubine Du Gui calls this Liwei.

Seeing that everyone in the hall had been whipped and looked like they were about to faint, Concubine Du Gui said in satisfaction: "Tell me, why does the Eastern Palace always have porcelain?"

Everyone, you look at me, I look at you, even though your back is still burning, but you dare not speak easily.

Concubine Du Gui said angrily: "Protect each other? You are quite strict! Sister, give me another ten whips each."

"Wait a minute!" The court lady Bikong didn't want to see everyone being punished again, so she said, "Your Majesty, the porcelain...was all smashed by His Highness the Crown Prince."

Concubine Du Gui's eyes were as wide as copper bells, and she questioned: "Bitch, what nonsense are you talking about? What are you doing smashing these?"

Bi Kong kept kowtowing: "I don't know, Your Highness has been moody recently, sometimes everyone can get rewards when you are happy, and sometimes you are not happy, so you close the door and smash some cups and teapots. The servant guesses that it is probably too much pressure for the emperor to supervise the country. He was too old, so he went down from His Royal Highness, and did not report to the empress."

Bikong's explanation sounds reasonable at first glance, but it's normal for the young prince to suddenly face a lot of state affairs, physically and mentally exhausted, and to be in a bad mood occasionally.

But these words can't fool Concubine Du Gui, "Nonsense! Bikong, you are getting more and more courageous! I handle government affairs with the prince every day, how can there be any troubles recently! Why does he close the door and get angry?!"

Concubine Du Gui really didn't understand what happened to her son, so that everyone in the East Palace would rather be beaten than tell the truth.

Suddenly, Mrs. Meng whispered in her ear: "Madam, I'm afraid it wasn't these little maids, which one seduced His Highness's soul? His Highness is still young, and it is inevitable that he will be manipulated by others, which is why he is so abnormal!"

Concubine Du Gui's heart brightened, she felt that it made sense, she got up and slapped Bi Kong several times, and said viciously: "Bi Kong, you are dishonest, tell me quickly, who exactly seduced His Highness the Crown Prince!"

Bikong was startled, looking at Concubine Du Gui, he dared not speak.

Concubine Du Gui slapped her again several times: "Are you stubborn? Okay, now your wings are hard!"

At this moment, a court lady who was still young suddenly stepped forward on her knees, crying and said: "Your Majesty, please let Sister Bikong go, it's because of Master Tao! It's Master Tao!"
