Ren Zhi and Duan Yihong drank the whole night, but he never realized that he could actually drink very well.When it was about to dawn, Ren Zhi was already drowsy.Duan Yihong seemed to be still awake, he helped Ren Zhi up, threw him on the couch in the inner room, and pulled up Xiang Bai who was already asleep beside him, put his back on his back, bent over and covered Ren Zhi with a quilt, Then he turned his face and kissed Xiang Bai's cheek on the back, and said softly, "Go home."

Ren Zhi heard Duan Yihong's deliberately light footsteps, and the sound of closing the door cautiously, opened his eyes, glanced at the carved top of the bed, and raised the corners of his lips with a wry smile. Others have homes, but he wants to Sleep in this fireworks field after getting drunk.He closed his eyes again and slowly fell asleep.

Unexpectedly, it was a rare good sleep.

Ren Zhi was woken up by someone knocking on the door outside, pulling Ren Zhi back from the meeting with Duke Zhou, he rubbed his eyes, sat up, and said impatiently, "Who is that?" ?”

There was a rough voice outside the door, "It's from the government! Open the door!"

Ren Zhi frowned and got out of bed, and when he opened the door, he saw several police officers standing outside, and asked dissatisfiedly, "What's the matter?"

"Someone escaped from prison last night and disappeared into this Fireworks Lane. Now they are searching from house to house. Did you see anyone behaving strangely last night?" A policeman questioned Ren Zhi at the door, and several other policemen rushed in. Searched around the room.

Ren Zhiyin removed the impatience between his brows, and said flatly, "No."

The policeman looked Yi Yi up and down in disbelief, then turned to the other policemen in the room, "How is it?"

"nobody."

The catcher quickly turned his gaze back to Ren Zhi, "Just you?"

"Yes." Ren Zhi yawned, "Is there anything else?"

"You came here to sleep alone in a room with fireworks, is there a ghost or something? You opened the door so slowly just now, did you hide the fugitive?" The policeman looked at Ren Zhi suspiciously, and suddenly said road.

Ren Zhi raised his hand to wipe the corners of his eyes, and looked at the policeman with some amusement, "Is this how you usually settle cases?"

"How do we settle the case, should you hand it in?" The policeman raised his voice, "Take him down first and hand it over to the lord, and the others will continue to search elsewhere."

Ren Zhi stretched out his arms lazily, bent his lips and glanced at the policeman, turned his head and walked downstairs, all the way out of the alley of Fireworks Alley, he saw a scholar-like man standing at the alley, looking He glanced at Ren, obviously very surprised, and then came back to his senses, "I have seen His Royal Highness King Pingan."

The corner of Ren Zhi's mouth slightly raised, "Ji Zhi, Mr. Ji, it has been several months since we left Yunling Town that day, and I never expected to see you again and I have changed our identities."

Ji Zhi smiled, and waved his hand at the arrester who brought Ren before, "Continue to investigate the case, I will catch up with His Highness." The arrester looked at Ren Yi curiously, turned and left.

Ren Zhi looked at Ji Zhi for a while, only to see that Ji Zhi was wearing a light-colored robe, which hadn't changed much from when he was in Langzhou that day.Ren Zhi looked at him for a while and said with a smile, "I don't know where Master Ji is now?"

Ji Zhi smiled and said, "The Prisoner of Dali Temple, from the ninth grade, is not worth mentioning."

Ren Zhi raised his eyebrows slightly. He originally thought that Duan Yixian's efforts to bring this person into Beijing must be reused. Even if Duan Yixian didn't mention it, Emperor Jingyan would never give him one because of Mr. Ji's relationship. From a small official of the ninth rank, there is another possibility that Duan Yixian did not disclose the identity of this person to Emperor Jingyan, and quietly placed him in the capital for his own use, until the great cause is accomplished in the future, and then he will be reused.

This Jizhi came all the way from Langzhou. He won such a small official but he didn't have a trace of resentment. He was still doing well. It was obvious that he understood Duan Yixian's thoughts and kept his treasures in him. He really lived up to Duan Yixian's love for him. appreciation.

Thinking of Duan Yixian, Ren Zhi suddenly felt a little bored in his chest, forced himself to control the melancholy, and smiled at Ji Zhi, "Master Ji's character and character are hard to find in this court, and it will be easy to ascend to a high position in the future. "

Ji Zhi raised the corners of his lips slightly, and smiled at Ren Zhi, "Then I will borrow a good word from Your Highness."

There was a lot of noise in the alley behind him, Ren Zhi glanced back, turned and smiled at Ji Zhi, "Then don't bother your lord to handle the case, we'll talk about it when we have time."

"Farewell to Your Highness." Ji Zhi bowed slightly, watching Ren Zhiyuan leave.

Ren Zhi wandered around the street again, overnight, he suddenly felt tired, he didn't want to go back to the palace, he didn't want to see Duan Yixian, so he could only wander here aimlessly.

Ren Zhi was strolling in the street, when suddenly a man came riding a fast horse from a distance, disturbing the pedestrians on the street and the vendors on both sides of the road, causing screams again and again.Ren Zhi raised his eyebrows, picked up a small stone from the ground, and flew towards the horse.

The horse was galloping, and suddenly neighed loudly, then leaned to the side, and fell to the ground, even the man on the horse fell off, and rolled directly in front of Ren Zhi, the man fell from the ground in a state of embarrassment. Got up and was about to get angry, but happened to meet Ren Zhi's face, hurriedly cupped his fists and bowed, "Your Highness, I have found you."

Only then did Ren Zhi recognize that this person was the guard next to Emperor Jing Yan, he raised his eyebrows and asked, "Why are you in such a hurry to disturb others."

"Your Majesty ordered his subordinates to take you back to the palace immediately." The guard said respectfully.

Ren Zhi was puzzled, "What's the matter?"

The guard hesitated for a moment, and then said, "Ms. Concubine De seems to be...not very well."

Surprised, Ren Zhi stepped forward a few steps, and patted the horse on the ground. The horse stood up abruptly, and Ren Zhifei got on the horse and galloped towards the palace gate.

Ever since Fang Yong was executed, Concubine De has been ill, but the imperial doctor came to see that it was a heart disease and needed to be recuperated, and when she was in a good mood, the illness would naturally recover.Therefore, when Ren Zhi was in the palace, he often accompanied Concubine De. He only felt that her health had improved a lot in the past few days, so he was a little relieved. Why did she suddenly...

He doesn't have a deep relationship with Concubine De, it's just that he was an orphan for 15 years, and he was able to find his mother in his lifetime, probably because of the nature of mother and child, and he pityed Concubine De for half his life, but he got closer to her. Knowing that her health was worrying, she was already very anxious, and ran into the palace before she had time to think.

The Hall of Yihe was cold for a few days, and suddenly there were many more people. He let the maids who were saluting all the way at the entrance of the hall be brushed aside, and rushed straight into the inner hall. Before he had time to salute Emperor Jingyan, he rushed to She walked over to Concubine De's bedside, only to see Concubine De closed her eyes tightly without any reaction.

Ren Zhi was stunned for a moment, then suddenly turned around and shouted, "Where's the imperial doctor?"

The imperial physician who was already trembling at the side suddenly knelt down, "My condolences to Your Highness, Your Majesty has passed away."

Ren Zhi's eyes widened, he looked at the imperial doctor in disbelief, he brushed him away suddenly, sat down beside De Concubine's bed again, took De Concubine's already cold hand, and said softly, "Mother Concubine, The son is back."

But got no response.

In the past few months when Ren Zhi and Concubine De have known each other, every time he speaks, he will definitely get a gentle response from Concubine De, even when Concubine De is depressed and sick and lying on the sickbed, every time he sees Ren Zhi Sometimes, he would always smile softly at him, as if he wanted to make up for all the tenderness he owed him over the past ten years.

But now, this person will never speak to him again, call his name softly, and straighten his messed up robe.Even though she always thought that her only son had become an incomplete man because of these ten years of wandering, when she looked at him, there was only love and lingering apology.

Ren Zhi's tears suddenly poured down violently, he couldn't remember the last time he shed tears, he raised his hand and touched his face, touching his hands passionately.He stood up unsteadily, pushed away the servant who was about to step forward to help, and walked towards the outside of the palace.

Fang Yong was beheaded, Concubine De died of illness, from then on, he really has no relatives in this world.

Emperor Jing Yan sighed upon seeing Ren Zhi's reaction, and said to Zhang Cheng who was beside him, "Go and have a look."

Zhang Cheng nodded, and hurriedly chased outside the hall, and finally caught up with the distraught Ren Zhi outside the door, and hurriedly said, "Your Highness."

Ren Zhi didn't look back, and continued to walk forward, but Zhang Cheng grabbed his sleeve, Ren Zhi turned around in a daze, looked at Zhang Cheng, blinked, and burst into more tears, "Father."

Zhang Cheng had never seen Ren Zhi like this before, before he had time to remind Ren Zhi of his title, he took out a brocade handkerchief from his sleeve, and carefully wiped away the tears from Ren Zhi's face, but more tears poured out.Rao Zhang Cheng had stayed in this harem for decades, seeing Ren Zhi like this, his already hardened heart softened, so the two of them stood outside the door of the Hall of Harmony, one crying More than that, one kept wiping with a brocade handkerchief.

Ren Zhi tugged at Zhang Cheng's sleeve, tears kept flowing, he had no other thoughts in his mind, he just felt that the swelling pain in his chest was unstoppable, and only tears could relieve it. He had endured it in the harem for seven or eight years, but in this For a moment, it finally broke out.

Duan Yixian got the news and rushed into the palace, but he never expected to see such a scene at the gate of the Hall of Harmony.He seemed to have never seen that kind of tearful, helpless Ren Zhi, even when he was the youngest, when Ren Zhi was just carried into the palace by Quelin, he had never cried like this.

At that moment, he only felt that his chest was being torn and hurt.
