Qin Ziyue stared into Qian Yanzhi's eyes, and suddenly said with a smile:

"Brother, isn't it good for him to plead guilty too quickly? This will save us a lot of trial work."

Qian Yanzhi was still frowning. Perhaps after staying with Huo Zheng for a long time, he also became a little sensitive and suspicious. He always felt that criminals like Chen Xuan confessed too quickly. Misleading.

But after all, he was the person next to He Hongyang. If his purpose of killing Fang Shaoqing was really to silence him, then was his purpose of killing Qian Yanzhi tonight really just to silence him?

Now that Qian Yanzhi thought about it carefully, he always felt that this Chen Xuan was fooled too quickly and confessed too quickly, as if to achieve a certain purpose.

And the system did not prompt that the task was completed, so it meant that there were other clues in this case that had not been uncovered.

Qian Yanzhi frowned and muttered:

"It's over, I have used both of my resurrection armors, if something happens again, don't I have to buy them again?"

"Brother, what did you say?" Qin Ziyue asked.

Qian Yanzhi quickly came back to his senses, and said with a smile: "I was thinking that it's time to take you home. Maybe I'll go to Honglu Temple tomorrow and pick you up early in the morning."

"Good." Qin Ziyue smiled and walked with Qian Yanzhi.

The nights in early winter are extremely cold, especially since it snowed yesterday, and the snow on the roofs has not yet melted away, making the chill even worse.

In the carriage returning to the palace, Qian Yanzhi bowed his head in silence, still unable to understand what Chen Xuan was doing.

Ordinary killers would definitely refuse to admit it if they were caught, after all, they were serving their masters.

But just because Qian Yanzhi had met him, Chen Xuan no longer defended himself, but told the whole story of his crimes, and even told why He Hongyang wanted to kill Fang Shaoqing, which is very strange.

At the west gate of the palace, Li Lin led people to stand guard in front of the palace gate early on, waiting for Qian Yanzhi's car to appear.

Now seeing the driver coming, Li Lin went up to greet him, saluted in front of the car and said:

"Mr. Shaoyuan, His Majesty ordered Mr. Shaoyuan to go back to the palace and go directly to the Ganlu Hall to wait for him."

Qian Yanzhi was stunned for a moment, and immediately responded, and after getting off the carriage, he followed Li Lin and the others to Ganlu Hall.

In the winter night, the imperial palace became more and more silent, the candles burning on the palace road were also very bright, the snow in the corners was slowly melting, and there were traces of water everywhere.

Qian Yanzhi frowned and looked sad, Li Lin naturally noticed it, but when he thought of Huo Zheng's order, he didn't say much, but just took Qian Yanzhi to the Ganlu Hall.

By the time Qian Yanzhi arrived, Huo Zheng had already dealt with today's government affairs and came back. He was warming the wine in the side hall, with a few dishes of side dishes in front of him. He beckoned:

"come over."

Qian Yanzhi walked over obediently, and sat down without saluting.

Huo Zheng was not surprised, anyway, he didn't care, he just picked up the jug and poured wine for Qian Yanzhi himself.

The house was very quiet, and Qian Yanzhi could hear the slight sound of the charcoal fire shattering.

Qian Yanzhi asked: "Why didn't Your Majesty ask me about today's case?"

Huo Zheng said, "I believe in you."

Qian Yanzhi looked sideways at him, hesitant to speak several times.

Huo Zheng stared at him sideways: "I think you didn't have a good dinner because of the case, so drink some wine to warm up now."

Qian Yanzhi held the wine glass, and put it down just as he was about to drink: "I ordered someone to bring back the assassin who assassinated Fang Shaoqing. Will His Majesty have an interrogation?"

Huo Zheng stared at Qian Yanzhi beside him, his eyes were calm, as if everything was under his control, he was not in a hurry or confused, he just calmly picked up vegetables for Qian Yanzhi and left it on the table On the plate in front of him:

"I have already reported it, I know."

Qian Yanzhi hurriedly held down his wrist, the corners of his mouth drooping, with an aggrieved expression on his face: "I just can't figure it out, how could this man plead guilty so quickly, since he can get rid of the threat for He Hongyang, why did he plead guilty again? How about dragging He Hongyang into the water? This matter is just like Wang Zhong who betrayed the leader of the Bureau of Internal Affairs, and I always feel a little weird."

Huo Zheng said, "Well, that's true."

Qian Yanzhi: "???"

Huo Zheng continued: "Because He Hongyang's teacher is the Zhengqing of Honglu Temple, and after Princess Cheng got married, He Hongyang recognized him as his godfather, and he was regarded as Zhen Aiqing's son-in-law."

Qian Yanzhi looked at Huo Zheng in shock: "Your Majesty, you know so well?"

Facing Qian Yanzhi's suspicion, Huo Zheng didn't need to explain. He is the king of a country, so naturally he should know everything about this world.

Huo Zheng held Qian Yanzhi over his wrist, and said softly, "Ayan, I don't trust many people, and you are one of them."

Qian Yanzhi nodded: "I know this, and I will not disappoint His Majesty's trust."

The corners of Huo Zheng's lips were slightly raised, and then he raised his head and drank the wine in the glass: "I heard that you caught the assassin because of your own danger."

Qian Yanzhi nodded: "Yeah." He also spent two resurrection armors, which was a big price.

Huo Zheng said: "After this case is over, I will reward you."

Qian Yanzhi stared at his side face in surprise, and when he heard the award, all the unhappiness he had had was swept away in an instant, and he just moved closer and said:

"What is your majesty's reward, can you reveal it?"

Huo Zheng stared at him, shaking his head slightly: "No."

Qian Yanzhi pouted, although he was dissatisfied, he was still looking forward to it.

Because he suddenly remembered that after the completion of the strategy mission, the wealth obtained by the player during the strategy process will eventually be turned into soft sister coins of equal value, and then deposited into the player's account.

So Qian Yanzhi liked Huo Zheng's reward very much, no wonder the reward would say that if the task is completed, the final reward will be more than one million.

The rewards given by Huo Zheng can add a lot of zeros to his account.

Seeing that Qian Yanzhi was happy, Huo Zheng's original worries in his heart dissipated a little, and he just stared at him calmly:

"Not allowed next time."

"?" Qian Yanzhi didn't understand, thought he was talking about rewards, and immediately felt a little uncomfortable.

Huo Zheng said: "Next time, don't put yourself in danger again. You must always remember that you belong to me, and your life is in my hands."

Qian Yanzhi was stunned for a moment, and then he raised his lips and smiled, feeling mixed feelings in his heart.

The happy thing is that Huo Zheng is thinking about the risk he took tonight, but the worrying thing is that Huo Zheng seems to just regard him as his appendage.

Huo Zheng stared at Qian Yanzhi's appearance, subconsciously reached out and stroked his head: "Jing Yuan came to ask today, he hasn't seen you for a long time, I promise him to rest tomorrow, you can take him out of the palace Walk."

Qian Yanzhi was a little surprised: "Can you take Jing Yuan out of the palace?"

Huo Zheng nodded: "Well, by the way, take him to Yang Xinhou's mansion, he often sends Jing Yuan's lonely copybook, take Jing Yuan to thank him tomorrow."

Qian Yanzhi looked at Huo Zheng blankly: "Why did I take him there?"

"Because by title, you are his father and he is your son." Huo Zheng said lightly.

Qian Yanzhi's face inexplicably felt a little hot: "Then...then do I have to make Jing Yuan change his mind, he always calls me brother?"

Huo Zheng stared sideways at Qian Yanzhi, as if thinking of something, gently rubbed the hand on the back of Qian Yanzhi's head: "Have you changed your mind yet?"

Qian Yanzhi: "I think if he calls me brother, I will be very young."

"Since that's the case," Huo Zheng withdrew his hand and sat beside Qian Yanzhi, "I seem to remember that you also called my adoptive father, so there is nothing wrong with him calling you brother."

"???" Qian Yanzhi was a little surprised, whether he was taken advantage of, "When did I call your adoptive father?"

Huo Zheng stared at him: "I saved the day you were injured."

"..." Qian Yanzhi seemed to remember it.

Then, what happened when he called foster father, he blushed immediately, and looked at Huo Zheng with some resentment:

"What's the use of saying that now."

"Come on, call the adoptive father again to listen." Huo Zheng said.

Of course Qian Yanzhi refused: "I don't want it."

Huo Zheng stared at him: "Call foster father, there will be a reward after calling."

Qian Yanzhi sneered: "Do you think I'm the kind of person who sells my personality for rewards? You don't care how old I am, why should I call you foster father?"

"One word is ten taels of gold." Huo Zheng said.

Qian Yanzhi immediately shut up and looked at Huo Zheng, feeling very conflicted.

The temptation of ten taels of gold a word is too great, but it is too shameless to call the father-in-law for the sake of gold.

Qian Yanzhi looked directly at Huo Zheng, and said solemnly:

"I... I'm not that kind of person, so I won't yell for gold, foster father, are you tired, foster father is going to rest, foster father..."

Before he finished speaking, Huo Zheng hooked his neck and kissed his lips, thin, gentle, bit by bit, touching Qian Yanzhi's lips, and the encounter between his lips and teeth made Qian Yanzhi's heart skip a beat. He came faster and closed his eyes.

When Huo Zheng let go, Qian Yanzhi's face was already red, and the scorching temperature was comparable to the charcoal stove in this room.

"One... 100 taels of gold." Qian Yanzhi said.

Huo Zheng stared at him: "Okay."

Qian Yanzhi was very satisfied, but he didn't want to be hugged into his arms by Huo Zheng in the next second.

"A Yan, you...you..." Huo Zheng spoke several times, but he hesitated to speak.

Qian Yanzhi looked up at him in confusion: "What does Your Majesty want to say?"

Huo Zheng stared into Qian Yanzhi's eyes, he was thinking, not knowing how to express what was in his heart.

Qian Yanzhi blinked: "Are you planning not to give me gold?"

Huo Zheng: "..."

Come on, I know that he only has money in his heart.

"I will send the gold to Changning Hall tomorrow morning." Huo Zheng stretched out his hand and pinched the tip of Qian Yanzhi's nose, "I'm sure I'm tired after a day's work. Let's rest earlier."

Qian Yanzhi responded, and Huo Zheng held hands and took him into the bedroom to sleep.
