When Xue Rengui, under the leadership of the eunuch, came to Li Zhi's study, he saw that in addition to him, there was another person in the study, as if the eunuch who was going to be the prisoner was complaining: "Your Majesty, it's not that the ministers are inactive, it's ...... His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is now ...... Alas, the renovation of the East Palace, His Royal Highness the Prince, drew drawings, so that the original repair costs were not enough, which made the minister very difficult. ”

The Shoji was in charge of the royal court buildings, the production of gold and jade jewelry, jade agate, etc., as well as the creation of silk and satin, as well as various royal utensils.

Over the years, with the rapid development of Taiyi City, the prison has touched a lot of skilled craftsmen from Taiyi City, and this leads to the fact that he owes His Royal Highness the Crown Prince one favor after another.

Now, His Majesty the Emperor has made him only responsible for repairing the Qiyun Hall of the Hebi Palace that was blown up in Luoyang Palace, and has not let him be responsible for repairing the bombed-out buildings in the East Palace, but he doesn't know how to know about this matter by His Royal Highness the Prince.

On the same day, he sent someone to send him the drawings for the repair of the East Palace, and after reading the drawings and the designated materials, the general supervisor almost fainted on the spot.

This is to repair the East Palace, this is clearly to let him tear down the East Palace and rebuild it, and the money given by His Majesty is only enough to repair the damaged Qiyun Palace in its original appearance.

After telling His Royal Highness the Crown Prince about such hardship, he didn't expect to be ridiculed by His Royal Highness the Prince: "If you come less, who doesn't know that you will be in prison are all gold, silver, jewelry, jade and agate, and it is said that you will have to cover your eyes when you enter the treasury of the prison, for fear of being blinded by those jewels." ”

In the face of such a trumped-up correction, it is difficult to argue with the prisoner, even if there is a large amount of jewelry and jadeite, but those are not money, and he does not dare to exchange it for money to help him repair the East Palace.

If you dare to help, after giving the order today, it is estimated that you will not be able to wait for tomorrow, and your head will fall to the ground a little exaggerated, but you will not be able to run away if you are imprisoned in Dali Temple.

Therefore, after pondering and meditating for several days, and most of his head was white, he finally mustered up the courage and asked His Majesty the Emperor to decide this matter.

As for the personal favors and private retaliation of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince in the future, alas...... Who let us be human ministers, in the face of His Royal Highness the Prince's eyes, we will repay it, bear it.

There are two eunuchs who will be the prisoners, both of whom are from the third grade, and the other eunuch is now in Wu Mei's Zhenguan Palace, and the eunuch who played to Li Zhi has the same expression, with a bitter face and a constipated expression.

Wu Mei was angry when she listened, unfilial son This is a lie to Your Majesty, listen to this meaning, if it weren't for His Majesty to put the Kong Ming lantern privately, wouldn't there be no such thing, since it was His Majesty who ordered someone to put the Kong Ming lantern to blow up part of the buildings of the East Palace and the Imperial Palace, then it should be borne by the general who is responsible for the construction of the palace.

Wang Lou, who was sent to find Li Hong, came back alone, and there was no figure behind him that was familiar to Wu Mei, looking at Wang Lou's expression, he didn't need to ask to know, it must be someone who ran out of the palace again, and Wang Lou pounced.

In the prison of the Criminal Department, Li Hongshi Shi Ran walked in, in the dark cell, the oil lamp looked like a ghost fire, but fortunately, the smell here is not a foul smell, although the ventilation conditions are a lot worse, but on the whole it is not bad.

What's more, this is a place dedicated to the detention of high-ranking officials, and the dryness and odorlessness are already the highest level of cell conditions, and no matter who is imprisoned here, there is nothing to say about the environment here.

On both sides of the narrow passage are independent wooden prison doors, and the walls formed by wooden stakes in the road give an unobstructed view of the scene in the cell, and the prison officer in charge of the prison diligently followed behind Li Hong, this is the supreme leader of the Criminal Department, and he is also the prince.

Speaking of which, the two of them were originally at the time of their prosperity, and they didn't want to be implicated because of this matter, so I am afraid that their future careers will come to naught.

But fortunately, because after His Royal Highness the Crown Prince was injured, the queen did not cut off their heads in anger, which was already extraordinarily gracious.

While leading the way for Li Hong, the prison man pondered in his heart what the fate of these two high-ranking officials would be after they were sent to prison.

Especially that Shangguan Yi, what a pity, it is said that his granddaughter Shangguan Wan'er is just seven years old, but she is already a well-known smart woman in Chang'an City, she can write poetry and paint, but she is the heart of Shangguan Yi, and now it seems that she is going to be separated by yin and yang.

The prison man quickly walked to the door of Shangguan Yi and Ren Yaxiang's cell, and opened the cell door without waiting for Li Hong to speak.

Shangguan Yi and Ren Yaxiang actually lived opposite the door, and they didn't hear any words from the two of them when they came this way, and when they heard the cell door being opened, they slowly opened their eyes, and when they saw His Royal Highness the Crown Prince standing at the door with a smile, they immediately stood up from the top of their sleep.

"The ministers and officials have seen His Royal Highness." The two of them stood up at the same time and saluted Li Hong.

"Isn't it good? I thought that the two of you would cry out in prison, but I didn't expect the two of you to be very calm and embarrassed. Li Hong looked at the clean and tidy clothes on the two of them, although they had been detained for many days, their appearances still looked neat and tidy.

"Your Royal Highness laughed, the minister is to blame, and he deserves to be imprisoned, no wonder the queen." Shangguan Yi said with a calm smile.

"What you said is true, it's just that Ren Yaxiang was implicated by you, and he had nothing to do with Ren Yaxiang, just because you gave His Majesty the Kong Ming Lantern privately, which caused such a big disaster." Li Hong said half-jokingly.

After finishing speaking, he waved his hand to the two of them, motioned for the two to come out, and said as he walked.

The prison man stood on the side, seeing that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince was about to release the two from prison, he was suddenly a little overwhelmed, and he didn't dare to stop him, so he had to follow him out with his head bored.

"What His Royal Highness said is very true, and Lord Shangguan has also said in the past few days, when His Majesty is gracious to the queen and lets us out, he will invite the ministers to go to Luoshui Flower Shop to drink wine and make amends." Ren Yaxiang's voice is still loud and powerful, not at all like a person who has just been released from prison.

"Actually, the minister is very guilty, the minister's day, the most sorry is Your Highness, if it weren't for the minister's own opinion, it would not have caused Your Highness to be so seriously injured, in other words, this is all the minister's guilt." Shangguan Yi was personable, elegant and gentle, and said with a deep tone of self-reproach.

"Yes, the minister and Lord Shangguan have been thinking about it in this prison for the past few days, if they can inform Your Majesty in advance that day, this may not be born, the minister and Lord Shangguan are ashamed of Your Highness, and please ask Your Highness to punish the ministers and Lord Shangguan." Ren Yaxiang followed Guan Yi and stood at the door of the prison with a smile, and said with a big salute.

Li Hong turned around and looked at the two of them, and said lightly: "What? I'm going to invite you personally, but can't you please either? Or do you need Your Majesty and the Queen to personally invite the two out of this cell? ”

"Your Highness, you have misunderstood, the minister and Lord Ren are deeply aware of the sin, let Your Highness, you be so seriously injured, think about it...... Alas...... I feel guilty. Shangguan Yi blamed himself and said sincerely.

Li Hong said indifferently: "Okay, if you really feel sorry for me, you should take care of the Chongwen Pavilion for me, and it is enough to repay me." As for Lord Ren, the military department can't do without you now, Xue Rengui and Quan Yi came back from Anxi and reported to Lord Shangshu of the military department, but they couldn't find anyone, did they let them come to the prison to find you? ”

The two looked at each other, and secretly discussed when they were in prison, if His Highness healed from his injuries, he would treat the two of them like this? Is it a crime or a death sentence is directly given?

The two thought about it, although they knew in their hearts that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince would repay him on the surface, but in fact he had always been a magnanimous person, but they did not expect that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince would personally release them from prison without any accountability.

At this time, when I heard Li Hong's words, I was immediately moved in my heart, because of their self-assertions, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince was so seriously injured, especially when he was put in prison by the imposing queen that day, and even thought about the psychological preparation for dying soon.

Now that they have been magnanimously released by His Royal Highness the Prince, even if their hearts are made of stone, they are also full of deep emotion at this time.

"Thank you, Your Highness, for not killing!" Shangguan Yi and Ren Yaxiang, according to the court's courtesy, knelt down and saluted.

"Hurry up, there are more people in the court who rely on the staff, not to mention that you can't be blamed for the events of that day, if you want to blame ......." Li Hong looked at the clear blue sky and pointed with his finger, and suddenly the three of them laughed.

After walking out of the gate of the prison of the Criminal Department, a carriage stopped on the side of the road, Bai Chun stood next to the carriage and waited, just now Li Hong asked her to follow in, this goblin said that he would not go in, even standing at the door was far away.

Li Hong was very curious, and asked for a long time, Bai Chuncai squeaked and said the reason, he was detained by Li Hong for two days, and he was scared, and vowed never to go in again.

Li Hong pursed his lips and disdainfully said that she was a cleanliness addict and blamed him less.

"You two go back by yourself, take a shower, whether you want to eat with your family, or you two inmates celebrate the rest of your life after the disaster, as you like, the carriage is mine, not for the two of you, walk back by yourself." Li Hong watched Ren Yaxiang follow Guan Yi and said easily.

"In this way, thank Your Highness, and send your Highness to you."

"No." Li Hong looked at the prison officer at the gate of the prison of the Criminal Department, and said with a smile: "Go to the waiter of the Criminal Department to issue a document yourself, if you don't want to go, then go to Shangshu Province to find me after tomorrow, and I will accompany you to go." ”

"The lower officials don't dare, the lower officials don't dare, the lower officials will go to the criminal department. Greetings, sir. "The prison man's face was panicked, just kidding, let you accompany me to open the release paper, then the Master Shangshu of the Criminal Department knows, and he can't directly put me in prison.

Looking at the carriage far away, and then looking at Shangguan Yi and Ren Yaxiang, who were walking side by side, talking and laughing, after saying hello to him, the prison man muttered: "It seems that after being imprisoned, it doesn't mean that the career is over, looking at Lord Shangguan and Lord Ren, how do you feel as if your career has just begun."
