Cannot attack objects

Chapter 218

After all, the matter did not end as peacefully as Zhong Shao wished. There were several changes in Shengzhou City that night. Except for the victims who stayed safely by the porridge shed and guarded the food, most of the people in the city were alarmed. .

From the moment she asked Hong Ping to take action, Zhong Shao had the idea of ​​cutting through the mess with a sharp knife. In order not to startle the snake, she didn't even mobilize troops to seal Qingfeng Lane in the west of the city.However, something went wrong, and not long after Zhao Sihu was captured by Hong Ping, the people behind the scenes seemed to have noticed that they took advantage of Zhong Shao's unblocked time and escaped with others!

Fortunately, the place in Shengzhou is too chaotic now, and the city gate must be closed at night.Not only was the city gate closed, but a curfew was also imposed in the city after the victims entered the city. Now the victims are all gathered in the porridge shed to guard their life-saving food, and no one is running around in the city anymore.In the past two days, the city has been really quiet. Apart from the patrolling sergeants at night, only watchmen are walking around.

It's not without consideration that Zhong Shao chose to act at night—she either didn't startle the snake, and learned about the person behind the scenes through interrogation of Zhao Sihu, and then caught him in one go.Either directly alert those people, even without interrogation, as long as they run away after being alerted, it is much easier than usual to catch them in this curfew city.

It's a pity that Zhao Sihu is just a junior official from the seventh rank, and obviously he can't get into the eyes of the people behind the scenes. I don't know anything about the person behind the scenes.

After Zhong Shao's interrogation, he immediately led people to block Qingfeng Lane, but it was a pity that he was still a step too late, and the people ran away.In the end, he had no choice but to conduct a city-wide raid, which alarmed half of the tense people in the city.

The search and arrest this night was easy and not easy, because the streets were clean and there were no idlers waiting to disturb the search.It's not easy because Shengzhou is a big city after all, and if a few people want to hide, it's actually not too difficult.But all in all, today's Shengzhou is in the hands of Zhong Shao, even if it is dawn, she will not allow the city gates to be opened or the curfew to be lifted, she will still be able to find people.

The search went on in the middle of the night, until it was daylight, the people hiding in the dark finally seemed to be unable to rest...

When the three thousand Xuanjia troops surrounded the twenty or so suspicious people, Zhong Shao stepped out, stared at the tightly guarded man for a long time, and finally asked, "Who are you?"

The one Zhong Shao stared at was a young man, aged 24 or [-], who looked older than Zhong Shao.After being surrounded by the Xuanjia army, his face was obviously panicked, but when Zhong Shao stepped forward to ask questions, he tried his best to calm down, and even straightened his back even more.He glanced at Zhong Shao, and his expression was even a little arrogant: "You have no right to ask me."

Zhong Shao snorted lightly when he heard the words, then smiled disdainfully: "Isn't it just that after being a rebellious minister and thief, he actually thinks of himself very high."

Anger flashed across the young man's face when he heard this. He glared at Zhong Shao fiercely, and retorted: "Who is a traitor, you are a traitor! Ying Yang steals the country, and you are willing to be lackeys!"

Zhong Shao didn't take it seriously when he heard this, and said lightly: "There is an old saying, 'Those who steal the hook will be punished, and those who steal the country will be the princes'. This is a matter of success and defeat, so why bother to talk about it." After she finished speaking, she looked up again. He glanced at the young man on the opposite side lightly, and said contemptuously: "What's more, a loser, how can he have the right to question again, are you right, Mr. Xiao?"

One sentence, Mr. Xiao, already pointed out something, the face of the young man opposite turned pale, but he also understood that since he was besieged, his identity might not be guaranteed.He looked at Zhong Shao with resentment in his eyes, then at the heavily surrounded Xuanjia Army, and sneered: "Since I was caught by you today, I think I will have no way to survive. But I am not in a hurry, I will wait on Huangquan Road Look at you shameless people, how you die without a place to die!"

After saying this, he actually pulled out a dagger from his pocket, and wiped his neck neatly.

Zhong Shao looked at the spilled blood and was silent, obviously a little surprised that the matter had come to an end like this.She felt that there might be a follow-up to the matter, but so what, since this person is dead, all his plans are doomed to be in vain.

The tension in my heart that has been rising since I came to Shengzhou felt that this moment finally let go, Zhong Shao didn't even look at the vicious man again, he waved his hands at the Xuanjia army beside him, The rest of them were also sent to accompany their masters.

Afterwards, when Xu Wenjin asked about it, Zhong Shao explained: "Your Majesty's reply has arrived, and this man must be a concubine of the King of Linzi. He was traveling abroad when the King of Linzi started the incident, and he was punished by the family of the Prince of Linzi, so he didn't have time to go back. The people around him were probably the first followers sent by the King of Linzi to protect him, and it is actually his ability to make trouble like this.”

At this time, Zhong Shao didn't know that the reason for this concubine of King Linzi to make such a fuss was not just because of a few followers.After King Linzi's defeat, he was punished by his family. Some of his confidantes escaped and defected to this son. At the same time, they also brought the letter that Emperor Yongning sent to King Linzi!This person was going to rely on this letter to make a final fight against the snow disaster, but unfortunately he failed in the end.

And that autograph letter was the backhand of this person, and there was another disturbance, but that was a funeral.At that time, Emperor Yongning had already secured the throne, and she had her own means, but she didn't need Zhong Shao to bother her.

After solving the black hand behind the scene who manipulated the chaos in Shengzhou, the disaster in Shengzhou was restored to a simple snow disaster. The imperial court has its own procedures for disaster relief. In fact, there is no need for Zhong Shao to worry about it. Zhou, who is dedicated to atonement The governor can take care of things very well.

Zhong Shao relaxed, and began to miss his family and his wife, as well as the child in his wife's womb.

************************************************** **********

Seeing that everything about the disaster relief in Shengzhou was on the right track, and King Fu's injuries had improved a lot after nearly a month of recuperation, Zhong Shao finally couldn't bear it anymore and went to find the hapless prince.

After the two exchanged a few words of pleasantries, Zhong Shao asked, "Is Your Highness in good health now?"

Fu Wang had already taken off the tightly wrapped bandages, and besides his complexion was much paler than before, he seemed to be gradually recovering his health.He was very polite to Zhong Shao, upon hearing this he smiled and said, "It's almost fine, thank you son-in-law for your concern."

Zhong Shao's thoughts moved when she heard the words, she smiled and said: "In this case, the officer can rest assured." She said, but changed the topic, and said: "Your Majesty heard that His Highness was injured before, so he was very worried. I sent a subordinate official to visit and help His Highness manage the affairs. Now that His Highness has recovered, it is natural for the subordinate officials not to intervene in the disaster relief..."

When King Fu heard this, he couldn't help but be taken aback, surprised that Zhong Shao's words actually meant decentralization?And letting go at this time is more than just delegating power, the matter of Shengzhou is over, and the disaster relief work is almost coming to an end.

But just as King Fu was about to speak, he was interrupted by Zhong Shao raising his hand: "Your Majesty sent His Highness to rescue the disaster. Apart from trusting him, His Highness must also be aware of the intention. I know His Highness has not recovered yet, but The disaster situation in the northern region has been dealt with almost, and His Highness has already done nine out of ten things, and the lower officials have no shame in claiming the credit for this achievement."

This is actually true, King Fu also knew that Emperor Yongning sent him to rescue the disaster this time, in fact, he was going to find an excuse to reward him for his merits.He ran around for a month, handled things in an orderly manner, but finally fell down in this city of Shengzhou... Although the matter of Shengzhou was all due to Zhong Shao, if he gave up all the credit for the disaster relief, he would be more than just a failure willing!

Therefore, after hearing Zhong Shao's words, Fu Wang's eyes softened, and he was a little moved in his heart. He said, "My son-in-law has a heart, but the matter of winning the state is entirely up to my son-in-law. Naturally, half of the credit is due to you. This king is not that kind." For narrow-minded people, His Majesty has his own plans in mind, so you don't need to mention the matter of delegating power, this king doesn't care about it."

Zhong Shao heard His Highness Fu Wang's magnanimous words, and she almost wanted to cry without tears. She stared at Fu Wang for a while, but she could only see sincerity in the other party's eyes——Fu Wang may not really be so magnanimous, but Zhong Shao's identity Obviously, he naturally had to sell Xiao Mo to save face.This is also the principle of his conduct in the world. He can live a long life by not being outstanding, not taking credit, and not offending others.

However, facing such King Fu, Zhong Shao felt helpless, she finally sighed, and told the truth: "Uncle Fu Wang, let me tell you the truth, Ah Mo is pregnant now, and I will leave Beijing for a month. I'm really worried about her and the child."

Fu Wang was stunned again when he heard the words, and then stared at Zhong Shao for a long time. After confirming that she was telling the truth, he couldn't help laughing: "Okay, young people are new fathers, I can understand. You Why do you have to go around in such a big circle, I have already said that, how can I not let you go?!"

Zhong Shao was a little embarrassed when he heard the words, but Fu Wang only made a few jokes, and then easily agreed to the matter.

When she left here from King Fu, Zhong Shao was in a happy mood—she had been away from Beijing for more than a month, and she had spent a lot of energy on the matter of Shengzhou. Have to stay for half a month!

Zhong Shao doesn't have any ambitions, and he doesn't seek to be an excellent minister. With half a month of hard work and other credits, he might as well go back to accompany his wife!And at this time, returning the rights to King Fu not only expresses her own goodwill, but also expresses Emperor Yongning's trust in him, and erases all the speculations and precautions she once had. Why would she want to do such a thing that is beneficial but harmless? Why not? !

In this way, after Zhong Shao returned from Fu Wang's place, she began to pack her luggage happily, and she planned to leave tomorrow!

It's just that Xiao Wenxuan broke in before the things were packed, and the princess stared at her when she saw her: "Zhong Shao, my father's injury is not healed yet, so you trick him into taking over for you. If you don’t let go of your troubles, won’t your conscience hurt?!”

Zhong Shao was dumbfounded when he heard the words, and wanted to ask the other party: Do you know that you love your father now?When you sold your father for favorability, why didn't you see your conscience hurt? !

The author has something to say:

Xiao Wenxuan (straight face): My father can only cheat me, understand? !
