There was a dead silence in the courtyard.

Chen Changsheng had seen Zhou Tong before, and more than once.

But this was the first time he really met Zhou Tong.

See the real Zhoutong.

He looked at Zhou Tong's pale cheeks, his lips as thin as knives, and his blood-like red official robe, and felt an unimaginable terrifying aura, and the smell of blood became stronger and stronger, as if it were real.

His gaze finally fell on Zhou Tong's hand.

The hands were very slender, the nails were cleanly repaired, there was not a trace of dirt to be found, and there was no blood.

But he knew that these hands had killed many Chen royal family and officials loyal to the royal family, and he didn't know how many people's eyes and hearts had been gouged out alive.

Chen Changsheng felt that his heartbeat was getting faster and faster, and then suddenly a thought came to him, Zhou Tong's hands were very suitable for holding a sword.

So he replied, "Su Li's predecessor also taught me swords on the road. ”

The sword is used to kill, and the words are like the sword, and it is the opponent's power that is broken.

Chen Changsheng didn't understand this, but he naturally responded.

On the way back to the south for tens of thousands of miles, the things that Su Li taught him have always remained in his body and kept playing a role.

Tang Thirty-six and Xuanyuan woke up, their faces vigilant.

Zhou Tong smiled silently.

The remnants of the begonia trees fell one after another, and a few petals fell on Chen Changsheng's shoulders.

The gloomy coercion in the small courtyard suddenly disappeared, and the strong smell of blood disappeared nowhere, leaving only a faint fragrance of flowers.

No one spoke.

After a while, Zhou Tong looked at Chen Changsheng and said, "If you don't greet this official, you are rude." ”

It was quiet, and when Chen Changsheng was still thinking about how to deal with it, Tang Thirty-six, who had been silent, suddenly spoke: "What is your identity, what status?"

When he asked this, he stared into Zhou Tong's eyes like staring at a dangerous poisonous snake.

Zhou Tong squinted slightly, he didn't expect that this young master of the Tang family would have the courage to question himself, and ...... So rude.

Without waiting for him to answer, Tang Thirty-six continued: "Chen Changsheng is the dean of the National Education Academy, in terms of identity, in the state religion, he is only below the Pope, and your lordship is just the chief official of the Qing Officials Division, just a second-class person, even if the Holy Queen Niangniang is graceful and rewarded the lord with the position of a third-class duke, how can he be compared with the dean of my family? ”

Zhou Tong looked at Tang Thirty-six and said with a smile: "Even your father doesn't dare to talk to me like this." ”

Tang Thirty-six said: "So grandpa said that my father is not as good as me. ”

Zhou Tong said: "In this way, it should really be my seer?"

Tang Thirty-six's face did not have any emotional changes, not frivolous, not proud, not unexpected, just calm and focused to the extreme, and said, "Of course." ”

Zhou Tong raised his eyebrows and said, "In this way, it should be you first." ”

Tang Thirty-six said: "Xuanyuan and I are students, so let's go with us. ”

Zhou Tong said: "With whom?"

Tang Thirty-six said: "Follow the dean." ”

"I'm the dean. Chen Changsheng finally caught up with the rhythm of these two people, and introduced himself very formally: "I am Chen Changsheng, the dean of the National Education College. ”

Zhou Tong was silent for a long time, and then gently tidied up his official robe.

The red official robe, among the begonia flowers, is particularly eye-catching.

Then, he waved his hands, saluted, and asked each other.

"I don't know what Dean Chen is doing when he comes here today?"

"The Woo Sleeve is a student of the Anglican Academy. ”

Chen Changsheng looked at him and said, "I'll pick him up." ”

The small courtyard is quiet and quiet, and the yamen of the Qing Officials is already heavily guarded, and countless people have already come outside the North Soldier Carriage Alley.

The whole of Kyoto is in a state of tension.

Everyone knew what Chen Changsheng came to see Zhou Tong for today.

But probably no one could have imagined that Chen Changsheng would put forward his request so calmly and naturally.

Because he has already determined his identity, he is the dean of the Anglican Academy, and he is a student of the Anglican Academy, and it is natural for the dean to care about his students.

It was so natural that even Zhou Tong sighed, wondering how much Su Li had taught this young man by that monster?

Then he smiled and said: "According to the requirements of the imperial court, I will put the husband in prison, if I want to release him, Dean Chen needs the will of the Holy Empress Niangniang, or the final document of Dali Temple and the Criminal Department." ”

Since the appearance of the Yamen of the Qing Officials, Dali Temple and the Criminal Department have become decorations, or become vassals of the Qing Officials.

As long as Zhou Tong didn't nod, no case between Dali Temple and the Criminal Department could be concluded.

"I've been reading the Tibetan Tao since I was a child. Chen Changsheng said suddenly.

Tang Thirty-six and Xuanyuan Po glanced at him, thinking why they were talking about this at this time?

Zhou informed him that he still had something to say and waited quietly.

Chen Changsheng looked at him and continued: "I have confirmed that the Zhou Yuan case was taken over directly from the palace, and the Criminal Department and Dali Temple did not file the case at all. ”

Zhou Tong said: "So what?"

Chen Changsheng said: "I have read through the Daozang, and I have memorized the laws of the Great Zhou Dynasty very well, and I am very sure that there is no law that supports the continued imprisonment of the Lord. ”

Zhou Tong looked at him and smiled silently.

Chen Changsheng said: "Please let me go." ”

Zhou Tong took out a snow-white handkerchief from his sleeve and gently wiped the corners of his lips, his movements were very elegant, but his words were very sarcastic.

"Our future Pope is so impatient that one has to worry about the future of the state religion. ”

I don't know if it's because of Zhou Tong's actions, or because of this sentence, Tang Thirty-six's brows furrowed.

"I promised the Bishop to wait for two more days, but ......" Chen Changsheng was silent for a while and continued: "He's dead, so I don't have to wait any longer. ”

Zhou Tong looked at him and said calmly: "I think you forgot one thing, the crime of folding your sleeves is collusion with the demon clan, as long as you have this crime, you can lock him up for as long as I want." ”

"The adults seem to have forgotten one thing, and the three people who were accused of colluding with the demons in the Zhou Garden, folded their sleeves and seven rooms...... And me. ”

Chen Changsheng looked at him and said seriously: "If the adults really think that folding sleeves will collude with the demon clan, then the first thing you need to do now is to put me in prison, if not, then you should let him go." ”

The courtyard became extremely quiet, even dead silent.

Only the sound of falling flowers and breathing can be heard.

This is the choice question he left for Zhou Tong - let go of the folded sleeves, or, arrest him too.

Zhou Tong's eyes narrowed slowly, gradually turning into willow leaves, and it seemed to be the willow leaf knife he was best at.

His voice drifted from between his thin lips, and it was just as cold.

"You...... Is this a threat to the officer?"

......

......

(After a day of traveling, I just sat down at this time, and I was almost hungry like a wisp of ghost in prison.) ）
