Chapter 243 Crisis

Fan Zhai posted a seal, and Li's house crept up and down, and did not dare to get out of the atmosphere. One or two neighbors separated dozens of feet away had long been so scared that the door was closed, and there was a sense of timidity and confusion in the silence of Liushu Hutong.

Far from the entrance of the alley, Yu Yuanshan, who had just got the letter, tightened his face and squeezed his lips into a line. He was anxious but rushed to the willow alley as if nothing had happened. As soon as he stepped on half a foot to the entrance of the alley, he saw the guard with wild goose wings and nailed like nails at the gate of Li's house. He hurriedly stopped his steps and twisted his body abruptly. , pretending to look around as if looking for a way, raised his hand, as if patting his head with chagrin, strode across the alley and flashed aside.

That's the guard of King Liang's Mansion! Wait outside the door, and the alert spread straight to the gate. The prince must be in the house! Yu Yuanshan exhaled a long breath, and his straight body collapsed a lot softly. Blessed by Buddha and Bodhisattva! Yu Yuanshan walked a few steps slowly and thought about it carefully. He turned his head to find the teahouse facing the entrance of the alley. He went in and chose a window seat and sat down. He asked for a bowl of tea. He drank it slowly and looked carefully at the mouth of the alley and waited for Su Zicheng to come out.

The door of Li's house was nailed, and it was definitely Su Zicheng's guard. Su Zicheng sat in the armchair in Wei Shuisheng's house in the lotus garden, took a cup of tea, glanced around a few times, and his eyes fell on the sleepless Wei Shuisheng, and then moved from Wei Shuisheng to Li Xiaoyao sitting on the bedside chair, but for an hour or two, Li Xiaoyao was as haggard as a lost flower. Su Zicheng looked at Li Xiaoyao sadly, but he didn't know what to say. He stayed for a long time and coughed gently. He looked at Li Xiaoyao and asked, "Have you used lunch?" Li Xiaoyao was stunned before he realized it. He didn't know whether to nod or shake his head. Su Zicheng frowned and looked at Mother Zhang with sharp eyes. Mother Zhang gently trembled and replied timidly, "Master Hui, the girl is too sad to eat."

Li Xiaoyao turned his head and stared at Su Zicheng with great concentration. Su Zicheng did not care about scolding Mother Zhang. Facing Li Xiaoyao's eyes, he found that Li Xiaoyao's eyes were staring at him, but he crossed him again. He didn't know where he saw. Su Zicheng was inexplicably confused by her and gradually became uncomfortable. Li Xiaoyao suddenly With a long sigh, he slowly stood up, walked to the window, reached out and pushed the half-open window to the bottom. Su Zicheng hurriedly followed him to the window, stood behind Li Xiaoyao and looked down at her. Mother Zhang swept the two, quietly motioned the maids standing in the room, and retreated lightly. Xi'an hesitated and quickly followed Go out.

Li Xiaoyao looked at the green Lingxiao outside the window and was stunned for a long time. He turned his head to look at Su Zicheng and said in a low voice, "Thank you for coming to visit. Brother Shuisheng is fine. I'm fine. Thank you very much." Su Zicheng was stunned and was about to speak when Li Xiaoyao lowered his eyes and then asked, "Have you tried to find out the origin of the assassin?"

"Well, Wu Di came here. The main person is Prime Minister Lin's nephew, and there is also a monk named Zhijing." Su Zicheng replied simply and clearly. Li Xiaoyao looked up at Su Zicheng in astonishment. He stayed for a moment, closed his eyes and laughed out loud. Su Zicheng was laughed a little inexplicably by her. Li Xiaoyao fell back two steps, leaned against the window sill, looked at Su Zicheng with a wry smile, "It seems that drinking and one thought are all predetermined. I did the cause and let Shuisheng Brother Bear the consequences." Su Zicheng reacted in an instant, subconsciously raised his chin and said fiercely, "What's a drink? What does this have to do with you? Wu Di's Rebellion and Lin Xiang's death are all self-causes! If there is any effect, I'll take care of it!" Li Xiaoyao looked up at Su Zicheng, opened her mouth and swallowed her words. She had her reasons, but she didn't have to say more to him.

"Lin Xiang's nephew is a famous scholar of Wu, hum! Extremely stupid! If it's not..." Su Zicheng swallowed the following words and abruptly received the next sentence: "It's not enough, and there's more than enough failure. Except for death, it's assassination, hum!"

"Famous scholars and monks, beautiful and useless. If it hadn't happened to be a more stupid person, there would have been no such close opportunity." Li Xiaoyao turned his head and looked at the sleepy Wei Shuisheng, with bottomless sourness in his voice. Su Zicheng's nose was sore by her voice. He reached out and stroked Li Xiaoyao's shoulder and comforted him in a warm voice, "Don't be sad. It's not a big deal. Everyone is in my house. You..." Li Xiaoyao gently dodged Su Zicheng's He looked up at him and asked, "Have you caught two people?"

"Not yet. I found a place to live. It seems that I ran out of the city early this morning. Mingzhu took someone to chase him. Don't worry, I won't let him run away." Su Zicheng slowly lowered his arm awkwardly and lost, and said with his back uncomily. Li Xiaoyao looked up at Su Zicheng and asked, "If someone comes back, the prince is going to hand it over to the Ministry of Criminal Justice or..."

"I'm about to discuss with you, but after all, I can't avoid the Fan family, don't you think?" Su Zicheng inquired, and Li Xiaoyao half lowered his head and said in a low and clear voice, "Mr. Lin and Zhijing, famous scholars and monks, almost everyone in Taiping Mansion, if the prince will send troops in the future, at least there is an excuse for this assassination." Su Zicheng breathed a long sigh of relief, raised his eyebrows impatiently, smiled excitedly and said, "I knew you were the same as I thought! What a great gift! I plan to let the Ministry of Criminal Justice have a good trial, and then send people to Wudi to hand over the national letter. If we don't destroy the Lin family, we can't calm the anger of Beiping! If the Empress Dowager Wu destroys the Lin family," Li Xiaoyao shook her head gently. Su Zicheng nodded and agreed, "Yes, the Empress Dowager Wu will never destroy the Lin family. If she doesn't do it, I have to do it myself!" Su Zicheng's smile was faintly. Li Xiaoyao tilted his head and looked at him and answered seriously, "If the Empress Dowager Wu is willing to destroy the Lin family and then compensate us for the military expenses with knives and guns, we will immediately withdraw from Huainan Road. If we refuse, we have to occupy it first. There is no way." Su Zicheng smiled and nodded repeatedly. Li Xiaoyao breathed softly and whispered, "As for the Fan family, the state-owned national law, Xiaoyao dares not commit crimes against the public." Su Zicheng looked at Li Xiaoyao unexpectedly, turned his head to look at Wei Shuisheng, and then turned to look at Li Xiaoyao. After a long time, he whispered, "Don't be careful about this. Everything has me." Li Xiaoyao lowered her head and did not answer. The room was silent for a long time. Li Xiaoyao stepped back half a step and whispered, "Thank you, my lord. I'll take a few days off and wait for the aquatic brother to get better." Su Zicheng frowned and thought for a moment and promised, "Well, although Wei Shuisheng is fine, he is seriously injured. You can take good care of him at home for a few days. Don't think too much. If you have me, you will never be bullied." Li Xiaoyao said softly, "Uh-huh", and Su Zicheng stood for a moment before saying goodbye, "You should also have a good rest. Later, I will ask Dr. Huang to come to diagnose your pulse. If you need anything, let Xi'an go back to the house to get it. Don't think too much."

Li Xiaoyao agreed one by one and sent Su Zicheng out of the courtyard. Su Zicheng turned around and stopped her: "Don't send her away. You should also have a good rest. I'll come to see you again in the evening." Li Xiaoyao hesitated and stopped sending it out. Wisteria and Danyue followed Li Xiaoyao to stop walking. Mother Zhang, Mother Lu and others followed Su Zicheng and the servants to the door.

After passing the second door, Su Zicheng suddenly stopped walking, turned his head to look at Mother Zhang and asked, "Which company has come to visit?"

"Your Majesty, no one has come yet." Mother Zhang bowed and answered quickly. Su Zicheng took a deep breath and turned out of the door with a cold face.

Yu Yuanshan guarded Su Zicheng and was surrounded by small men and guards and left the willow hutong. He settled the bill easily and went to Li's house to visit Li Xiaoyao and Wei Shuisheng.

Su Zicheng got off his horse at the gate of King Liang's mansion, stopped in the second gate, turned his head and looked at Dongping and ordered, "Tell Li Zongliang about this. If he wants to come back, allow him to come back!"

Yes! On the other side of the fifth master?" Dongping hurriedly chased, and Su Zicheng ordered without looking back, "Don't mention it." Dongping answered heavily, retreated to the next ear room and wrote a letter. After thinking about it, he burned the letter, said a few words briefly with bamboo paper, rolled it into a very small paper tube, turned into the pigeon room next to him, asked for a carrier pigeon, and sent the letter out.

In the evening, when Su Zicheng came to Li's house, Shuiyan had come to see Wei Shuisheng and left a box of old mountain ginseng. Li Xiaoyao huddled on the low couch temporarily moved in front of Wei Shuisheng's bed and fell asleep. Su Zicheng stood in front of the couch for a long time before retreating to the yard and asked Mother Zhang to come and ask Li Xiaoyao in detail. In the afternoon, after eating and living, Dr. Huang diagnosed his pulse and didn't say anything bad, so he came back with a little relieved.

Sister Zhang and others did not dare to disturb the lotus garden. Go back, but they were worried. They were only busy in the house. Mother Zhang sent letters back and forth. Several people gradually knew the cause and effect. Mother Zhang sighed and persuaded, "Several grandmothers go back first. It seems that the case of the Fan family will not be settled for a while. I asked the girl, aunt Mother said that all the people who should be put in prison were taken in. Jiang Da/Grandma was relieved. Xi'an said that people are still in Liang Wangfu at this time. If there is any change later, I will send a message to several grandmothers and go back first. The girl said that what should be done is what to do. Sister Zhang breathed a sigh of relief, sighed again, thought for a moment, looked at Mother Zhang and sighed, "Alas! Like Xiaowu, the second master's hand is to go back. Isn't this the same as that of a cat scratching? I will come back early tomorrow morning. I used to be on the mountain. If anything happens, I can still cook. Now... Why am I getting more and more useless?"

"Don't say that, the third grandma is like that. We are the only girls in Mankaiping Mansion and Manbeiping. If it's useless, it's useless. Don't make trouble for the girl. Several grandmothers go back first and settle down the house. If there is anything, I'll ask someone to invite some grandmothers." Mother Zhang quickly relieved Sister Zhang and the crowd and sent them back.
