'Da da——', the leather boots fell on the green bricks, making a crisp sound, and circulated in the silent corridor.A figure was looming, and footsteps sounded rhythmically in the dark surroundings.Zhang Nan put on his cloak and walked forward at a leisurely pace, with a frosty expression on his face.

After a while, the surrounding gloom dissipated, and the light shone into the corridor.Zhang Nan walked out slowly, and a group of people hurriedly knelt down to salute.Zhang Nan said: "Get up."

Sun Lu got up and said with a smile: "Your Highness, Your Majesty ordered Feng Jing to be handed over to you. How do you think about dealing with him? The servant can go back and do a job."

Zhang Nan nodded, his face was expressionless: "Father has returned to the palace?"

"Your Majesty has returned to the palace." Sun Lu glanced at Feng Jing, and said, "Your Majesty said, it is up to you to decide whether to kill or cut Feng Jing."

Feng Jing knelt on the ground, his potbellied body bent like a ball.He raised his head secretly, and his eyes just met Sun Lu.He quickly lowered his head, and his body also fell down.He was tortured before, His Royal Highness the Third Prince should calm down.Pei Ziqi was a suspect in the murder of the First Prince, and he interrogated only one suspect.

"I have no research on torture, Eunuch Sun, you can figure it out." Zhang Nan paused, and then said: "Ziqi just fell asleep, so please move quietly, so as not to wake him up."

Feng Jing stared at Zhang Nan, no longer caring about his dignity, and crawled to Zhang Nan.With a trembling voice, he said: "Your Highness, Pei Ziqi is the murderer who killed the eldest prince. You must not be fooled by him. The humble job is to arrest and interrogate him according to His Majesty's order. There is no such thing as favoritism."

Xu Shengao immediately stepped forward, cupped his hands and said, "Your Highness, Feng Jing is the father of the eldest prince's side concubine Feng Yao. According to the laws of the Jin Dynasty, he has no right to try this case. My minister once advised Mr. Feng not to try this case." However, he refused to listen to Weichen's advice, arbitrarily interrogated Mr. Pei and tried to beat him up. Weichen already has personal and physical evidence. If His Highness is afraid of wronging him, Weichen is willing to present incriminating evidence at any time..."

"Shut up!" Feng Jing turned his head and shouted loudly, his greasy face trembling slightly: "Xu Shengao, I have no grievances with you, why did you frame me?" He turned his head and said hastily: "Your Highness , you have to believe me, I am really following orders."

Zhang Nan nodded and interrupted Feng Jing: "Very good." He turned his head and said to Sun Lu: "Eunuch Sun, have you heard what Mr. Xu said? Use torture." After he finished speaking, he turned and left. The figure merged into the darkness...

Feng Jing looked at the disappearing figure, turned his head hastily, and said, "Eunuch Sun, let me see His Majesty! I am loyal to His Majesty, how could I bend the law for personal gain? Pei Ziqi is really the murderer who killed the eldest prince!"

Sun Lu disappeared the smile on his face, leaned down and said, "Master Feng, of course the Zajia believes in you. But it is useless for the Zajia to believe you. This is an order from the superior to deal with you." He straightened up and called He beckoned and said, "Come here, tie up Feng Jing."

Feng Jing's face suddenly turned gray, like someone who had been dead for a long time.He roared loudly: "Eunuch Sun, the heavens can learn from me. I have a loyal heart to His Majesty. You must not kill a good minister by mistake..."

Sun Lu immediately changed his face, and said sharply: "Gag him quickly, don't let him yell and disturb Mr. Pei to rest."

A jailer hurriedly took a dirty rag, squeezed Feng Jing's jaw, and stuffed it into his mouth.Feng Jing stared wide-eyed, "Mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm" still refused to give up.The fat body trembled desperately, as if trying to break free from the rope on his body.

Sun Lu smiled coldly: "Lord Feng, the Zajia knows that you are loyal to His Majesty. Don't worry, the Zajia will fulfill your loyalty. The oil lamp will last for thousands of years, and it is a good funeral. It is also your blessing that you can accompany His Majesty, and it can be regarded as fulfilling your loyalty."

Feng Jing's pupils were dilated, his eyes filled with fear.He shook his head desperately, shaking the flesh on his face back and forth.

Holding a dagger, a jailer walked slowly towards Feng Jing.Xu Shengao took a look and trembled uncontrollably.He cupped his hands and said, "Eunuch Sun, Your Majesty ordered me to change a cell for Mr. Pei. Look..."

Sun Lu smiled and said: "Master Xu has something to do, just leave first. You don't have to stay here with the miscellaneous family, as long as there are miscellaneous family here."

Xu Shengao thanked him with a smile, said a few words of flattery, and hurried away...

*******

The sun was rising, and the gray sky washed away the color, revealing a light blue.The sun shone obliquely through the atrium window, and fell into the cell warmly.In the cell, a mahogany canopy bed was placed against the wall, with a red sandalwood Eight Immortals table on one side, and a mahogany cabinet and mirror stand on the other side.

A slender figure lay on the bed, blinking his eyes with a look of despair.Pei Ziqi said: "System, I woke up, but I still don't remember anything."

The system sighed and said, "From your face, I can read the breath of despair."

Pei Ziqi sat up and said, "This won't work. Luo Di's patience is limited. If I can't remember it all the time, how can I lie to him?"

The system thought for a while, and suggested: "Why don't you try a strong sleeping pill, it can make you sleepy for several days, maybe you can remember something."

Pei Ziqi was stunned for a moment, and put his hands on his stomach: "Will it affect the child?"

The system said: "This medicine has no effect on the child. What will affect you is that you will be unconscious for a few days. But I have already upgraded. Even if you are in a coma for a month, it will not affect the baby anymore."

Pei Ziqi felt relieved: "Give me the medicine, I'll try it." As soon as the words fell, a pill was added to the palm of his hand.He swallowed the pill without hesitation and asked, "System, how long will it take for this medicine to take effect?"

The system truthfully said: "I don't know. The effect of the medicine depends on the individual, some for a few hours, some for several days."

Pei Ziqi: "..."

At that time, Sun Hancheng walked in with a knife.He looked around and said, "Your cell is almost as big as the inn, are you here to go to prison?"

Pei Ziqi looked at him upon hearing the sound, and said with a smile, "Why are you willing to come and see me today?"

Sun Hancheng put down his knife and sat down slowly: "Master Pei, you are a brother, and I am a man. How dare I come to see you every day? I came to see you today because I took the time."

Pei Ziqi was not happy, and said to the point: "Look at what you said, didn't you know that I was a brother before?"

Sun Hancheng fell silent, and then said after a while: "In the past, the third prince didn't watch over you every day. I wanted to come to see you. If I am on duty today, and the third prince is not here, I will come to see you right away." .”

Pei Ziqi glanced at him, and said with a smile, "Just tell me, what do you want to come to me today? If you let me make up your mind, that's easy to say. If you let me help, the mud bodhisattva will cross the river—it's hard to protect yourself."

Sun Hancheng raised his eyebrows and said, "Why can't I talk to you?" He looked around and said in a low voice, "Feng Jing is dead, do you know?"

Pei Ziqi was stunned, he opened his mouth wide and remained silent for a while.After a while, he said: "Feng Jing died? When did it happen? How did he die?"

"The one who died last evening was ordered by the third prince." Sun Hancheng paused, "Why, he didn't tell you? As for how he died, you should not know."

"Yesterday evening, Zhang Nan went out for a while. I was sleepy at the time, so I didn't ask him what he was doing. When I woke up, he had already returned." Pei Ziqi frowned, and said, "Feng Jing Did word of his death spread? Does Feng Yao know?"

Sun Hancheng shook his head and said, "Not yet. I am worried now, if Feng Yao finds out that Feng Jing died because of you, will he become angry and bite you back? After all, you sent her to the eldest prince's mansion. It can't be cleaned."

Pei Ziqi sneered, and said sarcastically: "If she dares to bite me back, I will thank her."

Sun Hancheng's eyes lit up, and he said with a smile, "You have a way to get out of prison?"

Pei Ziqi nodded but didn't go into details. He changed the subject and said, "Hancheng, do you know that Aunt Chao Xia, the queen's personal maid, is where she is now?"

This Aunt Chaoxia was the one who served her personally when she beat the queen into the palace.It can be said that she is the one who knows the queen best, even Zhang Nan grew up under her watch.

Sun Hancheng was stunned for a moment, and asked in confusion: "Why did you suddenly ask her?" Then he said: "I don't know much. Back then, after the Queen Mother passed away, Aunt Xia was begged by the Queen Mother. The strange thing is, After Aunt Chao Xia was begged by the Queen Mother, no one saw her again. When the Third Prince returned to Beijing, he begged the Queen Mother to meet Aunt Chao Xia. The two met, but only once. Aunt Chaoxia left without saying anything." At the end, he added: "I just heard this, you can ask His Royal Highness the Third Prince for details."

Pei Ziqi was stunned for a moment, then smiled and said: "The queen mother is an interesting person. The late emperor died, and she took the late emperor's personal eunuch. The empress died, and she asked the empress's personal maid. It seems that I want to see It's impossible to face Aunt Xia."

"As long as the kung fu deep iron rod is ground into a needle." Sun Hancheng joked: "You want to see Aunt Chao Xia. When you are released from prison, let His Royal Highness the Third Prince take you to see her, or it will be over."

"Stop talking, you know what I want to see her. Aunt Chao Xia won't even say anything to Zhang Nan, so she will say something to me." Pei Ziqi stood up and sat next to Sun Hancheng: "She doesn't want to tell me, even if Forcing her to speak is also a lie. What is the difference between seeing and not seeing?" He said again: "Compared to this, I have one thing to ask you now."

Sun Hancheng raised his hands together, sighed and said, "I am indeed a fat sheep delivered to your door. Tell me, and I will slaughter it for you."

"The child in Feng Yao's stomach is indeed not the eldest prince's, but Chu Pei's son." Pei Ziqi sneered and said, "I reminded Feng Yao to kill Chu Pei to avoid future troubles. But her wife Zhiren, only broke his legs, making him paralyzed from now on. If Feng Yao dares to bite me back, I will let them bite dogs."

"During this time, you should pay more attention to Feng Yao. If Feng Yao makes any changes, you should immediately go to Chu Pei and tell him that Feng Yao broke his leg. You don't need to worry about the rest, I will let Xu Shengao go Do it." He smiled and said lightly, "You can rest assured and wait for me to get out of prison."
