In September of the 25th year of Hongwu, Cui Miao was ordered to investigate the murder of blacksmith Song Dali. Just after reporting the progress of King Yan's case, Qiu Ran came to the door. The two went to the blacksmith shop to check again, but they were assassinated by a masked man.

Qiu Ran was nervous about Cui Miao's injury and insisted on taking Cui Miao to see a doctor.Seeing the entanglement between the two, Shen Qing's eyes flickered, without saying a word, he turned around and left, as if he was about to walk out of the yard.

Cui Miao, who had been paying attention to him all the time, was stunned. Due to the presence of everyone and the fact that the scene had not been dealt with, he couldn't let it go, so he sighed, looked at Xue Lu, and asked, "Brother Xue, how is the palace?" , did something happen to Cuizhu?"

Xue Lu shook his head and said, "My lord ordered me to come and rescue you immediately, no matter what you do to ensure your safety, I don't know about the rest."

Cui Miao pondered for a while, then said: "Since the other party knows our actions well, then they should know it. Please trouble Brother Xue to mobilize another team of soldiers and horses to surround this place. No one is allowed to act without the order of the prince. enter."

Xue Lu nodded and said: "Don't worry, the prince has ordered me to obey your orders. Just leave it to me here. You go to see the wound and re-bandage it, so as not to lose the big."

"Brother Xue, don't worry, I will take someone back to the palace, and let Dr. Wang take a look at it for me."

Cui Miao looked at Qiu Ran and warned: "Zhihua, the other party is in the dark, but we are in the light. If they want to harm us, it's easy. You should try to go out as little as possible in the near future. If you have to go out, you must bring enough people."

Qiu Ran said worriedly: "Ah Miao, what they want is you, not me. What they really should pay attention to is you! Now that you are injured again, it is even more worrying."

"With my skill and here in Beiping City, they have to weigh it if they want to harm me." Cui Miao changed his voice and said, "Okay, I have to go back to the palace to report to the prince, so please trouble Brother Xue. Send two people to send Zhihua back to the residence."

Xue Lu sent people to escort Qiu Ran back to the mansion. Cui Miao took the unconscious masked man out of the blacksmith shop. He thought for a while, looked at the guards beside him, and said, "Take my tooth card and go Find Sun Hai and Sun Baihu, and ask him to bring a few people to my house to protect Wang Hua's safety."

The guard responded and rode away, while Cui Miao went straight back to the palace.Regardless of the injury, Cui Miao took people to see King Yan directly.

Cui Miao saluted and said, "Please refer to the prince under the bid."

Seeing Cui Miao covered in blood, King Yan's eyes flickered coldly, and he asked with concern, "Excuse me, how is the injury?"

"Going back to the lord, it's just a little skin trauma, it's just that it's too urgent to change clothes, and the bloody smell on my body hit the lord, please forgive me."

"No problem. Your loyalty is known to me, so how can I blame you?"

"Thank you, lord." Cui Miao paused for a moment, and then said: "Dare to ask lord, where is the green bamboo..."

"Thanks to your timely delivery of the letter, although I suffered some injuries, it is not serious."

"My lord, there are some people who doubt us under the standard. If not, it is impossible to know the whereabouts of the people under the standard."

King Yan was silent for a while, and said: "When the secret room was discovered, only you, Zhan Lin, and Qiu Ran were present, and only you knew how to break the mechanism. The king has no doubts about the loyalty of you and Zhan Lin, but this Qiu Ran Well, the matter has come to this point, I have to make this king suspicious."

Cui Miao was silent, King Yan was right, he also had doubts about Qiu Ran for a while, but he didn't believe that a person with such clear eyes would have such scheming.

"My lord, Biaoxia thinks that no matter whether Qiu Ran is a secret agent or not, we should not act rashly. If he is, then he will live under our surveillance. He is in the light while we are in the dark. The situation is completely reversed and it is easier to control. If he No, under the bid, try to recruit a talent for the prince, so why not do it?"

"Cui Miao, you seem to be very attached to Qiu Ran, why?"

"My lord is at the time of employing people, and I don't want my lord to miss out on talents."

King Yan was noncommittal, silent for a while, and then asked: "Do you know why they suddenly attacked?"

"Returning to the lord, just as Biao Xia guessed before, Cuizhu's method of controlling soldiers is false, they thought that Biaoxia took the real method of controlling troops from the secret room, so they wanted to capture Biao Xia."

King Yan looked at Cui Miao in a puzzled manner, and said, "Then you found something special in the secret room?"

"Apart from those memorial tablets, there is only one Song family tree in the secret room."

King Yan took the Song family tree in his hand, opened it again and looked through it, but still found nothing.If it wasn't for the presence of the three people at that time, King Yan would have become suspicious of Cui Miao.

"My lord, the mark has captured a person alive, and he has now been taken to the dungeon of the palace. This person was seriously injured, and he already has the will to die. The mark has made his own decisions, and he has been healed. Please don't blame me, my lord."

"You did a good job. Since you were captured alive, you can't let him die so easily."

"My lord, this matter is getting bigger and bigger. I'm afraid I can't hide it. I boldly suggest that this matter should be discussed in the long run."

King Yan looked at Cui Miao noncommittally, was silent for a while, and said, "Go down and heal your wounds, let Dr. Wang take a look at it for you, you need to continue investigating this case."

Cui Miao saluted respectfully and said, "Thank you, my lord, for your concern, I bid you leave!"

Watching Cui Miao bow and exit the study, King Yan said lightly, "Monk, come out."

Dao Yan turned around from behind the screen, clasped his hands together, and said: "Amitabha. The prince is too worried. The poor monk once said that this son will be the minister of the Ming Dynasty, and it can be said that he is the minister of the prince's thigh. Absolutely no lie!"

Yan Wang's eyes flashed, and he shouted sharply: "Monk, don't talk nonsense, you are so rebellious, do you really think that this king will not punish you?"

Dao Yan was not afraid at all, clasped his hands together, and said with a solemn expression: "The poor monk never lies or speaks lies. This is a destiny, and it is a destiny that cannot be violated."

King Yan looked at Dao Yan silently, and after a while he suddenly smiled and said, "You monk, you are so eloquent, how can I trust you? What do you think of Cui Miao's words?"

Dao Yan replied: "My lord, the poor monk thinks what this son said is very true. The matter has come to such a point. It is the worst policy to hide it. Although this method of controlling troops is good, if the emperor has a grudge, it will not be worth the loss. My lord." Why don't you write a letter immediately and report the case to the emperor, even if you can't get the method to control the army, at least you can leave a good impression on the emperor. What's more, the poor monk thinks that, as Cui Miao said, the case may be different from Yiwen's The death of the crown prince is involved, and the death of the crown prince is a thorn in the emperor's heart, no matter who touches it, it will end badly."

King Yan pondered for a while, then said with a smile: "Monk, if you hadn't had nothing to do with Cui Miao, and you have devoted yourself to him, this king would have thought he was your illegitimate son."

Dao Yan said without hesitation: "Amitabha. This son is kind by nature, intelligent and quick-witted, he knows right from wrong, and knows how to choose and reject. If it wasn't for Cui Miao's refusal, the poor monk really wanted to take him in as his adoptive son."

King Yan laughed and said: "You monk, you will always take advantage of others, but you should avoid the matter of accepting him as a foster son. If you mess up your seniority, this king will want your head!"

Dao Yan clasped his hands together and said, "Amitabha, the two of them are lucky to meet the prince!"

When Cui Miao left King Yan's study, she saw Wang Zhizhong waiting beside him with a medicine box.Seeing him coming out, Sanbao hurriedly greeted him, and said with concern: "Cui Qianhu, is your injury serious?"

Cui Miao replied with a smile: "It's okay, it's just a few flesh wounds, Sanbao don't need to worry."

Seeing Wang Zhizhong looking over, Cui Miao reluctantly stepped forward, bowed and said, "Doctor Wang, how are you?"

If there is anyone Cui Miao is most afraid of, it is Wang Zhizhong, and he will drink some medicinal soup every now and then.Seeing him, Cui Miao felt terrified in her heart, feeling the smell of traditional Chinese medicine coming out of her mouth.

Wang Zhizhong looked at Cui Miao and sighed, and said: "Every day, no one has suffered more injuries than you. Even a body made of iron can't stand it."

Cui Miao said shyly, "It's just a minor injury, and it will be healed within a few days after some medicine."

"Small injury? I don't know what's going on with your body? It's just about to recuperate, but it happens again, and if you waste it like this, one day you will die young."

Cui Miao said dumbfoundedly: "Doctor Wang, you are exaggerating a bit. I just hurt my hand. It shouldn't be so serious that I would die early."

"Come on, I'm too lazy to tell you, it's like playing the piano with a cow, come with me."

Just like Cui Miao didn't want to see Wang Zhizhong, Wang Zhizhong also disliked Cui Miao, not because he really disliked him, but because he felt sorry for his body. He was injured and worn out again and again, no matter how strong his body was, it would always be exhausted, let alone that Escaping from death has left him with the root cause of his disease. Once the old disease is triggered, the consequences will be unimaginable. The last time he went to the expedition, it was because of the recurrence of the old disease that caused the high fever to persist.Wang Zhizhong asked over and over again, but Cui Miao never took his words to heart, which made him both distressed and helpless.

Wang Zhizhong led Cui Miao forward, without looking at the direction, Cui Miao also knew that he was going to the Green Bamboo Garden, he stopped and said: "Doctor Wang, I almost forgot, the lord has something to do, I have to do it quickly. Don’t bother Dr. Wang if you’re injured.”

Cui Miao didn't know what was going on with Shen Qing, no matter how he coaxed Shen Qing, she didn't say a word, he didn't like this feeling, he was afraid that he couldn't help his temper and would quarrel with Shen Qing, so he might as well let both of them calm down.Besides, he was really worried about Wang Hua, and it was better to go home as soon as possible.

"Hey, hey, you bastard, come back to me quickly!"

Wang Zhizhong looked at the back of Cui Miao leaving in a hurry, feeling puzzled in his heart, turned his head to look in the direction of the Green Bamboo Garden, sighed helplessly, and went to the Green Bamboo Garden with the medicine box.

Cui Miao hurried home, seeing that everything was as usual at home, Ma Qiang and the others were all there, she couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.Several people were startled when they saw him entering the door covered in blood, and hurriedly asked for a doctor to boil hot water.It wasn't until the doctor said that his injury was not serious that everyone felt relieved.
