"Where are those bad guys?" Pao'er asked

"Two died during the fight, and one was captured alive. Isn't this tied up there?" Tiedan'er arrived.

"What about this one?"

"He must be put on trial. I will send him to the Shuntian Mansion Yamen overnight. To avoid long nights and dreams, I will interrogate him tonight together with the Shuntian Mansion waiter." Fang Shaoqin said while scratching his body unconsciously.

"Uncle, are you okay?" Chengzhe asked him

"Are you okay? Is this young master okay? Where did you ask this?" Fang Shaoqin couldn't help scratching his neck again. "Maybe it's because I didn't take a thorough bath during the day. I might still have some odor on my body." There are those beggar lice, and the body itches badly"

"Uh! Brother, when you finish your work and go home, don't touch anyone. Take a bath in water boiled with mugwort, once in the morning and evening every day. The itching should be gone within three days," the poor man said. "If you don't take a bath, The itching will get worse day by day, and eventually the skin will ulcerate, and the itching will spread from the skin to the organs, and you will die, and die miserably..."

"What are you talking about? Will having lice kill you?" Fang Shaoqin scratched his leg again
"Of course, lice will not die, but the itching powder will." Cheng Zhe said, "The poor boy sprinkled the itching powder in the 7 water tank. It was originally prepared for bad guys, but who could have imagined that you, uncle, took advantage of it."

Everyone stepped back after hearing Chengzhe's words. Everyone was a few steps away from Fang Shaoqin.
"You guys... whoever is quick will go to Shuntian Mansion first and ask Mr. Fu Yin to boil me a bucket of moxa leaf water first, and I will interrogate him while soaking it..."

Poorer, Chengzhe, and Tiedaner first went to Sanyang Zhenren's home to report that they were safe, and then were escorted back home by Tiedaner.

Brothers Chenghe and Chengzhe also went back to their mansion together. Seeing the two young masters coming back safe and sound, the disciples hurried in to report. When the prince heard that they had returned safely, he was so panicked that he fell down several times. He ran out to pick him up, and he secretly breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that both his brothers were unharmed.
Cheng and Chengzhe hurriedly went to pay their respects when they heard that the second lady was worried about their illness, but the prince persuaded them to go to the old lady's room to pay her respects first. The old lady was old and worried about them for a long time. Although she missed her mother, she still had to It’s only right to meet your grandmother first
Although it was not yet Yinshi, everyone in the mansion got up just because someone reported that the two young masters had returned safely.

At this time, the old lady was sitting on the kang with her arms around a young master crying, Mrs. Wang lived nearby, so she rushed over immediately, and wiped her tears when she saw the old lady was sad

The fourth lady had been worried about Chenghe for the past two days. She was surprised and happy to see him back. She didn't know what to do for a moment, so she could only sit aside and cry. She wanted to talk to him, but she didn't dare to cause trouble due to the crowd. This time, I felt anxious and angry
"Grandma, don't be sad anymore. You are really making your grandchildren sad. Don't hurt your body by crying anymore. It's your grandchildren's fault," Chengzhe comforted.
"Hey! Good boy, good boy, do you know that I have been very anxious these past few days? If something happened to you two brothers, wouldn't it cost your grandmother's life? Even if I die, I won't have the face to see you. All the ancestors under the Nine Springs." After saying this, the old lady cried even more fiercely.
The fourth prince was very anxious when he saw the old lady like this, "Please don't be too sad, mother will break down from crying. Now that the two of them are back, mother should be happy."

The old lady wiped her tears and was about to speak, but she saw the third lady hurried into the room. Her face, which usually showed no change of emotion, looked a little panicked today. "Oh! My son! You are back safely." ? I have been worried to death these days." As she spoke, the third lady also picked up the handkerchief to try to shed tears from the corners of her eyes.

"Thank you, Third Aunt, for caring so much. We two brothers are safe and sound. Please don't be sad," Cheng He said.
"How did you two escape from danger?" The prince sat down on the chair, took a sip of tea and asked. The third lady wiped her tears and carefully observed whether there was anything strange about them. She was ready to listen carefully to what they said, for fear that exposed myself
"The kidnappers locked us up in a dilapidated courtyard. My uncle found out where we were and led people to rescue us overnight." Chengzhe arrived
"What happened to the kidnapper?"

"There were three people who kidnapped us at that time. Two of them were beaten to death. One of them was captured alive and my uncle took him to Shuntian Mansion. My uncle wanted to interrogate him overnight." Chengzhe arrived
"Well! Shaoqin usually doesn't look very cool, but he didn't expect it to be useful at the critical moment. He did the right thing. I'm going to Shuntian Mansion now. I want to see who ate the bear's heart and leopard's guts. , How dare you attack my house..." After saying this, the prince said goodbye to the old lady and went to Shuntian Mansion.

After noisy for a long time, the old lady was tired of crying, so she asked everyone to go back and rest.
Chenghe and Chengzhe were thinking about the second lady. After saying goodbye, they immediately went back to the North Courtyard to visit the third lady. When they heard that they had caught one alive, they realized that something was wrong. As soon as they came out of the old lady's room, they hurriedly called Yun'er. She sent a message asking Mr. An to go to Baiyun Temple. She also used the excuse that she prayed to Bodhisattva every day to bless the two young masters to come back safely. Now that they had come back safely, she wanted to go to the temple early to fulfill her wish, and left the city as soon as the city gate opened at dawn. Baiyun nunnery went

The second lady's room in the North Courtyard of the palace was already brightly lit. She heard that the two young masters had returned safely and went to the old lady to say hello first. The second lady also struggled to get up and go over to take a look, but she was too weak to get off the ground. Xiang Xing persuaded Xiang Xing to persuade her with good words. At this time, the second wife was anxiously waiting.
"Mother!" The two young masters came into the room and knelt on the ground first. "Mother has been worried these past few days."

"Quickly...quickly...get up quickly! Come to mother." The second lady was very happy. The two young masters got up and sat next to the second lady. The second lady held one by the hand and couldn't help crying.

Chengzhe stretched out his hand to wipe the tears from the second lady's face, "Mom, don't be sad. Look, I haven't hurt a single hair on my head. Isn't that good?"

"Mom knows, but she's just a little scared. If something happens to you two, how will the one you call mom live in the future?"

"Don't be sad, mother. We brothers should be more careful in the future." Cheng He couldn't help but advise him when he saw the second lady was so sad.

The second lady wiped away her tears and ordered Xiang Xing to prepare food and bathing for the two young masters.

Chenghe took the decoction brought by Xiang Xing and served the second lady to take the medicine. The second lady drank the decoction in one gulp and was drinking tea when he suddenly thought of Fang Shaoqin: "Where is your uncle?"

"Back to mother, my uncle went to Shuntian Mansion. When he rescued us, he captured the kidnapper alive. My uncle wants to interrogate him immediately." Chengzhe replied, "The kidnapper is not vicious. He is pretty good. He just keeps talking about the above." They told us that we must die. Pao'er and I estimate that they still have a leader, and that person also thinks he has a grudge against Pao'er, because they also want Pao'er to die."

The second lady handed the teacup in her hand to Chenghe, picked up the handkerchief and wiped her mouth, "How is the poor boy doing now?"

"If you go back to your mother, ask his foster brother to send her back, and she is not injured," Chenghe said.
Just as Xiang Xing came into the house to invite the two young masters to have a meal, Cheng and Cheng Zhe left

"Is there anything going on in the west courtyard?" Seeing the two young masters going out, the second lady asked Xiang Xing.

"Back to the master, the third lady left the city early in the morning, saying she was going to Baiyun Temple to fulfill her vow..."
