The sun rises on the branches, and the warm sunlight dispels the chill and opens a new day for the city.

The walkman and pawn run through the streets and alleys.

Street vendors shout and buy.

The painting boat in the river died down.

The shops in the West Market hang up their banners.

Prosper the capital, singing and dancing.

No one knows that under this seemingly peaceful capital, there is a hidden storm and clouds that are about to move.

Once the drama of seizing the heir is staged, I don't know how many people will be involved, and how many people will be accidentally injured by stray bullets.

If what the second prince said is true, the behemoth named "Zheng Family" is really so important in the eyes of some people, it is difficult for him Zheng Xiu to be alone.

His repeated imprisonment is proof of this.

It seems to be gradually becoming clear who is doing things behind the scenes, but Zheng Xiu is not optimistic because of this.

The only thing to be thankful for is that after the troublemaker put him in prison, not only did it inspire Zheng Xiu's [Prisoner] Path, but he felt that this would be able to temporarily let this tiger settle down, and there would be no further movement for the time being.

Are you waiting for Zheng Xiu to fall?

Once the Zheng clan really dares to rebel openly, then Lao Wei will not sit idly by and will send troops to suppress it.

Zheng Xiu is now sitting on a solid triangular platform, seemingly safe, but once a certain corner collapses, the entire platform will collapse.

Zheng Xiu asked the jailer to add a pot of tea.

After a while, his former cellmate, Master Jiang, who is now the secretary of the Criminal Department, arrived belatedly and carried a street breakfast in his hand, which was not exquisite, but he always had a heart.

As soon as he got off the early court, he was caught by Scar Lao Liu, who was guarding outside the palace, called Zheng's coachman, and rushed all the way here.

Jiang Gaoyi breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that Zheng Xiu was not beaten to death.

It was rare for Jiang Gaoyi to come to visit, and Zheng Xiu invited Jiang Gaoyi to get together in prison.

Jiang Gaoyi had been in prison, and coupled with his upright temperament, he didn't care about the poor environment in prison, and happily had a long talk with Zheng Xiu.

Drinking hot soy milk and eating steamed buns and pastries, Jiang Gaoyi talked about recent events.

Originally, these things could not be said to Zheng Xiu, who was "wearing a sinful body".

But when Scar Lao Liu retreated conspicuously, Jiang Gaoyi saw that there was no one around, so he pulled Zheng Xiu to whisper.

Jiang Gaoyi's first sentence was about the "establishment of a prince", which was no different from what the second prince said, and it was set for March 3 next year.

According to Jiang Gaoyi, Lao Wei finalized the matter in front of hundreds of civil and military officials in the early dynasty without discussion.

It is said that at that time, there were three old ministers of the six departments, who did not know which side they were standing on, and plucked up the courage to admonish on the spot, saying that the four princes had just been born, and they were still young, and the holy body was like a dragon and a tiger, and they would be able to live a long life.

The ministers of the DPRK and the central government have their own relatives to several princes, this is a matter of course the inside story of officialdom, the incident happened suddenly, no one was prepared, if Jiang Gaoyi was secretly close to one of the princes, he would also find a way to delay one or two.

Jiang Gaoyi thought of the love and kindness of his fellow inmates, and at this moment, he can be said to treat Master Zheng with his heart.

He then said something that not even the second prince mentioned.

Zheng Xiu was shocked when he heard this: "You mean, those three old ministers who wanted to delay the establishment of the prince were deposed on the spot?" ”

was fired by the emperor on the spot.

"Yes!" Jiang Gaoyi's face was as sad as a rabbit dying and a fox, and he said, "Who dares to question the Holy Lord's decision?" The second prince deliberately came to save him on this trip, and he is afraid that it is related to this matter. ”

When Jiang Gaoyi first entered the officialdom of the imperial city, he experienced the horror of officialdom at close range for the first time, and what it means to "accompany the king like a tiger", and he didn't know when he would "come from the sky".

Jiang Gaoyi was first promoted to the secretary of the Criminal Department, and now he is alone in the imperial city, and there is not even a trustworthy thaumaturgist by his side.

I believe that soon someone will force him to stand.

After all, he is the secretary of the criminal department.

encountered this incident when he first entered the officialdom, and it is really hard to say how long he can sit in this position.

Jiang Gaoyi was worried between his eyebrows, obviously what he was worried about now was not only Zheng Xiu's situation, but also his own situation.

If nothing else, after the matter of Lichu was announced in the early court, someone had already secretly worked the Shangshu of the Criminal Department, and he couldn't help himself.

At that moment, Zheng Xiu patted Jiang Gaoyi on the shoulder, and smiled with relief: "Lord Jiang, you and I met in prison, and it is fate. If you are ambitious, you will join it, but the future is uncertain, and it must be very dangerous. If you just want to protect yourself, you can be false for the time being. If you encounter a crisis, you can blow a whistle at the Zheng coachman, and someone will help you. ”

After speaking, Zheng Xiu blew a few mouths.

Jiang Gaoyi was overjoyed when he heard this, and carefully wrote down the tone and length of the whistle.

He obviously knew that Lichu's matter was dangerous, but it was not something that a high-ranking foreign official could easily get involved in.

Hell ahead.

The subtlety of business lies in one word - "bribe". To put it simply, it means that there will be a return for kindness and a return for gifts.

There will be nothing wrong with having a good relationship with the Shangshu of the Criminal Department.

Zheng Xiu even hinted that if you are short of money, you can go to the money bank to withdraw it yourself. Jiang Gaoyi shook his head again and again in fright when he heard this, and said that he didn't dare to ask for it.

It seems that he is not yet thorough.

Officialdom officialdom, people who play well are shows, and if they don't play well, it's called execution.

Zheng Xiu was not reluctant.

Jiang Gaoyi didn't dare to stay too long, so he got up and wanted to leave.

Before Lord Jiang left, Zheng Xiu remembered something and asked from the side.

"White Carp Village?" Jiang Gaoyi was puzzled: "Didn't Marquis Zheng already know the result?" ”

But soon he convinced himself again, slapped his head, and said with a smile: "No wonder it is said that nobles forget things, and Marquis Zheng doesn't seem to take this matter to heart." In the tragedy of Baili Village, there were twenty-six people in the village, and only one child of the Feng family survived because he hid in the river. It's really miserable. ”

Jiang Gaoyi mentioned Fengbei, but said that after 20 years, he couldn't remember it clearly. But then he said that Fengbei was nowhere to be found, and it seems that Jiang Gaoyi didn't know that now Fengbei is in the city, and it is the third of the night.

Zheng Xiu's face was silent, but he secretly said strange things in his heart.

Wei Chen, dead?

Although Wang Cangyun rescued Wei Chen at the last moment, Zheng Xiu looked at Wei Chen's half-human, half-ghost appearance when he left, and he couldn't be sure that Wei Chen would definitely survive.

Moreover, Fengbei had nothing to do with Wei Chen back then, and as soon as Fengbei left, it was normal to leave Wei Chen in place.

Zheng Xiu saw Jiang Gaoyi leave, and promised Scar Lao Liu a little benefit, and Zheng Xiu's small villa in Wangtian Prison became quiet again.

Finally at leisure, Zheng Xiu sank down, his heart floated out, and within a moment, he had entered the heart prison.

He was going to see what had changed since he opened the eighth door.

As the eighth door opened in the middle of the door, his heart prison nearly doubled.

If it's bigger, it can be divided into three bedrooms and one living room.

Outside the prison is still foggy, which is heartwarming.

In the center of the heart, a table and a chair can see the world.

The table is a mini world, and Zheng Xiu has entered two ghosts in this world, namely [Baili Village] and [Xiangu Temple], and now they have been cleared.

Baili Village seemed to be the beginning of everything, and Zheng Xiu entered the [Prisoner] door by himself as soon as he first entered it.

And the [Xiangu Temple] ghost snake was triggered when he came into contact with the sarcoma at the back of Erniang's head.

As for [Post Station Fengbei].

It seems that with the consent of the ghost lord, Zheng Xiu can enter.

Zheng Xiu vaguely figured out the law of brushing out ghosts on the map.

He needs to take the initiative to explore.

In the final analysis, the most convenient way is to rely on Fengbei.

First, Fengbei Qi Luck is a lonely star, and it is unlucky to say that it is unpleasant, and it is easy to run into these. Moreover, Feng Bei is in a high position in the night and has more chances to meet the ghost snake than anyone else, if Zheng Xiu follows Feng Bei, the ghost snake will be like a girl in the green building, and take the initiative to pounce on his face, no need to worry.

Speaking of Fengbei, Zheng Xiu couldn't help but think of what happened in the Xiangu Temple, and was amazed at Fengbei's inhuman strength for a while.

The demeanor of razing Danglang Mountain with that knife made Zheng Xiu remember vividly, what kind of monster he saved from Baili Village twenty years ago.

If the night is not in December, it is full of monsters like Fengbei.......

Wait a minute.

Zheng Xiu touched his chin, and the professional habit of wool gathering from the merchant was instantly activated.

"If Zheng Shan's identity is revealed, is there a chance to pull Fengbei into the Zheng family's camp?"

In the matter of establishing the reserve, Zheng Xiu had no intention of interfering, let alone a reason to intervene.

But as the second prince said, it is difficult for the Zheng family to be alone, and if the invincible Fengbei can break away from Ye Weiyang and join the Zheng Group, it will undoubtedly make the already awesome Zheng family even more icing on the cake, as stable as Mount Tai.

Zheng Xiu is seriously thinking about the possibility of winning over Fengbei.

Do you have to force him to attack Fengbei again?

Zheng Xiu's conscience hurt a little.

But he quickly made a psychological adjustment and comforted himself, it was okay.

All kinds of messy things, it seems that they can finally find a solution here in Fengbei.

At this moment, the existence of Fengbei made Zheng Xiu subconsciously remember the treasure king who passed away twenty years ago, Cangyun.

Ah, another day of nostalgia for the Treasure King.

The matter of attacking Fengbei needs to be considered in the long run.

Looking away from [Post Station Fengbei], Zheng Xiu resisted the urge to poke at the contrasting cute face, waved his hand, and summoned a yellowed paper roll.

His message was recorded on the scroll of paper.
