The past life is cold and the present life is warm

Shao Zhikan continued to look neither humble nor overbearing and said with lowered eyes: "Your Majesty, there is no need to go to the trouble now. I invited them when I invited them to dinner yesterday. But they said they were just passing through the capital. Just two or three more days. They planned to leave Beijing on the [-]st. They said that the prices in the capital were really unbearable for ordinary people like them."

Xiao Jingchang's eyes gradually became blurred when he looked at Shao Zhihan. And suddenly there was a muffled groan inside the car. Jamel Xiao turned his head and looked down. Then he frowned and nodded in front of himself. The car curtain was lowered. Xiao Jingchang's voice came from behind the curtain: "In that case, it is a pity. Then I will leave, and the prince will do what he wants."

Jamel Xiao just finished speaking. The carriage started to move. Not long after the carriage drove out, Shao Zhikan and Wu Sheng heard a slight moan. Then there was a clang.

The clang was accompanied by exclamations. Only then did Wu Sheng speak: "Master, when did King Huaisi have such great power that he could enter the palace in a carriage?"

Shao Zhikan also frowned and shook his head. He really hadn't heard anything about it. The most important thing is that the floods in Lingnan have been the top priority recently. The uncle gave this opportunity to Xiao Jinrong. It seemed like nothing big happened.

Wu Sheng saw Shao Zhikan and didn't know it, so he pushed Shao Zhikan and continued to the imperial prison. By the way, he changed the subject and said, "What was King Huaisi doing here just now? His voice sounded weird. What's more important is that the way he looked at you, Master. That look was too disgusting."

Shao Zhikan sighed and said: "It doesn't matter what he looks at. As long as you don't offend me. Let the twenty people you picked out tonight meet with Su Xiujie. Then protect the three of them." . But don’t confront others head-on. Just ensure their safety and your life will be safe.”

Wu Sheng nodded and said, "I understand."

Coincidentally, when Shao Zhikan arrived at the Imperial Prison, he saw Eunuch Fu standing at the door of a workshop in the Imperial Prison with his hands folded and a fly whisk in his arms. Eunuch Fu turned his head when he heard the sound of wheels rolling over the ground.

After discovering that it was Shao Zhikan, he was a little serious, and his frowning expression immediately turned into a smile. He turned around and saluted Shao Zhikan and said, "Hey, let me tell you. It turns out to be the crown prince. Why did you enter the palace at this time? Do you have something important to report to Your Majesty?"

While Shao Zhikan hurriedly signaled Eunuch Fu to get up, he said with an embarrassed smile: "To be honest, Eunuch, I didn't come to the palace to see my uncle today. I came to the Imperial Prison today for a personal request."

Eunuch Fu immediately asked curiously: "Oh? This is rare. I wonder what the prince's private desire is?"

Shao Zhikan looked a little overwhelmed and said: "This...this..."

Shao Zhikan looked like he didn't know what to say, which made Eunuch Fu even more surprised. The Protector's crown prince would not enter the palace easily on weekdays. Unless there's something urgent. If it wasn't something important, and the emperor just wanted to renew his uncle-nephew relationship with him, he wouldn't even enter the palace. The emperor also had to use the excuse of important matters to trick him into the palace.

Not only did I enter the palace today, it was also because of personal matters. Is this not surprising? He temporarily forgot about his previous worries and continued to ask: "What? Is there something difficult to say, Your Majesty? You can tell me about it, and maybe I can explain it to you. If it's not convenient here, we can change the place to talk."

Shao Zhikan quickly waved his hand and said, "How can I trouble you, father-in-law." He sighed. But he didn't let Eunuch Fu continue to ask questions. He said directly: "I want the imperial eunuch to make a plaque for me as an apology to Su Wanqiu. After all, I refused the marriage, and she is still angry with me." Eunuch Fu heard this. The son immediately became happy. He covered his lips and smiled and said to Shao Zhikan: "Your Majesty, you are confused. There is no way to give a plaque to the girl to apologize. It must be better to give jewelry. Besides, since the Crown Prince cares so much about Miss Su, why don't you give me a plaque?" Why do you want to reject this marriage?"

Shao Zhikan said as if he didn't know what to do for a moment: "Well, the main reason is that her dim sum shop will open in two days. I want to make a plaque for her and hang it on the door."

Eunuch Fu smiled and said with a clear expression: "Okay, okay, as long as you perform well, you will still have a chance. If the prince really likes you, don't give up easily. You go quickly."

Shao Zhikan nodded quickly and went to the carpenter's house. After giving instructions to the carpenter, Shao Zhikan came to the yard again. I saw that Eunuch Fu was still there, and he had returned to the house he was staring at before. Continue to stand there with a frown.

Shao Zhikan went over curiously and asked, "Why are you still here, father-in-law? Is he doing something urgent?"

Eunuch Fu looked around, then walked behind Shao Zhikan and motioned to Wu Sheng to give up his place. After that, Eunuch Fu pushed Shao Zhihan to an uninhabited corner. There is no shelter around and no wall. But Eunuch Fu still looked around uneasily.

Shao Zhihan couldn't help but feel excited about Eunuch Fu's cautious look. Thinking of what Su Wanqiu said before, she couldn't help but frown.

Seeing that there was no one around, Eunuch Fu lowered his voice as much as possible, bent down next to Shao Zhikan's ear, and said at a volume that could only be heard by the two of them: "Your Majesty, next time you see the Emperor, please advise him. This way. Going down is not an option."

Shao Zhikan's heart skipped a beat. There really was something wrong with my uncle. So he also whispered: "What happened to Eunuch Fu? Please tell me in detail. This has no beginning and no end, and I don't have an idea."

Eunuch Fu sighed without saying anything, then shook his head and said, "Didn't the Emperor have a headache for a while before? He also saw the imperial doctors at that time. The imperial doctors didn't find out what was wrong. He just asked His Majesty to rest more and work hard. I also prescribed some soothing medicine. But it’s of no use to your majesty’s headache. This is why your majesty urged you to find the treasure from the previous dynasty some time ago.”

When Eunuch Fu mentioned this, Shao Zhihan's eyes suddenly widened. Then he frowned and said, "Could it be that uncle remembered the curse from the past?"

Eunuch Fu sighed again and nodded and said, "Yes, that's right. So the emperor wants to find those magical secret medicines from the previous dynasty. He is not very interested in the so-called treasures."

Shao Zhikan felt happy in his heart. This news couldn't have come at a better time. I also received a letter from Wu Quantum two days ago, saying that the fake cemetery was almost ready. I will return to Beijing in a while. I should be able to come back before the end of the year. Later he will write a letter to Wu Qun and ask him to prepare some elixirs in the fake tomb.
