"The moon is changing~it has just reached the top of the willow branches~"
As soon as Li Xiao entered the door, he heard his wife, Dahu Po, humming a ditty. He felt confused and hurriedly walked in. He saw chicken, duck, and fish on the table, what a sumptuous meal.
Mrs. Tiger came over with hot wine and said with a smile: "The master is back. Come over for dinner. We must celebrate tonight!"
Li Xiao looked around and saw no Sai Da Chong, so he asked, "Where is my mother?"
Dahu Po smiled even more happily: "Sit down first and listen to me tell you slowly!"
With that said, the tiger beater pulled Li Xiao to sit down and poured wine. After three drinks, she told what happened during the day.
"Ah?" Li Xiao looked surprised and quickly asked: "There is such a thing, then she..."
Dahu Po smiled and said: "From now on, this house will belong to us and our couple, and the good days will start from today!"
When Li Xiao heard this, he was worried: "Will it involve us?"
"How is that possible," the tiger-beating woman whispered, "you have forgotten that you have been away from home a few days ago, and I am not married yet. What does it have to do with us?"
As she spoke, Tiger Beater's eyes lit up again: "Then, brother and sister-in-law, we can't get away with it!"
Li Xiao waved his hands repeatedly and said: "No, no, no, no, no more harm to others!"
The tiger-beating woman said: "How can this be called harming people? Who allowed them to have anything to do with the sinners next door? Besides, once they die, won't all the property belong to us!"
The tiger-beating lady followed her lead and asked Li Xiao, who had been pampered since childhood, to understand the stakes and said: "My wife is absolutely right. I will report Li Sheng and his wife early tomorrow morning so that they will not suffer this lawsuit!"
"That's right. Come on, have another drink!"
…
Taiyue City is heavily guarded, with the four gates tightly closed. The Royal Forest Army and Captors are monitoring the entire city, and no one is allowed to enter or exit.
The high-rise building of Wanbao Chamber of Commerce towered into the clouds. In a small room behind the window, Hua Xinfeng looked at the soldiers walking on the street and asked in a deep voice: "Have you found out clearly?"
The old man wearing a green robe and his face covered by a big hat is Feng Qing, one of the two elders of Feng Lei.
Feng Qing said: "The streets are full of officers and soldiers who are under martial law, and it is Ye Ling who they want to arrest. But I don't know why."
"Oh?" Hua Xinfeng frowned, and after thinking for a moment, he asked, "Can we find him in front of Wei Beichen, Gao He, and Zhao Yu?"
Feng Qing shook his head: "I'm afraid it will be difficult."
Hua Xinfeng stopped talking. After walking back and forth for a few steps, he said, "Follow me to find Baili Hanran!"
…
The people in Baili Hanran's house were normal, seemingly unaware of the commotion in the city. Beside the corridor, Baili Hanran was playing with the caged bird, feeling very uncomfortable.
"The Sixth Prince is so excited!" Hua Xinfeng came up behind him at some point and said, "You're still in the mood to amuse yourself?"
Baili Hanran smiled slightly, as if he had already detected the arrival of Hua Xinfeng, so he put down the wooden spoon in his hand and said, "Master Hua, does he know what kind of bird this is?"
"I never do such recreational things, so of course I don't know." Hua Xinfeng didn't understand what he meant. He was so anxious now that he had no leisure and elegance to discuss these gadgets with Baili Hanran.
"The name of this bird is Mulan. It is because of its lofty ambitions since childhood and yearned for the Nine-Heaven Luan Phoenix, so it flaps its wings and flies high all day long. It's a pity that it is now trapped in this birdcage for people to enjoy!"
After saying that, Baili Hanran turned around, looked at Hua Xinfeng and said, "What's the matter, Young Master Hua?"
Hua Xinfeng said in a deep voice: "Does the Sixth Prince know about the things in the city?"
Baili Hanran smiled and said, "What's going on in the city? It's just looking for trouble."
Hua Xinfeng asked anxiously: "Does the Sixth Prince also know Ye Ling's whereabouts?"
"The city is full of wind and rain, and the grass and trees are full of soldiers," Baili Hanran sighed: "If I knew, why would I bother to watch birds here for entertainment?"
Hua Xinfeng's face darkened when he heard this: "If Ye Ling is captured by the court, he may be killed!"
"The disaster of death seems dangerous, but who knows what the outcome will be?" Baili Hanran said: "The sky is unpredictable, and people are prone to misfortune and fortune. We are both staying out of it at this moment, but who knows whether this is the case. Where are the authorities?"
Hua Xinfeng frowned and said: "What the Sixth Prince said is a good thing. It's just that whether you are inside or outside the team, it is always better to try your best than to sit back and wait for death."
Baili Hanran looked at Hua Xinfeng and asked after a long time: "What is your relationship with Ye Ling?"
Hua Xinfeng was stunned when he heard this, and then said word for word: "Meeting by chance is better than getting along day and night!"
"Young Master Hua is honest with others, but he is not like your father who has a castle in his chest." Baili Hanran stood up and walked to the court: "I happen to be entering the palace today, do you want to go with me?"
Hua Xinfeng didn't answer, just followed him...
…
Stepping on a magical rainbow, Wang Yuanzhong landed at the gate of the Prince's Mansion. He saw officers and soldiers guarding him on both sides, preventing others from approaching.
A sergeant came forward and said: "I have been ordered to guard the Prince's Mansion. No outsiders are allowed in or out without the order of the general of the auxiliary country!"
"Unbridled!" Wang Yuanzhong, his hair and beard spread out, shouted sternly, "I am the right-wing prime minister and a minor minister in the cabinet. Who dares to stop me!"
A majestic wave of energy shook the sergeant who was blocking the road far away. He did not dare to get close and watched Wang Yuanzhong walk in.
"What should I do?" someone asked.
"Immediately send someone to report to the general. If anything goes wrong, we can't afford to suffer!"
After entering the Prince's Mansion, Wang Yuanzhong went directly to the study. He is the prince's teacher and is very familiar with the family.
Pushing the door open, he saw that Prince Baili Changkong was still reviewing official documents and memorials, just like before.
Wang Yuanzhong couldn't bear it, and his face looked moved.
Baili Changkong looked up and saw that it was his master. He quickly stood up with a smile and said, "Master came just in time. I can't come in or out now. Several important documents here need to be sent out as soon as possible, so I asked master to do it for me!"
Wang Yuanzhong said: "Prince, don't you know that a great disaster is coming?"
Baili Changkong was stunned for a moment, then smiled with relief: "As a prince, I shoulder the responsibility of the country. My father and I are both father and son, as well as monarch and minister. If I have done anything inappropriate, I should be punished. However, even if I am punished for my fault, I will not be punished. There is no family relationship between father and son. As a son, how can he resent and doubt his father?"
When Wang Yuanzhong heard this, he closed his eyes and nodded repeatedly, as if he was reluctant to give up: "I understand, I am resigning!"
When Wang Yuanzhong turned around to leave, Baili Changkong hurriedly said: "Master! This is a matter between my father and son and has nothing to do with anyone else!"
Wang Yuanzhong was silent for a moment, then turned around and said with a smile: "Once you are a teacher, you will always be a father. How can a teacher be someone else? I promised your grandpa that I will protect your mother and son!"
After saying this, Wang Yuanzhong turned and left.
"Master! Master! Master!"
Baili Changkong seemed to have vaguely guessed something, so he hurriedly called Wang Yuanzhong. Unexpectedly, Wang Yuanzhong was determined and left without looking back.
Baili Changkong stood at the door, his face changing several times, and his tone was sad: "Father, what did my son do wrong?"
…
In the lobby of Taiyue Mansion, an old man with a wide body and fat body was sitting, wiping sweat with a towel.
This person is none other than Zhu Wanquan, the Lord of Amaterasu City.
When a wave of corpses appeared in the Corpse Ridge, Amaterasu City was also affected. However, Zhu Wanquan resisted vigorously, so that Amaterasu City suffered no damage, so he was commended by the court.
Taking advantage of Song Zheng's departure from the capital, Baili Changkong appointed Zhu Wanquan as the governor of Taiyue.
It's a pity that he only took office for three days when he encountered the whole city's arrest of the rebel Ye Ling.
Zhu Wanquan leaned on the chair, wiped his sweat and said to himself: "I am staying well in Amaterasu City, but you insist on getting me into this fire pit. Who do you think I provoked?"
Not long after, a police officer came forward and said: "Your Majesty, Xu Guo's family has already fled Taiyue City, but we caught the Xu family who is very close to Xu Guo's family. According to her daughter-in-law, their family Moving around a lot seems to be related."
Zhu Wanquan was stunned when he heard this, and then said to himself: "The capital is really the most kind place. My daughter-in-law can still report her mother-in-law. What a good example!"
"Bring the people here!"
As he spoke, the officer took Sai Da Chong to the court. As soon as Sai Da Chong came in, he fell to his knees and shouted that he was wronged.
Zhu Wanquan looked down, dumbfounded. If you say that a mortal old lady is plotting a treason, how much fake wine has she drunk?
Seeing Zhu Wanquan refusing to interrogate or question, the master on the side whispered: "Sir, do you think it's time to interrogate?"
Zhu Wanquan glanced at him and asked, "What do you want me to interrogate? What disease does she have and what medicine does she take?"
The master has been in the officialdom for many years, so he is naturally very clever. Then he whispered again: "Sir, this case is of great importance. I would rather kill a thousand people by mistake than let one go. Otherwise, my Lord, you will also be implicated!"
Zhu Wanquan said nothing.
Not long after, I heard someone beating drums outside the door and shouting about injustice.
When Zhu Wanquan heard this, he happened to have no one to go down the steps, so he hurriedly shouted: "Bring the drummer to the hall!"
Then, the officer brought two people in, they were Sai Da Chong's eldest son Li Sheng and his daughter-in-law Ruilian.
Sai Da Chong cried: "Son, please save me!"
Li Sheng and Ruilian quickly knelt down: "Sir, my mother was wronged. Please tell me clearly!"
Zhu Wanquan raised his eyebrows and was about to ask a question, but he didn't expect someone to play drums outside the hall.
After bringing the person up, he saw that it was his second son Li Xiao who was coming.
Li Sheng was overjoyed and immediately said: "Second brother, you came just in time. Tell the adults that our mother was wrongly accused!"
Li Xiao was educated all night by his wife, the tiger-beating woman. Even when he saw the old woman kneeling on the ground, he was not moved at all. Moreover, what his eldest brother Li Sheng said to him made him feel disgusted.
Zhu Wanquan listened to them and asked, "Are you the second son? Are you here to plead and testify for your mother?"
Li Xiao quickly knelt down, raised his hands and said: "I'm here to report to you, the villain, but it's not to prove their innocence, but to prove their guilt! My eldest brother, my sister-in-law, and my mother colluded with each other to rebel. Please, sir." The master is aware of it!"
As soon as these words came out, it was like a bolt from the blue and five thunders. Li Sheng was stunned on the spot, and Sai Da Chong almost fainted, but was supported by Ruilian.
Zhu Wanquan smiled and said: "Interesting, this is so interesting. The capital is such a good place, there is everything new!"
