Chapter 299 The Secret in the River

Hearing Fu Danggui's shout, Xiaofeng frowned, took off his saber and handed it to Huzi, "Good Huzi, help me look at the sword, I'll go down and save the prince!"

In fact, Xiaofeng didn't know why Chuhe fell into the water so easily due to his high martial arts skills, but he remembered the past few days of his master's dullness, his rage, and his restlessness, as if everything had a reason.

Xiaofeng jumped up and felt a fishy smell of river water rushing in from his nostrils. He held his breath and swam forward. When he reached the place where the Chu River fell into the water, he found that the Chu River was struggling.

He didn't care so much, hugged Chuhe's back and dragged him to the bank. Chuhe knew that Xiaofeng was here to save him, so he calmed down a lot at the moment, didn't struggle and move, just coughed.

Soon the two arrived at the bank of the Qing River, and Fu Danggui and Hu Zi also rushed to the bank, "Chuhe, are you alright?"

Panting heavily, Chu He sat on the bank of the river and cleaned the water plants on his feet. He took a black hairband from his ankle, and Chu He frowned, "I think you should check it out. Check to see if there are any dead bodies in the river."

Fu Danggui didn't understand what he meant, thinking that Chuhe was blaming him for pushing him down Qinghe, Fu Danggui looked at Chuhe apologetically, "I didn't push you down on purpose."

"I know, that's what I'm talking about." Chuhe held up the black hairband that didn't belong to him and showed it to Fu Danggui.

Fu Danggui frowned, looked at the headband with sharp eyes, and understood what Chuhe was talking about in his heart, "Huzi, go to the Jingzhao Yamen and let the Yamen servants who know the water find some frogmen to come here." .”

"Yes, master." Hu Zi clapped his hands in response, walked to Xiao Feng's side, and handed the saber he kept to Xiao Feng, "Brother Xiao Feng, your sword."

"Well, thank you, Huzi." When Xiaofeng took the saber wet all over, her hair was still dripping.

This time Chuhe was indeed heartbroken by Fu Danggui. He stood up coldly and said to Xiaofeng, "Xiaofeng, take me back to the palace."

"Then Master Fu..." Xiao Feng raised his hand to wipe the water droplets off his face, and said in a low voice.

This time Chuhe pretended not to hear Xiaofeng's words on purpose, and walked straight forward without looking back, so Xiaofeng had to shake his head at Fu Danggui and follow.

Fu Danggui was holding the hairband that Chuhe was still on the bank of the river in his hand, and he was in a daze secretly. He really went to visit Prime Minister Zuo with Bai Qingfeng quietly without even telling Hu Zi.

Because he felt that Prime Minister Zuo knew him and had something to do with what happened to his father back then, so he chose to investigate this matter silently.

He knew that the relationship between Chuhe and Prime Minister Zuo was not good, so he chose such a secret way to make friends with Prime Minister Zuo, but Prime Minister Zuo is also an old fox. These days, he is like an amiable old man, without revealing at all Ambition out of the mouth of the Chu River.

When Fu Danggui was wavering, Bai Qingfeng reminded Fu Danggui, "Lu Yao knows that horsepower can see people's hearts over time, so don't judge so quickly."

Once Chuhe left like this, he was completely angry with him. Originally, this was beneficial to Fu Danggui's plan, but why did his heart still hurt a little, like the pain of a needle and thread being pulled through, intermittently? , leading to tears, he could only hold back forcibly.

"Danggui, why are you here?" Fu Danggui stood motionless in a daze until a voice appeared behind him.

This voice was very familiar, Fu Danggui came back to his senses, turned around and saw Bai Qingfeng in white clothes standing on the street by the river, "Xiaobai, aren't you going to watch the scenery today? Why are you here?"

"I'm talking about this place, isn't Qinghe Maple Leaf very similar to when we first met?" Bai Qingfeng walked down the bluestone steps, Xiaoqing followed closely behind.

When Fu Danggui heard this, his mind was filled with images of memories, and the corner of his mouth curled up into a smile, "Yeah, when we first met, we were like maple leaves like fire."

"The scenery here is beautiful, but it's dangerous for you to be here alone, you know?" Bai Qingfeng looked at Fu Danggui seriously with a slightly concerned face.

Fu Danggui smiled but frowned again, and showed Bai Qingfeng the headband in his hand, "It seems strange here, we found this thing in the water."

"Hairband... a hairband." Bai Qingfeng also looked a bit uneasy, and his voice was low.

Xiaoqing glanced at the hairband, then sniffed it, she frowned, "I smell a breath of death."

"Do you think there are corpses in this river?" Bai Qingfeng immediately understood Fu Danggui's conjecture.

Fu Danggui nodded lightly, and touched the hair tie, "This hair tie is intact, it should not have been left behind by someone, just now Prince Chu must have seen something else when he fell into the water, so he asked me to check."

"It turned out that Prince Chu discovered it, but why did Prince Chu fall into the water for no reason?" When Bai Qingfeng heard about Chu River, he was obviously unnatural.

He sighed, and waved his hands in embarrassment, "We two had an argument, and I didn't intend to push him into the water."

"Is there nothing serious about Prince Chu?" Bai Qingfeng frowned and asked.

Fu Danggui smiled wryly, "There's nothing serious about your body, it's just...that's all."

"Let's go to the pavilion over there and wait while we chat." Bai Qingfeng saw that Fu Danggui's mood was not right, so he raised his finger and pointed to the pavilion in front of him, changing the subject.

The two chatted in the pavilion for a while, and then watched Huzi rush to the riverside with Liu Yunian, the yamen servant and the frogman.

"The subordinates are late." Liu Yunian panted, obviously they came running over in a hurry.

Fu Danggui waved his hand and said, "Let the frogman go down and search from there to see if there is any gain."

"Yes, Mr. Fu." Liu Yunian responded, and then arranged the search range of the yamen servants and frogmen. After watching those yamen servants and frogmen go into the water, he breathed a sigh of relief, "Master Fu, Lord Bai, I ask What the hell happened here?"

As soon as he finished speaking, the frogman who dived into the water floated on the surface holding a child's hand, "I found it! I found it!"

"I found it so quickly!" Fu Danggui frowned and got up, and hurriedly walked to the place where the frogman landed.

Bai Qingfeng followed closely behind, and Liu Yunian didn't dare to neglect, he said to Huzi while walking, "When you called us, you didn't say there was a dead body here."

"We didn't know that there was a corpse in the water before, but what Prince Chu saw when he fell into the water, we guessed that there was something strange in it." Huzi was also a little shocked that they found the corpse so quickly.
