[Comprehensive] leaning on flowers and bamboo

Back in the capital, Gongsun Ce was thrown into the prison directly, caught off guard, Gongsun Ce did not expect that Pang Tong would put him directly in the prison.

Could it be that Pang Tong was going to take him under the knife for the previous guess?

It was too late to tell Hua Manlou what to do, but fortunately Hua Manlou was a quick-witted person. I am afraid that he could handle this situation, and he would definitely figure out a way.

Sitting in the prison, the surrounding area is fairly clean. There is a table and a bed in the corner. There is some hay beside the bed. The quilt on the bed can be seen to be functional. As it got warmer, he didn't want to touch the quilt at all, not even the bed.

Sitting down at the table, he stretched his wrist, feeling helpless to see the red marks on his wrist.

Fortunately, Hua Manlou didn't find the traces of the shackles on his hands yesterday, otherwise Hua Manlou would always have a good temper, and he would inevitably embarrass himself.

I just don't know if Bao Zheng is really in the capital now, and what about Zhan Zhao and the others, whether they were involved or...

Questions popped up in his head one after another. Gongsun Ce turned his head and glanced at the bed. He was hesitating whether to lie down on it or not when a jailer came outside the door. The jailer came in carrying some things and put them on the bed and table. "Gongsun Ce, these are all confessed by Da Da, so cherish them."

Huge man?Pang Tong?

Gongsun Ce was a little surprised, but it meant that his guess was not completely wrong. Pang Tong might have another purpose in keeping him here, trying to... prevent him from doing certain things.

"Thank you."

"Master Gongsun, it's unlucky for you to meet the Pang family. Just tell me if you need anything here. Someone outside will take care of it for you. I met you just now."

"Oh? I see. You tell him that I'm fine."

"Hey, he said he knew you might not be used to bedding here, so he brought two teenagers over and handed over the things to me before leaving, but he didn't say anything about the rest."

The jailer's words reassured Gongsun Ce completely. Hua Manlou knew him well, so he didn't explain.

He signaled to the jailer that Gongsun Ce was lying on the bed with a new quilt, pillowing his forearm. After thinking about it, he felt that now that he was here, he might not be able to do anything. some effect.

Zhan Zhao looked back at the door of the prison, and looked at Hua Manlou worriedly, "Brother Hua, is it really all right? The jailer just said that he could let us in for a while and meet Brother Gongsun, why didn't you go in? Don't you want to see Big Brother Gongsun?"

Bai Yutang next to him shook his head, completely disapproving of Zhan Zhao's straightforward thinking.

Hua Manlou's expression remained the same when he heard the words, "Seeing him will make you feel confused, not to mention I can't see him, so it's better not to meet him, all we can do outside is to get him out as soon as possible."

"what?"

"You're such a piece of wooden fish, you don't even understand." Bai Yutang finally couldn't hold back and said, "I don't know what you grew up on, you're so stupid! Brother Hua, tell me, what are we going to do? Now there is Zhang Long Zhaohu, Dynasty Mahan can help, if we want to rescue Gongsun Ce, we can definitely do it, if we can’t, then—"

"No, get rid of this thought."

"If you have to, it's okay..."

"That's right, Brother Hua, actually, I also think what Chinchilla is saying is right."

Hua Manlou couldn't laugh or cry when he heard the words of the two boys, but he couldn't speak directly, so he said, "Why should I become a fugitive if I can walk out in a fair manner?"

"That's it? Don't tell me you have a solution, Big Brother Hua?"

Bai Yutang patted Zhan Zhao's shoulder, "You still can't see it? Of course there is a way."

"real--"

"No, I haven't figured out a solution yet." Hua Manlou's words made the two of them freeze in place, and after a while they turned their heads to look at each other, and the surprise they saw was exactly the same as their own, and they shook their heads instantly.

Zhan Zhao pursed his lips, and while chasing after him, he said, "I thought you knew a lot."

"you!"

I feel reconciled to falling behind, but it is true that I was wrong just now, but who knew that Huamanlou would be like this?

After Huamanlou returned to the inn, Zhan Zhao and Bai Yutang had already sat down beside him, one on the left and one on the right. Huamanlou stopped pouring tea, raised the corners of his mouth and said, "Follow me, and I will follow you." It’s impossible to come up with a solution all at once, but I promise, I’ll let Gongsun Ce come back intact.”

"No, Brother Hua, do you know? What happened this time is very strange. The person under investigation turned out to be the Eight Sage Kings! The Eight Sage Kings colluded with the enemy, colluded with foreign thieves, formed a party for personal gain..." Zhan Zhao glanced around carefully as he spoke. "Pang Taishi and his son were ordered to investigate the eight sage kings, but the strange thing is that, just like last time, Pang Taishi actually spoke for the eight sage kings. Do you think it's strange? Could it be that the emperor has a civet cat in exchange for the prince's brother?" If not, it would be complicated."

Bai Yutang was stunned when he heard the words, "The last time you were talking about the eight wise kings killing a court lady?"

"Why are you asking this?"

"Aren't you going to say it? Just don't say it. I'm not willing to listen to you, sir." Bai Yutang stood up and walked out, "I'll be back later."

After Hua Manlou nodded, he heard the sound of the door closing, and turned around to ask Zhan Zhao, "Eight Wise Kings in jail?"

"Of course it is impossible for the Baxian King to go to prison. Now he can't see anyone in the palace. There is a feeling that the old things are happening again, but this time Brother Bao is not here, and Brother Gongsun is not here, but this time the crime is bigger than that. Foreign enemies are not as simple as killing a court lady, if that matter is going to lose their heads, then even ten heads are not enough for this matter."

Zhan Zhao was quite clear about these things, but since the Eight Wise Kings were under house arrest, the only power they could rely on in Beijing was gone, and they could only rely on themselves.

Bao Zheng still has the emperor, but now that Bao Zheng is not there, the emperor will not be able to use it.

"Is there any news about Gongsun Ce in the capital?"

"No, it's just that Uncle Gongsun sent a letter about this matter. He just arrived yesterday. The letter said that if Brother Gongsun is really a spy, he will be killed. No, you will go back to Luzhou together when the suspicion is cleared."

"I understand what Uncle Gongsun means."

"Brother Hua, do you have any ideas? Forget it, I will not bother you anymore. Brother Gongsun and Brother Bao don't like to be disturbed by others when they solve the case. I think you must be the same. I'm next door, what do you need?" If I do it, tell me at any time, and I will definitely go back and forth."

Hearing this, Hua Manlou smiled and said, "En."

After Zhan Zhao left for a while, Xiao Er knocked on the door, "Master, there is a lady downstairs looking for you."

"Madam?" Hua Manlou frowned slightly, thought for a while and said, "Please come up."

"Yes."

The door was pushed open, and the footsteps didn't sound like ordinary women, but they had some kung fu foundation. As the person approached, the faint smell of jasmine in the room became clearer, making Huamanlou take off guard, and raised his hand to pour a cup for the other person. Tea, "Ma'am, you're not here for Hua, but for Ah Ce, right?"

Pang Feiyan raised her eyes to stare at the person in front of her, looked at the person in front of her, and said, "Gongsun Ce's friends are much more reliable. It's really not suitable for someone like Bao Zheng to stand with Gongsun Ce, but you are better suited to solve the case." Well, let the assistants below look at the adults above to enjoy themselves."

"Thank you Madam for your compliment."

"My surname is Pang, and my husband's family name is Zhao."

"I don't know if Miss Feiyan is here to find a solution for Gongsun Ce or to defend the Pang family."

Pang Feiyan didn't expect that Huamanlou was actually a person, but thinking about it, the person who followed Gongsun Ce through life and death, and followed him all the way to the border must not be a simple person. Pang Tong didn't describe him much, but it was enough for Pang Feiyan to know Huamanlou. simple man.

"I have both. I, Pang Feiyan, have never been polite. I can't hide things in my heart." Taking a look at Hua Manlou's expression, he continued: "This time it was not the Pang family's doing. It is also true that the virtuous king excused himself. If you don’t believe me, you can go and investigate. As for Gongsun Ce in the prison, I don’t know why my brother locked him in there, but he will definitely not treat him badly. You——If you need help, my sister It's the imperial concubine, you can come to the Marquis Mansion to find me, and I will tell the concierge."

Hua Manlou heard the meaning of Pang Feiyan's words, and had a good impression of this Ms. Pang San, who had a mouth in Gongsun Ce's mouth and was enthusiastic, simple and stubborn in three-legged cat kung fu, which was different from her previous indifference. Let him have something to do."

"Bao Zheng's whereabouts are unknown. I asked my father if he did it. He said I was not filial. I also thought I was not filial. But Brother Bao disappeared. I was anxious. I know they are all my good friends. Now it's my turn. When it comes to Gongsun Ce, I also hope that Gongsun Ce will be safe, he is better than Bao Zheng, at least I know he is alive, but Bao Zheng has no news about him, his life and death are unknown, I..."

"They have always regarded you as a very good friend, Zhan Zhao is next door, should you ask him to come over?"

"Hey, is the little bald head here?"

"kindness."

Just as he was talking, Zhan Zhao came in with a bun in his mouth, and was startled when he saw Pang Feiyan, the bun fell off, he reached out to catch it and burned his hand, "Oh, I'm scalded to death, I'm scalded to death!"

"Little bald head, I haven't seen you for a while, but you are still so stupid!"

"Sister Feiyan, why did you come to see Big Brother Hua?!"

Pang Feiyan raised her eyebrows, "Why can't I come, you little bald head, hurry up and eat your buns."

"You are still so fierce, that Lord Hou can bear you."

"What did you say?!"

Zhan Zhao hurriedly ran to the back of Huamanlou, "Oh, I've saved my life, I've killed someone, Miss Pang San is going to kill someone, help me!"

Hua Manlou was quite helpless, and was about to open his mouth, when there was a thumping sound when he ran up the stairs outside, followed by someone knocking on the door, and the sound of slapping the door was like a cannon, hitting the hearts of several people .
