Imperial City Investigative Department

Chapter 229 See You Tonight (Part [-])
Wu Chen put away his pitiful expression and said seriously:
"Others think how capable I am. They listen to my orders everywhere. If I don't move, they naturally won't move. This task is indeed embarrassing for them. This kind of thing may not happen once in a few lifetimes. Anyone who puts it will be hurt. , they followed me all the way with only their guts..."

"You are righteous!" Li Heng stood up, looked at the branches outside the door and asked, "When can I see you?"

"If His Majesty can't see it, I can send a message. Even if I don't send a message, His Majesty can see it, but I can't let His Majesty see it alone."

"In this way, you will definitely die."

Wu Chen smiled and said, "If Your Majesty wants to kill me, he won't come in person. I can sleep soundly tonight."

"It's hard to say!" After Li Heng finished speaking, he walked out of the room.

The people under the eaves followed closely behind, their big heads holding up the branches and kowtowing again and again, but Wu Chen stood still in the house.

……

Not long after, Senior Two and Xu Da came back, and they entered the room with their heads down.

Wu Chen was sitting in the room reflecting on what he had just done, when he saw the two of them coming in with drooping eyebrows, he asked with a smile, "Si Zun asked you to come here and ask what the officials and I have said?"

Xu Da looked at the sophomore and said, "Look, I said Brother Wu must understand."

"You reported back to Si Zun, saying that the officials want to see the female ghost, and you also asked about other things in the other courtyard, but I was worried that I would die soon, so I just complained that Si Zun shouldn't give me this job."

The second year of high school frowned and asked, "Are you really complaining about Si Zun to the officials?"

"Of course, the officials want to see the female ghost, can they see it? Don't they need me to spread the word? As I said earlier, we don't know who the female ghost is, and the officials must know. Since the officials can come, it can be seen what kind of ghost this female is." Important, things that no one else can know, but I want to know, you say I can not worry about my life? Can you not complain? "

After hearing this, the second grader turned around and wanted to leave, but was grabbed by Xu Da and said, "Why are you going?"

"I'll go to Si Zun and report back like this."

"Both of our butts are not touching the chair when we come back, so you go and report, can Si Zun not notice that you are lying?"

The second grader frowned, and sat down on the chair angrily.

Wu Chen persuaded:

"Second brother, don't be upset. No matter how the eldest brother and the second brother report, Si Zun will not believe it, but the time should not be too short. If Si Zun doesn't believe me, I don't believe him either. Instead, it will be difficult for you to be caught in the middle. You all tell the truth, anyway, he doesn’t believe it, so it’s easier for you.”

"Tell me everything truthfully?" Xu Da asked.

Wu Chen nodded and said, "You say that I am loyal to Si Zun, but he is even more suspicious. You will still reveal your flaws after repeated questioning. Why don't you just tell the truth and say that I know everything, know what cookies mean, and know what cookies mean? Si Zun's intention is unavoidably upset."

"Can……"

"He can't do anything to me, at least not now. After leaving the other courtyard, maybe he can't do anything."

"I don't understand." Gao Er shook his head repeatedly.

Xu Da said: "We can do whatever Brother Wu tells us to do, we can't go wrong."

"Then you can't tell the truth about what you said just now, can you?" the sophomore asked.

Even Wu Chen was a little anxious this time: "Are you really stupid?"

The sophomore in high school laughed foolishly.

Xu Da asked Wu Chen, "Aren't you going to meet Si Zun?"

"I've seen it. Besides, if he's pulled like that, I won't disturb him to rest."

The sophomore leaned forward and said in a low voice: "I think Si Zun is seriously ill this time."

Xu Da also sat down and said:
"I see that the faces of the little eunuchs serving by Si Zun's side are all pale. I guess Si Zun has been like this for a day or two. Think about it, how can the official's clothes not be accompanied by a useful imperial physician? But the imperial physician has no It can be cured."

"Fortunately, it's an imperial doctor. If it was a doctor elsewhere, I'm afraid Si Zun would have killed him long ago."

Wu Chen didn't say anything, he was still thinking about how to pass that night.

……

Gao Er and Xu Da talked for a while before going to find Chen Zhong to return to his life, and soon came back. Senior Gao Er happily whispered to Wu Chen: "Si Zun saw that we didn't even open our eyes, so we came out after we finished talking. Si Zun didn't say a word."

Wu Chen said: "He really can't stand such a torment at his age. Have you seen Song Tixing and Deputy Envoy Yu?"

Senior Two and Xu Da both shook their heads.

At dinner, Wu Chen didn't see Song Gu and Yu Shi'an either. He wasn't worried about what happened to them, but he was called by the officials to question them, and then they had dinner with them. The two had been officials for many years, so it shouldn't Difficult to deal with.

But when the officials left, they said, "It's hard to say!" 'What do you mean?
Wu Chen was a little flustered, and he didn't eat much for dinner. The big head could see that Wu Chen was worried, so he whispered to Wu Chen after eating, "Don't be afraid, at worst, we will run away."

Wu Chen looked at Da Tou in surprise, and Da Tou glanced at Gao Er and Xu Da, who were lowering their heads and muttering, and leaned into Wu Chen's ear and said, "Although I can only beg for food, I can learn to farm, and you can steal it later." Ping Gu picked it up, it's also very good."

Wu Chen stared at Datou with wide eyes, and the sophomore saw this and asked, "Brother Datou has flowers growing on his head?"

The big head hurriedly said: "You have flowers growing on your head!"

Just as Wu Chen was about to say something, he saw a branch under his feet, and the female ghost was crawling out of the branch.

"What are you doing out here? Go back!" Wu Chen snapped.

At this time, the sky outside was completely dark, don't look at Gao Er and Xu Dagan sitting on the branches during the day, at night, they are still a little scared.

Hearing Wu Chen's scolding, the two of them moved the stool aside in agreement, stretched their heads and went straight to sleep.

"You killed Li Heng, I will give you whatever you want!" The female ghost's dark eyes turned red tonight.

Wu Chen frowned and asked, "After a day in the sun, you still have strength, why don't we go break into the formation again?"

"Think about it, if I tell the truth, you will die! He won't let you live." The female ghost's voice was hoarse and sharp, very unpleasant.

"If I want to live, no one can take my life. You don't have to worry. When you see the official tomorrow, you can just say nothing. I won't know anything. Just save my life."

Wu Chen said it casually, the female ghost wanted to climb up the table, but Wu Chen picked up the branch and slapped it back.

The sophomore in high school was startled, and hurriedly asked, "Did the female ghost threaten you?"

"What is she threatening me with? Tell me that I will not let me go even if I die?" Wu Chen winked at the second year of high school after speaking, which meant that someone was coming.

Soon, an old eunuch hurried into the yard. Wu Chen greeted him with a branch. The old eunuch straightened his back and said, "Your Majesty Xuan Wu has to take what you should bring, and go to the riverside for an audience."

Wu Chen was stunned, why should we meet at night?Still by the river?He couldn't beat that thing in the river, why would the officials order him to meet there?And female ghosts are harder to control at night than during the day.
