After being a widow for half my life, I found out that my husband was not dead.

Xiao Meng immediately stood up and saw Xue Changfeng was still eating, so he picked him up.

"We have to save people!"

Xue Changfeng hurriedly stuffed a piece of meat into his mouth, "If we were too willing to save the subordinate, we would offend the fourth prince, and he is in the limelight now. Wanting to retaliate against us is like stepping on ants."

"This is a human life!"

"Your brother, my life is also my life!" Xue Changfeng sighed and thought of something again. His eyes lit up. He turned to look at Yan Mu and saw him holding a wine glass. He was the one who said that Fang Taining was in danger, and he was the one who remained indifferent. , "If King Zhenbei comes with him, then the fourth prince will only hate him. Anyway, he and the fourth prince are incompatible, so there is no difference."

Yan Mu snorted, "It's a pity that I don't have such good intentions."

Xiao Meng winked at Xue Changfeng, and Xue Changfeng immediately understood. The two of them walked up to Yan Mu, one on the left and the other on the right. They bent down to hold his arms and lifted him up.

"Your Highness, saving one life is better than building a seven-level pagoda!"

"We are parents and officials, and we should treat the people like our children!"

Yan Mu wanted to break free, but the two men held him too tightly. He sighed helplessly, "I'm really not afraid of offending the fourth child, but when this matter reaches the ears of the emperor, a partial father is unreasonable, so my The end will only be worse."

The two of them thought the same thing. How much the emperor disliked his son was known to the ministers and even the common people. Thinking of this, the two of them let go of Yan Mu.

"Then let's go!" Xiao Meng said.

Xue Changfeng hesitated for a moment, then nodded heavily, "I have no official position, so I'm not afraid of him. Lao Xiao, please don't go. I finally got promoted, and then I'll demote him back."

"No, I, Lao Xiao, am not unloyal."

"Old Xiao, listen to my advice!"

"Brother, it has to be you, but I can't let you take the risk. I'll go alone."

The two pushed back and forth, and Yan Mu finally understood why they were good friends.

"If you linger any longer, the body will be cold."

Xue Changfeng snorted, "If you don't help, don't make sarcastic remarks."

Xiao Meng pouted, "That's right."

"Who said I won't help?" Yan Mu said helplessly.

Their eyes lit up, and they immediately pulled Yan Mu away.

Yan Mu shook them off and said, "Put on your night clothes and veil. Just don't reveal your identity."

"Hey, that's right!"

"We didn't expect it."

The corner of Yan Mu's mouth twitched, "Since you want to save people, then hurry up."

After changing into black clothes, the three of them rushed to where Fang Taining lived. It was getting late and there was no one on the street, which made it easier for them to move.

"But will the fourth prince really send someone to kill Fang Taining?" Xue Changfeng asked in a low voice while walking forward.

Yan Mu hugged his shoulders and said: "If I were the fourth child, I would kill Fang Taining immediately after receiving the merit. If not, I would definitely send someone to monitor him. If Xiao Meng catches him and asks him about it, Knowing that the matter has been exposed, someone with ulterior motives will surely take advantage of him, and he will definitely deal with Fang Taining as soon as possible."

Xue Changfeng thought for a while and said: "The fourth prince is not you. He is obviously a little... not very smart."

"He has experts around him."

When I arrived outside the house Fang Taining rented, it was quiet inside. I climbed up the wall and saw Fang Taining going out to use the toilet. He hurried out, and after finishing, he hurried back to the house. The oil lamp was lit in the house, and the shadow of him turning the pages of the book was reflected in the window.

"This Fang Taining has also been studying hard for a long time in Hanchuang. He ranked among the best in the provincial examination. I don't know what benefits the fourth prince gave him, but he actually collaborated with him." Xiao Meng whispered.

Xue Changfeng sighed, "It may not necessarily be a benefit. Maybe he is afraid of threats. After all, he is the fourth prince."

"Shh, someone is coming." Yan Mu reminded in a low voice.

The three of them quickly shut their mouths and hid in a dark place. Sure enough, after a while, two men in black jumped into the courtyard. Seeing that the lights were still on in the west room, they looked at each other and showed the knives in their hands. .

When they pushed the door open, Xiao Meng rushed down first, followed closely by Xue Changfeng, and the two of them fought with the two killers.

Hearing the noise, Fang Taining hurriedly went out to take a look. When he saw the situation in the hospital, he was so frightened that his legs became weak.

At this moment, a sharp arrow came through the air. Yan Mu had been prepared for it and landed neatly in front of Fang Taining. When the arrow was about to hit his vital part, he chopped it off with a knife.

Two more arrows came, and Yan Mu blocked them one by one. Looking at Fang Taining again, he had collapsed to the ground.

Yan Mu picked him up and threw him behind the door, while putting a knife to his neck.

"You... who are you... why did you kill me..." Fang Taining was so frightened that he was trembling as he spoke.

Yan Mu said in a deep voice: "Those outside are here to kill you, but we are here to save you."

"Save me... then you still..." Fang Taining lowered his eyes and glanced at the knife on his neck, and subconsciously shrank back, but the blade immediately caught up with him and cut his skin.

"We can save you, or we can kill you."

"Hero...help me!"

"Where is Liu Chang's body?"

"I do not……"

"You only have one chance. If you don't want to die, then think about it carefully."

Fang Taining swallowed a sip of saliva and then said: "Graves on the outskirts of the city."

"How to find it?"

"They threw his body there randomly... I dug a hole and buried it... under a big locust tree... in a new bag of earth."

Yan Mu knew that Fang Taining was also being coerced, so he patted his shoulder with the back of his knife, "Stop taking the exam, that person won't let you pass the exam. If you want to survive, hurry out of the city and go back to your hometown early tomorrow morning."

"But in order to go to Beijing to take the exam, I sold my house and land. I am in dire straits. I have to take the exam. I can't fail the exam!" Fang Taining said anxiously.

"That's all, you can think about it yourself."

Yan Mu locked Fang Taining in the room. At this time, several more killers climbed over the wall and came in. It seemed that Qin Shengrui had made adequate preparations. Yan Mu joined Xue Changfeng and the others. The three of them were all good at martial arts. Although the other party had more people, they were gradually at a disadvantage.

After beating the other party away, Yan Mu and the other three went to Luanfeng Gang, dug out Liu Chang's body, and placed it in front of the ruins of Jiangnan Mansion at night.

"The person is already dead, so what's the use of this." Xue Changfeng sighed.

"The imperial court will send the corpses of those who were crushed to death back to their hometowns, and will also provide pensions. Liu Chang will not disappear inexplicably, and his family will not know whether he is alive or dead, and they will have to spend a lot of effort to find them." Yan Mu said.

Xiao Meng nodded, "His Royal Highness Seventh is right, things should be like this. What we can do is to bring this matter back to the right track."

At dawn the next day, someone discovered Liu Chang's body and immediately reported it to the official. The Fourth Prince reacted extremely quickly, saying that they dug it out, and that there were actually 11 people, not ten, trapped under the Jiangnan Mansion. They would verify the identity of the deceased as soon as possible and deal with it properly.

It was already late at night when the three people here finished handling this matter.

Yan Mu returned to his house. His courtyard was dark and quiet. He felt a little lonely, but when he returned to the house, through the moonlight, he saw Liu Yunxiang lying on the Arhat bed near the window.

She fell asleep while waiting for him.

Yan Mu looked at Liu Yunxiang's sleeping face under the moonlight. As Mrs. Xiao said, she was so beautiful that he was so moved when he first saw her after losing his memory.

He dispersed the cold air from his body, then stepped forward, bent down and wanted to carry her to the bed. As soon as she reached out her hand, she woke up.

"Well, you're back?"

"Ah."

Liu Yunxiang rubbed his eyes. When he saw his posture, he immediately understood what he was going to do. But looking at his face again, he only felt embarrassed. She was silent for a moment, then put her arms around his neck and leaned against him.

He understood, picked her up and carried her to the bed.
