[Red Mansion] Sir, I'm a rough man

That night, Emperor Qian stayed up all night, officers and soldiers from Dali Temple, the Ministry of Punishment, and the Military Division of the Five Cities stayed up all night, some important figures in the palace stayed up all night, and Zhao Yi stayed up all night.

The common people were not at peace either. They were frightened to death by the officers and soldiers who broke in in the middle of the night. The knives were unsheathed and the arrows were strung. Cut off the arrow, nothing.

The assassin who was seriously injured and whose life was said to be hanging by a thread seemed to have disappeared out of thin air.

After searching all night, no one dared to mention the word "give up". The search continued until dawn. The Lantern Festival, which everyone was looking forward to, came amidst the chaos.

But the source of all this, the eldest son's mansion, is actually a little quieter than usual. Except for temporarily moving from the main courtyard to the side courtyard, Zhao Yi's life is no different from usual, practicing calligraphy, reading, boxing... …and practice walking.

Being supported by two guards, one from the left and the other from the right, he took a "difficult" step.

After walking for a while, during the break, Zhang Youshi stepped forward and said with a smile: "His Royal Highness has improved faster than I expected. If this continues, His Highness will be able to move freely within half a month."

The people on the side hurriedly followed to congratulate.

Zhao Yi smiled lightly, and said, "It may not be a good thing if your legs get better."

The surroundings were suddenly silent: Yes, if His Highness's leg hadn't recovered soon, why did yesterday's calamity come about?

Looking back at the tragedy of last night, they are now a little scared. Such an assassin barely escaped the first time, the second time, and the third time?

Can they keep this good luck forever?

Zhao Yi put down the teacup in his hand, looked at Zhang Youshi, and said, "Mr. Zhang, do you have something to say?"

Zhang Youshi Hao Ran said: "It's a small matter."

He continued: "His Highness was attacked last night, and many people in Beijing sent gifts to His Highness to scare him, but His Highness had something to say first, so they all refused at the concierge, and some people went to the old man... "

After a pause, he said again: "That's all for the others, but Your Highness knows that the old man was recommended by the Ningguo Mansion, so it's really inconvenient to refuse..."

Zhao Yi's heart beat faster, he clenched his sleeves quietly, and interrupted, "What's the matter? Jia Yizhi brought me a present?" His tone was calm.

Zhang Youshi was a little uneasy. At this time, he really shouldn't bother Zhao Yi with these trivial matters. Zhao Yi didn't want to be annoyed. Ask the boy next to you to come over."

I don't know if it was an illusion, but as soon as these words came out, Zhang Youshi felt that most of the gloom surrounding Zhao Yi's body suddenly dissipated.

Zhao Yi gave a "hmm" and said indifferently: "Since the gentleman spoke, let's see you!"

Since he was able to send a boy to report his safety, it can be seen that he is in a good condition now.

Zhang Youshi was overjoyed and said: "The old man will go and bring him here."

Zhao Yi glanced at Defu, and Defu smiled and said, "How dare you bother Mr. with this kind of thing, just go and invite the younger ones."

Zhang Youshi hurriedly cupped his hands to express his thanks.

Defu is the number one celebrity around Zhao Yi, so he went to invite him in person, which is not a small face.

After a while, Defu led a handsome boy with a smile on his lips to enter the door.

"The little Yuyan has met His Highness."

Zhao Yi said: "Your name is Yu Yan?"

He had seen the two servants next to that man in April and May, but this jade inkstone was very strange to him.

Zhang Youshi looked at Zhao Yi in surprise. The eldest son of the emperor has always been indifferent and unkind. Why did he suddenly become interested in the servant of Ningguo Mansion?

Yuyan smiled and said: "The young one is originally from the Lin family in Jiangnan. He has been a book boy with his master since he was a child. The former son was sent back to Jiangnan to buy things, and he only returned to Beijing last night. I heard that there is a chance to enter the prince's mansion to see the world. The little one snatched this job, and didn't want to meet His Highness again... The little one might have been bragging for a long time when I go back this time."

Zhao Yi was not at all interested in who this Yuyan was, and he asked casually just to break the subject, and to say a few more words, so he listened patiently to what he said, and said, "How is your master?"

Yu Yan smiled and said: "Your Highness, please ask me, everything is fine, master."

Zhao Yi frowned slightly, and asked more carefully: "There was a lot of noise last night, did he sleep well?"

"Of course it's good," Yu Yan said, "To tell you the truth, my master has never had a bad sleep since he was born."

Zhao Yixin said this, but what he wanted to know was not these, he took the gift list from Telford with some irritability, looked at it, and said: "Your master personally ordered you to send these things?"

"Yes."

"What is he doing now?" Zhao Yi said, feeling wrong, and added: "Yesterday I heard that Zhou Kai begged him, saying that he was almost suffocated at home, and begged Father to release his restraint... Should we go out now?"

Yuyan smiled and said: "I don't know if the restraint has been lifted, but my master doesn't like to go out, especially in winter. When the little one came, the master had just had breakfast and was still sleepy. He explained to the little one Just go back to sleep and go back to sleep."

Hearing the words "returning to the cage", most of Zhao Yi's heart was relieved, a smile flashed inadvertently in his eyes, and he was a little annoyed for some reason. He was worried here like ants on a hot pot. That boy is fine. He still wanted to go back to sleep, and asked someone to report his safety, but he didn't give half a word of hints, and he didn't know how the injury was.

Although I was impatient, I didn't dare to ask any more questions, I just said: "Since your master gave you a gift, I can't be stingy... Didn't many people come to deliver medicines a while ago? Pick a few and send them back as a gift, that's it." Looking at Mr. Zhang's face, you can't be less polite, right?"

The second half of the sentence was addressed to Defu, and Defu responded with a smile, but Zhang Youshi hurriedly said that he didn't dare.

Yuyan smiled and said: "That's good, Your Highness doesn't know. Our grandfather suffered from a strange disease when he was a child, and he often couldn't wake up. Later, he was cured by an expert. One of the methods given by the expert is to say nothing. No matter what kind of panacea, but eat vigorously, the more the better...

"Back in the south of the Yangtze River, my grandfather used ginseng as carrots every now and then, which was not enough for Master Lin's salary... Our grandfather's illness was cured just like this."

This is also the truth, but everyone here except Zhao Yi, just took it as a joke, Zhao Yi snorted coldly, and told Telford: "Go and take the medicines in the library to a few carts, especially ginseng, give him all... ...I want to see how he eats it like a carrot!"

Yuyan smiled and thanked Jia on behalf of Jia, took her leave and left.

After Yu Yan left, the only trace of a smile on Zhao Yi's face disappeared, and he said, "Let's come again."

******

At the beginning of night, the Qinzheng Hall had already turned on the lamps, and today people arrived here very neatly, the left minister, the right minister, the ministers, the minister of Dali Temple, the commander of the infantry, as well as the most famous veterans in the court. There are two adult princes who entered the palace to participate in the Lantern Festival banquet.

Shuntian Fu Yin is the smallest official among them.

"You said you wanted to search from house to house, and I agreed; you said you were short of manpower, and I entrusted you with the command of the soldiers and horses of the five cities; you said you were afraid that he would hide in the house of the powerful, and I issued an imperial decree to ask the princes and ministers to cooperate. With you...where are you now?" Emperor Qian yelled angrily, "I ask you, where is the assassin?!"

The commander of the infantry, Wei Hongsheng, the admiral of the nine gates, knelt on the ground with his forehead pressed against the ground, not daring to say a word.

Emperor Qian took a breath and went out, gritted his teeth and said, "Mobilizing tens of thousands of people, you can't even find a seriously injured assassin... I think you, the admiral of the nine sects, have managed to do it!

"Come here, pass the decree, the admiral Wei Hongsheng of the Nine Gates is not doing well, write..."

"Your Majesty!" Wei Hongsheng raised his head violently and interrupted: "I have something to say!"

Emperor Qian said coldly: "Okay, I will give you a chance, say it!"

Wei Hongsheng hesitated for a moment, and said: "I have carefully asked the guards participating in the battle, and according to what they said, the assassin's martial arts are extremely powerful, and none of the guards present is his enemy, and his fingers are slender and white, crystal clear like jade. He is not very old, and his body shape is [-]% similar to that of a person."

Emperor Qian said displeased: "Similar to who? Since there are clues, why didn't you tell them before?"

Wei Hongsheng said: "This is a big matter, I originally wanted to find out the truth and then report..."

Before he finished speaking, he was interrupted impatiently by a veteran: "There's so much nonsense, tell me who it is!"

He is old and senior, and occasionally rely on his old age to sell his old age, and no one cares about him.

Wei Hongsheng glanced around, and said in a deep voice: "This person is... General Weilie of Ningguo Mansion, first-class imperial guard Jia Wan, Jia Yizhi!"

Everyone looked at each other in blank dismay, and the same thought flashed in their hearts: Why is it him again, why is he always there for everything?

The overlord, the loyal prince, the eldest son of the emperor... Now even an assassin suspects him.

It took a while before someone spoke, and it was the old general just now, who taunted: "There are tens of millions of people in the world who are similar in height and shape, and you can be convicted based on this? Fortunately, you are not an official of the Ministry of Punishment, otherwise I don't know how many troubles there will be." Injustice comes."

Wei Hongsheng said: "There are many people with similar physiques, but they have similar physiques and strong martial arts..."

The veteran interrupted: "What's wrong with the high martial arts? It's wrong to be high in martial arts? He made the high martial arts. What kind of logic is this?

"You have descendants, can I say that the widow in the east of the city is pregnant with your child?"

He spoke harshly, but Wei Hongsheng was not annoyed, and said calmly: "If only one man is demoted in the whole world, then the widow's child will naturally only be the child of the subordinate."

The old general choked, there are men with descendants everywhere in the world, but he really didn't know about the young man who played martial arts like Jia, he snorted coldly and said: "You don't know, it's because you are ignorant , does not mean that there is no... I think you just can't catch the assassin, just find someone to take the blame."

That little guy beat the Xiongnu savages to the ground in the Hall of Supreme Harmony, he liked it very much, and was very unhappy when someone poured dirty water on his head.

Wei Hongsheng still said neither humble nor overbearing: "The lower officials are indeed ignorant, but since they know one, they should find out one."

The old general snorted and stopped talking.

Zhao Yi, who had been sitting at the side silently, as if everything in the palace had nothing to do with him, suddenly said coldly, "Master Wei, did you forget that my leg was healed by someone recommended by someone?"

"Your Majesty naturally knows, but..." Wei Hongsheng cupped his hands and said, "Your Highness, please forgive me for speaking bluntly. I'm afraid that Jia Yizhi may not have any good intentions in recommending Zhang Youshi to His Highness."

Zhao Yi sneered.

Wei Hongsheng said: "At the beginning His Majesty asked Jia Yizhi to recommend a famous doctor from the south of the Yangtze River to heal His Highness' leg disease, but who did he recommend?

"As far as I know, that Youshi Zhang is just a down-and-out literati. He once sat in the Feng family of the martial arts general, and has contacts with the Wei family and the Jia family, but he has never heard of his achievements in medicine. Jia Yizhi knows him. Because he had checked the pulse of Qin Shi, the daughter-in-law of the former Wei Lie General Jia Zhen, and said there was no problem, but Qin Shi died of illness within a few days...

"Jia Yizhi recommended this kind of person to His Highness, what sincerity is there? It can be seen that it was just a perfunctory job, but I didn't expect Zhang Youshi to be talented in this, and he actually cured His Highness."

What people said was so hard to refute, Zhao Yi said flatly: "It's just a suspicious person stealing an axe, it's just a villain's heart."

He said again: "Let Yin Chengze come in!"

When Zhao Yi was attacked, Emperor Qian allowed him to bring guards to defend himself in the palace, but he was not qualified to enter the palace. It was an act of arrogance for Zhao Yi to go over Emperor Qian and directly invite people in, but in the current situation, no one would agree. He is serious.

After a while, Yin Chengze came in, and Zhao Yi said coldly, "You told them that the assassin belonged to Jia Yizhi?"

Yin Chengze was slightly stunned, and hurriedly said: "There is absolutely no such thing."

He continued: "Although the assassin's body shape is quite similar to Master Jia's, his martial arts methods are completely different. The assassin's swordsmanship is fast and sharp, making it dizzying for the eyes, but because it is too fast, it lacks in power, while Master Jia's Martial arts, but clean and neat, every move is aimed at the vital point, every shot is either dead or injured...they are definitely not the same person."

Wei Hongsheng said: "In Guard Yin's opinion, who is better in martial arts, Lord Jia or the assassin?"

Yin Chengze pondered for a moment, then smiled wryly: "The martial arts of these two people are higher than that of the lower officials, and the lower officials have never fought against Mr. Jia... However, Mr. Jia's martial arts should be higher."

Wei Hongsheng said: "That's right. It's not difficult for someone with low martial arts to pretend to be someone with high martial arts, but it's not difficult for someone with high martial arts to pretend to be someone with low martial arts."

Seeing that Yin Chengze wanted to defend himself, he said again: "Yin Huwei, you also said that your martial arts are far inferior to him, even if you are pretending, you may not be able to see it, right?"

Yin Chengze was speechless.

The old general finally found a chance to interject, and scolded: "Then he is full, pretending to be low in martial arts and running to assassinate?"

Wei Hongsheng didn't know that he couldn't justify himself, but now the only thing he can hold on to is this straw...

Minister of the Ministry of Punishments stepped forward and said: "Your Majesty, it is useless to argue too much. I think that since Mr. Jia is suspected, you might as well investigate and clear the suspicion earlier, so as not to let the real murderer go."

"My minister agrees."

"minister……"

Emperor Qian raised his hand to interrupt the statement of the ministers below, and said to Wei Hongsheng: "I have ordered civil and military officials, princes and nobles to cooperate with each other. Since you have doubts, you didn't ask?"

Wei Hongsheng said: "I naturally asked, and because I asked, I became more suspicious."

He said: "I went to the Ningguo Mansion earlier, but I didn't see Jia Yizhi. According to the servants, Jia Yizhi has been sleeping soundly since last night, and he didn't get up until dusk to leave the mansion. It is said that he has made an appointment with the Marquis of Yongan." The prince went to see the lantern.

"I found the teahouse they were talking about. The waiter said that Jia Yizhi was in the box. I went in and saw that there was no one there... No one in the shop knew when he left. I asked people to search around, but there was no one there. The trace... I am worried that he may have gone out of the city in disguise at this moment."

The old general muttered in a low voice, "I'm afraid it's another Zhang Han."

This was the case with Zhang Han back then. Everyone was misled by Prince Zhongshun and chased him outside the city for more than half a month. As a result, he died in the lake long ago.

Wei Hongsheng ignored him, knelt down and said, "Jia Yizhi's bedridden daytime is already suspicious, and it is even more unusual to suddenly disappear in a teahouse. Your Majesty, please issue an order to search for Jia Yizhi's whereabouts with all our strength."

Director Liu interjected, "Master Wei may have misunderstood, Guard Jia is lethargic, it's a child's fault, everyone in the palace, including the emperor, knows...he sleeps during the day is the most normal.

"Let's try our best to find Guard Jia, so what if we let the real assassin go?"

Wei Hongsheng said: "There is no conflict between searching for the assassin and looking for Jia Yizhi. Your Majesty, the assassin was seriously injured. If you find Jia Yizhi, you only need to check whether there are any injuries on his body to prove his innocence. He will never be wronged... ..."

Emperor Qian also didn't believe that kid Jia Wan would go to assassinate Zhao Yi, but he just checked the wounds, but it didn't take much trouble. He was about to agree, when a servant came into the palace and said, "He Taiqing, Commander of the Five Cities Soldiers and Horses, , Niu Wenguang, Minister of Honglu Temple, has something important to report."

Everyone was shocked and said, "But the assassin was caught?"

I felt something was wrong again, why did the arrest of the assassin have something to do with Honglu Temple?

The servant said: "Probably not...they still brought Yong'an Houshizi and Jia Shiwei with them."

So everyone was at a loss, Yong'an Hou Shizi Zhou Kai and Jia Wan, no matter their titles and official positions, or their status in the eyes of the emperor, were far above He Taiqing and Niu Wenguang. Where did the word "belt" come from?

Wei Hongsheng's eyes showed disappointment, Jia Wan actually entered the palace at this moment, could it really not be him?

Emperor Qian said: "Xuan."

Everyone's thinking is similar to that of Wei Hongsheng. Originally, Jia Wan was unlikely to be an assassin. It was only due to his similar stature and high martial arts that he attracted suspicion for no reason. There is no rush.

It was He Taiqing and Niu Wenguang who asked to see him, and they were the two who came in. Jia Wan and Zhou Kai were still waiting outside, Emperor Qian said, "What happened?"

He Taiqing was a general, and he spoke rudely and bluntly: "My Majesty, Jia Yizhi, Lord Jia, and Zhou Kai, son of Zhou, beat up the envoys of the Huns."

As soon as he finished speaking, he was glared at by everyone: You don't know that the prince was assassinated and survived?

The whole city is hunting for assassins, don't you know?

Don't you know that Master Wei, who is two ranks older than you, will lose his position for this reason?

Today is the Lantern Festival, don't you know?

Now bring a small matter of a fight to the hall to say, is it an itchy butt?

He Taiqing was startled, and added: "That...was a bit ruthless."

Of course Emperor Qian knew that the beating was a bit ruthless, and he wouldn't come here if the beating was not ruthless, but he was in no mood to listen to He Taiqing's tricks at the moment, and said displeasedly: "Say!"

He Taiqing responded, and said succinctly: "Master Jia and Zhou Shizi were knocked down by the Huns when they were shopping. Seeing that he couldn't beat him, he moved the knife and almost hurt Zhou Shizi, Mr. Jia snatched the knife in a rage, and chopped off the arms of all the Huns who pulled out the knife..."

Emperor Qian frowned: "How many did you chop?"

He Taiqing coughed dryly, and said, "After Mr. Jia chopped one off, the remaining 20 or so got impatient and all drew their knives..."

So chop more than 20?How many people came from the Xiongnu?

Emperor Qian couldn't help but feel dizzy.

He Taiqing hurriedly said: "But King Zuo Xian is fine. At that time, Jia Zheng, a member of the Ministry of Industry, happened to pass by. He saw Mr. Jia fighting and fell off his horse in fright. Mr. Jia hurried over to check, and the minister took the opportunity to separate them. That's why King Zuo Xian escaped unharmed, he was only kicked in the chest, and the minister was already awake when he entered the palace..."

Well, when everyone was discussing whether he was an assassin who was seriously injured and escaped, he ran to fight with others and chopped off the arms of more than 20 Hun envoys, even King Zuoxian was almost spared...

I really want to thank that Yuanwailang, the fall was timely, otherwise the consequences would be unimaginable.

The Prime Minister on the right frowned and said, "King Zuo Xian has seen Guard Jia and knows his skills, so how could he conflict with him?"

He Taiqing sighed: "Lord Jia and Prince Zhou changed clothes, wearing masks..."

Mr. Jia, my son, I really tried my best, and I really can't hide it. You two are lucky!

The monarch and his ministers were speechless together: Well, this is not a matter of saying a word and making a move. This is a deliberate plan to set someone up, right?

Wei Hongsheng's eyes lit up, and he said: "The envoys and guards of the Xiongnu who came to me are all very skilled. Did Jia Yizhi and them also get injured?"

Deliberately provoking, covering up wounds with injuries!
