After the rebirth, I was picked up by the prince

Zhu Fengyu was so frightened that he finally couldn't hold back and asked tentatively: "Master Shi invited the villain here today...but for the case in the early court?"

Qi Zizhen glanced at him, but said nothing.

Zhu Fengyu couldn't hold back what he meant, but he said everything, and there was absolutely no room for taking it back, so he could only bite the bullet and continue: "If the Master of the National Teacher...is there anything that can be used by a villain, Please, Master National Teacher, just give orders."

Qi Zizhen didn't answer right away, picked up the teacup and took a sip, his movements were slow and elegant, as if he had already been immersed in an indifferent situation beyond the world.

This also made Zhu Fengyu more and more suspicious of the correctness of his own initiative to ask.

As a qualified grasshopper, Zhu Fengyu still has a little understanding and speculation about the relationship between Qi Zizhen and Song Yaoxu.

Although Song Yaoxu would not show too much intimacy and preference for Qi Zizhen in the court hall, but Zhu Fengyu specially observed that many times Qi Zizhen went to the direction of the harem instead of returning to the master tower after going to court.

Now that Song Yaoxu is the emperor, after going to the battlefield once, his temperament is not as gentle as before. Zhu Fengyu is worried that he will accidentally offend the emperor's favor and cause death.

Qi Zizhen didn't know the twists and turns in his heart, he drank the tea in the cup in small sips, and then put the teacup on the table unhurriedly.

The white porcelain collided with the wooden table, making a crisp sound, which floated lightly in the small wing room, and disappeared before it could swing half a circle.

He slowly picked up the dagger on the table again, as if disgusted that it was dusty when it fell just now, he took out a clean handkerchief and wiped it slowly.

On the way of wiping, he finally spoke, his voice was elegant and indifferent: "What do you think about the case in the early court?"

Hearing that he finally brought up the case, Zhu Fengyu sat up a little bit, but still didn't dare to look at the dagger in his hand, and answered as carefully as possible: "Those three people are ineffective, and the villain will definitely be fair." Thorough investigation."

After listening to his words, Qi Zizhen replied in a neutral tone: "Really."

He didn't have any emotions, and he didn't know whether he was satisfied with Zhu Fengyu's answer.

Zhu Fengyu could only continue to say with a smile: "The villain guarantees that those lazy people will be punished and justice will be given to the border people."

Qi Zizhen didn't speak. He roughly wiped the dagger and put down the handkerchief. He held the hilt of the knife in his left hand and put his index finger and middle finger together.

At the same time, he looked up at Zhu Fengyu, the bottom of his eyes seemed to be covered with a thin layer of frost, which was more oozing cold than the indifference just now.

He sneered, and said slowly: "How do I remember, the reason I impeached the three of them today is not ineffectiveness in doing things?"

Zhu Fengyu suddenly felt a chill down his back, and quickly changed his words: "It's corruption and perversion of the law! The villain will definitely investigate their inappropriate behavior of corruption and perversion of the law!"

Seeing his flustered appearance, Qi Zizhen guessed that Guan Wang might have already looked for him, and most likely he was asking him to obscure the facts and investigate in the direction of the light surface.

Qi Zizhen didn't make any comments on his words, and continued: "Now that His Majesty is in power for the first time, the so-called new officials have three fires when they take office. The first fire has already been burned to the imperial guards, and the second fire..."

He paused, put the dagger lightly back on the table, and then continued: "Whether the house of the three officials or some lord's house was burned is not certain. After all, we are a big Ling Chaotang, and we can't do anything without support." waste."

There was an implicit warning in his last sentence, although he didn't name him, but the implication of the threat was already very obvious, enough for Zhu Fengyu to take his seat.

Zhu Fengyu smiled dryly, and responded: "The villain will definitely investigate thoroughly, and please rest assured, Master Guoshi."

Qi Zizhen responded with a vague nasal voice, and didn't continue to scare him this time. He raised his hand to pick up the teapot and poured a cup of tea again, taking back the original sharpness.

He took a sip of tea, and after scaring people, he finally gave a sweet date: "Master Shang Shu, don't worry, no matter what other forces behind him want to persecute, His Majesty will give priority to those who are useful to the court and protect their lives.

"I think, if Lord Shangshu is so outstanding, he must be one of this kind of people, right?"

Zhu Fengyu didn't dare to give a negative answer to this question, and responded with a submissive smile.

Qi Zizhen finally stopped embarrassing him, he finished all the reminders, and found a reason to let him go back after a while.

Zhu Fengyu backed out of the small wing obediently, his forehead was covered with cold sweat at some point.

Although the national teacher looked like a young man, his cold eyes and decisive aura made people not doubt his cruelty at all. Zhu Fengyu, who had spent more than [-] years comfortably in the court hall in troubled waters, felt this rare feeling. When it came to danger—more dangerous than Guan Wang gave him.

Guan Wang's intention of treason is obvious enough to him, and after all, he has been working with him for more than 20 years, and with his usual ability to observe words and emotions, he has basically got rid of Guan Wang's temper.

But this one named Qi Zizhen is different, he is too good at disguising his emotions even in private.

Zhu Fengyu wiped the cold sweat from his forehead, but still planned to continue walking and watching.

Anyway, from the current point of view, Qi Zizhen and Song Ping should be two opposing sides, and he can see which side is stronger at that time.

He was making a lot of calculations in his heart, but not long after he walked out of Jixian Tower, he saw his servants running over in a hurry, as if they were in a hurry.

Zhu Fengyu had an intuition that something had happened, so he dragged him to a deserted place before asking.

The servant was panting from running, took a few deep breaths, and then hurriedly lowered his voice and said: "The big thing is wrong, the account book and account book of the mansion have been stolen!"

"What!?" Zhu Fengyu's eyes widened, and was immediately reminded by his servants to keep his voice down.

After looking around, the servant took out a piece of paper, put it in Zhu Fengyu's hand and whispered, "This is left by the person who stole the account book."

When Zhu Fengyu heard the words, he immediately opened the note, and saw a sentence written on it——

"I heard that the account book of the adults is very interesting. I will borrow it for a while and return it to you someday~"

The inscription is a small pattern in the style of three bamboo leaves.

Zhu Fengyu recognized this pattern, and it was a symbol exclusive to people in the Jianghu.

As far as he knew, there was some connection between the National Teacher Tower and people from the Jianghu.

Zhu Fengyu pinched the corner of the note, and after a while finally ordered with a calm face: "Don't let anyone know about this matter."

On the other side, in the small wing of Jixian Building, the guard jumped in from the window not long after Zhu Fengyu left, holding something like a ledger in his hand.

After he put the thing in front of Qi Zizhen, he pulled up a chair and sat down, and said with a smile: "I brought the account book you asked for, and I also found a secret in their house, do you want to hear it~"

Since moving into the National Teacher Tower, the relationship between Qi Zizhen and the guards has become closer than before. On weekdays, the guards have never bothered to abide by the rules like they did to Ning Qingwei, and they would tease Qi Zizhen like a child from time to time.

Although in his opinion, Qi Zizhen is indeed still a child.

Qi Zizhen heard what he meant, and threw the menu in front of him, which had been neglected for a long time, and said noblely and coldly: "You can order whatever you want, because I still have a lot of lucky money now."

The guard chuckled: "It's better for Xiaozhen, if I want to change the former national teacher at the moment, I will only talk about it instead of talking about it."

Listening to the guard's description, Qi Zizhen could imagine Ning Qingwei's expression when he said this, and it was right that he could say it himself.

After all, Ning Qingwei didn't have his own small coffers, and he had to spend during the holidays. He usually looked at the immortal demeanor without being contaminated by the world, but it was actually to save money.

It happened that Qi Zizhen was also hungry at the moment, and after the guard finished watching, he also added an extra dish by the way. While waiting for the food to be served, he stared at the guard with his hands on his chin.

The guard didn't continue to play tricks, and crossed his legs and said: "When I was borrowing their account book, I accidentally alarmed the guards in their house. According to my observation, those guards should be the dead soldiers he secretly raised."

Before the Ling Dynasty, there were ministers who wanted to usurp the throne and raised dead soldiers to avoid the risk of being discovered. Since then, the Ling Dynasty’s laws have stipulated that no one, no matter what official position, is allowed to raise dead soldiers at home. Severe punishment for treason.

Why would Zhu Fengyu, who is most greedy for life and fear of death, dare to raise dead soldiers at home?

Qi Zizhen could understand the reason without thinking too much.

Guan Wang is not a short-sighted person, he must also know that a fool like Zhu Fengyu is the easiest to betray him, so at this time, there needs to be a handle that can restrain him.

Qi Zizhen chose to look through his family's account book, and Guan Wang probably just asked him to raise a group of dead soldiers at home.

If Qi Zizhen really wants to instigate rebellion and use Zhu Fengyu, he has to find a way to get rid of the dead soldiers in his mansion, and become the only one who has a handle on him.

He fiddled with the already empty teacup with one hand, and gradually had an idea in his mind.

And just at this time, Xiaoer brought up the dishes they ordered one after another, so he put away his thoughts again and concentrated on finishing the dinner first.

Qi Zizhen, who was full after eating, drinking and scaring people, was in a good mood. When he was happy, he couldn't help but want to go to the palace to find someone. After talking to the guards, he walked around in the direction of the secret passage of the palace on the way back.

It was still dark at this moment, Qi Zizhen carefully avoided the palace guards, and took a detour to the imperial study room, and he saw Cui Liang who was on duty at the gate of the imperial study room.

Cui Liang was not surprised to see Qi Zizhen coming over, and he turned sideways to let him go after saluting.

So as soon as he walked in, he saw Song Yaoxu who was reviewing the memorial in front of the table, and Song Shi who set up a small bench next to Song Yaoxu to read.

The two people, one big and one small, were quiet and looked alike upon closer inspection, and the atmosphere was very harmonious.

——If you ignore Song Shi's drowsy expression at the moment.

Qi Zizhen saw that Song Shi's head was light, and he might fall directly on his back at any moment, so he couldn't help but chuckled, which just broke the silence in the imperial study.

Song Shi, who was in a half-dream and half-awake state, was suddenly awakened, and as a result, his center of gravity was unsteady and he fell sideways from the bench with a bang, and fell solidly on his buttocks.

And after the fall, Song Shi didn't cry out the pain immediately, his mouth was one step ahead of his brain, and he quickly argued: "Xiao Shi didn't fall asleep, Xiao Shi was just careless!"

Thinking about it, it wasn't the first time that I fell down because I woke up from sleepiness.

Song Yaoxu on the side showed helplessness, stepped forward to help him up, and carefully patted the dust on his clothes: "Forget it, let's stop here today, go back and have a good rest."

The eyes of Song Shi, who was still sluggish, lit up immediately, and he regained his vitality all of a sudden: "Okay! Thank you, Brother Jin!"

Then he slipped out without saying a word, as if he was terrified that Song Yaoxu would go back on his word.

It was only at this time that Song Shi realized that there were more people in the room. He slammed on the brakes halfway, and stopped just in time before hitting Qi Zizhen, and shouted angrily, "Brother Qi is good! Goodbye, Brother Qi!"

After speaking, he immediately turned a corner and left the imperial study room as if fleeing.

Qi Zizhen was startled when he saw his hurried back, and looked back at Song Yaoxu: "What did your Highness do to Xiao Shi?"

According to Song Shi's usual temperament, he should pester him to play with him now.

The helplessness in Song Yaoxu's eyes did not fade away, he sighed and said: "That is to say, let him come to study with me in the imperial study for the past few days, but today is the sixth time that Xiao Shi accidentally fell to the ground."

From Song Yaoxu's expression, Qi Zizhen could almost imagine Song Shi's state in the past few days.

He couldn't help laughing: "Xiao Shi is still young and has a lot of playfulness, how can he sit still. If His Highness was ten years old, His Highness might promise to sit and read for a few days in a row?"

Who knows that Song Yaoxu really nodded his head: "Since I was seven years old, every time I go to the South Study Room for vacation, I always read in the room."

Qi Zizhen coughed lightly, and adjusted the object of empathy: "Then think about the second prince again, Your Highness, let alone the second prince, he must not be able to sit still even now, right?"

Now Song Yaoxu understood that it was because he was too eager for success before, and forgot to consider whether Song Shi's temperament was suitable for urging him to read books every day.

He frowned, and asked again: "What does Zizhen think?"

Qi Zizhen didn't think too much, and said, "If your Highness is afraid that Xiao Shi will go astray, the best way is to start with practice. Xiao Shi is still young, and compared with the boring content in books, it is better to see it with your own eyes." He was even more impressed by what he heard with his own ears.”

After saying this, he thought for a while and added: "For example, let Xiao Shi go to see the beheading or capital execution scene by himself, or let him kill an assassin by himself. There are too many bloody scenes, so it should be fine." Be more decisive."

Song Yaoxu nodded seriously, "Zizhen is right."

At the same time, Cui Liang, who was at the door of the imperial study room, witnessed Song Shi's expression changing from anticipation to lovelessness, and couldn't help but asked worriedly: "His Royal Highness... are you okay?"

Song Shi withdrew the hand that was holding on to the door, put his little hand on it, and his face collapsed: "I'm fine, but I'm not fine."

The author has something to say: Song Shi: I am still a child, really QAQ
