Nine thousand years old [rebirth]

After Xue Shu returned to Xichang, he asked someone to find the red rope.

He has never played a network before, so naturally he doesn't understand.But he didn't want to ask others, so he found a few nets, disassembled them and studied them carefully, and tried to make them up by himself.After weaving several red ropes, I just succeeded in one.

He didn't weave too complicated patterns, two thin red ropes were interwoven to form a slightly thicker rope chain, and slip knots were specially made at the knots for easy removal and wearing.

In the center of the bright red string, there is a transparent jasper auspicious buckle of just the right size.

Xue Shu sat under the lamp, and rubbed the surface of the auspicious buckle with his slightly rough fingertips, but did not leave any traces.

Unlike His Highness's skin, just a little bit of force will leave slight red finger marks, dotted on the white and greasy skin like fine porcelain, flowing like lust.

After playing with it for a while, Xue Shu found a small brocade bag and put away the auspicious buttons.

He was too angry tonight, so instead of going to the bathroom, he drew cold well water from the well and poured it over his head.

The cold water temporarily suppressed the hot emotions, but it couldn't quench the burning fire in my heart.

When he turned off the lights and lay down on the bed, Xue Shu touched the beautiful pouch hidden on his chest, and then touched the jade ring around his neck, even the cold water vapor became hot.

Tossing and turning all night, I didn't fall asleep until the middle of the night.

It's just that there is still no peace in the dream.

Yin Chengyu lay face down on the imperial concubine's couch, the whole person was too quiet, the purple robe was hanging down against the curve of the body, and the room was full of spring scenery.

Xue Shu sat sideways behind him, the hem of the gold-embroidered and silver-embroidered clothes overlapped with his, and it was almost impossible to tell you from me.

The lights in the room danced, stretching the shadows of the two extremely long.

Silence flows in the shadows of the lights.

It seemed only a few breaths later, and it seemed that after a long time, Xue Shu finally moved, and pulled out a small white jade seal from the ice mirror beside him.

The small seal is only as thick as a thumb, and one end is tied with a red string, because it has just been taken out of the ice cream, and when it is heated, tiny water droplets condense on the surface.

Xue Shu raised his hand, took the red string, and hung the small seal behind Yin Chengyu's neck.

The end of the small seal was stained with red mud, and when it fell lightly, a red mark was left on the porcelain-white skin.The inkpad blurred when it met water, but it was vaguely recognizable that it was the word "Xue Shu" in Xiaozhuan script.

The cold jade suddenly touched the skin, causing the quiet man to tremble.

Yin Chengyu turned his head, his beautiful phoenix eyes were full of anger: "Xue Shu, don't go too far!"

Xue Shu was smiling, but the smile didn't reach his eyes, and there was a hint of gnashing of teeth: "Your Highness even remembers Xie Yunchuan's birthday, and even asked someone to give him a handwritten painting, but he just doesn't remember our family's birthday. , our family is very sad, so we have to ask for it ourselves."

While speaking, Bai Yu Xiaoyin rolled along the slightly concave back under the traction of the red rope, leaving behind a string of ambiguous red.

……

When Xue Shu woke up, he was drenched with sweat.

Now it's July, the weather is hot, the ice mirrors placed in the four corners of the house have melted, but the heat is still in full swing.

The steaming heat made the mouth dry.

Xue Shu sat on the couch for a long time before recovering from his dream.

Everything in the dream is too real.

Every reaction of His Highness affected his mind and desire.But at the same time, every word was like a sharp knife, piercing his heart without blood.

So much so that after waking up, that kind of anxiety and jealousy still churned in my heart and couldn't be calmed down.

Xue Shu eagerly took out the small brocade bag that was close to his body. After feeling the existence of the auspicious button in the bag, the churning emotions gradually calmed down.

He let out a breath slowly, fortunately it was just a dream.

He would not treat His Highness like this, and His Highness would not treat him like this.

His Highness accepted his auspicious buckle and promised him personally that he would prepare a birthday gift for him.

It's all different from the dream.

Xue Shu restrained his emotions, put away the small brocade bag, and took a cold shower before changing his clothes.Before going out, he put the small brocade bag in his bosom again, thinking that when it gets late, he can go to the Ciqing Palace and return the auspicious buttons to His Highness.

Thinking of His Highness wearing the item he gave him next to his body, Xue Shu felt his heart burn.

After leaving the West Factory, Xue Shu went to the Yuma Supervisor to inspect.On the way, I met Gao Yuan, the governor of the East Factory.

Gao Yuan was wearing an autumn-colored flying fish suit, with a whitebait bag hanging around his waist, and he was playing with two oily walnuts in his palm. He looked kind on his face, but his tone was full of guns and sticks: "Xichang has nothing to do recently, Where is Supervisor Xue going this morning?"

Ever since Emperor Longfeng re-appointed Xichang and slapped Dongchang and Jin Yiwei in the face, Gao Yuan unilaterally made a death feud with Xue Shu.

Before Emperor Longfeng used Xue Shu again and again in order to beat them, Gao Yuan was warned by Gao Xian several times before he reluctantly endured it.

Now that Emperor Longfeng was away, and Gao Xian returned to Beijing with the emperor's warrant, Gao Yuan couldn't bear it anymore.

It's just a yellow-haired boy who got shit luck, no matter how capable he is, can he turn the world upside down?

Gao Yuan went in and out of the Imperial Prison, and saw many young people who boasted of their abilities, who were arrogant at first, but later became worse than dogs. When he looked at Xue Shu again, his eyes were full of contempt.

He pretended to sigh: "If Supervisor Xue has nothing to do, he might as well come to Dongchang to help. Now that the plague is spreading in Beijing, His Majesty don't know how much money he has allocated to the treasury for disaster relief. But these common people don't Without gratitude, you actually spread rumors to slander Your Majesty. His heart is truly damning. Gao Zhangyin shared His Majesty's concerns, and specially ordered our family to arrest these rumor-mongering scholars and ordinary people for interrogation. Maybe there will be disorderly officials and thieves mixed in to stir up trouble and stir up trouble. .”

Xue Shu frowned when he heard the words, looked at Gao Yuan coldly, and did not back down a bit: "Nowadays, people are panicked when the plague is rampant, and Governor Gao will be punished for his words again, and be careful to arouse public anger. It will be self-defeating at that time, don't blame our family Didn't remind you."

Gao Yuan snorted: "Officer Xue, don't scare our family with a big hat, our family has eaten more salt than you have eaten rice grains. You are so excused, don't you even have the guts to go to jail? "

Xue Shu didn't accept his provocative methods, and after thinking for a moment, he said: "Since the High Governor has kindly invited you, our family will come with you."

Seeing that he had been provoked and agreed to go to prison, Gao Yuan curled his lips coldly and walked ahead.

Today's show, but he specially prepared it for Xue Shu, and the safekeeping made him lose all face, and he will have no face to hold his head in front of others in the future.

The two left the palace and went to the prison.

The prison is under the Beizhen Fusi, which was originally under the jurisdiction of Jinyiwei.However, Gong Hongfei, the commander of Jin Yiwei, has always been a fool, and he was always overwhelmed by Gao Xian in front of Emperor Longfeng.Therefore, Jin Yiwei was also overwhelmed in front of Dongchang.

Almost all the prison guards were from Dongchang.

Now the scholars captured by Gao Yuan are all imprisoned in the Imperial Prison.

Xue Shu followed Gao Yuan into the gate of the Imperial Prison, and heard the heavy door shut behind him. The guards in brown clothes pressed their knives and looked at him coldly, feeling extremely oppressive.

With a glance, Xue Shu knew that today's encounter was probably done deliberately by Gao Yuan.

But he was never afraid of provocation, following Gao Yuan's intention today, he just took the opportunity to investigate the situation because he thought His Highness must be concerned about this matter.

His expression remained unchanged, and he followed Gao Yuan deep into the prison.

The corridor leading to the prison is long and dark, and the screams and wailing of prisoners can be heard from time to time.The lights on the walls on both sides danced, making it even more eerie.

"A few scholars were caught in the next round of service today. They gathered in a teahouse to compose poems to satirize His Majesty. After our people checked it out, we found that one of them's grandfather used to do business in Wangjing, and there was an opera garden under his name. Coincidentally, the opera garden was in During Xiaozong's period, there was an evil incident in which an actor assassinated Emperor Xiaozong while singing... These scholars are probably related to the remnants of Xiaozong's period."

Gao Yuan slowly turned the walnut in his hand, and sighed: "The hateful thing is that these remnants have a bit of backbone. They were interrogated twice, but they refused to plead guilty no matter what. Our family thought that Dongchang's method would not work, so we came here Try the one from West Factory."

He spoke in a high-sounding manner, as if it was true, but Xue Shu frowned secretly.

The remnants of Xiaozong's time were nothing more than a cover.

Who in the world doesn't know that Xiaozong's cruelty and inhumanity forced frequent uprisings everywhere?The so-called remnants are nothing more than ordinary people being forced to die, so they have the idea of ​​changing the dynasty.

Later, Emperor Xiaozong died, and Emperor Longfeng succeeded to the throne. He adopted a strategy of appeasement, and the people had a way to survive, so the assassination gradually stopped.

It's just that Emperor Longfeng was timid and afraid of death. Although he didn't say it on the surface, he still has a lot of fear of the remnants of the Xiaozong period.

It was precisely because Gao Yuan and the others took advantage of Emperor Longfeng's mind that they wanted to take this opportunity to arrest a group of people and beat them up so that they could claim credit in front of Emperor Longfeng.

These scholars just hit the right spot.

Not only will he be beaten into a trick, but he may also be used as a raft to give him a blow.

Xue Shu's eyes were filled with chills, watching Gao Yuan ordered someone to drag up a shapeless scholar, and brought up with him, there were also several less injured scholars, who were all locked in a cage like livestock at this time.

These scholars are also hard-boned, and their backs have not been broken by the torture. Seeing Gao Yuan, they all cursed bitterly.

Gao Yuan's face darkened, and he ordered someone to gag.All of them were tied to the interrogation frame.

"Our family wants to see how long your bones can be hardened!"

If the words fall, they will be executed.

A fan servant brought a torture device and tied up the scholar who might be "a remnant of Xiaozong's evil".

Gao Yuan introduced to Xue Shu with a smile: "This is called playing the pipa. No matter how hard the bone is, it will soften even after being played on it."

While speaking, I heard the inhuman howl of the dying scholar.

The distorted face he was forced to raise had no eyes, and there were only two blood holes left, which were facing Xue Shu bloody.

The torturer asked him, "Can you plead guilty?"

The scholar was already speechless, bloody saliva flowed from his open mouth, but he still shook his head slightly.

Gao Yuan looked at Xue Shu's expression and saw that he was frowning, so he thought he was showing timidity.Smiling and pushing again, he tsk-tsk said: "I can resist, the people under our family are useless, how about Supervisor Xue to interrogate our family?"

Xue Shu looked sideways, gave him a deep look, and said with a half-smile: "Then... it's better to be obedient than to be respectful."

He stepped forward and drew the saber from his waist when he was beside the torturer.

Gao Yuan was about to ask what he meant when he raised the knife in his hand and chopped off the scholar's head with one blow.

The splashed blood sprayed Gao Yuan all over his body and face. He looked at Xue Shu in astonishment, and was furious: "Xue Shu! You are bold!"

Xue Shu threw the knife on the ground, took a cloth towel at the side and slowly wiped the blood on his hands: "Didn't Lord Gao ask our family to help with the interrogation?"

He curled his lips into a smile, and his eyes were full of anger: "This person in our family behaves differently from the high governor. Anyone who has other ideas, just kill them all. After killing them all, the masters can rest assured, and we can rest assured. Why bother Wasting effort here?"

Gao Yuan pointed at him with trembling fingers, unable to speak.

Today he just wanted to take the opportunity to show Xue Shu off, to kill his vigor.But he didn't want Xue Shu to be more rampant than he expected.

Although he didn't use torture, the eyes that looked at him were scarier than the torturers who had been in charge for many years.

Seeing that Gao Yuan's face was as white as paper, Xue Shu snorted, threw the blood-stained cloth towel at his feet, and said, "Our family will remember Gao Du Lord's hospitality today. We still have something to do today, so let's go first."

After saying that, he rubbed Gao Yuan's shoulder and walked out.

The guards of Dongchang who were on guard at the side held their knives and retreated to both sides when they saw this, but no one dared to stop them.

The author has something to say:

Gougou: I am obedient, and His Highness likes me.

Big Dog: Hehe :)
