Xiang Zhong didn't understand what he meant by this, so he struggled to half the side, half supported his body, and said in surprise: "Of course not, could it be that the chief manager doesn't believe Xiang Zhong either?"

Shangguan Qing's face was slightly gloomy, "It's because I believe in you that I gave you a chance, you admit it now that it's still too late, I can still find a way to protect you, if you die to the end, no one will be able to save you, you have to think clearly!"

Although the shadow guard has always been in charge of him, it is impossible for him, as the head of the heavenly court, to only take care of the affairs of the shadow guard, and there is naturally someone below to help him share his worries, and the person who can help him share his worries is naturally the person he trusts, and this object is Xiang Zhong, so he really doesn't want something to happen to the person he trusts.

Who knew that Xiang Zhong seemed to have suffered a great humiliation, and he stiffened his neck and said sadly: "The people who supervise the right side can not trust me, does the chief manager also think that Xiang Zhong is lying?"

"Still want to hide it from me?" Shangguan Qing was also angry, and several pieces of jade smashed in front of him, "Then what is this, is it that the brothers below are in the collective pit for you?"

Xiang Zhong hurriedly took the jade to see what it was, and found that it was the confession of the brother below, and the more he looked at it, the more confused he became, and his face was at a loss.

"Do you really not know or are you pretending to be confused, do you have to call other people to confront you face-to-face, so that your leader can't get off the stage before you are willing?" Shangguan Qing gritted his teeth there, with a little bit of hatred for iron and steel.

Xiang Zhong was confused for a while, and suddenly realized "ah", raised his hand and patted his forehead, "I remember, that time the six of us were eating and drinking in the restaurant, and during the banquet, an old man took his granddaughter to sing, and I found that a splash of skin seemed to be eyeing the granddaughter of the old man." At the window of the restaurant, I saw the grandfather and grandson go out of the restaurant and into the alley diagonally opposite, and the splash followed in. I figured that the splash had bad intentions, so I left for a while. I also went out of the restaurant and into the alley. As I expected, I found that the splash was murderous, knocked down the old man, and forcibly kidnapped the girl who sang and was about to escape, and I took action to clean up the splash skin. It was such a trivial matter, not worth mentioning, and I didn't mention it to the brothers when I came back, and that's the way it was. ”

Shangguan Qing thought that he had some private matter that was inconvenient to see the light, but who knew that it was this kind of thing. Immediately said in a deep voice: "Then why didn't you say it earlier when you were monitoring the right part?"

Xiang Zhong said with a bitter face: "During the interrogation of the group of grandsons who ate people and did not spit out bones, they only mentioned the time and place to let me think about what I did, more than a thousand years have passed, who will remember this little thing?"

Shangguan Qing sneered: "Then why do you remember it now?"

Xiang Zhong: "Didn't the chief steward show me the confessions of the brothers, which detailed the situation at that time to help me recall, Xiang Zhong told the truth, and there was nothing to hide from the chief steward!"

Shangguan Qing: "I can believe you, but can others believe it? You didn't say anything about the torture you had endured in the right part of the supervisor before, and you still shouted that you were wronged. Can you find human and physical evidence to prove what you did?"

Xiang Zhong exclaimed: "More than a thousand years have passed, and even the bones of those ancestors and grandchildren who are only afraid of death have turned to ashes, where can I find witnesses?"

Shangguan Qing: "Who can believe you if you have no evidence? Let me tell you, Your Majesty has already inspected and personally checked your interrogation records. Do you think Your Majesty will believe such a reason now?"

Xiang Zhong: "Xiang Zhong's loyalty to His Majesty can be learned!"

Anyone can say this kind of thing, is it useful? Shangguan Qing shook his head.

There are some things he can't say to Xiang Zhong. Emperors have always been suspicious, and there are always places that cannot be seen and taken care of when one person dominates the world. Many things are what the people below say are what they are, so emperors since ancient times were afraid of being fooled. Therefore, whether it is the emperor in heaven or in the world, he is the same, he is suspicious by nature!

This is also the reason why he didn't forcibly block the shadow guard from being sent to the right part of the supervision in the first place, if he forcibly blocked it at that time, His Majesty would suspect his intentions, why didn't he let the shadow guard be checked? So he waited until the limelight passed a little, and when His Majesty calmed down, he found a suitable opportunity to state the pros and cons and begged His Majesty to release the shadow guard, but who would have thought that the shadow guard who thought he was clean would be found so many suspicious things by Gao Guan, who dared to guarantee that these suspicious things were all right?

Now he really feels that this matter is a bit tricky, the key is that you can't erase all these doubts to the point that Your Majesty doesn't suspect it at all, the matter is really troublesome, and you should have prevented Your Majesty from handing over people to the right department of the superintendent to investigate.

"Hey!" Shangguan Qing sighed, took the jade and turned away.

Xiang Zhong turned sideways vigorously and shouted, "Boss!"

"You should recuperate here first!" Shangguan Qing waved his hand and went out.

When he came to the courtyard and saw a group of men with blank eyes, Shangguan Qing's lips tightened, and he slowly said: "Beard line, Zuo Chang'an ......"

The names of twenty-six people were called in one breath, and the people who called the names all dragged their bodies that had not fully recovered and stood up, waiting for the chief manager to say something, but Shangguan Qing said in a surprising voice: "Come on, take them down and take care of them separately." ”

When the words fell, a group of heavenly generals rushed over, one for every four people, and walked out.

The Shadow Guards were shocked, someone stopped the door and prevented them from taking them away, and someone shouted, "Boss, why is this?"

Seeing that he dared to block the road, Shangguan Qing shouted in a deep voice: "What do you want to do, if you want to rebel, can't you rebel?"

Someone immediately shouted, "Boss, there must be an explanation for this, right?"

Shangguan Qing: "What to explain? Those who are clear are self-purifying, and those who are turbid are self-turbid, and there are doubts on their bodies, if there are no ghosts in their hearts, they will be openly and openly investigated." It's just quarantine and investigation, what are you afraid of? Don't let me get out of the way!"

It turns out that the matter is not over when it comes out of the right part of the supervision... The people blocking the gate slowly moved to get out of the way, but they all showed aggrieved expressions.

Twenty-six people were escorted away like this, and Shangguan Qing, who was walking at the back, stopped and looked back, looked at everyone, and looked in the direction of Xiang Zhong's temporary residence.

According to the list of interrogations on the right side of the superintendent, there were a total of twenty-seven suspicious people, and Xiang Zhong, the leader of the shadow guard, was also among them, but he only took twenty-six people and did not take Xiang Zhong away. It's not that he doesn't want to execute, but it's inconvenient to escort Xiang Zhong away, afraid that something will happen to the shadow guard, he believes that Xiang Zhong can understand the overall situation and help him stabilize the people of the shadow guard, if he really arrests the leader of the shadow guard, then the shadow guard will be completely chilled, the dragons have no leader, and once they get out of control, it will be troublesome.

Shangguan Qing left helplessly, and he still had to find a way to explain this to Lord Qing.

As soon as he left, a group of shadow guards immediately ran to Xiang Zhong's room, and there was a crowd inside the house, a crowd outside the house, gossiping about the twenty-six brothers being escorted away.

Xiang Zhong looked at his body lying on the couch and sighed: "Don't quarrel anymore, the chief manager must have his intentions in doing this." ”

But some people were angry, "Big brother, we are loyal to Your Majesty, sent us to the prison on the right side of the supervision for trial, we were arrested, tortured us, we also admit it, and now we have to isolate the brothers for investigation, so endlessly, how distrustful this is for us, what does Your Majesty want to do?"

Another person said sadly and indignantly: "The exercises we practice are destined to dare not have any different intentions, we have no family, no job, no power and no power, we are kept in captivity like pigs, we have nothing to say about what Your Majesty asks us to do, and the brothers are born and died for Your Majesty, and they are dedicated to their lives, but now they are treated like this, so that people are cold..."

"Shut up!" Xiang Zhong turned back and roared, "You're getting impatient, what nonsense?"

Although everyone shut up, the sadness and indignation on their faces could not be concealed......

In the Heavenly Palace, in the Sunset Garden, the green lord retired from the accompanying maids and walked in the courtyard alone.

Needless to say, he slowly walked to a green wall of vegetation, stroked a purple flower growing in the green wall, and asked lightly, "How is the investigation on the right side?"

There was no one around, and I didn't know who he was talking to.

However, there was someone on the other side of the green wall where no one could be seen, and the voice was small, and if there was any, I didn't know who was talking over there. "On the right side of the supervision, there is no deviation in the interrogation of the shadow guards in the prison from beginning to end, neither preferential treatment because they are shadow guards, nor material because they are shadow guards, they are all tried how they should be tried according to the old rules, there is nothing out of the ordinary, and there is nothing false in the confessions obtained. ”

The green lord bowed slightly, and asked again: "What's the situation on Shangguan's side, are all the suspicious people under control?"

A small voice replied on the other side of the green wall: "After Shangguan Qing went, he didn't immediately control the people, but retreated and stayed alone in the house with Xiang Zhong, the leader of the shadow guard, for a while, outsiders couldn't get close, and they didn't know what was going on inside. After Shangguan Qing came out of Xiang Zhong's house, he ordered 26 people to be taken away for quarantine and investigation, and as for Xiang Zhong, Shangguan Qing did not touch him. After Shangguan Qing left, a group of people rushed to Xiang Zhong's house and gossiped......"

I don't know how this mysterious person knew the news, but the reaction of the Shadow Guard brothers gathered in Xiang Zhong's house, as well as the dissatisfaction they vented, were retold by him with little leakage.

The green lord's slender eyes narrowed, a fierce color flashed in his eyes, and the purple flowers on the green wall were picked into his hands, and they were crushed directly into slag between his fingers, and without saying more, he turned around and left like a nobody.

On the ghost market, Miao Yi has nothing to do, the above asked him to come just to coordinate the people under his command, and he doesn't need to go out in person to keep an eye on the matter, plus the battle Ruyi is now a stranger to him, and he hardly meets him, Miao Yi is happy to be at ease, and handed over the matter of coordinating people to Yang Zhaoqing to deal with, and he takes Yan Xiu around the ghost market all day long.

Miao Yi, the Qinglou in the boundless Fengyue, also passed a few times every now and then, of course, not to patronize the Qinglou woman, but to patronize Yun Zhiqiu.

Yun Zhiqiu didn't stay in the ghost market for long, and left in less than a month.

A few days after Yun Zhiqiu left, Gu Duogui suddenly summoned Miao Yi and asked him to personally take some people to an auction house. (To be continued......)
