Ji Xinxue noticed Yu Heng's staring eyes, and stretched out her hand to shake in front of Yu Heng's eyes, "I've already asked Qingyun to invite the imperial physician, why don't you lie down first?"

When Qingyun first heard that Yu Heng was ill, he subconsciously suspected that Qingyun had said the wrong person.

Counting all the people around him, it seems that only Yu Heng is "a hundred evils do not invade". Even Li Jinhuan, who has the highest military value, survives the cold because of wearing single clothes to practice martial arts in the cold winter, but Yu Heng only went to Hanzhuyuan at the beginning because of his relationship with Qi Zhu. Fighting, and the young gentlemen who made the fight also suffer from "sickness".

After a brief moment of stupefaction, Ji Xinxue immediately thought of the hard work Yu Heng had spent on the 'Shangzhou case' these days, and immediately blamed herself very much.

In order to save time, almost everyone in the princess mansion has been in constant motion since they launched an attack on the magistrate of Anye and the governor of Shangzhou through the sugar banquet. Yu Heng always tried his best considering that he had just been plotted against and had not fully recovered. Do more things, let him have room to rest.

Every time there was an urgent matter and had to be reported in the middle of the night, it was Yu Heng who woke him up cautiously, explained the emergency to him patiently and carefully, and then coaxed him to go back to sleep.

It means that he only needs to do two-thirds or even less of what he should do, and Yu Heng will do the remaining one-third for him in advance.

It's no wonder that Yu Heng, who is known as "A Hundred Evils Don't Invade", suffers from illnesses.

Ji Xinxue has heard that 'ordinary people who don't get sick easily, once they get sick, they will have more serious attacks than others. 'Immediately ask Qingyun to invite the imperial physician.

If Yu Heng's condition was serious, he would definitely stay by Yu Heng's side, and put aside the matter of meeting the governor of Shangzhou again. He would think about it again when Yu Heng's condition stabilized or he passed the most difficult period.

Unexpectedly, while waiting for the imperial doctor, he was about to seize the time to pad his stomach, when he saw Yu Heng appearing in front of him dragging his sick body.

Ji Xinxue was so moved that she hurriedly greeted Yu Heng for dinner, barely leaving the corner of her eyes from Yu Heng's body, and easily discovered Yu Heng's abnormality.

Yu Heng was obviously silent for a while before speaking in a hoarse voice, "It's just that I had a headache from drinking too much yesterday, it's not a problem."

The pity in Ji Xinxue's eyes was even worse, and she moved all the things Yu Heng usually liked to eat to Yu Heng's hand, and said softly, "Then have breakfast first, and the imperial doctor will give a safe pulse later."

The wine used yesterday was Jiangnan fruit wine, how could it be possible to have a headache?

But he can understand that a strong person like Yu Heng cannot face up to his own weakness.

In order to prove to Ji Xinxue that he is really fine, Yu Heng happily moved Ji Xinxue to the small bowl of wontons and small buns that could be eaten one bite at a time.

Seeing that Yu Heng was still able to eat happily, Ji Xinxue gradually dissipated the worry in her eyes, and made another pancake for Yu Heng.The more unwell you are, the more you have to work hard to cook, so that you can get better quickly.

At his insistence, Yu Heng still had to face the imperial physician after eating almost double the usual breakfast.

The imperial doctor focused on feeling Yu Heng's pulse, pondered for a while, and said slowly, "Please change hands, the king of the county."

Yu Heng didn't take the imperial physician's hesitation to heart, and happily changed his hand to put it on the table. He knew what was going on with him, and also understood the imperial physician's taboos.

Because he said that he was unwell, the imperial doctor would definitely not say that he was not sick.

Compared with Yu Heng's calm and composed demeanor, Ji Xinxue looked a little anxious, her eyes towards the imperial physician became sharper and sharper unconsciously, and she could barely hold back the thought of urging her.

After the imperial physician put down the hand on Yu Heng's wrist, Ji Xinxue immediately asked, "How is it, but have you been tired for a while?"

"Yeah." The imperial physician turned his head to avoid Ji Xinxue's gaze, and turned to look at Yu Heng, with obvious hesitation and embarrassment on his face, "I have some questions that I want to ask the county king alone."

Before Yu Heng could speak, Ji Xinxue slapped the table anxiously, "Just ask!"

The hesitation and embarrassment on the imperial physician's face remained unchanged, and he still looked at Yu Heng questioningly.

Yu Heng's left eyelid suddenly twitched, he turned his head to look at Ji Xinxue whose face was getting more and more anxious, and whispered, "Axue, you"

"I can't know your condition?" Ji Xinxue suddenly turned her head to meet Yu Heng's eyes, and interrupted Yu Heng's words without hesitation, her round phoenix eyes not only contained extremely strong oppression, but also had some invisible grievances .

When the imperial physician told Ji Xinxue to avoid him just now, he was just anxious, but now that Yu Heng also showed his intentions, the grievance in Ji Xinxue's heart suddenly turned into disappointment.

Sensing that the grievance implied in Ji Xinxue's eyes was getting stronger and stronger, Yu Heng immediately ignored the uneasiness that suddenly rose in his heart, and quickly grabbed Ji Xinxue's wrist, fearing that Ji Xinxue would leave directly because of anger, "Yes!"

In order to prove that what she said was true, Yu Heng immediately said to the strange-faced imperial physician, "There is no need to hide my matter from A Xue, you can ask directly."

While speaking, Yu Heng quietly winked at the imperial physician.

If the imperial physician's questions are not suitable for Ah Xue to listen to, you can ask something casually first, and then go to greet him later.

It's a pity that the imperial physician didn't receive Yu Heng's hint at all, and said with a complicated face, "The king of the county seems to be acting rashly."

Yu Heng's face changed suddenly, and he interrupted the imperial physician without thinking, "No!"

How could such a thing be said in front of A Xue?

Didn't he already hint to the imperial physician that if you have something difficult to say, you can come to him in private.

Yu Heng was ashamed and angry, and she didn't dare to look at the expression of Ji Xinxue beside her, so she could only focus on the imperial physician, like an angry little lion.

Ji Xinxue blinked blankly.

Act rashly?

What's the meaning.

He had never seen Yu Heng lose his temper so suddenly, and he couldn't help but grabbed Yu Heng's hand hanging by his side and said, "Feng Lang, you can't XXXX."

When Yu Heng heard Ji Xinxue's words, the heat that originally only spread behind his ears rushed to his face, and his whole body froze in place.

He regretted it, since he had already claimed to be sick, he shouldn't have come to see A Xue again, otherwise, how could he have fallen into such a situation where he could not advance or retreat, and the seams were hard to find?

However, the imperial physician felt that what Ji Xinxue said made sense, and said from the bottom of his heart, "The princess is absolutely right." It seemed that she didn't notice Yu Heng's increasingly ugly expression.

He has been an imperial physician for several generations in his ancestors, and he has been impressed by his talents since he was a child. He is more talented than ordinary physicians, and his medical skills are better than many imperial physicians who are much older than him, but he has never been appreciated.

The reason is simple, speaking too bluntly and not looking at people.

It was precisely because of the imperial physician's character that he couldn't hide his thoughts and couldn't wink that Emperor Changping sent the imperial physician to Anye to recuperate Ji Xinxue's body.

Ji Xinxue immediately asked the imperial physician, "What does it mean to act rashly?

"Axue." Yu Heng held Ji Xinxue's hand tightly, looked at Ji Xinxue with pleading eyes, and said in a particularly depressed tone, "Don't ask, just let the imperial doctor prescribe the medicine directly."

Disapproval appeared in Ji Xinxue's eyes, and she persuaded Yu Heng earnestly, "The blisters on my legs became more and more serious because I didn't pay attention to it at the beginning and delayed it. Even if you think the situation is not serious now, you can't take it lightly."

The imperial physician was as relieved as meeting a bosom friend, and nodded repeatedly, "The princess is absolutely right."

Yu Heng looked at the imperial physician with deep eyes, and suddenly bent down to put his ear next to Ji Xinxue's, and said in an almost inaudible voice, "In another year, you will know what it means to act rashly."

Before he finished speaking, Yu Heng had already resumed his sitting posture on the chair, and his movements were as fast as if he was afraid that Ji Xinxue could hear what he just said.

"Why can't I know now?" Ji Xinxue's mind suddenly flashed, and he raised his hand to cover his mouth, blocking the gradually uncontrolled arc.

Oh.

Nocturnal emission is nocturnal emission, it must be said that Xianghuo is acting rashly.

No wonder the imperial physician hesitated, why is Yu Heng Yu Heng shy?

Considering that he is a princess, the imperial physician wanted to ask Yu Heng alone if he had nocturnal emissions. Yu Heng knew that he would have this kind of thing next year, so he would still be shy in front of him.

Tsk, the characteristic shame of a young man?

Ji Xinxue couldn't help turning her head to look at Yu Heng's expression, and found that Yu Heng's entire side face was slightly flushed, which was more frightening than usual when she was allergic.

In order to take care of the shame of a certain young man, when Ji Xinxue noticed that Yu Heng's eyelids were trembling slightly, she immediately turned her head and looked straight ahead.

He understands when the child grows up and saves face.

Although the Imperial Physician doesn't know how to wink, but he keeps in mind the rules of the Imperial Hospital, and will never say a word before the nobles take the initiative to ask questions. If the nobles are interrupted by other nobles when they are questioning him, he will wait until the nobles ask again. Only when you speak can you answer.

Even though the suffocated face was turning red, the imperial physician did not speak hastily, but just looked at Ji Xinxue eagerly.

However, Ji Xinxue had satisfied her curiosity and was recalling Yu Heng's various awkward reactions, completely ignoring the imperial doctor's eyes full of eagerness to express.

After a long time, Yu Heng, who had never heard of Ji Xinxue's "troubleshooting", finally regained his composure, and looked at the imperial physician stiffly and spoke.

"Prescribe medicine." Yu Heng didn't want to say a word.

The imperial doctor slowly shook his head, "The king of the county hasn't told the minister whether Xianghuo has acted rashly."

Yu Heng ignored the imperial physician's words, and his tone gradually lost patience, "prescribe medicine."

"How can you prescribe medicine without discerning the symptoms?" The imperial doctor was anxious, and his speech became faster and faster. , it is the sign of the germination of spring emotion, if it is the former, there is no need to use medicine, if it is the latter, you can drink decoction that can relieve fire."

"Prescribe medicine!" Yu Heng still spoke the first two words, but his gaze towards the imperial physician was no longer cold, but full of murderous intent.

Sitting next to Yu Heng, Ji Xinxue couldn't bear to look away, not knowing whether to sympathize with Yu Heng or the imperial physician.

The imperial physician didn't know whether he succumbed to Yu Heng's murderous eyes, or thought that Yu Heng insisted on letting him prescribe the medicine because he was sure that he was full of anger, and went to prescribe Yu Heng's medicine as good as he could.

Ji Xinxue coughed lightly, and never mentioned anything that would embarrass Yu Heng, "I'm going to interrogate Yao Zheng, you"

It seems like this time to ask 'Are you going? ' or 'you stay in the mansion to recuperate well' may touch Yu Hengzheng's sensitive boy's heart.

Ji Xinxue selfishly does not want Yu Heng to go.

Although it can be judged from Yu Heng's reaction that Yu Heng's "disease" is nocturnal emission, the imperial doctor said that there are two possibilities that may cause nocturnal emission. Without being able to question Yu Heng, Ji Xinxue cannot judge which possibility happened to Yu Heng.

In case Yu Heng is angry, going to interrogate the governor of Shangzhou with him will make his anger even more intense. Wouldn't it make Yu Heng's illness worse?

Yu Heng got up and walked towards the door as if nothing had happened, and said without hesitation, "I'll go with you."

Ji Xinxue shook her head helplessly, trotted to the dowry, took a random silk flower and chased after Yu Heng.

Seeing Yao Zhengshi, the governor of Shangzhou who was still imprisoned in the Yadong Prison in Anye County, again, Ji Xinxue almost thought that the people behind Yao Zheng had great powers, and they had unconsciously used someone who was very similar to Yao Zheng to kill the real man. Yao Zheng changed.

The last time he saw Yao Zheng, even in prison as a prisoner, Yao Zheng could still maintain the dignity of the governor of Shangzhou.

It had been almost half a month since Ji Xinxue saw Yao Zheng last time, but Yao Zheng seemed to have changed from inside to outside, exuding a lifeless air.

It wasn't until Ji Xinxue and Yu Heng walked in front of Yao Zheng that Yao Zheng turned his chaotic eyes and slowly raised his head along the corners of their robes.

Yao Zheng looked at the two of them one by one, and then fell silent for a while before slowly kneeling on the ground and saluting, "I give the princess, and the king pays his respects."

Ji Xinxue waved her hand, turned and left the cell.

The Jinwu Guard held Yao Zheng's collar and followed Ji Xinxue to the special trial hall of the county government office.Ji Xinxue sat behind the desk, Yu Heng stood silently beside Ji Xinxue, and Yao Zheng was placed in a kneeling position by the Jinwu Guard.

'Snapped! '

Ji Xinxue picked up the gavel on the case and slapped it fiercely, and said sharply, "Yao Zheng, are you convicted?"

Yao Zheng slowly straightened his curved back, and the gaze he met with Ji Xinxue never flinched for a moment, "I am wronged."

Instead of being annoyed by Yao Zheng's obsession, Ji Xinxue secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

It is Yao Zheng himself who is obviously guilty and pretends to be disgusting.

Yu Heng opened the wooden box next to the gavel, took out the top document and turned to the last page, "The magistrate of Fengyang County exposed you for 26 crimes, accumulating a total of 20 taels of silver."

The next letter is from Shangluo county magistrate, exposing Yao Zheng for 16 crimes and accumulating a total of [-] taels of silver

This is when Ji Xinxue learned that Huo Yu led the Jinwu Guards to dig up the stolen money, and ordered the Jinwu Guards to re-interrogate the county magistrates about Yao Zheng, and estimated the approximate amount of stolen money that Yao Zheng had embezzled over the years. Sent to the princess mansion.

Yu Heng only read the last page of each document as a summary, and finished reading seven documents in a short time. He said in a deep voice, "Yao Zheng, can you plead guilty?"

Yao Zheng said awe-inspiringly, "If you want to commit a crime, why don't you have excuses?"

Ji Xinxue suddenly let out a sneer, and leaned lazily on the back of the chair, "Take a look at the contents of the tray and tell me, do you plead guilty or not?"

In response, the Jinwu Guard walked up to Yao Zheng holding the tray.

Yao Zheng's fingers that were exposed outside his sleeves moved almost invisibly, and he lowered his head and froze in place as if he had suddenly fallen asleep.

Without Ji Xinxue and Yu Heng making a sound, another Jinwu Guard immediately walked up to Yao Zheng's side, one of them grabbed Yao Zheng's hair and forced Yao Zheng to look up, and the other picked up the parchment map on the tray and brought it to Yao Zheng's eyes.

Ji Xinxue and Yu Heng, who were at the top, looked at each other with surprise in their eyes.

Since Princess Xuanwei came to Anye, Jin Wuwei seems to have suddenly become sensible.

Yao Zheng was caught off guard when he saw the treasure map that he could recognize even if it was turned into ashes. Tears welled up in his eyes without warning. He closed his eyelids tiredly, and immediately felt a sharp sting and an irresistible huge pain coming from his eyelids. He was forced to look at the parchment map that was about to go into his eyes when his eyelashes were pulled by the Jin Wuwei.

In addition, the Jinwu Guard held the gold and silver bricks dug out by Huo Yu in both hands. When the Jinwu Guard who was holding the treasure map retreated, he immediately held the gold brick and the silver brick in front of Yao Zheng's eyes.

There are exactly the same marks on the upper left corner of the gold brick and the silver brick, which is a small word 'treasure'.

With Yao Zheng deliberately exchanging his greed for many years for gold and silver, he was careful to hide it, so naturally he would not leave writing on the gold bricks and silver bricks. After the investigation of the Jinwu Guard, this is not the writing of Pingzhen and Longfengtai.

Ji Xinxue has asked people to rub the handwriting on the gold bricks and silver bricks on paper, and went to the surrounding places, Chang'an, and even Pingzhen's hometown Guannei Road to find the owner of the handwriting.

Now let Yao Zheng see the handwriting on purpose, in order to completely break Yao Zheng's luck.

"Yao Zheng, are you convicted?" Ji Xinxue asked this question for the third time.

Yao Zheng didn't answer Ji Xinxue immediately like the previous few times. He was silent for a long time before he spoke, "What happened to Zhenniang, Dabao, and Xiaobao?"

"You can see them if you plead guilty." Ji Xinxue made no secret of her attitude of using Ping and the twins as bait, "They are in the same room with Mrs. Chen, the governor's wife, and your eldest grandson. Chen asks questions all the time. Why Jin Wuwei Ping and the dragon and phoenix were also arrested, it is a pity that the Jinwu Guards are all boring gourds, so far they have not solved the puzzle for Chen."

"I want to see them first." Yao Zheng said.

Ji Xinxue suddenly became curious, and deliberately set a multiple-choice question for Yao Zheng, "I will only allow you to meet one person, do you see Chen or Ping?"

Yao faced struggle and hesitation.

Ever since he saw the treasure map and the stolen money, Yao Zheng knew that his deployments for many years were all shattered like bubbles in the sun. Will be implicated by him.

"I want to see Zhenniang." Yao Zheng's tone was extremely firm.

Now that the matter has come to this, what is the point of seeing Chen and his grandson again? It is better never to see each other than to speak ill of each other after meeting.

Ji Xinxue's fake smile immediately became real.

If Yao Zheng chooses the Chen family, the eldest grandson, or one of the twins, he will not be satisfied with Yao Zheng, but Yao Zheng chose the Ping family. It can be seen that God pity Yao Zheng, and he can't bear Yao Zheng to be hidden by Ping Zhen until his death. in the drum.

Ji Xinxue first ordered the Jinwu Guard to bring Ping Zhen, and then said to Yao Zheng, "You can see Ping first, and then you can talk to Ping after confessing."

Yao Zheng moved his lips, after all, he still didn't ask Princess Anwu if she would keep her word, and nodded silently.

So far, it's pointless to say these things.

Jin Wuwei soon returned with Ping Shi who was bound and gagged by Wu Huaba, and according to Ji Xinxue's instructions, he left Ping Shi beside Yao Zheng.

This is the first time Ji Xinxue sees Ping after leaving Shangluo.

The last time I saw Ping Shi in Ping Mansion, Ping Shi was still a middle-aged woman who still had charm. In less than half a month, she was aging faster than Concubine Zhong Shu who had eaten the poison of Princess Dekang back then.

Yao Zheng stared blankly at Ping, heartache gradually appeared in his numb and empty eyes, "Zhenniang, I'm the one who got you and Bao'er into trouble."

Ping shook his head frantically, his face was full of panic, struggling to turn his back on Yao Zheng.

Seeing Ping's reaction, Yao Zheng's heart that had been in his throat suddenly fell back into his stomach. How could he be able to get Zhenniang to treat him so wholeheartedly.

Zhenniang didn't dislike him for being stuck in the quagmire forever and hurting the people around him, so how could he dislike Zhenniang's appearance?

Thinking of this, the emotion on Yao Zheng's face became more real, his tone even choked with sobs, "Zhen Niang."

Ji Xinxue suddenly felt a little hot-eyed, picked up the gavel and knocked it on the desk, "Take Ping Shi down."

After Jin Wuwei dragged Ping away, Ji Xinxue asked for the fourth time, "Yao Zheng, are you convicted?"

Yao Zheng closed his eyes to calm down his emotions, and said in a very calm tone, "I am guilty."

Ji Xinxue flipped through the documents piled up next to her, and asked the Fengyang county magistrate one by one about the charges against Yao Zheng, "How did you frame the previous Fengyang county magistrate for embezzling taxes?"

Yao Zheng was silent for a while, then smiled wryly, "It's been too long, I can't remember clearly."

Ji Xinxue wasn't angry either, he changed the question, "Do you remember anything about being the magistrate of Fengyang County?

"His daughter is very beautiful. Although she was sold to Jiangnan as a dead slave, she is still alive." Yao Zheng said in an amazed tone.

The expression on Ji Xinxue's face suddenly froze.

brute!

Yu Heng sensitively sensed Ji Xinxue's displeasure, and suddenly said, "Go and slap Ping Shi ten times."

Yao Zheng stared at the Jinwu Guard who was about to leave after Silence saluted Yu Heng, and his speech speed suddenly accelerated, "His daughter is working as an oiran at Mingyue Tower in Yichun, Yuanzhou, known as Hanyuetian."

Yu Heng sneered, "Beat lightly, don't lose your teeth."

Before his words fell, Yao Zheng spoke again, speaking at an unprecedented speed, "The person who framed him was not me but Sima, because he dealt with some Jiangnan businessmen with brutal methods, and those Jiangnan businessmen were all Sima's pocketbooks." , and now Sima has been promoted to the governor of Jinzhou."

Under Yao Zheng's expectant gaze, Yu Heng spoke again, "There is no need for the Jinwu Guard to bring Mrs. Chen here, and let Mrs. Chen slap these ten times."

Ji Xinxue, who was using charcoal sticks to record all the useful information in Yao Zheng's words, quietly gave Yu Heng a thumbs up in her heart.

Yes, the seven-inch catch is very accurate.

Ji Xinxue and Yu Heng spent almost the whole day with Yao Zheng, except that it was convenient for the officials in Shannan Dongdao to find out who was in Chang'an, and got all the clues they wanted.

The so-called pictures of people passing by, and traces of geese passing by, as long as we dig out all the profit networks between the officials of the Shannan host and the Jiangnan businessmen, we can naturally find the people in Chang'an.

They shouldn't be the ones who are anxious now, they should be Chang'an's villains.

"I know that I have everything to say, and I can't say enough, and I ask the princess and the county king to keep their promises." Because of talking too much, Yao Zheng, who was already hoarse, stared at Ji Xinxue and Yu Heng quietly.

Just because of Yao Zheng's words, Ji Xinxue's mind was shaken.

He doesn't want to keep his promise, Yao Zheng is not worthy.

People like Yao Zheng should taste what it's like to be teased by others.

But he was very curious about Yao Zheng's reaction when he knew that Ping Zhen approached him with a false identity.

Sensing Ji Xinxue's hesitation, Yu Heng made a decision for Ji Xinxue, and said to Jin Wuwei beside him, "Bring Mrs. Ping, gag her mouth, and bring two plates of delicious cakes and two cups of warm water. .”

He ate a lot of breakfast and was not hungry yet, but Ah Xue didn't eat a few mouthfuls.

Because of Yao Zheng's "unremitting efforts", Ping didn't get those ten slaps until the end, but it was only a short period of four hours in the past, and Ping's face, which was already sluggish, became more and more ugly, as if it could happen at any time. After fainting, he was not even as energetic as Yao Zheng.

"Zhenniang?" Yao Zheng's eyes were full of regret, and he couldn't wait to get up from the ground.

Ji Xinxue took a sip of warm water, sighed contentedly, smiled and looked at Yao Zhengping, who was separated by the Jinwu Guards like a Cowherd and a Weaver Girl.

"Yao Zheng, for the sake of your active confession, let me tell you a secret."

Yao Zheng realized that something was wrong when he wanted to get close to the Ping family but was stopped by the Jin Wuwei. He shook his head frantically, and his tone was full of pleading, "I just want to have a good conversation with her."

"Oh." Ji Xinxue nodded, pretending to be confused and said, "But I just want to inform you that this princess wants to tell you a secret, and I didn't ask you if you want to hear it."

Yu Heng, who was sipping tea with a teacup in his hand, looked up at Ji Xinxue, and had a panoramic view of Ji Xinxue's proud face, like a beautiful kitten who only wants to kill with beauty.

This was the first time he heard Ji Xinxue calling herself "this princess".

No wonder the noble princess of Qinghe County calls the raccoon slave "cat master", and spends all day trying to please the raccoon slave, just to pinch the cat master's face when the "cat master" commits crimes with beauty .

He really wanted to pinch her, he couldn't bear it, as long as he could touch A Xue's face.

Yu Heng couldn't help but put his thumb and index finger together, imagining how it would feel if he was touching Ji Xinxue's face at this moment, but the image from yesterday's dream suddenly appeared in his mind, as if he could feel the long legs being firm and slippery again between his fingers touch.

Out of the corner of her eye, she saw Yu Heng drain the warm water in the teacup in one gulp, Ji Xinxue turned her head in surprise, "Feng Lang?"

He remembered that Yu Heng didn't like drinking warm water very much, and he had to sip it slowly every time.

Yu Heng coughed lightly, and said concisely, "Thirsty."

Ji Xinxue nodded thoughtfully, and ordered the Jin Wuwei to fetch water again, then changed the remaining half cup of warm water and pushed it in front of Yu Heng, "If you are in a hurry, drink this first."

The water in the county government must be boiled on the spot, and cold boiled water may not be found for a while.

Ji Xinxue quickly turned her attention to Yao Zheng and Heping Shi in the hall, and told Yao Zheng all about what Ping Shi had concealed from Yao Zheng.

When Ping appeared in front of Yao Zheng, she claimed that she was an orphan girl from a certain city in Guannei Road. Her father died when she was very young, and her mother remarried. She lived with her grandparents and uncles since childhood. He Auntie wanted to sell her to an old widower in his 50s. In order to make her obedient, he did not hesitate to beat her up, even locked her in a woodshed, and only gave her half a piece of vegetable cake every day.

Fortunately, the neighbor's aunt was kind-hearted and couldn't bear to see her being forced to death, so she secretly let her go when a fire broke out in a house just two streets away from her uncle's.

After running outside the city, she passed out and was rescued by a caravan. With her fluent Guanzhong dialect and her dexterity when inquiring about news, she was taken in and protected by the caravan, and followed the caravan to the south.

In fact, Ping's background has nothing to do with what she said.

Ping was a child of Turks and Han people. Her mother treated her very well, and her grandfather was well-known in the local area. In addition, her face was exactly the same as that of Han people. Her childhood was much better than that of people with the same status as her. There is no difference from ordinary Han Chinese children.

So before Ji Xinxue sent Jin Wuwei to go to Guannei Road to find out Ping's origin based on the information Ping's revealed, no one in Ping's hometown could be sure that she was the murderer of the arson case.

When Ping was 15 years old, a fire broke out in Ping's grandfather's house. Ping's grandfather, grandmother, uncle's family, mother, stepfather, and half-brothers and sisters all died in the fire. To Ping's body.

In the follow-up investigation, the government found the porcelain bottle of the drug in the burned house, and some people said that when the fire broke out, they saw Ping leaving the city with tears in their eyes. People in Ping's hometown would suspect that Ping deliberately killed all family die.

Under the circumstance that Ping's family can't see anyone when he was born, and he can't see the corpse after death, and there is no way to interrogate, people in Ping's hometown can't think of the reason why Ping's family was killed. This tragedy has never been concluded.

According to the information obtained by the Jinwu Guard, Ping's next appearance was two years later. The 17-year-old claimed that she was 15 years old, met Yao Zheng in Hedong Road, and then became Yao Zheng's concubine.

Ji Xinxue slowly told Yao Zheng about Ping's real experience of 15 years, and kindly reminded Yao Zheng, whose expression was getting stagnant, "The Mongolian sweat medicine left in the abandoned house is extremely powerful, and it is a banned drug. Guess how she got this How did the medicine appear in front of you under the pursuit of the government?"

"No." Yao Zheng shook his head, and slumped on the ground as if suddenly losing all his strength, "What the princess said is all false, right?"

Ping, who was still being carried by the Jinwu Guard, shook her head frantically, tears dripping down her chin like muddy rain, she wanted to answer Yao Zheng's words but was gagged by the Jin Wu Guard, who couldn't break free from Jin Wu Guard's collar holding her hand, there was no way to make Yao Zheng look up at her.

Ji Xinxue precisely cut Yao Zheng's chest for the last time, "Ping's family has someone who is willing to arrange people around you. You have known her for more than ten years. Ask yourself, is it you who influence her more or she influences you more?"

In his early years, Yao Zheng was obviously the same as the county magistrate of Anye, with vicious greed. After getting to know the Ping family, he gradually changed to the tight-knit style he is now.

The suffocating silence gradually spread, and Ji Xinxue gradually lost the mood of watching pantomime, and refocused on the pastries, and was surprised to find that Yu Heng was still holding a teacup and sipping water.

It seemed to be the teacup he used just now, but there was already a jug in the upper right corner of the table. When Ji Xinxue pressed the back of his hand against the outer wall of the jug, he clearly felt that the water in the jug was much cooler than the warm water before.

Why didn't Yu Heng pour some new water to drink.

In the end is thirsty, or not thirsty?

Because Yu Heng was obsessed with drinking water, almost all the two plates of pastries went into Ji Xinxue's stomach.

Ji Xinxue brought the last piece of pastry to Yu Heng's mouth, and said with a guilty conscience, "I ate the first piece, and you eat the last piece, it will count as one and half of us."

Yu Heng, whose eyes were empty, suddenly came back to his senses. He didn't hear what Qing Ji Xinxue said to him just now, but immediately felt that the weight of the teacup in his hand was wrong, and quickly put the teacup at the place farthest from Ji Xinxue. Open your mouth subconsciously when you feel something close to your mouth.

Although only two parts are doing two different movements, Yu Heng has a sense of urgency to do seven or eight things in an instant, so the movements are extraordinarily anxious. When it was time, he also lowered his head subconsciously, and grabbed Ji Xinxue's fingers by the way.

Ji Xinxue let out a 'huh', quickly withdrew her fingers, and stood up from the chair abruptly, "Go! Go home!"

To actually starve Yu Heng so much? Could it be that Yu Heng saw that he ate too delicious cakes and couldn't bear to compete with him, so he drank half a glass of water until now?

Yu Heng held his head up and held the pastry in his mouth, and looked at Ji Xinxue with a dull expression, no matter how stupid he looked, even the Jinwu Guard, who didn't care about everything, couldn't help but focus on Yu Heng.

Ji Xinxue seized the time to neatly put the results of him and Yu Heng's hard work all day into the box, and lightly patted Yu Heng's shoulder with her palm, "Let's go."

Poor kid, all starving.

And Yu Heng didn't know whether he was acting rashly last night or this morning, so he must be more likely to be hungry.

When I return home, let the small kitchen serve dinner, and make some good things tonic.

Yu Heng's violently beating heart gradually eased, and the limbs that seemed to be completely out of his control also gradually regained consciousness, and finally realized belatedly that Ji Xinxue was not angry because of his rudeness.

While heaving a sigh of relief, Yu Heng felt a sense of loss in his heart at the same time. He took the things in Ji Xinxue's hands and walked in front of Ji Xinxue. He was afraid that Ji Xinxue might walk in front of him. See the complexity on his face.

When they passed by Yao Zheng who was hanging his head like a sculpture, Yu Heng and Ji Xinxue stopped in tacit understanding.

Ji Xinxue raised her foot and kicked Yao Zheng's calf, "I'll give you one last chance to tell the person who concealed the news for you in Chang'an, and I will give your eldest grandson a way out."

Yao Zheng gritted his teeth tightly and raised his head, staring at Ji Xinxue with his red eyes, as if he wanted to swallow Ji Xinxue with his gaze.

Not only was Ji Xinxue not afraid, but even a little impatient, "You only have time to think about fifty counts, Yihu, count."

The opening of the Jinwu Guard cavity named Yihu, with round characters, is "one, two, three".

Out of the corner of Yu Heng's eyes, he saw Ping, who had given up struggling, suddenly began to struggle frantically again, and his sanity immediately returned to his chaotic brain.

He took half a step back, turned sideways and mouthed to the Jin Wuwei who was carrying Ping.

'let her talk'

When the Jinwu Guard who reported the number counted to twelve, Ping's mournful voice suddenly sounded in the silent hall, "No! I can't say it! Zhenglang, oh, oh, oh!"

Jin Wuwei saw the king of the county making mouth shapes to tell him to 'gag', and put the cloth ball back into Ping's mouth without complaint.

Yao Zheng turned his head to look at Ping, the red threads in his eyes almost completely covered the area beyond the pupils.

Ping shook her head crazily, and everyone present could feel her pleading and despair just by looking at her.

can not say!

Yao Zheng said, no one will care about her big treasure and little treasure anymore.

Otherwise, even if Dabao and Xiaobao were imprisoned and exiled by Yao Zheng, as long as they were not beheaded, someone would save Dabao and Xiaobao and leave, giving Dabao and Xiaobao a prosperous and safe rest of their lives.

As the ending of the Golden Wuwei's number "fifty" completely fell, Ji Xinxue raised her hand to cover her mouth and yawned delicately, "I will let someone tell Mrs. Chen and your eldest grandson your choice."

After finishing speaking, Ji Xinxue turned around and left without even the slightest hesitation in her steps.

"Wait!" Yao Zheng roared when Ji Xinxue was about to walk into the afterglow of the sunset, and he couldn't tell whether he was disgusted or couldn't bear to look away from Ping's gaze, his tone was full of exhaustion and mockery, "I said, yes Sikong."

With their backs to Yao Zheng, Ji Xinxue and Yu Heng turned their heads to look at each other, with the same excitement on their brows.

Sure enough, Yao Zheng knew who the villain in Chang'an was, but he didn't say anything.

Although Yao Zheng didn't say that they will be able to find the right person sooner or later, but Yao Zheng said, they can save at least half a month or even a few months, and can minimize the "Shangzhou case" to the greatest extent. The turmoil is all in the east of Shannan.

Ji Xinxue suppressed her excitement and taunted, "Just say someone fooled me?"

In order not to be seen by Yao Zheng, Ji Xinxue didn't even dare to turn her head. The hand hanging by her side naturally clasped tightly with the hand that was close at hand. Want to calm the excitement with pain.

"I have evidence." Yao Zheng laughed suddenly, he didn't know whether it was to himself or someone else, and said hoarsely, "There is a family surnamed Wang in Qingshi Lane in Shangluo, as long as someone brings exactly eight qian If you go to visit with four catties of mutton and say that you want to take away Uncle Liu’s tablet, the Wang family will give the visitor a paulownia plaque, where there is a letter written by Sikong to the previous governor of Shangzhou.”

Ji Xinxue slowly let out the pressure that had accumulated for a long time.

The former governor of Shangzhou, if he remembers correctly, the former governor of Shangzhou was transferred to Jiangnan during the Yanguang Dynasty, and now he is serving as governor of Leping Prefecture.

A person like Yao Zheng would not be easily breached. Once someone broke through the wall in his heart, he could easily hollow out Yao Zheng.

After Ji Xinxue and Yu Heng stabilized their emotions, they stayed in the lobby dedicated to interrogating prisoners for another half an hour, asking Yao Zheng many little-known secrets.

Not only Chang'an's Sikong and the former governor of Shangzhou, who is now the governor of Leping Prefecture, are also in the interest network of the "Shangzhou case"
