Chapter 125: The prince is depressed

Compared with the lively and festive in Coolie Street and Yuwen Mansion, Zhaojing Wangfu is unusually quiet.

After sending those sailors to the sea, the emperor sent a task to Shen Tuwen to go to the Heqiu Enclosure, three hundred miles away, to prepare for the autumn festival in advance.

According to the customs of the Great Qin Kingdom, every year after the beginning of autumn and between the beginning of winter, the emperor must lead all the princes and ministers here to practice riding and hunting.

Instead, you have to have reliable people to come to the paddock first to prepare.

On this day, someone from the mansion came in and reported that Yuwen Zhengji had returned to the mansion safely.

And Prince Zhaojing was very depressed at this time, and before the people he sent out to search had returned, Yuwen Zhengji had already run back. And that's not the point, what about the one who disappeared with him?

Sang Jiechen was sent to Yuwen Mansion, and his task was to ask Qing Yuwen Zhengji Jiang Jiang's whereabouts now.

Ke Yuwen spread his hands and said that he couldn't help him, because he didn't know where Jiang Jiang lived.

Sang Jiechen naturally refused to stop, he didn't want to carry this black cauldron, if he didn't bring back any news, then the prince would definitely cut him with an eye knife, but the trouble was that he couldn't take Yuwen Zhengji with him.

Shen Tuwen was naturally annoyed, but he was helpless. Although Yuwen Zhengji is the richest man in Ling Tian, he has no official position, and he really can't come to the Heqiu enclosure casually.

So he had to wait patiently.

Who would have thought that a few days later, those sailors who were sent out returned the same way, and the only thing they brought back was the big sea turtle that was mounted by Yuwen Zhengji on the spot.

These people took a lot of effort to bring the big turtle to Shen Tuwen, and finally had an explanation.

"Lord Qiqi, my subordinates searched the sea for half a month, and found traces of people staying on a desert island. However, when the subordinates went to the island, they had already left, and only this turtle was found, and the shell was engraved with handwriting. ”

Shen Tuwen took a closer look, this turtle is the size of a copper basin, and there are traces of burns on the tail, and the turtle shell is engraved with ten big characters "Yuwen Zhengji's deputy island master's car".

"Yuwen Zhengji is only a deputy island master," Shen Tu said in his heart: "The little thing is quite good. ”

"Take this turtle down and treat it well," Shen Tuwen instructed, "Take care of it, don't lose it." ”

It was easy for the autumn to end, and Shen Tu Wen accompanied Wang to drive back to Ling Tiancheng.

"Lord Wang, you have been in the dust all the way, let the maids wait for you to bathe and rest!" Wu Niang, the housekeeper of the inner house, said with concern.

"Call me in first." Shen Tu commanded.

Sang Jiechen walked in slowly, not for anything else, but because he didn't want to return to Shen Tuwen's words, especially recently.

"You go and bring Yuwen Zhengji to the mansion for me," Shen Tuwen instructed Sang Jiechen: "Go immediately, don't delay." ”

"Yes." Sang Juechen replied stubbornly.

When he went out, he pouted, and hit his horse all the way to Yuwen Mansion.

The gatekeeper naturally knew that he was the personal entourage of Prince Zhaojing, so he hurriedly respectfully invited him in.

"The young master is eating," Yan Xi politely said to Sang Juechen, "Why don't you sit in the teahouse for a while?" ”

"No need, the prince is in a hurry, I'll take Yuwen Gongzi away," Sang Jiechen took a deep breath and said, "I don't know what Yuwen Gongzi is eating?" ”

The last time he came, he was just in time for Yuwen Zhengji to eat stinky tofu, but it was just a few words of kung fu Sang Jiechen had been smoked to the point of vomiting.

But looking at Yuwen Zhengji's appearance, he seems to be enjoying it. I really don't know when he had this hobby.

"My son-in-law has recently become obsessed with a food with a peculiar smell," Yan Xi said cautiously, "the same one he ate when you came last time." ”

Sang Juechen suddenly felt that the world was discolored, and his legs and stomach were a little tendoned.

But now that he has the king's order, he has to jump even if there is a dung pit and mud cave in front of him.

With the mood of seeing death as home, Sang Juechen strode into Yuwen Zhengji's room. A strong and domineering stench came to the face, almost to the point of tear-jerking.

"Guard Sang, do you have something to do with me?" Yuwen Zhengji sat at the table, drinking and eating stinky tofu, his eyes were blurred and his speech was slurred, as if he was already drunk.

"Prince Yuwen, the prince wants to see you. I bother you to enter the house immediately," Sang Jiechen had no choice but to take out a businesslike tone: "I'm offended!" ”

As he spoke, he ordered the two soldiers who accompanied him to set up Yuwen Zheng and leave the house.

Yuwen Zhengji entered the Zhaojing Mansion with the smell of wine and stinky tofu.

Shen Tu sat firmly on the chair, his eyes just swept Yuwen Zhengji lightly, and the other party couldn't help but tremble.

Yuwen Zhengji's skin was thick enough, but he still couldn't resist the glance of the killing god.

"What about her?" Shen Tu asked aloud.

"Who?" Yuwen Zhengji wanted to pretend to be crazy and sloppy with wine.

"If you don't wake up again, I'll have someone take you to the ice cellar to cool down!" Shen Tuwen knew that Yuwen Zhengji was most afraid of the cold.

"Ahh No, no, no! Lord, I'm already sober. Yuwen Zhengji hurriedly said: "If the prince wants to ask, just ask!" ”

"Where is the man who disappeared with you?" Shen Tu asked.

"She?" Yuwen Zhengji took a careful look at Shen Tuwen's expression, wanting to explore the reason why he asked Jiang Jiang, Yuwen Zhengji was not a fool, Jiang Jiang deliberately did not reveal her whereabouts, it should be that he wanted to hide something.

"I ask you, where did she go?" Shen Tuwen's tone couldn't help but become two more stern.

"I don't know," Yuwen Zhengji said, "I really don't know, I won't ask if she refuses to say." ”

"You trust her so much?" Shen Tuwen's eyes were full of scrutiny, which was extremely dangerous.

"Why is the prince's tone so sour?" Yuwen Zhengji muttered in his heart, for his own safety, he decided to continue pretending to be drunk: "Well, anyway, she has already got the bounty, so it has nothing to do with me." ”

"Do you know her name?" Yuwen asked again.

"She said her name is Jiang Jiang," Yuwen Zhengji replied truthfully, which was known to the maids and servants in his house, and there was no need for him to hide it: "As for whether it is her real name, I haven't investigated it deeply, after all, it doesn't matter to me what her name is." ”

"Did you two pretend to be beggars that night?" Shen Tu asked.

"That's right, it's just for fun." Yuwen Zheng didn't dare to hide it, because Shen Tuwen had already seen the two of them from a distance that night, and it was useless to deny it.

"Whose idea was to pretend to be a beggar?" Shen Tuwen seemed to be suppressing his anger.

"It's Jiang Jiang." Yuwen Zhengji also had to answer truthfully, because if he lied on such a simple question, he would die a miserable death.

Dare to fool Prince Zhaojing is a long life?

"Where are the two of you all these days of disappearance?" Yuwen Zhengji's voice became colder and colder.

"On the sea, ah, no, no, it's on a ship," because Yuwen Zhengji found that Shen Tuwen's face became more and more ugly as he answered: "You are exactly on a desert island." ”

Syllable! The teacup in Shen Tuwen's hand shattered.
