Spring Forest Evening

Join Commander Qin?

Isn't this man a general?

Zhou Heng was a little surprised. Looking at the group of ministers around him, everyone was also quite surprised, but after all, they were all officials, and they reacted quickly. Not long after Lengtouqing finished speaking, there were voices around him one after another. They all asked to join the team to catch the thief, while swearing by gnashing their teeth and swearing:

"I don't know where the insane thieves come from, they dare to be so bold, they must have ulterior motives, hum, they must be arrested tonight to rectify the law of the country, so that they don't smash their corpses into thousands of pieces and exterminate the nine clans , not enough to be indignant!"

"Those who have the ability to send out such dead soldiers must have planned it for a long time, and it must be extremely difficult behind it. Such a wolfish ambition will cause endless troubles, and it must be eliminated quickly. Brothers, we should not be people who are greedy for life and afraid of death!"

"What General Zhu said just now is from the bottom of my heart, as generals, at such a critical juncture, if I don't go up now, when will I wait?"

Amidst the uproar, a fair-skinned man in his thirties who looked like a civil servant suddenly turned his head and asked Shen Fu who was sitting outside the kneeling circle:

"Prince Jing, what do you think?"

Cut, here comes the lip-smacking person. This person looks like a gentleman at first glance. He can't lift his shoulders or hands. Opening his mouth is a big reason, and the saliva will drown you. This is the kind of person he is talking about. Zhou Heng stared at He couldn't help showing a trace of disdain.

It's just that this kind of person is also very lethal. Without seeing what he said, a large group of people around looked over in unison, as if kneeling and waiting for Shen Fu to express his opinion.

Then General Zhu managed to be the first bird just now, and he probably was waiting to be praised. He didn't want to kill another slant in the oblique stab, so he was naturally unwilling to be robbed of the limelight by a civil servant, so he hurried Then say:

"Prince Jing's mansion has been dedicated to serving the country for generations. Naturally, Prince Jing has absolutely no reason to stand idly by, right, my lord?"

These words sounded partly to squeeze the official, but also partly to force Shen Fu to express his opinion. Hearing this, Zhou Heng almost wanted to roll his eyes, so he cursed silently in his heart:

Hmph, the ass was slapped on the horse's leg!Empress Jiang has already personally contacted Prince Jing's mansion, okay?

However, even though he complained in his heart, Zhou Heng had to admit that after all, Empress Jiang was in private contact. If Shen Fu turned his back on the villain, then he would have no choice but to provoke her in public now. Shen Fu was forced to stand in line.

In this way, Empress Jiang didn't have to do anything herself. This bearded military general and that gentle scum civil servant actually joined hands to help her a lot. I don't know if they colluded in advance!

Sure enough, as soon as the surname Zhu said, the crowd kneeling underneath twisted their bodies in a slightly awkward turning posture, waiting for Shen Fu to express his opinion.

Zhou Heng watched, Empress Jiang deliberately made a gesture of covering her mouth with a handkerchief, she seemed to be deeply moved, but with Zhou Heng's current state of mind, no matter how you look at it, she felt that she was covering up. I was afraid that I would laugh out loud on the spot.

Especially next, Shen Fu did get up amidst everyone's expectation, Su Rong bowed to the queen mother and the queen and said:

"Since Commander Qin and your lords are here in the palace, I would like to lead the troops to search Shanglinyuan."

Come on, Queen Jiang, is your belly full of joy now?The majestic Prince Jing's Mansion is finally at your disposal!Zhou Heng thought indignantly.

"Shanglin Court?"

Hearing Shen Fu's words, several voices blurted out at the same time, including the third princess and Empress Jiang. The former shouted out of breath, while the latter was quite surprised. Zhou Heng looked at it, and Empress Jiang's expression did not seem to be fake. She probably didn't expect the exit of the secret passage to be so far away, and for a moment, a trace of panic appeared on the beautiful face of the third princess.

Although it only passed away in a flash, Zhou Heng thought he had captured it accurately.

But it was only for a moment, and then the three princesses and Empress Jiang were silent at the same time.

And Shen Fu then replied in a deep voice:

"Exactly, everyone here must also know that when I was young, I was fortunate to be favored by the late emperor, and I was able to practice riding and archery in Shanglin Garden. Later, I followed my father to participate in various royal events held there many times. The terrain is quite familiar."

"Just now Commander Qin thought that there might be secret passages up and down the Taiye Pond. This king thinks it makes sense. If so, although Shanglin Garden is far away from here, it is not ruled out that there is a secret passage connected there."

After saying this, the bearded General Zhu couldn't help but say:

"My lord is right! There are imperial guards patrolling the palace day and night, and there are not many loopholes. If you really want to talk about it, from the perspective of military strategists, Shanglinyuan Mountain is really the most suitable place for thieves to hide and escape!"

After saying this, he actually cupped his hands at Qin Zhihai and said directly:

"There are enough people in the palace. I'm sorry, brother Qin. I want to follow the prince to help in such a critical place!"

Qin Zhihai didn't answer, and looked at Queen Jiang, and Queen Jiang reacted quickly, put down the veil and said:

"Listen, my lord, Prince Jing's words are not unreasonable. In that case, please ask General Zhu to assist the prince to go to Shanglin Garden to catch the thief!"

Empress Jiang said so, then Qin Zhihai took out something from his arms and handed it to Shen Fu with both hands:

"Then I will thank you, my lord! The brothers in Shanglinyuan are waiting for my lord's orders with this decree!"

After saying this, for some reason, the third princess snorted coldly. Presumably, she couldn't hold it back for a while. Everyone was looking at Qin Zhihai and Shen Fu, and the pavilion was quiet. It seemed very abrupt.

Fortunately, the queen mother reacted quickly, she stood up quickly and solemnly saluted everyone, and then said:

"Thank you, my lords! Your majesty... the spirit in the sky has knowledge. Seeing that you are so dedicated to the country, you will definitely..."

It seemed that he couldn't continue talking, sobbing and covering his mouth with a veil.

Zhou Heng watched secretly, looking really sad.

Could it be that he has some affection for the emperor?Or are you worried that those people from Zhongnan Road will really be captured by Shen Fu, and that the wishful thinking of yourself and your daughter will come to naught?

Anyway, when she cried like this, those kneeling people had no choice but to continue kneeling and say in unison:

"Please condolences to the Empress Dowager!"

As soon as these words were said, Xu Shi's voice was too loud, and Concubine Liang who was beside Zhou Heng actually coaxed the son in her arms again:

"He'er, it's okay, it's okay, you go on sleeping!"

But the Fourth Prince seemed to have been awakened this time. Although his eyes were closed, his small body began to arch and kick, and his feet began to kick wildly, as if losing his temper.

Concubine Liang was still trying to coax her at first, but then she seemed to be unable to coax her, so she stood up holding her son who was still crying helplessly, and timidly confessed to the Queen Mother and Queen Jiang:

"The Empress Dowager, the Empress Dowager, the Fourth Prince has always had the habit of choosing seats. It's late at night now, can, can someone escort the concubine back to the palace?"
