"Minister, Sima Guang, meet Your Highness."

Zhao Shi did not sit on the back of the horse, but hurriedly dismounted and supported Sima Guang: "Junshi, please get up, Junshi is busy with official business, so you don't have to come to greet you." ”

Sima Guang smiled bitterly: "Your Highness is benevolent, it's just that Your Highness is a king, and the minister is a minister, how can there be a king, and the minister does not welcome the gift, second, the minister is guilty, and His Royal Highness is not guilty, how can there be a guilty and not welcome the gift of innocence." ”

Saying,

Without waiting for Zhao Shi's reaction,

Sima Guang glanced back at the more than ten Taiyuan Mansion officials who came over, and then ...... More than ten people knelt down together, and Sima Guang hissed: "The ministers sit back and watch the world power greed cup out of the city, and commit suicide in defeat, and the ministers ...... Capital offense also. ”

bang

Saying,

He knocked on the ground.

And on Zhao Shi's side, Mo said that the arrest was about to be served, even Zhao Shi, and couldn't help but be stunned for a while, and then ...... Inevitably, there are some ...... Said gloomily: "What did you say? ”

Sima Guang lay on the ground upright, and said clearly: "After the arrival of the Shiquan in the state, he often drank heavily, and after drinking, he was noisy to go out of the city, to fight for His Royal Highness, to take back the lost fields, and these days in the Western Xia, there will always be soldiers to provoke, the day before yesterday, the minister did not notice for a while, and let him rush out with more than 100 soldiers, and then, the defeat returned, the minister was worried that something would happen again, so he hurried to go, but after all, it was a step too late, the kind of Shiquan felt guilty because of the defeat, and finally jumped down in front of the ancient plank road, Committed suicide. ”

airplanes

The back of Zhao Shi's head was numb for a moment, and then he reached out to hold the horse's back, and then asked calmly, "What about the corpse?" ”

"What kind of corpse are you asking?"

Zhou Tong had already jumped off the horse, and when he heard Zhao Shi's inquiry, he couldn't help but point at Sima Guang and scolded: "It must have been ruined by this dog official, Your Highness, you give the order!" As long as you give the order, you can make him regret being born in this world. ”

"Shut up."

Zhao Shi turned his head and scolded viciously, then looked down at Sima Guang and took a breath: "What about the corpse?" ”

"Not found."

Sima Guang smiled bitterly, he also knew that he was derelict in his duties this time.

"Didn't find it?"

And the people on Zhao Shi's side, don't say that Zhou Tong, who is more short-tempered, even Zhi Liang couldn't help but speak: "Didn't you already know that you committed suicide the day before yesterday?" Why haven't you found it today? ”

But

It's okay that Sima Guang's bald head is not raised, but several Wenchen behind Sima Guang also have a stomach full of resentment, and can't help but raise their heads and say: "First, there is an ancient plank road, if you go to see it at a glance, don't say a day or two, it's three or five days, even, three or five years, if you are not lucky, it is impossible to find the body, second, that kind of world power, just came to Taiyuan Mansion for three days like a person, three days later, either beat and scolded the soldiers and officials, or drunk and did not go out, Sima Tong sentenced several times to come to the door to persuade hard, were all turned away, What do you let us do? Watching day and night? ”

Even......

"Phew."

Ignoring Zhao Shi's presence, some officials scolded fiercely: "You deserve to die." ”

"What did you say?"

Although Zhou Tong is not a close friend of the seed world, but after all, he has also worked with the seed world, and both of them are the henchmen of His Royal Highness, it is inevitable that there are still some rabbits and foxes sad, even if he stared at the talking Wenchen, Zhao Shi did not stop, just looked at Sima Guang and said: "Mr. Sima, since this is the case, take us to the so-called ancient plank road to have a look!" ”

"Your Highness."

Before Sima Guang could speak, a chubby official who was about fifty years old spoke up and persuaded: "Your Highness is tired of traveling and tired day and night, why don't you rest for a few days and then go to investigate?" Moreover, I received a message from His Highness a few days ago, and I have already begun to prepare a banquet and food, so why not enjoy it. ”

Zhao Shi looked at him: "Your Excellency?" ”

"Don't dare to call your Excellency." The chubby official couldn't help but show joy on his face: "The minister is the prefect of Taiyuan Mansion, his surname is Han, his name is called, and the word is Changdu, His Royal Highness can call the minister to Changdu." ”

"Shut up."

Sima Guang glanced at the official coldly, the official was embarrassed for a moment, and then shrank aside, after all, Sima Guang was the general judgment of the entire state, Sima Guang sighed and said: "Since His Royal Highness wants to go, the minister does not dare not lead, but the ancient plank road is in disrepair and may be in danger, and the minister dares to ask His Highness to promise not to approach, otherwise, even if His Highness is guilty of capital crimes, the minister will never let His Highness go to the ancient plank road." ”

"Okay."

Zhao Shi's face was expressionless.

Half an hour later......

Ancient plank road.

Zhao Shi looked at a thin ancient road hanging above the abyss with some surprise, the ancient road was made of wooden planks, only three feet wide and narrow, and the cliffs protruded in some places, which could only make people bend over, or pass sideways, not to mention walking, just looking at it from a distance made people feel frightened, Zhao Shi was surprised...... How could anyone build such an ancient road under such conditions.

true

Fantastic.

"Your Highness."

Sima Guang stared at Zhao Shi's legs, for fear that Zhao Shi would take another step forward, and he was ready to hug Zhao Shi's thighs at any time, which explained: "At noon the day before yesterday (11 to 13 o'clock), General Chong Shiquan drank and went out of the city, and the minister did not know until Shen Shi (fifteen to seventeen o'clock), and then, when the minister came, General Chong Shiquan stood at the fourth corner in front, and the minister only had time to shout: The general can't, so he jumped down and only said one sentence: Shame on Your Highness." ”

Zhao Shi subconsciously took half a step forward......

"Your Highness."

Not only Sima Guang, Zheliang, Zhou Tong, and even those officials who Zhao Shi may not even remember their names, they all took a step forward, and a few even grabbed the back of Zhao Shi's robe, Zhao Shi didn't really risk himself, he was an only son, he had an accident, it is hard to imagine how the lost and recovered Zhao Zhen and Queen Cao will be in pain, not to mention, he also has two wives, turning his head, Zhao Shi asked Zhou Tong: "Can I go over?" ”

Zhou Tong stood on the edge of the cliff and looked down, and affirmed: "Yes." ”

Zhao Shi nodded and asked people to find the rope, and then pulled Zhou Tong to go and whispered: "You will go over in a while, don't step on that place in a hurry, you have to observe a little bit carefully, and it is best to be able to dismantle the entire area for me......"

Speaking of which,

Zhao Shi turned his head: "Mr. Sima, where does the ancient plank road lead here, is it still useful?" ”

Sima Guang saw that Zhao Shi did not have the impulse to go over to check, as if he had breathed a sigh of relief, and when he heard this, he hurriedly replied: "It's useless, this ancient plank road was originally led to Yunding Mountain, and now Yunding Mountain has built a new mountain road, this plank road has been abandoned, and it has not been abandoned recently, it has been abandoned hundreds of years ago, so when Zhou Tong and Zhou Jun patrol go up, be careful." ”

"Hmph"

Zhou Tong snorted coldly, not accepting his kindness, Zhao Shi also snorted, which made Zhou Tong promise to be careful,

And then

The rope is coming,

Zhao Shi let more than ten people drag it, in fact, this rope is not very useful, it is parallel, not from top to bottom, however, it is better than nothing, and then Zhou Tong carefully grabbed the rotten railing and leaned over there, although it was the fourth corner, it was not impossible to see people, but, if it was facing the cliff, only half of the side face could be seen, and then Zhou Tong stopped in front of the fourth corner, turned around and shouted: "Your Highness, there seem to be some scratches on this." ”

Zhao Shi judged the approximate distance, about more than eighty meters in a straight line, and then nodded and said, "Very good, you observe it carefully, and then find a way to get it back for me along with that piece." Then, Zhao Shi also asked some catchers to start preparing the wood, and they stood on the edge and began to make it little by little, imitating the appearance of that piece.

"Okay."

Zhou Tong is really a master of the arts, he threw the rope on the back of the waist, threw it on a horizontal log above his head to fix, and then relied on the traction of the rope, a volley flew to the other side, and then took out a pen and paper, first according to Zhao Shi's instructions, he could see, write, and even draw down, and then began to dismantle from a distance to a near place little by little.

Zhao Shi calmly stood beside the ancient plank road and observed, observing scratches, water stains, and ......

Bell, bell, bell

Observing,

Zhao Shi suddenly heard the sound of gongs and drums coming from the bottom of the mountain, and then just as he was puzzled, the person named Han Yue knew the Taiyuan Mansion, so he cautiously came over: "Your Highness, although the case is important, you must also be careful of the body of the daughter!" Why don't you eat and drink some rice and noodles, and then do some consideration? ”

Zhao Shi glanced at him, crossed his somewhat chubby face and glanced at the delicacies sent by beating gongs and drums, which were also flattering, Zhao Shi obviously preferred the kind of Cheng Yi in Kaifeng Prison, however, Zhao Shi had just arrived, although he was the prince, there was no need to be in such a hurry to show his character, he just ordered: "Try not to be extravagant and wasteful in the future." Then he waved his hand and let people eat.

Han Yue breathed a sigh of relief: "No, no, if it weren't for His Royal Highness the Crown Prince coming all the way, the minister would never dare to be so extravagant." Then, he pushed away several officials of the Taiyuan Mansion and personally served tea and food to Zhao Shi.

Zhao Shi didn't refuse, but mainly talked to Sima Guang next to him: "Mr. Sima, something happened to the seed world, I don't know what about the catches he brought?" ”

Sima Guang obviously didn't like this way of eating very much, so he refused with a square face, just took a cup of tea, took a sip and said: "As soon as the general came, he dispersed those catchers to various armies and served as small banners, they should not know that the general had an accident, as for the few relatives that the general brought with him, they were all sent out to find a mountain and build a camp half a month ago, for some reason." ”

Zhao Shi nodded,

And then

Zhao Shi took a bite of the big chicken leg and looked at the mountains with an expressionless face: "Then, what about those soldiers who died in battle?" ”
