Journey To the World of Film and Television

  Chapter 20 Which salary do you eat? (Sapo rolls around begging for tickets)

   "Stop!"

  Fan Xian still couldn't calm down in the end, and with his character, he was unwilling to keep silent at this time.

   In the case of beating Guo Baokun, he thought that the evidence would clear the suspicion, but he didn't expect that the prince would still want to torture Si Lili to force her to speak up.

  A flash of approval flashed in Zhou Ji's eyes, after getting along these days, he had completely approved of this Fan Xian in front of him.

  The crown prince couldn't help showing a sneer when he saw Fan Xian approaching, "If you admit it, she won't have to be punished."

  Fan Xian couldn't bear it, and was about to answer, there was another commotion outside the hall. Everyone looked, but a person walked in from outside the hall.

   "Will the prince try to torture the case?" The second prince walked into the government office while clapping his hands.

   "No need to kneel, there is no reason for the prince to kneel to me here." The second prince waved his hand to signal that everyone didn't need to salute. Instead, he came to the prince, knelt down on the ground respectfully and gave a long salute, "Meet Your Highness the prince."

  The prince has long been used to the second prince's hypocrisy, so he hurriedly helped him up, "Second brother, how many times have I told you that there is no need for you and my brother to perform such a big gift."

  The two wanted to hack each other to death, but on the surface they were brothers and sisters.

   "You are the crown prince, and courtesy cannot be discarded."

   "You are my second brother, you shouldn't be so different."

   I don’t know how many times I have said the familiar polite words, but in front of outsiders, I still have to say it correctly.

   "What are you doing here?" The prince smiled, his tone resembling a chat between brothers.

"I heard that the crown prince sits on trial in the Kyoto government office, so I'm here to appreciate the prince's Tianwei." The second prince also had a gentle smile on his face, but there was always a bit of yin and yang in his words. I have to listen to you, which really admires me."

  The prince was not angry either, and said with a smile, "Master Mei is handling the case, and I am just watching."

   "Then the case was settled just now, why did the punishment suddenly start again?"

"This, this... this." Mei Zhili was speechless at the end of the half day, and could only look at the prince, who was smiling but his eyes became colder, "This is a private execution by a subordinate, and The prince has nothing to do."

  The second prince smiled, picked up another bearded stool and sat on the other side of the desk, and said with a smile: "Then I will also watch from the sidelines."

  Mei Zhili only felt that his legs were unstoppably weak. After finally sitting on the chair, his whole body was almost spread out on the table.

  Looking left and right, the prince and the second prince also stared at him in a daze.

  The crown prince and the second prince are facing each other, and now it has become a stalemate, and the methods used to make peace in the past are useless at this time.

  Mei Zhili showed bitterness on his face, wishing he could have a heart attack now, at least it could be delayed for a while.

   "Master Mei."

  A sudden call from the audience made Mei Zhili recover, unaware that he was already sweating profusely and his mouth was dry.

   "Young Master Zhou, do you have anything else to say?"

Among the people present, there was the crown prince, the second prince, the son of King Jing, the son of the Minister of the Ministry of Households, the son of the Minister of Rites, and only Zhou Ji, who didn't know his origin, was easy to talk to. Mei Zhili coughed lightly, and asked Zhengyan road.

   "I heard that Mr. Mei has been an official for many years, and I have a few doubts that have nothing to do with the case, but I would like to ask Mr. Mei to clarify."

  Everyone looked at Zhou Ji, but they didn't know what Zhou Ji meant by speaking at this time.

   "It is often said that eating the emperor's salary is a matter of loyalty to the emperor. I don't know if Master Mei still remembers whose salary he ate, and who awarded the official position?"

   As soon as the words were spoken, the whole room was silent.

  It was as if a basin of cold water had been poured on Mei Zhili's head, and cold sweat poured out all over his body, as if he had taken a bath, his whole body was drenched.

Father, like son.

  Mei Zhili can be said to be a veteran of the court, and he has also seen the cruel methods of Emperor Qing of the court.

   Today, he is vacillating in front of the crown prince and the second prince. If it is reported to His Majesty, it may be bad luck and bring disaster to his wife and children.

The faces of the crown prince and the second prince also changed slightly. If it was normal, they might still think of this level, but at this time they are facing each other, and no one wants to give in. Instead, they put themselves on the fire and buckled up for interfering in government affairs. hat.

  Outside the lobby, a chubby **** with a friendly face walked up and down, saluted the prince and said, "Meet Your Highness."

   "Eunuch Hou?"

  The **** stood up and held his head high, and raised his voice: "Your Majesty ordered that the judicial trial is a matter for the Kyoto Prefecture. The royal children should go home by themselves and stop meddling in their own business!"

  Everyone bowed and stood up, saying in unison: "I would like to obey the holy edict."

  Eunuch Hou looked at Mei Zhili, and said inexplicably, "Master Mei, Your Majesty has sent you into the palace."

  Mei Zhili's heart skipped a beat, and he couldn't help showing grief. He took off his hair crown tremblingly, and bowed to Eunuch Hou, his whole back collapsed: "Please also lead the way."

  Eunuch Hou squeezed out a smirk, and said politely: "Master Mei, why should you do this? Your Majesty just sent you over to ask questions."

  Mei Zhili seemed to be more than ten years old, and followed behind Eunuch Hou like a dying old man.

  Whether it's life or death, whether it's Bai Ling's poisonous poison or the whole family will be wiped out, it depends on how pitiful this time is.

  Fan Xian came to his senses, trotted a few steps, approached Eunuch Hou, looked around, the more he looked, the more familiar he looked.

  Eunuch Hou didn't take it seriously, and said with a smile: "What else can Mr. Fan do?"

  Fan Xian opened his mouth, wanting to ask about the Qing Temple, but he also knew how to measure, and had a faint guess in his heart, and said with a wry smile: "Then what about our side?"

  Eunuch Hou couldn't help but said: "The people who tried this case have left, so naturally they all went back to their homes." After finishing speaking, he still didn't forget to hide a sentence: "The capital is not big, there is always a day to meet."

   Say goodbye and leave.

  The prince walked up to Fan Xian and was stopped.

   "His Royal Highness." Fan Xian folded his hands on his shoulders, raised his eyebrows and said, "Forgive Fan Xian, there is one thing I would like to ask Your Highness."

   "Talk." The prince did not look sideways, as if he didn't pay attention to Fan Xian, but the second prince looked curious and stopped.

   "Before Fan was assassinated in Danzhou, I wonder if the prince knew about it?"

  This question made the prince really look at Fan Xian with disdain, the prince snorted softly, and left straight away, but he didn't even bother to answer.

  How could he assassinate an illegitimate son who abandoned Danzhou?

  Zhou Ji took two steps forward, patted Fan Xian on the shoulder, gave a thumbs up and said, "It's tough to have a backstage."

   "What backstage, don't talk nonsense." Pa~ Fan Xian slapped Zhou Ji's hand away, stretched out his finger and said, "Also, you dare to take my sister to that kind of place! What the fuck?"

   "I was wrong, I was really wrong." Zhou Ji smiled wryly, "I almost regretted it myself."

   Originally, he just looked at her with pity, but ended up getting himself into big trouble.

   If today's incident got to Fan Jian's ears, Fan Jian would block the door and scold him.

   "Tsk~" Fan Xian couldn't help laughing when he saw Zhou Ji's expression as if he had eaten a yellow lotus.

  To be honest, he did have a bit of resentment in his heart, but he also believed that Zhou Ji knew how to measure, so he was not so angry after thinking about it.

  After all, instead of making Fan Ruoruo curious about sneaking into Zuixianju alone one day, it is better to ask Zhou Ji to take her to have a look, so as to eliminate curiosity.
