I'm watching the gate in the jail

Heavenly night is as cold as water, sit and watch the morning glory and weaver star.

It's past the seventh day of July, and even though it's midnight, there's still a hint of heat in the air.

After taking a bath, Wanda, who was wearing close-fitting unlined clothing, dragged out a bamboo reclining chair with a big cattail fan in his hand, and lay on the side of Yang Xiuxian in the yard, looking at the two stars facing each other on both sides of the Milky Way. Star.

Beside the Altair, there are two little stars, they are the two children of him and Zhinu.

"You said that the queen mother has been scolded by you for so many years, but she is actually quite wronged."

Wanda picked a chilled grape from the coffee table next to her, and threw it into her mouth, "This Cowherd and Weaver Girl can see each other every day, and they are husband and wife every night, but you scold her for beating mandarin ducks with a club and breaking up a couple. "

"What nonsense are you talking about? The Cowherd and the Weaver Girl only meet once a year. How can they be husband and wife every night?"

Yang Xiuxian put one arm behind his head, turned sideways dumbfounded, and watched Wanda arrange the stars in the sky confidently.

"One year on the ground, one day in the sky. This cowherd is a mortal, and it is true that he has to wait for a year to see his wife once. But for Zhinu, she can see her husband every night. And the two children during the day There is a cowherd to take care of her, she just needs to play with her for a while at night."

Wanda said she was excited, and clapped her hands, "weaving in the sky during the day, and meeting my husband and teasing the children at night. Not only is there no housework, no need to bring a baby, but also the work establishment in heaven. It's perfect, it's perfect weaving The life of a working woman."

Yang Xiuxian has long been used to this little lover's surprising speech, which often makes people puzzled.After hearing his "wrong reasoning", I actually felt that I couldn't refute it, so I nodded in agreement.

"To be honest, Mr. Yang...is he jealous today?"

Wanda sat up with a grunt, moved the small coffee table between the two to the side, and placed the bamboo couch she was lying on side by side with Yang Xiuxian's.

He lay down and asked Yang Xiuxian winkingly.

At the county government hall in Fuliang County this afternoon, what Miss Rong from the capital said almost scared Wanda to the ground.

Not to mention him and Yang Xiuxian, even the Jinyiwei brothers they brought from the capital were so frightened that they almost threw their sabers to the ground.

Fortunately, Ms. Rong added a sentence at the end - "The little girl is going to sue the current Empress Dowager's younger brother, Qing Yunbo Zhoushou".

When Wanda heard this, her legs and feet felt weak at the time, and she almost knelt down to this aunt who was "gasping for breath".

"Why am I jealous..."

Yang Xiuxian turned his face and looked at the stars in the sky, but his tone was involuntarily "sour".

"You are the dignified uncle, the younger brother of the imperial concubine. Your marriage in the future must be appointed by the empress. It will not be the turn of that woman... and it will not be my turn..."

"You still say you're not jealous? I think your vinegar jar has been overturned!"

Wanda laughed strangely, threw down her fan, and rolled over to the bamboo couch beside Yang Xiuxian.He put his hands on the couch, separated his knees, and knelt on Yang Xiuxian's waist.

Lowering her head, a pair of big almond-shaped eyes sparkled with starlight, which was even more dazzling than this sky full of stars.

"I don't want people to marry me. Who am I? The number one bully in the capital! I want to rob civilian men!"

As he said, he leaned down and raised Yang Xiuxian's chin with the index finger of his right hand, showing the expression of a little pervert, "I will rob you today."

Yang Xiuxian was amused by his phrase "robbing civilian men", so he cooperated seriously.

"My lord, I'm the dignified Jinyiwei Qianhu, and I'm not an ordinary 'folk man'."

Yang Xiuxian's eyes were dim, and his right hand rose slowly, touching Wanda's half-stretched waist.

"I'm a 'military officer'."

"It's more exciting and challenging to grab the 'Admiral', which I like."

Wanda licked her lips, eyes filled with undisguised excitement.

From the capital city to Shexian County, from Shexian County to Jingdezhen, they were non-stop along the way, either handling cases or handling cases.

In addition, there is always a "shadow" behind him that cannot be shaken off. That guy is really dedicated to his duties, and he "closely" protects Wanda day and night. As a result, he can't find a chance to make love to Guanghuai.

Now that guy was sent by him to the capital to handle errands, tomorrow that eunuch Liang should be captured by his companions sent to Xin'an River tomorrow morning.

When the time comes, they will have to return to the capital by boat, and they will have no time to get close.

Right now, it is dead of night, and there is not even a cat passing by.

In addition, the Qiu family is in chaos now, and the servants are all confined in the main house, and no one will come to the courtyard where this guest lives.

They don't take the opportunity to seize the time and spend a beautiful time together, let alone when.

There is tenderness in the eyes of the two of them, and the heat in their breath is more intense than the heat.

Yang Xiuxian rolled his Adam's apple, and reached out to pull Wanda's belt...

"Ouch..."

There was an exclamation from outside the courtyard door, which immediately blew away the beauty of the courtyard.

Wanda was so frightened that she fell directly on Yang Xiuxian's body, her knee accidentally touched a place where someone was about to move, and Yang Xiuxian gasped in pain.

Wanda turned pale with fright, and struggled to get up. In desperation, their clothes and laces got mixed together.

In the rush, he either pulled one end or left the other end, the scene was both funny and evocative.

In the end, it was Yang Xiuxian who did nothing but tore off his clothes and put them on Wanda.He got up shirtless and walked to the gate of the yard by the starlight.

Qiu Zijin, who was squatting in the grass, covered his eyes with his hands, and kept saying, "I didn't see it, I didn't see anything. Don't say anything wrong, don't see anything wrong, don't listen anything wrong."

"Xiaoqiu..."

Yang Xiuxian bent down and patted his shoulder.

Qiu Zijin raised his head reflexively, and saw Yang Qianhu's neat eight-pack abdominal muscles and an indescribable part below him, coming into his eyes through the thin satin trousers.

"Ah! 'A gentleman's self-cultivation is also to straighten his heart inside and straighten his content outside.' Put it on quickly, put it on quickly..."

As he said that, he squatted down like a duck and turned his back, chanting sutras in his mouth like he kept saying, "'A gentleman hides his weapon in his body, but when he moves, he sends it out'... No, no, I'm talking nonsense..."

Yang Xiuxian straightened up dumbfounded, and looked back to see that Wanda was almost dressed, so he simply folded back, picked up his unlined garment, and threw it over his shoulder.

"I'll go out for a walk, you guys talk about it yourself."

After all, I went into the room to put on my coat.

Wanda nodded with blushing cheeks, jumped off the couch, messed up her shoes, walked to Qiu Zijin who was still squatting and chanting sutras, and patted Xiao Qiu on the shoulder.

"Stop reading, everyone is leaving."

He thought to himself that this would be all right, the first time he was forced to "come out" was actually Xiaoqiu.

This poor kid was almost cuckolded before, but he was hit so hard today, and he didn't know if he could bear it or not.

Qiu Zijin put down his hands covering his eyes, raised his head, and looked at Wanda, who still had a face full of spring, peach blossoms, and autumn eyes, and stretched out his trembling hands...

"Clothes! Pull them up!"

Wanda lowered her head, looked at her chest that had been planted with a circle of plum blossoms, laughed "hehe" twice, and closed her collar.

However, it was too hot this day, so he hesitated for a while, and still made a small opening to let in the wind.

"Okay, look up, it's okay."

As Wanda said, he pulled his shoes and walked back to the bamboo couch, and brought back the coffee table that he had pushed aside just now.He took out an unused small cup and poured a cup of herbal tea.

"Come on, drink some water and calm down."

He waved to Qiu Zijin like a puppy.

Qiu Zijin raised his head in doubt, and saw that Wanda had finally put on his clothes neatly, although his hair was messed up and slanted out.

But he couldn't care about these anymore, walked to the coffee table with messy steps, picked up the teacup, and poured it into his mouth.

After drinking a cup of herbal tea, Qiu Zijin still thinks it's not enough.

He simply picked up the teapot and poured it into his belly with "tons and tons" at the mouth of the teapot. Wanda felt distressed when he saw it - the child seemed to be greatly stimulated this time.

Have you ever seen this little scholar so flustered?

After almost drinking a pot of cold water, Qiu Zijin finally calmed down a little. He sat on the bamboo couch where Yang Xiuxian had just been lying on, and wiped the water droplets on his lips with the back of his hand.

Wanda also sat down, lowered her head in embarrassment, and started playing with her belt.

"you……"

"right……"

"Really?"

"of course."

"when?"

"At the beginning of the year..."

After the conversation in minimalist mode, both of them were speechless.

One looks at the large water tank full of lotus flowers on the left side of the yard, and the other looks at several old plum trees that have not bloomed in the corridor on the right side of the yard.

"You two... are both men."

Qiu Zijin turned his head, just as Wanda also turned his head away.

"I don't like women in the first place. It's not just right."

Wanda tried to scratch his tangled hair, but after realizing that it was impossible to save, she put down her hand resentfully.

"Inheriting the family..."

"There is my brother."

Although Wantong Wantong, shit doesn't work.

But Brother Wan and the child in his concubine's womb at least relieved Wanda from the pressure of inheriting incense.Calculating the time, the concubine of the Wan family should have given birth, but she will suffer from her sister-in-law in the future.

"Then Master Yang's family..."

"He has a younger brother. Bastards don't pay much attention."

"What about the empress and His Majesty...?"

Qiu Zijin finally got to the point.

This is also something that has been bothering Wanda recently.

After he returned to Beijing this time, he was full of plans, and his sister and brother-in-law would definitely marry him.

Although he had already made a desperate fight and planned to be with Guang Huai no matter what, Guang Huai also expressed that he would advance and retreat with him.

But my sister's side is really... dizzying.

"How about 'Bitter Trick'?"

Although Qiu Zijin was hit repeatedly today, he was greatly favored by Wanda this time, and he wanted to find a way to repay him.

Today's spring night visit was originally to thank Wanda for his "righteous deed" of "sacrificing his life to blow up the cesspit" for him today.

Since you want to repay, let's repay thoroughly.

"'Bitter tricks'? How 'bitter' is it?"

Wanda blinked and moved her head closer.

The two young men murmured together, and the night wind finally cooled down, causing Wanda to shrink her bare ankles that were constantly dangling under the bamboo couch.

After listening to Qiu Zijin's "bitter trick", Wanda shook his head with emotion, and reached out to pat Qiu Zijin's shoulder.

"When the scholars become bad, they are really 'bad'."

"It's just a matter of making the most of the situation."

Qiu Zijin blinked his phoenix eyes, his sly expression was like that of a lively little fox.

The two had calculated everything, and the sky was about to dawn.

Qiu Zijin yawned, and was about to go back to the study next door to take a nap, and he had to get up early to handle the case.

Wanda also stretched exhaustedly.

"grown ups……"

Walking in front of the hanging flower gate at the entrance of the courtyard, Qiu Zijin suddenly turned around, looked at Wanda who was already sleepy, and asked in a low voice.

"Are you and...Master Yang together, are you happy?"

Wanda was taken aback.

"Are you happy?"

Qiu Zijin looked at him with almost pleading eyes.

Maybe he didn't even know what kind of answer he was expecting.

"With a lover, do happy things, do you say you are happy?"

Wanda crossed her legs on the bamboo couch, looked at the white light gradually emerging from the sky, thought for a while, raised her head and said with a smile, "Even if you really die at this moment, your life is not in vain!"

The height of the court, the distance of the rivers and lakes, and the love of the world have all been experienced.

Although the time was short, at least he was much happier than his previous life.

Qiu Zijin looked at the smile at the corner of his mouth, undisguised complacency in his big eyes, his eyes suddenly turned red, and a rush of heat surged into his throat.

He wanted to say something, but he couldn't say anything, he just pursed his lips and nodded continuously.

With three steps and three shakes, he walked out of the courtyard of Zixu Pavilion as if he was drunk. At first, Qiu Zijin turned his head back from time to time.

But the more he walked, the more slowly he straightened up.

In the end, he almost strode into the study of Wenda Yuan where he lived.

In an instant, the east is white.

Eunuch Liang Fangliang has not figured out until now that he slept soundly in the cabin and waited to reach Fuliang County, and then turned back to the Imperial Equipment Factory, why the boat was suddenly intercepted at Jiangkou.

You must know that he was sitting on an official ship, even the Jiang bandits on the Yangtze River and Dongting Lake would not dare to attack the official ship.

Eunuch Liang, who was sleepy and staring, was held up by his neck. Just as he was about to swear, he received two hot slaps on the cheeks, which made his eyes stare.

Then, Eunuch Liang, who was only wearing his underwear, was dragged to the deck.The knee was kicked hard, and the whole person knelt down on the wet floor with a "plop".

Eunuch Liang couldn't help but shuddered in the cool breeze of the river in the early morning. He looked in horror at the big knife stretched across his neck and the pair of black official boots in front of the knife.

Jin Yiwei's official boots.

Eunuch Liang's face suddenly changed.

Looking up along the official boots, I saw a bright flying fish suit. Reflected by the rising sun on the river, the flying scales seemed to rise from the cloth and go straight to the sky.

"Yang...Master Yang..."

As a servant who has been in the imperial horse prison in the capital for many years, and also participated in the investigation of Jinyiwei with Dongchang, how could he not know this evil star who is in the limelight in Beijing.

"My lord, why is my lord here?"

Eunuch Liang was still a little confused about the situation, he looked at Yang Xiuxian, who looked worried, and a group of Jinyiwei school captains behind him who were staring at him and asked blankly.

"Is that Liang Fang, the eunuch who supervises the Fuliang County Imperial Ware Factory in Raozhou?"

Yang Xiuxian looked at him from top to bottom, the threat in his tone made Liang Fang's hairs stand on end.

After all, he had worked in Dongchang, and knew the procedures of Jin Yiwei and Dongchang when they recruited people, and he secretly screamed in his heart that the big thing was not good.Could it be that just as soon as he left the capital, something serious happened there, and these Jinyiwei people came here specially to arrest him?

"It's the slave..."

"You colluded with Uncle Qing Yun to resell the imperial wares of the official kiln, and used the things for the imperial use to trap His Royal Highness Chongwang into injustice. You cheated Miss Rong of Rongbao Lou, and kidnapped Yuan Shi, a woman from a good family. Mr. Siwandawan, can you plead guilty one by one?"

As Yang Xiuxian said, he raised the big knife on Liang Fang's neck with his hand.

The silver-white blade was pressed against the main artery in Liang Fang's neck, and as long as he moved his fingers slightly, this young eunuch who was accustomed to smooth talk could be killed on the spot.

Mrs. Liang listened to Yang Xiuxian quickly report her so-called "crime", the more she listened, the more frightened she became.

It never occurred to him that all the things he had done in the past two years were under Jin Yiwei's control.

Obviously nothing happened before I left.

No, it happened, but he quickly put it out, didn't he?

Liang Fang, who was full of fear, was stunned when he heard the last sentence "Murder Master Wandawan, Fusi, North Town of Jinyiwei".

"No! No! No slaves."

He doesn't know how much evidence the Jin Yiwei have for the previous things, but this last one is completely "creating something out of nothing"!

Murder Master Wan?

He wouldn't dare to give him ten guts, but he is the most beloved younger brother of Concubine Wan Gui, the hottest celebrity in front of His Majesty, how dare he treat him...

Even when he was drinking and listening to operas with Uncle Qingyun Zhoushou before, he had heard that this uncle was very dissatisfied with the newly promoted "Uncle Xiaoguo" of the Wan family, and even mentioned in his words that he thought of treating him unfavorable.

But Liang Fang herself, as a servant of the royal family, even if she had the guts of a leopard, she would never dare to have such thoughts for her master!

The young eunuch raised his pale face, the two red scars left by the heavy blow just now made him look like a clown.

"No, I don't dare, I absolutely dare not..."

"Don't admit it? Look at the knife!"

Yang Xiuxian swung his knife angrily.

Liang Fang only felt a chill on the top of his head, and his limbs trembled in fright, thinking that he was going to die now.After waiting for a while, Liang Fang opened his eyes and looked down, only to see that the bun on top of his head was split by a knife, and the bun fell to the ground.

He reached out and touched the smooth scalp on the top of his head.

Just a little bit, his head was about to be separated from the body just like this bun.

"beat."

Yang Xiuxian said coldly.Holding a flower in her hand, sheathed the knife.

Jin Yiwei, who was originally standing behind him, stepped forward, and the two took turns hitting Eunuch Liang's face repeatedly with the back of the scabbard.

But after several efforts, Eunuch Liang's entire face was swollen like a pig's head, and a mouthful of teeth and blood fell out one after another.

Until he was knocked out and "moved" into the warehouse at the bottom of the cabin of the official ship, eunuch Liang didn't understand what happened in this short period of time, and why he suffered such an "indiscriminate disaster".

Watching the pigeon released by Jin Yiwei flutter its wings, rise into the air, and fly towards the north at high speed.

Yang Xiuxian turned his head, looked at the torrential river, jumped onto the sampan, and jumped onto another official ship where Wanda was.

Everyone involved in the case of the disappearance of kiln-transformed porcelain from Yuqichang.Those from the Qiu family, the Yuan family, the Rong family, and He Langzhong, the pottery supervisor of the Imperial Ware Factory, were all brought onto this official ship, waiting to be sent back to Beijing.

This time they sailed day and night, no matter how congested the river was, they must reach the capital within ten days.

Walking into Wanda's bedroom, Yang Xiuxian walked to the side of the bed, looked at the little lover who had slept until he was bleeding everywhere, and gently pushed his shoulder.

"Don't sleep, let me tell you some good news - Eunuch Liang has been captured by us."

"Don't... If you catch it, you will catch it. I didn't sleep almost all night yesterday, and I only squinted for a while this morning. Let me sleep for a while."

Wanda pulled the quilt over her head and started playing tricks.

Yang Xiuxian pulled the quilt off dumbfounded.

"Eunuch Liang has been taken into custody now. We have to think about what to say after the capital, so that he can be convicted. Let His Majesty and Your Majesty trust us completely. Don't sleep, be good..."

Wanda pursed her lips, straightened up helplessly, leaned her back against the pillow, and knit her two eyebrows together.

"One more bad news for you."

Yang Xiuxian went to the window and wet the towel hanging on the towel rack.

"what?"

Wanda took the veil and slowly wiped her face.

"The Jinyi guard who assassinated Miss Rong yesterday...is dead."

Wanda looked at him blankly, the handkerchief in his hand was twisted into a piece.

Yang Xiuxian's eyes were also uncertain.

Jinyiwei's yamen is not monolithic, at least Uncle Qing Yun himself has the official title of Jinyiwei Qianhu.

It's easy to put a confidant or two in it.

Just last night, after Qiu Zijin interrupted their "good deed", Yang Xiuxian, bored, stopped by the prison where Miss Rong and Qiu's mother were detained by the county government.

Looking at it, he saved Miss Rong who was almost strangled to death.

A man in night clothes took advantage of the darkness and entered the prison, trying to seal her mouth completely.

This person's skills are extremely good, and he was not noticed all the way in, and he actually got in while he was stuck on the shift of Jin Yiwei.

If it weren't for Yang Xiuxian's sudden whim to go to the prison to investigate, his assassination mission might have been really successful.

Yang Xiuxian knocked off the cloth strips of the opponent's mask during the fight with that person, and was shocked to find that this person was actually a strongman of Jinyiwei, and he followed him and Wanda to handle the case all the way, never showing any flaws.

The fight alarmed the other Jinyi guards in the county prison, and they all showed surprised expressions when they saw that the assassin who was subdued by their immediate superiors was actually his colleague.

Yang Xiuxian didn't have time to comfort the terrified Miss Rong, so he borrowed the torture chamber of the county government and personally tortured the traitor for a while.

The other party finally confessed that he won Uncle Qingyun's Zhoushou birthday. To be precise, he got the secret order from the current Empress Dowager Zhou to monitor Master Wan's actions along the way.

When necessary, get rid of all those who threaten Uncle Qing Yun or the Queen Mother.

Including Master Wan.

Early this morning, Jin Yiwei, who was in charge of guarding the execution room, came to report that this man committed suicide by biting his tongue secretly while they were not paying attention.Compared to going back to the capital and living in the imperial prison but not dying, it is better to give yourself a good time here.

Yang Xiuxian looked at the corpse of his colleague dragged out with mixed emotions, and asked his subordinates to clean it up.

Why commit suicide?

The mission failed and the identity was discovered, which was just one of the reasons.

It is more likely that there is more than one person like him in Jinyiwei Yamen.

Don't say it's Jin Yiwei whose composition is complicated, anyone can get in.Even in Dongchang, there are eunuchs representing different forces fighting in it.

Among the people they followed all the way, how many belonged to the Queen Mother Zhou, and how many belonged to other forces?

No one knows.

This is just one death.

What about the rest?

As the emperor's biological mother, the Empress Dowager Zhou is extremely powerful, and there is nothing in this world that she dare not do.

After all, she is the woman who dared to give the imperial ceramics specially made for the eldest son of the emperor to her youngest son after wiping off the inscription on the bottom.

What is it to kill the younger brother of a concubine who doesn't like him after doing all kinds of "offending" things like this?

"After returning to Beijing, it seems that Xiaoqiu is not the only one who wants to 'clean up the door'. Beizhen Fusi should also rectify and rectify, to see how many mice are hiding."

Yang Xiuxian looked at Wanda and said in a low voice.

Wanda lowered his head, remembering what Qiu Zijin said to him last night.

"If you don't break it, you can't build it, just plan it," Qiu Zijin said.

For the freedom of the rest of his life, for his marriage not to be manipulated by others, he was willing to die in such a miserable situation like Qiu Zijin.

After Yang Xiuxian left the cabin, Wanda walked to the hanger where the clothes were hanging, and took down an item from a close-fitting bag.

The small golden firecracker was a weapon given to him by the emperor's brother-in-law at the end of the year before last for self-defense.

It is said to be for self-defense, but from Guangxi to Jiangnan, he has experienced so many times on the verge of life and death, but he has never used it once.

After all, he was afraid.

Even today, everyone knows that Mr. Xiao Wan of Beizhen Fusi has countless lives in his hands, and he is a veritable "Living King of Hades", but Wanda has never actually personally killed anyone.

Although he has long accepted his identity as Jinyiwei, as a modern person 600 years later, he is an ordinary person who is in awe of life.

He never, nor dared to use any weapon to harm anyone's life.

Even in life and death.

Wanda took out the gun and licked her dry lips nervously.

He closed his eyes tremblingly, and touched his waist.

"I'm sorry, Guanghuai..."

he said in a low voice.

Then the trigger was pulled.

A loud noise startled Jiangou on the shore.

Qiu Zijin, who was in the next room, flipping through the ledger found in Eunuch Liang's room, suddenly raised his head.

"Oh!"

Thousands of miles away from Zhaode Palace in the Forbidden City, Wan Zhen'er looked at the porcelain cup that fell at her feet by accident, and let out an exclamation.

Wang Zhi, who was lying on the bed playing with the little prince, raised his head, and when he heard a thunder from the roof, he hurriedly covered the little prince's ears with his hands, for fear that he would be startled by the sound of thunder.

"It's changed."

Qin Chang stood under the red eaves, looked at the dark clouds in the sky, and said in a low voice.
