In the south of Yanzhou City, there is Jia Jiaxiang Inn, a famous time-honored brand in Yanzhou City, with fair prices and enthusiastic service. Therefore, it is famous far and wide, attracting many people from all walks of life to stay. Of course, it is common for people dressed in scholars like Tang Jiusheng to stay. Jixiang Inn is a semi-open large courtyard house with two-story buildings on both sides, and the main house is a three-story brick and wood building. There are red lanterns hanging in front of the inn, with four golden characters "Jixiang Inn" on it, you can see it from a distance.

There is a stable on the right side of Jixiang Inn, a large courtyard in the middle, and a bluestone road in front of the door, which is well-connected. Xiahou Lingyu ran to ask for three upper rooms, four hundred coins in copper coins. Xiahou Lingyu is now generous in spending money, no matter how much he was leaning against the big tree of King Wei behind him, and there is no shortage of silver flowers.

The waiter asked someone to bring the three of them into the stable, and then he smiled and took Xiahou Lingyu, Tang Jiusheng and Shui Ruyue to the second floor of the main room. The main room is divided into three floors, Tiandi Ren, the third floor is Tianzi room, the second floor is the earth room, and the first floor is the herbivorous room. The third floor is the most luxurious decoration, so it is the heaven room, and the second floor is the earth room. The second floor is the earth room, and the first floor is the humanzi room. The decoration of the third floor is the most luxurious, so it is the heaven room, and the second floor is the average, so it is called the earth room.

The waiter invited the three of them to the door of the room, and handed the big iron key to the door to Xiahou Lingyu, and smiled and said, "Butler, this is Room No. 5!" Xiahou Lingyu took the key and thanked Tang Xiaoer in an old fashion. The waiter went there by himself. Room No. 5 is on the second floor, and the room is three. Xiahou Lingyu, as a book boy, lives in the outermost room. Tang Jiusheng and Shui Ruyue and his wife live in the middle. The three of them are very satisfied with the room. Although it is not very luxurious, it is spacious and bright. The house is cleaned spotlessly, and the windows are clean.

It was still early at this time, but when Tang Jiusheng lay on the bed, he fell asleep. Shui Ruyue smiled and sat aside to beat Tang Jiusheng's legs. Tang Jiusheng joked: "I'm so embarrassed that I actually asked the princess to beat her legs himself. I'm so ashamed of being so proud!"

Shui Ruyue gently pinched Tang Jiusheng's leg and sighed quietly, "Stop coming, look, I'll give you beautiful! Look, the youngest prince in the Great Shang Kingdom is so cool, I hugged my door, and hugged my left and right, and I'll be beautiful women in the next life. If you become a prince, you will know this mood."

Tang Jiusheng laughed, sat up and put Shui Ruyue down beside him, and let Shui Ruyue pillow on his arm, "Silly Yue'er, this prince is really as good as you think? Since I became the prince, I have been assassinating. Is this throne or a death talisman? It's okay if Yin Quan and Yin Chun hate me, there are still a group of people in the court who impeach me at any time, and they all hate others and laugh at others. As for the future of the Shang Dynasty, apart from Yin Guang sitting on the dragon throne, how many people really care about it?"

The two of them looked at the snow-white ceiling together, and Shui Ruyue smiled and said, "You just stand and speak without a pain. Do you believe it or not, you hand over the throne? How many people are thinking about it? If you don't be a prince, there are many people who want to do it. Below one person and above millions of people, this position is envied by others!"

Tang Jiusheng disagreed and said, "What's there to be envious? Like me, I am the young master of the National Master's Mansion. Apart from practicing martial arts and studying, I think about how to be free and easy every day. If the court palace in Daxia attacked the National Master's Mansion that year, my mother might still be alive. My father was in charge of the affairs of the National Master's Mansion. How big is my father to take care of it? What should I worry about? Every day, just hang out with the beautiful junior sister, and be in front of the moon, and I am so comfortable!"

Shui Ruyue burst out with a slight laugh, and her pink fist gently hit Tang Jiusheng's chest, "Adult is not comfortable, and you are not comfortable! You can't always hide under your parents' wings, right? That is, you have practiced the Nine-Turn Heavenly Profound Art now, so you can't, otherwise you will be a father now, right?"

Tang Jiusheng laughed loudly, scratched Shui Ruyue's ribs and said, "Yue'er, you are not shy! Can't you?"

Shui Ruyue was tickling for a long time before she said shyly: "Oh, you are so annoying, you just know it anyway! Shuang'er is looking forward to your Tianxuan Jue almost five times, and now she is finally getting what she wants! You have married several beautiful wives, but you can't be a nominal couple every day, right? If you give birth to a few beautiful babies in the future, your Tang family will be considered a successor!"

Tang Jiusheng gently pinched Shui Ruyue's delicate little nose, looked at her nose wrinkled, and laughed and said, "I'm afraid it's not Shuang'er, but you think it's yourself? Now the eldest brother already has a son, and our Tang family has successors! Why am I anxious? I am just a second son, not the boss. If Da Shang was not in trouble now, how could I be the turn of a prince? The normal position of the national master should be the eldest brother, I just blame him for not being able to be a good man. Unfortunately, I don't care about the position of the national master!"

Shui Ruyue shook her head and said, "Not rare? You have to have it first to be qualified to say it's not rare! Anyway, with the title of the prince, you are very convenient for you to do many things. No matter where you go, no matter how unhappy the local officials are, they have to pretend to be smiling to you. If you are not the prince, just the prince of the National Teachers' Mansion, they can flatter or not, that's different!

Now someone comes to you to sue King Jiangdong. That’s because you are King Wei, otherwise who will sue you?”

Tang Jiusheng said distressedly: "But this King of Guard can only manage one way of Jiannan Road. The secret decree given by the emperor is very clear. Under special circumstances, I cannot call on other roads, nor can I interfere in other roads at will. Maybe I am afraid that I will be authoritarian too? When I arrived at this Jiangdong Road, if I had not given the gold medal from our Tang family, I would not even be able to deal with a county magistrate, let alone the King of Jiangdong!"

Shui Ruyue patted Tang Jiusheng's chest and laughed and said, "You are just too worried. What are you afraid of? Isn't the imperial gold medal now in your hands? Young master, you still have to be alone like a while ago, killing and killing, and be like a real man! You have to take care of all unfair things, and even the affairs of King Jiangdong must be taken care of so that you can live up to the King of Guards! Some things must be taken as the only one. If you don't sit in this position, do you want those bad people to sit in this position? Let's talk about it, don't be afraid after doing it!"

Tang Jiusheng said seriously: "I just hope that the Xu sued King Jiangdong because of the rebellion of King Jiangdong. I want to pull out all these nails one by one. Don't look at the calmness of Jiangdong Road now, there is also a rush of undercurrents inside. The slight chariot Marquis Yuchi has followed the King of Lingnan Yin Chun. If King Jiangdong Yin Zhong also had a secret deal with Yin Quan, then can Chu Zilie alone hold on?"

Xiahou Lingyu coughed twice outside, then knocked on the door, and deliberately teased: "Prince, Princess, there are brothers from Xiaowei outside asking for a meeting. Can I let him in? I am afraid of disturbing the rest of the prince and the princess! Also, Senior Sister Ouyang and Junior Brother Jiang Si are already living next door!"

These days, Xiahou Lingyu has found a bargain. She is the youngest in Tongtianguan. She always calls her senior brother and sister whenever she sees her. Now she follows Tang Jiusheng, picks up bargain and calls Jiang Dayi to be the fourth junior brother. Mr. Jiang protested at the beginning, and Xiahou Lingyu smiled and said, "Your third senior brother's father is my uncle. Even from here, you have to call me senior sister!" Jiang Dayi protested several times but it was invalid, so he had no choice but to recognize this cheap senior sister.

Tang Jiusheng smiled and said, "Damn girl, please bring him in! The prince and the princess are whispering, and the beautiful atmosphere has been destroyed by you. What's the use of asking for instructions?" Tang Jiusheng sat up on the bed, and Shui Ruyue was also tilted aside. The two of them heard footsteps in the room outside. It was obvious that the ox guard had walked in.

Xiahou Lingyu stood aside, and the wolf man in brown casual clothes beat a thousand with one leg and said respectfully: "I am the wolf man Jing Changxian, please see the prince, the princess! I am the order of Linghu Yushi and come back to report to the prince that Linghu Yushi has brought people to protect Xu, but in addition to the government yamen runners, there are still people who are not identified around the Xu family, so we have not let Xu leave the yard for the time being."

Linghu Yu had already been promoted to commander, but a few days ago, he fought with a bat envoy from the Blood Shadow Hall, which made Xin Zhiping's previously planned encirclement and annihilation plan failed. Xin Zhiping was furious and was demoted from commander to feathers. However, Linghu Yu didn't care. As long as there was a fight, it would be fine. Tang Jiusheng nodded and looked at Jing Changxian carefully. Seeing his thick eyebrows, he described his mighty, his slender waist and arms, and at least a third-rank martial arts realm, he asked: "Have you asked Xu what the King of Jiangdong?"

Jing Changxian said respectfully: "Xu said that you must see the prince himself before you can explain what you want to sue. I am afraid that Linghu Yushi was sent by King Jiangdong, and I would not believe it no matter how you enlighten me. So Linghu Yushi ordered his subordinates to come and inform the prince quickly! Please tell me what to do next!"

Tang Jiusheng smiled and said, "Okay, since that's the case, let's go immediately. Let's talk to Xu before we talk! Yue'er, Sister Lingyu, let's change clothes and set off!" The three of them packed up. Tang Jiusheng shook his folding fan and swayed into the Jixiang Inn. Shui Ruyue looked coquettish next to Tang Jiusheng. Xiahou Lingyu dressed up as a book boy and made a way for Tang Jiusheng in front. Jing Changxian led the way. Ouyang Yanran and Jiang Dayi followed far behind. The inn was left to guard the wolf warriors of the Xiaowei.

Sun Demin's house is located in the east of the city, less than four miles from Jixiang Inn. Under Jing Changxian's long-distance leadership, Tang Jiusheng and the other two came to the backyard wall of Sun Demin's house. Jing Changxian made a hidden gesture and walked to the side, probably to lure those unknown people who were hidden in the dark. Tang Jiusheng and the other two jumped into the wall from the backyard of Sun's house. Ouyang Yanran and Jiang Dayi lurked in the dark to observe and prevent someone from entering the yard secretly.

The Sun family was a courtyard house that had entered. Tang Jiusheng and the other two jumped down from the ear room and looked around. They saw that the walls of the courtyard were covered with red dried peppers. There were two pomegranate trees in the courtyard. Several chicks were digging food in the soil. They were not afraid of seeing strangers. A well was in front of the west wing room. There was a swing on the wellhead made of stone, with a rope hanging on it, and a wooden barrel placed aside.

Suddenly someone in the ear room reached out and grabbed Tang Jiusheng. Tang Jiusheng was about to take action, but the man whispered: "Prince, it's me, Linghu Yu!" Tang Jiusheng then closed his fists. Linghu Yu pulled Tang Jiusheng and the other two into Ming in the east wing room

During the incident, it turned out that Xu was waiting in the east wing room. In the main room, a Xiaowei pretended to be Xu, confused and secretly surveillanced the people in the yard to prevent someone from eavesdropping outside.

Linghu Yu hit a thousand words with one leg: "Prince, I ordered Hu Yu to meet the prince, Princess!" Linghu Yu turned around and looked at Xu and said: "My prince is here. If you have something to say, tell the prince!" Tang Jiusheng looked around and saw that there was a desk and a bookshelves in the house. There were dozens of books in the bookshelf, and there were pens, ink, paper and inkstones on the desk. It was obviously a scholar's room. Tang Jiusheng was not polite, so he pulled a chair and let Shui Ruyue sit. He sat next to him, Xiahou Lingyu stood beside Shui Ruyue, and Linghu Yu stood beside Tang Jiusheng.

Xu looked at Tang Jiusheng, and his figure looked a little like when he was complaining in the morning, but his face was different. Xu hesitated for a moment. Tang Jiusheng understood what she was thinking, reached out to lift her face off and smiled and said, "Xu, stop my convoy today and say you want to sue King Jiangdong? What are you going to sue King Jiangdong?"

Xu looked carefully and found that it was indeed the King of Wei. He was overjoyed and knelt down in front of Tang Jiusheng and whispered: "Minister's daughter Xu, pay homage to the prince, the prince, Qiansui, Qiansui, Qiansui!"

Tang Jiusheng looked at Xu carefully and saw that she was wearing a thorn hairpin and cloth skirt without applying makeup and dressed simply. Although she was only a man-like figure, she did not look like an ordinary woman, as if she was a poet. Tang Jiusheng raised his head and said, "Xu, get up and talk! Linghu Yu, give her a seat!" Linghu Yu agreed and went to move a chair.

Xu stood up from the ground, but said he refused to sit no matter what. He shook his head and said, "The prince and the empress are on the way, so how can there be a seat for the common girl? If the prince comes in person, the common girl will be grateful!" Seeing that she was very respectful in her respect, Tang Jiusheng did not force her.

Xu said in tears: "Prince, you are finally here. The young lady only asks the young lady to make the decision for the young lady! My husband is Sun Demin, and he is a scholar in the fourth year of Chenghua! He was originally aide to the Jiangdong Prince's Mansion. Recently, he was chased by King Yinzhong of Jiangdong. Now he has nowhere to seek justice. He sued the young lady here!" As Xu said that, he went to brew a pot of coarse tea and poured tea for Tang Jiusheng and Shui Ruyue.

When Tang Jiusheng heard Xu's words that her husband was an aide to the Jiangdong Prince's Mansion, he immediately became energetic. After saying "Oh", he asked again: "Since your husband is an aide to the Jiangdong Prince's Mansion, why did King Jiangdong chase your husband again? Does your husband know about the Jiangdong Prince's Mansion? Is King Jiangdong going to kill him to silence him?"

Xu shook his head and said, "Your Majesty, the young lady does not know the whereabouts of my husband. Two months ago, the King of Jiangdong sent someone to our house to ask about my husband's whereabouts. He also sent someone to search our house inside and outside, but found nothing. He forced him to ask many times but failed, and then he left. The housekeeper from the Prince of Jiangdong's Mansion said, my husband kidnapped a concubine of Jiangdong and eloped. My husband is a dignified gentleman. How could he have a concubine of Jiangdong escaped? Since then, some unknown people have been wandering around in my family."

Tang Jiusheng and Shui Ruyue looked at each other, and Tang Jiusheng said in confusion: "Before this, your husband has never come back? After someone from Jiangdong Palace has found your husband, has your husband not come home again?"

Xu said in tears: "Prince, if my husband comes back, I don't have to worry so much! I went to the county government to report to the official, but the county government refused to accept it, saying that the prince's mansion and they couldn't control it. I went to the Yanzhou county magistrate's magistrate to report to the official, but the county government magistrate Xiang Yuanjie refused to accept it and asked me to go to the Jiangdong prince's mansion to solve it. I pity me, a weak woman, my mother's family is far away, and my husband's family is a single family for three generations, and there is no brother-in-law to take care of it!"

Tang Jiusheng picked up the tea bowl and took a sip. The coarse tea was very bitter. Tang Jiusheng put down the tea bowl and asked again: "I heard you have a young son?"

Xu replied: "When the prince said, the young lady does have a son, who is ten years old this year, named Sun Jiadong, who studies at home. My husband is a small staff member in the Jiangdong Palace and does not earn much money every month. Therefore, I also grow some land, spin some cloth, raise a few chickens at home, and subsidize my life. My son is sensible. He doesn't go out to cause trouble and only studies at home. But who would have thought that my husband would disappear like this?"

Tang Jiusheng almost spit out a mouthful of tea and said with a smile: "I have a kid named Sun Jiangdong, but his name is somewhat similar to your son! But he is now in Huzhou Prefecture. Since you said you can't find your husband, what will happen to the Jiangdong Prefecture later? The people in the royal palace said that your husband abducted the Jiangdong Prince's concubine and ran away. How could they give up on things like this? Didn't they come to bully your family?"

Xu replied: "Prince, the people from the Jiangdong Palace come to harass each other every now and then. Every time I make a fuss, I go to the county yamen and the county yamen to report to the officials. But the local government only dares to send yamen runners to watch from a distance and dare not take care of it. I have no choice but to complain to the yamen, and the Jiangdong Palace is too urgent. The little woman had thought of going to Beijing to control the capital, but the journey to Yong'an is long and my children are young, so it is really difficult to travel. It just happened that I heard that the prince passed by Yanzhou today, so I plucked up the courage to go and file a lawsuit against the King of Jiangdong in front of the prince!"
