Rong Mo suddenly became anxious: "That thousand-year-old Ganoderma lucidum is so precious, it will be used for the Crown Princess's breakthrough in the future."
The Crown Princess shook her head: "No matter how precious the elixir is, no one treasures it. Mr. Zu is the concubine of the East Palace. He was also injured because of my case. This medicine just helps him recover from his injuries. Why, do you still need me?"
Are you going to get it yourself?"
"I don't dare." Rong Mo pouted and reluctantly turned to the inner room.
"Tsk tsk tsk, this little girl is quite interesting to you." Mi Li's voice rang in her mind. Apparently she saw something interesting and came up with it again.
Zu An ignored her and saluted Bi Linglong: "Thank you, Crown Princess!"
Mi Li asked curiously: "You are really thick-skinned. You don't even know how to refuse such a precious thing before accepting it?"
Zu An secretly replied: "You don't understand this. In my hometown, there is a routine of borrowing books between men and women, because if you borrow something, you must return it. This will give you more reasons to meet next time, and the relationship between the two parties will be weakened.
It started to get hotter. This time, I only got a little face benefit from declining, but I didn’t get any benefits at all. On the contrary, I accepted her gift, and the goodwill between the two of us went up a level. Besides, this thing seems to be very important to him.
If I give it to her when she needs it in the future, wouldn't it be able to gain her favor again?"
Mi Li was dumbfounded after hearing this. After a while, she finally let out a breath: "Where in your hometown, the routines are so deep."
Zu An replied with a nostalgic look on his face: "It's a place where old drivers are everywhere, and Qiu Mingshan's car god is everywhere..."
At this moment, Kung Fu Rong Mo had already come out of the inner room, holding a brocade box with a red cloth in his hand and came to Zu An.
Although they were separated by a box, they could still feel the strong vitality. Zu An thanked the Crown Princess again.
There was a hint of tenderness in the eyes of the Crown Princess: "You should take a good rest these days, and leave the affairs of the Shi family to me."
Zu An knew that she was hinting to him that she would take the opportunity to put an end to what happened last time, and he also winked at her to show that he understood.
The princess's face turned red. She quickly glanced around and breathed a sigh of relief when she saw that no one else had noticed. This guy was so bold. He actually teased her so openly. Huh, let him be spared today because of his injuries.
once.
When Zu An came out of the East Palace, the Crown Princess sent Pu Duandiao and Jiaosi Stick to take him to the Imperial Hospital.
On the way, the two people sighed: "In these years, I have never seen the Crown Princess treat anyone so kindly."
"Yes, even I have some suspicions that Brother Zu is having an affair with the Crown Princess."
Zu An: "..."
"You are looking for death, how dare you say such things?"
"We, the third brother, are joking in private. Besides, the fact that the Crown Princess still treats Brother Zu like this after the scandal happened doesn't just show that she has a clear conscience."
"That's true, but if it weren't for the fact that the Crown Princess's status is so sensitive, I would really rather she be with Brother Zu. It has been too difficult for the Crown Princess to be alone these years, and the Crown Prince cannot protect her from wind and rain, but needs her to protect her."
"I'm going to choke you. You still talk about me. What you say is even more like seeking death."
…
In the end, Zu An was really upset and sent the two of them away. His injuries have basically recovered now. Wouldn't it be exposed if he went to the Tai Hospital?
He was too lazy to leave the palace, but returned to the Baisha Courtyard to rest for an hour.
Soon I got the news that Shi Jun was captured.
Zu An immediately put on his gold medal eleven outfit and went to Xiulou. He had many questions that needed Shi Jun to answer.
Now he has a high prestige in the hearts of the Embroidered Clothes Messenger. Although this case is no longer under his control, no one will stop him out of curiosity. Anyway, Commander Zhu Xie is currently interrogating the more important Shi Tong about the siege crossbow and
Those things about military masters.
Shi Jun was sitting in the cell, his hair was messy, he was completely lost, and he no longer looked as high-spirited as before.
When he heard someone coming in, he said weakly: "Don't ask me, our family has a death-free medal, I won't say anything,"
Zu An laughed: "But you don't have the death-free medal with you now."
Hearing his voice, Shi Jun was startled. He turned around to look at that familiar figure, and his pupils shrank instantly. Thinking back on the tragic experience at his hands last time, he still had nightmares these days.
Zu An also stopped smiling: "I don't want to waste time, I'll ask you questions, otherwise don't blame me for letting you taste life worse than death again."
"Okay, okay, my lord, please excuse me." Shi Jun immediately smiled apologetically. A good man will not suffer the immediate loss. He will deal with this big devil first. Father will definitely have a way to save us.
"How did you and Xinrui meet?"
Shi Jun looked hesitant, but still replied: "As a minister of Huangmen these years, it is very convenient for me to enter and exit the palace. Once on the way, I accidentally bumped into a panicked palace maid at the corner. She kept looking like
I apologized, but when I saw her weak and frightened eyes, I couldn't bear to punish her. Later, she thanked me and specially sent me Baihua tea, and I found out that she was Xin Rui, the maid of Baihua Palace..."
Recalling the past events, Shi Jun's eyes flashed with tenderness. It was obvious that he was having a happy time with that charming palace maid.
Zu An asked hurriedly: "Did she hit you or did you hit her?"
Shi Jun frowned: "I am already responsible for supervising the behavior of all officials, so how could I be so reckless? But what does it matter if she bumps into me?"
"It's nothing," Zu An smiled, "You guys got better after that?"
Shi Jun nodded: "Originally she was a palace maid, and all the women in the palace belonged to the emperor. I didn't dare to touch her. But she told me that she had been in the palace since she was very young. Now that the deadline is coming, then she will
She is qualified to leave the palace. I originally had a good impression of her, and thought that I could marry her back to my family afterwards, so our relationship became better and better over time."
"Later I learned that she still had a mother and younger brother in her hometown, so I sent someone to bring them to the capital for resettlement. But for some reason, she had a quarrel with me over this matter." Shi Jun was a little confused, "But
Soon we reconciled again and started thinking about the future."
Zu An said sarcastically: "That sounds nice. You describe yourself as an affectionate man. Unfortunately, you may have other motives for contacting her. You just took a fancy to her status as a maid of Baihua Palace, thinking that sooner or later you would meet her."
It worked, and sure enough, she was later sent to frame the Crown Princess and Zu An, and as for bringing her mother and brother to the capital, they must have been used as hostages."
Shi Jun's expression changed: "I don't know what you are talking about!"
Zu An smiled: "You don't have to deny it. It's meaningless now. Your Shi family is doomed anyway."
Shi Jun knew that what he said was the truth. The assassination failed but everyone was caught. They were indeed in danger. The only thing they could hope for now was to see whether the death-free medal could save him.
He gritted his teeth and said, his eyes full of resentment: "It's all her brother's fault. If he hadn't sneaked out and been discovered by the Embroidered Clothes Messenger, how could we be so passive and forced to take risks?
.”
"In order to save Hua Yao, you had to sacrifice the gambling house owner. In fact, I should have thought that your Shi family is behind the gambling house. You must know that you secretly supported Mei Chaofeng to open the gambling house in Mingyue City." Zu An sighed.
One breath.
Shi Jun had a strange look on his face, and was shocked in his heart. The embroidered cloth messenger's intelligence was so powerful that he even knew about this.
Zu An said: "So you and King Wu joined forces to lure Zu An to Xinrui's home, intending to kill him there and put all the blame on him. Are you going to die without any evidence?"
"King Wu, what King Wu?" Shi Jun looked confused.
Seeing that he didn't look like he was pretending, Zu An couldn't help but change his expression.
