Sir, I can do it!

The gloomy Beifu Great Prison was silent, and a needle could be heard falling.

Hong Kun narrowed his eyes and looked at the man in black on the opposite side, and said, "This is a prisoner from Beifu..."

Changsun Ke didn't allow him to finish, so he interrupted in a cold voice: "This case is of great importance, and the superior has ordered Nanfu to take over."

Hong Kun's face froze.

The two confronted each other for a moment, and the surrounding air suddenly became extremely cold.Wei Zhao shivered violently.

After standing in the prison all night, Wei Zhao was exhausted, he yawned long, with tears in the corners of his eyes.

"...I said, when can you discuss it, who will I belong to?"

Seeing Wei Zhao's lazy posture, Chen Jinghuai was inexplicably annoyed.Anyone who enters this Beifu Prison, no matter how hard your bones are, will surely be frightened by 72 tortures so that your legs will become weak.This Mr. Wei was spoiled and spoiled, and he didn't know martial arts, but he didn't see fear in his eyes.His bright eyes rolled around randomly, his eyes were full of novelty, as if he really came to Beifu Prison just for fun.

Looking at him looking at the Nanfu supervisor eagerly, it seems that he can't wait to go to the Nanfu Prison for another visit.

Chen Jinghuai scowled, staring at Wei Zhao coldly.In my heart, I couldn't help but think about what Wei Zhaoshi just said.

Hong Kun's forehead was already covered with fine beads of sweat, and under the strong pressure of Changsun Ke, he finally gave in.

Wei Zhao was released by the jailer and handed over to Changsun Ke outside the door, and was carried out of the Beifu Prison by Changsun Ke. He threw the man on the horse's back, galloped the horse, and was submerged in the darkness before dawn.

Xu was extremely sleepy, Wei Zhao actually fell asleep and died.When I opened my eyes, the sky was bright.He was in a daze for a while, and found himself lying on the bed, covered with a quilt.The quilt has been washed with starch, mixed with a good-smelling saponin fragrance, clean and comfortable.

He sat up and lifted the quilt, and found that his bloody clothes had been changed, and he was wearing his own underwear.

"Nanfu prison still undresses people?"

Wei Zhao pursed his lips, looked around, and saw that the furnishings in the room were simple, and there was a desk next to the window, with pens, ink, paper and inkstone on it.There is a wooden shelf in the corner next to the door, on which washbasins, wipes, soap horns and other things are placed.There was a suitcase in the corner. He got out of bed and walked over to it. He opened the suitcase and found several clothes stacked inside.

"Tut tsk tsk, prepare new clothes!"

Wei Zhao smiled and pulled out a black coat and put it on his body. The clothes were very loose and didn't fit well, and they were dark in color.He pursed his lips and put the clothes back.

Then he walked to the door and tentatively pushed the door, and sure enough, the door was locked from the outside.Fu went to push the window again, and it was the same.

He swayed around the room twice with great interest, nodded and praised: "Nanfu Prison, it really feels comfortable."

Wei Ru didn't close his eyes all night, until it was dawn, someone threw a hidden weapon and nailed it to the window of his room, with a note wrapped on it.

Wei Zhao is fine, stay safe and don't move.

Wei Ru hurriedly opened the door, but there was no sign of anyone, and his face darkened.Hou's mansion is heavily guarded, this person must be a master at breaking into the mansion without anyone noticing.

He closed the door, checked the note repeatedly, thought for a long time, but still didn't know who threw it.Until the time-telling clapper rang, Wei Ru burned the note calmly, summoned his servants, and prepared to change his clothes and go to court.

Tongzheng Hall of the Imperial Palace.

The young emperor looked tiredly at the crowd of courtiers discussing.

Sure enough, as Wei Ru expected, the story of Meiyuan last night had already spread, and there were endless debates in the court.

"I have something to announce." Zheng Zhou, the Minister of Honglu Temple, took the lead and said: "After the incident happened last night, Beiyan's deputy envoy was furious, saying that he had truthfully reported the death of the four princes to Emperor Beiyan. I want Da Qi to give Bei Yan an explanation."

"How to explain?" Yuan Yu, the left servant of the Ministry of War, stepped forward and asked: "As we all know, Beiyan is determined to take back the six states of Shuobei. How, it needs to be further investigated. How can the emperor Wei Jiahai be subject to the mere Northern Yanman Kingdom."

Zheng Zhou replied: "It is precisely because of the six prefectures of Shuobei that we have to strike first. The prince of Beiyan was killed in the capital of Qi State. Qi State should be the first to express its position and block Youyou's mouth, so it will not lose the dignity of a big country. At that time, Beiyan will come to ask for Shuobei again. The six states are making progress."

Yuan Yu thought for a while, and said solemnly: "Your Majesty, the time limit of the Shuobei Covenant was 25 years, and now it has passed 24 years. The ownership of the six Shuobei states should also be discussed in a long-term way. So we should be more cautious about the Meiyuan case."

Fan Duo, Minister of Political Affairs, took the words and said, "Your Majesty Yuan's words are true. The four countries seem to be in balance on the surface, but in fact, the secret war is already in full swing. Nanliang and Dongyue are getting stronger and stronger, so we must guard against it. Therefore, regarding Beiyan, I think that The priority should be to stabilize the diplomatic relations between the two countries.”

The conversation changed, and he said again: "A gentleman with great determination should always cherish the world, take benevolence and morality as his duty, and take faith as the foundation of his life. He should accept the trust of the king and bear the wishes of the people. He should not avoid the difficulties, and exchange his body for one person. The peace of the world. Mr. Wei stabbed Prince Beiyan to death in full view, the facts are all there. Without conclusive evidence, it is really difficult to appease Beiyan."

The implication is that Wei Zhao's murder is irrefutable and he should be held responsible.As soon as this remark came out, there were many seconders.

When the Meiyuan case happened, the four dandies in Shengjing were all present at the scene, but today at the court meeting, Prime Minister Lu Ding, who is the head of civil servants, and Weiru, the head of the generals, the Marquis of Zhen Guo, all stood by without saying a word and watched with cold eyes.

Regarding the matter of the six prefectures in Shuobei, it had been mentioned as early as the court meeting at the beginning of the year, but the courtiers had different positions, whether it was war or peace, each held their own views, and so far there has been no conclusion.This is where the difficulty of the Meiyuan case lies.

Emperor Yuan squinted his eyes and glanced at the officials, and finally set his sights on Wei Ru.Xu Shi sensed the emperor's gaze, and Wei Ru finally stood up.

"My minister is ashamed. Wei Zhao, a disciple of skirts and clogs, has made no contribution to the society and made no achievements to the common people. Thanks to the great grace of the emperor, he enjoys wealth, honor and comfort, but does not want to serve the country. I can’t absolve myself of the blame for my lack of teaching. However, this matter is related to the national system and has a great relationship. The so-called saints who regard the world as their salvation should not harm the world’s merits with their own personal feelings. I dare not speak rashly about this matter, it’s all based on The emperor is in charge."

In theory, Wei Zhao can be regarded as the brother-in-law of Emperor Yuan.What Wei Ru said today is to tell Emperor Yuan not to worry about his personal feelings, but to deal with it fairly.The courtiers all praised Dayi, the Marquis of Zhenguo.

The rough man searched his guts and said such a set of polite words, Emperor Yuan glanced at him with interest, and then looked away.

"Your family has said so much, I know that what you think in your heart is all for me to Daqi Jiangshan Sheji. Since this matter happened in Shengjing, Daqi has an unshirkable responsibility. But the supervisor of the Nanfu brought back a As for the news, I thought about it for a long time, so I transferred the case to the Nanfu for a thorough investigation."

All the ministers were in an uproar.

The Nanfu is in charge of spying and arresting spies from various countries. No one knows who is in the Nanfu. They only know that people in Shengjing disappear every day for no reason...

If this case is transferred to Nanfu, the circumstances of the case must be extremely complicated.

Wei Ru raised his heart again, if it was in Beifu's hands, at least he could still see it.However, the whereabouts of people in Nanfu have always been uncertain, and the Nanfu yamen is described as empty, empty.I don't know how Zhao'er is doing now.

Wei Zhao is a restless person. There are no partitions in this room, which is square and clear at a glance.He turned around twice and felt bored.

Suddenly hearing a noise outside the window, Wei Zhaoteng jumped up from the bed, and jumped to the window in two or three steps.Only the sound of a lock was heard, and the window was pushed up from the bottom, revealing a gap half a palm wide.

Wei Zhao suddenly realized that the window actually moved up and down!

He lay prone on the desk, resting his chin on the window sill, and his eyes could see the outside through the gap.

But before he could take a closer look, his sight was covered by the dishes, his nose smelled the aroma, and his stomach growled uncontrollably.

Reluctantly, Wei Zhao got down from the desk, and Baba looked at the dishes handed in from the window.The person outside the window kept silent, delivered the meal and locked the window before leaving.

Wei Zhao curled his lips, and muttered, "What can I do if I leave a gap, I'm not a worm, I can crawl out of such a narrow gap."

That being said, this dish is very appetizing.He tasted it and thought about it, they are all in the prison of Tongcha Mansion, how could there be such a big difference.

After eating and drinking enough, Wei Zhao hiccupped, and began to wonder what Nanfu was up to in order to bring him here.

It was late in the evening when the incident happened, and when the family got the news, the palace gate had already been locked, and father would not rashly enter the palace without clarifying the facts.The eldest sister has always been calm, and she will never intercede with the emperor's brother-in-law at this time.So the Nanfu supervisor robbed people halfway, could it be that there was unexpected news?

But without the emperor's instruction, how could Hong Kun dare to make a claim to force himself to confess his guilt.Even if he had some old grievances with the Marquis of Zhen Guo, he would not use such a direct method to deal with the Wei family, unless his head was kicked by a donkey.

Wei Zhao pursed his lips, unable to figure out this matter, he simply turned his attention to Wan Yanhong again.

Wei Zhao had never killed anyone, but he had the same nightmare countless times. In the dream, he witnessed a young man piercing the man's chest with a sword, and when he pulled out the sword, blood spattered far away.The man fell to the ground and convulsed twice before dying.

But the boy frowned and said, "It's not pretty."

Wei Zhao asked, "What is considered beautiful?"

The young man replied: "When you kill someone, you don't see blood."

As for why he had such a dream, and who the boy in the dream was, he had no memory at all.

Later, he once asked an old doctor in the army about the dream. The old doctor didn't tell him how to kill people, but only told him that if he was hit by an arrow and wounded by a knife, don't pull it out immediately, otherwise he would lose too much blood and die.

Thinking back carefully about yesterday's situation, when Wan Yanhong rushed towards him, his body posture seemed a little strange.The guards rushed over with Wan Yanhong, yelled and scuffled with A Liang and the others.But I noticed that Wan Yanhong didn't scream, didn't even make a sound, like a sandbag being pushed out, his movements were stiff and expressionless.

And I just pushed the person out with an instinctive reaction, but forgot that I still had a dagger in my hand.The dagger sank into Wanyanhong's chest... At that time, Ah Liang thought that Wanyanhong had grabbed him, and hurriedly kicked him out, but Wei Zhao had no time to stop him.

When he came back to his senses, the dagger was still in his hand, but Wan Yanhong was dead, killed on the spot.

He had seen the wound, and it didn't hurt his heart or lungs. Even if he pulled out the dagger, he would definitely not die immediately.Looking at the scene again, only his own hands and Wan Yanhong's chest had blood stains, as for the blood spots on his body, it was dripped and splashed from the dagger.Such a serious injury, but not much blood flow, seems unreasonable.

Associating everything together, Wei Zhao dared to conclude that Wan Yanhong must be dead.The reason for the strange posture is that he was indeed pushed out by someone, and the noise of the three guards was also intended to attract everyone's attention, so that Wan Yanhong would be stabbed to death in full view.

It's just that Chen Jinghuai said that nothing abnormal was found in the body, so what is the cause of Wan Yanhong's death?

Wei Zhao yawned, rubbed his head, shuffled and fell on the bed, hooked his long legs, and rode on the quilt to sleep and wake up his mind.He had just found a comfortable position when he heard the door lock being unlocked, and then with a creak, the door was pushed open.

Wei Zhao lazily turned his head while holding the quilt, against the light, only a tall black shadow could be seen.It wasn't until the door was closed and the sunlight was cut off that Wei Zhao saw that the person who came seemed to be the man in black who took him away last night.

Chang Sun Ke took off his hood, revealing a young and handsome face.It was dark in the prison last night, Wei Zhao couldn't see his face clearly, he could only hear his low but irresistible voice.

Looking at it now, this man has very good-looking eyebrows, long eyebrows, high nose and thin lips. In terms of this appearance alone, Wei Zhao seems to have a somewhat kind face, but he can't think of where he has seen it.

If you look closely, there seems to be ice in his eyes that has not melted for a thousand years, making his whole person serious and cold.In this way, it feels very strange again.

Wei Zhao stared at him blankly, not thinking about whether he had met him before, but simply thought this man was good-looking, and the more he looked at it, the more he liked him.It seemed that he didn't need to do anything, just standing there, his heart was tickled, it was a strange feeling.

He looked Changsun Ke up and down again, then squinted at him, and asked, "Are you going to interrogate me?"
