The gentleman felt unwell, Xiao Beicheng was very worried, and before Luo Yutang could get the result of the trial, he entrusted Shen Ci to send him back to the palace.

He himself was naturally unwilling in every possible way, making noise and unwilling to live in peace, but in the end he was no match for that person's strength, so he had to submit obediently.

It was almost dawn when Xiao Beicheng came back. He was always concerned about Jun Ziyou's body, and he didn't even listen to the analysis of the case. How is your body? Is it better? Has Dr. Jiang been here, and did he say anything?"

Three consecutive inquiries made Butler Liu dumbfounded, "Don't worry, my lord. Dr. Jiang said that Mr. Jiang will rest for a while, and he will be fine in winter. He has taken the medicine and fell asleep now. The lord has been busy all night, go to rest." , I will take care of you over there."

Responding to his words, Xiao Beicheng still unconsciously walked to the west wing where Junziyou lived, and stood in front of the door looking a little uneasy, looking at his expression, he wanted to find out for himself.

"He doesn't know how to live or die. Seeing how sick he is, you can tell that he has the problem of kicking quilts at night."

Steward Liu is a smart man, he whispered to Shen Ci, "Go in and take a look for the prince, be careful, don't wake him up."

After Shen Ci entered the door, he pulled Xiao Beicheng a little further away, and persuaded him: "My lord cherishes talents, it is natural to be so worried, but please understand, my lord, he just arrived in the capital from Gusu. It is dangerous to choose to follow the prince without any basic contacts, if others know that you care about him so much, they will definitely regard him as the prince's weakness."

"This king understands."

"My lord just saw the shadow of that person in him, and wanted to make up for him out of the guilt in my heart. But please understand, Jun Ziyou is not her after all, he is just an ordinary person suffering from a serious disease, and he is the one who can live It is also his fate if he loses the blessing of the prince and fails to survive."

While Xiao Beicheng was silent, Shen Ci came out of the room with a bitter face, feeling aggrieved.

"My lord..."

"What's the matter, talk about it if you have something to say."

"People, people are gone."

Is it okay to listen to what he said?Xiao Beicheng wanted to rush into the room to find out, but Steward Liu stopped him by grabbing his sleeve.

"My lord, did you forget what I just said?"

Everyone was in a stalemate and no one would back down. At this moment, there were loud noises of objects falling to the ground in the room. Butler Liu naturally let go of his hands and allowed Xiao Beicheng to enter.

The room was pitch black, it was not easy to see what was going on, but the smell of alcohol hit his face, Xiao Beicheng's heart sank, he went straight to the bed, and lifted the brocade quilt.

Sure enough, Jun Ziyou was curled up on the bed, humming and chirping, pretending to be asleep, and was jolted by the sudden wind, leaning against the bed again and again.

"Are you tired of living?"

Hearing the anger in Xiao Beicheng's words, Jun Ziyou was a little flustered, seeing that he couldn't pretend anymore, he turned over and shook his head at the person.

"Where did you go just now?"

"Right here..."

"Nonsense! Shen Ci didn't see you when he came in. Are you playing peek-a-boo?"

"That's because he's stupid...I've been under the covers and haven't gone anywhere."

Listening to his voice, he was already drunk, and the window in the room was still open. He must have thought that he would not be found by sneaking out, but he was caught right away.

There is no way to take him, even if you are angry at him for not knowing how to live or die, you can't really let him abuse your body like this.

"Shen Ci, go and close the window. The king feels his body is cold, go to the king's house and bring a brazier, Steward Liu, go get the bed blanket."

Seeing that he ignored his words, Steward Liu had to follow orders even if he didn't want to, and stomped away indignantly.

Seeing that the two were separated, the gentleman regained his spirits, sat up suddenly from the bed and grabbed Xiao Beicheng's hand.

"My lord, what's the matter with the case? Is there any result in the interrogation of Luo Yutang and the suspects?"

"I am sick like this, and I still have the heart to care for others."

"Tell me..."

With the strength of alcohol, Junziyou couldn't distinguish east from west, north from south, and leaned his forehead on Xiao Beicheng's shoulder, making the latter's body stiff. After thinking about it, he pushed him back on the bed, covered him tightly with the quilt, and let out a long sigh.

"Luo Yutang was recruited. He admitted that he was in collusion with Li's Magnolia, and that Qihuang wanted to replace her. After Qihuang fell ill and died, they were afraid that her deeds would be exposed, so they dared not bury her body lightly, so they called the native master to live with her. The tomb was dug out under the firewood room and the coffin was placed, and a pregnant woman was tied up, disguised as Qihuang and imprisoned in the Langhua Pavilion, where they were tortured by the two of them."

"Later, something happened to the east window."

"You're right. The kidnapped pregnant woman was eager to survive. Taking advantage of their unpreparedness and escaping from the dark room, Luo Yutang and Mrs. Li pursued her closely, causing her to slip into the pool in a panic and drowned. Seeing the flustered Qihuang on the day of the incident, it should be the anonymous victim."

"As far as I can guess, after the death of Anonymous, they buried him in a mass grave in a panic. They even forgot to tear off the mask of the disguise. Afterwards, there was an argument because of it, and it broke up. At this time, the Southwest Commercial Bank took advantage of the situation. And then, Luo Yutang, who was bewitched by money and obsessed with money, killed his wife. Thinking that the only person who knew about his conspiracy would keep the secret forever and get a huge sum of money, Luo Yutang simply used the excuse of negotiating the matter to trick Li into a meeting. I suffocated her with a pillow, and then took her to a mass grave to repeat the same trick, but unfortunately, I ran right in."

The situation that day was probably that Junziyou went to the mass grave outside the city to save Yunjin, and happened to meet Luo Yutang who destroyed the corpse and wiped out the traces. So early the next morning, Shuntian Mansion received reports from the public, and Tan Jiuling quickly notified the Ministry of Punishment to go to the mass grave to find out.

It's a pity that the connection between Junziyou and King Jin's Mansion was unexpected by Luo Yutang. Because of Xiao Beicheng's protection, not only was he not charged with murder, he even participated in the investigation of the murder case. Pretending to be a Qihuang, she went to the Langhua Pavilion with her hair disheveled and pretending to be a ghost, in order to make the case a mystery. In the end, her cleverness was misunderstood by her cleverness, and her suspicion was exposed instead.

Xiao Beicheng pondered and said: "After he kills Mrs. Li, he will definitely benefit from the Southwest Commercial Bank, but he dare not confess in front of Ye Lanchen."

"That's right, he didn't mention the Southwest Commercial Bank. The rest of the Guigong and Tufuzi involved in the case have also been sent to prison, and they will be tried tomorrow. The mother of Langhua Pavilion and Miss Lanxin may really not know about it. There are too many personal emotions in their testimony, which can be used as witnesses. From our standpoint, we have done our best to investigate the case to this point. We can’t move the forces behind them for the time being, so we can only wait for the justice to be punished. one day."

Being able to say such sober words, it can be seen that the gentleman is not so drunk.

Xiao Beicheng shook his head and said: "You reversed the case a few times, and finally cleared Qihuang's charges. The emperor will definitely remember your contribution, and you will have the most reliable support when you enter the court in the future. The most important thing now is to take care of yourself. , only if you live well, can you solve this king's problems."

Having said that, Shen Ci and Steward Liu also came back one after the other. Seeing Jun Ziyou trembling slightly, Xiao Beicheng wrapped him in a blanket, and handed over the wine jar he had hidden under the bed to Steward Liu.

"Wait! That won't work!!"

"You still want to drink and have fun in your body, I'm afraid you think you've lived too long and just wait until you recover!"

Junziyou was speechless, fell on the bed and felt sullen, Liu Butler tried to persuade him, "My lord is doing it for your own good. Dr. Jiang also said that your body will recover after the winter, and then my lord will invite you." Drink the royal wine bestowed by the emperor himself."

After speaking, no one responded for a long time, only to find that Jun Ziyou had fallen asleep in a daze.

Xiao Beicheng had no choice but to ask Shen Ci to move the brazier closer, and then he went out. Before he left, he did not forget to tell him: "Let him move to Nongyu Xiaozhu tomorrow, it is on the second floor, even if he doesn't have the guts to turn over again." The window, besides, the scenery is good, which is good for his recovery."

Although Steward Liu didn't say anything, he knew that what he said was in vain, and the prince wanted to treat him well regardless of the consequences.

Forget it, people...you always have to learn a lesson before you can remember.

In the early morning of the next day, Xiao Beicheng, who had not slept for two hours, was woken up. Shen Ci knocked on the door while shouting "Your Majesty is not good", forcing him to get up.

"What's going on in a panic, what happened?"

"My lord, it's too bad, Luo Yutang committed suicide in prison!"

Hearing this news, Xiao Beicheng was full of helplessness, but he was not in a hurry to find out. He hugged Xiao Hei in the outfield all night, and put Xiao Hei on his lap, smoking shredded tobacco carefully.

"The king guessed that they would take action, but he was really impatient to kill him before the public trial."

"My lord, what should I do now?"

"What else can I do? If there is no proof, the case can only be closed. It is impossible to pull out the Southwest Commercial Bank from this. This matter is done in a seamless manner. It really is the work of the Hou family."

Shen Ci jumped anxiously, "But my lord, aren't you in conflict with the Southwest Commercial Bank and the Hou's Mansion? I'm afraid that in the days to come, people will make things difficult for you everywhere, so it will be difficult."

Hearing his words, Xiao Beicheng felt it was funny, "Embarrassing this king, they don't have the ability, don't forget that there is a treasure in our mansion that made them so angry that they didn't sleep well for a few days, send him to As an official in the court, the Prince Jin's Mansion will be peaceful and smooth in the future. If there is any regret..."

It's Junziyou who is plagued by evil diseases, which makes people feel distressed.

"By the way, my lord, Dr. Jiang came to the mansion early in the morning to check his pulse. He should be awake by now. Do you want to go and see?"

"Success, let's go and have a look."

After washing and changing clothes, Xiao Beicheng went to the wing room to check on Junziyou's condition. Just as Doctor Jiang was going out, he first bowed his head to salute when he saw someone, guessing that he came here specially for Junziyou's illness.

"My lord, can I take a step to speak?"

Xiao Beicheng sent Shen Ci to take care of Junziyou, so he went a little further away with Doctor Jiang.

"Dare to ask Dr. Jiang, how is your husband's illness?"

"I suffered from the cold last night, and I still have some fever this morning. However, after taking the prescription prescribed by me, I have recovered a lot, but this wine... please take it in moderation. I have also said these words to my husband, he is He agreed but didn't take it to heart, so I have to trouble the prince to take care of him and don't let him spoil his body."

"Doctor Jiang once said that his illness was so severe because of the change of seasons, but he has not improved since that day when he fell ill in Langhua Pavilion, but what's the secret?"

"To be honest, the recurrence of Mr.'s illness is indeed due to the change of seasons, but the main reason is..."

Doctor Jiang showed embarrassment, and sighed, seeing him like this, Xiao Beicheng said again: "But it's okay to say."

"I'm afraid it's poison."

Xiao Beicheng unconsciously looked towards Junziyou's room, and listened to the clamor inside for not taking the medicine, his mind was complicated.

"Doctor Jiang is highly skilled in medicine, so I naturally don't doubt your conjecture. It's just where the poison comes from. Please ask Doctor Jiang to explain it clearly."

"My lord, medicine is three-point poison. This medicine is poison, and poison is also medicine. Medical skills focus on prescribing the right medicine. If you take the wrong medicine, even precious medicinal materials such as ginseng and deer antler can become deadly poisons. I think that it is very likely that the husband has been exposed to some medicine that should not be touched, and the disease will relapse urgently and severely. However, I am incompetent and cannot guess what harmed the husband at the moment, so I can only wait for him to improve. Then test one by one .”

"In this way, there will be Doctor Lao Jiang."

"My lord is serious. Having said that, there is one more thing that needs to be reminded repeatedly. About the matter of Mr. Drunkenness..."

Raising his eyes to see Xiao Beicheng's expression, Doctor Jiang dared to continue.

"If it's just now, please ask the prince to supervise him to drink in moderation. It's not that he can't drink, but that he can't drink too much. According to my speculation, the reason why Mr. Li loves alcohol is because of his serious illness. I'm afraid he drinks like this because of..."

"for what?"

"Pain relief."
