Chapter 464: Don't be spared if you touch it again

As Shangguan Li said, the holy decree that fished Shangguan Xun out of prison arrived at the criminal department in the afternoon.

This person, who was basically in a hopeless state in the eyes of everyone, really walked out of the prison of the Criminal Department unharmed.

In the end, Shangguan Xun himself was only confined to the government for half a month and could not go to the court, plus a year of lulu. Although the temporary inability to participate in the government politics must have been a big blow to Shangguan Xun, compared to the previous situation, it is already a heaven and a earth.

But Zhang Yuanniang, who personally drugged Shangguan Li, must not have been able to escape, and Shangguan Xun was taken to the Criminal Department by the guards just after he was released from prison.

It's just that when the person was escorted over, it was obvious that there was a big problem with his spirit, and he was in a trance for most of the day.

Only occasionally in the middle of the night, she would be a little sober for a while, and then she would cry and curse, scolding Shangguan Xun, Shangguan Li, and more often, scolding Shangguan Yue's wolf heart and lungs.

But when Shangguan Li had already greeted Gao Yong in advance, none of the officials paid attention to her, and after two or three days, her voice was so dumb that she couldn't say a word anymore, and the night of the prison was quiet.

It was a gloomy day, with black clouds rolling, and it was just past afternoon, but it seemed like it was nearly evening. The water vapor in the air is so thick that it seems to be able to squeeze out a handful of water at any moment.

Shangguanbu's carriage slowly stopped at the door of the Jing Hall.

Before the rain fell, two men lifted the curtain and walked out.

Walking in front is naturally Shangguan Bu, the crisis of the Prime Minister's Mansion in the past two days has passed, although there is still a residual impact of the past, but it is slowly getting better.

The poison that he had given to his side in order to force Shangguan Xun to fall had already been resolved, so there was a rare amount of blood on his face.

Walking behind him was a handsome young man, who looked a little shy, and followed Shangguan Bu step by step, without looking up, only turning his head sideways and smiling when Shangguan Bu turned his head to talk to him.

The two of them walked to the door, and before they could knock, the door was opened from the inside.

Zhang Lei looked at the two people outside the door and gave a sincere smile.

"The county lord said that the eldest prince should also come today, sure enough, please come in."

Shangguan Bu let out a "huh" and pointed to the young man behind him and asked.

"You don't even ask who he is, just let him in?"

Zhang Lei's smile did not decrease.

"The county lord said that if someone comes with the eldest prince, that person must be trustworthy, don't worry about it."

"Tsk, the county lord said the county lord said. My third sister is really like a god, you say? ”

The door closed behind them, and the shy look on the delicate young man's face immediately disappeared without a trace.

"He" tore off the mask on his face, revealing a bright-eyed, bright-toothed, and extraordinary face underneath.

It was Situ.

She smiled.

"I'll just say that Sister must know it's me, look, young master, you lost, don't forget to promise me that I was drunk in March."

"Got it, got it."

Shangguan Bu sighed.

finally had a chance to send this great god away, and stayed in the Prime Minister's Mansion, where others always doubted his relationship with Situ, which made him uncomfortable.

After the two walked into the courtyard, they quickly met the person they wanted to see.

Shangguan Li moved a Taishi chair and sat under the porch, tinkering with something, looking quite serious.

If it weren't for the unknown insect corpses piled up at her feet, Shangguan Bu would have thought she was looking at some kind of treasure.

The corner of his eye twitched, no matter how many times he watched it, this scene was terrifying enough.

But Situ was not afraid at all, and as if he was already commonplace, he shouted from afar.

"Sister!"

Shangguan Li raised his head from the work in his hand, not surprised.

When the two of them walked in front of him, he asked with a smile.

"How, cleaned up?"

Shangguan Bu, whose attention was all under his feet, was highly concentrated, and he didn't have time to answer Shangguan Li's question, so Xitu hurriedly said.

"Sister rest assured, Hongxuan is already 'dead', and now that the corpse has turned to ashes, no one will be aware of Hongxuan's true identity. But Sister, what are you doing with this new poison? ”

"Well done."

Shangguan Li first praised it, and then said.

"These are feather insects that I asked for from Your Majesty, well, I'm still working on them, and I'll tell you when I'm done."

"Katafeather insects?!"

Xitu exclaimed, and the surprise in his voice attracted Shangguan Bu, who was annoyed and had nowhere to go, and he didn't know much about these poisonous insects.

To be honest, if Shangguan Li hadn't been known for this, he probably wouldn't want to see these things in his life.

"What is a feather insect, is it rare?"

"It's not just rare, it's just rare!"

Xitu's mouth opened exaggeratedly, and his eyes stared at the dead insects at Shangguan Li's feet with some obsession.

"This kind of insect is worth a piece of gold the size of a thumb in our hometown!"

"Golden ...... Uh-huh! ”

Shangguan Bu was directly choked by his own saliva and came back to life.

Since he started his business, he has been quite clear that the value of things that can be linked to gold must be unusual, and listening to Situ's description, a worm must have half a tael of gold?

Is it really that expensive?

Seeing that Xitu's eyes staring at the corpse of the insect had begun to glow green, Shangguan Li reluctantly knocked her on the hand.

"You know a lot, but feather insects are generally valuable when they are alive, and now that these are dead, take them out, and exchange them for a few hundred taels of silver at most."

That's a lot, okay?

Shangguan Bu silently complained.

Situ really regretted it when he heard this.

"Alright."

Shangguan Li temporarily put down the work in his hand.

"What did you come to me for?"

Shangguan Bu hesitated for a moment, but he still didn't have enough courage to step over the corpse of the insect and walk in front of her, so he could only raise his voice.

"First, I came to send Miss Xitu back, and there have been a lot of eyeliners around the Prime Minister's Mansion recently, and I'm afraid that if I let Miss Xitu come back alone, it will attract the attention of others. Two ......"

The smile on his face was a little more helpless.

"Dad, let me ask you what your plans are next, third sister. He already knows the deadline given by His Majesty, and I don't think Dad will lie to you this time. ”

Shangguan Li smiled.

"I wasted so much effort to get him out, and I didn't regret it in a few days. There's nothing to do now, just one thing, just do what the prime minister should do, and I don't want to know about the dirty things before, and I won't pursue it anymore. ”

The smile on her face narrowed.

"But if you touch it again, you will not be spared."
