Chapter 414: The position of Admiral of the Nine Gates, it's time to change
Du Wei opened her eyes and saw Feng Duhan sitting on the edge of the bed close by, staring at her intently.
In the candlelight, his side face looked a little gloomy and tired, but his back was straight, like a strong pine and cypress growing on a cliff, proud and heroic.
Du Wei blinked, sobering up from the haze, "You're back......" she muttered, her voice lazy and coquettish.
"Why do you sit here and fall asleep?" I wanted to appease her well, but what he said was blame, and even he couldn't figure out what was going on with this mood.
He remembered the "kiss" when he first encountered the poison on the street, the despair in his heart when he heard the news of Shi Niang's death by jumping into the river, the despair she traveled thousands of miles to the Tiger Prison Pass to detoxify him, and the fact that she almost died in the military camp to block the prince's arrow......
She has always been her own lucky star.
"The prince didn't embarrass you, did he?" She reached out and smoothed out the wrinkles left by his galloping uniform.
"He didn't get a chance." He said coldly, holding her soft with his backhand.
"Did the emperor say anything...... Can you hold up your body, do you want to take a rest first? Listening to her ask a series of questions, he couldn't help but feel a faint joy in his heart.
Something happened in the house, and she finally waited for him to come back, but all she asked was about him, as if everything that happened in the house was inconsequential and not worth mentioning.
Her gaze looks farther away, so she has nothing to fear.
"It's fine." He pretended to be calm and said, "You go to sleep first, I still have to go to the front to deal with some things." ”
Having said that, he sat and didn't move, not because he didn't want to get up, but because his body was like someone had drained his strength, and he didn't even have the strength to stand up.
"I'll leave when you're asleep." He said softly.
"Don't!" Du Wei pursed her lips and stretched out her other hand to pull him towards her, "I want you to accompany me......" She easily pressed him down on the bed.
Feng Duhan fell face down on the bed, still holding her little hand, her fingertips slightly cold.
She doesn't need to say a word, she always guesses the key to the matter.
"It's okay to take a break." She whispered in his ear, "I'll wake you up then." ”
He buried his face in her hair, said nothing, and fell asleep almost as soon as he closed his eyes.
Half an hour later, Feng Duhan entered the main hall with a cold expression, sat down at the top position, and the chief attendant sat on one side, carefully looking at the two adults standing silently below-Admiral of the Nine Gates and Yin of the Shuntian Mansion.
After the cold guards arrived at the Zhenguo Mansion, they were the first to take control of the back house, replacing the subordinates of the Admiral of the Nine Gates, and ...... They also caught two thieves hiding in several uninhabited houses.
This time, it is equivalent to directly slapping the faces of the Admiral of Jiumen and the Yin of Shuntian Mansion.
They searched and blocked the Zhenguo Mansion again, but they didn't expect that there were thieves hiding in the back house, fortunately, those thieves were frightened and didn't make waves, otherwise there was an accident in the house, and they had a few heads and it was not enough to compensate.
The emperor deliberately sent the chief chamberlain to sit in the town, which showed that he was completely biased towards the side of the prince of the southern king.
Seeing the two thieves who were tied up like twisted flowers and thrown to the ground, Admiral Jiumen's face turned red and white for a while, and he shouted: "Someone! Take these two guys down and serve them well! ”
Feng Duhan was silent, and looked at the Admiral of the Nine Gates coldly.
Lord Yin Shao of Shuntian Mansion was exquisite, and when he saw this, he felt that it was not good, and hurriedly said: "Lord Shizi, my subordinates will take someone to interrogate the prisoner first, and when there is news, I will send someone to report it immediately." ”
The wind twilight and cold bowed slightly.
Lord Yin Shao of Shuntian Mansion trotted out of the main hall.
The chief chamberlain sat down for a while, listened to the people below coming back and forth, and after an hour he took his leave and went back to the palace.
At dawn, Shuntianfu Yin came out with two black circles under his eyes, and the prisoners who were interrogated were almost peeled off a layer of skin, but they didn't even find any useful clues.
"Maybe they're really just ordinary ......," one of the officials yawned and advised, "Your Excellency, why don't you just report it." ”
Master Shao glared at the man fiercely, "Will you believe this?" "Even if ordinary thieves rob houses, they will never dare to easily touch the courtyards of these high-ranking mansions.
"My subordinates don't believe it either." The official grimaced, "But they don't know anything, and if we continue to serve, we won't be able to explain to the higher authorities if we die." ”
Lord Shao thought for a moment, and felt that he should still inquire about the news from the Admiral of the Nine Gates, and after a night, he should also find out something.
So he sent an errand boy to inquire about the news.
After a while, the man came back, with a look of panic on his face, "My lord, now that the fifth battalion is no longer in charge, who do you want to ask the little one to inquire about......?"
Lord Shao was stunned, the fifth battalion of the infantry patrol belonged to the commander of the Nine Gates, and was responsible for the garrison and security of the capital, how could it be said that no one was responsible?
"Where's the Admiral of the Nine Gates?"
"I heard that I was summoned to the palace before dawn and never came back......"
Lord Shao's mind buzzed.
I can't figure out that the position of Admiral of the Nine Gates is going to be replaced!
His heart was suddenly confused, and he wondered if he would be implicated.
Thinking about it, Lord Shao felt more and more that the matter of the Zhenguo Mansion going into the water and getting into the thief was by no means as simple as it seemed on the surface.
Hurriedly went to the main hall to find the prince of Nanwang, hoping to get him to find a way out, but was told by his subordinates that the princess was unwell, and the prince had just gone to the back house, and he didn't know when he would come back.
Master Shao stomped his feet in a hurry.
At this moment, a man dressed as a servant came out of the main hall, and Lord Shao's eyes couldn't help but light up.
"Lord Tsing Yi." At this time, he couldn't care about his identity as a positive third product, and said with a smile: "The lower officials are incompetent, they can't find useful news, I don't know what else the prince has to order, the lower officials will do their best." ”
In order to keep his official position and small life, he could only cling to the ship of the prince of Nanwang.
Tsing Yi looked at Shuntian Mansion Yin coldly, in terms of grade, the other party was older than him, but his master was something that those people couldn't afford to mess with, so he didn't mind accepting the compliment from Lord Shao.
"Lord Admiral Jiumen was summoned to the palace, and he hasn't come back yet, presumably Lord Shao should have heard about one or two ......."
Master Shao's nose couldn't help but beads of sweat, and he said in his heart: The next one will be his turn.
"The prince is worried that there are people behind these thieves, and the land of the capital is at the feet of the prince, and there are many dignitaries and dignitaries, in case they wander to other mansions to make trouble, it will inevitably disturb the holy car and make it difficult for you to do it."
"So...... What the prince meant ...... "Faintly, Lord Shao has already guessed the plan of the prince of Nanwang."
"Cooperate with the infantry army to patrol the manpower of the five battalions, and seal the city and search."
Lord Shao was stunned, "But ......" If there is no holy decree, the closure and search of the city is equivalent to committing chaos, and now the Admiral of the Nine Gates does not know where he is, and there is no one to lead the five battalions.
"Lord Shao, don't panic, you can arrange for people first, and the holy decree will arrive soon." As soon as Tsing Yi's voice fell, the front yard came in to report the incident and said, "Lord Tsing Yi, someone from the palace has announced the decree......
