Three Years After Falling Off the Cliff

"Miss, do you want to go out?" Xia Yu saw Fu Yi swaying back and forth at the door several times, and couldn't help but asked: "Miss Lin and the others are waiting for you outside?"

"Good Xia Yu, you know me well." Fu Yi squatted beside the wall of Yun Mansion and looked up at Xia Yu pitifully: "If I don't watch the excitement of my enemies, I will definitely not be able to sleep tonight."

"Isn't it because you slept too much during the day?" Xia Yu covered her mouth and laughed secretly: "Madam just said that you can go out, but you must take this servant with you."
"Then what are we waiting for? Let's go." Fu Yi stood up, pulled Xia Yu out of the Yun family's gate, walked around the wall for a long time, and found Lin Xiaowu and others who were squatting in the corner waiting for her.

"Boss, you're finally here." Yang Erlang rubbed his numb legs and stood up with the help of the wall. "Just now I sent someone to inquire. The Jinwu Guard surrounded the Ning Palace this morning, but they didn't enter the main gate. Half an hour ago, the Ministry of Justice and the Dali Temple also sent people."

"We have to hurry. We can't miss such a big event." Cao Sanlang led everyone to the carriages. They sat in one carriage, and the two carriages following behind were filled with their servants and maids.

"Are we not going too far?" Lin Xiaowu lifted the curtain a little. Her family was related to Prince Ning. If the Ning Palace found out that she was watching the fun, it would hurt her relatives' reputation.

"Don't worry, Fatty Liu is also watching the fun." Fu Yi took out some dried meat from her purse and shared it with Lin Xiaowu: "With him here, no one will notice you."
Because Liu Xiaopang is indeed obviously fat.

"He is more informed than us?" Yang Erlang was surprised.
"I told him." Fu Yi smiled very gently: "Just watch the fun, it's more fun when there are more people."

Yang Erlang: “…”
"Fuyi, the assassin who assassinated you was really that dog of Prince Ning..." Cao Sanlang remembered that Lin Xiaowu was a relative of Prince Ning, and swallowed the word "dog" abruptly: "I heard that the Dali Temple, the Ministry of Justice, and the prince were all here last night?"

"He has something to do with it." Lin Xiaowu did not give his relative any face: "The man who assassinated Fu Yi used to work in Xiangkun Palace."

"What a piece of shit." Cao Sanlang's face looked very ugly. When Concubine Zeng just demoted Fu Yi's family to Chongzhou, she couldn't wait to find a suitable candidate for the princess for Prince Ning.

After the news that Fu Yi was assassinated and fell off a cliff reached the capital, they went to ask King Ning for help, hoping that he would arrange people to help find Fu Yi because of their past friendship. However, they didn't even get to meet King Ning.
They didn't dare tell Fu Yi about this for fear of disgusting her.

"There is a restaurant diagonally opposite the Ning Palace. It is opened by Princess Shun's family. Anying has already booked a room facing the street and is waiting for us. We can eat while watching the Ning Palace's excitement." Yang Erlang gritted his teeth. Tomorrow morning, he would let the entire capital know about the joke related to Ning Palace.

As soon as Fu Yi and his companions walked into the restaurant, they found that the hall downstairs was full of people, all of whom were leaning their heads to look towards Prince Ning's mansion.
After going up to the second floor, some of the servants guarding outside the box door seemed familiar. They were from the families of nobles, civil officials, and military generals.

"Fuyi, do you think that servant looks like the servant of Grand Tutor Du?" Lin Xiaowu pointed at a servant hiding in the corner.

Just at this moment the door of the box opened, and the eyes of Du Langjun, a famous talent in the capital, met with Fu Yi and others.
After a moment of awkward silence, Du Langjun quietly retreated into the box and closed the door with a stiff face.

Fu Yi: “…”
It seems that no matter how interesting it is to recite poems and compose essays on a daily basis, it is not as interesting as watching others have fun!

"This way, come quickly." Sui Anying walked out of a room and waved at them: "I deliberately reserved the room with the best view, waiting for you to come."

Fu Yi walked into the box and came to the window to look out. The people living next to Prince Ning’s Mansion were all royal relatives, and the ones hanging on the wall were... people?
My goodness, half of these court officials and nobles in East Street are just watching the fun?

The door to Prince Ning's mansion was tightly closed. The palace steward stood at the door and confronted the Jinwu Guards: "Please forgive me, my prince is your majesty's most beloved younger brother. Without your majesty's order, I cannot allow you to enter."

"The Dali Temple, the Ministry of Justice and the Jingzhao Prefecture jointly handled the case. According to the laws of our dynasty, there is no need for your Majesty's order. Moreover, your Majesty is worried about the safety of the prince, so he ordered the Jinwu Guards to protect the prince. Your Majesty has good intentions, why do you refuse?" The assistant minister of the Ministry of Justice frowned: "Or does the Ning Prince's Mansion want to let down your Majesty's love and care?"

"Please forgive me, my Lord. My Lord was injured last night. He had a high fever and fell into a coma after returning from Jingzhao Prefecture today. Please wait until my Lord wakes up before coming back." The housekeeper bowed repeatedly and said, "I am just a servant. I really don't dare to make the decision. Please don't embarrass me."

Fu Yi watched the confrontation with great interest. Not long after Prince Ning arrived at Jingzhao Prefecture in the morning, the prince ordered the Ning Palace to be surrounded. Now people from the Ministry of Justice, the Dali Temple, and Jingzhao Prefecture were all there. Even if the steward of the Ning Palace stopped them for a moment, what was the use?

He wants to delay time?

Fu Yi's gaze swept around Prince Ning's Mansion and finally fell on a clothing shop in the distance.

"An Ying, who owns that clothing store?" Fu Yi asked Anying.

"Clothing store?" Sui Anying stared at the clothing store Fu Yi pointed at and thought for a long time: "This store has been open for almost two years, and the business has not been very good. I wonder who opened it."

Most of the people living in East Street are princes and nobles. Their clothes are made by special people. Even if they want to have their clothes custom-made outside, they cannot choose a ready-made clothing store.
What serious businessman would open an unprofitable shop on East Street where every inch of land is valuable?

"It's rare to see a clothing store on East Street, let's go take a look." Fu Yi stood up: "Come on, let's go together."

"Ah?" Yang Erlang, who was chewing on a snack, said blankly, "It's almost dark, and we're going to visit a clothing store?"

"Maybe there's a surprise?" Fu Yi lifted her skirt and ran downstairs quickly.

Fatty Liu was stunned for a long while when he saw Fu Yi running past him: "We at least knew to hide in the restaurant to maintain some superficial friendship while watching the fun. Is she planning to squat at the gate of Prince Ning's mansion?"

How dare you be more arrogant than him?
He will never allow it!
"Whatever Yun Fuyi dares to do, I dare to do too. Let's follow her and see what she is going to do."

"Princess, the eunuch in the prince's courtyard said that the prince has not woken up yet." The maid helped Princess Ning to dress up and asked worriedly, "Will it anger the prince if you let the Jinwu Guards in now?"
Princess Ning stood up and raised her chin slightly: "Your Highness is unconscious, so I am the one who should be in charge of the palace now. Pass on my order to open the middle gate to welcome all the adults and the Jinwu Guards into the palace to investigate the case." "Your Highness, there is news from the princess's courtyard. The princess wants to open the door to welcome the Jinwu Guards into the palace." The eunuch stood beside the bed curtain with his head bowed. The room was filled with a bitter smell of medicine, and the incense burner in the corner was burning with wisps of green smoke.

Prince Ning sat on the bed, looking a little pale: "Arrange those people in the mansion to go out through the secret passage under the cover of night, and never let the Jinwu Guards find out."

"Yes." The eunuch retreated hurriedly, not daring to delay for even a moment.
Fortunately, it is now dark and no one will notice me if I leave through the secret passage.

No one noticed that just as the gate of Prince Ning's Mansion opened, three inconspicuous men and women jumped into an abandoned dry well in the backyard of Prince Ning's Mansion.

“Ahem, ahem, how many rats died in this secret passage? It’s so dirty and smelly.” The man walking in front waved his arms and pushed aside the spider webs. “When I get out, I will definitely teach those who oppose the prince a lesson.”

"Don't talk nonsense!" The woman behind him kicked him and said, "After we leave the capital, we should stay in the suburbs of the capital for a while and don't cause trouble for the prince."

The thin man following behind them took out a tinder from his waist and was about to light it when he was slapped by the woman: "Idiot, you are holding a tinder in the middle of the night, are you afraid that we won't be discovered when we leave the secret passage?"
The thin man covered his face and dared not speak. The man leading the way in front stopped and said, "Don't make any noise. Get ready to go out."

He carefully pushed aside the stone slab above his head, looked around, and after making sure that no one was around, he pulled the two people behind him out: "Hurry up."

"What are you doing, hide and seek?"

The three of them froze, staring blankly at the woman who suddenly appeared on the wall. She was lying on the wall, tilting her head and looking at them with a smile, as if she was very curious about their behavior.

"Brother." The thin man swallowed his saliva, cold sweat oozing from his back: "What should I do?"

The leading man gritted his teeth and pulled out the dagger hidden in his boots: "Only the dead can't speak."

"Wow, he has a knife in his hand." Another head popped up on the wall.

"Where, who has a knife?" Soon the third head, the fourth head, the fifth head appeared on the wall...

A long line of people suddenly appeared on the wall, all of them were playboys and their servants who came to watch the fun.
The three of them felt as if they had become monkeys in a theater, being pointed at and criticized at will.

"Xiao Wu, their eyes are so scary, are they trying to kill us?" Fu Yi crossed her arms and said, "I'm so scared."

"You are useless." Fatty Liu climbed up the wall panting and snorted at Fu Yi, showing his bravery and fearlessness: "Wang Yanhe, release the dogs!"

Upon hearing that Prince Ning was in a coma and that his mansion refused to open its doors, Sui Tingheng took the Emperor's handwritten edict from the Imperial Study and rode directly out of the palace to Prince Ning's mansion.

As soon as he dismounted from his horse at Prince Ning's Mansion, he heard a woman's scream in the distance.

"There's a thief in the clothing store!"

This sound is...
Sui Tingheng jumped on his horse, whipped it and galloped towards the direction where the sound came from.

"Your Highness!" Seeing this, the guards and ministers who went out to greet the prince hurriedly followed.

Sui Tingheng rushed to the clothing store, jumped off the galloping horse, and kicked open the wooden door of the backyard...

"Liu Xiaopang, hold him down and don't move!"
"Bring the scarf over here and wrap it around her twice more to prevent her from running away."
"Ahhh, Yun Fuyi, you don't have eyes, you stepped on my foot!"
"This skinny guy wants to run away, Dahei, hurry up and bite his butt!"
"Wang Wang Wang!"
"what!"

Howling, barking of dogs, and wailing were heard one after another, and the playboys and servants were huddled together.

Hearing the door being kicked open, everyone turned their heads and saw that the person coming was Sui Tingheng. The courtyard was dead silent.

Mo Wen, who rushed over following Sui Tingheng, saw the scene in the courtyard and didn't know how to start for a long time.

The girl from the Yun family was holding the shawl tightly in her hand. There was a gray thing tied to the other end of the shawl. Maybe... it was a person?
Prince Liu's fat body pressed on this man, and was stronger than a stone pillar.

A thin man curled up on the ground screaming, with blood all over his buttocks. A black vicious dog bit his legs to prevent him from escaping.

The only better one was the woman dressed as a peasant, but she was tied up tightly all over and her black hair was tied to a pillar, which made my scalp hurt just by looking at her.

"My dear gentlemen, ladies..." The assistant minister of the Ministry of Justice took a long while to find his voice again, and turned his eyes away from the miserable state of the three people: "Exercise?"

The three people who had been tortured just after escaping from Prince Ning's Mansion glared angrily at the Vice Minister of the Ministry of Justice.
Open your eyes and take a closer look. Is this leg of his for exercise? !
