Seeing that he was obsessed with obsession, Yan Ruyu frowned and said, "Why are you so confident? It's too late to regret it now, at most you ran away with a few criminals, and His Majesty won't say anything about you. But..."

"OK OK."

Zhou Jinyan smiled and said, "Suzakumen, right? You pack up and go quickly to get a good seat. Then those people will come back one by one. You count them for me. There are 720 people in total."

The two women wanted to say more, but Zhou Jinyan said again: "This is an opportunity to witness a miracle, Linchuan, if you see Your Majesty, you'd better say something nice to Your Majesty, and it will be easier for me to ask for it."

After saying that, Zhou Jinyan turned around and went to the study on the other side.

Li Mengjiang sighed, and pulled Yan Ruyu who was still a little anxious, "Sister Ruyu, forget it, since my husband said so, then he must have the confidence to do it. Let's pack up and go to Zhuquemen."

"Jinyan really doesn't listen to persuasion at all." Yan Ruyu frowned.

Li Mengjiang smiled wryly, but said in his heart, but this way he can turn defeat into victory again and again, if he made such a big move today, if he really can all come back.Make a good publicity, father Longyan Dayue, there is not a chance that he will ask for Qujiangchi when the time comes.

I don't know why, Li Mengjiang actually had some expectations in his heart...

The sun was gradually rising, and at this time, in front of the Suzaku gate, after a lively one last year, it was lively again.

This time, everyone is not here to watch the competition, but to witness an almost impossible miracle.

Will all the 720 prisoners in Changan be able to return after they are released for the Chinese New Year?

In front of the Suzaku Gate, there was a huge crowd, and in the middle, there was a large open space, which was reserved for the three prisoners of 720 to stand.

The time is Si time (nine o'clock), and there are two hours left before the end of noon (twelve o'clock).

When Li Mengjiang and Yan Ruyu arrived in a carriage, they found that the gate of Suzaku was already crowded with people.

"Ruyu."

At this moment, a voice sounded behind the two of them.

Ah Da and the others immediately protected Yan Ruyu and Li Mengjiang, keeping them from approaching, and looked around vigilantly.

Li Mubai hurried forward, "Ruyu, why are you here?"

He didn't even look at Li Mengjiang, let alone salute the princess.

Chapter 319 It seems to be over

Li Mengjiang looked annoyed in his heart, but he couldn't say much.

"Come and join in the fun." Yan Ruyu replied indifferently.

"The king of Wei is over there." Li Mubai pointed to the other side, which was a slightly empty place, "Ruyu, let's go over there."

"No." Yan Ruyu refused, "I just happen to be right here."

Li Mubai wanted to persuade him again, but Ada gave him a hard look, so he had no choice but to leave embarrassingly.

"Linchuan."

Gao Yang didn't know when she brought a group of palace maids over. At this time, she had a smile on her face and seemed to be in a good mood.

"Gao Yang?"

Seeing his good sister, Lin Chuan pulled Yan Ruyu to greet her, and said with a smile, "Why are you here?"

"Fourth brother and big brother Zhou have a bet, let me see who will win."

As he spoke, he smiled at Yan Ruyu, "Sister Ruyu."

Yan Ruyu bowed back, and the three of them went to the position Gao Yang had already stood in.

After sitting down, Gao Yang said: "There are more than 700 people, and no one has arrived yet. I'm afraid Brother Zhou won't win so easily."

Yan Ruyu丨 looked strange: "Does Linchuan also think that Jinyan will win?"

Gao Yang smiled slightly, "Competitions and bets on everything, this kind of thing, every time Big Brother Zhou is not favored, but he will win the final victory every time."

"But this time there are a lot of death row inmates, and they will be executed when they come back. If they escape, there may be a chance of life." Between the sisters, Li Mengjiang said what was in his heart, but he was still not very optimistic.

"That's true," Yan Ruyu sighed, "Even if there are only 25 condemned prisoners, more than [-] of them can come back, which is quite remarkable, but human nature is unpredictable, there are always people who are greedy for life and afraid of death, and it's too easy to escape."

"Don't say such despondent words."

Gao Yang said with a smile: "Everyone is not optimistic, we must give brother Zhou some confidence, right?"

Li Mengjiang and Yan Ruyu looked at each other with smiles in their eyes.

If the two care about it, they will be in chaos. They can't change the result right now, and they can only choose to trust Zhou Jinyan.

In the city of Chang'an, at the feet of the emperor, there is no shortage of idlers.

Especially in the few days after the new year, the young masters and young ladies of each family will run wherever the excitement is.

Everyone wants to see the bet between King Wei and Zhou Jinyan.

Some want to witness miracles, and some want to see Zhou Jinyan's jokes.

An hour later, there were more and more people, the royal relatives, common people, all kinds of people crowded together.

I want to watch the rare excitement.

"There is still an hour, how many people are here?"

"They are all from Chang'an, and there are 56 people in total. This is far from more than 700 people."

"It's over, the pants that the son-in-law will lose next week are all gone."

Everyone burst into laughter, and there was still an hour, but only more than 50 people came, which gradually shook the confidence of some people who had expected a miracle to happen.

Li Tai, Li Mubai and others sat on one side, surrounded by guards.

Li Tai looked at the 60 to [-] people standing sparsely in the middle of the open space, and couldn't help laughing: "It seems that I was thinking too much, and Zhou Jinyan is sure to lose without making a move."

Li Mubai said softly: "Spending money to buy peace of mind, until the last moment, who knows who will win or lose? Although King Wei spent a hundred gold, it can make you feel at ease. It's not too much to think about."

Li Tai laughed out loud, 100 taels of gold ingots is really not much, just as Li Mubai said, it is enough to buy him peace of mind.

He enjoys the feeling of being in control.

Li Taidao: "When we win the victory, the development of Yanhu Lake will be put on the agenda. I should be in charge at that time. I plan to strongly recommend you as my deputy after the scientific examination. This is a good opportunity. "

He looked at Li Mubai, "It's just that you have to win the champion."

Li Mubai pursed his lips tightly, "Mubai, you must live up to King Wei's high expectations."

Li Tai nodded, "The development of Yanhu Lake is only a condition for my elder brother to celebrate his birthday, but it can't be counted as my condition. After winning, I should still win another condition. What do you think I should ask my father?"

Li Mubai was very envious in his heart, but he didn't dare to think too much, he paused, and said: "Whatever the king of Wei needs, maybe he can ask for something."

A typical nonsense, but it touched Li Tai's heart.

He was smiling and was about to speak when suddenly his eyes lit up and he said, "Father and elder brother are here."

......

Zhou Jinyan sat on the stone pier in the back garden, tapping his fingers on the table.

The parrot lay lazily on the stone table, its small eyes half-closed, "Don't knock, let me rest for a while."

"I'm anxious," Zhou Jin said, "I don't know if brother Xiahou has caught anyone."

"Don't worry," the parrot opened its eyes, "if such a miraculous thing comes out, if it can't catch anyone, we will drive him back to the palace."

Zhou Jinyan laughed and said, "If I can't catch anyone, I won't go, right?"

"I care about you."

The parrot moved its wings, rolled its eyes, and called, "Xiaobai is back."

Zhou Jinyan froze for a moment, then saw a bird fly over and land on the stone table.

Soon the bird flew away again and entered a nest not far away.

"How is it?" Zhou Jinyan asked hastily.

He is now very concerned about the situation at the Suzaku Gate.

There is less than an hour before the time, and I don't know how many people have gone, so everyone should have arrived, right?

The parrot got up, "Ahem, Dad, let me tell you some news that will surprise you."

"Hurry up." Zhou Jinyan couldn't wait.

"So far, there are 130 people in total."

"One person at 320?" Zhou Jinyan's eyes widened, "Did you hear me right?"

The parrot rolled his eyes, "It's 130 people, don't mishear, there shouldn't be any mistakes. During Xiaobai's return, there should be 200 people, but it will definitely not exceed [-]."

"Damn trough!"

Zhou Jinyan jumped up immediately, "I thought it was only one, but it turned out to be so much worse? These people really plan not to come back?"

He regretted letting Xiahou Zixuan take the "radar" away, and now he didn't know how many people were rushing to Zhuquemen.

"Don't worry, there is still an hour." The old god parrot was there.

"Yes, now we are not waiting for Xiahou Zixuan to come back, but to see how many people will come back."

"It's okay," the parrot said, "If you don't come back, I will catch them all. The crime will be aggravated, and they will all be sentenced to death."

The more the parrot talked, the more excited he became, "If a hundred fugitives escaped, how long would it take for you to catch them all? This is also a very remarkable feat?"

Zhou Jinyan rolled his eyes at it. In fact, what the parrot said was correct. In terms of benefits and reputation, the former can be regarded as God's will. The ones who got the most benefits were Li Shimin, the prince and others.

If there are many prisoners who have not come back at this time, if he catches them all back, he is afraid that he will benefit a lot and become famous in one fell swoop.

Chapter 320

It's just that Zhou Jinyan doesn't want such a benefit. It's better to just ask for a condition because he is exhausted and exhausted.

"Lang Jun, something is wrong."

Zhou Jinyan waited for a while, and Xiahou Zixuan rushed back.

The news is not so good.

"What about people?"

Zhou Jinyan looked at Xiahou Zixuan, and hurried to meet him.

"died."

Xiahou Zixuan said with a bitter face, "He was killed."

Zhou Jinyan was stunned and said, "Resisting arrest and being killed by you?"

Xiahou Zixuan shook his head, handed him a bag of gold, and explained: "On our way back, someone killed me. I don't know who killed me."

"what is the problem?"

When a person dies, there will be a lot of changes. Even if there are all the people at that time, the conditions may not be able to be raised.

After all, what we want is a miracle and what we want is auspiciousness.The death of a person brought too many changes to this matter.

"It's like this," Xia Hou Zixuan said: "At first, this man ran away, but I chased him halfway, and he suddenly ran back. We happened to bump into each other, and he was arrested for no reason. I was fine at that time." surprise."

"and then?"

"It turned out that this kid's conscience found out. He told me that someone gave him 100 taels of gold ingots and told him to run for his life and not go back. He wanted to run for his life, but he just ran and felt more and more that he was no good, so he ran away again return."

"It's a good thing," Zhou Jinyan said puzzled, "Why did he die later?"

Xiahou Zixuan continued: "When we came back, an arrow was shot out from somewhere, and this kid just died."

"Who killed it?"

"I have sent guards to chase after him. I didn't dare to waste time, so I brought back the boy's body and the 100 taels of gold ingots."

After finishing speaking, Xia Hou Zixuan's eyes lit up, "I don't know who paid the price, it's really generous."

Zhou Jinyan took out twelve taels of gold ingots and gave them to him, Xiahou Zixuan immediately took them with a smile, his mouth from ear to ear.
