Yun Yao said without hiding anything: "I saw your father in the basement of the imperial study."

Hearing this, Fifth Zishu let go of his hand, and the splicing figurine in his hand fell to the ground. He walked towards Yunyao without hesitation, stepped on it, and the splicing figurine made a sound of shattering.

The fifth son ignored it, put his hands on Yunyao's shoulders, and asked excitedly, "My father is still alive?"

Yun Yao nodded and said, "He's still alive, but his condition is very bad, and he seems to have suffered a lot."

Fifth Zishu's expression was in a trance, and a lost and recovered smile rose from the corner of his mouth, and he asked urgently, "Where is it, I'm going to save him."

Seeing his excited expression, Yun Yao gritted his teeth and said, "There is a secret passage under the desk in the imperial study, but now there are guards and officers and soldiers everywhere in the palace, we can't get through."

"I don't care." Fifth Son Shu said with red eyes, "I'm going to save him, I can't let him stay in that kind of ghostly place."

After finishing speaking, he rushed out like crazy, and the door was slammed shut by his uncontrollable force.

Almost a moment later, there was the sound of weapons colliding outside, and Yun Yao chased him out, and sure enough, he saw that Fifth Zishu had already fought with the officials, and several officials had already fallen to the ground.

Yun Yao hurriedly stepped forward to stop her. Of course she is not a person who obeys the rules, and she doesn't want Fifth Son Shu's father to suffer in the basement, but the security in the palace is too strict, and the scale is already comparable to that of the army. This is not the time to head-on .

The movement here quickly attracted Gu Yuefei's attention. He came wearing an official uniform, with a little fatigue on his face, and it seemed that he hadn't rested at all.

Seeing this scene, Gu Yuefei said with a gloomy face: "It's so late, the pavilion master doesn't have a good rest, why is he acting so aggressively?"

He looked unkind, and looked at Fifth Zishu with deep scrutiny and suspicion, as if he had found some terrible evidence from the Tianji Pavilion.

Now she doesn't care too much, Yun Yao is not even sure if the old emperor was killed by the fifth son book, she only knows that if the father of the fifth son book has something wrong in the basement, he is afraid that he will go crazy.

Seeing that the fifth son was so excited that he didn't want to think about it, Yun Yao chose to believe Gu Yuefei, and wrote for the fifth son: "The father of the pavilion master is locked in the palace, and if he is not rescued, his life may be in danger."

Gu Yuefei looked at Yun Yao's face in surprise, holding back his doubts and said, "Save people first, and we'll talk about the rest when we come back."

Yun Yao looked at Gu Yuefei gratefully, and said with a sigh of relief, "I'll show you the way."

Gu Yuefei brought more than a dozen officials and followed Yun Yao to the imperial study room, got in one by one from under the desk, and came to this vast basement again.

The leading officer held a lamp to bring a little light into the basement.

The fifth son-shu rushed in, and soon found the unkempt fifth possession.

At this moment, Fifth Zang was lying on the cold ground and fell asleep, his matted hair was knotted, and his body was covered with holes and dried blood.

Fifth Zishu's heart throbbed, he took off his coat and put it on Fifth Zang, hugged him and rushed out all the way, towards the Tai Hospital.

The officials behind him tried their best to keep up with him, and they managed to keep up with him.

Gu Yuefei did not leave the basement, he looked around carefully, and broke open the dozens of rooms that were originally locked, revealing the filthy scene inside.

These rooms are filled with all kinds of blood-stained instruments of torture. In some rooms, people have already been chained to death. Just looking at the bones, you can vaguely tell that they are all empty.

Gu Yuefei seldom covered his nose, thinking of Concubine Duan's words, he clenched his fists a little bit, feeling inexplicably irritable.

He checked the rooms one by one before exiting the secret passage and went to Tai Hospital to check the situation of the Fifth Tibetan.

Years of imprisonment had made Fifth Cang skinny, and he was lying quietly on the bed, being carefully looked after by the imperial physicians.

The imperial physician said with a sad face: "I am afraid that the former pavilion master will not have much time."

Hearing this sentence, Fifth Son Shu was not as excited as he was at the beginning. He gripped the quilt tightly and said with a heavy heart, "I'm willing to pay as much as I want. Can it make my father better?"

The imperial doctor was deeply sympathetic, and sighed out of his beard: "We will do everything we can, but the best situation for the old pavilion master is only one month."

Fifth Zishu didn't speak any more, he looked at Fifth Zang silently, and sat beside him silently.

In such a painful situation, Gu Yuefei did not let go of the opportunity to investigate the case. He walked to Fifth Zishu and said, "We found a box and a letter in Tianji Pavilion. Inside the box was a severed hand. turned into bones."

Fifth Zishu smiled lightly, rubbed his temples, pointed to the door and said, "Let's go out and talk."

Seeing that the fifth son-shu had calmed down, Yun Yao didn't stay here any longer, and went back to the wing to rest.

When he came to the yard, the fifth son said directly: "You have already read the contents of the letter. The severed hand belongs to my father. You should be able to guess about the things. What else can you ask?"

Gu Yuefei stroked the notebook on his waist and said, "I want to hear from the pavilion master directly, it would be even better if he could directly confess his guilt."

He took out the notebook, and there was a pencil in it, which was made by the young pavilion master in front of him when he was seven years old, which perfectly solved the shortcomings of pen and ink being inconvenient to carry.

The original intention of the Fifth Son Book was to give poor people who could not afford a pen, ink, paper and inkstone the opportunity to study. Unexpectedly, the pencil was soon monopolized and became a plaything of the nobles.

The fifth sonshu looked at the pencil drawn out by Gu Yuefei and said, "Unfortunately, I am not the murderer, but I do have obvious murderous intentions."

A dark light flashed in his eyes, and he said with a calm face: "Tianji Pavilion is beautiful on the surface, but in fact it has been controlled by the emperor. My father was forced to do a lot of ridiculous things when he was young. Do those dirty things and secretly fight against the emperor."

"Father is not a naive person. He also secretly accumulated a lot of power. Although he was suppressed by the emperor, he was barely able to hold his own. In fact, he has no ambitions. He only wants our family to live well."

"Everything was broken by my stupidity. At that time, I didn't know that the current emperor is so unbearable. I was only eager to show my ability to win glory for the family. I didn't expect to be targeted by the emperor."

"Three years ago, the emperor took my father away and forced me to do those unspeakable bad things. I didn't want to, so he cut off my father's hand and sent it to me, and wrote that threatening letter."

"My mother was already in poor health and soon couldn't bear the pressure and left. Why is my father alive? I obeyed the emperor's request and prayed that he would let my father go."

"In the past three years, I have indirectly killed many people, but I still don't know my father's safety. So I became murderous and wanted to kill the emperor to save my father, but I haven't figured out a way yet."
