Daming: After self-explosive time travel, Lao Zhu's mentality collapsed

Chapter 271 The things in the box are likely to be harmful to Sapphire
"I'll see the person first, and you'll know later." Chu Ze patted Zhu Xi's hand away and continued walking inside.

He had a ruthless look on his face.

Zhu Xi followed behind Chu Ze, and gave him a white middle finger at his back in disgust.

Chu Ze paused.

Zhu Xi's heart suddenly rose, and he quickly retracted his vertical fingers, and hid his hands behind his back.

He stood in the yard, looking at Chu Ze's back anxiously.

Chu Ze also happened to turn his head back, and he said, "What's wrong with you?"

"...No." Zhu Xi shook his head with a dry smile.

"Then why do you have a guilty expression?"

Zhu Xi sneered twice, let the matter go with a haha, and asked Chu Ze: "Aren't you in a hurry to interrogate those two people? Why did you stop suddenly?"

"Isn't that just about to ask you, where are those two people?" As soon as he turned around, he saw Zhu Xi's expression.

Zhu Xi's heart suddenly dropped, and he even secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

He just said, how could this person have eyes behind his back.

Zhu Xi's heart was fixed, and his whole body was more relaxed and casual. He pointed to the room next to him and said, "It's right there."

Looking at the man whose expression changed drastically, Chu Ze's eyes became more suspicious.

Connecting what happened just now, Chu Ze narrowed his eyes slightly, walked up to Zhu Xi, looked at him carefully, and said quietly: "Be honest, did you do something behind my back just now?"

Chu Ze didn't see it just now, but now Zhu Xi can recognize it?

He is not stupid.

Zhu Xi shook his head like a wavy drum, and insisted: "No, absolutely not."

"Really do not have?"

"No."

Chu Ze stared at Zhu Xi for a while, but finally let him go.

Chu Ze followed Zhu Xi's directions and came to the place where the servants were being held.

He pushed the door open and walked in, only to see two men kneeling on the ground with their bodies tied up.

There was no one else in the room except them.

This is also because Chu Ze has confessed that the less people know about it, the better. Therefore, after Zhu Xi caught him, he sent him to the Xiaoyao Building, which specializes in punishing gamblers, and secretly found a few The confidant secretly sent the person to the Zhenfu Department to wait for Chu Ze's interrogation.

When a person enters the Zhenfusi, it is like a fish caught in the net, and it will be difficult to escape.

Therefore, there is no need to keep guards here.

When the servant saw Chu Ze and the two coming in, his body trembled slightly.

The light in the room was bright enough for Chu Ze to see the fear in their eyes clearly.

Chu Ze sneered in his heart: How dare you frame someone with this little courage?
Simply ridiculous.

Chu Ze went straight to the first seat and sat down: "Tell me, what are your names."

The two domestic servants looked at each other and reported their names with interest.

Chu Ze: "Then do you know why I arrested you?"

The servant on the left said tremblingly, "Because we gamble?"

Gambling was banned during the Hongwu period, and Zhu Xi also used this excuse to arrest them.

But this was a game in the first place, even the person who lured them to participate in the gambling was arranged by Zhu Xi.

The two always thought that they were unlucky, so they were arrested.

But as soon as they entered the Zhen Fu Division, they understood it in their hearts.

Gambling or something is probably done deliberately by the person in front of him, and the real thing is to catch them.

After thinking through this layer, the fear in the hearts of the two people became more and more intense.

But they still have a glimmer of hope.

"My lord, it's wrong for us to gamble, but according to the law of my court, if you are caught gambling, you will only be sent to Xiaoyao Building. Now your lord has brought the two of us here. I'm afraid it's against the rules." The servant on the right is courageous If you are older, you have already entered the Zhenfu Department, and you dare to talk to Chu Ze about the rules.

The last thing Chu Ze talked about was the rules.

He looked at the two of them, and said with a sneer: "It's all in my hands, and you still want to enter Xiaoyao Tower?"

is it possible?

"Tell me, what did you guys want to do sneaking outside the Lan Mansion in the middle of the night that night?" Chu Ze didn't bother to talk nonsense to them, so he got straight to the point.

The two domestic servants pretended to be puzzled: "My lord, I can't understand what you said. Did we go to the Lan Mansion in the middle of the night? Could it be that your lord has admitted the wrong person and wronged a good man."

No oil and salt.

Chu Ze could see that the two of them were going to be tough.

That being the case, he didn't waste his time talking anymore, turned his head and hooked his fingers, called Zhu Xi to the front, and ordered in front of the two servants: "These two are hard-headed, Xi, don't bother It’s over, sending them to the Xiaoyao Tower is also cheap for them, and they probably won’t be afraid of starving for a few days. In this way, I remember that there are quite a lot of torture tools in the prison city, right? Take them out and use them one by one.”

He didn't believe that the mouths of these two people could be so hard.

Everyone in Daming, even if they haven't seen it, have heard of the criminal law in the Imperial Prison.

It can be said to be frightened.

Skinning and tearing apart, only they can't think of it, there is no prison that can't do it.

After Chu Ze took over, the situation was slightly better.

But things are still there, but no one uses them on weekdays.

Now that it was brought up, the faces of the two servants turned pale with fright.

The two grabbed the ground with their heads: "Let's say, we will answer whatever your lord asks, please be merciful!"

That's right.

The corner of Chu Ze's mouth curled up: "Answer my previous question, remember, I want to listen to the truth."

How dare the two servants lie.

Chu Ze's voice was about to fall, and the two of them poured out everything they knew like beans in a bamboo tube: "Returning to my lord, that night, the two of us were ordered by lord Yu Xing to quietly send a box to you." Into the study of the Blue Mansion."

Chu Ze immediately asked again: "What is the gift?"

"We don't know either. We only know that it's a carved wooden box. As for what's inside, Mr. Yu doesn't allow us to open it. He only asks us to send things in, and doesn't even ask much."

Chu Ze believed this.

After the two finished speaking, Chu Ze immediately asked, "Where is that thing exactly?"

"In the hidden compartment on the floor of Sapphire's study."

After getting the specific location, Chu Ze didn't dare to stay for a moment, and immediately went to the Lan Mansion.

The things in that box are likely to be harmful to Sapphire.

Things must be found immediately, the longer they are stored, the less safe they are.

Zhu Xi just listened to a play, and before he heard the name, he saw that Chu Ze was about to leave.

He hurriedly followed, and the two got into the carriage: "By the way, you haven't told us yet, what's going on here?"

At this moment, Chu Ze didn't hide anything from him anymore, and told in detail what he heard in the alley that day, and why he wanted to arrest these two people.

After hearing this, Zhu Xi said, "No wonder you are in such a hurry."

"But Yu Xing doesn't seem like someone who would do such things."

Zhu Xi was a little puzzled.

Chu Ze snorted coldly: "Is there anything you can't figure out, is there still less intrigue in the officialdom?" Since Lan Yu is his father-in-law, he can't ignore it.

The carriage stopped at the Lan Mansion, and people who did not need to be notified in the past were stopped outside the mansion today.

Chu Ze: "?"

Why stop him? ?
