With Yan Le saying hello in advance, Zhao Gao received preferential treatment from the jailer when he arrived at Xianyang Prison.
Even the cell was not particularly far from the cell where Ran Fang Fusu was.
As for Zhao Gao, there were many people coming and going in the cell every day, and Ran Fang did not notice him.
But when Hu Hai saw Zhao Gao, he immediately went up to him and leaned on the railing with a very aggrieved expression.
"Sir, you are finally here, finally come to pick me up."
"The food in this prison is terrible! Come on, let's get out quickly."
As he said that, he stood at the door of the cell, waiting for the jailer to open the door, and he wanted to go out immediately.
Unexpectedly, Zhao Gao walked in.
It wasn't until the jailer locked the door that Hu Hai realized something was wrong.
"Sir, why are you doing this?"
A trace of helplessness flashed across Zhao Gao's face. He stood there looking at Hu Hai and smiled bitterly: "Second Young Master, the servants have also been imprisoned."
"Your Majesty found out that those people were all found for you by your slaves. He thought that I was the instigator of this matter, so he ordered the slaves to be imprisoned as well."
After hearing this, Hu Hai sat on the ground with despairing eyes, as if he still couldn't figure out how things could develop to this point?
Obviously everything was fine before, and with Zhao Gao helping him make plans, he could always get what he wanted no matter what.
But now?
Not only was he imprisoned in Xianyang Prison, but Zhao Gao was also imprisoned, so what hope did he have in the future?
"Sir, my father won't really lock me here for the rest of my life, will he?"
"It's really uncomfortable here. I want to leave Xianyang Prison. Please think of a way."
Zhao Gao's eyes flashed with a hint of haze, and then he pulled Hu Hai's sleeve and glanced in Ran Fang's direction.
"Second Young Master, please keep your voice down. Your Majesty will not allow you or me to reveal our identities."
"Then Ran Fang is also very thoughtful. What if he knows that you and I are in prison, and he frames you and me in order to help Mr. Su?"
"Relax, His Majesty loves you. After a while, the matter will be investigated clearly, and he will let you and I go out."
Seeing that Hu Hai was still unwilling, and even had some anger on his face, he continued to persuade: "Second Young Master, don't worry, I've already taken care of what's coming. Life won't be that difficult these days."
Hearing this, Hu Hai's face looked better.
He sniffed his clothes with some disgust, frowned and said, "Sir, you are so thoughtful, these clothes almost stink."
"With sir here, I feel relieved."
After saying that, he sat on the straw couch peacefully, as if he was immune to this kind of life.
Zhao Gao, on the other hand, looked in the direction of Ran Fang, his eyes unclear as to what he was thinking.
In the cell next door, Feng Xiao came to Ran Fang very happily with a bottle of wine.
As soon as he saw Ran Fang, he couldn't wait to step forward, completely losing the restraint he had when he first came.
He put the jug on Ran Fang's table, and his voice could not contain his excitement. "Sir, the refined salt case is exactly as you expected. Your Majesty found Zhao Gao."
"I heard that His Majesty also imprisoned Zhao Gao in Xianyang Prison. I guess he will arrive tomorrow."
Ran Fang opened the wine bottle and took a sip. It was better than what Zhang Han brought last time.
After smelling it, he put the lid back on and asked Fusu to put the wine bottle on the shelf next to it.
This thing is not common, he wants to save it and taste it slowly.
"Why wait until tomorrow?"
As soon as Feng Xiao saw Ran Fang asking this question, he knew that he didn't quite understand the affairs of the DPRK.
With a wave of his hand, he took the initiative to explain to him: "Zhao Gao is a popular person in front of His Majesty. Although he was found this time, the mastermind is still the second son. He is guilty of lax discipline at most."
"Given your Majesty's love for Zhao Gao, I'm afraid he will be imprisoned in Xianyang Prison and taught a lesson. This matter will be considered a thing of the past."
"After all, the Second Young Master is also His Majesty's child. Can he really do anything to Hu Hai for this matter?"
Ran Fang also understands this truth, but he just can't figure it out.
He pondered for a moment and said: "Since this matter is an investigation by the Tingwei Mansion, they must have found more things with their methods. How come they only let Zhao Gao go to Xianyang Prison temporarily?"
"I remember Xianyang Ling Yan Le, who was a close confidant of Zhao Gao. Then coming to Xianyang Prison would not pose any threat to Zhao Gao, and it would even be better than living in the palace."
"You don't have to wait on anyone, you don't have to worry, and you have someone to take care of you every day. Who doesn't want to live such a leisurely life?"
Zhao Gao heard these words clearly from the next door. Unexpectedly, it was Ran Fang who suspected him first, with a stern look in his eyes.
He turned his head and glanced at Hu Hai, but saw that the expression on Hu Hai's face was already indifferent, and he even gave himself a reassuring look.
It seemed like he was used to this.
After making sure that Hu Hai did not believe Ran Fang's words, he felt relieved.
The conversation over there continued, Feng Xiao sighed, and a trace of sadness appeared between his eyebrows.
"What you said is true, but no one can influence His Majesty's decision."
"Besides, this matter will be investigated by Yan Le, and His Majesty will not allow the Tingwei Mansion to interfere in this matter."
"No one knows what exactly has been found now except His Majesty and Yan Le."
Ran Fang nodded, not surprised by the result.
After all, this matter was not honorable and involved the prince's betrayal of the country.
If this matter is publicized, Hu Hai will have to die to quell public anger in the future.
Your Majesty will not let this matter develop even for the sake of the royal family's face.
He said calmly: "Tingwei Mansion is where Li Si made his fortune, and there will be more or less of his people here."
"But the Xianyang Order was single-handedly promoted by Zhao Gao, and His Majesty also knows it. It belongs to His Majesty. They are far away from the court and will not have any impact on Hu Hai."
"Zhao Gao is indeed a talented person. He can guess His Majesty's thoughts thoroughly."
"As for those insiders in Tingwei Mansion, they dare not say a word to anyone in order to survive. This matter is considered to be in the past."
Hearing this, Hu Hai glanced at Zhao Gao in disbelief, and said with some gratitude: "Sir, it turns out you are in prison because of me."
"Don't worry, sir. Since this Xianyang Order is also working for me, I will treat him well when I go out."
It has to be said that Hu Hai's admiration for Zhao Gao is really blind.
Over there, Feng Xiao heard Ran Fang's words and nodded.
He glanced at Fusu and then said in a low voice: "Sir's guess is good, my master also guessed the same."
"I just received news when I came here that Xianyang ordered Yan Le to send his confidant out of Xianyang."
"It seems that they are heading towards Guanzhong. I don't know what they are doing."
Ran Fang leaned back gently on the railing and said casually: "What can be done is either to destroy the evidence or to create evidence."
