Crowned with Pearls

   Chapter 698 Ninety-seven Master

In Zhenfusi's signing room, Xu Shun sat upright and did not even move his brows from beginning to end. Only when the door creaked, did he slowly open his eyes and glance at Xiao Heng lightly. , and closed his eyes again.

Xiao Heng ignored his rudeness. After all, Zhou inherited Zhou's rituals, and there has always been a saying that the doctor cannot be punished, and there are so-called eight arguments. Xu Shun accounted for two of them, the so-called argumentation. It is common sense for him to be arrogant and arrogant. He bypassed Xu Shun and sat down behind the table in front of him, lightly threw the pile of testimony on the table, raised his eyebrows at will, and said, "Xu Cifu, we locked you up for a day and a night, you are not angry at all. ?"

In theory, people of Xu Shun's level have many privileges. Even now, he is imprisoned in the imperial prison. Not to mention other places, including the Zhenfu Division, there are many people who come over to covertly and secretly. Persuade Xiao Heng to be more tactful and restrained.

   It's just that Xiao Heng has been operating in Jinyiwei for many years, and his wrist is famous for his iron blood, which is why he can detain Xu Shun here for so long.

   In fact, even Xiao Heng is not qualified to torture Xu Shun, which is why Xu Shun is so old.

   His eyes fell on the document in Xiao Heng's hand, and his tone was light: "I have nothing to say, if Your Highness wants to ask something from me"

"Xu Chong is dead." Xiao Heng raised his eyebrows, and before he finished speaking, he threw out the news. Seeing that Xu Shun finally reacted, and the veins burst out on his forehead, he increased his tone: "Master Second Assistant, don't get me wrong. , Among the eight debates, Xu Chong also accounted for one of the expensive debates, and no one tortured him, it was after he heard Xuan Yuan's confession, and without waiting for the trial, he found a way to break the bowl and cut his wrists to commit suicide."

  Xu Shun, who had been standing still, finally had a reaction. Hearing that Xu Chong was dead, he stood up all of a sudden: "It's impossible!"

Knowing the son, Mo Ruofu, how could he not know what kind of temper his son has? Xu Chong also has a fierce face, but in the end, he is more afraid of death and pain than anyone else. Chicken, he has to stay three feet away, not to mention committing suicide?

  How could he endure this pain?

   Xiao Heng laughed lightly.

   It turns out that Xu Cifu, who has the power to kill countless people, will also have such a side. It turns out that Xu Shun will lose his normality if he loses his family.

  Xu Shun was tensed up by the laughter, and he gradually reacted, clenching his fists and looking at Xiao Heng in front of him, his eyes were full of anger.

   Xiao Heng also did not shy away from looking at him.

After all, he is the second assistant who has power and power, Xu Shun's eyes are like a poisonous snake dormant in the dark, making people numb and the pressure increases sharply, but Xiao Heng can stare at him for a long time without changing his face, even frowning. Not even a wrinkle.

"It's really misunderstood." Xu Shun spoke in a hoarse voice. In the end, he was the person who had been through the incident. He used to move a pen and open his mouth, and countless lives and even the fate of the city were rewritten, such as life and death. , at his age, he has seen too much.

So even if he heard that the eldest son had died, his pain and shock were only temporary, but he soon regained his calm, and he looked at Xiao Heng coldly: "I originally thought that His Royal Highness, the eldest grandson, had inherited the kindness of the first prince, but he didn't. Thinking of the origin of a cruel official, although His Highness has recognized his ancestors and returned to his ancestry and was able to take the right place, the cruel and tyrannical nature of this official cannot be changed."

   Xiao Heng was not surprised that Xu Shun responded so quickly.

Xu Shun's mind is much more sober and smarter than Xu Chong and Qi Yunxi. Xu Chong just couldn't figure it out. He really thought he would use punishment. In fact, he was also embarrassed by his own identity. Did he really come to the trial out of trust?

   Not really, right?

When an accident happened between Qi Yunxi and the Xu family, according to the previous entanglement between the two parties, Emperor Yuanfeng threw the case to him. Maybe one was really trying to use his mind, but there was also a purpose to test him. Emperor Yuanfeng I want to know how much work he and the Song family have done in the Xu family and Qi Yunxi.

  If he uses too much force, then the good situation will be completely destroyed.

   This point, Xu Chong can't see through, neither can Qi Yunxi.

But Xu Shun, the old fox in the officialdom, could see clearly, that is, Xu Chong and Qi Yunxi were suddenly arrested. After entering the prison, Xiao Heng was strictly guarded and did not allow them to come into contact with anyone he could not trust. Otherwise, Xu Chong would Qi Yunxi and Qi Yunxi were still the same stone that couldn't open their mouths.

   But now, Xu Shun, who has seen through everything, even pulled the corner of his mouth towards Xiao Heng with a little provocation: "His Royal Highness, the eldest grandson, is still too young."

Xu Shun's status is higher than that of Xu Chong, and what is even worse is that he is a close friend of Emperor Yuanfeng, and he is the one who really accompanied Emperor Yuanfeng to clean up the remnants of the previous dynasty, and has reached the point where he is now. The ruler and the minister are the ruler and the minister, and they are also friends. To treat him, there can be no mistakes in the slightest, and the sense of proportion must be very good.

   Even if you move his finger, when he comes to Emperor Yuanfeng in the future, he can immediately say that he was tortured to extract a confession.

   His disciples are all over the world, and he is very prestige, and he naturally has the capital to look down on a eldest grandson who is now an unjustifiable emperor.

Xiao Heng tapped his finger on the table: "Lord Zifu seems to know me very well, but if I remember correctly, although I was ignorant when I was young and frivolous, I did some unreasonable things, but I didn't provoke me. In the place where I have passed Cifu, why does Cifu dislike me so much? Cifu is a character of Jane in the heart of the emperor, and let his son marry the remnants of the demon queen Li, can it be prevaricate with three words without knowing it?"

Xu Shun sneered: "His Royal Highness said what the old minister said, why can't I be ignorant? When the dog married Qi, after Qi Yunxi was married to General Zhaoyong, even the sage and the empress were raised as daughters. Big man, who can imagine what relationship she has with the remnants of the previous dynasty?"

   "Really?" Xiao Heng folded his arms like chatting: "Then how do you explain that Xu Chong wanted to cover up for her, even at the expense of perjury, and sent someone to threaten a push officer?"

Xu Shun closed his eyes and seemed to be distressed: "This is also the reason why my discipline is not strict, who can be ruthless if people are not plants and trees? In the end, the Qi family and the Li family had children for him, and they have never revealed their life experience in these years. After getting along for so many years, she is filial and sensible. Since the dog has been with her husband and wife for many years, he naturally believes in her, and later, he knows the truth and cares about the relationship between husband and wife, and he can no longer kill his relatives righteously."
