Qian Kang pondered and said: "Yes, the mountain leader has a chivalrous spirit, hates evil as much as hatred, refuses to compromise, and has a very tough character. If he knew how to compromise tactfully, he would not have failed in his life. I agree.

Brother Zian’s words.”

Zhao Changlin clapped his thighs and sighed: "Hey, I am deeply ashamed to see the mountain commander like this. We also hate the old thieves, but we dare not take action. But the mountain commander took action resolutely. We can't hope for this strong and decisive action."

Xiang Bei. That day we learned that the old thief was assassinated. Brother Qian and I admired the assassin very much. It was a pity that the old thief escaped before his anger was exhausted. But we didn’t expect that the righteous man was beside us, and he turned out to be the mountain chief. It was very surprising.

I admire you, but it also makes me extremely ashamed.”

Qian Kang sighed and nodded: "Yes, I am very ashamed."

Fang Zian waved his hands and said: "Now is not the time to talk about this. I can't sit idly by when my husband is in trouble. My husband has been so kind to me and loves me so much. I can't watch my husband in jail and ignore me."

Zhao Changlin said: "What are you going to do, brother Zian? The mountain chief's matter is not a trivial matter. Brother Zian, you must think of a way and don't act rashly."

Fang Zian said: "I understand that we are nothing now and have no ability to save Mr.. I thought about it for a long time last night. I can ask someone to ask about the situation, find out the inside story, and then think of a way to rescue him."

Qian Kangdao: "Yes, let's also go and inquire to see what the situation is like, what is the emperor's attitude, and what the old thief wants to do to the mountain chief and the others. Let's go separately and inquire, and inform each other of any news, step by step.

, try your best to rescue the mountain chief. Although it is difficult, it is better than doing nothing."

The three of them reached a consensus. Qian Kang and Zhao Changlin said goodbye and left. Fang Zian quickly washed up and took care of himself before going out. He had thought about it last night. According to his current connections, it would be difficult to find out the news.

I have to turn to Qin Xiqing for help, because apart from her, I don’t seem to have anyone else I can turn to. Although Qin Xiqing is a member of the flower world, she has a wide range of contacts and should be able to help. Although I don’t want to ask Qin Xiqing, but at the moment

In this situation, it seems that I can only go to her for help.

…

In the small building in the back garden of Wanchun Garden, Qin Xiqing quietly listened to Fang Zian's words. She pondered for a long time without speaking.

Seeing this situation, Fang Zian cupped his hands and said, "Miss Qin, I don't know anyone who is capable in Lin'an City, so I thought of you. I know this request is a bit abrupt, and no one is willing to go here at this time."

Wading in troubled waters. Miss Qin need not be embarrassed by this, I was too reckless."

Qin Xiqing shook his head gently and said: "Where did Mr. Fang go? Xiqing was just thinking about who to ask for information. If Mr. Fang can think of asking Xiqing for help at this time, he treats Xiqing as a friend.

Xiqing is very happy. To be honest, Xiqing told you the news yesterday. In fact, he didn’t want you to be troubled and troubled by it, and he didn’t want you to get involved in it. But the situation is different now.

The analysis is very reasonable. The reason why Master Zhou Shanchang expelled you from the door wall before is not valid. It is very likely that as the young master said, the respected master found a reason to expel you from the door wall in order not to implicate you. It can be seen that Master Zhou Shanchang found a reason to expel you from the door wall.

The other young master is not heartless, but he is very protective. Both of you, master and disciple, are affectionate and righteous people, and Xiqing respects such people the most. If you want to save Zhou Shanchang, Xiqing will of course help."

Fang Zian said happily: "Is the girl willing to help? That would be great. If I can rescue my husband, I would be very grateful. I will repay the girl for helping me one day."

Qin Xiqing smiled and said: "Young master, it is better not to say these words. A man should not make promises lightly. Besides, Xiqing is not sure that he can rescue Zhou Shanchang. You must understand what a serious crime it is to plot to assassinate the prime minister of the dynasty, let alone someone like Qin Hui.

As far as Xi Qing knows, Qin Hui is a man who is determined to retaliate, is jealous of talents, and is extremely domineering. Even if officials in the DPRK do not offend him, they may be persecuted by him. What's more, Chief Zhou Shan is the one who conspired to assassinate him. Qin Hui will definitely kill him.

Putting people to death to demonstrate their authority and frighten others."

Fang Zian nodded slowly and said: "I understand, I know this is difficult, but I can't just watch it."

Qin Xiqing thought for a while and said: "In this case, Xiqing will find a way to ask about the specific situation first, and then make a decision. There is still time. After all, even if Qin Hui wants to kill someone, he cannot kill him immediately. After the interrogation in Dali Temple, it will be reported to the Political Affairs Hall

, the Zhengshitang still has to report to the emperor, and the execution can only be executed after the emperor approves. Even if all the procedures are completed, the execution will have to wait until the autumn. So there is still time to think of a solution. Don't be too anxious, sir."

Fang Zian nodded and said: "I think so too, at least I need to know the specific inside story. According to what the girl said, it seems that this matter is not completely decided by Qin Hui, the emperor's attitude is the most fundamental attitude. I, the Song Dynasty, will not kill anyone

According to the ancestral precepts of the scholar-bureaucrats, isn’t there still hope for a change?”

Qin Xiqing looked at Fang Zian and said softly: "Young Master Fang is too naive. Taizu did set an ancestral precept not to kill scholar-bureaucrats and those who spoke out. It is said that this ancestral precept is still engraved on the oath stele and erected in the Ancestral Temple. However,

At this time and that time, is the Song Dynasty today still the Song Dynasty back then? Bianliang and Liang are all in the hands of the Jin people, and the Bianliang Ancestral Temple has been burned down long ago. I am afraid that the stone tablet will no longer exist in the world. Besides, even if

So what if the stone tablet still exists? Didn’t you see that Marshal Yue was killed for an unfounded crime? How can the emperor make Qin Hui unhappy if he wants to appease Qin Hui?"

Fang Zian was silent for a moment, then nodded and said, "What Miss Qin said is true. Miss Qin is very knowledgeable, and I am ashamed of myself. I have to ask Miss Qin to help me with this matter. If necessary, I will always be at your disposal."

Qin Xiqing smiled and said: "You should do your best, but if things don't work out, please don't blame me."

Fang Zian said hurriedly: "How dare you blame me? It's already a great favor that the girl is willing to help. Zian is already grateful. However, I will wait for news about the girl."

Qin Xiqing smiled and nodded, and after sending the worried Fang Zian away, she went back upstairs and walked around in deep thought for a while, then summoned her maid Ling'er to give her instructions.

"Ling'er, please make arrangements. I'm going to see the prince."

Ling'er agreed, but did not leave. Instead, she said softly: "Young lady, please think twice. Do you really want to report this matter to the prince? Will the prince blame the girl for being nosy? Besides, the prince may not be able to do anything.

The prince has said that when dealing with Qin Hui, one should 'avoid his sharp edges and be conceited', so asking the prince to intervene would not be contrary to the prince's words. I'm afraid the prince will not agree."

Qin Xiqing said: "Ling'er, I understand what you mean, but I have to give it a try. Even if the prince blames me, I will admit it."

Ling'er said: "Don't blame me for talking too much. Is the girl doing this for Fang Zian? Is he worthy of you doing this? The girl seems a little irritated. Is Fang Zian really that important?"

Qin Xiqing said in a deep voice: "I don't know. Anyway, if he comes to beg me, I will help him. Whether he is important or not, and whether he is worth it or not, it doesn't matter. He can think of coming to beg me when he is in a hurry.

, I will do my best. Ling'er, you don't have to say anything, just go and make arrangements."

Ling'er sighed and said nothing more, turned around to make arrangements, but thought in her heart: What good does Fang Zian do? He just knows how to write a few poems. The girl's eyes lit up when she saw him, it was really hard to find

I understand. There are so many young men from rich families who are very attentive to the girl, and I don't see the girl showing any pretense, but she is so kind to Fang Zian. I don't know what the girl thinks.

…

Fang Zian spent two days in anxiety. Although he also tried to find out the information himself, he found very little. Apart from knowing that Zhou Jun was being held in Dali Temple Prison, there was basically no other useful information.

Qian Kang and Zhao Changlin also made little progress. They also tried some methods to find out some situations, but with little success. In fact, this case has become a taboo case, and no one is willing to go to this mess.

Water, because if you are not careful, you will get into trouble. Qin Hui hopes that someone will jump out at this time and take the opportunity to catch them all. Who dares not to be afraid of this?

The next night, when Fang Zian was meditating under the candlelight in front of the window, there was a strange noise in the yard, as if someone had climbed over the courtyard wall. Fang Zian pulled out a blunt sword in his hand, got up to check, and opened

When I opened the door, I saw a dark figure walking down the corridor.

"Who?" Fang Zian shouted in a low voice.

"Mr. Fang, I don't mean any harm, I just came to express my gratitude to you." The man spoke in a low voice, his voice was soft, and he was obviously a woman.

Fang Zian was stunned for a moment, and then a flash occurred in his mind, and he said in shock: "You are... you are the one that night..."

"Sir, it's inconvenient to talk in the corridor. Can you go in and talk?" the woman interrupted in a deep voice.

Fang Zian hurriedly stepped aside, and the woman's figure flashed into the house. Fang Zian came to the corridor and stood quietly to listen carefully. After making sure that no one was disturbed and no one was watching, Fang Zian went back to the house and closed the door.

house door.

Entering the room, the woman was already sitting under the lamp, dressed in black, with a long sword hanging from her waist, and her face covered with a black cloth. Her exposed hands, feet, and cheeks were all white against the black clothes and black mask, making black and white distinct.

Seeing Fang Zian enter the room, the woman stood up and bowed her hands and said, "Thank you so much for Mr. Fang's help that day. I am very grateful. I am here today to express my gratitude to Mr. Fang."

Fang Zian hurriedly returned the greeting and said, "No need to thank me. I should help you if you have a right to do it, and I should help you if you have a duty. The girl assassinated the traitor Qin Hui. It was an act of a righteous man, so I should help you."

The woman nodded and said: "Young master is really brave. Don't you know that this incident will break your body to pieces? Once the officers and soldiers find out, it will be hard for the master to escape his involvement."

Fang Zian smiled and said: "So what? I'm not afraid. Besides, how would the officers and soldiers know about it? Did the girl take the initiative to report me?"

The woman smiled and slowly sat down again, without even waiting for Fang Zian to give up her seat.

Fang Zian sat down on another low stool and looked at the woman quietly. The woman said solemnly: "Master Fang is very good at martial arts. What kind of weird kung fu did he use in the fight with me that night? I was the first
