Murong Qiushui felt sad when she heard Rong Fei's name, but Rong Lan was still showing off her intelligence.
"It is said that human life is of the utmost importance, and two lives have been lost in Sister Rou'er's case. This shows that the purpose of those beasts just now is not simple, or that human lives are nothing to them, just like killing two people. A chicken or two fish stewed. They wanted to do harm to Sister Rouer, so as sisters, there was no reason to just sit idly by.
And listening to their conversation just now, it was obvious that this was not the first time they had done this. In Rong Fei's words, he was a repeat criminal with heinous crimes. Sister, don’t you want to do some earth-shattering things? There is a ready-made opportunity right in front of you. "
"Huh? What does that mean?"
Seeing Rong Lan bring the topic to herself, Murong Qiu Shui quickly restrained her mind and asked doubtfully.
"The slave family guesses that this is not the first time these guys have done this kind of thing, and there must be more than two lives in their hands. If my sister can find out the crimes they have committed cumulatively, and then announce them, she will definitely become famous all over the world.
Hee hee, and sister, don’t forget, Rong Fei is also checking the backlog of cases in Kyoto Prefecture recently. If my sister can solve this case before Rong Fei, she will definitely be able to suppress Rong Fei. "
After hearing Rong Lan's explanation and analysis, Murong Qiu Shui's eyes suddenly lit up.
She has a fiery temper that hates evil, and she has no reason to stand idly by when she encounters such illegal things that she can't bear to see, not to mention that Ji Rou'er is involved.
But what interested Murong Qiu Shui even more was the temptation that she couldn't refuse.
"But…"
Murong Qiushui just had a simple mind and lacked experience. It was not that he really had no brains at all. After calming down, he hesitated.
"Although Rong Fei's cultivation is not very good, his ability to solve crimes is pretty good. Can the two of us defeat him? Also, Rong Fei also knows about the fact that Sister Rou'er is being plotted against. , why hasn’t it been so long since he started investigating?”
"Hehe, sister, don't worry. The Nu family learned from the Yamen of Kyoto Prefecture that everyone in the Jixian Division has recently been investigating the case of missing girls and children. Xu Rongfei didn't have enough energy, so he postponed the matter. . After all, Sister Rouer hasn’t suffered much, so I’m not in a hurry.”
Snapped!
Murong Qiu Shui slapped her thigh, stood up suddenly and shouted excitedly.
"This must be it, then the two of us need to act quickly, and we must seize all the stolen goods from those beasts before Rong Fei does. But..."
Murong Qiu Shui was immediately in trouble again, frowning and saying in distress.
"How should we start the investigation when we are unfamiliar with each other in Kyoto?"
"Hehe, sister, there is no need to worry. As the saying goes, catch the thief first and catch the king first. Just start with the one named Dou Qi. The slave family just quietly injected some pollen into the next room. Human noses cannot smell the smell of this pollen. But the slave family can find the source by following the smell."
…
"Princess, it's almost time, it's time to wash up and have breakfast."
The palace maid knocked gently on the door and called.
"Go away! I don't want to eat, I don't want to get up, and no one bothers me."
Zhu Leyao's shout came from across the door.
The palace maid looked worried. This was the fifth time she failed to wake up Zhu Leyao. The princess seems to be in a bad mood today. Could it be that she is having menstruation?
After thinking for a moment, the palace maid decided to report the situation to the Queen.
Tang You'er was currently chatting with Concubine Xian in the Nuanfeng Pavilion.
After confirming that Rong Fei was her nephew yesterday, Concubine Xian naturally thought of her missing sister and many relatives, and her emotions inevitably fluctuated. Because she was worried about the emotional impact on her body, Tang Youer simply stayed in the Nuanfeng Pavilion to take care of her last night, and she has not left until now.
Zhu Leyao has an eccentric temperament. Every once in a while, she will play tricks or do some embarrassing things that make people laugh or cry. Tang Youer has long been used to it. Therefore, after hearing the news from Zhu Leyao's personal maid, Tang Youer didn't take it too seriously and just gave instructions.
"Perhaps I have been bored in the palace for too long. Just send someone to ask Yingrong to come and accompany the princess."
Soon a chamberlain went to Liu Chuanfang's house to invite Liu Yingrong into the palace.
"Little lady, I miss you so much, hahaha."
Liu Yingrong, who was wearing men's clothes and a mustache, kicked open the door of the bedroom without waiting for the palace maid's notification, waved the folding fan, and entered Zhu Leyao's bedroom with one step at a time.
The maids at the outer door were used to the behavior of the eldest daughter of the chief minister, so they suppressed the laughter in their hearts and closed the door tightly again.
Liu Yingrong walked to the edge of the bed and saw the quilt was raised high, and she suddenly said angrily.
"You're such an unruly slut, how dare you steal someone behind my back? Look at me if I don't fix you up today. Hehehehe!"
After saying that, he smiled strangely and rushed forward to lift the quilt.
Just when Liu Yingrong was about to scratch Zhu Leyao's itchy flesh with her hands, she saw that Zhu Leyao's face was red and her eyes were watery, as if she might cry at any time.
"Hey, what's wrong with you? Are you being bullied? Tell me who it is and I'll vent your anger."
Liu Yingrong was shocked at first, and then immediately held Zhu Leyao in her arms to comfort her.
"Sister Yingrong! I...I...oh, I'm so embarrassed."
Zhu Leyao covered her face, squirmed in Liu Yingrong's arms and moaned in a twisted voice.
"You have to tell me what happened. Could it be that we met a flower picker?"
Liu Yingrong seemed to realize what the problem was, the anger in her heart dissipated, she stroked Zhu Leyao's back and joked.
The two are good sisters who talk about everything, including some private and embarrassing things that they are too shy to talk about. After hesitating for a long time, Zhu Leyao told Liu Yingrong exactly what happened.
"Oh~ So that's it. It's human nature for men to love each other and women to love each other. There's nothing to be embarrassed about. In my opinion, it's actually a good thing. Rong Fei is your cousin and you are his cousin. My cousin marries his cousin. If you add a kiss, you will have double happiness, how wonderful!"
Liu Yingrong shook her head and smiled.
"But...but, Rongfei already has Ji Rou'er, so what does it mean if I interfere again. To steal someone's love? To bully someone with power? I don't even bother to do such a thing."
Zhu Leyao curled her lips and said.
"Hmph! Since you disdain it, then why did you think that Concubine Xian and the Empress didn't come out to object when they proposed marriage for you yesterday, but now she is crying and feeling sorry for herself like a little resentful woman. This is not the Zhu Leyao I know. ah."
"I'm just saying that I don't bother to do that kind of thing. My mother and sister-in-law want to do it, and I can't stop them. But the point now is not this, but...but...Oh, I don't know what to say."
"Isn't it just that my heart has fallen on Rong Fei? There is nothing to say. Don't worry, sister, this matter is taken care of by me. I will go to Concubine Xian and the Empress to discuss recruiting Rong Fei as my wife. Regarding the matter, as for Ji Rouer, give her some money to get rid of the problem."
"You are not allowed to act recklessly!"
Upon hearing this, Zhu Leyao immediately grabbed Liu Yingrong who was about to get up and roared with a tigerish face.
"Then...then...then what kind of person have I become? Rong Fei can't bear to hate me for the rest of his life. Moreover, Ji Rouer's life experience is already so pitiful. Rong Fei is her only relative in the world, how can I bear to rob her."
"Then it's just like what you thought yesterday. Two women serve one husband together, but Ji Rou'er can only be a concubine. Let me think about it, there seems to be a precedent of a concubine being taken in by a concubine hundreds of years ago. Rong Fei found the jade seal and established it. You have done a great job, I guess as long as you go to His Majesty and pretend to be pitiful and beg for mercy, His Majesty will be able to agree, and Concubine Xian will not object..."
"Who wants to plead with the emperor's brother? Will he let me be a human being in the future?"
Zhu Leyao grabbed the corners of the quilt, her face turned red.
"Auntie, this won't work, that won't work either. What do you want?"
Liu Yingrong said helplessly.
"I...I don't know either."
"Oh, I'm really pissed off by you. Forget it, don't worry about those troubles anymore, wash up and change clothes quickly, I'll take you to see some fun things."
"What's so fun?"
Zhu Leyao suddenly became energetic, put Rong Fei's matter behind her, grabbed Liu Yingrong's slender shoulders and asked expectantly.
"There is a poetry meeting tonight at Jinfeng Xiaoyu Building. I will take you to join in the fun. There may be a young talent who can catch your eye, and you will forget about Rong Fei when you turn around."
"It sounds like I'm a watery person."
Zhu Leyao muttered dissatisfiedly, and then asked curiously.
"Where is Jinfeng Xiaoyu Building?"
"Hey hey hey, brothel!"
…
"My master is still ill, so it is inconvenient for us to receive visitors. This made the two adults make a wasted trip. I'm really sorry."
In front of the Liu Mansion, the old housekeeper bowed and apologized to the two ministers, Zhu Shanqi and Duan Yu.
Zhu Shanqi and Duan Yu looked at each other, sighed helplessly and left angrily.
In the study room of the Liu Mansion, Liu Chuanfang, who had silver hair all over his head, seemed to be in good spirits and not as seriously ill as the old housekeeper and the outside world had rumored.
Liu Chuanfang stood in front of the window and looked at the falling yellow leaves in the courtyard, looking a little lonely.
"It's too urgent!"
Liu Qi, who was writing an article in front of the desk, stopped the brush in his hand when he heard this, looked up at his father's back and asked in confusion.
"Did father mean Uncle Zhu and Uncle Duan?"
Liu Chuanfang did not answer, but waved her hand to indicate to Liu Qi to continue writing.
As the eldest son, he is quite talented in writing and poetry, but he is not interested in official career and people's hearts. In addition, he has a timid personality, so he is destined to be unable to inherit the mantle.
Since this was the case, Liu Chuanfang no longer forced him to do anything, and just let him study with peace of mind, and never talked to him about official affairs.
On the contrary, the eldest daughter Liu Yingrong was extremely smart. She would always warn against the shortcomings of the government, and would often say things like "What if I become an official" in front of Liu Chuanfang, intentionally or unintentionally. It's a pity that I was born as a girl.
Otherwise... alas!
Liu Chuanfang couldn't help but sigh.
What he said was too urgent. Of course, he was not talking about Zhu Shanqi and Duan Yu, but Emperor Zhu Sheng.
In fact, as early as five days ago, the toxins in Liu Chuanfang's body had been eliminated under the doctor's care, and she was able to walk on her own.
But Liu Chuanfang strictly prohibited the news that he had recovered from spreading.
Just because after hearing the details of the Heaven Sacrifice Ceremony, Liu Chuanfang suddenly realized that his previous views on Zhu Sheng might be wrong, so he wanted to wait and take another look.
What happened at the court meeting this morning has reached Liu Chuanfang's ears through special channels.
Liu Chuanfang finally confirmed his suspicion. His Majesty is indeed not simple.
Before and after the heaven-sacrifice ceremony, they were still completely different people.
It’s really so forbearing! What a plan!
Was the original choice right or wrong?
Liu Chuanfang didn't see Zhu Shanqi and Duan Yu today, not because he was dissatisfied with them, but actually to protect them and himself.
After the Yong Party was eradicated, the original Baolong lineage became the most powerful political faction in the DPRK. Recently, some people even forgot to call themselves Liu Party.
Why don't they understand the principle of the moon waxing and waning, and the water overflowing?
No emperor in his right mind would allow a dominant family to appear in the court, let alone the sensitive word "party".
What is a party?
Cliques, township parties, ethnic groups, and pro-party groups gathered together for selfish interests are called parties.
Isn't this asking for trouble and death?
So not only is the current Zhu Sheng strange to Liu Chuanfang, but even people like Zhu Shanqi and Duan Yu who were originally like-minded have also changed.
He became arrogant, arrogant and arrogant, just like the original Yong Dang.
Liu Chuanfang walked to the table, and Liu Qi quickly gave up her seat.
Grabbing the brush, which was covered with ink, and pondering for a moment, Liu Chuanfang wrote a letter in one stroke.
Liu Qi on the side saw the handwriting on the letter clearly and said happily.
"It's good to go back to my hometown and live for a while. It's time for my mother's tomb to be repaired. The countryside is clean and conducive to my father's recuperation."
"You go to the palace and present this letter to His Majesty. If His Majesty asks anything, just answer it truthfully."
"Yes, father."
…
Not long after Wei Shun was sent away, the gate of Jixian Division opened, and thirteen fastmen filed out, then dispersed and left in different directions in the city.
"The Thirteen Evil Dogs are out again. I wonder who will be unlucky this time!"
A few petty officials walking out of the Xingbu Yamen opposite happened to see this scene and muttered with a hint of schadenfreude in their tone.
It was during these few days that Gu Fengxiao, Li Jun and other thirteen agents of the Ji Xian Division liked to nickname the Thirteen Evil Dogs of the Ji Xian Division.
"Keep your voice down, be careful not to be heard by someone named Rong... Hey, we're out, let's go quickly."
When Rong Fei walked out of the gate of Jixian Division, he saw several officials from the Criminal Department across the street hurriedly leaving with their heads lowered, not forgetting to look at them furtively as they walked.
Rong Fei, who had confirmed his identity as a relative of the emperor, was now a man of the hour in Kyoto. Not to mention these minor officials of fifth, sixth and seventh rank, even the ministers and ministers of various ministries could not afford to offend him.
The key thing is that Rong Fei not only has an identity and background, but also has rights. Ji Xiansi, which was originally looked down upon by everyone, has become prosperous and prosperous since Rong Fei took over. The long-forgotten rights of Ji Xian Si have also returned to people's sight.
Review and review yamen cases at all levels across the country, military supplies and supplies accounts, spy on intelligence, combat corruption, etc.
It can be said that within the borders of Dayan, there is nothing that the Jixian Division cannot control or control.
Strolling along Qingyun Street, he soon came to another lively and prosperous street that intersected it. Halfway through, Rong Fei walked into a ready-made clothing store and selected a set of moon-white gowns that were very popular among scholars. Go to the back compartment to change.
After entering the compartment, Rong Fei did not rush to change his clothes, but activated a magical power that he had rarely used since he realized it - fetal transformation.
Supernatural power: the fetus changes shape.
Either male or female, old or young, divine bird or strange beast. Can change everything in the world at will.
This magical power is rarely used, so it cannot yet reach the state of changing any object at will. It can only slightly change the appearance, skin color, and height. The duration of maintenance varies depending on the extent of physical changes. The greater the magnitude of the change, the shorter the maintenance time, and conversely, the longer the maintenance time.
Considering what he was going to do next, Rong Fei just slightly changed his face and skin color.
After changing into a moon-white gown, Rong Fei walked out of the cubicle. The shopkeeper and clerk of the clothing store couldn't help but be stunned when they saw Rong Fei after changing his clothes.
This guest was wearing an ordinary cloth shirt when he first came in. Although his appearance was more handsome than ordinary people, he had no bearing at all.
But after changing his clothes, his whole person immediately transformed into a handsome young man.
So... is this guest inherently distinguished, or does this outfit bring him out?
The shopkeeper was just surprised by the change in Rong Fei's demeanor. The waiter who had just personally measured Rong Fei's figure secretly cried out in his heart that he had seen a ghost.
This young man’s skin seems to be paler than before, and his eyebrows are much softer...
Why don't they look like the same person?
After leaving the clothing store, Rong Fei found a shop that sold the Four Treasures of the Study, picked out a folding fan, and officially transformed into a personable and gentle scholar.
Walking along the long street, I attracted the admiring eyes of many young girls and young wives.
After walking around for more than an hour, Rong Fei walked into a medical clinic - Jishi Medical Clinic.
Even Ronglan, the little elf, could tell that Hao Dongjia and Shopkeeper Dong had plans for Ji Rouer, so how could the experienced Rong Fei be unaware of it. What's more, this matter also caused the lives of Qian's mother and son, and Yu Gong will not let it go easily, regardless of his private life.
Entering Jishi Medical Center, Rong Fei pretended that he had been suffering from insomnia recently and asked the doctor to diagnose his pulse and prescribe a prescription. In fact, he took the opportunity to use his spiritual hearing power to see if he could hear any useful clues and information.
The doctor took Rong Fei's pulse and glanced at him suspiciously. After pondering for a moment, he said in a solemn tone.
"Young master's condition is quite strange. I'm afraid he has a hidden illness. I'll tell you some of the symptoms, and I'll ask you if they've happened to you before. If you stand up suddenly after squatting for a long time, you'll feel dizzy and your ears will ring..."
At this time, Rong Fei already knew through his spiritual hearing that Hao Dong's family was not in the shop, so he was not in the mood to listen to the doctor's deception, so he laughed, threw down a few coins and left.
After coming out of Jishi Medical Center, Rong Fei turned his head and looked at the crowd gathered not far away, which was Ji Rouer's free clinic stall.
After watching quietly for a while and seeing that no one was causing trouble, Rong Fei smiled and turned around to leave.
Murong Qiu Shui and Rong Lan came out of the restaurant opposite. Rong Lan sniffed with her straight little nose and pointed in one direction.
"The man named Dou went over there. Hey! Look, sister, the back of that man looks like Rong Fei."
