Just when everyone in the square outside the Meridian Gate had their hair standing on end, their hairs stood on end, and their whole bodies felt cold, the atmosphere in the hall of the East Police Factory was unusually warm.
In the middle of the hall, Lin Shangli set up a special stove. A medium-sized iron pot was placed on it, and half of the pot was filled with water.
Just yesterday afternoon, Lin Shangli finally thought about the whole matter clearly and was freed from the melancholy of being rejected by the emperor. Full of ambition, he went to Dongchang Prison to find Liao Xianghe for the final battle.
Although it ended in defeat, it did not affect his determination to do a good job in Dongchang and continue to go all out to solve the emperor's problems.
After returning, Lin Shangli carefully analyzed the current situation of Dongchang, and finally completely corrected his position.
In Dongchang, he is the absolute leader that no one can say anything about, but he is only the leader in terms of his position. To be the leader in solving the case, it must be Xiao Chen.
From now on, in terms of coordination with various departments in the DPRK and the Central Government, some official activities will be solved by myself. As for the actual handling of the case, front-line detection, analysis of the case, the specific arrest time, and the arrangement of the arrest operation, it will be left to me.
Let Xiao Chen take full responsibility.
In this way, everyone can give full play to their strengths, perform their respective duties, and sit down and communicate when necessary, so that Dongchang will prosper and go further.
As the apparent leader of Dongchang, he must have a good relationship with Xiao Chen, the leader in terms of strength. Let him, a young man who works in Dongchang as an ordinary school captain, truly have a sense of belonging to Dongchang.
.
Especially this morning, Wang Xiaosi personally delivered the imperial gift of unicorn purple clothes to Dongchang. Lin Shangli saw the glory of Dongchang, and his desire to have a good relationship with Xiao Chen became even more urgent.
After Liao Xianghe was taken from Dongchang Prison to the execution ground, Lin Shangli communicated with Xiao Lizi. He learned that the most profound thing in Xiao Chen's memory was that the three of them had been hungry for who knows how many days, and finally found themselves in a room.
The feeling of satisfaction after eating a boiled chicken drumstick in a ruined temple.
From this point of view, Xiao Chen is a nostalgic person and a passionate person.
During the Chinese New Year, even if he arranged a seafood dinner that was almost unparalleled in the entire Ming Dynasty, for Xiao Chen and the others, it would only leave the impression of "luxury" at most.
Today, Xiao Chen received the only royal gift from the Ming Dynasty, the Kirin Purple Clothes. He should celebrate it with him, both in public and private matters.
Since the delicacies of mountains and seas cannot impress him, then celebrate him with the thing that is most profound in his memory.
In this way, Lin Shangli set up a stove in the hall, and arranged for Xiao Lizi to buy some chicken legs on the street. He also specifically asked to look for the kind of raw chicken drumsticks that they remembered without any processing.
Sitting in front of the stove, Lin Shangli was thinking about whether to give Xiao Chen a meal for a thousand households. Little Lizi held four chicken drumsticks in his hands and ran back in small steps.
His face was red and he was breathing heavily.
"Buy a chicken drumstick, why are you in such a hurry? Who else is chasing you on the way?" Lin Shangli raised his head and glanced at Xiao Lizi and said.
"Your Excellency, Duan Tianming and Du Shaoqin, have escorted Liao Xianghe back to the Dongchang Prison." Xiao Lizi said hurriedly after finally regaining his composure.
"I'm back as soon as I come back. Why are you in a hurry? What, you said you brought Liao Xianghe back again?" Lin Shangli dropped the charcoal in his hand, stood up with a bang, and looked at Xiao Lizi in disbelief.
In his memory, as long as the execution ground outside the Meridian Gate was arranged, there was no such thing as a prisoner coming back alive. This Xiao Chen took the courage of a bear and a leopard, and as a prison officer, he secretly imprisoned prisoners.
Come back?
Although he has already acquiesced that Xiao Chen is the leader of Dongchang's case handling affairs, he must not ignore the matter of escorting the prisoner back from the execution ground. Once the emperor is angry, taking back the purple clothes is a trivial matter. If he has murderous intentions, Dongchang will
Life or death is a matter of a thought.
"Are you dazzled? Don't make any guesses out of thin air?" Although Lin Shangli was anxious, he still wanted to confirm the authenticity of the matter.
"It's not dazzling. Did they really escort Liao Xianghe back? Or Du Shaoqin and Duan Tianming personally escorted him." Xiao Lizi said seriously with a red face.
"Then you didn't ask them, what is this special thing?" Lin Shangli felt even more anxious.
"After asking, they said that someone rushed into the provincial execution ground and delayed the execution. Xiao Chen asked them to escort them back to Liao Xianghe and wait for the emperor to make a new decision." Xiao Lizi said.
"Someone rushed to the execution ground? Someone dared to rush to the execution ground outside the Meridian Gate? Who is this short-sighted person and saved Liao Xianghe's life?" Hearing that this was the reason, Lin Shangli was not worried about Xiao Chen's safety at all.
In his impression, Xiao Chen seemed to have no opponent whether it was a literary or martial fight. However, he accidentally killed Liao Xianghe, which made him feel a little uncomfortable.
Although it was rare for Liao Xianghe to die, if he lived for one more day, there would be a lump stuck in his throat and he would feel extremely uncomfortable.
"They didn't say who rushed into the execution ground?"
"It seems to be a minister of the DPRK. They don't know him. They only said that he is wearing a second-grade court uniform." Xiao Lizi thought for a moment and answered hastily.
"Second-rank minister of the imperial court? Who is this stupid idiot who wants to rush into the execution ground where Xiao Chen is being executed?" Lin Shangli's mind was spinning rapidly.
He knew all the ministers in the court. Who would provoke Xiao Chen outside the Meridian Gate?
No, you have to go and see for yourself. No matter who the opponent is, rushing into Xiao Chen's execution ground is a provocation to Dongchang. Xiao Chen and the others may not take it seriously, but with his old face, he can still scare them.
Thinking of this, Lin Shangli pointed to the stove and looked at Xiao Lizi: "You cook the chicken legs, and I'll go take a look outside the Meridian Gate."
As he said that, he threw up his old arms and legs and ran towards the square outside the Meridian Gate in a hurry.
The location of the East Factory is not far from the Meridian Gate. Perhaps because of his anxiety, Lin Shangli felt that today's journey was actually very far.
No matter who dares to rush into the execution ground today, he must give a memorial in front of the emperor and be punished properly. However, everyone understands that no one can rush into the execution ground in Dongchang.
While thinking about it, Lin Shangli quickened his pace, fearing that he would not be able to catch up with this theoretical opportunity.
After finally getting out of the Meridian Gate, looking at the dark crowd surrounding him, Lin Shangli was about to squeeze in when he heard a low roar like a beast.
I quickly found a place with steps, stood up, and looked inside.
Seeing this, Lin Shangli's heart suddenly rose to his throat again.
Xiao Chen was pressing the high-ranking official on the guillotine, cutting something like a saw with the big knife in his hand.
"It's over, this stupid young man is killing people. I have to plead with the emperor for him first."
Lin Shangli wiped the hot sweat from his forehead and ran towards the palace again.
