Chapter Ninety-Nine: Isn't That Looking for Death?

From three o'clock in the afternoon, as soon as Shen Xuzhi got off duty, there was a carriage waiting outside the gate of Dali Temple, which looked extremely low-key, and it seemed that he was acting secretly.

Father-in-law Su changed his clothes in the palace and dressed like an ordinary housekeeper, Shen Xuzhi narrowed his eyes and went down the steps.

"Grandpa Su!"

"Shen Gongzi!" Father-in-law Su smiled kindly, very respectfully, "The master asked our family to invite the son's family to talk about it."

"Father-in-law Lao Su will lead the way!"

Shen Xu got into the carriage, then closed his eyes to recuperate, and the face-to-face Su Gonggong admired him for such an indifferent and calm temperament, although there have always been rumors in Beijing that Shen Xu was not doing his job, but he didn't feel that the rumors were untrue until he saw them with his own eyes today.

Shen Xu looked a little uninhibited on the outside, but this step by step was very much like General Shen.

"Is Grandpa Su going to keep an eye on me all the way?" Shen Xuzhi suddenly opened his eyes, revealing a trace of tiredness.

"Our family is abrupt, don't blame Shen Shaoqing! Looking at you is like seeing the old General Shen when he was young, and he sighed for a while." Father-in-law Su was still indifferent and respectful.

Shen Xuzhi waved his hand, "My father-in-law has lifted me, I'm not as good as my father's half a finger, it's still a long way, my father-in-law can have the leisure to accompany my grandma and relieve boredom."

"Yo, what are you talking about Shaoqing, our family is panicked for a while."

"It's better to ...... Let's talk about why Your Majesty summoned me! I don't know why my heart is beating too fast, and I don't know if I have done something wrong recently, and His Majesty wants to punish me?" Shen Xuzhi touched his heart as he spoke, looking at Gonggong Su's eyes with temptation.

Gonggong Su was silent for a long time, and then laughed: "Shaoqing has lifted up our family, Your Majesty really didn't say anything today, and our family is not good at guessing the holy will!"

Shen Xuzhi knew that he wouldn't say anything more, so he sat back down with his eyes narrowed.

Father-in-law Su took Shen Xuzhi to bypass the patrolling forbidden army, walked the path that was basically abandoned on weekdays, and stopped in front of the door outside the imperial study: "Shaoqing go in by yourself, Your Majesty is inside."

Shen Xuzhi nodded, glanced at the forbidden army outside the imperial study, the guards were at least twice as many as usual, he guessed well, and the way he came was also to let people see, so he deliberately spared the long way.

"Thank you, father-in-law."

In the hall, there was silence, the emperor turned his back to himself and observed the landscape paintings on the wall, Shen Xuzhi spread out his clothes and knelt in front of the bookcase: "Minister Shen Xuzhi see Your Majesty!"

The emperor's eyes drooped slightly, and he said in a tone that was not angry and arrogant, "Coming?"

He turned around and saw Shen Xuzhi kneeling, raised his hand to signal him to get up, and pointed to the chair in front of the bookcase: "Sit down!"

Shen Xuzhi glanced at the chair and chuckled: "Thank you, Your Majesty, the minister won't sit down, otherwise he will have to get up later."

The Emperor was amused by him and snorted coldly, "Why, do you know what I came to you for?"

Shen Xuzhi pretended to be stupid and shook his head, and smirked: "Your Majesty's thoughts, how can the minister know, it's just that today's atmosphere is not very good, just guess."

"Shen Xuzhi, don't think that your father is Shen Zicheng, I don't dare to do anything to you! You are so bold that you dare to deceive the king!" The emperor was furious and patted the book case and glared at Shen Xuzhi.

Shen Xuzhi knelt back again, "Your Majesty is angry! It's just that the crime is too big, and the minister dares to ask His Majesty when the minister committed the great crime of bullying the king!"

"Still hard-mouthed? You took a five-day leave of absence, what did you tell me? also let me hide it from Shen Zicheng, what the hell did you do, royal secrets, you are not a bully!"

"Your Majesty, you know, the minister is just curious, and he has no other meaning, please ask Your Majesty to learn clearly!"

"Okay, you're saying that I wronged you, since you're curious for a while, you might as well tell me what you found in Xuzhou? Say it and I'll know what you mean."

"Don't dare to deceive Your Majesty, when the minister arrived in Xuzhou, Wang Fu's family had already died!" Shen Xuzhi shook his head and told the emperor what he had seen, but it was not a lie to look at some of the hidden facts.

The emperor's eyes narrowed slightly, according to the clues You Xin gave him, Shen Xuzhi did not lie. However, Shen Xuzhi can't go out anymore, at least not until he finds out the secret

Yes.

"It seems that you won't say it?"

"Your Majesty, Your Majesty ......"

"Someone came, Shen Xuzhi left his post without permission, deceived the king, and was imprisoned in the prison of the Criminal Department, waiting for interrogation!"

The emperor stood up, and as soon as he gave an order, the forbidden army outside them rushed in and took Shen Xuzhi down, but he didn't resist, and was escorted by others.

When he got up, the emperor was brushing his sleeves and leaving, the corners of his mouth smiled contemptuously, but his eyes looked at the plaque on the main hall of the imperial study, which was written by the emperor himself. The next moment, he was escorted away.

"Master, there is news from the palace, Zhao Zi and His Second Highness have searched several times, but they have not found any place with a secret passage." Yun Yi said and entered the house.

In the room, Ji Fu sat on a chair and groped for the jade pendant that had fallen off expediently, and his thoughts were uneasy.

"If there is an abnormality, that group of craftsmen can also find it, send a message back to Zhao Zi and them to stop first, searching too often may arouse suspicion."

"Yes, master, are you alright?" Yun Yi looked at Ji Fu uneasily, trying to find a trace of emotion in his eyes.

"It's okay, you continue to send people to keep an eye on the Imperial Temple, and as soon as someone approaches, whoever takes it down immediately, bring it to me!" Ji Fu hid his emotions, he knew that he couldn't panic at the moment.

Yun nodded a little, and said that he retreated.

There are Zhao Zi in the palace and they are staring, and Ji Fu outside the palace has also sent secret guards, and it is impossible to escape their eyes once someone leaves.

Shen Xuzhi was escorted to the Criminal Department, walking on the palace road, he glanced around, and met a group of forbidden soldiers who were patrolling, it seemed that Zhao Zi was leading the team, he suddenly fell to the ground and shouted, trying to attract Zhao Zi's attention.

"What's the matter, what are you crying wolf?" The guards who held him impatiently pulled him up.

"Oh, you light, Lao Tzu ate the wrong thing this morning, my stomach hurts, I want to go to the toilet!" Shen Xuzhi began to play with Laipi, rolling on the ground, like a loach, which was uncatchable.

The leading guard was anxious and angry, and directly kicked Shen Xuzhi in the abdomen, and said viciously: "Death is on the verge of death, and you don't want to see what kind of place this is, let you play dead skin, get up!"

He said and wanted to kick Shen Xuzhi again, but a voice stopped him: "Stop!"

Shen Xuzhi raised his eyes and saw that Zhao Zi came over with someone, he breathed a sigh of relief, it was not in vain that he acted in such a play, and he was also kicked.

Zhao Zi glanced at a few people, his eyes stayed on Shen Xuzhi for a while, then turned his head and asked the kicking guard and asked, "What's the matter?"

"Back to General Zhao's words, Shaoqing of Dali Temple left his post without permission, and His Majesty was angry and asked me to escort him to the prison of the Criminal Department to listen to interrogation." The adult's guard saw that it was Zhao Zi, and covered up Fang Cai's dissatisfaction, and saluted respectfully.

"Oh, General Zhao, this guard oppresses people with power, and the minister has a stomachache and wants to go to the toilet, but he declares his personal vendetta, and General Zhao administers justice for me!" Before he finished speaking, Shen Xuzhi cried wolf again.

Zhao Zi glanced at him, "Take him to the toilet!"

"General, this ......" the guard tried to stop.

Zhao Zi stared at him, "You guys go too, what's the matter, I'm afraid that General Ben will let him go?"

"Don't dare, take him up!" The guard turned his head and ordered, and Shen Xuzhi got up from the ground.

Outside the toilet, Zhao Zi and the group of guards were waiting outside the door, Shen Xu went in alone, lay down in the gap in the door frame and looked out a few times, and saw that no one outside moved, so he was relieved.

After patrolling the floor of the toilet, he found half a wooden stick, put his hand into his arms and took out the fire hammer to blow and dye, burned the charcoal on the wooden stick, and wrote on the wall, the iron chain in his hand was pulled and made a sound, he quickly heard his hand shout outside: "Immediately Ang, wait a minute!"

At this moment, his men were lighter, wrote a few words quickly, threw the stick into the pit, and then pretended to lift his pants and walked out, looking satisfied.

"Oh, it's so comfortable, ah! Thank you, General Zhao!" He raised his hand and saluted Zhao Zi, raised his eyes to interact with Zhao Zi's eyes, and quickly moved away the next moment.

"It's still General Zhao who knows that he feels sorry for people, unlike some people......" he said, deliberately glancing behind him.

Zhao Zi chuckled, "Shaoqing, they are also acting on orders, don't worry about them, Shaoqing is out, take it to the Criminal Department to restore your life!" Don't lose time."

The guard thought that Zhao Zi would embarrass them, but he didn't expect Zhao Zi to let people go so happily and help them speak, he was stunned, and he didn't react: "Thank you for finding the general, then the subordinates will go to restore their lives first!"

"General Zhao, farewell!"

Zhao Zi nodded, Zhao Zi deliberately looked around, and made sure that no one was staring at him, so he flashed into the toilet, but the smell was indeed a little ...... Shen Xuzhi really went to the toilet? He gagged his nose and glanced at it, and found the words left by Shen Xuzhi on the wall behind him.

"Qingming World!" Zhao Zi muttered these four words, recalled them in his mind, suddenly thought of something, didn't dare to stay, destroyed the words on the wall and left quickly.

"Master, Shen Xuzhi has been sent to the prison of the Criminal Department!" Bai Manqing came in in a panic, but he didn't see Ji Fu's person, and he found the door again in confusion.

Ji Fu lurked in the forest not far from the palace, and someone came out with news that Shen Xuzhi was taken into the prison of the Criminal Department, as well as the four-character note brought out by Zhao Zi.

Qingming world, if he remembers correctly, the plaque on the wall of the main hall of the emperor's imperial study is these four words. The inscription of the first emperor, if you know the mind of the right duo, the first emperor will definitely keep a hand, the first emperor was already a little weak at that time, the legs and feet were inconvenient, and even the four princes were replaced by the four princes on weekdays.

At that time, he suddenly wanted to write an inscription, saying that it was a blessing for himself, but in fact, it was meaningless, right?

He raised his eyes and looked in the direction of the palace, Yun Ran realized his thoughts, "Master, are you going to sneak into the palace? This is just Shen Xuzhi's speculation, what if the emperor leads us into the game?"

"Time is too tight, whether it's true or not, I have to go in and check, Bai Manqing must know the news that Shen Xuzhi was imprisoned, you go and help her find out the news of the Criminal Department."

"Yes, master, be careful!"

"Guard Lee!" There were already people waiting in the prison of the Criminal Department, but there was no shadow of the squire of the Criminal Department, and Shen Xuzhi couldn't help but wonder.

The person who connected was the cell head of the Criminal Department, and glanced at Shen Xuzhi, "This is Shen Shaoqing?"

Shen Xuzhi held his head high, "Exactly!"

"This man is arrogant and has a bad brain, so be careful! We'll go first, and Your Majesty is still waiting for us to go back and resume our lives!" The guard who kicked Shen Xuzhi glanced at the person behind him with disdain, and complained to the cell boss.

Shen Xuzhi snorted coldly in dissatisfaction, sent away the guards who escorted him, and the cell head pulled the iron chain between Shen Xuzhi's hands, and smiled innocently: "Shen Gongzi, don't come to harm, please come to our criminal department to stay!"

"Brother Cell Boss, why haven't you seen the squire of the Criminal Department, it is said that a prisoner with such an important waist as me has to be a squire to come to answer you, and you will be left alone?" Shen Xuzhi let him pull himself to the cell.

"Hey, Shen Shaoqing, what do you think? The squire has a heavy responsibility, how can these little things bother him to come in person, I will take care of them all by hand." The cell boss smiled, but he didn't have any bad intentions, opened the door of a cell, and waited outside the door.

Shen Xuzhi swaggered in, stood outside the door, and took his hand to lock the door: "That is, you don't know where your squire is?"

"The squire is naturally handling the case in the court, Princess Shen, do you want to meet it?" The cell boss said, stroking Shen Xuzhi's hand away from his hand.

The cell boss laughed so that Shen Xu's back was cold, and he was a little panicked, and quickly waved his hand: "No, no need, I'll just ask!"

Looking for You Xin, maybe he will use all kinds of torture tools in the Criminal Department, but he will still settle down, anyway, the news has spread.

"Okay, then you can rest first, and call me if you have something!"

Shen Xuzhi nodded, the old man left, and he had time to look at the cell, the haystack, and a tattered wooden bed, the ground was extremely wet, and a few mice sprang out from the soles of his feet from time to time.

He closed his eyes and took a deep breath and screamed, he had given too much to repay the favor!
