In the evening, everyone gathered together and had dinner in the government office.
I saw Master Shi pulling Xiao Yu'er over and saying, "Xiao Yu'er, sit down and eat with us."
"It still doesn't work.
I'll just go to the kitchen to find something to eat later."
Xiao Yu'er seemed a little scared.
Indeed, with so many elders sitting here, how could he not be scared.
"It's okay, don't be so formal, sit down."
Master Shi pushed Xiao Yu'er who didn't dare to step forward.
Seeing how nervous Xiao Yu'er was, I naturally said, "Xiao Yu'er, how about you sit next to me."
"Okay."
Xiao Yu'er glanced at Master Shi who refused to let go of her, and immediately agreed, running and sitting down.
"Then I'll sit next to you."
Master Shi ran over and sat on the edge.
I saw Master Shi always looking at Xiao Yuer and smiling, so I knew what was going on.
I smiled secretly: It seems that I have to help them both.
"Fourth brother, today we brothers have a rare opportunity to chat like this.
Don't be restrained."
Mr.
Ba looked dangerous.
"Then we really need to stay drunk and not come home tonight."
Fourth Master also said with a smile.
I saw Master Jiu take a sip from the wine glass, and he didn't seem that happy.
The Fourteenth Master noticed the Jiu Master's little mood, and started to shout to the two of them: "Fourth Brother, Eighth Brother, don't just talk, we also have to eat food."
"Yes, we are all a little hungry."
Master Shi also joined in the fun.
Master Ba probably thought that it was a bunch of foodies who were reacting, so he smiled and said: "Today, the fourth brother is the leader, so I ask the fourth brother to use the chopsticks first."
I looked at the Fourth Master, who looked at each other and said, "Then I will be disrespectful."
The Fourth Master began to pick up a piece of chicken, and others began to pick up their chopsticks.
Fourth Master took a piece of yam and put it in my bowl.
I politely said, "Thank you, Fourth Master."
Fourth Master just smiled faintly.
"Here, I'll give you a piece too."
Master Shi took a piece of fried squid and gave it to Xiao Yu'er.
"Thank you, Master Shi."
Xiao Yu'er took the squid in the bowl and began to eat it.
He must have been a little nervous.
Master Jiu was just eating and drinking, and only took the time to look at me a few more times, but I was busy eating and didn't notice at all.
The Eighth Master and the Fourth Master were also chatting.
It was probably the Fourteenth Master who could notice the Ninth Master.
In the evening, Master Eight and Master Nine were sitting in the yard, each holding a carving knife and carving little figures.
Master Eight secretly observed Master Jiu while carving.
"Bago, you must have something to say."
Master Jiu blew on the carved wood chips.
"Ninth brother, I noticed during the dinner that you seemed to be very unhappy.
Of course I know your reasons, but as your brother, I still have to persuade you."

Eighth Master "Brother Bage, aren't you saying that you want me to give up just like my fourteenth brother?"
Master Jiu continued to carve.
Ba Ye put down the knife in his hand: "You have also seen that the relationship between fourth brother and Shu Qiao is already very stable.
If you don't let go of your obsession, if fourth brother finds out in the future, you may not even have the chance to be friends.
No more."
Mr.
Ba tried his best to comfort him.
Master Jiu suddenly stopped carving, and thought about what Bage said made sense: If I insisted on asking her to give me an answer, he would definitely choose Fourth Brother.
By then, maybe as Bage said, he wouldn't even be friends.
Opportunity.
Seeing Master Jiu's reaction, Master Ba knew that he should let Master Jiu think about it.
He stood up, picked up the puppet and patted Master Jiu on the shoulder: "It's time to think about it, but go to bed early."
Master Jiu said softly "Hmm", but his thoughts were still stuck on just now.
Master Jiu was sitting in the yard basking in the sun.
Someone was holding an umbrella to protect him from the sun, and he was reading a book in his hand.
"Master Jiu, are you basking in the sun or blowing in the wind?"
I walked over.
"The air outside is relatively fresh, and I can't move around at will.
It's just suitable for me to read outside and enhance my self-cultivation."
Jiu Ye said happily.
"It seems that Mr.
Jiu is finally working hard to become stronger.
I'm happy to congratulate him."
I made a congratulatory gesture.
Master Jiu smiled proudly, and I walked to the stone bench next to him and sat on it.
"By the way, are your injuries healed?"
Master Jiu suddenly asked gently.
I touched the gauze on my head and said casually: "Actually, it's nothing serious.
I just kept it on because I was afraid of accidentally scratching it."
Master Jiu nodded in relief.
Master Ba suddenly walked over, his steps seemed a little hasty.
Master Ba said with some worry: "Bao Xing has been captured, but he wants to see you."
"Then I really want to meet you."
Master Jiu suddenly became serious again.
I haven’t seen this for a long time, and suddenly I feel so uncomfortable.
Master Jiu slowly walked in and saw disheveled Bao Xing sitting alone in front of the cell bed.
Master Jiu: "Bao Xing, please hand over the account book.
Maybe I can make your death more comfortable."
"Haha."
Bao Xing stood up and walked to the railing.
"Ninth Prince, since I have committed the crime of being a big mouth, I have never thought about dying comfortably.
However, there are so many people buried with me, including you, so I will die as well."
Place."
"What do you mean?"
Master Jiu slowly approached and asked, his eyes so sharp that he could kill someone.

All of us stood outside the door and kept wondering: Why did he only see Ah Jiu?
Now that the women have not been rescued, Bao Xing will definitely not tell it easily.
I saw Master Jiu walking out in a hurry, with a serious look on his face.
Master Eight stepped forward and asked, "Brother Jiu, what happened?"
Master Jiu said seriously: "Bao Xing has secretly sent the account book to the palace.
If I don't go back to stop it, I'm afraid something will happen."
Master Ba knew that this was a big event: "This matter is not trivial.
Let's return to Beijing as soon as possible."
After Ba Ye said this, he wanted to turn around and leave, "Wait a minute, Ba Brother."
Master Jiu walked up to me: "Those women haven't been rescued yet, and Bao Xing has cut off their food and drink.
I believe you can find them."
"Well, I will find them."
I said firmly.
After Master Jiu finished speaking, he immediately left with Master Eight, Master Ten and Master Nine: If the account books were sent to the emperor, Master Jiu would definitely be unable to defend himself.
If Kangxi was furious, wouldn't it be me who had harmed Master Jiu again?
Now, Bao can do it The men have disappeared.
Only by finding the woman can we have a chance to prove Master Jiu's innocence.
I came to the ancestral hall, looked at the wall, took down the paintings on the wall, and faced the door.
I moved a chair and sat in front of the wall: This was obviously the exit, why did it suddenly become a cellar.
Even if Bao Xing wanted to hide it, it would be too late in just one day.
If there was any mistake, there must be some detail that I didn't discover.
While I was thinking, I didn't notice that Fourth Master had already walked over.
"If a person thinks, maybe his thinking will always be fixed, why not find the other person's flaws."
Fourth Master.
I thought for a moment: Yes, as long as you talk, there will always be flaws.
I stood up and grabbed the Fourth Master's shoulders happily: "Thank you, Fourth Master."
Then I ran out quietly.
The Fourth Master probably thought my excitement was funny, so he just smiled there alone.
I walked to the fence and saw Bao Xing like a monk concentrating on meditation.
"Bao Xing, don't you think it's a bit cruel to kill so many women and unborn children?"
Me.
"Cruel" Bao Xing smiled disdainfully: "It's not just because of you two that I am in such a bad situation now.
Since you are so kind, then they have to pay the price for your kindness."
"I will let them out of that door.
You won't get what you want."
I said fiercely.
In fact, I really wanted to know what he was going to say next.
"You will never let him out from that door.
No one will notice."
Bao Xing shook his head and laughed.
"You are really crazy."
I left this cell and returned to the Buddhist hall.
Since he said I would never let them out through this door, this door must be the key.
I lingered for a long time, biting my fingers, not knowing what to do.
I sat down and stared at the door for a while: What exactly was not noticed.

Yingqi and Shilan came over and saw me staring at the wall in front of me intently, not noticing anyone stepping in.
Yingqi: "Shu Qiao, why do you keep staring at this strong guy?"
I stood up and smiled: "According to Bao Xing, this door is still the key.
After thinking about it, I realized that the cellar is definitely not newly built, and it is not at this speed, so the flaw is still in this door."
"Sister Qiao, thank you for your hard work."
Shilan handed over a bowl of pickled vegetable and meat porridge: "You haven't eaten for a day, so drink some porridge first."
I pushed the porridge: "Wait a minute, I want to study it more."
"If you don't have a full stomach, how can you have the strength to study it?"
Fourth Master walked in from outside and took the porridge from Shilan's hand.
"Fourth Master."
Yingqi said politely.
The fourth master nodded and scooped up a spoonful.
I saw that since the fourth master had been so polite to feed porridge to a little girl like me, I naturally couldn't refuse.
Although I don't really want to drink it, I can't be so pretentious that I won't give it to the Fourth Master.
I smiled indifferently, perhaps mixed with inner uneasiness.
I heard the sound of the stone door being opened.
I turned around and saw that it was Shilan squatting on the ground, fiddling with the mechanism: "What's the flaw in this door?"
I smiled and took the porridge from Fourth Master's hand: "I'll do it myself."
Fourth Master gave me the bowl, and I looked at the door while eating, but I always felt that this door was a little different from what I had seen before.
By the way, I suddenly remembered what was different: "This door is opened in the wrong way."
I blurted it out at once.
"What?"
Fourth Master asked.
Shilan and Yingqi just looked at me in surprise.
I put down the porridge and immediately ran to the door.
I turned around and said, "Tear down this door."
Yingqi immediately stepped forward and said, "I'll call someone to dismantle it right away."
I nodded, and since there were a lot of people in the room, I stood outside the door and waited.
"The door is open."
Yingqi came out to report.
We ran in together, and sure enough the door opened: "Yingqi, take someone in to search."
"Yes."
Yingqi turned around and shouted to them: "Come with me."
I saw everyone climbing in, and I gradually felt a little happier.
"You two girls go back and rest first.
I'll follow you and take a look."
Fourth Master.
"Fourth Master, be careful."
I was afraid that Bao Xing might have set up some trap at the other end of the secret passage.
"I know, you can go back."
Fourth Master patted my shoulder and followed them in.
I returned to the bedroom and started to drink porridge comfortably.
"Sister Qiao, where is Mr.
Jiu?"
Shilan asked curiously.

I put down the spoon and said, "Master Jiu is encountering something now, so after those people are rescued, Master Fourth and I will return to Beijing immediately."
"What happened to Master Jiu?"
Shilan asked nervously.
I held his hand: "Don't worry, Master Jiu will handle it himself.
There may be less opportunities for us to meet in the future, but I will still come to see you when I have time."
Shilan thought for a moment: "Sister, can I come with you?"
"We will leave in a hurry this time.
When things are settled, I will ask the fourth master to send someone to pick you up."
I comforted her.
After all, she would have to rush back to the capital by then.
Shilan had a heart disease again, so she was right.
She is not in good health.
"Shu Qiao, those women have been rescued.
I have selected three women to go back with you to testify for Master Jiu."
Yingqi walked in and finished his words in one fell swoop.
"Okay, let's go back to Beijing immediately.
Where is the Fourth Master?"
I looked behind me, but the Fourth Master had not appeared yet.
"Fourth Master has already prepared the carriages and horses, waiting for you to pass."
Yingqi.
Then I immediately said: "Then I'll leave first, see you next time."
I looked at Shilan, nodded, and left immediately.
Shilan was a little worried and said to her brother: "Brother, how about we go and help Sister Qiao too."
"No, your sister Qiao is in a hurry this time, and your body won't be able to bear it."
Yingqi told the truth.
But when he saw that Shilan seemed a little unhappy, he comforted her and said, "Help me take care of those girls.
When the matter is resolved, I will take you to Beijing."
"Yeah."
Shilan seemed to hear the hope and nodded happily.
I sat on the carriage and kept holding my stomach with my hand: Oops, I feel dizzy and my stomach feels so uncomfortable.
It seems that riding in a carriage may not be comfortable.
"What's wrong?
Are you a little dizzy?"
Fourth Master looked at me and asked.
I shook my head: "It's okay."
"You are always so strong, when will you learn to act like a baby for yourself?"
Fourth Master sat close to me and gently rubbed my back with his hands.
I smiled, and suddenly I felt something was wrong.
A big wave of warmth gradually came up from my stomach: "Uh" I turned my head and vomited on the carriage: "It's so embarrassing."
I wiped my mouth in embarrassment and immediately used my left hand to cover the worried fourth master's eyes: "You are not allowed to look, I'm afraid I will disgust you."
Fourth Master held my hand and slowly put it down: "Do you think I will be such a person?"
I thought about it and it was true.
How could a person who has to live his whole life never see such a tragic situation?
"How about we take a break and have the carriage cleaned."
Fourth Master.

I nodded and rested on the side of the road.
I felt that I was almost done, so I said to Fourth Master: "Fourth Master, why don't you ride back with me, and the three women will be escorted to the capital by people from the Yamen."
"Then are you still feeling uncomfortable now?"
Fourth Master asked with concern.
I paused for a while and shook my head: "It's completely fine."
I opened my hands to show that I wasn't lying.
"Okay, I'll go give the instructions."
Fourth Master looked at me very understandingly, and I looked at his back.
I didn't know if it was because I felt guilty and was found out that I was lying, or because I felt that it was too much trouble for Fourth Master, and I always felt a little guilty.
