The reason why Zhao Xun so simply refused to work for the East Palace was because he wanted to show it to the civil and military officials of the court, and even to Emperor Xianlong.
Now Zhao Xun will be pushed to the forefront even if he doesn't want to be in the limelight.
Who told him to be popular?
After enjoying the benefits brought by being popular, you will naturally have to endure the questioning eyes of others.
Zhao Xun didn't care about this, but he knew that the battle for the reserve was very sensitive, and he would have to take a stand sooner or later.
If there is an ambiguity between him and Donggong, the final consequences will be very serious.
King Qi would even draw a clear line with him.
Just like Zhao Xun said, King Qi himself doesn't care. But Zhao Xun cares about King Qi's daughter, Li Taiping, the head of Yonghe County.
Before this, Zhao Xun did not believe in the so-called love at first sight, thinking that it was something created by literati. .
But from the moment he saw Li Taiping while swimming in Qujiang Lake, Zhao Xun understood that love at first sight was real.
The reason why he didn't believe this before was because he hadn't met the right person yet.
The moment he saw Li Taiping, Zhao Xun knew that Li Taiping was the person he was looking for.
Everything else seems unimportant in comparison.
As long as he could live with Li Taiping, he would be content.
So even for Li Taiping, he had to be on good terms with King Qi, at least to save his face.
That is his future Lao Taishan, and it is not good to keep him apart until death.
So from this point of view, the prince has lost.
As for whether Donggong will hate Zhao Xun or even take revenge on him.
Zhao Xun felt that there would definitely be grudges, but Zhao Xun didn't care.
As for revenge, I'm afraid there won't be one in the short term.
As Zhao Xun said, the current Prince of the East Palace cannot save himself from crossing the river like a clay bodhisattva. He has to worry about how to avoid being suspected by Emperor Xianlong, and how can he bother to trouble Zhao Xun.
Of course, once the seeds of hatred are planted, they will surely take root and sprout.
Zhao Xun knew that this day would come sooner or later, but he had enough time to prepare, so there was nothing to be afraid of.
...
...
After returning from Dongshi, Zhao Xun locked himself in the Duke's Mansion.
I spent the whole day either writing or telling stories to my sister Zhao Danshu.
Little Lolita likes to crawl into the arms of her elder brother Zhao Xun and enjoy the rare and comfortable time.
Zhao Xun also enjoyed it.
The more time he spent out, the more he missed spending time with his family.
This kind of day can make people feel warm and warm.
There is not so much intrigue and interest games.
Simple life, simple family love, so good.
...
...
Of course, happy times are always short-lived.
In the blink of an eye, the ten days' rest time was up, and Zhao Xun had to go to the bad guys' Yamen on duty.
Although the bad commander Feng Hao has now led a group of elites to the Western Regions, they still deserve their dues.
Otherwise, you will feel like crying without tears when deducting the moon silver.
When he saw Wangcai again, Wangcai still had a sad face.
Zhao Xun stepped forward and patted him on the shoulder and said, "Why, it's been ten days, and you still remember what happened in Dongshi that day?"
Wangcai had a bitter look on his face and sighed helplessly: "Brother Mingyun, how can you forget this kind of thing so easily? You really, really don't leave any room. In the future, if Dong Gong really ascends the throne, , what should you do."
Zhao Xun spread his hands and said: "He hasn't ascended the throne yet. Do you know what the most dangerous job in the world is, which is to be a prince. If you don't ascend the throne, you will no longer be a king. Don't worry, I But practitioners can do divination. I also asked Sixth Senior Brother to help me divination, and this prince cannot become the True Dragon Emperor."
"Shh!"
Seeing the two of them talking about this kind of topic, Jia Xingwen quickly made a gesture of silence, and then pulled the two of them aside.
"Are you desperate for your life? We are talking about royal family affairs here."
"It doesn't matter, there's no one here."
"Do you know that walls have ears? It's really not a worry."
Jia Xingwen scolded the two of them before giving up.
On the third day, we approached the official office together and sat down at our seats.
"Now that Mr. Feng is not in the Yamen, I always feel like we are leaderless, which is weird."
"Yes, when Mr. Feng was here, I felt that there was a backbone and a sense of motivation in everything I did. But now that Mr. Feng is gone, it feels a little less interesting."
In the Delinquent Office, a group of delinquents were chatting away.
"Hey, have you heard? Recently, Jingzhao Mansion has received a lot of reports, all of which were caused by someone in the family suddenly dying suddenly. The death was very horrific. There are rumors that it may be related to the demon sect's evil objects."
"The Demonic Sect's Yinwu? But Chang'an City is a place of supreme strength and solitude. How did the Demonic Sect's Yinwu sneak in?"
"It's hard to say. They must have their own plans. Do you think this happened as soon as Mr. Feng left? Was it planned by someone?"
"Gene Era"
"It's hard to say. If this is really the case, I can only say that someone is going to make a big move."
"It's been such an eventful time. A few days ago, I heard that monsters were raging along the southeast coast, and even the Dongyue Sword Pavilion entered the scene."
"Weren't you suppressed by that Zhao Xun?"
"Zhao Xun? If he hadn't relied on the disciples in the academy, he would have been able to suppress him."
These bad people were chatting happily, but they didn't know that Zhao Xun had already appeared beside them.
He grabbed the disdainful villain's right arm and twisted it so that his arm was dislocated.
"It's best to look around when you're gossiping, otherwise you'll be in trouble."
After saying that, Zhao Xun turned and left.
"Mingyun, you are still the same, with a bad temper."
Although he is now a criminal in Fei Pao, Jia Xingwen has always maintained a peaceful attitude and tried not to conflict with his colleagues.
But Zhao Xun is different.
"I will not offend others unless they offend me. If someone offends me, I will offend them."
Zhao Xun dropped a sentence and then changed the subject: "Let's not talk about these troublesome things. Just now I heard them talking about how many people in the community were injured, and it seemed to be the work of the devil's sect. Is this possible?"
"I have heard about it too. However, the Jingzhao Mansion is quite taboo on this matter, and the information was blocked in a timely manner, so there is no substantial news."
"Why is Jingzhao Mansion in charge of this matter?"
Zhao Xun felt confused.
“Shouldn’t bad people take over?”
"Ming Yun, Mr. Feng is not in the capital now, and countless yamen are trying to compete for credit. Just give others a way to survive. If all the cases in Chang'an City are handled by us bad guys, how can other families survive?"
Jia Xingwen smiled helplessly: "Besides, if Jingzhao Mansion really can't handle the case, it will eventually be transferred to us. I know you want to handle the case, but there's no need to be in such a hurry."
...
...
You never know which one will come first, tomorrow or the accident.
When the bad guy Zhang Huan died tragically and suddenly, all the bad guys refused to believe it.
This includes Jia Xingwen.
Jia Xingwen has been a bad person for more than ten years, but he has few good brothers.
This Zhang Huan counts as one.
His good brother died tragically, and Jia Xingwen naturally collapsed emotionally.
Zhao Xun and Wang Cai were comforting each other, but it didn't help at all.
Jia Xingwen cried loudly, like a tearful man.
"Brother Jia, people cannot be resurrected after death, so please forgive me and accept the change."
Zhao Xun patted Jia Xingwen on the shoulder and said: "Zhang Huan's spirit in heaven definitely doesn't want to see you like this. Besides, what we have to do now is to find his murderer so that we can avenge Zhang Huan's brother."
Hearing this, Jia Xingwen's crying stopped abruptly, and then he clenched his fists and said sternly: "Yes, revenge, we must avenge Zhang Huan."
"That's right, Brother Jia."
Zhao Xun nodded and said: "I heard that the way Zhang Huan died was very similar to the way people died recently, as if they had been bitten by wild beasts. And it is unlikely that wild beasts would sneak into Chang'an City, so I I suspect it was a monster. Let’s go to Jingzhao Mansion first and ask about the situation.”
Zhao Xun has handled so many cases and has long developed a habit of handling and investigating cases.
The reason why he said this was because he hoped that Brother Jia Xingwen Jia could calm down.
After all, it's impossible to stay sane if you're emotionally unstable.
"Okay, let's go to Jingzhao Mansion now."
Wangcai took the lead and rushed out, making Zhao Xun dumbfounded.
...
...
Chang'an.
Jingzhao Mansion.
Jingzhao Yin Hanfeng looked sad.
Recently, more and more people have reported to the police, and they are all murder cases.
Without exception, these people who died tragically had marks of being bitten by wild beasts, and their death was extremely horrific.
If it's just one or two murders, that's fine, but if there are dozens or hundreds of murders in a row, who can withstand it?
Jingzhao Yin Hanfeng only felt that the pressure on himself was too great.
You must know that he is not a local official, but a capital official.
Local officials can say that the mountains are high and the emperor is far away, and they don't care about this.
But the official in Beijing couldn't do it.
At the emperor's feet, every move will be watched.
If he said something unpleasant, he might have farted, and the person in the palace would smell it in the blink of an eye.
According to the laws of the Great Zhou Dynasty, there are requirements for time and detection rate for murder cases.
At the feet of the Emperor, more than a hundred murder cases occurred in Chang'an City. If they cannot be solved for a long time, where will the Emperor's face be?
Han Feng felt like an ant on a hot pot, about to be fried.
"My lord, my lord, something is seriously wrong."
"what happened again?"
Han Feng felt a headache as soon as he heard this sentence.
Something bad happened?
What's wrong?
It's already like this, how can it be worse?
"A bad person is here and wants to see you."
"What?"
Han Feng couldn't believe his ears.
What do bad people do in Jingzhao Mansion?
It can be said that the two yamen of Badman and Jingzhao Mansion have always been in harmony with each other.
Although the two yamen occasionally have some business overlap, in fact they can be handled relatively properly.
Only this time, the bad guy Feng Hao was ordered to go to the Western Region to stabilize the situation. Han Feng felt that an opportunity had come, so he robbed the bad guy of some cases to handle.
But this is not a big deal, right? Is it necessary to raise an army to punish someone?
"If you don't see me, just say that I am busy with official duties."
Han Feng waved his hand and said impatiently.
"Well..."
"What's wrong?"
Seeing that the yamen servant was still refusing to retreat, Han Feng raised his eyebrows and asked impatiently.
"It's the eldest son of Duke Cheng, Zhao Xun and Zhao Mingyun who are personally leading the team."
When he heard the word "Zhao Xun", Han Feng's head went crazy as if he had heard the word "God of Plague".
Who is Zhao Xun? He is a man who single-handedly turned the entire city of Chang'an upside down.
In Han Feng's impression, Zhao Xun is now a popular figure in Chang'an City.
Why did he come to Jingzhao Mansion? He was probably here to cause trouble.
"Sir, this Zhao Mingyun is not easy to get along with. Since he has brought people here, he must be fully prepared. I'm afraid that a few words will make him angry, which will not be good. You see..."
The yamen servant looked aggrieved. He was just a messenger. When the gods fought and the fish suffered, he would suffer.
"That's all, I'll go meet him for a while."
Han Feng stood up angrily and walked toward the lobby.
...
...
"Calm down, brother Mingyun, you must calm down for a while. After all, this is their territory, and we can't be too high-profile."
Wangcai reminded Zhao Xun repeatedly, for fear that he would do something outrageous.
With Zhao Xun's character, he would not find it strange even if he did anything.
After all, there is nothing that a person who dares to refuse directly even the Prince of the East Palace does not dare to do?
"Okay, okay, I'm not stupid. Is there any need to conflict with others? We came to Jingzhao Mansion to understand the situation, not to fight."
Zhao Xun was dumbfounded.
What happened to Wangcai? Do you not believe him so much?
"Well, just calm down."
"Master Jing Zhaoyin has arrived!"
Just after hearing a chant, I saw Jingzhao Yin Hanfeng Shi Shiran walking towards the lobby surrounded by his confidants.
Zhao Xun took a closer look and saw that Mr. Han had a good face, kind eyes and a smile on his face.
"Mr. Zhao, what kind of wind has brought you here?"
Han Feng said leisurely while stroking his beard.
"Well, Mr. Han is too polite. I came here to ask about the recent murders in Chang'an."
When Zhao Xun inspected Jiangnan Road, he had the title of imperial envoy on his head, but it was only temporary. After returning to Chang'an, his status as an imperial envoy disappeared.
With his current identity as a crimson-robed delinquent, there is really no big problem in calling himself a lower official in front of Jing Zhaoyin.
"A murder case? Young Master Zhao is talking about a case in which a monster hurt someone, right?"
Han Feng said with a straight face: "This case is now being investigated by the Jingzhao Mansion. Why does Young Master Zhao also want to help?"
Zhao Xun said quickly: "Mr. Han, please don't misunderstand me. I have no intention of overstepping my authority. It's just that a delinquent in my delinquent office has died tragically, and his death condition is very similar to that of other people who died tragically. I want to ask and compare." two."
"I see."
Seeing that Zhao Xun was not here to cause trouble, Han Feng finally breathed a sigh of relief.
As long as you're not here to cause trouble, that's fine.
"Those corpses are now stored in the morgue. If Mr. Zhao wants to see them, please do so."
"Master Han, won't you come with us?"
"No, no, no."
Han Feng waved his hands repeatedly and said: "I can't see those things. Mr. Zhao can just go and see them by himself. There is no need to see outsiders."
...
