Shizhao, Hebei, Yecheng.

Due to the tragic death of his beloved son, Shi Hu, a sick tiger, finally became angry. Under Shi Hu's strict orders, Shi Hu's pro-army Long Xiang directly surrounded the entire Yecheng. Except for the east gate, all the gates were closed. The east gate is also only allowed to enter, not to exit. With the government not allocating food relief, it is clear that tens of thousands of civilians stranded in the city will face the threat of food shortages. If the lockdown had been extended, many of these people would have starved to death. As for what kind of robbery to play! Destruction! Rebellion! Something like that. Just kidding, this is a lair of super perverted murderers. Believe it or not, Shi Hu directly sent a large army to suppress the massacre in minutes. The number of Zhao people (Han Chinese) who died at his hands has already exceeded one million, and these tens of thousands of Zhao people are just a drizzle for him. Shi Hu is an underrated tyrant, and he is no less ferocious than the King of Xuan (the kind we usually think of). )

Under Shi Hu's order, Shi Zhao's Criminal Department, Tingwei, Yecheng Ling and other criminal investigation departments began to unite to investigate. However, not all the people who tried the case were called Di Renjie. These people are obviously not very good at investigating cases. Due to the relatively few clues, these people's methods are relatively simple and rude, and they directly ask the whole city. It is to close the city gates, and search one after another. And the quality of the personnel involved in this search is not bad! This purposeless search eventually turned into direct burglary rape and burglary in broad daylight. It has become a variety of unjust, false and wrongful cases. It has become a tool for extortion and profit-seeking by officials at all levels. This large-scale manhunt and arrest operation has turned the entire Yecheng into a miasma, and everyone is in danger. Of course, this is only limited to Zhao people with no background and ordinary Hu people. As for the people of the nation and the dignitaries. Give them ten dares, and they won't dare to do it. Those people cut them like chickens, and no one dared to retaliate.

……

Shi Zhao, Yecheng, East Palace.

"Hahaha! Shi Tao's thief is finally dead, Lone is so happy, so happy! Shi Xuan, the crown prince in a certain hall, laughed barefoot, cloaked in a cloak.

In the early hours of this morning, Zhao Sheng came with news that his nemesis Shi Tao had been assassinated by Yang Bi and Mu Cheng. At first, he was a little unconvinced, after all, Shi Tao had been against him for more than ten years, which was quite difficult, and now he was killed by the assassins so easily. He couldn't accept it for a while.

Just now, the attendants of the East Palace, who went to the Duke of Qin's Mansion to investigate, came back and reported: The Duke of Qin's Mansion has been dressed in white cloth and plain clothes, and the crying is all over the sky. He finally believed it, and now he was dancing and celebrating.

After a while, I don't know if it was because he was tired, Shi Xuan sat back on the bed. picked up a pot of wine held by Gong E next to him and poured it directly. After wiping the remaining wine from his mouth with his sleeve slightly, he said very happily to Zhao Sheng on the side:

"This time thanks to Zhao Gong. Lone can get rid of this great enemy, and Zhao Gong should be the first to take credit. ”

"Don't dare to be, this is the duty of a minister!" Zhao Sheng said calmly.

"Zhao Gong, you are humble again. You Zhao people just like such mothers-in-law and mothers. It's yours, it's you. What does Humility do? It's not as refreshing as our people at all! Shi Xuanhao said coolly.

"What Your Highness said is that the minister will change it in the future." Zhao Sheng still said calmly.

Shi Xuan did not continue to dwell on this issue. The great enemy had already been assassinated by him, and he was in a very good mood now.

"Your Highness, we can't take it lightly yet! If that person doesn't die, he will support your highness and your other brothers to fight against you. Once the matter of Shi Tao's assassination is leaked. With that person's character, it is obvious that he will not let me wait. Zhao Sheng analyzed.

Shi Xuan nodded slightly, but didn't say anything.

"Your Highness, don't forget, there are also Peng Cheng Gong and Yan Gong. Each of them has the strength to compete for the throne of heaven. In the past, it was Shi Tao who stood in their way. Now, although His Highness is not only a great enemy, but at the same time, he has also swept away the stumbling blocks for them. Once they got that person's help, their power would definitely not be much worse than the previous Shi Tao. ”

"Besides, Your Highness, you know it. The biggest suspicion of Shi Tao's assassination this time is us. The man must have begun to suspect me by now. Duke Peng Cheng has coveted the Heavenly Throne for a long time. Once they are in power, with or without evidence, they will desperately pour dirty water on us. If that person believes, we will never recover. In a head-to-head duel, with our current strength, we are far from being that person's opponent. Zhao Sheng continued to analyze.

After thinking carefully for a moment, Shi Xuan felt that what Zhao Sheng said was reasonable. As long as that old thing reigns for a day, he is at risk of being deposed. And that old thing has been a little mentally abnormal lately. In case one day when the old thing misses Shi Tao's dog mongrel, someone enters the rumor that Shi Tao was killed by him. In the old thing is now sometimes sober, sometimes confused. There's a real good chance he'll be deposed. Forget it, anyway, before, I had already planned to send him back to the West on the day the old thing attended Shi Tao's dog thief's funeral.

After figuring it out, Shi Xuan thanked Zhao Sheng and said, "Thank you Zhao Gong for your advice!" Lone knew what to do. ”

Zhao Sheng stroked his thick beard slightly, and looked a little relieved: "Your Highness doesn't have to be polite, this is the duty of a minister." The minister's body has long been branded with His Royal Highness. If something happens to His Royal Highness, the minister's family will not be happy. ”

"Zhao Gong is worthy of being a lonely henchman, not like that group of wastes. Only eat and drink cockfights! Shi Xuan seemed to remember something, and said very unhappily.

Shi Xuan also reacted at this time, the group of 'talents' he recruited was not as good as a Zhao Sheng who picked it up. Those 'virtuous people' who usually like to brag about how experienced they are, when it comes to use, they are all dumb. No matter how stupid Shi Xuan is, he knows that he has been deceived. Shi Xuan secretly swore in his heart: He must make those scammers pay.

"Your Highness, if there is nothing else, the minister will retreat first." Just when Shi Xuan was thinking about how to clean up that group of 'talents', Zhao Sheng spoke.

"You go down first!" Shi Xuan said casually.

"Retire!"

After Zhao Sheng saluted, he turned around and left.

"Zhao Gong wait!" Just as Zhao Sheng was about to walk out of the main hall, Shi Xuan called him again.

"What other orders does Your Highness have?" Zhao Sheng turned around and said respectfully.

"Lone heard that your eldest man ran away the day before yesterday." Shi Xuan said meaningfully.

"The family is unfortunate, let His Highness smile!" Zhao Sheng said with a smile.

"Do you need someone to help you get him back?" Shi Xuan said tentatively.

"No need, the minister still has Erlang and Sanlang to inherit the bloodline, just let that disobedient son die outside!" Zhao Sheng said coldly with a calm face.

"Zhao Gong, Lone knows that Sister Jean is usually a little rude! I hope you will be more tolerant. Shi Xuan patted Zhao Sheng's shoulder and comforted.

"Let my mother marry the minister who has been established in the second or seventh year, and give birth to Erlang and Sanlang to the minister. Is it too late for the ministers to love her? How can it be blamed? Zhao Sheng smiled.

"That's good! That's it! Zhao Gong go back and rest first! Shi preached.

"Retire!"

After Zhao Sheng saluted, he turned around and left slowly.

However, Shi Xuan did not leave immediately, and stood in place, not knowing what he was thinking. Just watched Zhao Sheng walk towards the palace gate step by step.

After a long time, when Zhao Sheng completely disappeared, Shi Xuancai muttered, "Could it be that Lone is suspicious of being wrong?" Zhao Sheng shouldn't be such a cold-blooded person, but forget it, he and his clan are here anyway! ”

……

Zhao Sheng slowly walked to the palace gate step by step. When he came to the palace gate, there were obviously a lot more guards here than when he had just entered the palace.

Zhao Sheng was a little puzzled, and asked the captain guarding the gate on the side, "What's going on?" How could the vigilance suddenly be strengthened! ”

Zhao Sheng is the prince's confidant. About this, the people of the entire East Palace know. Of course, the captain in front of him was also included, and he didn't dare to offend Zhao Sheng, the popular man next to the prince. The lieutenant replied respectfully: "Back to Duke Zhao, Your Highness has been assassinated in view of Duke Qin. We are asked to strengthen our vigilance, and no one is allowed to enter or leave at will without a warrant from His Highness in the past few days. ”

After Zhao Sheng heard this, he didn't say anything, and left slowly.

With the help of his loyal servant and uncle, he boarded the carriage. Then he slowly marched towards the Zhao Mansion.

After a while, Zhao Sheng in the car whispered to himself:

"It seems that Shi Xuan is not as unbearable as the old man imagined, and the hiding is quite good!"

"Shi Hu is really in danger this time! But now, this brutal mad tiger can't die. ”

"To be honest, the old man really doesn't want to save this mad tiger. But now only this mad tiger can help the old man avenge it. At the same time, this is also for Heng'er's future, and the old man can only do this. Forget it, he's already sick like this anyway, and he probably won't live long. ”

After a while, wait until a junction. Zhao Sheng knocked on the carriageway: "Stop!" Ah Zhong come here! ”

"Master, what's wrong?" Uncle Zhong trotted over and said.

"The old man remembered it, the old man's Yaoqin is broken, you can go to Li Ji Qin Store later and help the old man buy a new one." Zhao Sheng said calmly.

"Okay, master! The old slave went to buy it. Uncle Zhong replied immediately.

"Wait! You have this piece of jade with you! The proprietor of Li Kee Piano Store is an old acquaintance, and he will help you choose the best one. Zhao Sheng blinked and said. After finishing speaking, he took out a piece of jade recipe that he carried with him and handed it to Uncle Zhong.

Uncle Zhong understood and left with the two little guys with the jade recipe.

After Uncle Zhong left, the carriage also continued to drive towards Zhao's mansion. And a group of people not far from the carriage suddenly became two groups.
