Dayong Nu sentenced to death

After saying this, Jin Xu turned and left.

Qichi stood blankly in the courtyard, facing the cold wind, and before the joy of being forgiven could spread, he was enveloped in a bone-chilling chill.

He looked at Zhu Yan beside him, wanted to say something, but swallowed it back.

"You always have ideas."

Zhu Yan said, "Young master usually indulges and doesn't hear about it, because he trusts you to handle these things well, but this time you are too wrong."

"Zhuyan, I..."

"It's useless for you to refute. The shadow thorn is up to you to mobilize. The girl and Mr. Jin left the boat, and Mr. Jin gave orders first, so you should send someone to accompany you. I don't believe that no one has come to ask you for instructions."

"...It is true that I have been here, but I thought that Mr. Jin would let Zhuang Bo accompany him in the dark, and Miss Su is not weak in martial arts, so she can handle any situation."

Xi Chi explained.

"In the end, you're just betting. You're betting that nothing will happen. You're betting on chance and coincidence. But Xichi, you've forgotten who you are. You put the choice in your heart above the master's decision, and you've already overstepped your duty."

The young master is indifferent but never vents his anger. The heavy punishment of Xi Chi exceeded everyone's expectations, but Zhu Yan figured out the reason faster than them.

His words were too heavy.

Like a giant stick falling from the top of his head, Xichi's face turned pale, and his figure was on the verge of falling. So, is this so?
"You know I'm not..."

He hastily excused himself.

"I know."

Zhu Yan supported him, nodded and said: "My lord also knows, so he just reprimanded Li and returned to Beijing to be punished, instead of killing him on the spot."

"Let's go back."

The two turned around and walked out. Xichi's footsteps were heavy and light, and he walked a little staggeringly, as if he had encountered a catastrophe.

Zhu Yan knew that he was not feeling well at the moment, so he sighed secretly, and said with relief: "Fortunately, the young master said not to be an example, and I think I won't care about it this time. Young master Jin is right, you really should thank the girl."

"I know."

Xichi nodded, feeling a little grateful from the bottom of his heart.

If it wasn't for her, he would definitely not escape the heavy punishment this time, and he might be grounded or transferred from afar in the next year or two. This kind of result is absolutely unbearable for him.

"It's good if you know, you should have learned from me a long time ago. Those who know the current affairs are heroes. The son Jinkou Yuyan admitted this marriage to the outside world, and the old man made the decision. Mingpei is the proof. The girl will be our princess sooner or later."

The two have both fame and affection.

Isn't this a match made in heaven, fairy couple?

Those of them who are subordinates should be happy, loyal support, and cooperative support are the best choices.

This time, Xichi remembered Zhu Yan's words verbatim in his heart. At the end, he said uneasy: "You said it really doesn't matter if your son enters the water?"

"Why don't you ask?"

Zhu Yan laughed.

"Then forget it."

Qi Chi shook his head, now he won't stand out in front of the young master.

"Don't worry, that incident has been going on for many years, and the influence may have faded long ago. You can see that the son and his boat are not different, so it is not a big problem."

"hope so."

When he reached the fork in the road, Xichi had no intention of going back to rest, so he turned around and headed in another direction.

"What are you doing in the middle of the night?"

Zhu Yan followed quickly.

"Interrogation."

"Who is the trial?"

Qi Chi glanced at him, his face was no longer hesitant, and he regained his usual calmness, "Those killers who were besieging and suppressing were proficient in water, and they were faster than fish in the water, but they were still caught by Shadow Spikes."

"That's fine, let's go together."

Zhu Yan walked side by side with him, cursing bitterly: "These people came just by coincidence. The girl said that there is something wrong with the incense burned in Tianxianglou, and it is probably related to the bone leaves. Who knew that before they had time to investigate, they called coming."

"The Tianxianglou painting boat was burned, He Ciwen was beheaded, and the clues that were obtained with great difficulty were cut off like this. I am really pissed off."

Qi Chi said in a calm tone: "The officials in Yunzhou organized people to rescue people at Jingpo Lake. Before I came back, I asked him to detain all the people present in Huafang in the name of my son. It was originally to prevent those killers from mixing with the crowd and taking the opportunity to escape. , this is the right time to ask."

"Okay you."

Zhu Yan grabbed his shoulders and patted him vigorously, "Then let's go, and make amends."

"Ah."

The figures of the two disappeared into the darkness.

Yan Yun didn't hold a lamp, and sat quietly on the grand master's chair behind the table, rubbing the remaining warmth on the other hand with his fingertips.

Peaceful and calm.

He thought that after going through turmoil tonight, his emotions would be difficult to calm down, but because of that sentence "Yan Yun, you are so kind", all his anger was calmed down.

Those lingering hostility, the lingering trembling, the clamoring memories that came wave after wave...

It faded away in her low-browed smile.

"crazy girl……"

He murmured in a low voice, seeming helpless and wryly smiling, all his emotions were restrained in the darkness, and soon, everything was silent again.

They went back to the city and left. The officials in Yunzhou and the prefect of Hanyang who were dug out of the quilt in the middle of the night worked hard all night, and finally rescued those people.

Of course, there are also particularly unlucky ones.

A wealthy businessman jumped into the water just after escaping from the fire. The falling beam hit his forehead and died instantly.

There are also some who slept to death in the painting boat and had no chance of escape at all.

After saving people, salvaging the driftwood and the wreckage of the painting boat, appeasing the frightened superiors, and apologizing to Lu Xiaozhong, the prefect was so busy that he was dizzy and wished he could have more hands and feet.

When he went, Zai Xiaozuka had just got up, and the maidservants came in one after another carrying a set of toilet utensils made of gold, silver and jade, and the sound of needles dropping could be heard in the surroundings.

The prefect of Hanyang stood outside respectfully, waiting to be summoned.

After an unknown amount of time, he felt that his legs were going to go numb. A guard in blue stepped out and nodded slightly to him, "My lord, please."

"Thank you."

The prefect straightened his crown and hat, walked in with his head down, stopped when he was still some distance away from his superior, bowed his hands together and said, "I will see Mr. Xiaozuka."

"Exemption."

Lu Heng only said that he was exempt from courtesy but did not say that he would watch the seats, so the eunuch could only stand and quietly glanced up, and saw the innocent figure leaning on the couch, and a few maidservants kneeling beside him, carrying some side dishes and Pastry, serving him breakfast.

"Come here so early, what's the matter?"

Lu Heng asked lazily.

The eunuch's heart tightened, he hurriedly lowered his head, briefly described what happened last night, then leaned over to confess his guilt, and said a lot of good things, but Lu Heng's expression was calm and he didn't respond.

After he finished speaking, Zai Xiaozuka chuckled lightly and said, "If you want to accuse me, I'm afraid you have found the wrong person. The one who was frightened last night was not this officer, but Prince Yan."

"Yan... Yan Shizi!"

The prefect was terrified immediately, and raised his head in disbelief.

Seeing his appearance, Lu Heng smiled again, "It seems that the prefect's information is inaccurate. It's okay for me, you'd better go back early and find out. It's more important to think about how to pass away."

After speaking, Lu Heng waved his hand, signaling him to back down.

When the prefect left, he was out of his mind, as if struck by lightning, why didn't anyone tell him that the Shizi was there at that time!
