Prince Xiang's Mansion in Yancheng is located in Yong'an Square, which is in the same square as the courtyard where Song Ye lived.

After Song Ye finished answering questions at the Yamen this morning, Zhao Zhigao came over to remind Song Ye,

"After being released from office for the past two days, when you go home, don't go to the area of ​​Prince Xiang's Mansion. It's very sensitive there now. There are many Ziyu guards guarding it. I don't know what happened in the Prince's Mansion!"

Song Ye was not very interested in the so-called Prince Xiang. He and Song Zhao Zhigao said, "After being released from office, I usually find a good place to go fishing. I have not been to the area of ​​Prince Xiang's Mansion recently."

"However, Brother Zhao, as the head of the police team of the prefect's Yamen, you are also the number one person in Yancheng. Even you don't know what is happening in the palace?"

Zhao Zhigao said, "I have heard a lot of gossip, but I don't know whether it is true or not. Now there are rumors outside that Prince Xiang and his party entered the city in the dark one night a few days ago,"

"In the past few days, many cultivators have been brought into Prince Xiang's Mansion, so many people believe that Prince Xiang's mysterious daughter must have contracted some unglamorous and strange disease, so she was so secretive. Don’t dare to be known.”

Song Ye said, "No matter what happens in the palace, it has nothing to do with us. Well, it's time for me to patrol the streets. After I leave the office today, let's find a good place to have a drink and chat!"

After saying that, Song Ye took Song Yan out to patrol the streets. As a police officer, Zhao Zhigao usually had nothing to do. When he did not need to "go out to the police", he spent most of his time in the government office.

But not long after Song Ye left the Yamen, a Ziyu guard suddenly appeared at the door of the Yamen, and the atmosphere in the Yamen suddenly became extremely tense.

Soon, the prefect Wang Demao, his fellow prefects, the magistrate and others came after hearing the news and went to the door to greet the Ziyu guard.

Wang Demao said to Zi Yuwei very respectfully, "I wonder what the important matter is for Mr. Zi Yuwei to come to this house?"

The Ziyu guard said coldly, "Pass on the order from King Xiang and ask all of you, the prefect, to go to Prince Xiang's Mansion!"

"It turns out that Prince Xiang has already arrived at the mansion, so the magistrate must pay him a visit in person!" Wang Demao said,

The Ziyu guard didn't say anything else, and left after passing the order.

Wang Demao then said to the two officials beside him, Tongzhi and Tongpan, "Two colleagues, let's go to Prince Xiang's Mansion right now!"

At this time, Zhao Zhigao on the side said, "Master Magistrate, do you want me to follow you?"

Wang Demao shook his head and said, "The place we are going to is Prince Xiang's Mansion, and this is the first time that Prince Xiang's new mansion has opened to welcome guests. In addition to us, all the dignitaries in the city will be invited. How can this kind of occasion be suitable for a rough guy like you!" "

"But didn't that Zi Yuwei just invite all of us in the Yamen to go with him?" Zhao Zhigao asked doubtfully,

"Hahaha!" The general judge on the side laughed, "Captain Zhao, that's just his polite words. Our yamen has three groups of yamen, and there are so many of them. How can we even see the guards who watch the prison and those who patrol the streets outside? Will the Yamen take him to Prince Xiang's Mansion too?"

Zhao Zhigao said with a sneer, "Master Tongpan is right!"

But at this time, Wang Demao said to Zhao Zhigao, "However, you are now the head catcher of our yamen. It doesn't hurt to take you to such an occasion. But remember, after you go there, don't talk nonsense or look around. Don’t act like you’ve never seen the world before!”

Zhao Zhigao nodded and said, "Don't worry, Lord Magistrate, in a place like Prince Xiang's Mansion, how dare I, a small catcher, dare to talk nonsense!"

Therefore, Wang Demao took four people, including the Tongzhi, Tongpan and a police officer from the mansion, to Prince Xiang's Mansion.

As Wang Demao expected, the hall of Prince Xiang's Mansion was filled with dignitaries from all walks of life in the city. In addition to the wealthy gentry, there were also people who commanded the envoys. People from the Murong family and the Huangfu family also came.

Murong Jingtian and Huangfu Xiaoyun also dressed up carefully, because they knew that they might be lucky enough to see the true appearance of Prince Xiang's daughter today.

In order to leave a deep first impression on the princess, they naturally made full preparations.

In fact, it was not only the two of them who were secretly competing with each other, there were also many wealthy children present who wanted to win the favor of the princess and become Prince Xiang's son-in-law.

But Prince Xiang and the princess never showed up.

I don’t know how much time passed before King Xiang walked out of the inner room into the hall. A tall woman followed beside him.

And this tall woman is not his daughter, because she is also wearing a Ziyu robe. Her identity is Qi Shuyi, the second-star Ziyu guard of Dayu Temple.

Prince Xiang's expression was a little cold, and he said coldly to everyone present, "I have been feeling a little unwell recently. I am very sorry for keeping you waiting for so long!"

At this time, the guests at the scene realized that it was not the princess who was sick, but Prince Xiang. The cultivator who had sneaked in and out of Prince Xiang's mansion in the past few days was probably to heal Prince Xiang's body.

But since he has to invite a cultivator to see a doctor, then the illness that Prince Xiang has is probably not an ordinary disease.

So the guests present expressed their concern for King Xiang's health, and even wanted to introduce a familiar cultivation doctor to King Xiang to treat him.

But King Xiang said to them, "Thank you for your kindness. My health is almost healed. I just need to rest for a few more days. Cough...cough!"

As he said that, he suddenly started coughing. After coughing for a while, he said, "I'm very sorry. I'm ill. I'm sorry to have you with me!"

After saying that, he walked into the inner room again,

Many people present wanted to take a look at King Xiang's mysterious daughter, but King Xiang's daughter never showed up. They couldn't help but feel a little disappointed.

There have long been rumors that King Xiang planned to find a good match for his daughter in Yancheng.

Today, almost all the unmarried wealthy children in the city gathered in the hall of Prince Xiang's Mansion, but Prince Xiang walked back to the back room in such a hurry. Could it be that among the many wealthy children present, none of them were attracted by Prince Xiang? of?

At this time, the second-star Ziyu Guard Qi Shuyi suddenly said to the people present, "Who is Song Ye!"

Song Ye? !

Zhao Zhigao's eyes suddenly widened. Is she calling "Song Ye"? Zhao Zhigao has a brother named Song Ye. He is currently patrolling the streets in Dongshi.

But because Wang Demao had told him not to talk nonsense before, he was afraid that he had heard wrongly, so for a while, he did not reply to Qi Shuyi's words.

At this time, a young man from a wealthy family stood up in the crowd and said, "That's it!"

The difference in intonation between "ye" and "ye" is not very big.

Seeing that no one else came forward, Song Ye thought that it was his name that Qi Shuyi called, so he stood up.

Qi Shuyi pointed at Song Ye and said, "You stay, the others can go back!"
