The King's Favor [Rebirth]

"Anyone who has done something wrong will be punished accordingly. Duke He's mansion is no exception, and this king and the emperor are no exception. This king has already done what he should do, and he has no regrets in his final confession to the emperor's brother. "Qi Jingyuan said softly again.

When he said this, his eyes narrowed slightly, and the glow inside suddenly gathered and then dissipated.His gaze was illusory, as if he was looking at a long time ago in time and space.

Xie Linxi felt a little sad.

Because Qi Jingyuan looks very sad now.

"My lord." Xie Linxi called out. He broke the silence in the hall and pulled Qi Jingyuan, who was lost in thought, back from the illusory time and space.

Qi Jingyuan recovered and responded.

Xie Linxi said: "My lord, are you okay?"

"It's fine, it's fine." Qi Jingyuan looked at him and said with a smile, "It's never been better than now."

Xie Linxi: "..."

It wasn't the first time that Qi Jingyuan's words were strange, but as a courtier, it was really difficult for him to ask what was going on in Qi Jingyuan's mind and why he spoke so strangely.

Asking this question seemed to imply that Qi Jingyuan was mentally ill.

Compared to his entanglement, Qi Jingyuan was in a particularly good mood, he said: "It's almost time, you go to interrogate Zuo Min, and settle this matter early."

Xie Linxi responded, and when he turned around, Qi Jingyuan called him, and then said: "Be careful in everything outside the palace, your own safety is the most important thing, don't let me worry about it."

Xie Linxi's heart moved slightly, and after saying yes, she turned and left.

Qi Jingyuan looked at his back with an inexplicable expression.

He never regretted taking Xie Linxi home from the snow, nor did he regret letting Xie Linxi become the commander of the prison.Xie Linxi is not a bird kept in a cage, he has his own sky that he wants to soar.

Xie Linxi has killed people and been tortured before, but he has never done anything harmful to nature, and he doesn't care about others' abuse or fear.

Of course, so did Qi Jingyuan.

What kind of position you stand in, what kind of responsibility you have to bear.

Time and history books will remember everything, history will write their names, posterity will judge what they did.

But sometimes Qi Jingyuan would think, would it be better if Xie Linxi was more stupid, not so smart, and thought of himself more in everything.

It's a pity that Xie Linxi is a fool.

Thinking of this, Qi Jingyuan lowered his eyes with an inexplicable smile inside.

A very shallow smile, shaking in the eyes, floating up and down.

After all, as long as it's Xie Linxi, it's fine.

What Zuo Min committed was easy to find out.

The amount of silver he ignited was not much, a few hundred taels, and it would not cause any splashes in the construction of the Shenglin Tower. No one would notice this at ordinary times. The money is wiped off the accounts.

But Zuo Min absolutely shouldn't, he shouldn't let the craftsmen work day and night, and he shouldn't force Wang Yu, the servant of the Ministry of Industry, to commit suicide in order to cover up his corruption.

Two lives.

Who has only one life, whose life is not life?

The process of Xie Linxi's arrest and interrogation of Zuo Min was very smooth, so smooth that he himself couldn't believe it.

He brought the man to the Heavenly Prison Division, and as soon as the evidence was laid out, Zuo Min confessed everything, including corruption, including forcing Wang Yu to commit suicide.He spoke in great detail, including his inner journey of doing these things.

So much so that after Zuo Min pressed his fingerprints, Xie Linxi looked at the confession and couldn't help but wonder, did someone put a gu on Zuo Min to tell the truth, so that he wouldn't dare to lie, or else he would have to suffer a heart-piercing pain. pain.

Zuo Min looked at him, perhaps it was rare to see the commander of the Heavenly Prison in a trance, so he said coldly, "Who doesn't know the name of the Commander of the Heavenly Prison Xie, I don't want to suffer those punishments."

Xie Linxi looked at him with trembling hands and said: "But you are afraid, I am really curious, what kind of handle Mr. Zuo has in other people's hands, so that he was so frightened that he pleaded guilty so happily. Is there someone else behind Master Zuo?"

"Commander Xie is talking about something that I don't understand. Who else would care about such a small amount of money?" Zuo Min put his hands back into his loose sleeves and said, "In this day, the prison officer is not afraid. Knowing that you will die , will be even more frightened."

"Isn't Commander Xie not afraid?" Zuo Min probably knew his own fate, and said, "Commander Xie seems to have had a lot of glory these years, and his hands are covered with other people's blood. But in the eyes of others, he is just a regent." A mad dog next to Wang will inevitably be thrown out to be cooked by others in the future."

"Commander Xie never thought of leaving a way out for himself?" At the end of the speech, Zuo Min burst out laughing.

Standing beside Xie Linxi, Cheng Shuai was full of anger when he heard this, wishing he could step forward and kick him to death, he said angrily: "The relationship between the prince and the commander is good, don't try to sow discord here."

"Commander Xie, those who are about to die speak kindly." Zuo Min continued with a fearless look: "Since ancient times, when the cunning rabbit dies, the lackey cooks, the birds die, and the good bow is hidden, no one can hide. Think about your own future, don't end up drawing water from the bamboo basket in vain."

Cheng Shuai's black face turned red, showing how angry he was.

Cheng Shuai wanted to say something else, but Xie Linxi raised his hand to stop him.

Xie Linxi looked at Zuo Min with a gentle smile on his face, and he said: "Master Zuo, it is fate that you and I are officials in the same dynasty. For you who are about to die, I also have a piece of advice for you, you are about to die, so do what you say and do. You can do whatever you want without using your brain, but Master Zuo doesn't worry about implicating other people?"

The fearlessness on Zuo Min's face finally turned into panic, and even though he subsided afterwards, Xie Linxi, who had a pair of poisonous eyes, could still see clearly.

Zuo Min forcibly calmed down and said: "I admit what I have committed, and it has nothing to do with my family. The emperor is a wise lord, and he will not implicate my family casually. If Commander Xie wants to threaten me with these things, then You have miscalculated."

Xie Linxi didn't speak. He stood up and randomly took out a short knife from the torture tool, played with it twice, then walked up to Zuo Min, leaned over and whispered: "You all said that I am a mad dog, will I do it?" Will do something out of line, Mr. Zuo can't figure it out."

Fear appeared in Zuo Min's eyes, and his lips trembled as he said, "The Regent will not kill innocent people indiscriminately, nor will he let you do so."

"You know that the prince will not kill innocent people indiscriminately, so you can show off your power in front of him unscrupulously?" Xie Linxi smiled softly and said, "Before he died, Master Zuo was so good at sowing discord, why don't you use his tongue? ?”

Saying this, his dagger hand moved back and forth around Zuo Min's mouth, as if he was looking for an easy place to strike.

Zuo Min was trembling like a sieve, the calm and sarcasm on his face disappeared, he almost broke down and said: "Xie Linxi, if you have the ability, you can kill me directly."

"I'm not as capable as Mr. Zuo, just two people's lives will be lost." Xie Linxi still said with a smile on his face, the short knife in his hand was so bright and frightening.

Zuo Min closed his eyes tightly and bit his mouth tightly.

Xie Linxi sneered, and after he got up and backed away, Zuo Min noticed that the danger subsided, so he opened his eyes and breathed a sigh of relief.

But at that moment, Xie Linxi leaned over suddenly, and the short knife was inserted straight into the gap between the index finger and middle finger of Zuo Min's left hand, and blood flowed out from the gap between the fingers.

Zuo Min looked at Xie Linxi, then at the bleeding fingers, his face was pale, and he passed out as soon as he rolled his eyes.

"Trash, you don't even have the guts of a sesame seed, and you don't know where you got the confidence to provoke right and wrong." Cheng Shuai, who was on the side, curled his lips in disdain when he saw this scene.

When the short knife was between the fingers, at most it would cut the skin of the fingers, and it would not hurt the muscles and bones at all.

This was just to scare him, and he fainted like this.

Xie Linxi straightened up and said: "Take care of him, I'll go back to the palace." After saying this, he paused and said: "Don't let anyone approach him. If he has anything to say, wait until I come back."

"Commander, do you want to pour a pot of salt water on him to wake him up and continue the interrogation?" Cheng Shuai said, "He's a solicitor, so it's too cheap for him to suffer such a little injury."

"Everything that needs to be said has been said, so what else is there to interrogate?" Xie Linxi said.

Cheng Shuai looked at him hesitantly, the main thing was not a question of whether to interrogate or not, but an attitude should be made.

Xie Linxi knew what he was worried about, it was nothing more than fearing that today's incident would spread to Qi Jingyuan's ears and cause unnecessary suspicion and misunderstanding.

Xie Linxi knew it would be impossible, but she didn't know how to explain the sixth sense of men to her subordinates, so she just waved her hands and said softly, "The prince is not that kind of person."

Cheng Shuai felt relieved when he heard this. If the leader of his family dared to say that, it proved that he had a very close relationship with the prince. He believed Xie Linxi's words, and also believed that Qi Jingyuan was not a suspicious person.

Xie Linxi could guess what he was thinking from his expression, but there was no way to explain this kind of thing, and he didn't want to explain it, so he just left as if he didn't see it.

In the palace, Xie Linxi explained the results of the interrogation to Qi Jingyuan in detail, including Zuo Min's provocation and Cheng Shuai's worries.

The Division of Heavenly Prison was established by Qi Jingyuan, even if he didn't mention it, someone else would mention it.

Furthermore, there is no need to hide these things.

Qi Jingyuan nodded after listening to his narration, and then recruited Jin Yi, and sent him to send Zuo Min's confession to the little emperor, and asked the little emperor if he had any thoughts on how to deal with Zuo Min.

After Jin Yi left with Zuo Min's accusation, Qi Jingyuan fixedly stared at Xie Linxi.

Xie Linxi was so watched that he wanted to touch his face, and finally he couldn't help but said: "My lord, is there something dirty on my face?"

Qi Jingyuan nodded and said, "Indeed."

Xie Linximo, he had washed his hands before coming here, and his face in the bronze mirror was also clean and handsome. It was just a casual remark, but he did not expect to get an affirmative answer.

Qi Jingyuan's response didn't count, and he walked up to him calmly and said solemnly: "You can't see it, my king will wipe it for you."

After saying this, he went straight to it, Xie Linxi's words of refusal stuck in his throat, and he swallowed it back.

Xie Linxi rushed to touch her face with warm fingers back and forth, wiping away the traces that did not exist at all.

He was slightly embarrassed, and after a while, Qi Jingyuan's smiling voice sounded: "Okay."

Leaving slowly like a lingering hand.

The author has something to say: This is the earliest and most emotional drama I have written recently, really.
