Kyoto Imperial Palace, inside the Imperial Study.

Chu Boxiong slowly closed the two documents in front of him.

"Deng Yue actually escaped from prison." As he spoke, he pushed a document in front of him in front of Hou Sizheng.

Hou Sizheng didn't take the paperwork, he knew that this was an explanation for the person in front of him.

"The old slave feels that it is inevitable that this Deng Yue will escape from the prison."

Chu Boxiong looked at the old eunuch in front of him who had been with him for more than 30 years, and a smile gradually appeared on the corner of his mouth.

"How to say"

"This Deng Yue was the first fierce general of North Korea, when the North Korean emperor died mysteriously, the little emperor succeeded to the throne, and the queen mother's party took the opportunity to dictatorship, the first one was to use this means to arrest Deng Yue, but why it was just closed and not killed, it is unknown, I think there should be something at stake, and Deng Yue is the owner of Bai Fengtang, after Deng Yue was imprisoned in prison, Bai Fengtang, as the number one killer organization in North Korea, disappeared, and there are rumors in the rivers and lakes that this Bai Fengtang was also tragically poisoned by the North Korean Queen Mother's party."

Hou Sizheng paused, raised his eyes to look at Chu Boxiong's complexion, and found that there was nothing unusual, so he continued.

"Recently, North Korea's senior officials have been killed one after another, and it seems that his methods should be Bai Fengtang's doing, since Bai Fengtang has begun to make some moves, then Deng Yue's escape from the predicament should be understandable."

Chu Boxiong smiled faintly, with a hint of sternness in his eyes.

"I know a lot, I even know about the recent situation in North Korea, and it seems that you have heard a lot of things around me."

After Hou Sizheng heard Chu Boxiong's words, his heart tightened, knowing that he had said more, his face was like sauce, and he immediately knelt down.

"The old slave doesn't dare, the old slave just stays by His Majesty's side day and night, and his ears and eyes are a little touched, and those words just now are all the old slave's own speculation, the old slave should die, the old slave should die."

"Well, you are guilty, what are you guilty of," Chu Boxiong asked after glancing at Hou Sizheng, who was kneeling in front of him.

"The old slave is guilty of gibberish." Hearing Chu Boxiong's question, Hou Sizheng's face became even more ugly.

Chu Boxiong shook his head and said, "You didn't talk nonsense, so what is the crime." ”

"Old slave" Hou Sizheng was told by Chu Boxiong that he didn't know how to continue, although Chu Boxiong said that he was not guilty,

But Hou Sizheng knew that if he said that he was not guilty at this time according to Chu Boxiong's intentions, then the sin would be great.

The emperor said that you are not guilty, just try your attitude, if you feel that you are not guilty because the emperor said this, then there is a problem with your attitude, if you investigate it in the future, it will be enough for you to have a headache.

So, Hou Sizheng kept kneeling there, and kept saying that the old slave was guilty, and the old slave was guilty

Chu Boxiong smiled helplessly, and then said to Hou Sizheng, "Get up, get up, forgive you for your innocence." ”

Hou Sizheng stopped chattering at this time, and then said, "Thank you, Your Majesty." ”

"Send a copy of this document to King Liang's Mansion, and let them pay attention to it, and the North Korean envoy will come to Kyoto Mansion in a month, and don't let Deng Yue spoil things at that time."

"Yes, Your Majesty, the old slave will do it."

When Hou Sizheng was leaving, he happened to see someone coming to the door of the imperial study and was about to knock on the door to enter.

"Twelve, you're here." Hou Sizheng said respectfully.

The man was dressed in black and wore a black mask, if Hou Sizheng didn't know the identity of this person, he would definitely be caught as a rebel.

"Well, I've seen Grandpa Hou."

"Twelve are polite."

"I bothered Father-in-law Hou to help deliver a message, and said that the twelfth is coming."

"Well said, well said." Hou Sizheng agreed with a smile.

This person known as the Twelve is also an alternative in the palace, often dressed in black clothes and black robes, and wearing a black mask, always giving people a murderous and cold feeling, but the people who know this Twelve adults also know his temperament, but it is not like what he wears, but it is a little easy to get along with, so although he is dressed in an alternative, he is also good in the palace, especially with Hou Sizheng.

This Hou Sizheng was originally a human spirit, and he also knew the importance of this twelve adults by Chu Boxiong's side, so he also intended to make friends, and after coming and going, the two of them were also acquainted.

After a while, Hou Sizheng came out of the imperial study again, and then said to the twelve who were waiting outside the door, "Your Majesty is waiting for the twelve adults inside." ”

"Thank you, Grandpa Hou."

thanked Hou Sizheng and entered the imperial study.

"Your Majesty."

“

Why did you come so early, you finished what I asked you to do"

"Nope."

"Then what are you doing here?"

"Because I've met someone."

"Who" Chu Boxiong only raised his eyes to look at the twelve outside the table at this time.

"Qi Lianyu."

"Well, he's gone to the East Street Courtyard," Chu Boxiong frowned.

Regarding the fact that Qi Lianyu was in the Liang Palace, Chu Boxiong knew about it from the beginning, and it seemed that out of sympathy for Qijiazhuang, Chu Boxiong let the twelve secretly guard it. It's just that a few days ago, Twelve came over to tell him that Qi Lianyu had woken up, and Chu Boxiong asked Twelve to withdraw from Liang Wangfu.

And this time the twelfth went out to find something for Chu Boxiong in the courtyard of Lane 47 of East Street.

It's just that he just entered the courtyard of Dongjie, and he saw Xiaoliang Wang Chuci also coming over with Qi Lianyu, since the bloody case more than a month ago, it was taken back by the Urban Construction Division, originally twelve thought that no one would come again, but I didn't expect to meet Chu Ci and Qi Lianyu.

In order not to startle the snake, Twelve chose to give up the search, but returned to the palace to report to Chu Boxiong.

"At that time, the little prince was also there, and I was afraid of startling the snake, so I didn't continue to act."

Chu Boxiong nodded slightly, he was not afraid that Qi Lianyu would look for something in the other courtyard, after all, even he didn't know if that thing really existed, so it was even more impossible for Qi Lianyu to know that thing.

"It's okay, when the East Street stops, you can go again," Chu Boxiong didn't take it to heart, "Are Chu Ci and Qi Lianyu still in that courtyard now?"

Twelve paused slightly, and said, "I should have gone to Tianxianglou, before they entered the courtyard, I heard them mention Tianxianglou." ”

"Well, you go down, and don't forget what I commanded."

"Yes."

At this moment, there was a rush of footsteps outside the door of the imperial study, followed by a hurried knock.

"What's so in such a hurry," Chu Boxiong shouted.

Hou Sizheng's voice came from outside the door.

"Your Majesty, something happened in Tianxiang Building, the chief housekeeper of the Liang Palace, Yang Kang, was attacked in Tianxiang Building, and the whereabouts of Cai Yi, the director of the Supervision Department with him, are unknown."
