Chapter 57: Dead
Zhai Yeqi's gaze swept over the guards who followed behind the consul, and sneered, "Now that anyone who wants to enter this prison can enter, a good prisoner has an accident under your noses, and you are really not an ordinary dereliction of duty." ”
The consul was told by Zhai Yeqian that cold sweat broke out on his forehead, and God knows how collapsed he was when he saw his subordinates lying on the ground in a daze just now.
But this matter was also known by Zhai Yeqi!
Who is Zhai Yeqi? The general of the Royal Forest Army, from the way he manages the Royal Forest Army, it can be seen that he can't tolerate sand in his eyes, and he can't tolerate his subordinates to be so lax. Something like this today would certainly not happen to them in the Imperial Guards.
The consul immediately made a bitter face, and said cautiously: "Lord Zhai's matter is a dereliction of duty by the lower officials, so that the thieves have a chance to take advantage of it, but the lower officials promise not to do it again, can you ask Lord Zhai to give the lower officials a chance, don't inform the emperor of this matter?" ”
Zhai Yeqian is the closest person to the emperor, if he said this in front of the emperor, the emperor will not cure him for a crime of dereliction of duty!
When the consul thought of that picture, he couldn't help but shudder, and looked at Zhai Yeqian with anticipation.
He couldn't tell what Zhai Yeqian thought in his heart, and he could only hope that Zhai Yeqian was not a person who didn't eat oil and salt.
"People are already dead in your prison, and it is useless to talk about them." Seeing that Zhai Yeqian was relieved, the consul breathed a sigh of relief, and then understood what Zhai Yeqian had just said, and couldn't help but be stunned.
Zhao Yan is dead?
He thought Zhao Yan had just fainted!
This Zhao Yan is the person who the Ten Princes specially instructed him to take good care of, and he suddenly died under his care, how should he explain to the Ten Princes!
The consul's face turned white immediately, "This...... How could Zhao Yan die? ”
couldn't help muttering, and then found that Zhai Yeqian was looking at him, put back the look of complaint on his face, and said cautiously: "Lord Zhai, did you see who killed Zhao Yan?" ”
Knowing who killed Zhao Yan, the Ten Princes asked again, and he would be able to explain.
"The arrow in the chest was done by someone from the outside, and I didn't see it."
The consul immediately made a bitter face, and felt that he was out of luck.
was worried about how to deal with the Ten Princes, and the consul was not in the mood to deal with Zhai Yeqian anymore, and after saying a few words, he let Zhai Yeqian leave.
When Zhai Yewan left, Du Yanwan was also taken away.
Du Yanwan was still thinking about what Zhao Yan didn't finish halfway through what she said just now, what did she want to be careful about?
I can't tell anything from the shape of my mouth.
Thinking like this, Du Yanwan didn't look at the road under his feet, and while walking, he suddenly hit a hard back, and his nose hurt.
"Oops!" couldn't help but cover his hurt nose, Du Yanwan's tears flowed out uncontrollably.
"What are you doing when you stop for a good walk?" She couldn't help but complain to Zhai Yeqian in a complaining tone.
Zhai Yeyan's gaze swept across the corners of Du Yanwan's wet eyes, landed on the nose she covered with her hand, and said coldly: "Obviously, you don't know how to see the road yourself." ”
As the two were talking, a person who looked like a guard walked up to Zhai Yeqi and bowed his hand to Zhai Yeqi, "General." ”
Zhai Yeqi's face instantly turned cold, "What's the matter?" ”
The man couldn't help but glance in the direction of Du Yanwan, and when he saw Zhai Yeqian looking at him coldly, he immediately withdrew his gaze, and said respectfully to Zhai Yewan: "The matter that the adult asked his subordinates to investigate is already a little eyebrow-raising, and the subordinates ask the adults to go over and take a look." ”
Hearing this, Zhai Yeyan suddenly had other emotions on his face, "I'll go after knowing for a while." ”
Du Yanwan on the side listened to the conversation between the two and was confused, and when she saw the man leaving, Du Yanwan couldn't help but pull the sleeves of the people next to her, "What did you talk about just now?" ”
The man hadn't gone far yet, and at this moment, after listening to Du Yanwan's words to ask Zhai Yeyan, he couldn't help but prick up his ears to listen, and even the pace of leaving slowed down a lot.
He was sent by the general to investigate other things these days, and he has not been in the capital, and after he came back, he heard from other brothers that the general had a different attitude towards a woman, and he didn't believe it at first, but now he believed it a little bit, and the general was indeed different from the woman just now.
In the past, where would a general let a woman be within three steps of him?
But the woman just now was not only very close to the general, but also intimate with the general's behavior.
And the general's attitude towards her is obviously different, a little more patient than usual, but the general himself doesn't seem to have noticed.
The man couldn't help but slowly hook his lips when he thought about it, and if this trend continued, it was estimated that it wouldn't be long before they would have a female master. It's a pity that the guy who stopped Feng didn't know about this yet, if he knew, he would probably be surprised to death!
When Shu Feng came back, he must have a good talk to Shu Feng, and the man thought and left briskly.
On the other side, Zhai Yeqian glanced at the sleeve of his shirt that was pulled by Du Yanwan, and twisted his eyebrows invisibly, "It has nothing to do with you." ”
Du Yanwan couldn't help but purse her lips when she heard this, and found that her hand was still pulling Zhai Yeqi's sleeve, and immediately pulled her hand back, "Okay." ”
Since it has nothing to do with herself, then she doesn't ask.
"Lord Zhai is going to leave in a while? How about sending me back? ”
Before Zhai Yeqian refused, Du Yanwan looked at Zhai Yeqian pitifully, "I'm a weak woman walking alone in the middle of the night, what if I meet any bad guys?" ”
"Lord Zhai looks like the kind of upright gentleman, give the little girl a ride."
As he spoke, he winked at Zhai Yeqi, where was Zhai Yeqian still likely to refuse, and nodded, "Let's go." ”
Du Yanwan smiled and chased after Zhai Yeqi's figure, "Wait for me, Lord Zhai!" ”
Zhai Yeqian sent Du Yanwan back to the Shen Mansion, the door of the Shen family had been closed, and it was naturally impossible for Du Yanwan to enter through the main entrance, so she began to climb the wall.
Her movements of climbing the wall were a little clumsy, and Zhai Yeqian couldn't help frowning after watching it for a long time.
In the end, he didn't hold back, grabbed Du Yanwan's waist, and took Du Yanwan over the wall.
Du Yanwan was still humming and climbing the wall, but suddenly she was hugged by Zhai Yeqian to the other side of Qiang, the expression on her face was still a little stunned, and it was not until her feet hit the ground that she had a sense of reality.
"Thank you, Lord Zhai." Afraid of waking up the people in the Shen Mansion, Du Yanwan whispered in a low voice.
Zhai Yeqian nodded, didn't say anything, and disappeared in front of Du Yanwan in the blink of an eye.
Du Yan couldn't help but sigh when he saw him leave so soon: "This ancient light skill is really powerful, if only one day I could do this." ”
As she spoke, she suddenly met a pair of dark eyes, and she was suddenly frightened, "Big, big brother, scared me to death." ”
"Why are you here?"
Shen Yue looked at Du Yanwan faintly, looked her up and down, and was relieved to see that she was not injured, and then asked, "Where did you go?" ”
At first, she thought that her brother was as gentle as jade and a rare good brother, but as the time spent together continued to lengthen, she knew that this was just an appearance.
This guy has a dark heart!
Afraid of being caught by Shen Yue for a lesson, Du Yanwan rolled his eyes, and looked at him left and right: "No, I haven't gone anywhere, I just think the night is too beautiful, come out to enjoy the moon." ”
As he spoke, he looked up and found that there were dark clouds in the sky, where did the moon come from?
Shen Yue was about to laugh angrily at this little girl's clumsy lie, "Are you blind when you are the eldest brother?" I clearly saw Zhai Yeqi just now! ”
When he mentioned Zhai Yeqi, Shen Yue was not very happy in his heart, probably thinking about his sister who had been raised for so many years, and he put too much thought on him, and he was uncomfortable in his heart.
The next time I saw him, I had to teach him a good lesson, so that he could attract his sister who had been raised for many years.
"What's wrong with Lord Zhai, brother, you must have read it wrong!"
Du Yan started to play tricks at night, and after speaking, he was ready to slip away, "Brother, it's not early, rest early, good night!" ”
As he spoke, he ran away without a trace.
Shen Yue couldn't help but shake his head helplessly as he looked at the direction Du Yanwan left, and then his expression gradually turned cold, and he walked into the darkness alone.
"Master." One knelt respectfully in front of him.
Shen Yue's face was indifferent, and he gently glanced at the kneeling man on the ground and said, "Tell me everything that happened after the young lady went out today." ”
The man told everything Du Yan did after going out at night, and he didn't hide a word, including the contact with Zhai Yeqi.
As soon as he heard that Zhai Yeqian hugged his sister several times, Shen Yue's face was a little ugly, and finally he said with a cold face: "Very good, you will continue to stay by Miss's side in the future, and you can only show up when Miss is in danger." ”
"No."
The man answered, and the figure quickly disappeared into the darkness.
Shen Yue looked in the direction of Xiqingyuan, and his gaze gradually became deeper.
Sister, sister, I really don't want you to be involved in these things if I can, but don't be afraid, as long as I am there for a day, I will not allow anyone to hurt you!
Shen Yue thought, and his figure gradually disappeared into the night.
Zhenguo Mansion.
Zhai Yeqian just looked at what he had been pursuing, for the previous case, he had gradually figured out in his heart, and after thinking about what he was going to say to the emperor tomorrow, Zhai Yeqian wrote a letter and sent it to Zhiyun, who was far away, and asked people to prepare bath water, ready to rest after bathing.
Hot water was quickly served, and he stripped off his clothes and sat down in the tub.
The rising mist did not soften the coldness on his face, but instead added a different color to him, revealing two arms with strong muscles.
