Xiang Jun, who was dressed in gray and thin, came in first, followed by Bai Yutang. His shadow was always on Xiang Jun's shoulder. Jun then knelt down on the ground.

Fang stood still in the hall, and Bai Yutang felt an eager gaze looking towards him. He turned his head and saw Lin Ruoqing also kneeling in the hall. He suppressed his surprise and shouted: "The grass-roots Baiyu Please see Mr. Bao." Then he knelt down on the ground in a very respectful manner.

"Young Xia Bai, please, I'm sorry, Young Xia Bai." Bao Zheng said gratefully.

Bai Yutang got up and stood aside.Bao Zheng looked at Xiang Jun and asked, "Are you Xiang Jun?"

"That's right." Xiang Jun nodded.After he finished speaking, he felt a hateful gaze fell on him, as if a sharp knife was about to pierce him, making him feel like a thorn in his back, restless, and finally he mustered up the courage to look at that gaze Looking over, facing Lin Ruoqing's resentful eyes, he couldn't help shivering, lowered his head to avoid that gaze, but still felt it lingering on his body, making him feel like he was sitting on pins and needles.

"Bai Shaoxia, where did you catch Xiang Jun?" Bao Zheng asked after pondering for a moment.

"Zuixian Tower." Bai Yutang answered crisply.

Bao Zheng turned his gaze to Zhang Feng and asked, "Zhang Feng, I ask you, where was Master Luo attacked?"

Zhang Feng thought for a while, and replied, "It seems to be near Zuixianlou too."

"Did you hear the flute at that time?" Bao Zheng asked immediately.

"This..." Zhang Feng hesitated for a moment, before Fang replied: "At that time, there was indeed a very ear-piercing flute sound coming from the Drunken Immortal Tower. But Lord Bao, what does this have to do with this woman killing our Lord?"

Bao Zheng didn't answer but turned his head to look at Xiang Jun, and asked, "Xiang Jun, the mansion asked you, but you used the sound of the flute to control Lin Ruoqing out of the Kaifeng mansion, and then manipulated her to commit murder in the street?"

Up to now, Xiang Jun doesn't want to hide anything anymore, he has sold his life for Chu Tianyi for so long and got nothing, even his only daughter is alive or dead, maybe this is retribution, right?He glanced at Lin Ruoqing at the side full of apology, and nodded slightly.

"What hatred do I have with you that you want to treat me like this?" Lin Ruoqing finally couldn't help crying, Bai Yutang stepped forward, knelt down to comfort her softly, and she slowly stopped crying just now.

"Why did you do this? Who ordered you? Where is your flute to control people?" Bao Zheng was also very angry in his heart, and asked one after another.

Xiang Jun took out a small piccolo from his bosom, and said slowly: "The flute is here, and Chu Tianyi ordered me to do all of this. Including refining Heart-biting Gu, including poisoning the two adults to death, Chu Tianyi ordered me to do it."

"Heart-eating Gu? Do you have the antidote for Heart-eating Gu?" Lin Ruoqing somehow got the strength to push away Bai Yutang beside her, and almost rushed towards Xiang Jun.

"Xiang Jun!" Bai Yutang gave Xiang Jun a hard look, shook his head imperceptibly, and warned him in a low voice.

A trace of sympathy flashed across Xiang Jun's eyes like a dead fish. Hearing Bai Yutang's warning, he opened his mouth and finally said, "Not yet, but I will find a way." After saying this , he turned his head away, not daring to look into her eyes again.

Lin Ruoqing exhausted all her strength and sat slumped in the courtroom, Bai Yutang rushed forward to help her up.

Over there, Zhang Feng couldn't help opening his mouth: "Master Bao, even if she is controlled by someone, but it is true that she hurt people, Master Bao is not planning to just let it go like this?"

Bao Zheng lowered his eyes and pondered for a long time, before he raised his head and patted the gavel, and said in a deep voice: "Come here, first return Xiang Jun and Lin Ruoqing to the prison." Then he turned his head and said to Zhang Feng: " This government will go to the Luo Mansion with you to visit Master Luo, and then we will sentence you according to the laws of the Song Dynasty." Although Zhang Feng was unwilling, he had no choice but to do so at this moment, and he was always thinking about his lord in his heart An Wei glanced at Lin Ruoqing bitterly, and finally nodded.

Xiang Jun was taken down, and Lin Ruoqing was framed up like a puppet. She only glanced at Bai Yutang, and there seemed to be a thousand words in that look, but there was nothing in it until many years later, Bai Yutang Thinking of the look in her eyes that day, her chest was still as tight as a boulder.

When Bao Zheng passed by Bai Yutang, he took a deep look at him, sighed, and said, "When the Zhan guards come back, persuade him well." Then he and Gongsun Ce went out the door one after the other.

Until everyone dispersed, Bai Yutang was the only one left in the empty lobby. He stood there blankly with his picture in his hand. Although he found the murderer, he didn't feel the slightest joy in his heart. Instead, he felt a stronger sense of powerlessness. hit the heart.

Zhan Zhao and Chao Mahan finally found A Liang who had been reduced to a beggar, and the three hurriedly brought him back to Kaifeng Mansion.As soon as he stepped into the gate of the mansion, Zhan Zhao saw the Baiyutang standing not far away. Although the afternoon sun was warm, the cold wind that hit his face still inexplicably chilled Zhan Zhao. After taking it down, he walked slowly to Bai Yutang, and said softly, "Brother Bai, do you have any news about Xiang Jun?"

"I'm waiting for you here to tell you two things, Zhan Zhao, you must hold on." Bai Yutang met Zhan Zhao's gaze and said.

"Brother Bai, what do you want to say?" An ominous premonition rose in Zhan Zhao's heart, and he didn't even notice that his voice was trembling.

Bai Yutang looked past Zhan Zhao and stayed on the solemn and solemn gate of Kaifeng Mansion, and said in a difficult voice: "Xiang Jun used the sound of the flute to control the Gu worms in Miss Lin's body today, causing Miss Lin to commit murder in the street and hurt Lord Luo, the servant of the Ministry of Rites. .”

Zhan Zhao suddenly opened his eyes wide, met Bai Yutang's gaze, and asked in a hoarse voice, "Is Lord Luo in danger for his life?"

Bai Yutang sighed lightly, this Zhan Zhao had to say something about him, since business affairs always come first in his mind, shouldn't he be the first to ask Miss Lin?

"Lord Bao and Mr. Gongsun went to visit Lord Luo's residence. How are they injured? I don't know." Bai Yutang said coldly.

"What about Ruoqing? Is she injured?" Zhan Zhao said tremblingly.

Bai Yutang cast a sideways glance at Zhan Zhao, and said dissatisfiedly, "I just thought of asking her now? She wasn't injured, but she was put in prison. With her current body, how could she endure the pain in prison?"

Zhan Zhao didn't speak, just pursed his lips tightly, and was about to leave when Bai Yutang called out, "Zhan Zhao."

Zhan Zhao stopped but didn't look back, Bai Yutang turned around to look at Zhan Zhao's thin and straight back, his red official uniform looked a little fat at the moment, Bai Yutang suddenly felt an inexplicable feeling in his heart , I don't know how much he can bear on his seemingly thin shoulders?

Seeing that he didn't speak, Zhan Zhao turned around to look at him in surprise, and asked, "You just said you wanted to tell me two things, what else is there besides this one?"

Zhan Zhao's voice is still clear and gentle, his eyes are always clear and calm, but Bai Yutang knows how many turbulent waves he has endured under his seemingly calm appearance, he hides everything, even when his sweetheart suffers such a disaster, he can be so calm .He opened his mouth, but he couldn't bear to speak. After thinking about it, he knew about it sooner or later. It might be better to tell him from him, so he hesitated again and again, and finally opened his mouth with difficulty: "Today I caught Xiang Jun and asked him Does he have an antidote to the Heart-eating Gu?" At this point, he saw a gleam of light flashing in the depths of Zhan Zhao's eyes, he became ruthless, turned his head and said: "He said that there is no antidote to the Heart-eating Gu."

Zhan Zhao's face turned pale and frightening in an instant, his figure swayed, as if he was about to fall, Bai Yutang stepped forward to support him, and he grabbed Bai Yutang's wrist with his backhand.

Bai Yutang could clearly feel his hands trembling violently. Looking into Zhan Zhao's eyes, his eyes no longer had the calmness just now, but only great sadness and helplessness. Bai Yutang had never seen Zhan Zhao's eyes like this before. For a moment, I didn't know how to comfort him.After a while, and what seemed like a long time, Zhan Zhao's hoarse voice said, "Does she know?"

Bai Yutang shook his head, and replied softly: "I only said that I would find a way, but I didn't say anything dead."

"That's good, otherwise she won't be able to bear it." Zhan Zhao let go of his hand, and gently closed his eyes. The biting north wind blew his black hair and hatband, and he only felt his heart sink. At the bottom of an unknown valley, my eyes were sore and swollen, but I couldn't shed a single tear.For a moment, Bai Yutang even hoped that he could cry bitterly, but he didn't. When he opened his eyes again, his eyes returned to their usual calmness. He glanced at Bai Yutang, and said lightly: "I'll go Look at her."

Bai Yutang looked at his back with complicated eyes, is this person unwilling to show even the pain to the marrow in front of others?If things go on like this, the one who hurts the most is probably himself.

The prison in Kaifeng Mansion is located in the northwest corner. Zhan Zhao has been here countless times, but he has never walked so heavily like this time. He only feels that every step he takes will affect his heart and bleed. The four words "There is no antidote" almost broke Zhan Zhao's will, he only felt that his eyes were going black for a while, and the soles of his feet were floating, and he vaguely heard someone asking: "Master Zhan, Master Zhan, are you alright?"

Zhan Zhaoqiang withdrew his mind, and vaguely saw the anxious and concerned eyes of a yamen servant. He opened his mouth to speak, but felt that something was stuck in his throat, and he couldn't say a word, so he could only shake his head lightly.

The yamen servant looked at Zhan Zhao's back and sighed. Everyone in the Kaifeng mansion knew that Miss Lin was Mrs. Zhan's sweetheart, and everyone knew that Miss Lin was dying of poison in her body, and now she was involved in a murder case. I really don't know her and exhibition
