Prime Minister's Mansion • Study

The afternoon sun is enough, through the slightly open window in the room to reflect the dappled and fragmented sunlight, a pot of good West Lake Longjing, slowly steaming, the study in the tea fragrance overflowing.

Shen Zhiping sat quietly on the carved mahogany stool in front of the round table, sipping tea carefully, this was the first time to enjoy tea in the sun after escaping from the fire of Hengxiang Inn, but what made him distressed was that they were now 'dead people', and for a long time in the future, I am afraid that it would be difficult to have the opportunity to enjoy tea like this again. Shen Zhiping thought and couldn't help but smile bitterly.

"Let the Shen Hall Master wait for a long time. A gentle but majestic voice sounded behind him. Wan Ziyu was dressed in a gorgeous regular dress and walked in slowly.

Shen Zhiping put down the teacup in his hand, got up to greet him, and bowed, "Meet the Prime Minister." ”

Wan Ziyu made a gesture of 'please', "Hall Master Shen doesn't have to be polite, please sit down!"

The two sat down, Shen Zhiping picked up the teapot and poured hot tea for Wan Ziyu, "Thank you Prime Minister for saving your life, if it weren't for you, I'm afraid we would all be buried in the fire." ”

Wan Ziyu looked at Shen Zhiping carefully, Shen Zhiping's right hand was still hanging high, and his face was a little pale, Wan Ziyu took a sip of the teacup, and in the hot air, he seemed to see Shen Zhiping's unfazed expression on the day he first arrived at the house, and suddenly felt that the Hengshan faction was really not an ordinary person.

Wan Ziyu looked inexplicable, "It's really a bit aggrieved to let the famous Hall Master Shen be a 'dead man' like this." ”

Shen Zhiping took advantage of the gap between the teacups and looked at Wan Ziyu, Wan Ziyu's seemingly gentle and concerned eyes, but it was difficult to hide his majestic look, the convincing majesty revealed from his bones, what kind of person was Shen Zhiping? How could he not understand the meaning of Wan Ziyu's words, and then smiled faintly, "What does the Prime Minister need us 'dead people' to do?"

A smile appeared on Wan Ziyu's face, "Hall Master Shen is really happy, although I am in the position of prime minister, but the height is unbearable, and it is not as good as you to let go of your hands and feet." ”

Shen Zhiping was slightly stunned, and his eyes suddenly deepened, "My lord wants us to do some... Things that are inconvenient for adults, such as some things involved in Hongyuan Villa?"

Shen Zhiping said this very cleverly, Hongyuan Villa and the harem concubine Yu Shufei have a distant cousin relationship, in a certain relationship, it can be regarded as the faction of the king of Qingping, and Wan Ziyu is the father of the current queen, so it can also be regarded as the prince's faction. And the news I got before was also about King Qingping's conspiracy to rebel, and now I heard Wan Ziyu say this, I am afraid that I want them to verify some relevant evidence.

Wan Ziyu is in the position of prime minister, and he is afraid that he will be told the truth again, so now these 'dead people' are the most suitable candidates. But these words can't be said openly, but Hongyuan Villa is different, they secretly colluded with Lingye Palace, and it is understandable to throw them out to say something.

Wan Ziyu stared at Shen Zhiping for a long time, and suddenly laughed, "Hall Master Shen is really a person who understands. ”

Shen Zhiping seemed to smile, "Before we had an accident, we had actually been investigating the affairs of Hongyuan Villa, and their recent business has really been a bit big, so it can be said that black and white are all eaten." Pull a hair and move the whole body, otherwise there would be no targeted poisoning at Hengxiang Inn. ”

Wan Ziyu squinted his eyes slightly, noncommittal, "What if the old man can provide some help to Hall Master Shen?"

Shen Zhiping's expression was awe-inspiring, and the hand holding the teacup was also slightly stunned, but after thinking about it for a moment, he quickly regained his composure, "This matter has always been investigated by my master and nephew, presumably the Shen Pavilion Lord of Mulin Pavilion has also reported it to the emperor." So for the specific follow-up plan, I will also ask him. ”

"That's fine. Wan Ziyu looked at the tea leaves floating in the teacup, and said, "This matter should also be counted as his family matter." I just don't know if his eyes are okay?"

Shen Zhiping's heart sank, since the group hid in the Prime Minister's Mansion, their injuries were all arranged by Wan Ziyu Lang Zhong to be responsible, including Li Zifeng's injury, it stands to reason that every time he is diagnosed, he will receive a reply, just said this, and people have to figure out the meaning of his words.

Thinking of this, Shen Zhiping smiled slightly, "Although the eyes are blind, the heart is not blind." ”

Wan Ziyu stared at Shen Zhiping for a long time, laughed, and then poured a cup of hot tea for Shen Zhiping again, "In this way, it won't be in vain for the old man's blood ginseng." ”

The secret room of the Prime Minister's Mansion

Shen Hongfei and Lingxi have been taking turns to take care of Li Zifeng, because they are still injured, so they are a little tired, and at this time the two are at the round table, resting with their heads on one hand.

Li Zifeng woke up from his slumber, almost without thinking about it, and his whole body entered the state of preparation again.

The tragic situation of the Hengxiang Inn before is still vivid, he was unconsciously poisoned, although he was prepared in advance, but the poison was still too powerful, and the pain in his eyes was uncontrollable.

The pain was dull and swollen, and the eyes looked as if they had been burned with a soldering iron, and there was nothing but severe pain.

He suddenly remembered something, so he opened his eyes and looked around, but all he saw was pitch black, accompanied by a sharp stinging pain, the wider his eyes opened, the more painful his eyes became, but why...... It's dark all around?

An ominous premonition surged in Li Zifeng's heart, he didn't expect how it could be so dark around here. Could it be ...... Isn't it dark around?

Li Zifeng's heart sank suddenly, and he touched his eyes with both hands, but he touched the cotton cloth wrapped around his eyes. The cotton cloth wrapped around his eyes, but he couldn't feel it, and now when he opened his eyes, all he saw was darkness.

"Brother Li!" Li Zifeng tilted his ears, only to hear the sound of noisy footsteps, and then Shen Hongfei's nervous voice came.

Shen Hongfei didn't sleep very well, and when he heard that there seemed to be movement on the bed, he woke up all of a sudden, and Lingxi also woke up with his movement. The two of them walked towards the bed together. At this time, Li Zifeng had already sat up.

Li Zifeng opened his mouth, not knowing what to say, and after a long time, he squeezed out a sentence from his throat, "My eyes...... What the hell is going on?"

Shen Hongfei and Lingxi glanced at each other, thought for a while and said softly, "There is nothing wrong with your eyes, it's just that we are in a secret room, and there is no light, so we ......"

As if to add credibility to his words, he smiled and whispered, "It's so dark around here, so you can't see what is... Normal. ”

The pain in his head also came from his eyes, Li Zifeng couldn't bear it anymore, and reached out to frantically uncover the cotton cloth wrapped around his eyes, "Since it's okay, why do you want to wrap my eyes again?!"

The action of untying the cotton cloth was really too rough, and his eyes hurt even more, a hot stinging pain, and streams of warm water flowed down one after another, and Li Zifeng's eyes were bleeding again!

"Brother Li, what are you doing here?" Shen Hongfei stomped his feet in annoyance, but he still didn't stretch out his hand to stop Li Zifeng, he was afraid that he would stimulate Li Zifeng and cause a second injury.

Li Zifeng desperately opened his eyes, stretched out his hands, spread his five fingers and put them in front of his eyes, trying to see something, but all he saw was pitch black, and he was instantly stunned.

But there was still a trace of expectation in his heart, Li Zifeng listened to the voice carefully, and then opened his eyes wide and looked in the direction where Shen Hongfei was, he was willing to believe that this place was really very dark, but the next moment, he was disappointed.

As far as the eye could see, there was only black, no outline, no shapeless black, endless black. Suddenly felt that the world was suddenly dark, Li Zifeng wanted to escape, but when he got out of bed, he tripped over the wooden pedal, and fell directly to the hard and cold bluestone slab ground, his knees touched the ground, and there was a heart-piercing pain, Shen Hongfei and Lingxi were caught off guard, and hurriedly went over to help.

Shen Hongfei grabbed Li Zifeng's arm, "What are you doing?!Calm down!"

Lingxi couldn't help but shed tears, "You calm down, everything will be fine." ”

Li Zifeng couldn't listen to anything, his brows frowned, and his voice became a little deeper, "You let go of me!"
