The emperor was at ease in the dining hall, and he even knew the dialects of several places! The conversation was about both meat and vegetables, and the entire dining hall was filled with joy as he laughed. Everyone even looked at him with a smile and listened to every word he said.
Shen Hao was also watching and listening.
After all, he is the one who survives the royal examination. He does not need to be taught by others. He can easily master the skills of serving his subordinates and integrating into them.
It can be predicted that the emperor's reputation as a courteous corporal, a benevolent man, and a loving soldier will quickly spread throughout the Jingjiu Dynasty after this meal. Is an emperor who can eat at the same table with the lowest-level soldiers and laugh and talk a good emperor? At least most people would find such an emperor very friendly.
To use a word from another world to describe it, it would be: down-to-earth.
Shen Hao concluded that the reason why Emperor Shu Neng behaved so naturally was because he indeed had the talent of a superior person and his charisma was overwhelming. On the other hand, because he was not favored by the upper class in his early years and instead mingled among businessmen in the market, he developed a "very oily" temperament.
"Sir, you are so good!" Wang Yiming and several deputy commanders sat next to Shen Hao. They all had food, but Shen Hao was the only one who really devoured it. The rest were just pretending. are eating.
In fact, the food tastes really good, so it is understandable that Shen Hao eats it so deliciously.
"What's a clever trick? Shut your mouth, eat by yourself, and after eating, go to the dungeon and keep an eye on it. His Majesty will definitely go there as soon as possible after dinner. If something goes wrong over there, be careful with your head! "
What a brilliant idea? Doesn't it mean that the method of coaxing the emperor is clever? This is useful, you say? Shen Hao curled his lips inwardly. Don't the superiors like the tune of "having fun with the people"? He copied it and used it directly. The effect is absolutely guaranteed.
After the meal was over, the emperor sat in the dining hall for a while, chatting a lot with the soldiers around him. It was too late to leave the dining hall.
"I won't go to your palace, go directly to the dungeon." He waved away the deputy commanders of Black Flag Camp, and the emperor led his personal guards and Shen Hao to the dungeon of Black Flag Camp.
The emperor does not want to follow many people in the past, so the people below will naturally not have any objections. The inside and outside of Black Flag Camp had been searched several times by the Forbidden Army, and the manpower defense had also been temporarily reinforced. There was no need to worry about anything else along the way.
Walking to the door, he waved his hand and did not let Wang Yiming and others who were guarding the door kneel down and salute. They had spent too much time outside in the past, and the emperor wanted to quickly see the person he hated being reduced to a prisoner. .
"Your Majesty, the dungeon is not a good place. It will inevitably be bad inside. Your Majesty, please be mentally prepared." Shen Hao followed half a step behind and warned in a low voice.
The emperor hummed without looking back, nor did he pause. However, when he crossed the last large iron gate, he clearly shrank his neck. This was the instinctive reaction of most people when they smelled an unpleasant smell. Shen Hao was like this when he first joined Xuanqing Guard. Later, he got used to it after doing more tasks.
"Shen Hao, are you sure that people locked in here won't be directly smoked to death?" The emperor had been reminded by Shen Hao in advance. Although this sudden blow hurt his nose, he was mentally prepared. So this is just a joke and not meant to be reproachful at all.
Shen Hao smiled and said: "Your Majesty, please don't worry that fumigation will not kill anyone. Moreover, this place is for people to suffer. Compared with other methods here, the smell that hits the nose can be ignored."
"Hahaha, they say that your Xuanqing Guard dungeon is like purgatory, and your Black Flag Camp dungeon is a purgatory within purgatory. I want to see if it is really as mysterious as the rumors say."
"Your Majesty, please." Shen Hao took it as the emperor's praise and refused to answer. Anyway, everything will be clear once you enter, and everyone will have their own opinions. In addition, Shen Hao felt that soon the emperor would not be in the mood to think about these things.
Entering the dungeon, the first thing you see is the jailer kneeling on the ground. After the emperor waved his hand and retreated, Shen Hao led him slowly inside, introducing the situation in the dungeon as he walked.
The main purpose is to introduce the people in each cell. For example, three of the most famous "Twelve Stars" in Yueying Tower were captured alive this time. Li Xinghe is not counted, it is included in the pile of names of those who died with their heads cut off. As for the dog, it is now tied up in a corner of the dungeon, and the cell leader is personally taking care of it. It is given water and liquid food every day, and is not allowed to let go of the Soul Calming Talisman or the lock.
"Very good. What are you going to do with these people?"
"Replying to Your Majesty, everyone in Yueying Tower has committed an unforgivable crime and can only die. Moreover, the crime is so serious that the chief culprit is also lenient. It would be more appropriate to behead him in half."
In fact, there are no less than a hundred ways to kill people in the Xuanqing Guards. Even Shen Hao would frown after hearing many of the methods of death, such as "Human Wax". If he was not in a hurry, Shen Hao would never use these methods, and it was consistent with Shen Hao's behavior. Contrary to the concept.
In Shen Hao's eyes, the Yueying Tower itself was far less sinful than the evil monks or most of the evil thieves in the hands of the Black Flag Battalion. Cutting them off in half was considered a favor to the emperor. Of course, if the emperor feels that cutting these guys in half is still too cheap, Shen Hao will not be stubborn and will find someone to make other arrangements to ensure that the emperor is satisfied.
However, Yang Shu is obviously not a person who likes killing. He has not studied "how to kill a person cruelly". The biggest hatred in my heart is "I want him to die!" As for the way to die, it is the same as ordinary people, either beheading, beheading, or being cut into pieces with a thousand cuts. He didn't understand the tricks played by the killers in the Xuanqing Guard.
"Well, let's do it like this." Yang Shu nodded when he heard the word "cut in half." In his opinion, this method of death was enough to calm his anger. However, Ji Ji, who had deceived him and treated him like a fool during those years, could not just be cut in half, but could be cut into pieces with a thousand cuts to relieve the hatred in his heart.
"Where's Binge?"
"In the innermost cell, Tianzi No. 1. Your Majesty, please come this way." Shen Hao waved his hand, and Wang Yiming and others behind him understood the situation and stopped following. After all, the scene where the emperor vented his anger was not so dignified. With fewer people watching, there would be less scruples. Even Wang Yiming was eager to join in the fun.
So under the guidance of Shen Hao, those who finally walked into the Tianzi No. 1 prison cell were two other people besides Shen Hao and the emperor, a leader of the forbidden army and a personal eunuch and bodyguard.
Shen Hao walked in front along the way. This time he pushed open the door of Tianzi No. 1 cell. After walking in, he turned around. His eyes seemed to be respectful and never left the emperor's face. He had to distinguish carefully and pay attention to the emperor. His expression is related to the basis of whether the subsequent plan will be carried out.
"Huh?" Yang Shu's attention was originally focused on Ji Ji who was trapped on the stone pillar in the middle of the cell, but after he took two more steps, he obviously stopped and the expression on his face also changed: first He was stunned, then confused, and finally a glimmer of light flashed in his eyes.
Shen Hao saw these micro-expressions and secretly breathed a sigh of relief. It seemed that the sulfate essence he buried underground in the cell was effective?
However, this requires further confirmation, which is to call the black beast tattoo in your heart. Because according to previous experience, the Black Beast Tattoo did not show its face when approaching the emperor and just pretended to be dead. If the sulfur essence in the underground was effective and the one attached to the Emperor was temporarily shielded, then the Black Beast Tattoo would also react. Give it a try, firstly to be sure, and secondly to test whether the black beast tattoo is lying.
So Shen Hao asked in his mind: "Is sulfonate effective?"
After asking, Black Beast Tattoo immediately responded with the feedback emotion: joy.
