"Fang Xiaosi was as fast as the wind, blowing away the petals on the cherry tree in front of the door...

They all brought several of them with them and crashed into the house with him.

His master was standing barefoot on the ground with a dagger in his hand!

"Yes, is it that woman?"

He was outside the door just now and clearly heard the master talking to someone.

After hesitating for a long time, he rushed in!

There was a jade screen blocking the door, so he didn't have time to see clearly!

But his intuition told him that the woman appeared again...

Diwu Xun concealed the light in his eyes, held his chest and sat back on the bed, and asked, "How did he die?"

Fang Xiaosi saw that his master had changed the subject directly. Although he was a little upset, he still frowned and replied:

"The messenger is outside the door, and he said he had something to tell me in private! I felt suspicious, so I brought him here for your attention."

"Does the prince know?"

"I don't know. The prince is still in the study. Um... wait for the subordinates to go and hire the painter."

Hearing this, Diwu Xun stood up.

When Fang Xiaosi saw him getting dressed, he became worried about his injuries again!

"Master, how about I go and trouble the prince to move?"

Diwuxun shook his head, picked up the long gown on the screen beside the bed, stretched out his long arms, and put it on his body!

"It's okay. When I was on the battlefield, I was injured much more seriously than this."

Having said that, the injury this time is also very deep...

Fang Xiaosi thought about it, but in the end he couldn't get over his grandfather...

I could only help him get his coat and leave the dormitory with him.

Outside the bedroom, there was a servant in his forties, wearing Tibetan clothes, standing under the cherry tree.

After seeing Diwu Xun, he quickly bowed his head and saluted, "I greet the Fifth Shaoqing."

"You come with me."

When they arrived at the study, Xiao Xuance was leaning on the couch with a book in his hand.

When I heard footsteps, I looked up and was startled.

"Are you trying to kill yourself? Why did you get out of bed so quickly?"

Fang Xiaosi pouted and said with some dissatisfaction:

"My master and the prince have something to talk about, and I have to come to the prince myself."

When the servant behind him heard this, he knelt down and bowed, "Greetings, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince."

"Yeah?" Xiao Xuance pointed at the person kneeling on the ground and asked Diwu Xun, "Isn't he from your house?"

Diwu Xun nodded and stepped aside.

"I was sent from Doctor Fu's residence to announce the death."

"Announcement of death?" Xiao Xuance was startled and looked at the people coming down the hall, "What's going on?"

"To answer the prince, it's my master."

"Doctor Fu?" Upon hearing this, Xiao Xuance looked at Diwuxun. Could it be?

The two looked at each other knowingly.

Diwu Xuncai said, "The prince is here and will make the decision for you. If you have anything to say, feel free to say it."

The servant had long heard that the current crown prince and the newly appointed Fifth Junior Minister were close friends.

After bowing once more, he began to report.

"Today, my master took a rest, and when my wife woke up, she found that the master had passed away.

Later, several imperial physicians from the Imperial Medical Bureau, including Imperial Physician Shang and Imperial Physician Min, were invited to diagnose the master, and they all said that the master had died suddenly in a dream.

My wife is suspicious.

The master is in good health on weekdays and there is no rumor that he has any heart disease.

The Madam heard that the Fifth Shaoqing had solved more than 3,000 unjust cases in Xinyang City, and no one complained about the injustice!

He is deeply trusted by the people and is known as the Fifth Judge!

Let’s talk about my master’s affairs. No matter who she entrusts the matter to, she won’t feel at ease except for Lord Shaoqing!

That's why I was ordered to come to the Fifth Shaoqing's mansion when I went to report!

Please ask the Fifth Shaoqing to help secretly investigate the death of the master. "

Xiao Xuance touched his chin and asked Diwu Xun, "Qinghai, what do you mean?"

"Everything will be subject to the arrangements of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince."

Xiao Xuance nodded and said to the servant, "Go and tell Madam Fu that the Fifth Junior Secretary has received the order."

"Thank you, Your Highness the Crown Prince, and thank you, Fifth Junior Secretary!"

After the servant left, Xiao Xuance looked at Diwuxun.

"Where do you want to start? What do you need me to do?"

"Your Highness, don't you think that the sudden death of Doctor Fu at this time is quite strange?"

"You are suspicious. It was because I wanted to ask Doctor Fu to check for poison in you that...

It’s just that I just found out that you were poisoned, but Doctor Fu died this morning.”

"That person is never one to take just one step and then rest."

"what do you mean……"

The fifth one nodded.

“He has made two preparations.

Sent a team to ambush last night, it would be good if I died;

If I were injured, you would definitely ask the imperial physician you are most familiar with to come over.

Unfortunately, my injury was not treated as he wished. "

"If it is as you think, it seems that this person has already been in the capital."

"It's normal. He's always by my side. There's no reason why he wouldn't come when I'm here."

"Whether there is any connection, we will know when we see it." Xiao Xuance's eyebrows darkened, "Since he dared to come to the capital, if I find out who he is, I will make sure he never returns."

After listening for a while, Fang Xiaosi still felt that he had to speak out his doubts!

He glanced at the gloomy Diwu Xun, made up his mind, bowed his head and said:

“I think it must be related to the missing woman!

Only the three of us knew that she poisoned me.

If it wasn't her, how could the murderer have predicted that the prince would ask Doctor Fu to treat him?!"

Diwu Xun looked at him helplessly, then looked at Xiao Xuance, pointed at Fang Xiaosi and said:

"The brain is a good thing, but it's a pity that Xuan Ce hasn't helped you develop it over the years."

After saying that, Diwu Xun covered his chest with his hands in frustration and leaned against a chair to the side.

Xiao Xuance coughed awkwardly!

“Well, you’re right.

However, have you ever thought that what Xiao Si said is also a possibility? "

"no way."

Diwu Xun restrained himself from thinking about that face and said to Fang Xiaosi,

"Go find Lu Chuan. Tell him to take a shower, get dressed, and go out with me in the evening."

"What about my subordinates?"

"you?"

Diwu Xun turned and looked at Xiao Xuance.

Xiao Xuance nodded in understanding and shouted to the outside of the door, "Shocking Sun."

Zhan Yue's twin brother Jingri soon appeared in the study and bowed, "I am here."

Xiao Xuance pointed at Fang Xiaosi, who had a silly look on his face, and ordered Jingri:

"Send him back to the prince's mansion, lock him up in the study, and study military tactics carefully."

"Ah? Master...

Prince..."

No matter how loudly he shouted, the two men pretended not to hear him. They looked calm and composed, with their heads held high.

Until he was frightened and dragged out of the study!

Diwu Xun can be regarded as the wise counselor and military strategist of the prince's faction.

He was chosen as the prince's companion since he was a child, and studied and practiced with the prince.

When Crown Prince Xiao Xuance was eight years old, he was nearly poisoned to death by a concubine in the harem.

If it weren't for the meticulous and observant Fifth Xun's testimony.

He was afraid that he had already become a wronged soul in this harem battle.

This is also why Xiao Xuance values ​​him so much that he is even willing to disobey the emperor for him!

If you put yourself in his shoes, and if you were to say who in the world Diwu Xun trusts the most, it would undoubtedly be Xiao Xuance.

After all, in Xinyang City, in the past five years, there have been many assassinations...

If it weren't for the several secret guards sent by Xiao Xuance who risked their lives to fight for him, he would have died long ago.

So the two are not brothers, but they are more like brothers.

The relationship between them is such that no one in the world dares to address the crown prince by his name...

But in this world, there is only the fifth one, the one who can be summoned!
