After one round of dishes and three rounds of wine, Hua Fushu and Yu Chisu started playing finger-guessing games to see who would fall down first. Whoever fell down first would be the loser.
Hua Fushu can't drink much, but he has very good luck and usually wins the game of finger-guessing.
Yu Chi Su has a very good alcohol tolerance and can be said to be a heroine among wine drinkers. She drank a whole jar of Huadiao wine, but she was not drunk yet. Finally, she changed to the Du Kang wine with the highest concentration in Ruifenglou.
After changing the wine, Hua Fushu's good luck took a sharp turn for the worse, and she suffered defeat after defeat. Her face gradually turned red, her chest felt a little stuffy, and her head felt a little heavy. She knew she was about to get drunk, so she quickly admitted defeat.
She swore never to drink with Yu Chi Su again. This woman was too good a drinker. Not all men could drink as well as she did!
After the banquet, Hua Fushu sent Lu Tianyun back to the Lu family before returning to the General's Mansion.
The peaceful twilight over the Ministry of Justice's prison was broken. It turned out that the important prisoner Cai Yuanchang was kidnapped by a group of people!
This group of people were all dressed in black clothes, with silver masks covering their faces. They had extraordinary martial arts skills. They killed the guarding yamen runners and took Cai Yuanchang away.
When Yu Xuanji heard the news and brought people to the Ministry of Justice prison, his niece Yu Chi Su and her brother Yu Yidao, who was the chief of police, were chasing the man in black.
Yu Chi Su and her brother Yu Yidao are both good at swordsmanship. Her brother's martial arts skills are better than hers, and his swordsmanship skills are far better than hers, so he is called "Yidao".
Yu Yidao's swordsmanship was domineering and powerful. He wielded it smoothly, accurately and neatly. Even though the man in black was highly skilled in martial arts and his moves were deadly, he was not at a disadvantage. Instead, he beat the man in black back step by step. Soon, several of them became his victims.
However, Cai Yuanchang has not been rescued yet and is still in the hands of the man in black.
The man in black pushed Cai Yuanchang into the carriage and drove away. Yu Chi Su broke free from the siege of the man in black, climbed over the eaves and walls, and took a shortcut to chase the carriage, leaving her brother alone to fight with the man in black.
Many men in black clothes surrounded Yu Chi Su. Yu Chi Su was outnumbered and was suppressed by one of the men in black clothes. The sharp sword was about to cut her neck!
In an instant, several scimitars flew towards him. The man in black clothes dodged them quickly, but Yu Chisu took advantage of the situation and swung his sword to counterattack, turning the passive position into the active one. The man in black clothes was too busy to cope with it. He dodged the scimitars and was met with Yu Chisu's attack again.
The owner of the scimitar was none other than Ye Jia Erlang, who came here after receiving the news.
Ye Zelin joined the battle with a long sword in hand. Fortunately, he arrived in time and Yu Chi Su did not become the dead soul under the sword of the man in black.
As the personal follower of Ye Jia Erlang, Side goes wherever the young master goes. He has no sword or spear in his hand, only a long stick.
The man in black saw that his limbs were thin and weak, and he must be a man who had no martial arts skills. However, adhering to the principle of killing anyone who came without mercy, Si De became the target of the man in black.
Si De was quick-eyed and quick-handed. He swung his long stick with force. The man in black had no time to dodge and was hit by the stick. He felt dizzy. Si De then hit him with the stick again and knocked the man in black unconscious.
Yu Chi Su and Ye Ze Lin were considered top masters. In the battle, they were neither at an upper hand nor at a disadvantage, and they were unable to extricate themselves for a long time.
It was not until Yu Yidao and the yamen runners arrived that Ye Zelin had the chance to free himself. He took a look and then went after Cai Yuanchang.
Not long after, Yu Chi Su also went to chase and rescue the man in black who had taken Cai Yuanchang away.
Ye Zelin searched for a long time but still couldn't find anyone. He only found an overturned carriage and a man in black clothes lying on the ground.
After checking the black-clothed man's breath, he was sure that he was dead. After looking at the black-clothed man's wound, he felt it was a little strange. It didn't seem to be caused by the black-clothed man's weapon.
Is there anyone else?
Ye Zelin looked around. It was silent and there was no one else except him.
He didn't find Cai Yuanchang, so he searched nearby. When he reached an alley, he heard some voices, "Tell me, where is Bai Yanlang? Who is the man behind you?"
The voice was a little cold and a little urgent.
Ye Zelin was puzzled. Who was Bai Yanlang? Who was this person?
He leaned over to take a look, but because of the twilight, he could only vaguely see a shadow.
The shadow grabbed Cai Yuanchang's clothes and said, "Cai, stop playing dead! Answer me!"
Ye Zelin leaned out to take another look. Is this person a woman?
The shadow seemed to sense some movement, looked back, but saw nothing, then climbed over the wall and left.
Ye Zelin saw people leave, lit the tinder, and then stepped forward.
There was a man lying at the foot of the wall. It was Cai Yuanchang. Cai Yuanchang was covered in blood and had multiple injuries. He checked his breath and pulse and found that Cai Yuanchang was dead.
After checking the wounds on Cai Yuanchang's body, it was found that they were caused by the weapon held by the man in black clothes. If he wanted to save Cai Yuanchang, why did he want to kill him?
Ye Zelin glanced at Cai Yuanchang's chest and felt something strange. He turned his hand and found a letter written in blood. When he saw the contents of the letter, he was shocked. He stared at the letter and his face slowly turned pale.
"Second Brother Ye." Yu Chi Su shouted.
Ye Zelin came to his senses and hurriedly hid the blood letter in his arms.
As he walked out of the alley, he said, "It's too late. Cai Yuanchang is dead."
Yu Chisu asked, "Dead?"
Ye Zelin said: "If those men in black are not here to save Cai Yuanchang but to kill him, there must be others besides them."
At least there is still a group of people, like the woman just now?
Yu Chisu continued, "If you came to kill Cai Yuanchang, why did you save him? Isn't that a contradiction?"
Ye Zelin said: "The key is unclear. Those men in black should be dead soldiers. It's a pity that there are no survivors."
Since they are dead, even if they are left alive, I am afraid they will not be able to say anything.
The bailiffs took the body of the man in black and Cai Yuanchang back to the Ministry of Justice. Ye Zelin followed the Yu Chisu siblings to see Yu Xuanji and said a few words to her.
Yu Xuanji said, "There was a survivor, but he committed suicide by taking poison. Young man Ye, don't worry about this matter. I will handle it myself. You can go back."
Ye Zelin said goodbye and left with Si De.
On the way back, Side said, "Sir, you've completely exposed your identity this time."
Ye Zelin smiled, "It's been exposed a long time ago. Do you think that old fox asked Cai Yuanchang to kill Lord Yu just to stop Lord Yu from investigating the Yuezhou case? No, he not only wanted to use Cai Yuanchang's knife to kill Lord Yu, but also to get rid of me. He didn't get rid of me in Yuezhou, and he will definitely not let me go next time. Your Majesty deliberately ordered me to help, just to tell that man that Your Majesty knows everything he has done. It's like Your Majesty has officially declared war on him."
Side drove the carriage and soon arrived at Lefeng Tower. There were many people coming and going. "Then Mr. Zhao must have made some moves."
Ye Zelin said: "Yes, the incident with Cai Yuanchang gave Mr. Zhao an opportunity."
Side parked the carriage outside, and the two of them went into Lefeng Building. They came out after a long time, packing a lot of food and keeping it warm in food boxes.
