The Return of the Demon

"Geng Jing, I asked you to take good care of Ning Chen, and this is how you do it?"

"I don't care what method you use? Ning Chen must eat."

Geng Jing felt so bitter... He was good at prying the prisoners open and letting them tell the truth.

But prying others open and letting them eat was too difficult for him.

"Minister, obey the order!"

Although it was difficult, he had no right to say no to the emperor's order.

Emperor Xuan waved his hand and said, "Okay, you go down!"

After Geng Jing left, Emperor Xuan said, "Quan Sheng, go and find the prince."

"Yes!"

Eunuch Quan walked away in small steps.

Emperor Xuan looked at the poem on the rice paper and said to himself, "This kid is really talented. How did he do it at such a young age?"

"But he should let him know my identity."

Emperor Xuan knew very well that Geng Jing had no way to let Ning Chen eat.

From what happened in the past few days, this kid is a stubborn donkey.

Ning Chen's personality is not suitable for court party struggles... It is more suitable for the Supervisory Department.

This kid is brave and resourceful, but he is too stubborn and not afraid of power. It is most appropriate to put him in the Supervisory Department... He can take over Geng Jing's position in the future.

......

The next day, Geng Jing brought a few people to the cell where Ning Chen was imprisoned.

Seeing that the food on the ground was untouched, he was also very troubled.

He asked his men to open the cell door.

"Lan Xing, come out!"

Ning Chen looked at him and asked lightly: "Are you going to Caishikou?"

Geng Jing nodded and pointed to the food on the ground, "Last meal, are you sure you don't want to eat something?"

"After waiting for so many days, it's finally my turn." Ning Chen stood up and walked out, stretched out his hands, and signaled the other party to put handcuffs and shackles on him.

Geng Jing frowned, "Are you really not afraid of death?"

"If I say I am afraid, can you not kill me?"

Geng Jing: "......"

"Are you sure you don't want to eat something?"

Ning Chen shook his head, "No, when I die and become a fierce ghost, I will go to your house to beg for food at night."

Geng Jing's mouth twitched, but he still admired him in his heart.

Before dying, most prisoners would be so scared that their legs and feet would go limp, and some would even urinate and excrete urine.

Ning Chen was so young, but he was not afraid of life and death, which was rare.

Geng Jing said, "Lan Xing, you won't be handcuffed or shackled... But I have to warn you, don't play tricks, your little skills are nothing in front of me."

Ning Chen nodded, "I know!"

This man was wearing a purple fish scale suit and had a high position. Needless to say, his skills were definitely a master among masters.

"Let's go!"

Geng Jing took Ning Chen out of the prison.

Ning Chen greedily breathed in a few breaths of fresh air. After being locked up in a dark and cramped cell for half a month, he had forgotten what fresh air smelled like?

Outside the prison, there was a carriage parked.

"Lan Xing, get in?"

Ning Chen was a little confused, "Shouldn't we use a prisoner's carriage?"

Geng Jing didn't explain.

Ning Chen didn't ask any more questions and jumped into the carriage.

The carriage drove out of the Supervisory Department and headed east.

Ning Chen heard the crowds of people outside, it was very lively.

"Don't look around!"

Ning Chen wanted to lift the curtain to take a look, but was stopped by Geng Jing.

"Are we almost at Caishikou?" Ning Chen asked, and without waiting for Geng Jing to answer, he continued to ask: "What's your name? Where do you live?"

Geng Jing looked at him without saying anything.

Ning Chen grinned and said: "Don't worry, I don't mean anything else... I'm just worried that I'll become a ghost after I die and won't be able to find you."

Geng Jing pursed his lips and still didn't say anything.

About half an hour later, the carriage stopped.

"Get off!"

Geng Jing said, and jumped off the carriage first.

Ning Chen lifted the curtain of the carriage and walked out, and couldn't help but be stunned.

This is not Caishikou, but Tianfulou.

Moreover, the entire Tianfulou is guarded by the imperial guards.

Ning Chen looked at Geng Jing with a puzzled look.

Geng Jing didn't explain, "Follow me!"

Ning Chen jumped off the carriage, with a question mark on his forehead.

"What does this mean? Why did you bring me to Tianfulou?"

"Is the scumbag the Fifth Prince going to punish me and behead me here?"

Geng Jing's face changed, and he scolded in a low voice: "Ning Chen, watch your words."

Ning Chen's expression froze, "It seems that you already knew who I was?"

"But that's right, if the Supervisory Department can't even find out this, it is not qualified to be the emperor's exclusive lackey."

Geng Jing's face sank, he really wanted to shut Ning Chen's mouth, his words were too harsh.

Ning Chen took two quick steps and caught up with Geng Jing, saying: "Although I concealed my identity, there is one thing I didn't lie about... I was indeed ordered by Ning Ziming to hold the Fifth Prince hostage and beat him."

Geng Jing's mouth twitched, and he couldn't help but say: "Shut up."

"What I said is true."

Geng Jing pretended not to hear.

"Bah...What Supervisory Department is fair and selfless, isn't it just officials protecting each other?"

Geng Jing turned around and gave him a cold look.

Look at your sister, I am a dying man, how can I be afraid of you? Ning Chen complained in his heart.

Geng Jing took Ning Chen to the door of a private room on the second floor of Tianfu Building.

Ning Chen frowned. This private room was the one where Tian Xuan invited him to dinner before.

This fifth prince has a strong desire for revenge. He will get back where he suffered a loss.

Ning Chen glanced at the two people wearing red fish scale clothes next to him. The skills of these two people should be average.

When he sees the fifth prince, he will grab the knife and chop him up.

If a scum like the Fifth Prince is allowed to live in the world, how many people will suffer? Anyway, I am going to die, so I will drag him to hell with me.

Ning Chen was silently planning in his heart.

At this time, the two imperial guards guarding the door pushed open the door of the box and motioned Geng Jing and others to go in.

Ning Chen followed in and was stunned on the spot.

He did not see the Fifth Prince.

In the box, three people sat around the table, one was Tianxuan, one was Xuanhong, and the other was General Chen.

Sissy stood respectfully behind Tianxuan.

"Uncle? General Chen?"

Ning Chen was surprised.

As for Xuanhong, Ning Chen was too lazy to pay attention to him. He was a coward and was not worth his attention.

The prince noticed the disgust in Ning Chen's eyes when he looked at him, and couldn't help but lower his head and smile bitterly.

Ning Chen looked at the delicious food on the table and said with a smile: "Uncle, General Chen, it seems that you know that I am going to be beheaded. You have prepared such a big table of beheading food for me... How nice!"

Geng Jing shouted in a deep voice: "Ning Chen, don't be so presumptuous!"

After saying that, Geng Jing walked quickly to the table and knelt down in front of Emperor Xuan, "Your Majesty, I, Geng Jing, pay my respects to Your Majesty!"

Ning Chen's eyes widened suddenly, and his mouth opened so wide that an egg could be stuffed in it. He was dumbfounded.

Your Majesty?

Isn't that the emperor?

Uncle is the emperor?

The Emperor Xuan and others looked at Ning Chen's reaction with interest.

Geng Jing also felt relieved. This kid is fearless, but now he is scared silly, right?

It took Ning Chen a long time to come back to his senses, and he asked in shock: "Uncle, aren't you the Prince of Fu? How did you become the emperor? Did you usurp the throne?"

This sentence frightened everyone except Emperor Xuan so much that their faces turned pale and cold sweats came out.

Is this guy really brave? He blurted out such heinous words as treason.
