Chapter 317 Interrogation
Xiao Shen agreed and sent the two of them out.After the people left, Xiao Shen packed up and left the house. Now, he wants to enter the palace.

In the palace, the emperor heard someone report that Xiao Shen came, with a smile on his lips, he is shrewd, and this time has come.

The emperor has already got the news that two people broke into the palace, the prince didn't do anything to them, but talked with them in secret.

He was thinking about what was going on when Xiao Shen came over.

It was so coincidental that the emperor had no choice but to suspect that he knew he was watching him.

Xiao Shen also really knew that the two of them only tacitly agreed that everything was fine on the surface, but in reality, they each had their own fears.

"Uncle Emperor." Xiao Shen saluted and stood still.

The emperor seemed to know nothing, and looked up with a smile, "Why is Shen'er here now, but what's the matter?"

"Uncle Huang, two assassins entered my mansion today, and upon careful inspection, I discovered that they were the sons of General Liu.

"Oh~ what is he looking for you for?" Needless to say, it must be because of General Liu.

"Liu Chengyun hopes that the son-in-law can intercede in front of the emperor's uncle to save General Liu's life, and promise that General Liu has never done anything wrong to the emperor."

The emperor smiled, "So, are you here to intercede?"

"No, Uncle Huang, I'm here to say that no matter what General Liu does or not, I'm afraid he won't be able to stay."

This made the emperor slightly surprised, he didn't expect Xiao Shen to say that, even if he didn't intercede, he would definitely not ask for death.

"You also think General Liu should be killed?"

Xiao Shen shook his head, "No, but I feel that someone seems to want to eradicate the generals around the emperor's uncle. Could it be the enemy's conspiracy? General Liu has fought for the country for many years. If the emperor kills him, I'm afraid Lips dead and teeth cold."

"Then what do you think?"

"No, how about letting it go?"

The emperor breathed a sigh of relief when he heard the words, and smiled more sincerely, "Shen'er, haven't you come to beg for mercy?"

Xiao Shen smiled and said nothing.

However, the emperor felt a bit of contempt in his heart, maybe he was thinking too much, even if he really had the heart, so what, the kindness of a woman, how can he get the throne.

"Although Shen'er pleads for mercy, the uncle will naturally not lose face, but you also know that this is a big deal. After all, you don't know what is going on with Liu Xianzong, so today you will go to the prison for interrogation with the people from the Ministry of Criminal Justice."

This was a test, but Xiao Shen still agreed, "Okay, thank you, Uncle Huang."

Xiao Shen left, the emperor frowned, this nephew seemed to see the bottom line at a glance, but he always had an illusion that he was too much like the former emperor, but the emperor shook his head, he was really worried Too much.

Xiao Shen went out, but his expression changed, everyone said that accompanying a king is like accompanying a tiger, how could he really act like a person who doesn't know anything.

Since he was a child, he grew up in the palace, and everyone around him taught him that the emperor's uncle treated him well, taught him to eat, drink and have fun, but he never learned literary and martial arts like other princes. Others work so hard.

All along, he really felt that the emperor's uncle treated him well.

It's just that as he grows older, he understands many things, and he also knows what a gentle knife is, and a knife is deadly.

The emperor has always been jealous of him, but he can't do anything to avoid causing shocks in the court. After all, he is the biological son of the former emperor. According to the rules, he is the heir to the throne.

Xiao Shen went to the Ministry of Punishments. With the emperor's order, he naturally did not dare to stop him. Liu Xianzong was taken out of prison.

Liu Xianzong's body was a little dirty, but his demeanor couldn't be concealed. Even if he was in prison, he seemed to be aloof, not at all downcast.

Xiao Shen sat down with the adults of the Criminal Department to interrogate Liu Xianzong.

He didn't make a sound, he was just a spectator the whole time, watching several adults, forcing Liu Xianzong to admit it, but Liu Xianzong clenched his mouth and refused to recruit, someone proposed to punish him.

"Liu Xianzong, we are all colleagues, and we don't want to embarrass you. If you recruited honestly, you will not suffer from flesh and blood."

But Liu Xianzong sneered, "Okay, you don't need to talk nonsense, I don't know what's going on with you, if you want to go up, go up, hurry up, I'm not afraid, if I yell that it hurts, it's not Liu Xianzong."

Seeing that he was so stubborn, it made several adults angry. The emperor ordered him to interrogate him, but they couldn't pry his mouth open. When the emperor asked him, he might blame them for being unfavorable in doing things.

"Come on!" The adult shouted.

At this time, Xiao Shen waved his hand, "Wait, my lords, can I have a few words with him alone."

Hearing that Xiao Shen wanted to speak alone, everyone hesitated slightly.

"But."

"Don't worry, it will be over soon, just ask him something, if adults are worried, you don't have to avoid it."

That being the case, an adult tugged at the sleeve of the person who just spoke, "Forget it, let the prince ask!"

Several adults walked out and gave up the space to Xiao Shen and the others.

Liu Xianzong looked at Xiao Shen and snorted, "My lord, don't waste your words in vain. I won't say anything. I, Liu Xianzong, a man, have never done it or never done it. It doesn't work for me."

Seeing his tough look, Xiao Shen nodded, "I respect General Liu as a man, and I also believe that General Liu didn't do anything, so I'll come here today." He lowered his voice, "Today I Come here, Mr. Liu has something for me to show General Liu, ask whose it is, it will be useful to reverse the case."

As he said that, he took out a half-a-piece jade accessory. When Liu Xianzong saw the jade accessory, his eyes shrank, "Where did this come from?"

"I don't know about that, General Liu, do you really know this thing?"

Liu Xianzong nodded and sighed, "That's right, I know this thing, but it's a little unexpected that this thing will suddenly appear. After all, it has been more than ten years, how could it suddenly appear!"

"The owner of this thing is surnamed Gu, Master Gu's younger sister, Gu Lingyue. She disappeared more than ten years ago, and it is precisely because of this that the Liu family and the Gu family have feuded."

So that was the case, Xiao Shen put away his things, didn't say anything, and called all the adults.

Although the crowd withdrew, they did not go far away, they kept looking at the two of them, but Xiao Shen spoke in a low voice, they did not hear clearly, what Xiao Shen showed him was blocked, and they did not see it arrive.

All I know is that Xiao Shen asked who the owner of something was, and didn't say anything about the case.

This incident naturally reached the emperor's ears, and the emperor did not have any doubts about it. It seemed that Xiao Shen had nothing to do with Liu Xianzong, so he felt relieved.
