The prison of the Criminal Department is completely different from what Xiao Qin imagined.

is not as dark and damp as depicted in domestic dramas, full of life.

On the contrary, most of the cells are sunny, and the cells are very tidy.

Even the hay on the ground is said to be replaced every two days.

Those who are locked up in a cell will not cry out when they see anyone.

Instead, when they saw Father-in-law Qian, they all stood up and saluted, and then continued to do their own things.

For example, reading books, meditating, chatting with each other, these are all allowed.

It's right to think about it, those who can be imprisoned in the prison of the Criminal Department are all people with status before without exception.

Even if ordinary people commit a shocking crime, they only deserve to be locked up in an ordinary prison in Jingzhao Mansion.

The cells were two long rows, but they were actually empty, and it was often necessary to walk a long distance to occasionally spot someone inside.

Xiao Qin was the first to find Zuo Xian, the squire of the military department, who had a thick package wrapped around his left shoulder, and his whole face was very pale.

After discovering Xiao Qin, he subconsciously shrank back.

"Xiao, Xiao Qin......"

"Lord Zuo, how are you recovering from your injuries?" Father-in-law Qian stood up from behind with a smile.

Zuo Xian saw Father-in-law Qian at this time, and immediately knelt down: "Thank you Father-in-law Qian, the minister has the imperial doctor to take care of him every day, and it's almost okay." ”

"Father-in-law Qian, the case of military rations can be concluded, and the minister is guilty, but it can be ......"

"Even if you have to grieve Lord Zuo for a while, Your Majesty said that Lord Zuo should take advantage of this time to cultivate himself and reflect more."

"The minister is confused, the minister is confused!" Zuo Xian suddenly burst into tears: "Please Gonggong Qian must play Your Majesty, the guilty minister knows that it is wrong." ”

"In the future, there will never be half-heartedness, Your Majesty will do whatever you want, even if you let the guilty minister die immediately, the minister will never say anything."

Xiao Qin was taken aback, this Zuo Xian was really a cunning person, and it seemed that he had seen through the problem in the past few days.

In fact, he didn't make any serious mistakes, and it's normal for him to be an official.

To say that the sin deserves to be dead, that is, when choosing to stand in line, he did not choose to stand with Xiao Qin in time.

Instead, he chose to mistakenly believe in the rule of the king, or the backer behind the rule of the king.

It would have been nothing.

The key is that Xiao Qin is the emperor's person, and if he didn't choose Xiao Qin, it is tantamount to indirectly disobeying the holy will.

Seeing that the people behind Wang Quanzhi even gave up Wang Quanzhi, Zuo Xian suddenly realized that he had bet on the wrong treasure this time.

It should never be an enemy of Xiao Qin.

"Don't worry, Lord Zuo, the old slave will definitely bring the words, Lord Xiao, do you have something to say?"

Xiao Qin looked at Zuo Xian expressionlessly and shook his head indifferently.

Zuo Xian was also only a victim of political struggle, but he once gave him a chance.

Some people look smart on the surface, but in fact they are just clever.

Obviously, the person who carried the black pot had been determined to be the rule of the king.

Emperor Qin naturally wouldn't care about this kind of person in general, and he might be locked up for a while, so he would naturally let him go.

"Lord Zuo is so self-conscious."

After Xiao Qin finished speaking, he turned around.

The next thing I saw was Wang Quanzhi.

He looked very calm, and when he saw Xiao Qin and Father-in-law Qian coming with the holy decree, he didn't show any surprise.

"Father-in-law Qian, I'll come." Xiao Qin looked at the holy decree and stretched out his hand.

Father-in-law Qian patted Xiao Qin meaningfully, and then turned around and walked away with a group of people.

"Xiao Qin, you are very different from what you expected."

The first to speak was the king's rule.

Xiao Qin sat directly on the spot: "I want to hear the details." ”

"You are not the emperor's first sword, and you will never be the first."

"But what makes you different from those people in the past is that they rush forward desperately, but they don't know what they are rushing for."

"Therefore, without exception, they eventually became the emperor's outcasts."

"There's a question that has been bothering me lately, Xiao Qin, for the sake of me being a dying person, please tell me......"

"Who are you?"

Wang Quanzhi's eyes were like a sharp knife, and for a moment, Xiao Qin didn't dare to look at each other, panicked.

After waiting for a long time, I saw that Xiao Qin didn't speak.

Wang Quanzhi smiled: "What you don't know is Xiao Qin, although you do have some talent, you are not enough to become a real champion. ”

Xiao Qin was stunned: "What do you want to say." ”

"In the end, I was also fortunate to participate in the court examination, and the first place in the first and second trials was not you, but you should have been the ninth."

"It's just a good list to be on the first list!"

"It is the emperor who overrides public opinion, and he must make you the champion, so that you have today."

"That's weird." Xiao Qin shrugged his shoulders: "I'm a poor man with no background, and I didn't know the emperor before, why?" ”

"Why?" Wang Quanzhi laughed: "Haven't you figured it out until now?" ”

"It is already difficult for the poor family to survive, how can it be compared to those noble children who have been taught by famous teachers since childhood and poured a lot of resources."

"Is it just a hard struggle with enthusiasm?"

"Jokes, it's just a joke, not to mention knowledge and vision, what do poor students compare with the children of the nobility?"

"You should have guessed that the top eight in the court exam, without exception, are all children of the powerful."

"And the reason why you Xiao Qin became the champion is only because the emperor needs you to be the champion!"

Xiao Qin had nothing to say.

He had to admit that Wang Quanzhi's words were right.

"But I remember that Zhang Liu, who ranked fifth in the first list, and Xie Chengqian, who ranked seventh, were also from poor families."

"What do you think? Zhang Liu and Xie Chengqian are just Xiao Qin's spare tires, or you Xiao Qin is their spare tire. ”

"The only difference between you and them is that you just survived."

"Then I don't understand." Xiao Qinfa asked: "You are so blatant to fight with the emperor, have you thought about the consequences?" ”

Wang Quanzhi asked rhetorically: "Who told you that we are fighting with the emperor?" ”

"Xiao Qin, you can get to this point, I thought you had seen through the situation, or at least saw the clues, it turned out that you didn't know anything."

"No one wants to fight the emperor, we just want to live for ourselves."

"Or rather, the emperor needs us to do this, to perform like this."

"It's just that I'm more unlucky, and I was chosen to be your stepping stone for Xiao Qin."

"But Xiao Qin, do you really think you can control your own destiny?"

"Maybe soon, you'll be in the position I was in before, even higher than mine."

"At that point, you'll understand how deep the water is."

"All you have done has been in vain."

"I'll repeat that day." Wang Quanzhi looked at Xiao Qin with a smile, but now he burst out with hatred like the sea: "I, look at how you die!" ”
