"Is this really your own home?"
As soon as he entered the yard, Yang Shu saw Cui Tingyu painting under the shade of a tree.
Cui Tingyu ignored him, stained the tip of his pen with ink, and continued to paint by himself.
Yang Shu stretched his head to see what she drew. At one glance, Yang Shu was stunned. It turned out to be the layout of Fan Zhiju's mansion.
She really didn't have a moment to spare.
"Let's leave tomorrow morning."
Cui Tingyu put down his pen and looked at Yang Shu, "Suppressing bandits in Xishan?"
"Yes." Yang Shu unfolded the folding fan, "If you can't stand the blood, stay in Qingzhou. When the patient arrives, let me know and I will bring old man Xie over."
Cui Tingyu put away the paintings and returned to the house.
Yang Shu rolled his eyes. It was only because he was so charming that he could not be shaken even if he was so scared.
"Your Majesty, Fan Zhiju is here." Fang Zhuang came to Yang Shu's side and whispered.
Yang Shu looked in the direction of the front hall and asked Fang Zhuang to find a strong wooden stick.
"Your Majesty." Seeing Yang Shu, Fan Zhiju hurriedly saluted with a flattering smile on his face.
"Let me ask you, have they been found?"
"Come on, we already have clues. I will bring them to the Crown Prince in three days at most." Fan Zhiju vowed.
Yang Shu raised his eyebrows slightly, "Three days, it's a pity that he will leave tomorrow morning, otherwise, I really want to see how Fan Zhiju brought that guy Cui Tingyu in front of him."
Most likely, they would arrest some farmers and fool them.
"How can I have that patience?"
"Fan Zhiju, Fan Zhiju, because of you, I have been humiliated several times. Even in front of the emperor, I have never been so humiliated."
"Come on, hit me!" Yang Shu shouted coldly.
Fan Zhiju was confused and looked up at Yang Shu, "Prince?"
Seeing Fang Zhuang walking in, Fan Zhiju stepped back and said, "Your Majesty, tonight, tonight I will escort them in front of you."
"Your Majesty, I am an official of the imperial court. If you want to lynch someone, the emperor will definitely punish you!"
Seeing that Yang Shu had no intention of stopping him, Fan Zhiju shouted.
Fang Zhuang swung his stick on Fan Zhiju's left arm, and then knocked him down with the stick.
"Yang Shu!"
"Don't be too arrogant!"
Fan Zhiju lay on the ground and howled, staring at Yang Shu with his slender eyes like a snake, filled with resentment.
Yang Shu looked pale and leaned back.
Fang Zhuang raised his stick and hit Fan Zhiju's spine.
After a moment or two, the miserable howling in the room stopped.
"Go and ask the doctor." Yang Shu glanced at Fan Zhiju, who had fainted, and walked out.
He killed Trouble, but when he was paralyzed, he just scolded him.
In Jian'an, Eunuch Quan walked into the imperial study. It was not until the emperor put down the memorial that he spoke: "Your Majesty, Yang Shu was taken prisoner yesterday."
The emperor frowned and stared at Eunuch Quan.
Eunuch Quan did not dare to delay and continued hurriedly, "Everyone is fine, but he has suffered some sins."
"Isn't it for people to watch?" The emperor's tone was cold.
Eunuch Quan's back was dripping with sweat. "Yang Shu saved a child. Everyone was shocked and blocked the road. The secret guards were a step too late. When they caught up, Yang Shu had already been taken away."
"The strange thing is that those people didn't kill him, Yang Shu said, they just hung him up on a tree and humiliated him."
"Since no one has seen that group except him, the secret guards are not sure yet whether they are the same group that broke into Fan Zhiju's mansion and are investigating."
"Your Majesty, according to the news from the secret guards, there is a high probability that those people are from other countries."
"Everyone in the Yan Kingdom knows how domineering and vicious Yang Shu is. No family would go against King Ding's palace for a girl."
The emperor raised his eyes and said, "Qingzhou is really lively. That land can actually attract visitors from all over."
"Send more people over and be sure to dig them out."
"The State of Yan is not very powerful, but it cannot allow others to act wildly."
"Send an order for Yang Shu to leave Qingzhou immediately and rush to Xishan." The emperor said solemnly. He was now afraid that those people would use Yang Shu to make a fuss and trigger conflicts between him and Yang Lian.
"Yes." Father-in-law Quan bowed and backed away slowly.
Just as he turned around, the emperor stopped him, "You said, Yang Shu saved a child and caused a congestion?"
Eunuch Quan nodded, "The child fell into the water. When he was fished out, he was no longer breathing. Yang Shu pressed his chest and blew a few breaths. As a result, he was alive."
There was some disbelief in Eunuch Quan's tone.
The emperor narrowed his eyes, "Does he still have this ability?"
Eunuch Quan shook his head, "The secret guard said it's just a hobby..."
"Yang Shu likes young children, but he usually doesn't dare. Marshal Yang can tolerate anything, but he will never tolerate this."
"Yang Shu is brave, but he is not afraid of death yet."
"That day, I heard that I couldn't hold it back..."
The emperor lost his interest in finding out and waved his hand to signal the father-in-law to retreat.
"Empress Roufei."
The eunuch outside the royal study saluted the beautiful woman in palace clothes in front of her.
"I asked the imperial kitchen to make lotus seed soup. Is the emperor still busy with political affairs?" Concubine Rou was as gentle as her title.
"Slave, go in and take a look."
The eunuch had a smile on his face. The people in the palace were the most discerning and knew who could be offended and who could not be offended.
Like Concubine Rou, the one who is dear to the emperor's heart, she must not be offended.
"Your Majesty, Concubine Rou is here. She is waiting outside." The eunuch whispered under the table.
"Let her in."
"Yes." The eunuch walked out slowly.
"Mother, it's hot. Go in quickly and don't get caught in the heat." The eunuch smiled and stepped aside.
Concubine Rou smiled and nodded, looking very friendly.
"No matter how busy political affairs are, they cannot stop all day long. The emperor must put the dragon's body first." Concubine Rou put down the food box and took out the lotus seed soup from it.
"Afraid of getting too hot from the sun, I chilled it with ice. Try it quickly."
Concubine Rou's eyes were gentle and she stretched out her hand towards the emperor.
In the entire harem, she was the only one who dared to treat the emperor with such a casual attitude.
The emperor stood up, took the lotus seed soup, and drank it.
"Don't come here in person next time. The weather is so hot and your body is always weak. Sunbathe carefully." The emperor looked at Concubine Rou and said warmly.
"Also, you stay in the imperial kitchen every day. If I don't come, how can I see you?"
Concubine Rou straightened out the wrinkles on the emperor's clothes, looking angry and resentful.
The emperor smiled, only with Concubine Rou could he experience the tenderness of an ordinary couple.
"I'm going to see you tonight."
"You have nothing to say, I'll be waiting."
Concubine Rou smiled sweetly. Seeing that the emperor had finished the lotus seed soup, she lowered her eyes and gently opened her lips, "I know, Yi'er..."
The emperor looked angry, "Who is talking nonsense in front of you?"
"Your Majesty, I am a mother and I should know about my child's condition."
Concubine Rou raised her eyes and said, "Yang Shu is at the side. He has the strength to spare, but he just watches Yi'er being stabbed by the sword. Your Majesty, don't you feel sad at all?"
"How can I not feel distressed?" The emperor pursed his lips into a straight line, "But you also know the energy of King Ding's palace, and I can't move it."
"Be patient."
"When Yang Lian closes his eyes, I will punish Yang Shu severely."
