After the girl left, Ji Qingzhou walked towards the courtyard.

The wound on his body hurt so much that he almost fainted at the beginning, and every step he took would feel a tearing pain, but later on the pain became so severe that he became a little numb instead.Ji Qingzhou avoided the guards watching the night and finally walked back to the small courtyard. As soon as he entered the door, he lost his strength and almost fell to the ground.

"Why did you come back so late?" Tu Dayou's voice came from the side, and Ji Qingzhou felt his arms lighten, and Tu Dayou supported him.Ji Qingzhou wanted to cover it up, but at this moment he had no strength to be brave, so he leaned half of his body weight on Tu Dayou.

"You're still alive..." Ji Qingzhou said hoarsely.

"You guessed right, fortunately I didn't do anything." Tu Dayou helped Ji Qingzhou to walk in, and whispered: "The prince is really cautious, he didn't eat a bite of the palace banquet, and besides him After the palace banquet, his relatives inspected the wine glass and food in front of him."

If Tuda had made a move, the regent would be unscathed, but his life would definitely be lost.

Tu Dayou helped Ji Qingzhou back to the room. After he lit the candle, he realized that Ji Qingzhou's face was completely pale, his clothes were torn, and his white inner garment was stained with blood. Very shocking.

"Are you injured?" Tu Da asked nervously.

"Where's Master?" Ji Qingzhou reached out to support the edge of the table, but didn't dare to sit down.The place where he was injured was a little embarrassed, I'm afraid he didn't dare to sit for a while.

"Master has already rested." Tu Dayou said, "Wait for me for a while, I will find an imperial physician."

Although the servants in the palace are generally not qualified to see the imperial physician, but Tu Dayou is the apprentice of Director Yao after all, and he is very popular and has made many friends. It is not difficult to find an imperial physician.

Unexpectedly, Ji Qingzhou grabbed him and said in a hoarse voice: "No one should know about my injury. If it gets out, I will die." Tu Dayou was startled when he heard the words, and Ji Qingzhou said again: " Please Brother Dayou, help me get some clean clothes, I need to take a shower first."

Tu Dayou looked simple and honest, but he was not a brainless person. He didn't ask any questions immediately. He first helped Ji Qingzhou find a clean coat, then went to the bathroom to get hot water, and then helped Ji Qingzhou to the bathroom .

"You take a bath first, I have some medicine in my room, I will find some cloth towels to help you bandage the wound later." Tu Dayou said.

"Thank you." Ji Qingzhou avoided Tu Dayou's gaze, and added: "But I probably won't need it."

Tuda didn't think too much about it for a while, and when he came back after finding the ointment and cloth towel, his eyes fell on Ji Qingzhou's clothes, and then he realized something.Although he is not very old, he has spent a lot of time in the palace and has seen and heard a lot of things.Just looking at the badly torn clothes and the location of the blood stains, and thinking about Ji Qingzhou's appearance of sweating with pain when he lifted his feet just now when he was walking, he guessed about it.

"You... who did this?" Tu Dayou frowned.

"You'd better not know." Ji Qingzhou's hoarse voice came through the dense water vapor, with a bit of heart-wrenching sense of powerlessness, "This matter is all due to my carelessness, no wonder who."

Tu Dayou didn't ask any more questions, he took out the blood-stained clothes and stuffed them into the stove, and didn't go back until the clothes were all burned.Ji Qingzhou has finished bathing now, and put on a clean underwear.It's just that the collar of the clothes there is very low, Tu Dayou looked up and could see the mottled red marks hidden inside the collar.

"This matter...is it all over?" Tu Dayou said angrily, turning his eyes away.

Ji Qingzhou smiled wryly, and said, "I hope that's the way to go, I'm afraid it's not that easy."

Tu Dayou's complexion changed when he heard the words, and he asked: "What do you want to do? Tell me, you saved my life today, even if I risk it all, I will take it out on your behalf."

"That person is not something you and I can offend." Ji Qingzhou said.

Tuda was taken aback, and asked Ji Qingzhou to hold his shoulders, while he leaned over and put on shoes and socks for Ji Qingzhou.

"If you want, do me a favor." Ji Qingzhou said.

Tu Dayou looked at the boy and said, "Say it."

The young man narrowed his eyes slightly, and said in a low voice, "Master has an apprentice named Gao Liang, do you know him?"

Tu Dayou was startled when he heard the words, and said: "Very familiar, this kid is quite smart and energetic, but he is not practical, so the master punished him to go to Fengxian Pavilion to guard."

"Help me find him." Ji Qingzhou raised his foot and wanted to move forward, but accidentally pulled the wound, and the pain made cold sweat break out on his forehead.Then he suppressed the pain, and whispered in Tu Dayou's ear, and he was not relieved until Tu Da nodded his head.

Although Tu Dayou was worried about him, he knew that the matter could not be delayed, so he took out a small porcelain pot and handed it to Ji Qingzhou, and trotted out of the courtyard.

After he left, Ji Qingzhou opened the small jar to take a look, only to find that what Tuda gave him was a jar of wound medicine.

Meanwhile, the Regent's House.

Dong Dong knelt on one knee outside the screen, a bean-sized drop of cold sweat dripping from the corner of his forehead.

He is the most useful entourage of Prince Regent Li Zhan, and has always been highly regarded.

The Prince Regent attended the palace banquet tonight, and he spent a lot of time in order not to make any mistakes. Fortunately, everything went well in the end, and there were no accidents that should not have happened.I just didn't expect the biggest omission to happen after the palace banquet...

The Prince Regent had a very close relationship with the late emperor. After the late emperor passed away, he often went to Fengxian Pavilion to remember him.And at this time, the Prince Regent likes to be alone and doesn't like to let his relatives follow him.If it was the past, even if Dong Dong didn't follow in, he would probably wait outside the Fengxian Pavilion, but tonight he was delayed for a while because of other things.

By the time he found Fengxian Pavilion, it was already too late...

"How's the investigation?" The man's cold voice came from inside the screen, and he couldn't hear his emotions for a while.

Dong Dong replied: "My lord, the medicine is mixed with the incense sticks, and the weight is very large. As long as the incense sticks are lit and you don't leave immediately, no matter how strong the willpower is, it is impossible to hold on."

"Hiss..." There was a barely audible sound of breathing from the people inside the screen.

Dong Dong hurriedly asked after hearing the words: "My lord is injured, let the doctor take a look!"

"Go and do what you should do first." Li Zhan said coldly.

"The subordinates have arranged for someone to find the servant who is on duty in Fengxian Pavilion today. After he is found, he will be tortured severely, and he will definitely tell the person behind the scenes!" Dong Dong said.

Li Zhan behind the screen froze for a moment when he heard the words, thinking of something.He looked down at the criss-cross scratches on his body, took the medicine and sprinkled it lightly on the bloody wound, and the sharp pain suddenly hit him, which made him think of some things that he had to put away with great difficulty. screen.

The boy's face was hidden in the darkness from the beginning to the end, but the other's heartbeat, panting/breathing, and even the temperature of his body seemed to be seared deep in his memory, and would pop up suddenly.

"Don't say anything about it. If you find someone, bring them here to see me." Li Zhan said coldly.

He wanted to see what kind of person had the guts to plot against him!

On the other side, the guards of the palace quickly found Gao Liang's head.

However, when they came to the door, they didn't realize that Tu Dayou was hiding in the dark and watching all this.

After the sorghum was quietly taken away, Tu Dayou hurried back to the courtyard.

Ji Qingzhou was probably too weak, and fell asleep on the couch.

Tu Dayou saw that the young man looked very tired, he didn't have the heart to wake him up, but he was afraid of delaying important matters and causing the young man's death, so he had to harden his heart and wake him up.

"Brother Dayou?" The young man opened his eyes, and there was a trace of bewilderment in his eyes.

Tu Dayou said in a low voice: "I've done everything you told me."

"I'm sorry." Ji Qingzhou said.

"But..." Tu Dayou said, "Not long after I came out, I saw sorghum being taken away...you..."

Tu Dayou seemed a little hesitant, but finally said: "Is that person... the prince?"

Ji Qingzhou was startled when he heard the words, and then realized that the person who took the sorghum must be someone from the palace. Since Tu Dayou saw it, how could he not guess it?

"There's no reason for that!" Tuda knew that he had guessed right when he saw the young man's expression, and couldn't help but said, "Bird/beast! If I had known, I might as well have poisoned him to death!"

Ji Qingzhou reached out to cover Tu Dayou's mouth, accidentally pulled the wound, and gasped in pain.Seeing this, Tu Dayou quickly supported him and said, "You are injured, don't move."

"Brother Dayou, you must remember that the matter at the palace banquet must not be mentioned again." Ji Qingzhou said: "Otherwise, neither the person who ordered you behind nor the regent will spare you."

Tu Dayou nodded hurriedly when he heard the words, he is not a reckless person, he was just saved by Ji Qingzhou today, and then he saw the young man being treated like this by the regent, and he felt angry, so he made a slip of the tongue.

"Then... can you get through this time safely?" Tu Dayou asked.

"I can only gamble." The young man said weakly: "If the prince can calm down and not get angry because of this small calculation, I will have a little leeway. If he is so angry, he would rather dig three feet into the ground." I also want to find out the truth, I'm afraid I don't know if I can see the sun tomorrow."

Tu Dayou immediately became sad when he heard the words, but he had no other choice.

At this moment, he realized again how powerless he was as a little servant in this deep palace.

On the other side, Gao Liang was blindfolded and taken to the Regent's Palace.

When Li Zhan heard Dong Dong's report, his hand which was dealing with the wound couldn't help shaking, and he couldn't help frowning due to the pain.

Then he put on his outer robe and got up to go out, and glanced at the little waiter in the courtyard whose hands were bound and thrown on the ground.

With just one glance, Li Zhan said coldly, "It's not him."

Dong Dong was startled when he heard the words, he couldn't help wondering, he thought to himself that his lord has piercing eyes, and with just one glance, he can recognize this little servant is the person they are looking for?
