The next day Tang Ke went to the residence of Geng Xiaobo's father, Geng Chunhuai, and found that the private house was sealed by the government, so he had to put aside the plan to take Geng Xiaobo to accompany Zhu Wenzhen for the time being, and went to Wu's Printing Bureau to pick up the goods.

Tang Ke's original plan was to ask the brothers of the Chanyi Sect to help sell his updates to resellers on the black market, and the brothers readily agreed.

In this palace change, Chanyizong tried their best to help Zhu Wenzhen, one because the prince deliberately dragged the Zongmen into trouble in the case of the Zhang Family Tea House, and the other because Zhu Wenzhen helped the Zongmen before.

It was just beyond Tang Ke's expectation that his original group of old readers who bought books at the back gate of King Jing's Mansion spontaneously organized to help him sell updated books despite the government's suppression.

Ye Zi was setting up a stall to help Tang Ke sell small books when she saw Geng Xiaobo standing on the street corner outside Qifeng Bookstore.

Geng Xiaobo was dressed in the clothes of ordinary people, leaning against the tree with a knife in his hand, with a dignified expression, looking at Ye Zi and the small bookstall of several friends.

Seeing that Ye Zi was also looking at him, their eyes briefly met, Geng Xiaobo looked away in embarrassment, and stopped looking at her.

Ye Zi asked her friend to help her look at the small bookstall for a while, and went up to block Geng Xiaobo, "Hello, is that you?"

Geng Xiaobo looked at Ye Zi in a daze, not knowing how to answer her question.

Ye Zi laughed, "My name is Wang Xiaoye."

"Geng Xiaobo."

Ye Zi nodded, "Our names match very well," she stepped forward and put her arms around Geng Xiaobo's shoulders, "Brother Xiao Ke and I are in the same family, and Brother Xiao Ke and his Ruyi Xiaolang are in the same family. Jun and you are a family, then pass it down, we are a family, don't you think?"

Ye Zi was a head shorter than Geng Xiaobo, when he hugged Geng Xiaobo, Geng Xiaobo could only bend down to accommodate her with great effort, listening to Ye Zi's familiar words, Geng Xiaobo became more and more at a loss as to how to answer, so he could only speak stiffly. laugh.

Ye Zi patted her chest and said, "Family, have you encountered any difficulties? If you have any difficulties, just tell your sister Ye Zi, and I will help you."

Geng Xiaobo was a little dissatisfied with the title "Sister Ye Zi", but he didn't correct her, and directly talked about his difficulties, "Can you help me contact Mr. Xiaoke?"

Ye Zi shook his head, "Of course we can't get in touch. He is an important wanted criminal now, so how can we get in touch casually."

Geng Xiaobo was disappointed, and pushed Ye Zi's arm off his shoulder, just about to say thank you and leave, when Ye Ye whispered in his ear: "But you are family, I can help you contact Xiao Ke Brother’s matchmaker’s matchmaker’s matchmaker, you can just find them all the way.”

In the back hall of the Ministry of Justice, Gu Ting was sitting in the study, holding in his hand a pamphlet that had been widely circulated in the capital. On the pamphlet was the title "The Prince's Path of No Return" and the subtitle "Part [-]: Prison Factory" .

This pamphlet was sent to Gu Ting until now, in just half a day, only dozens of pages, he has turned it back and forth no less than a hundred times.

Xiao Ke has a great writing ability, and he clearly portrays every character involved in the novel with very concise words.

When ordinary people read this article, they would only lament that the prince is vicious and has done many evil things, but when Gu Ting read it, what he saw between the lines was all evidence of accusing the prince of treason.

The Ministry of Punishment had more or less found some of these evidences before, but they were all glimpses of the leopard, and it was still unable to sort out the whole picture of the incident.

Gu Ting and Wang Che argued for a long time whether it was the crown prince who falsely accused King Jing of rebellion, or King Jing accused the prince of treason.

The evidence obtained by the Ministry of Criminal Justice before is more like scattered leaves, and this novel is like the branches connecting the leaves. If you follow the branches, you will find the rotten roots that Gu Ting can hardly ignore.

What is the relationship between Xiao Ke and King Jing, Gu Ting is very clear.

Reason told him that the content and standpoint of this novel were very problematic, but after reading this book over and over again, Gu Ting had an increasingly strong urge to uproot all the prince's henchmen involved in the article.

Gu Ting closed the booklet, took a long sigh, picked up the tea cup at hand and poured the cold tea into his stomach, closed his eyes, tried to calm himself down, and tried to think about the case from a neutral perspective.

Wang Che stood at the door of the prison of the Ministry of Criminal Justice, staring at the two people who were tied up on the ground, with a gloomy expression.

Both of them were middle-level and high-level officials in the prison factory, and they were tied up and thrown outside the main entrance of the Ministry of Justice early this morning.

Wang Che held two pieces of paper in his hand, which were the confessions drawn by the two prison factory officials who were tied up. They explained in detail how they helped the prince with his work.

And at the bottom corner of the first statement, there is a line of very small but extremely glaring words:

[One member of the prison factory princeling √, today's progress: 5.00%]

In the bottom corner of the second confession, similar words were written in the same font:

[Two princelings in the prison factory √, today's progress: [-]%]

Looking at the two lines of small characters, Wang Che thought of his previous encounter with Mr. Xiao Ke who wore a black mask, and he didn't know whether to laugh or be annoyed at this moment.

A subordinate stepped forward and asked Wang Che in a low voice what to do.

Wang Che said: "Throw the two of them into the cell for trial first, and strengthen the guards at all the entrances and exits of the Criminal Department. He will send someone over again. This time, I must catch him!"

The subordinate responded yes and quickly retreated.

After about three sticks of incense, the subordinates turned back, somewhat dejectedly saying that they had sent additional manpower but still failed to catch the shameful person, and brought another person who was tied up by five flowers, that person was none other than the eunuch Zhong Zhong .

As expected, there was a line of similar small characters written under Guan Zhong’s confession:

[Three members of the prison factory princeling √, today's progress: 15.00%]

It's just different from the previous two times, in addition to the confession this time, there is an extra note.

Looking at the note, Wang Che was stunned for a moment, and said angrily, "Throw him into the cell, and I'll go find Mr. Gu."

In the back hall study, Wang Che saw Gu Ting who was sitting at the table staring at the small books on the table in a daze, and told Gu Ting about the three people who were thrown over in the morning.

Hearing the names of those three people, Gu Ting couldn't help but opened the little booklet from the table again, and confirmed that the order in which the three people were sent was strictly in accordance with the order of appearance of the characters in this little booklet... …

Gu Ting glanced at Wang Che coldly, "Why didn't you report it before?"

Wang Che replied respectfully: "I originally wanted to interrogate the two people who were sent here, and I will present it to you for a decision after I have the preliminary results."

Gu Ting nodded, and asked again: "Then why do you have to report in advance now?"

Wang Che hesitated for a moment, then handed the small note in front of Gu Ting.

Gu Ting took the small note and saw the content clearly, his face was a little distorted.

There was only one sentence written on it:

[Master Gu, stop reading novels in the study alone, let's do something serious! 】

The author has something to say: Happy Chinese Valentine's Day
