As soon as Zhao Qi left Liu's residence, he saw Eunuch Gui rushing over in a hurry.

"Ouch! Prime Minister Zhao! You can make it easy for me to find you!" Eunuch Gui fiddled with the fly whisk in his hands a few times, and after taking a breath, he said, "The emperor is looking for you!"

Zhao Qi stopped at a distance, waiting for Eunuch Gui to approach, and then responded shallowly, "The truth is also about to enter the palace to meet the emperor." After a pause, he asked again, "Do you know why the emperor wants to find the truth? thing?"

Eunuch Gui shook his head and said, "The Sacred Heart is unpredictable. How dare a servant intervene in the matters of the emperor." After looking around, he coughed lightly and whispered in Zhao Qi's ear, "It seems to be about the matter of the former emperor. How about the details, I don’t know much about slaves.”

Zhao Qi's expression remained unchanged, and he still thanked Gui Gonggong according to the courtesy, knowing that the little emperor asked Han Liang at this time, probably because he already knew the whole story of that year.Over the past few days, he has spent too much effort to find the whereabouts of Dangchun and Wang Manman, and he cannot help but fall short in tracking down Han Liang who disappeared.The little emperor is looking for him now, it would be better to say that Han Liang is waiting for him to throw himself into the trap.

Deceiving the emperor and committing crimes, poisoning the former emperor, and plotting to usurp the throne, which one is not a serious crime to destroy the nine clans?

If we had prepared early, we would not have fallen into this situation today.People say that caring is chaotic, regardless of priorities, he has thoroughly realized it today.

Even so, I never regretted it.

Seeing that Zhao Qi remained silent, Eunuch Gui couldn't help feeling worried, and said, "Mr. Zhao? Are you feeling unwell?"

What is supposed to come is coming, and these years have passed peacefully.Now that Liu Changqing has forgotten all his past events, it may not be... not a good thing.

"Let's go."

At this time, the sky was clear and blue, cloudless, and the early summer sun was falling straight down, slightly dazzling.Zhao Qi raised his hand to cover the glare in front of his eyes, and helped Eunuch Gui's hand to get on the carriage slowly.

------------

Royal study.

"My minister, Zhao Qi, sees the emperor, long live my emperor, long live long live!"

Han Zhen is no longer the little emperor who knew nothing about the world.Over the past few years, he has grown a lot taller, learned riding and archery from generals, and his skin is tanned, not as immature as before.

He walked slowly in front of Zhao Qi, and said in a low voice, "Teacher don't need to be polite, get up."

Zhao Qi suddenly wanted to raise his head to see the expression on Han Zhen's face, but in the end he didn't move at all, and even his voice was steady as usual.

"Thank you, Your Majesty."

"Teacher, sit down." Han Zhen raised his hand and asked the little eunuch behind him to move a soft stool over, and then waved to the maids and eunuchs who were waiting on the side to signal to retreat.

The eunuchs and maids filed out and gently closed the door.At this time, only Zhao Qi and Han Zhen were left in the imperial study.

Han Zhen didn't speak, and sat in front of the desk quietly reviewing the memorial, as if waiting for Zhao Qi to speak first.Presumably he also deliberately revealed some information to Eunuch Gui, the purpose is to let Zhao Qi know the reason why he summoned him this time.

Zhao Qi was still sitting on the bench waiting, there was no wind blowing in from the hall, and the bright yellow tassels on the table were hanging there steadily, at first glance it looked soft and peaceful, but upon closer inspection, there were strands of tassels that seemed to penetrate into the bones It's cold in here.

Zhao Qi sat quietly for a while, and then said calmly, "The emperor summoned the minister, what is the important matter?" His voice was gentle, just like they did many years ago, he held the book and asked Han Zhen to recite what he said today back.

It's just that the revenge of killing his father is irreconcilable. Han Zhen still calls him "Teacher", and he doesn't know what kind of mystery is hidden in this title.And now he is the only one in the imperial study, where is Han Liang hiding?

Han Zhen didn't seem to have heard his question, so he flipped through a few memorials and said, "Yan Sheng, an old man, is making things difficult for me again! He actually impeached the Grand Tutor for favoritism and perverting the law, ignoring human life."

Seeing that Zhao Qi didn't reply, he said to himself again, "Tomorrow we must teach that old man a lesson in public, and let him know how powerful he is."

After so many years, the little emperor has also learned to beat around the bush.Zhao Qi chuckled inwardly, and said, "Your Majesty, this minister and Mr. Yan are just performing their own duties. We pay attention to evidence in everything. If Mr. Yan has no evidence, this minister can only sue the emperor for slander and false accusation. "

Han Zhen nodded, "Speaking of evidence, I have something here that I want to show the Taifu."

There was a box in front of his desk, Zhao Qi paid attention to it for a long time, but he couldn't guess what was inside.Did that old man Yan Sheng really find any evidence?Zhao Qi frowned, thinking that he had handled everything neatly these years, so how could he have left any excuses for him?Besides, the little emperor summoned him here just for this trivial matter?

Seeing Zhao Qi looking at the box, Han Zhen stretched out his hand and pushed it forward, saying, "Why don't you open it, Taifu?"

"Yes." Zhao Qi replied, got up and walked to the desk.

Although he knew that the things contained in this box were definitely not good for him, as if something was trying to stop him from looking into it, a voice kept neighing in his mind, but Zhao Qi still stretched out his hand uncontrollably, Slowly open the box.

A gust of bloody air hit the person's face, it was smooth and cold, like several tiny bugs crawling out from the bone cracks, engulfing the person in the dark abyss.

Zhao Qi slowly closed the box, hugged it in his arms, and slowly knelt down on the ground, his whole body was not in the stone slab of the royal study, the paw prints carved with dragon patterns seemed to penetrate through his robe and sink into his kneecaps go in the meat.

If there is a mirror right now, Zhao Qi thinks that his face will never be too good-looking. He lowers his head to look at Han Zhenying's shadow in front of the steps, trying to see some emotions from the cold and heavy darkness.

He thought about any items that might be contained in the box, but he didn't expect it to be a bloody human head.It would be fine to be someone else, but Zhao Qigang opened his eyes angrily - he will never forget such a pair of eagle eyes in his life, even though they are covered with bloodshot eyes, he can still see the coldness in them!Isn't this person Han Liang who disappeared for a long time!

How could he die?How could his head appear in Han Zhen's hands?And Han Zhen, why did you tell him to watch this?

Things happened so fast that Zhao Qi was caught off guard.Han Liang is really dead!Before he, Zhao Qi, could find any clues, Han Liang had already been assassinated by others!This person's methods have even exceeded his expectations. In the whole of Korea, the only possible one is Han Zhen!

Han Zhen killed his father Han Liang?

Zhao Qi was taken aback by that terrifying head just now, now he calmed down and thought about it carefully, didn't he!Besides Han Zhen, who else could it be?What kind of father is kind and son is filial piety has never happened in the emperor's house. No matter what Han Liang was back then, the emperor of Dahan is now Han Zhen. How could he tolerate the existence of a person who would threaten his throne at any time?Even if this person is his father, it is absolutely impossible!

Han Liang probably didn't expect that the little prince, who was so cowardly that he dismissed him back then, grew up in a corner he didn't see, and his minions were enough to choke his throat!

"Teacher, do you also wonder why a person who has been dead for so many years will appear in my hands again?" Han Zhen asked.

He asked this question just to warn Zhao Qi about the plan to "kill" the first emperor back then.Zhao Qi secretly sighed in his heart, after all, he couldn't hide this matter, Han Zhen didn't even let Han Liang off, so how could he be soft-hearted towards himself?

Seeing that Zhao Qi didn't answer, Han Zhen said again, "There are only you and me here, if you have anything to say, please say it!"

It's not that Zhao Qi doesn't talk, it's just that he has nothing to say!There is nothing to say about the situation now.Is it possible to follow the example of those strong men and reckless men, who are dissolute and nonsensical, and let them be killed or cut?

Knowing what Zhao Qi was thinking, Han Zhen didn't wait for his answer, and sat back in his chair, "Teacher, get up."

Zhao Qi didn't dare to get up, and knelt in the same place motionless, looking down at the ground, trying to make himself look terrified.

When he didn't speak, Han Zhen spoke up by himself. This time he lowered his voice, and his tone was a little lonely. Being in a high position, he was originally lonely.

"I didn't believe it at first, but the evidence is right in front of me. Taifu... I respect you and like you. Why did it become like this? Besides, I should blame you, but I don't know how to blame you I personally killed my father, and it has nothing to do with you. Speaking of which, you will help me step by step to the throne..."

Zhao Qi listened silently, without saying a word.

Han Zhen said again, "Father is also dead now, and no one knows what happened back then. You are my Taifu, and I don't want to embarrass you... It's just that the Taifu added a yellow robe to me back then. Will there be someone else in the past?"

"I dare not!" What does he mean, does he want to get rid of himself to prevent future troubles?Zhao Qi couldn't make up his mind, so he quickly bowed his head and said sincerely, "Nowadays, the world is in prosperity, and the emperor is wise, so I dare not make mistakes!"

Han Zhen laughed lightly, and tapped his fingers on the table, once and for all, as if tapping Zhao Qi's chest, sometimes hard and sometimes lightly.

It wasn't long since he came to the Imperial Study Room, and when he was tossing about these things, Zhao Qi thought to himself, dealing with the emperor is an annoyance, and he will lose his head at every turn.Suddenly my heart moved, remembering that Liu Changqing was so rebellious back then that he said that he wanted to accompany him to raise troops to rebel, he couldn't help but secretly smiled.

He also heard Han Zhen say, "Teacher, there is nothing important in Beijing, but the western border is in turmoil. Let's take your family to Xiaoyaohou Mansion some day."

Zhao Qi was taken aback, and quickly answered "Yes".Did Han Zhen want him to leave the capital, go far away, and never come back?

"I'm tired too, Taifu should go back first!"

"Resignation." Zhao Qi bowed again before standing up.Just as she was about to turn around and go out, she suddenly heard Han Zhen say, "Take this thing back too, I'm upset."

What he was pointing at was the box on the desk. Although the lid had been closed, Zhao Qi could still see some blood stains spilling out from the gap.

--------------

This time it was really a narrow escape, until the carriage stopped at the gate of the Zhao Mansion and his feet landed firmly on the ground, Zhao Qi finally breathed a sigh of relief.

Even if Han Zhen didn't mention it, he would take all the people in his family to the western border after a while to try to be quiet. Even if the plan was advanced a little bit now, there was nothing wrong with it.

"Master, what are you holding in your hand?" Wang Fu stretched out his hand to hold his arm, and naturally noticed the box tightly held by his other hand, and asked, "What good thing did the emperor reward you again? "

"It's a good thing." Zhao Qi nodded and smiled meaningfully, "I won't worry about food and clothing in the future."

"Oh? That's really a treasure!" Wang Fu also laughed, and said as if suddenly remembering, "By the way, master, Mr. Liu has been waiting for you in the hall for half an hour!"

Zhao Qi thought for a moment, recalled the scene many years ago, and asked, "Which Master Liu?"

"Oh, who else could it be Master Liu!" Wang Fu laughed, and was about to speak, but saw that Liu Changqing had come out to meet him, and he must have heard the servant's report, so he hurried out.

"teacher!"

Wang Fu let out a "huh", feeling a little strange about this name, but he didn't doubt it, he said to Zhao Qi, and led his servants to retreat one after another.

Seeing that his face was flushed, it was not just hot or something, Zhao Qi smiled helplessly, and asked, "Why did you come here?"

When I asked this sentence, I felt as if I really came back to life. Before, I kept carrying it in one breath, which made my heart ache, but now the clouds have cleared up, and the color is clear, as if nothing happened.

"I heard from my father that the teacher has been visiting the students these days...the students are much better now, and I came here to thank the teacher for his care." Liu Changqing said respectfully, "There are new ones that were released many years ago at home. Tea, I heard that the teacher likes tea, so the student brought you some."

Zhao Qi smiled, freed up a hand, patted his shoulder, and said, "It's hard for you to miss it."

Liu Changqing was only looking at his face just now, and then he noticed the box in his hand, and asked, "What is the teacher holding in his hand?"

Zhao Qi didn't know how to answer for a while, but he felt unable to speak, but he was almost used to Liu Changqing talking like this, so he didn't feel much annoyed.

To say that Liu Changqing was blind too, seeing that Zhao Qi didn't answer, he continued to ask, "It must be some kind of treasure, can you let the students see it too?"

"It's nothing unusual, it's just a few hundred taels of gold rewarded by the emperor." As he spoke, he turned his head and motioned for the guards in the distance to come over, and then said, "Take it down."

The guard quickly said "yes", but when he received it, he noticed a fishy smell in his hand. Where is this gold? !After being frightened, his hands trembled, and he quickly calmed down, holding the box steady, but he didn't dare to show any abnormal expressions, and backed away with a tense face in fear.

"A few hundred taels of gold is so frightening." Zhao Qi laughed, seeing that Liu Changqing was still staring at the box, and said, "If you like it, take some back later."

"Ah?" Liu Changqing came back to his senses, knew that Zhao Qi was making fun of him, blushed immediately, at a loss, and argued, "No, student, student doesn't mean that..."

His cheeks were flushed with shame, but Zhao Qi was in a good mood, stroking his hair comfortingly, and said, "Okay, I'm teasing you. Stay for lunch later."

"Hmm..." Liu Changqing nodded obediently, but he was so happy that he jumped up in his heart. In the past, he could only watch this person from a distance, and always felt that he was out of reach. Who would have thought that he would be able to eat together now? Could it be a dream? ?
