The weather was cold and gloomy, and there was no daylight.
The entire king of Xia seemed to be frozen. The blood left behind a month ago seemed to have not dissipated. The air was filled with a tense and solemn atmosphere. The eunuchs and guards in the inner courtyard of the palace all had expressionless faces. Occasionally, they would pass by each other.
Be cautious, afraid of touching something.
A golden carriage stopped at the gate of Tianlao.
The guard in charge was shocked and knelt down in front of the carriage: "The Regent is a thousand years old!"
A pair of boots with gold threads and auspicious clouds stepped out of the carriage, and the guards did not even dare to raise their heads.
Xia Huanzhi arrived at the door of the prison like the wind. Without him having to give orders, the guards guarding him quickly opened the heavy iron door.
A heavy smell of blood rushed towards him, and Xia Huanzhi frowned.
"Are they still causing trouble these days?"
Heavenly Prison! This is a place where officials of the fourth rank and above are frightened by the news. There are all kinds of torture instruments here. As long as the prisoners get here, they will either wait for death or a life worse than death.
Nowadays, all the senior officials in the imperial court are detained here.
"As far as the regent is concerned, they are all doing well these days. Apart from the occasional grumble, there are no major problems!"
Xia Huanzhi nodded with satisfaction and followed the guards inside.
As soon as he entered the corner, he heard a scolding voice in response coming from the end of the cell: "Prisoner, tell that little bastard Xia Huanzhi something, if you have the guts to lock me up for the rest of my life, or wait until I get out and hack his whole family to death, mom."
Egg!"
It's Di Qing! There's no one else but him who can make this sound!
Xia Huanzhi paused and stopped on the steps.
The warden turned pale with fright, and looked at Xia Huanzhi with a little embarrassment: "Prince Regent... this... don't take it to heart. General Di has been imprisoned for so many days, and he is angry. It has been a long time, and I have to enlighten him."
It’ll be okay!”
As soon as Di Qing finished speaking, he heard Song Ke, the cabinet scholar, say calmly: "You have cursed the same sentence seventeen or eight times, are you tired? You generals only use a few curse words back and forth, and you can't even curse people."
If you want to scold in a style, it's insulting to be polite to scold someone like you in an unorganized manner. There is no one like you who calls out before a battle. It has been said since ancient times that you should not slap someone in the face, and you should not curse someone's mother..."
"Shut up!" A chorus of shouts came from the cell.
Everyone including Xia Huan was startled by this neat voice.
Suddenly, Xia Huanzhi felt panicked in his heart.
What is he doing here?
The foot he stepped out suddenly retracted, and Xia Huanzhi ordered with a bit of anger: "Go back to the palace!"
The Tianlao guards were stunned for a moment, then quickly knelt down and saluted: "Farewell to the Regent!"
The carriage creaked away. The eunuch following the carriage opened the curtain and asked softly: "Prince Regent, where are you going next?"
"Royal study room!"
"You just came out of the Imperial Study Room, why did you go back again?"
"Slave dog, I want you to talk too much!" Xia Huanyi pulled the curtain shut, blocking everything outside.
Returning to the imperial study, Xia Huanzhi took off his mink cloak and made a movement to relax his shins. The accompanying eunuch quickly handed over a hot towel: "The Prince Regent, the Ministry of Revenue, the Ministry of Works, the Ministry of Personnel and the Ministry of War have all given me the papers.
Yes, do you want to go and have a look?"
Xia Huanzhi took a deep breath and looked at the eunuch who spoke in horror. The eunuch trembled in fright: "Prince Regent, this slave deserves to die, this slave deserves to die!"
ps: I wasn’t feeling well a few days ago, but I’m feeling better today. I’ll add another chapter to my long review!!!
