Tonight's Zhuyuexuan was still as lively as ever, the hall was crowded with people, while high-ranking officials and nobles flattered each other, they did not forget to talk about some topics that men like, such as politics, such as beauty, and the latter was talked about more.

When King Guangping entered here, he caused some commotion. He arrived a little late, and there was no room to sit in the hall, but he was a favored prince, and within a short time, someone "felt honored" Give up the front row seat that was finally occupied.The King of Guangping County did not refuse, and sat down naturally after a simple thank you. His sophisticated appearance made it hard to imagine that he was a young prince who had spent several years in a place of cultivation.Although there are people here who slander him, they don't dare to say any ugly words, and they have to compliment him with all kinds of good words, and introduce him to the most beautiful girl in Zhuyuexuan.Chongqiu stood behind the king of the county, always maintaining the posture of a guardian. Although his serious and indifferent face made people who saw it feel "unhappy", no one was brave enough to point it out.

When watching the performance, the performance of the county king was not much different from that of the officials around him. He applauded when it should be called good, and kept quiet when it should be quiet. Only after the singing and dancing were over, the rest of the people were in twos and threes. After returning to the mansion, the Duke of Guangping was still sitting on the chair as firmly as Mount Tai. Chongqiu behind him broke out in a cold sweat. One must know that although the officials allowed the Duke to go out, they might not return to the palace at night.

"I came to Zhuyuexuan, but I didn't see Miss Li, don't you feel disappointed?" Guangping County King said naturally.

Chongqiu became even more anxious, "Master, Miss Li can't be missed."

"How can we not miss it?" Prince Guangping raised his eyebrows, and said in a stern tone, "We have to keep in mind all the things that the master has looked at and praised, not to mention that Miss Li is the person in the master's heart. No matter whether she lives in the master's house or not, we need to think about her."

"Master... this subordinate is not talking about this worry..." Chongqiu continued to persuade, "It's good for you to know in your heart, but you must not let the master misunderstand."

"If Miss Li is really a smart person, we naturally don't need to worry about these problems." The Guangping County King said firmly, and he reached out to stop a maid who was tidying up, "Go and invite Miss Li down, and say that a member of the Zhao family Young Master wants to talk to her."

The little maid nodded, and quickly ran upstairs, but the one she brought down was not Miss Li, but Meng Huaqiu.

"Master has already rested, I'm afraid Mr. Zhao will not be able to fulfill his wish." Meng Huaqiu said respectfully and directly.

"Ms. Shi Shi, when to rest, when to get sick, when to sleep well, and when to recover from illness, isn't it all up to you who are in charge?" Guangping County King laughed, "The relationship between Miss Li and my father is my responsibility." I also heard that he has not been so happy for many years, I just want to express my gratitude to Miss Shi Shi."

"Since the young master already knows everything, he should know that it is not appropriate to do so." Meng Huaqiu responded.

"Oh? Really?" The Guangping County King said disapprovingly, "I heard your rejection, but with all due respect, your rejection doesn't seem to have so much weight...Even if Miss Li is inconvenient to see me, with me With my identity, it would be appropriate for your boss to personally reject me."

Meng Huaqiu has seen many troublesome people, but so far she has only seen this one person who said she wanted to find relatives.She frowned, and couldn't help observing the county king more carefully, only to see that although this young man was young, he was tall and straight, with a handsome appearance, unlike ordinary people.

"Hey, I'm afraid it will be dawn when you think it over, why don't you use a more direct method." Guangping County King sighed, and then pulled out the snow from Chongqiu's sheath beside him as quickly as lightning. Blade, cut straight to Meng Huaqiu.The speed of his sword strikes and the fierceness of his sword spirit are not inferior to those of the martial arts masters, and his actions are unexpected. Although Meng Huaqiu has kung fu, he is defenseless at this moment, and he has no weapons on his body. It is difficult to resist for a while. Take this knife hard!At this time, Xun Ji's figure descended from the sky, supported her waist, and pulled her back, avoiding the knife light obviously.After standing still, Meng Huaqiu was still in shock and his face was pale.

"What are you doing?" Qi Qi asked in a cold voice. She was already worried about Bai Choufei's matter, but seeing Meng Huaqiu being attacked for no reason, she was even more furious. If the other party was not a descendant of the Zhao family, she might not even ask If you ask, you will send it with a sword.

However, the moment they saw her, the countenance of Guangping County King and Chongqiu changed at the same time, and the County King called out in disbelief: "Lu Ji?"

**********************

Even today's fine weather can't save Qi Qi's bad mood. She was expressionless when she entered the Shenhou Mansion. If the gatekeepers didn't know her, they might surround her as a troublemaker.

"You didn't smile at all today, did you come to Xingshi to inquire about crimes?" On the way to Xun Shenhou, Qi Qi happened to bump into Zhui Ming, and he asked with a smile.

"Last night, the king of Guangping made a big fuss in Zhuyuexuan, and then said a lot of inexplicable things, plus Wang Xiaoshi's messy things, it's no wonder I can laugh." Qi Qi Yuyu replied.

"Guangping County King? Some inexplicable words?"

"I seem to think that I look like an old friend of his, and I always feel that I will be bothered by this coincidence in the future." Qi Qi frowned and said, "I feel very strange about this county king. Maybe he bumped into the official at the beginning. It's no coincidence that you work hard without complaining."

This guess coincided with Zhuge Zhengwo's thinking, Zhui Ming felt more and more deeply watered in the capital, and even a 13-year-old child could be involved in the entanglement of various forces.

"Uncle Shi is waiting for you in the red pavilion in the lake, do you know the way?"

Qi Qi nodded and brushed past Zhui Ming.

Zhuge Zheng and I stood in the red pavilion looking up at the mountain just like when Qi Qi first entered Beijing. The wrinkles on his face were more than two years ago, which shows how hard he was fighting against treacherous officials.

"Are you here?" He turned around, smiled at Qi Qi, pointed to the stone bench in the pavilion, and signaled Qi Qi to sit down, and he himself sat on the stone bench opposite her.There was a round stone table between the two of them, and a book was spread out on the table. Qi Qi glanced at it and found that the book had already been annotated, and it was obviously not the first time it had been read.

"As I get older, I have different views on some things. Looking back at the beginning, I always feel that I have done a lot of stupid things." Zhuge Shenhou seemed to have a lot of emotion, but the heavy emotion did not last long. Turning around, he asked, "You came to me today to ask about the whole story of Wang Xiaoshi."

"I heard that Wang Xiaoshi came to your place before killing Fu Zongshu, and there was a lot of commotion. I wonder if Fu Zongshu ordered him to assassinate you, but instead he and you joined forces to fight back?"

"You guessed well." Zhuge Shenhou nodded affirmatively, "Although Wang Xiaoshi is young, he can see many things clearly, and from this point alone, he is much more capable than our generation. "After he finished saying this, he looked at Qi Qi again, with kind eyes, "You are the same...you are all excellent young people."

Qi Qi was slightly touched by these words, and once again she envied the four famous arresters, and envied them for having uncles like Zhuge Shenhou.After being moved and envious, she did not forget the business, and then asked, "I wonder what role Bai Choufei played in this incident, Master? Has he already invested in Fu Zongshu, Cai Jing and others?"

"It's not surprising for a person like him to do such a thing." Zhuge Shenhou said, "No matter what a person like him does, it is plausible."

"The current Su Lou can't manage him." Qi Qi sighed, "He's getting sicker...I even suspect that Bai Choufei will poison him!"

"Bai Choufei still doesn't dare to do this now. A large part of the prestige of the Golden Wind and Rain Tower is established by its allies and friends, and many of its friends are based on Su Mengzhen's face. Leaving aside Wan and Xiaohanshan, the Fameng Party in Beijing will definitely not give Baichoufei any face."

"So Bai Choufei has to wait now." Qi Qi continued, "He has to wait until Cai Jing grabs more power from the officials, until Cai Jing completely trusts him and is willing to lend him his power, and he still needs to wait until Su Meng He has figured out all the tricks of the pillow. Until he gets what he wants, he can't act rashly."

"Not only is he waiting, Su Mengzhen is also waiting. He is waiting for the day when Wang Xiaoshi comes back. When he comes back, he can re-balance Bai Choufei so that he can never act rashly." Zhuge Shenhou added.

"It seems that Wang Xiaoshi's expulsion is necessary for Cai Jing and Bai Choufei, even if it is worth paying for Fu Zongshu."

"Fu Zongshu's death may not be a 'compensation' for Cai Jing." Zhuge Shenhou said.

Qi Qi pondered for a moment because of his words, and suddenly said, "Fu Zongshu is dead, so Cai Jing doesn't need to worry about the dog riding on his neck one day."

"More than that, Fu Zongshu is dead, Cai Jing has a reason to find another person to leave the mountain." Zhuge Shenhou showed a solemn look on his face.

Qi Qi's complexion changed because of his words.

She suddenly remembered one thing: Fu Zongshu was a disciple of Yuan Shisanxian.
