If you don't go to the house, you are not a gentleman

Chapter 72: It's easy to hide the spear, but it's hard to guard against the arrow

It's not that the third prince has never been in a dungeon, but he used to play the role of standing outside the iron railings, but now, he deeply experienced the feeling of staying in an iron prison.

Wet hay, rusty iron beds, dilapidated wooden tables and chairs.

The third prince was very indifferent from being arrested to being imprisoned, but seeing such a dilapidated iron prison, he frowned deeply.

The red candle on the wooden table flickered and went out.

The third prince sat in front of the wooden table, and slowly took out a bracelet from his sleeve.That's when he caught a glimpse of the fake prince disguised as himself.

The jade bracelet exudes a warm jade light under the candle lamp, and the lower script engraved on the inside of the bracelet can be faintly seen.

The third prince carefully identified the small characters and spit them out slowly.

Slowly, a contemptuous smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.

——Fan Yu.

His young and sinister brother.

It was as if all the broken threads had been gathered into the palm line.

From the prince's illness, to his departure from Beijing, to his imprisonment, everything was calculated, every step was correct, every step was within Fan Yu's calculations, such a shrewd and thoughtful plot.

The third prince smiled and suddenly got up and threw the jade bracelet viciously on the ground!

The jade bracelet fell to the ground, broke into pieces, and rolled into a corner.

No wonder he hasn't been exposed after leaving Beijing for so long, no wonder the prince's condition is up and down, no wonder the left minister is worried today, no wonder the officials came to arrest people so coincidentally - he carefully guarded against the knife and gun in front of him, and finally stabbed himself It's all back arrows covered in poisonous powder!

In an instant, all expressions of the Third Prince became stiff.

If everything was calculated by Fan Yu, then what about An Le?

Is his appearance also one of the pawns in Fan Yu's chess game?

He suddenly didn't dare to think about it anymore, and the panic that he had never felt before burned from the bottom of his heart and burned his whole body.

"An Le—"

After re-doing it on the wooden chair, he vaguely heard the creaking sound of the iron door of the dungeon being pushed open.

The footsteps gradually became heavy, the third prince frowned and waited for the comer.

There was only one person who came, and the shadow was stretched slender by the candle lamp, making him look a little thin.Finally, the footsteps stopped in front of his cell door.

The third prince raised his eyes and saw the face of the visitor. His expression remained unchanged, as if he had expected him to come.

The face of the visitor was illuminated by the candle lamp in his hand. It was a young but full of gloom. It completely lost the pitiful and wronged appearance it once had. It was handsome and sinister.

The third prince smiled contemptuously, "Fan Yu."

Fan Yu followed with a smile, caught a glimpse of the jade bracelet in the corner in a daze, and said, "Fan Xi, did you ever think that this day would come?"

Fan Xi shrugged and said: "The matter has come to this, is there anything else to say?"

Fan Yu didn't care about the third prince's cold reception, so he put down the candle lamp and sat on the floor.

"Let's not talk about anything else, let's talk about what you went back to check."

Fan Xi sneered and said, "Put me in a dungeon, but you want to take advantage of me?"

Fan Yu smiled and remained silent.

Fan Xi ignored him even more, and the two just looked at each other in a stalemate.

After a long, long time, Fan Yu finally restrained his smile and showed his sinister eyes again.

"Now that the prince's life is in my hands, the emperor's rotten body will not last long, and you have been blamed for framing the prince, and you must be sentenced to death. The whole world is mine, don't you? You don't intend to please me, let me let you go?"

Fan Xi laughed even more contemptuously.

"What are you thinking, how can I not know? I found out when you lured Qingcheng into the palace. It's just that you don't think that your abacus is so beautiful, but it is considered a miss?"

Fan Yu's face changed slightly.

Fan Xi smiled and said, "Have you found out the whereabouts of the Fourth Prince?"

Since the fourth prince's mother and concubine were thrown into the cold palace, the fourth prince has disappeared, but for the fifth prince Fan Yu, this is simply a great thing. Without a competitor, he has less things to calculate a lot of.

However, this also means that there are more variables in this chess game.

Fan Xi said: "It doesn't hurt to tell you something."

Fan Yu raised his eyebrows.

"The person who is looking for the right minister, the former left minister for hundreds of miles, has already arrived in the capital."

Fan Yu looked at him in astonishment, and was speechless for a while.

"And the purpose of the right minister looking for him is for the things in his hands—"

"what?"

Fan Xi smiled slightly, "Naturally, it is a good thing that everyone dreams of - the right side volume of the Longevity Book."

Fan Yu's fingertips began to turn white. He expected that what the right minister was looking for must be a rare treasure, but he didn't expect it to be the Book of Longevity. It is rumored that it is a medicine book that can cultivate one's body and soul.

"The Book of Eternal Life was originally the property of the immortals on Mei Xue Ridge, but it got into the hands of the ghost doctor, but what he has in his hands is only the main book and the left side book, and the book of longevity must be complete in order to be effective."

Fan Yu figured it out, the right hand must already have the main book and the left side book, so he didn't care about the ghost doctor's life or death, but was willing to spend a lot of money to catch Shi Gui Baili.

If he gets the whole book... then his delicate chess game is nothing but a mirror image!

Fan Xi watched indifferently as Fan Yu grabbed the candle lamp and hurried out.

The candle lamp on the wooden table was more than half lit, Fan Xi moved, he rubbed the jade wrench on his thumb, it was his mother's relic, but was thrown into the river outside the capital by Concubine Fang, he thought he would never again I couldn't find it, and I didn't expect that An Le would pick it up, let alone that he would give it back to me.

Fan Xi suddenly came back to his senses, the last thing he expected was that he was still thinking about peace and happiness at such a time.

……

"My lord, are the wooden chairs in the dungeon comfortable?"

A frivolous tone sounded, three points of teasing, three points of ridicule, and four points of cynical smile.

Fan Xi raised her head in disbelief, and bumped into that bright and beautiful smile.

"My lord, have you ever heard of 'It's easy to hide a sharp gun but hard to defend against a hidden arrow'?"

"..."

"My lord, did you expect to see me here?"

He didn't expect it, he didn't even dare to think about it.

"My lord, don't you want to say something when you see me?"

Fan Xi had only one thought - fortunately, fortunately, this smile remained the same.
