It was getting late, but because it was already winter, the sun was also very faintly oblique on the palace.

And the prince was in the palace of the prince's own bedroom, standing by the windowsill, looking at the red sky outside, thinking about something.

Suddenly, a breath appeared in his perception.

This breath is naturally very familiar, and he doesn't have too many scruples at the moment, and he hasn't shifted his gaze.

"You're back. ”

After a moment of silence, Qiong Haolong said so calmly.

Then, Feng Xiao, who was standing a few zhang away behind him, spoke: "His Royal Highness the Prince." ”

And after hearing Dao Fengxiao's call, Qiong Haolong turned around and set his eyes on him.

In the past month, Feng Xiao has been running around, and according to the original plan, he thoroughly investigated all the officials who might be guilty from beginning to end.

Truth be told, he came back a little sooner than originally expected.

However, at this moment, Qiong Haolong also noticed that there didn't seem to be much sense of completing the task on Feng Xiao's face.

"What's wrong?"

After noticing the expression on Feng Xiao's face, Qiong Haolong also immediately asked.

Feng Xiao breathed a sigh of relief gently, and with a flip of his side, a roll of brocade silk was taken out of the ring and was now in the palm of his hand.

Then he did not rush to speak, but took a step, walked to the wooden table in front of him, and spread the brocade silk in his hand on the table.

On this piece of brocade, there are names recorded one after another, these are the lists of sinners that Feng Xiao and Qiong Haolong originally discussed.

And on these names, some are crossed out, and they seem to be names that have been removed.

However, there are still nearly twenty or so names left.

And after Qiong Haolong approached, he immediately noticed that there were several question marks on the side of one of the names.

"Are 20 people suspicious......

Qiong Haolong's complexion also showed a slight regret.

After all, this is the territory of his Xiaoqiong Kingdom, and there will be so many officials with the possibility of enemies in this officialdom, how can this not make Qiong Haolong sad.

These people are all people who handle state affairs for the Xiaoqiong Kingdom and his father.

Not one of them did not eat the money given by the royal family, but there were still so many people who committed despicable acts.

"This time I went out, and in addition to thoroughly investigating these extremely suspicious people, I also found out some local corrupt officials and corrupt officials, and I will then compile the list of those people for His Royal Highness the Crown Prince. Now, I still have one thing to ask His Royal Highness the Crown Prince for. ”

At the end of his words, his words began to take on a somewhat solemn color.

Feng Xiao rarely showed such feelings, which really surprised Qiong Haolong.

Subsequently, Qiong Haolong did not hesitate.

"Tell me about it. ”

Even Feng Xiao felt that it was tricky, which indeed surprised Qiong Haolong.

After Qiong Haolong's words, Feng Xiao still deliberately noticed the aura around him, and only after confirming some things did he speak.

"Your Royal Highness the Prince, look at this name that I have crossed a question mark. ”

Then, Feng Xiao reached out and tapped a few points below the name that was marked with a question mark.

When the words fell, Qiong Haolong stared away in the direction of Feng Xiao's fingers.

And the moment he saw this name, Qiong Haolong was stunned.

"Prime Minister Li?"

Seeing this name, Qiong Haolong naturally recognized who he was.

However, Feng Xiao brought up this person, which obviously surprised him a little.

Before that, the two discussed the possible suspects, either from unknown origins and loopholes, or from low-key officials but prominent officials.

At that time, when Feng Xiao mentioned Li Xuan, Qiong Haolong didn't pay too much attention to it.

Because Li Xuan has always treated Qiong Haolong, whether in the court or in private, he can be regarded as taking care of him.

What's more, Li Xuan is an official, it can be said that since Qiong Haolong was sensible, he has always been honest and upright, and his achievements are even more conspicuous.

If you want to judge directly, Qiong Haolong will definitely not think that Li Xuan will be an enemy.

"During the time I was investigating, all the other officials were able to find out as quickly as possible. ”

Feng Xiao said, her words still revealing a dignified look, "But only this Prime Minister Li Cheng, I can't investigate him thoroughly." What I know, in addition to what everyone knows, is that his family was destroyed in the year he became an official. This was not originally a doubt, but I found that the qiē about his family had been cleaned up so cleanly that it seemed that there had never been a zài, leaving only an empty name. ”

In fact, people who are originally clean and thorough are easy to be thoroughly investigated.

However, a person like Li Xuan, who is so clean that there is no trace left, will become a huge suspicion even more.

It is even more difficult to find out something than those who hide deeply.

However, this does not directly convict him, not to mention that his reputation is also unprecedentedly high, so after some thought, Feng Xiao still put a few question marks on him.

"Is that so?"

Originally, Qiong Haolong didn't care too much, so he didn't find out.

And now that he thinks about it carefully, unless Li Xuan mentions it by others, he will not tell others about its origin or anything about his family at all.

If you think about it from the perspective that he is an enemy, then he did it so that no one else could see his flaws.

If you think about it carefully, if he is really an enemy, then it is definitely a huge bomb for the royal family.

Moreover, it is the time that he has been an official in the court for decades, if Feng Xiao's speculation is correct, the strategies of the Zhongtian Kingdom and the Haojin Kingdom have been brewing for decades.

In this way, how could the Xiaoqiong Kingdom disintegrate their decades-old achievements in a short period of time?

"It's not as simple as me saying if I can send someone to investigate. ”

Thinking of this, Qiong Haolong's consciousness also showed some solemnity, "Prime Minister Li Cheng can be said to be the most trusted person in the court by his father except for his uncle. And it is rumored that he also supported his father to ascend the throne, such a person, no matter what I say, I can't move him at all. ”

In fact, whether it is checked or not, this is still the most helpless point of Qiong Haolong.

Let's not say that Qiong Haolong really doesn't want to believe that Li Xuan is an enemy, even if he is, he can't do anything.

"Well, then, let him show his fox tail himself. ”

After a while, Feng Xiao looked at Qiong Haolong's solemn expression, and the corners of her mouth revealed a confident arc.

Looking at his expression, Qiong Haolong was stunned.

The method in Feng Xiao's heart was also the result that he came up with after some deliberation on the way back.

Now the difference is just Qiong Haolong's help on the side.

"Do you have a solution?"

After being stunned for a moment, Qiong Haolong also asked.

Feng Xiao replied: "This time I came, my original intention was to mention this matter to His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and ask for some help. ”

"Tell me, what help you need. ”

Qiong Haolong didn't hesitate too much, and immediately asked.

Since he no longer has so many scruples, Feng Xiao also immediately spoke: "I need His Royal Highness the Crown Prince to spread some news when he arrives tomorrow morning." ”

"Message?"

Qiong Haolong was stunned, obviously not understanding what he meant.

What does the news have to do with confirming whether Li Xuan is an enemy?

"Yes, that's the news. ”

The corners of Feng Xiao's mouth curled, and then he said, "Your Royal Highness the Prince, tomorrow morning, when the court arrives, I will report all these people I pointed out today to the king, these people are very important, and the king can understand." At the same time, you also mention Prime Minister Li Cheng more, so that's it. ”

His meaning is very clear, he wants to use psychological warfare to defeat Prime Minister Li Cheng above the court.

After all, Prime Minister Li Cheng is now prestigious, so naturally there are many pairs of eyes staring at him.

Therefore, he must have no flaws in his daily work, and in order to have no flaws, the most direct way is to hold the illness.

If he is under Qiong Haolong's strong pressure tomorrow, he will inevitably give Li Xuan a feeling that he has been targeted, and this will also be a great burden on him psychologically.

And in this way, whether he is a local work or not, he will inevitably choose to stay at home with his illness and no longer appear in the court.

This is the best way to protect one's self in the court.

After all, the world still has to be based on facts, not just sit upright and be safe.

After all, his status is unusual, it is the prime minister, the status of one person under ten thousand people in the Xiaoqiong Kingdom.

"But if he were not an enemy, wouldn't he have been treated badly?"

No matter what, Li Xuan has taken care of Qiong Haolong more than once, so Qiong Haolong is naturally grateful.

Feng Xiao breathed a sigh of relief softly, her eyes fixed on him.

"Your Royal Highness the Prince, you have to see clearly that the weak and the strong survive in this world, if you don't have the ability, even if you and I don't make a move, one day we will be swallowed up by the long river of time. ”

Feng Xiao said, "What's more, this is not another place, this is the court." He is in a high position, there are countless pairs of eyes staring at him all the time, he is already very tired from doing things on weekdays, let him go home to rest for a few days, maybe it is also for his body. If His Royal Highness the Crown Prince still felt unbearable, he confirmed that he was not an enemy after this matter had passed, and then came to the door. ”

Compared with Qiong Haolong, Feng Xiao sees the world more thoroughly.

Qiong Haolong was born in the royal family, and he didn't see the people and the world so thoroughly.

After all, Qiong Haolong is only nineteen years old, and Feng Xiao is already a human being in two lifetimes.
