fake prince

Chapter 433
At daybreak, a body was salvaged, carried on wooden planks, and placed on the deck of the imperial envoy's ship.

Luo Pei always didn't care about bad luck, now he frowned and looked at the eunuch who was still threatening him during the day yesterday, seeing that the eunuch was completely dead, he sighed.

"What's the trouble? It was just a small punishment. I handed it over to the palace or the palace. I didn't want to escape privately, but I fell into the water and died. I was so tired that the imperial envoy also took some responsibility."

After saying this, he ordered again: "Verify his integrity, and if he is correct, after a while the official ship docks, he will be ordered to be sent back to the capital and handed over to the Ministry of Punishment."

"Although the deceased is the most important, but he murdered the imperial court observer first, and then fled privately. If he is innocent, why should he flee privately?"

"Since you are guilty, follow the procedure."

When Liu Zhan heard the news, the matter had been finalized by Luo Pei, and the eunuch fled fearing the crime, which was seen by everyone. It can be said that this escape has actually confirmed the crime.

Even if King Qi wanted to protect him, he had to avoid suspicion for a while, but Liu Zhan thought, if the job was made into such a mess, King Qi himself might wish to beat the eunuch to ashes.

Of course, Luo Pei has to be credited, but Luo Pei is the king of Shu, so it's not too troublesome.

Because of his extraordinary hearing, Liu Zhan even heard some people discussing this matter in a low voice.

"I heard that I ran out to row a boat in the middle of the night, but it capsized, and I drowned without knowing the water."

"I'm really looking for death!"

"Who said no."

Don't care what these people think in their hearts, and whether they see something strange about this matter, but everyone is saying the same thing on the surface.

Among them, Zhang Sui's face was even paler, and he responded again and again, his voice was louder than others, but there was only a slight tremor.

"This officialdom is really a dye vat, even a famous water control official like Luo Pei can't avoid this kind of method."

"It's just a pity. Once Luo Ji dies, the matter of Dragon Girl may be delayed again."

Liu Zhan looked at them, then at Luo Pei, sighed, and went back to his cabin, closing the door, as if he didn't want to see anyone.

Just as he entered, he heard someone knocking on the door. He didn't answer, so he said outside: "The real man, it's me."

It was Dao Tong who he ordered to check the information before.

Daotong had his own method of quickly contacting people to obtain information, and by coming here so quickly, Liu Zhan felt that there was something else to divert his attention.

Because the inside was dark and the outside was bright, and Liu Zhan was relatively frugal in private at ordinary times, and he was too lazy to light candles. With this document, he went out, stood at the stern, and looked through it in the sun.

Looking closely, I couldn't help but ponder more and more.

"Based on my superficial physiognomy skills, I also think that Su Ziji is a nobleman. He was born in the middle school at the age of 15, and he was selected as a scholar. "

"Actually, he still encountered a lot of things. If you look carefully, almost all of them were killed and auspicious along the way. Such luck, such experience, is amazing."

"Although eunuchs have ways of killing them, they not only sent people to assassinate the officials, but also refused to give up when they were exposed, threatened the imperial envoys, and were naturally killed in secret - this is very logical and natural, and it can be placed in the background of Su Ziji Come on, something's wrong."

"Is this being restrained to death?"

"However, even if a child from a poor family has the appearance of a nobleman, how can he defeat the great eunuch of the Qi Palace at a very young age?"

"You know, the princes and grandsons come from prominent backgrounds, some of them have no background, and there are quite a few who are bullied by eunuchs and maids in the palace!"

"Is Su Ziji's life harder than that of the prince and grandson?"

"But if you really have a backstage, you won't be almost entrapped by a low-level gang in a small county."

"The changes here seem to be a bit strange, or I should go to Shun'an Mansion to get in touch with Su Ziji more and see what's going on with Su Ziji."

With such thoughts together, it is difficult to suppress them.

Although Liu Zhan was following the official ship, he was not actually assigned any duties, and he was very free. As long as he decided to go to Shun'an Mansion, he only had to tell Luo Pei to get off the ship when it docked.

It's just that this decision made him hesitate a bit. Looking at the Taotao River, he was silent for a while before making up his mind.

"Dragon Girl's matter will not go smoothly in one moment, so let's go to Shun'an Mansion."

May
The fireball-like sun was hanging in the sky, and the sun was shining straight down. Even if I hid in the bullock cart, I didn't feel cool. I felt more stuffy and hot than yesterday.

Ordinarily, in such a month, the boundary of Shun'an Prefecture should not be so hot.

The abnormal temperature made Su Ziji walk away, the more he had a guess in his heart.

"Stop by the side of the road ahead." Su Ziji said to the armored soldier driving in front of him as he opened the curtain of the car and watched.

"Yes, my lord!" The soldier replied respectfully.

Getting along on the road made the soldier who had only followed the orders of the superior to Su Ziji begin to have a real understanding of this young champion man.

This is a boss who is generous and easy to get along with in private, but strict in business affairs.

In the eyes of these soldiers, such an immediate boss can only be met by luck.

After Chengshou years, martial arts were suppressed and literature was suppressed. Scholars passed the imperial examinations and became officials. Not many people could look up to warriors.

Su Ziji has this ability, although he is easy-going and not demanding, but when he gets close, he has a demeanor that cannot be offended, and the more such a person is, the more likely he is to have a bright future and be promoted step by step.

Although the eight soldiers who stayed by Su Ziji's side did not understand this, they all gradually regarded Su Ziji as a reliance on their future.

Therefore, when Su Ziji got out of the car, several soldiers followed immediately.

Su Ziji only ordered one person: "Come and follow me, and the rest will watch the car and protect Mr. Cen."

They changed into casual clothes on the way, and the soldier was tall and burly, following behind Su Ziji, the two of them didn't look out of harmony, like a son protected by a servant.

With Su Ziji's handsome appearance, even if he doesn't dress high-profile, it won't make people think that they are two people of equal status.

Down the official road, there is a piece of farmland, but it is around the earthen huts. There are vegetable gardens in front of the door and behind the door. A farmer just turned around from the back, probably wanting to rest for a while. When he looked up, he saw them and stayed for a while. , and then stepped forward with some trepidation.

Su Ziji took a look at the soldier, and the soldier understood, and explained to the farmer kindly: "Don't be afraid, old man, this is my son. Because he likes miscellaneous books on agriculture, he went out to study. When he came here, he wanted to visit the fields casually. If you bother Haihan is also welcome."

As he spoke, he gave the other party a handful of copper coins.

Although it was a small amount of money for this soldier, the farmer was so happy that he bent down and thanked him repeatedly.

Su Ziji walked in front, let the soldiers handle the matter, and quickly walked around from this farmhouse to the back.

The farmland that was supposed to be continuous in May is not growing well at the moment. Not only that, the soil in the field is also obviously dry.
