Chapter 68: No Grudges

Shen Ming nodded solemnly. "The prison director sent someone to say that there was a fire burning in the torture chamber in the southwest corner of the Tiger Binding Prison."

Hua Zijing was slightly stunned, if he was not mistaken, he was Zhao Qinxiu who was interrogated in one of the torture rooms in the southwest corner of the Tiger Binding Prison in the morning.

He had just walked on the front foot, and the back foot was on fire, and if there was nothing to do with it, he would never believe it.

At this moment, seeing Hua Zijing's expression was really strange, Li Jingrui's eyebrows unconsciously moved slightly, and a mockery appeared on the corners of his lips.

It's just that before his smile could condense, he noticed Shen Ming's gaze that seemed to float over, and his gaze immediately moved over and met Shen Ming's gaze.

Shen Ming didn't seem to expect Li Jingrui to be so alert, so he subconsciously moved his gaze away.

Subconsciously lowered his body and hesitated. "Your Highness."

"The prison director also sent someone to come, saying that the regent asked Zhu Mo to take the Zhao family's criminal daughter, and Zhao Qinxiu was taken out of the tiger prison."

Li Jingrui froze on his face when he smiled, and his straight back was slightly hooked.

"The fire in the Tiger Prison was ignited, was it before or after Zhao Qinxiu was brought out?"

Li Jingrui's voice was very soft, and it was like the most beautiful love words, but for some reason, as soon as it was poured into Shen Ming's ears, Shen Ming felt extremely harsh and full of oppression.

It's just that he was about to answer, but he only heard Hua Zijing exclaim in surprise, interrupting his next words.

"What?" Surprised, Hua Zijing's mind had already skipped a few thoughts, and his eyes fell on Li Jingrui's body.

I was already secretly speculating in my heart, what did Li Jingrui want to do when he sent Zhu Mo to tie up the tiger prison and raise people?

"Regent, do you want to explain to the main hall?"

Li Jingrui can be regarded as having grown up watching Hua Zijing, and at this moment, seeing Hua Zijing's surprised and uncertain look, he immediately knew in his heart that Hua Zijing was suspicious.

"The prison director said that this king sent Zhu Mo to go?" Li Jingrui's eyebrows raised slightly, although he didn't care what Hua Zijing thought in his heart, but he would never recognize this hat that was buttoned up plainly.

"What nonsense? Not to mention that Zhu Mo is now a substitute for sin, he is not, and he is not under the jurisdiction of this king, what does it have to do with this king? ”

After that, he didn't wait for Shen Ming to answer, sneered, directly crossed the tall Shen Ming, and set his eyes on King Dehuai, who had never spoken, meaning something.

"Regardless of Zhu Mo's external injury, King Dehuai should know best, Zhu Mo broke a rib by himself, not to mention, it took a hundred days to hurt his muscles and bones, and now it has only been too long? Can you walk on your own? Li Jingrui sneered, squinted his eyes and glanced at Shen Ming, although he did not say it explicitly, but the meaning was already fully expressed.

"Again." He paused deliberately, and a touch of dumbness appeared on his face at the right time. "This king and the Zhao Mansion have no grievances in the past, and there is no enmity in the near future, what do you want to mention?"

He tapped his fingers twice on the table and smiled self-deprecatingly. "Although the Zhao family's sinner girl had a good reputation in the past, when I heard that she was captured, someone accidentally ruined her beautiful appearance."

"This king has no grudge against the Zhao Mansion, and secondly, the sinner girl has no beauty for the king to covet, which makes the king very confused, what is the use of the king mentioning the sinner daughter of the Zhao family?"

Li Jingrui's words were euphemistic, but whether the Zhao family's sinner daughter was useful or not, that would be another matter.

Shen Ming opened his mouth dumbly for a long time before he spoke. "But the prison director said that Zhu Mo took the dragon's eye jade that represents the identity of the prince..."

It was only before he could speak that he saw Li Jingrui take out something from his sleeve, place it on the table, and caress the clear yellow and crystal longan jade lovingly. "This longan jade was hung by the princess when she married the king, and the king never left the bath."

Hua Zijing looked at Li Jingrui as if he had fallen into some memory, his eyes were cold, if it weren't for the fact that Li Jingrui and himself did it together, he was afraid that he would be like an outsider, and he would be deceived by Li Jingrui's gentle and humble and affectionate touch.

"Give Zhu Mo?" Li Jingrui sneered. "What a joke."

Seeing Hua Zijing looking at it carefully, Li Jingrui stretched out his hand and pushed the longan jade in front of Hua Zijing. "Your Highness, do you want to take a closer look?"

His words took a sharp turn and said meaningfully. "Your Highness, you have to think carefully, this longyan jade is a pair."

"As for Zhu Mo who went to the Tiger Binding Prison, who is it?" Li Jingrui sneered.

"There is nothing strange in the world."

Hua Zijing's face changed greatly, and he understood something.

Li Jingrui's eyes flashed slightly, and he actually stood up slowly, his eyebrows were still lightly dyed and gentle, but the dark color hidden under his eyes was faintly exposed, which made people feel creepy.

"Your Highness." Li Jingrui still had a modest and polite smile on his face, and Hua Zijing couldn't see what he was thinking now, so he had to raise his eyebrows slightly.

"This king suddenly remembered that there was something at home, so he took the first step this time."

Li Jingrui was obviously just worried about Hua Zijing's face, so he just greeted him like this.

He knew this himself, and Hua Zijing also knew it, so naturally he would not step forward to stop Li Jingrui, because he knew very well in his heart that even if he wanted to stop it, he couldn't stop it.

After that, Li Jingrui didn't wait for Hua Zijing to reply, raised his chin slightly at King Dehuai, took a look, brushed his sleeves and left, not caring about Hua Zijing's expression behind him.

King Dehuai had been watching the two of them suspicious of each other coldly, and at this moment, looking at the back of Li Jingrui leaving, he silently didn't know what he was thinking.

Hua Zijing's face unconsciously distorted for a moment, and Shen Ming, who was standing on the side, cautiously looked up and saw the young man's expression, and his heart couldn't help but sink slightly, and he saw Hua Zijing's gaze move to him.

Affirming his heart, he bowed and saluted. "What does Your Highness command?"

"What about Qian Qian?" Hua Zijing's voice seemed to be squeezed out a little bit between his lips and teeth.

He had tried his best to pull Zhu Mo off the horse and wanted to replace Captain Lu, but he was still restrained by Li Jingrui, and he had to compromise and leave the position vacant.

Fortunately, Qian Qian's stupid big man still used some of it, otherwise he always felt that the guards of the Imperial City were controlled by Li Jingrui's people, and he was very uneasy about him.

"Your Highness, you forgot, Qian You's general will take turns off today."

It's just that before he finished speaking, he received Hua Zijing's gloomy eyes, and stopped talking.

"Rotation?" Hua Zi was so angry that he couldn't even breathe steadily.

The position of the left general is still vacant, and Qian Qian chose to rest at this time?

Is it true that so many coincidences have accumulated in one place in this world? Thinking of this, Hua Zijing became suspicious, but now how could he think about it so much, he opened his mouth and gave an order in a deep voice.

"Send someone to find Qian Qian to the main hall, first send the imperial city guards to the direction of the Tiger Binding Prison, if the repeat offender in the Tiger Binding Prison escapes today."

A ruthless color appeared in Hua Zijing's eyes. "Let the prison master come and see you!"

Shen Ming was forced to take a step back by Hua Zijing's gaze, and he didn't dare to stay in this hall longer, so he bowed and saluted. "Yes."

When Shen Ming retreated, Hua Zijing was the only one left in this huge side hall.

As for King Dehuai, he did not know when he had entered the inner sanctum.

......

Led by the people in the front palace, Yun Zhen glanced at Huan'er beside her rather absentmindedly.

Huan'er seemed to be aware when he arrived, and talked to the palace maid on the side.

Huan'er looks round and cute, not very old but sweet-mouthed, and the palace maid on the side had said a few words of hello before, and at this moment, he saw that he was able to signal, and after a while, he talked to the palace maid on the side.

The one who can be on duty in this palace is somewhat clever, and while talking to Huan'er, a pair of eyes can't stop lingering on Yun Zhen.

"I don't know how my family's injuries are." Huan'er pouted, full of innocence and cuteness.

"You must know that the prince attaches great importance to my family's son, and if he knows that something happened to my family's son, he must not die in a hurry." Huan'er said and spoke, her steps deliberately slowed down, and she pulled the little palace maid aside and chatted a few words.

Yun Zhen seemed to have never noticed the whole process, quietly distracted, and walked hurriedly.

It's just that the palace cabinet occupies a wide area, and there is no transportation, so it will take some time.

It was the palace maid who led the way that knew that the county lord was anxious, and she only slightly accelerated her pace, after all, there were many etiquettes in the palace, if there was no inch, the county lord was fine, and they would be punished.

After a short time, Huan'er followed, taking advantage of the fact that the palace maid next to her didn't dare to get too close, and told Yun Zhen the news with a smile.

"The county lord, I heard that the prince was injured, and the regent and the prince rushed into the palace together, but for some reason, the regent had already left from the east gate a quarter of an hour ago."

Yun Zhen's eyes froze slightly, a quarter of an hour ago, it was the time when she entered the palace from the north gate by car.

And the Tiger Prison is the closest to the East Gate, and it goes without saying where Li Jingrui is going when he goes out from the East Gate.

"Have you ever asked, what is the prince's reaction?"

Huan'er hesitated for a moment before speaking. "His Royal Highness the Crown Prince sent someone to lead a captain, and the Praetorian Guards also went out from the east gate, and I don't know where they went."

Yun Zhen listened carefully, and after a long time, frowned. "What about Qian Qian?"

Huan'er pretended to look around unintentionally, pretending to be amazed on her face, her eyes were shining, as if she was enjoying the beautiful scenery along the way, but her mouth replied quickly. "I heard that General Qian is on a rotating day today, and he happens to be not in the palace."

The palace maid on the side was restrained by the palace rules, and when she squinted at Huan'er's unruly appearance, she felt panic and envy in her heart.

After all, everyone says that this imperial city is good, but how many people's youth are buried in these frames, and they have to live a life with a single look and shackles for life.

Yun Zhen noticed the strange eyes of the palace maids next to her, and couldn't help but glance at Huan'er.

She had seen a lot of etiquette before her death, and Huan'er's temperament was more vivid, so she never deliberately escorted Huan'er's nature on weekdays.

Fortunately, Huan'er also knew the convergence, and hung her head respectfully.

Today's incident happened suddenly, Yun Zhen entered the palace this time, firstly, to deliver a message to Qian Qian, so that he could delay a little bit, and it was also excellent to gain some time, and secondly, she wanted to pick herself up in it, after all, she and Yun Xiu's sister and brother have a deep relationship, which is well known to everyone.

If something happened to her younger brother, she didn't go to the palace to visit, wouldn't she slap her face?

According to Li Jingrui's suspicious nature, if there are no doubts in his heart, it would be really strange.

However, she never thought that Qian Qian would take turns off today.

The brightness of Yun Zhen's eyes was fleeting.
