Compared with the white clothes that night, Ye Xiu's clothes at this time are even more amazing. The black coat makes his complexion fairer. There may be two big dark circles hanging on his face because he stayed up too late, but he unexpectedly brought A little decadent aesthetic.

"Try it. This mung bean cake is made by Mucheng. It tastes good and not too sweet." Ye Xiu picked up a piece of mung bean cake and brought it to Fang Rui's mouth.

Fang Rui's attention shifted to Ye Xiu's hand. It was a very beautiful hand with slender, white fingers and a well-defined backbone.Looking at the pastry close at hand, Fang Rui unconsciously opened his mouth and bit the pastry.

"Cough..." When he came back to his senses, Fang Rui choked, coughed dryly, chewed and swallowed, without even tasting the pastry.

It's crazy. How could he be distracted by Ye Xiu's hands? Fang Rui obviously felt the temperature on his face rising uncontrollably, and looked away, writing lightly, "It's okay."

A smile flashed across Ye Xiu's eyes, and he picked up another piece of candied fruit, "Try this again?"

"No need, why don't you eat it yourself?" All the snacks that Ye Xiu sent these days ended up in his stomach, and this time Fang Rui ate a piece abnormally, and it was Ye Xiu who fed it. of!

Fang Rui felt that his mind was getting more and more chaotic, and he was too lazy to go around with Ye Xiu, "Master Ye, if you have anything to say, just say it, you have so many things to do, there is no need to come and give me warmth every day."

Being punctured, Ye Xiu didn't feel embarrassed, and threw the candied fruit in his hand into his mouth, making a slight chirping sound while chewing.

Uh... a little cute?

"The corrupt officials you mentioned earlier, you should have evidence to prove it?" Ye Xiu sat down on the end of his bed, the old god said.

Fang Rui never thought that he would get involved in this matter, Yuanyuan's eyes widened slightly.

"Don't be so surprised. I believe what you said is true. Recently, I am also investigating the evidence of corruption and bribery of those people, but I haven't gained anything yet."

Fang Rui lay down on the bed, crossed his legs, propped his head with one hand, and resumed his usual playful smile, and said, "Haha, Master Ye is really good at joking, and you can't even find any evidence, so how can I know?"

"..." Ye Xiu didn't say anything, just looked at him with a meaningful look, and of course he didn't forget to stuff the pastry into his mouth.

Fang Rui's scalp was numb when he looked at him, and he felt like he was being seen through. This feeling was very uncomfortable, his expression gradually became serious, and he sneered: "Ye Xiu, I admit that you are very smart, but you are not Representing that everyone else is an idiot trying to catch my eyeliner? I suggest you come up with a better excuse."

Ye Xiu was slightly taken aback, but he didn't mind the sarcasm in his tone, and said calmly, "You don't believe me?"

"Don't pretend to be in front of me, who doesn't know that you officials are all the same."

"I thought that after this incident, my image has been washed clean." Ye Xiu smiled, "Looking at you, could it be that you have experienced the oppression of some corrupt officials?"

Fang Rui's foolish expression instantly turned into panic, and he wanted to laugh out loud, but his lips moved, but he couldn't say a word.

The brief silence confirmed Ye Xiu's guess, his eyes softened, he curled his lips, and said persuasively, "Would you like to try to trust me, or treat me as a simple listener, anyway, you don't Suffer."

Ye Xiu thought it was a bit funny. When he and Su Muqiu collaborated to set up people's words, they would often sing|sing the red face and the bad face. Unfortunately, what he did was the thankless job of singing the red face. One day, things are unpredictable.

Fang Rui was slightly touched by his persistent attitude, took a deep breath, and said half-sarcastically, "Can I trust you? If I say that the one oppressing me is Fan Cheng, the left minister of your court, how dare you intervene?" ?"

Ye Xiu's heart skipped a beat, his gaze became deep, and he locked his face firmly, silently, waiting for him to continue.

There are two prime ministers in the imperial court, one is his father, and Fan Cheng is an existence who can sit on an equal footing with his father, and is highly appreciated by the emperor. He is really one person under ten thousand people, and no one dares to offend.

Fang Rui didn't need his response either, he closed his eyes and locked the pain in his eyes under his eyelids.He has been holding these things in his heart for a long time, and he has never told anyone else. As Ye Xiu said, it won't hurt him to talk about it. He can't keep squatting in prison with these thoughts, it's too aggrieved.

Although Ye Xiu said that he would only be locked up for three months, who knows if it is true.

"My father was also an official before. The Wupin county magistrate, who is not big or small, has been doing his own job in silence. There is nothing worthy of praise. He should not be in the eyes of Mr. Ye. But he can not only handle the affairs in the city properly. To me at that time, he was the most amazing person in the world to take care of family affairs and share family relationships with us." Fang Rui changed from his usual hippie smile and said with a blank expression, "Only It's a pity that such an ordinary and warm life was destroyed ten years ago."

Ye Xiu asked, "Because of Fan Cheng?"

Fang Rui looked at him, and nodded slowly: "At that time, a businessman reported to the government, claiming that his nemesis had used conspiracy to close down his shop, and hoped that my father would seek justice for him. My father investigated After finding out that that person had colluded with Fan Cheng, he found out some clues about Fan Cheng's corruption and bribery. Although my father was cautious, he was still noticed by Fan Cheng, and he managed to frame my father for an unwarranted crime. He was sentenced to death. My mother couldn't stand the blow, so she took poison late at night and followed him."

Even though Fang Rui described the past in a flat tone, Ye Xiu still felt his heart being tightly clenched, and the pain made him a little out of breath.Ten years ago, Fang Rui was only about ten years old. How did he grow up alone after both his parents passed away?

Thinking of his acquaintance with those beggars in the capital, Ye Xiu suddenly realized that he probably grew up under their upbringing, which is why he tried his best to give back.

All the secrets buried deep in his heart were poured out, Fang Rui felt that the big stone that was weighing on his heart was lifted, and he felt a lot lighter all of a sudden.Facts have proved that Ye Xiu is indeed a good listener. At least, he doesn't look at himself with sympathetic eyes like looking at a poor bug. Instead, he is very calm, but there are some complications in this calm.

Strange to say, he didn't even tell his best friend about these things, yet he let down his guard against Ye Xiu who caused him to go to jail.Fang Rui shrugged his shoulders, and said casually: "You should have guessed that those officials are all small shrimps, and the person behind them is Fan Cheng, a big fish. At best, your father is only at the same level as him, and even Fan Cheng Cheng is more popular in front of the emperor." He twitched the corners of his mouth, "After hearing about my father's fate, do you still dare to take the risk of investigating his affairs?"

Ye Xiu smiled lightly, and instead of answering his question, he asked, "Do you know why I gave up the official position assigned to me by the emperor and disappeared for so many years?"

Fang Rui was stunned, and looked at him in bewilderment.

"The position is indeed easy, and the salary is quite generous, but I have no interest. To be precise, working in Dali Temple is my ideal all along." Ye Xiu said, "I still have to blame it on my father. Prime Minister Fan is not very good at dealing with it. When I was a child, I only thought that he could not see others being equal to him, so I laughed at him a lot. Later, I found out that this person climbed to the position of Prime Minister of the Left in just a few years, and made a lot of cruelty behind his back. Means. But this man is very good at pretending. If my father hadn't mentioned it, I really wouldn't see anything wrong with him."

"I've always thought about joining Dali Temple in the future and getting rid of all the cancerous tumors in the imperial court." Ye Xiu said with a smile, "But you also know that doing such a thing is extremely risky, and those people can't just wait and do nothing. We investigate the truth, maybe we will send a master to carry out the assassination, and it may disappear from this world without a trace. So, after the imperial examination was over, I left the capital and went to the deep mountains to practice martial arts with a master. After so many years, it is considered a small achievement, at least no one hurt me in the capital."

"So..." Ye Xiu said solemnly, "I can tell you with certainty that as long as you break the law, I will do it when the Heavenly King comes, let alone Fan Cheng."

Fang Rui was stunned for a long time, finally came to his senses, and grasped the point: "Damn! So you've only practiced martial arts for seven years, and you're so good at it? I've been practicing martial arts since I was fucking ten years old, and I'm still the best at martial arts!" Age, after ten years of practice, you can't beat you who only studied for seven years? You still practice from the beginning, your bones are hardened, and you can practice good kung fu so fucking well? Is there any justice in this world! "

Winning the first place in the palace examination at a young age is enough to prove his wisdom. He can still be like a fish in water after learning martial arts.Why did all the benefits fall on him alone?

"No, no, it must be because your master is too powerful."

"Hehe." Seeing him constantly comforting himself, Ye Xiu couldn't help laughing, and teased, "Sometimes it's something called talent that does the trick, you'd better accept your fate."

"Get lost!" Fang Rui rolled his eyes.

"Actually, you're pretty good too. Your lightness skill is not much worse than mine." Ye Xiu laughed.

Isn't that still worse than you?He clearly said the truth, but Fang Rui's words sounded rather smug, and he continued to roll his eyes.

"Be careful that the eyeballs roll out." Ye Xiu teased him, restrained his smile,
