Fortunately for Feng Yanghou

When Xianzonghe walked in, he was dragged to King Zhou Hui by the palace guards on both sides.He retreated to Qi Xin's side, his expression didn't change much, but there was still something hanging in his heart, as if he was extremely reluctant to see the Xian Si Shi who had been with him kneeling in front of him in this appearance in this Li Qing Palace .Xianzonghe is not a good person, but today's first trial must not be as simple as taking the blame and filling his own pockets.

"The sinful minister Xianzonghe pays homage to the king, long live the king, long live the king!"

Xianzonghe prostrated on the ground, his hands and feet were bound by chains, when he raised his head, the monarch in front of him looked at him coldly, and finally stretched out a foot, hooking the begging man's jaw.

He had never seen Qi Xin in such a tyrannical and murderous manner, he tilted his head, and an inexplicable palpitation flashed in his eyes.

Qi Xin smiled, "Master Xian, do you understand what you want to say?"

"Although the king asks, the guilty minister will know everything and will not hide anything."

In this royal palace, only the monarch in charge of the royal power can live and kill.And wealth and life often start with a trivial sentence.

Qi Xin moved his foot away contemptuously, and soon, a sensible little eunuch knelt down and held a brocade handkerchief to polish the monarch's boots.

He turned his face suddenly and saw blood scabs and welts all over Xianzong Ha's face and body.At this time, Qi Xin turned around and met his eyes.

"Ai Qing, do you still remember the matter of the rhinoceros that Gu mentioned to you that day?" Qi Xin raised his eyes at him, and he froze for a moment.

"I remember." Hearing this, he pretended to be calm and faced the unpredictable King Zhou Hui in front of him.

Could it be that the theft of the rhinoceros has something to do with Xianzonghe?

"Your Majesty," Xianzonghe suddenly crawled to Qi Xin's feet with great difficulty, and stretched out his hand, firmly clasping Qi Xin's dragon boots, "Your Majesty, I have clearly observed that no matter how daring the criminal minister is, he will not dare to touch anything in the palace." Your Majesty, the guilty minister has been wronged! The guilty minister... the guilty minister, just went to Yinbi Mountain to pick up a treasure. I blame the guilty minister for being obsessed with fame and wealth for a while, and being obsessed with ghosts..."

Xianzonghe knocked his head heavily on the ground as he spoke, and soon his head was bleeding.

"Oh, treasure?" Qi Xin said, and immediately stopped Xianzonghe's attempt to crash into Liqing Palace.

Xianzonghe responded again and again, for fear that the monarch in front of him would not be able to distinguish his position.

"Gu admits that he has never withheld the salaries of the court officials. Could it be that the money collected by Xian Sishi is not enough to fill his stomach? Treasures, I don't know what kind of treasure Xian Sishi picked up when he went to Yinbi Mountain... Where did you hide this treasure?"

Qi Xin narrowed his eyes suddenly.He was startled when he heard this, and in surprise, he thought of the days a month ago when Xianzonghe sent people to his mansion to offer treasures every now and then.

And in those days, he was still upset, and there were countless things to worry about, and he met Ji with the Raksha ghost face again.

Recalling that at that time, Qi Xin sent someone to investigate the matter of Yinbi Mountain, and he was also forbidden to intervene.Thinking about it this way, if Shi Shi Xian insisted that it was his order, then he must have a hard time denying it.

"Your Majesty, the guilty minister..." Xianzonghe seemed to have something difficult to say, with a livid face, hesitating.

Qi Xin's face was always gloomy, and he could only see a trace of impatience and irritability in Qi Xin's eyes from half an arm's distance away.

Extremely abrupt.

Qi Xin said suddenly, "Who did you give this treasure to?"

Xianzong Ha's shoulders trembled for a moment.And he happened to see Xianzong Ha's half-disappearing gaze was glancing towards him.

He thought something was wrong in his heart, lowered his eyes, and stood up while thinking, "Report to the king. The treasure that Xian Sishi said was sent to the servant's house a month ago."

When he said this, he was neither humble nor overbearing, and his demeanor and speech showed the appearance of a gentleman.

With a bang, the memorial on the table was swept to the ground.

Qi Xin squinted his eyes, not knowing what he was thinking, but the corners of his mouth curled up, revealing the sullen anger of being violated.

His eyelids trembled, but there was still a warm smile on his face.

"Hou Ye..." Xian Zonghe looked at him from a distance with tears of gratitude, as if he did this to protect and take the blame for the person in front of him.

Inside Li Qing Hall, the atmosphere was oppressive.

Qi Xin took the new tea offered by Eunuch Zhang, took a sip, and slowly sat back on the throne.

"Ai Qing is saying that this treasure is in your mansion?"

When Qi Xin spoke, he didn't seem to care about why he had something to do with Xianzonghe, what he did behind the scenes, and how he had anything to do with Yinbi Mountain.He still maintained the posture of apologizing, and the monarch in front of him didn't even raise the corners of his eyes.

He bowed, bowed deeply, and said: "The treasure has not been unsealed yet. The day before yesterday, when I accidentally thought of checking it, the brocade box disappeared."

His complexion did not change, but he knew in his heart that the people in front of him would not believe it.

Qi Xin seemed to have expected him to say that, put down the teacup in a calm manner, stood up, and walked in front of him.

With his eyes lowered, he could only catch a glimpse of the monarch's bright and hot black gold python robe.

"When this kind of thing happened, I don't need to ask about it. It's just Ai Qing, what I did, and what I didn't do. The right and wrong still need to be considered. Next time, I won't be as easy to talk as today."

He straightened up following Qi Xin's hand, and Qi Xin put his hand on his shoulder, smiling incomprehensibly.

"Your Majesty, you can rest assured," Eunuch Zhang stepped forward to smooth things over, and said with a smile, "Master Hou and Your Majesty are of the same mind, so naturally, His Majesty is the most important thing in everything."

He looked at Qi Xin who was standing with his hands behind his back. Qi Xin stared into his dark eyes, very solemn.

This was the second time he had seen such an expression.

As soon as the atmosphere changed, Qi Xin looked at him with gentle and calm eyes, as if he regarded him as his confidant.

He couldn't understand Zhou Rao's monarch more and more.He bowed his hands and said yes, raised his lacquered eyes, but saw Eunuch Zhang waving his hands secretly, and then shook his head at him.

"Xianzonghe, Guzi thinks that he treats you well. Now you steal the rhinoceros rhinoceros privately, and death is inevitable."

Qi Xin looked away, and looked straight at Xianzonghe who was still kneeling on the ground and dying.

"Your Majesty, forgive me..." Xianzonghe kowtowed in fear, "It is true that the guilty minister did not steal the spirit rhinoceros! The treasure that the criminal minister presented to the Lord is definitely not the spirit rhinoceros... Your Majesty, I beg your mercy and forgive the sinful minister A dog's life!"

He witnessed Xianzong Ha being dragged out by the palace people, but this time he changed from a bystander to a person involved.

What Qi Xin did was obviously to let him go, and he chose to punish Xianzonghe severely.Thinking about it in another way, when Xianzong Ha died, he was able to protect himself, and he didn't have to be talked about.

But it was this action that made him fully understand that Qi Xin had already regarded him as the instigator, or that he was doing all he wanted to do, but in private he was colluding with the courtiers to fight against the monarch.

When he walked out of the Liqing Hall, he sat on the sedan chair, resting his elbows on his eyelids, feeling a little tired.

From his point of view, the barriers between him and Qi Xin have been piled up layer upon layer, and in the end, even he himself doesn't know whether he is right or wrong.

That night, the night was dark, and a dim light in the dark sky was hanging on the willow branches. Through the vermilion door wall and the path of rice paddies, the dim light of light swayed left and right, shrouded in faint shadows. When the wind blew, the whizzing cold .

At the end of the day, the night guards inside and outside the prison of the Ministry of Criminal Justice couldn't help taking a nap. Finally, a mountain black jade ring fell in front of his eyes, which caused the guards who guarded the gate to be shocked, bowed, and opened the prison door carefully.

The huge criminal prison is empty, and the tightly-fitted skylight opens to one side. No matter how high the light is, it is difficult to project into this gloomy and humid prison.

He stood still at the door of the innermost cell, and by the light of the oil lamp on the head of the cell, he could clearly see the people inside the cell.

Xianzonghe's back was hunched, and his whole body looked like he had just been fished out of a dye vat. He was glowing red, and blood dripped down his temples, merging with the water stains from the broken prison uniform, and he ran away in a fright when he hit the ground. Rats that were still feeding around his knees.

"Xianzonghe." The dim light was blocked by someone at this moment, Xianzonghe in the cell raised his head and saw his dazzling white robe against the light.

"Your Majesty's visit, what's the use of it..." Xian Zonghe coughed twice, bloodstains faintly oozing from the corners of his mouth.

He waved his hand slightly, and looked at the prisoner with a cold face. As soon as the prisoner understood, he put the oil lamp on the nearby wooden table, then opened the cell door, and retreated to the outer gate to wait.

At this time, when he stepped into the prison door, he suddenly had the urge to laugh - he had stayed in this prison before.

Dim light lingered around him, and he stood alone in the dark cell, with the racked instruments of torture and extinguished coals behind him, a little chilly and terrifying.

"I didn't expect that the last person who came to see me was Lord Hou." Xianzonghe smiled, and this smile was quite thought-provoking.

He stepped forward lightly, only wanting to ask Xianzong Ha one thing, "You really stole the spirit rhinoceros?"

Whether it is true or false, after a trip through the muddy water, it is difficult even for him to slowly filter it out. Instead, it is better to directly ask the person involved while he is still alive.

A strange look flashed across Xianzonghe's eyes, "It was Master Hou who ordered me to steal the spirit rhinoceros. At this moment, Master Hou came to question me..."

Xianzonghe supported the haystack and stood up, after the muffled sound of the chain, there was intermittent coughing.

He was inexplicably surprised, his eyes were wide open, his heart twitched suddenly, and he didn't notice the expression on Xianzong Ha's face.

"Who ordered you to slander me?" He said coldly, how could he be willing to be accused and questioned for something he hadn't done!

"slander?"

Xianzonghe's eyes suddenly turned cold, and the next moment, he stretched out his hand and grabbed his neck.
