Everything starts from Menghualu

Chapter 160 Fighting Cheng Jushu

Fan Ruoruo looked at the decadent brother in front of her and wanted to give some advice, but she really didn't know how to speak and could only watch worriedly.

After an unknown amount of time, Fan Xian came to his senses and said in a hoarse voice, "Ruoruo, I'm fine. You don't have to worry about me anymore. I'm going back first."

After finishing speaking, Fan Xian stood up and suddenly felt dizzy. Fortunately, Ruoruo stepped forward to support him in time, and then sent him back to the room despite his objections.

Seeing her brother sleeping, Ruoruo got up and left the room with relief. But what she didn't know was that after she left, Fan Xian opened his eyes.

Now as long as he closes his eyes, he can remember the scene before Teng Zijing's death and his wife's heartbroken expression. How could he possibly sleep?
At the same time, Zhu Ge, who did not get good news yesterday, had no choice but to go to the palace to meet the saint after discussing with Yan Ruohai to no avail.

"Huh? You mean the defense map of the three states? Is the information accurate?" Emperor Qing asked

"Back to Your Majesty, in order to show sincerity, they sent half of the arrangements. They are similar to those investigated by the spies of the Inspection Institute. Many of them are consistent." Zhu Ge bowed and said.
"If that's the case, then let it go, but you must get this picture back." Emperor Qing said
"I obey the order, but Your Majesty, this person is currently being detained in the garrison division. Uncle Pingyuan has been refusing to hand him over, so I would like to ask your Majesty to issue an order." Zhu Ge said in a somewhat embarrassed tone.

"Huh? Zhu Ge, do you have any brains? How do you ask me to issue an order for this kind of thing? He committed murder in Kyoto in broad daylight, and now you want me to order him to be released?"

"If this is the decree, then I will become a foolish king!" Emperor Qing said angrily.
"Your Majesty, please calm down. Your Majesty, please calm down. I didn't think carefully. I hope your Majesty will forgive me." When Zhuge saw that Emperor Qing was angry, he quickly knelt down and kowtowed.

"Okay, I've decided on this matter. As for how to release this person, that's a matter for your inspection agency. Okay, get out!" Emperor Qing said impatiently
After hearing this, Zhuge felt like he was being pardoned, and crawled out of the imperial study. After he left, Emperor Qing's face was full of smiles, not the same as before.

Although Zhu Ge looked calm, he was actually complaining secretly in his heart. In fact, Yan Ruohai tried to persuade him yesterday, but he didn't pay attention.

In other words, he thought it was okay for him to do this. It was all for the great cause of the Qing Dynasty. For this, he planned to take a gamble. The result was obvious that he lost the bet.

The current situation is very unfavorable to him. He could still pretend to be confused before this matter, but now that he has reported it to His Majesty, there are some things that he can no longer pretend to be confused about.

But there was no way Uncle Ping Yuan could let him go. After much deliberation, he could only choose to go to the Royal Courtyard.

Yan Que looked at Zhuge in front of him and didn't speak for a long time. Naturally, Zhuge didn't dare to say anything.

"Zhu Ge, should I say that you are brave? Or should I say that you are tired of living? Since His Majesty has not issued an order, it means that I can let you go or not." Yan Que said
"Uncle Pingyuan, it's like this. However, His Majesty already knows about it. Although there is no decree, you should know the importance, so?" Zhu Ge said.
"I know, how could I not know this? But Zhuge, let me remind you, I don't care what method you use, the defense maps of these three states must be brought back!"

"If something goes wrong, Your Majesty will spare you, but I won't!" Yan Que said directly
"Yes, I will obey my orders." Zhu Ge could only agree after hearing this.

"Okay, you can go back. You will come to pick me up in seven days. Please step back." Yan Que said
After hearing these words, Zhuge finally let go of his worries, so he quickly bowed and looked at Zhuge's leaving figure, a smile appeared on Yan Que's face.

"Xiao Wu, go to Fan's house and tell Fan Xian that I have left him seven days. If he doesn't come within seven days, then let's give up!" Yan Que said
Zhao Wu clasped his fists and then exited the study, while Yan Que returned to the backyard. After all, they were getting married soon and had a lot to do.

"What? Seven days? This is not what Yan Que said at the beginning." When Fan Xian heard this, he suddenly coughed excitedly.

"Master Fan, please don't get excited. My general has nothing to do. Zhuge, the head of the First Division of the Inspection Institute, just left the Royal Courtyard."

"He has already informed His Majesty about this matter. Although His Majesty did not issue a decree, as long as Your Majesty agrees, it means there is a decree. Mr. Fan, you should remember it."

"When my general promised you, he said that as long as Your Majesty does not participate, this person cannot be removed. But now that Your Majesty is here, there is nothing we can do about it."

"By the way, my general also said that you should go there in seven days and kill Cheng Jushu in time for the handover. As compensation for you, he will keep the people of the inspection institute under surveillance." Zhao Wudao
After hearing this, Fan Xian was not so excited. He now believed that it was not Yan Que who didn't want to help, so he said, "Okay, you go back and tell Yan Que that I will be there in seven days."

After hearing this, Zhao Wu bowed directly and then exited the room. After he left, Fan Xian began to make preparations.

That's right, with the injuries he suffered, it would be impossible for him to be completely healed in just seven days, and when he was at his peak, he might not be the opponent of Cheng Jushu.

Not to mention that he was injured now, so he had to make some preparations. At this time, he felt a sense of pleasure that he had never experienced before.

After all, the poisons he had prepared before had left some leeway. Not only in terms of efficacy but also in other aspects, he was not ruthless.

But what he has prepared now are all poisons that he had expected before and had never been prepared before, and he himself does not know the true efficacy of these poisons.

After Yan Que learned that the matter was settled, he didn't say anything and just waved his hand.

Time flew by and seven days later, Yan Que came out of the other courtyard for the first time and rushed to the garrison. When he arrived, Zhuge was already waiting for him with his people.

Yan Que didn't give him a good look and walked straight in. Then he winked at Zhao Wu. Zhao Wu nodded, then turned and left.

Not long after, Cheng Jushu was escorted out. When he saw Cheng Jushu, Zhuge couldn't hold back the excitement in his heart and bowed, "Thank you, Uncle Pingyuan, sir."

After hearing this, Yan Que didn't say anything but said to himself, "Fan Xian, I gave you the opportunity. If you can't seize it, you can't blame me!"

These words made Zhu Ge's expression change, and at this moment, in the other direction, Fan Xian, dressed in a black outfit, slowly walked over.

Fan Xian stood opposite Cheng Jushu and glared at him. Everyone present knew what he was going to do.

"Uncle Pingyuan, what do you mean? Didn't you promise to be an official?" Zhuge said hurriedly

"Yes, I did promise you, but I also promised him. Even when I promised him, I hadn't promised you yet. It's always about first come, first served, right?" Yan Que said calmly, "What? This ? Okay, I understand, come on, take Cheng Jushu back!" Zhuge said.
"Wait a minute, Lao Zhu, you are dishonest. I said, I promised to hand the person over to you, but I didn't say whether he was alive or dead."

"Today the two of them will fight to the death. After this battle, you can take Cheng Jushu away, but before that, just watch the show honestly." Yan Que said
The expression on Zhuge's face was uncertain after hearing this, but Fan Xian did not wait for them, but directly made his move, and the two sides fought back and forth for several rounds.

As a result, Cheng Jushu was not injured at all, but Fan Xian's old injury relapsed, and blood was already oozing from the corner of his mouth. Seeing this scene, Zhu Ge felt much better.

Yes, Fan Xian was so seriously injured in the last assassination on Niulan Street. How could he be healed so quickly?He could not be Cheng Jushu's opponent, and this conclusion made him feel at ease.

At this time, the confrontation between the two reached a critical moment. Fan Xian gathered all his energy and struck suddenly, but Cheng Jushu was forced to block it with his arms.

Those present could clearly hear the sound of bones cracking. Yes, Fan Xian's full blow directly broke Cheng Jushu's arms.

However, Fan Xian was not feeling well at this time. At this time, he was kneeling on the ground, his face was as pale as paper, and he obviously had no strength to fight.

Zhu Ge was completely relieved after seeing this scene, and even saluted, "Uncle Ping Yuan, do you see?"

"Okay, now that the outcome has been decided, you can take that person away," Yan Que said.
"Ah, thank you Uncle Pingyuan, thank you Uncle Pingyuan." After Zhuge said that, he led the people and walked directly in the direction of Cheng Jushu.

Zhu Ge, who came closer, looked at Fan Xian who was calming down a little and said, "Fan Tisi, why do you think you are doing this? Isn't it better to just hand the person over to the forensic institute honestly?"

Fan Xian didn't say anything after hearing this. He even sat down on the ground and started laughing. He didn't stop even when he coughed up blood.

This made Zhuge feel a little uneasy. He suddenly thought of something and immediately said loudly, "Quickly, take Cheng Jushu back, quick!"

"Hahaha, Boss Zhu, don't waste your efforts. You can't save this man. This poison was specially prepared by me. I don't even have an antidote myself."

"No one in the world can solve this problem except my master, but do you think my master will help you? Hahaha, hahaha." Fan Xian mocked
At this time, Zhu Ge was livid with anger, because while he was speaking, Cheng Jushu, who was fine just now, had fallen into a coma.

"Asshole, you are simply an asshole, come on, take him back too!" Zhuge said
"Zhu Ge, you are so majestic. Do you need me to remind you where this is?" Yan Que suddenly said at this good time.
"Uncle Ping Yuan? What do you mean by this? Are you kidding me? Uncle Ping Yuan, our inspection agency is not easy to bully. Don't bully others too much!" Zhuge said angrily

"Haha, Zhu Ge, this time I will rule you not guilty of ignorance. If you dare to do it next time, your head will not belong to you!"

"Zhu Ge, you can arrest this person, but you can't do it with me. I will send him back to Fan's house now. You can go to Uncle Si Nan's house to arrest him." After Yan Que finished speaking, he waved his hand and said

Zhuge's expression changed after hearing this, but in the end he could only endure it. Zhao Wu led a team of people and escorted Fan Xian to Fan's house.

But Zhuge could only follow behind obediently, not daring to do anything drastic. At this time, Zhuge felt very depressed. What was going on? They were the inspection agency.

When did the Inspection Institute, which oversees hundreds of officials, experience such cowardice?Ever since Yan Que returned to Beijing, his family has always given in, which is simply unreasonable!

He cursed in his heart, but he did not dare to make any move on his face. After all, even His Majesty had given in, and the imperial edict could be forced to be taken back and issued again.

Compared with these, what he encountered today seems to be nothing, right?

Regardless of Zhuge's thoughts or Fan Xian's injury, Yan Que just felt relaxed at this moment. After all, he had accomplished one more thing, and he was still very happy.

After all, after this matter is finished, he can prepare for his wedding with peace of mind. After all, according to the time calculation, he will probably get married next time.

Different from Yan Que's relaxation, Zhu Ge encountered another problem at this time, and this problem was naturally the Fan family. At this time, a row of red-armored knights stood in front of the Fan family.

It was precisely because of their presence that Zhuge Zhui could watch helplessly as the Fan family members took Fan Xian back to the Fan family, while he could only watch from the door.

Not to mention how uncomfortable this feeling was, in fact, it was not only uncomfortable for him, but also for his subordinates who had been working with him all day. After all, they were all elites of the Inspection Institute.

In their hearts, the Institute's face is higher than their lives, but today, today, it makes the Institute lose face, and it also makes them lose face.

It was so prosperous before, why did it become so miserable today? The defense division didn't dare to offend him. After all, the Yan family was a lunatic, but this Fan family, why did the Fan family?
"Uncle Si Nan, do you really want to stop our inspection institute?" Zhuge said loudly
"Zhu Ge, I don't care what your inspection agency does in other places, but it's not enough for me here. You want to take my son away from my house."

"Either you have His Majesty's imperial edict, or let Chen Pingping come and tell me in person!" Fan Jian said solemnly.
After hearing this, Zhuge's face became extremely ugly, because Fan Jian didn't pay attention to him at all, and he was saying that he was not qualified.

Although he knows this is true, after all, Fan Jian came out of hiding, but there are some things you can't say out loud, right?After all, I am also the director of the inspection institute. I don’t want to lose face, right?
"If that's the case, then don't blame me for being rude, just fight in!" Zhuge said angrily.
"Stop!" The two parties who were about to start a fight suddenly stopped what they were doing, because it was Eunuch Hou who spoke.

"The Emperor has a decree. I already know about this matter. The people from the inspection institute don't need to worry about it anymore." Eunuch Hou stepped forward and said.

"Master Zhu, please come back?" Eunuch Hou said to Zhu Ge with a smile on his face.

After Zhu Ge heard this, he felt relieved. After all, he was forced to go to a dangerous place just now and had to do something. Fortunately, he had this decree, otherwise he would have been in big trouble.

Zhu Ge felt relieved in his heart, but naturally he couldn't show it on his face, so he could only show an angry expression, and then turned around and left with the others.
