Chapter 514 Small flaws, bear with it

Zhang Qing got out of Shen Liuzhen's carriage and walked all the way to the depths of the Supervisory Division's dungeon without stopping.

There, the short Eunuch He was standing outside the cell, watching the doctor inside who was treating Yishan.

Yishan sat cross-legged and closed his eyes to rest his mind. The prison clothes on his body were clean, but he still couldn't hide his misery.

With dry and yellow hair, under the state of semi-hunger strike, the sunken eye sockets and sallow complexion, not to mention the obvious traces of torture on his neck and wrists.

Zhang Qing looked away, walked behind Eunuch He, and said in a low voice:
"Eunuch, Shen Liuzhen's carriage was parked outside just now, I don't know if it's a coincidence."

Hearing this, Eunuch He turned his head and glanced at him, then looked into the cell and said:

"He came to ask when Yishan was executed?"

"Yes." Zhang Qing thought for a while, and then said, "If he thinks so much, he is good at death, and I'm afraid this assassination has nothing to do with him.

Father-in-law, it is not impossible for him to use the convenience of his double-faced work to use Wei Guo people to kill him.And today's timing is so coincidental, we just found out that someone sneaked in, and he came.I suspect that he is here to confirm that Yishan is not dead. "

Eunuch He sighed and persuaded him in a low voice:

"Even if it was really his instigation, that's understandable... After all, who wouldn't want their own life to be safer?
His identity is of great use, and Song Guo needs him.Let's turn a blind eye to this small flaw and let it pass. "

When Zhang Qing heard this, he also sighed and said nothing.

At this time, the doctor finished his consultation, packed up the medicine box and came out.Eunuch He raised his eyes and asked expectantly:
"How? Have you been poisoned?"

"It's just a deficiency of qi and blood, stagnation in the chest, but there is no sign of poisoning."

Eunuch He nodded in satisfaction, told the jailer to send the doctor out, and looked at Yishan again before turning around and leaving.

This cell is very deep, only Yishan is locked up in the long corridor, there is no one else, especially quiet.

Zhang Qing followed Eunuch He, and the two of them stepped on the wet stone slabs, with some echoes in their footsteps.

He complained as he walked:

"Eunuch...I have had a difficult time in the Tingwei Office recently, you know that Lord Tingwei and Ma Guogong are on good terms.

Because of my last action, I exposed my identity and offended Ma Guogong... Mr. Tingwei is urging me to sort out the files every day, asking me to copy all the old cases from before.

I've been lighting a lamp and cooking oil every day, and my eyes are almost blind..."

As he spoke, he raised his hand and rubbed his eyes extremely aggrieved.

Eunuch He glanced at him apologetically, and sighed:

"Hey... It's not easy to do this secret errand, but you can't let go of your job in the court department. It's a good place to collect information... just bear with it, ah."

Zhang Qing curled his lips in humiliation and said:

"Hey... I just don't understand. We caught Yishan in Ma Guogong's house, how could they cheat me so confidently. I think the bad thing is that we didn't let him know how bad it is..."

Eunuch He paused, as if thinking about something, then said as he walked:

"It's not that I let him go soft-hearted... It's because when the late emperor went, the arrangement of these positions had a deep meaning. It was like a mortise and tenon on a stool, and it had to be firmly stuck. Steady. Ma Guogong, me, and Shen Guozhu, whoever is missing... this stool is finished."

Zhang Qing thought for a while and said:
"Then we will fight back and do nothing. They will all regard us as persimmons that are easy to pinch, and they will not put you and us in their eyes at all. Then... can this be considered as a clue?"

Eunuch He thought for a while, sighed and said:
"It makes sense... we have to let them know how powerful our eyes are, and that we are not just a display...

How about this, besides Ma Guogong, who has the highest official position among the Xiao Xiami who has been found to have evidence of treason? "

Zhang Qing thought for a while and said:
"The commander of the imperial army, Shi Ji, has been proved by someone. On that day, Shi Ji sent his own steward out of the city, and secretly sent a message to the commander of the Youshan camp, telling him to play by ear and seize the opportunity..."

As he spoke, he seemed a little unwilling, and added another sentence:

"We have evidence from Ma Guogong, and we still have the handwriting written by his son. Although they have no intention of treason, they obviously want to get rid of Shen Guozhu's cronies, the guard camp led by Chen Dutong, so that they can control the government. ..."

"Oh..." Eunuch He interrupted him without waiting for him to finish, and said impatiently, "Why have you abducted back again? The son of the Ma family is the darling of Duke Ma, you can't bump.

You remember what I said, the overall situation must be the top priority, the position of their Ma family is very important.If there is any small flaw, let's just turn a blind eye and let it pass. "

Zhang Qing was completely discouraged and had nothing to say, and silently followed behind Eunuch He without saying a word.

The two stepped on the steps and came out of the dungeon. When they saw the sun for the first time, they couldn't help but wink their eyes.

Eunuch He folded his hands, stood at the door of the dungeon for a while, and said:

"Let's take Shi Ji as the knife. Shi Ji is also considered to be Ma Guogong's man. Kill him and knock the mountain to shake the tiger."

He squinted his eyes, but couldn't see the vicious look in his eyes, he just seemed to be casually friendly, and turned his head to Zhang Qing and said:
"You arrange it properly. Kill Shi Ji and plant it on Shen Liuzhen's head. Make a big noise and force him to go back to Wei."

Zhang Qing froze for a moment, then nodded immediately, as if eager to send Shen Liuzhen away quickly.

He always felt that Shen Liuzhen was dangerous and troublesome, but unfortunately there was no evidence.

"Oh, that's right," Eunuch He said again, "When he was forced to leave, by the way, he gave him the contact information of the elaborate network we arranged in Wei, so that we could pass on news in the future. Available for its call.

In this way, the anger in his heart can be calmed down. "

"it is good."

……

……

When Shen Liuzhen went home, he passed by Xie Yuan's General's Mansion. Based on the principle of trying his luck to see if she was at home, he knocked on the door.

As soon as the gatekeeper opened the door, seeing that Shen Liuzhen recognized him, he said:
"Oh, it's Mr. Shen. Our general is at home today, but he said thank you behind closed doors. You'd better come back another day."

"Why?" Shen Liuzhen couldn't help asking.

"Today, the general's old subordinates at the border finally arrived, so the general summoned all the principals and deputy of the guard camp, and held a banquet to make everyone familiar and familiar, so as not to disturb outsiders."

"Oh... banquet?" Shen Liuzhen wanted to turn around and walk when he heard that Xie Yuan was busy with military affairs.After realizing the word 'banquet', his heels immediately stuck to the ground.
