The case is closed, and Fu Jingene is ready to return to Beijing.

Fu Jingene and He Meng said: "These days, thanks to the general's care, Jingene has benefited a lot. I didn't drink enough at the last banquet, and before I left, I wanted to have a good drink with the general and hoped that the general would enjoy it. ”

He Meng shook his head and said, "The post station is too small to seat so many people, and I can't let Master Fu break the bank." The banquet was still held in my general's mansion, and it happened that my brother was leaving, so I saw him off. ”

The first reception banquet and the second farewell banquet were good.

Fu Jingene should take a bite.

Back at the post station, Fu Jingene summoned Ke Heng and said, "Tomorrow night, He Meng will hold a farewell banquet for me, and you will all go to participate in it then." ”

Ke Heng's face changed, and he said, "My lord, didn't you say that you would hold a banquet at the post station before?" How did it change to the General's Palace. ”

Fu Jingene was not surprised, and said: "He Meng is a very life-saving person, knowing that I am checking where he will come to the post station. The General's Mansion is his territory, and he is relieved to hold banquets there. ”

Ke Heng said with some concern: "But if we want to join the general's mansion again, we don't have the slightest chance of winning, and once we fail, we will all die." ”

"What, scared?"

Ke Heng shook his head and said, "Don't be afraid." My lord, if these people really want to kill us at that time, you don't care about us running on our own. When the case is over, I hope that the Lord will take Hermon's head to pay our respects. ”

Fu Jingene didn't say anything of relief this time, because he couldn't predict what would happen tomorrow: "I just hope that everything will go well tomorrow." ”

At noon on the second day, Fu Jingene knew that for this farewell banquet, He Meng invited some military generals, and also invited some civil officials.

The eighth child asked a little puzzled: "My lord, why did He Meng invite these people from Zhou Jiang and the Hezhou prefect, what kind of medicine is he selling in this gourd?" ”

Fu Jingene shook his head and said, "I don't know." ”

It's just that no matter what Hemon's purpose is, today's banquet is destined to be a bad drink.

Zhou Jiang went to Guan Yanlei after receiving the invitation: "My lord, two days ago, you said that Taisun Hall would have a reply in the next two days, why hasn't there been any movement until now." ”

Guan Yanlei shook his head and said, "I don't know, maybe something happened." ”

Zhou Jiang said hesitantly: "My lord, will His Royal Highness not punish him?" This case, just like that, ended inexplicably? ”

Guan Yanlei pretended to be surprised and asked, "Why do you think like this?" ”

"Now it is rumored outside that the minister is the male favorite of His Royal Highness Taisun, and he is obedient to him. Will he be connived at this time, and the theft of weapons will not be solved? ”

When Guan Yanlei heard this, he coughed violently again. After half a ring, he covered his mouth with fear and said, "W-Where did this rumor come from?" ”

Zhou Jiang said: "Hezhou City has spread all over the city, as for who spread it, I don't know." I didn't believe it at first, but now I do. ”

Fu Jingene not only found out that the case was a mess, but also greedy for money, and he didn't show anything particularly outstanding in the whole process. So he can't doubt it.

Guan Yanlei said: "Zhou Jiang, you immediately go to check to see who spread the rumors, and if you catch it, you must be severely punished." ”

Afraid that he didn't know the seriousness of the matter, Guan Yanlei said: "If this matter is reported back to the capital, we won't be able to eat and walk around." ”

This rumor has seriously damaged the image of His Royal Highness Taisun, but His Royal Highness Taisun is not looking for death when he smears him.

Zhou Jiang sighed and said, "My lord, this must have been done by He Meng. His purpose is to damage the image of His Royal Highness Taisun, so that the soldiers in the army think that His Royal Highness Taisun is a dishonest and mediocre prince. ”

It's one thing to know, it's another to check. Now that He Meng is in Hezhou, his hands and eyes are all over the sky, if he knows that he is checking him, wouldn't he be an old birthday star who hanged himself for a long time.

Guan Yanlei coughed violently again, and when he coughed back, he couldn't help but cover his mouth with a handkerchief. When I took the handkerchief away from my mouth, I saw that it was a shocking red color.

Zhou Jiang was frightened: "My lord, you are ......"

Guan Yanlei put down the handkerchief with a dejected face, and said in a very soft voice: "Life and death are destined for wealth and wealth, I only hope to see the wicked being brought to justice before I die." “

This wicked person naturally refers to He Meng, Mao Dongfang and others.

When he said this, he fainted.

While waiting for the doctor, Zhou Jiang asked the big butler who was guarding the side with an anxious face: "How long has the adult been like this?" ”

"Five days ago, there was blood in the sputum."

Zhou Jiang said with some unacceptability: "Why don't you tell me about such a big thing?" ”

The chief housekeeper shook his head and said: "The master said that you can't be distracted by the whole investigation, who wants to investigate for half a month but it is such a result, my master was so angry that he coughed up blood yesterday." ”

Zhou Jiang was uncomfortable.

Soon, Dr. Jin, who specializes in treating Guan Yanlei, came over. He took Guan Yanlei's pulse, sighed and went outside to write a prescription.

Zhou Jiang followed out, lowered his voice and asked, "How is Lord Guan?" There's no danger to your life, right? ”

Doctor Jin looked stunned, then shook his head and said, "Master Guan's body is a little weak, but as long as you raise it for a period of time, you can recover." ”

"Doctor Jin, don't coax me, I just saw Lord Guan coughing up blood. Doctor Jin, you tell me the truth, is this illness very serious? ”

Hearing this, Dr. Jin couldn't help but look up at him, with a hesitant face.

The chief housekeeper also came out, and when he saw Doctor Jin's embarrassed face, he said, "Doctor Jin, Lord Zhou is his own person, you don't need to hide it, you just say it." ”

Only then did Doctor Jin speak: "Master Guan's illness has worsened again, and I won't be able to survive for half a month if I continue like this." ”

The big housekeeper's face was like earth, and after a long time, he muttered to himself: "How did my wife and uncle get here in just half a month, and I knew that I wouldn't let the fourth master go back, so that there would really be a good fourth master who could send the master on the last journey." ”

Although Zhou Jiang was also very sad, Lord Guan was a rare good official, and he admired him very much: "Doctor Jin, is there a way to let your lord extend a little longer and delay it until Mrs. Guan and they arrive in Hezhou." ”

Dr. Jin nodded without thinking about it: "I have a recipe here, but it must use wild ginseng that is more than 100 years old, and it must be within two years." ”

The big housekeeper hurriedly said: "There is a wild ginseng at home that I got five years ago, and it has been more than 100 years?" ”

Doctor Jin shook his head and said, "Lord Zhou, no matter what herbs are left for a long time, the weaker the medicinal properties will be. Your wild ginseng has been released for five years, and it is not medicinal enough for Lord Guan. ”

When Zhou Jiang heard this, he immediately said: "I heard that Lord Qincha has obtained a wild ginseng ...... that is more than two hundred years old."

Before he finished speaking, the chief butler refused: "Thank you Lord Zhou, but my family would rather die than use such an unclean thing." ”

Zhou Jiang was speechless.
