Text Chapter 106 Alone in danger
"What? These jewels are really ill-gotten gains?" Li Zhen didn't know what the general's words meant.
"How can these official silvers engraved with the orders of heaven be made up of by us?" said the fat-headed general coldly.
"What does it mean to be destined by heaven, why can't you spend it?" Li Zhen didn't understand what the mystery of these four words was engraved with these official silver.
"Haha......" The general, along with the officers and soldiers present, were all amused by Li Zhen's words.
"Engraved with gold and silver for the funeral of the dead emperor. Long Xiao couldn't help laughing, he saw that Li Zhen didn't know anything, so he walked up to him and whispered, lest he make any more jokes.
"What??" Li Zhen was so shocked by Long Xiao's words that he screamed directly, and he said with a frightened face.
"No wonder the shopkeeper will look at the ingot of gold for a long time and secretly report to the official, these basic common sense, I don't know anything, it's really ridiculous and generous. Li Zhen secretly pondered this matter in his heart, and smiled helplessly.
This matter is too strange, my newlywed joy, I thought it would be five boxes of congratulatory gifts sent by someone, but in a blink of an eye, it became the old emperor's funeral silver, which is really angry and hateful, the key is that the source of these riches is unknown, and it has caused the government, and now people have stolen goods, and Li Zhen can't tell even if he has a hundred mouths.
"What else do you have to say now?" said the general, slowly.
"This ...... Official, this matter is really framed by someone, you see that this brother of mine doesn't even know that these are for funeral purposes, how can he go to rob the emperor's tomb?" Long Xiao saw that this general was not a reasonable lord, but he still wanted to do his last part, hoping to turn the war into a jade silk.
"Don't sing and harmonize in front of me, you dare to spend this silver ordered by the sky, it's really a heinous crime, now the imperial tomb has been stolen, the dirty silver has been found, the soldiers and horses of the Nine Gates are on the way, you let me let you go? Isn't this the life of my family?" The general's words are not unreasonable, the stakes are very high, and there are many people at the scene, Li Zhen is his own father, presumably this general will not dare to let him go.
"It seems that someone must want to put us to death in this matter, the enemy is dark and I am clear, we can only be beaten passively now, why don't we go first?" Long Xiao asked quietly.
"Don't say anything, this matter was done by me Li Zhen alone, and it has nothing to do with everyone here, I am willing to go back to the Fa with you, if you insist on being innocent, don't blame me for being unkind!" Li Zhen suddenly shouted in a loud voice, and smashed the entire table with the palm of his right hand.
"Okay! Come on, everyone will get the stolen goods, and take this person named Li Zhen back to the prison for trial!" "The fat-headed general is also a person who is proficient in martial arts, he saw that Li Zhen has a unique skill, this palm is powerful, and the movements are clean and neat, if you don't listen to him, you will definitely lose both, and you will also cheapen the officers and soldiers of the other eight doors who came from behind, and he still wants to monopolize the first work of arresting the important criminals of the imperial court!
"Childe!"
"Brother Zhen!"
Long Xiao and Ziyan hurriedly stepped forward to persuade them, with the strength of Li Zhen and Long Xiao, it was easy to retreat with Ziyan and Lao Rui in front of these minions, and the two of them didn't understand why Li Zhen had to go to the Heavenly Prison to ambush the Fa.
"Okay! I've made up my mind! You can just wait for news from me here!" Li Zhen nodded vigorously, from his determined eyes, Long Xiao knew that no one could persuade him, but this time he really didn't understand what kind of medicine was sold in Li Zhen's gourd.
Although Ziyan trusts Li Zhen very much, he has never fought unprepared battles, but this time is different from the past, this is the prison that wants to enter the imperial court, and it is difficult for the entire imperial court to keep a master in Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon, Li Zhen is afraid that it will be easy to get in and it will be even more difficult to get out.
Li Zhen smiled at Ziyan before leaving, that confidence and calmness made Ziyan feel a little better, but her heart was still up and down, and her eyelids kept jumping, and she always had a bad premonition.
"Ziyan, don't worry, Li Zhen will not be in trouble when he enters the prison this time, such a big case will not be concluded so quickly!" Long Xiao saw that the officers and soldiers who escorted Li Zhen left Liufeng Tower, he hurriedly comforted Ziyan, afraid that she would not be able to think about it, and would do something stupid again.
"Lord Wang, I'm fine! I believe that Brother Zhen will be safe and sound!" Ziyan nodded with a smile, she didn't want Long Xiao to worry too much about herself, she could let him divide his energy and think about countermeasures, as for the anxiety and apprehension in her heart, only she slowly adjusted.
"Well, it's okay! You stay here for now, don't go anywhere, I'll go out and find out the news. After Long Xiao finished speaking, he left in a hurry, he was completely dazed by Li Zhen's series of things.
"That's right! Ziyan After a while, you and Lao Rui will go to the underground vault to temporarily avoid the limelight, I told Lao Rui, let him take good care of you, Li Zhen's matter is on me. Long Xiao came back not long after leaving, he was afraid that the recent incident in Liufeng Tower would attract people from the three sects and nine ranks, so he decided to close the door for a few days.
"Got it, Lord Wang, you go and get busy with you!" Ziyan was sitting on the chair in a daze when she saw Long Xiao coming back, secretly wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes and stood up, lowered her head and stroked the corners of her clothes, Ziyan encountered this kind of thing when a girl's family was newly married, no matter how strong she was, she couldn't bear this kind of blow in her heart.
Ziyan and Lao Rui walked into the underground dark pavilion in this Liufeng Building, the ground area of this Liufeng Building is not large, the underground is extraordinarily spacious, and the mechanism is ingenious, Ziyan is like walking into a labyrinth, if it is not led by Lao Rui, it is really going to get lost.
"Purple Smoke Girl, you first live in this guest room if you are wronged, shake the brass bell on the door if there is anything, and I will appear. Lao Rui led Ziyan into a spacious guest room, this house was more than twice as large as the room they lived in upstairs, and the daily necessities in the house were all available, Ziyan couldn't find anything that was not available here for a while, and she secretly admired Long Xiao for being thoughtful.
"Thank you, Senior Rui, you can get busy!" Ziyan bowed slightly to show gratitude.
After Lao Rui left, Ziyan took a closer look at this guest room, although the ingenious layout and thoughtful arrangements made Ziyan temporarily dazzled, but soon she fell into the worry of Li Zhen again, where can she put her mind to live here in peace!
An afternoon has passed, it is already dark outside, Ziyan does not know the time here, and it is really like a whole year has passed in just one afternoon.
"Bang bang bang!" a sharp knock on the door woke Ziyan from her musings.
She hurried to open the door.
"Lord, are you back?, how is the news?" Ziyan opened the door and saw Long Xiao returning with a tired face, hurriedly let him into the house, and asked eagerly.
"Hey, don't mention it, this kid Li Zhen is in big trouble this time. Long Xiao walked into the room in a hurry, sat on a chair, and kept shaking his head and sighing.
"What's going on, Lord, what do you mean?" Ziyan looked even more anxious when she heard Long Xiao come in, and she was too eager to pay attention to the tone in which she spoke to Long Xiao.
"Li Zhen, this person, his mind is full of mush! He also dares to take the crime of stealing the emperor's tomb on himself, he really doesn't know the seriousness of this matter!" Long Xiao poured himself a cup of tea and drank it all in one gulp.
"How will the crime of robbing the emperor's tomb be judged?" Ziyan saw that Long Xiao was extremely thirsty, and then remembered that he cared too much about Li Zhen and was a little rude, so he hurriedly poured another glass of water into Long Xiao's tea bowl.
"Our current emperor is a filial son, the old emperor has been buried for ten years, so far the coffin has not been buried, the emperor guards the spirit every day, and sends people to take turns to chant the scriptures, just choose the old emperor's ten thousand years of auspicious soil for five years, and the construction of the underground palace is another five years, recently his coffin was buried, and the soil has not been sealed for a month, and someone has dug up the imperial tomb and stole the silver for the old emperor's funeral! Do you say that this court can not pay attention to it? Can the saint not be angry today? In my opinion, it may be difficult for Li Zhen to retreat with his whole body. Long Xiao had already said the seriousness of the matter to the minimum, and he was afraid that Ziyan would not be able to stand it if he said too much.
"Lord Wang! I also guessed these, not to mention the current emperor, even us ordinary people, the matter of digging the ancestral grave is a feud, Brother Zhen dared to take this charge this time, I think he also knows the stakes, you don't have to worry about me, I believe Brother Zhen will be fine." After listening to Long Xiao's words, Ziyan's heart was already broken, but she still had the last glimmer of hope, which was a gambler's sense of trust in Li Zhen.
"But you don't have to worry too much, I heard that the emperor has sent someone to strictly guard Li Zhen, and the emperor is going to try him personally this time! And the court has already issued a decree, no one can visit before the emperor is tried, it's anyone! At least for now, I feel that Li Zhen is safe. After Long Xiao said these words, he stood up and inspected the dark pavilion.
"Well, it seems that the emperor attaches great importance to this matter, if Brother Zhen sees the emperor to explain the reason for the matter, I don't think the emperor will kill innocent people indiscriminately!" Ziyan looked forward to the good side of things, and his face showed a rare lightness, as if Li Zhen had been acquitted.
"That's right, I'll just say that Li Zhen will be fine, you see that you are nervous, besides, even if the emperor really wants to execute Li Zhen, I will do my best to protect his safety!" Long Xiao raised his head and looked at Ziyan, he was also a lot relieved by Ziyan's words, saying that Li Zhen was not nervous, it was fake, Long Xiao was more concerned about Li Zhen's safety than anyone else, just like he said, if Li Zhen really had something, he would also desperately rescue him, the key is that now they don't know anything about Li Zhen's thoughts, and rash action may ruin Li Zhen's plan.
