Chapter 44 The Summer Palace

The office offices of the five governments and six ministries are lined up along Bianliang Yu Street. On the south street is the Kaifeng Prefecture Office, and on the east street are the Ministry of Personnel, Ministry of Revenue, Ministry of Rites, Ministry of War, Ministry of Works, and even Hanlin Academy, Imperial Hospital and other civil office offices, but there is no Ministry of Justice.

This is because the Ministry of Justice and other yamen are not popular. The Ministry of Justice and Dali Temple, which specialize in arresting people, are all located in Fucaifang, Xicheng. The prisoners detained in the prison of the Ministry of Justice are not imperial prisoners in the imperial prison. Most of them are ordinary people who commit crimes. Most of them accumulate one place, and it is inevitable that they are overcrowded.

Chen Shou was ordered to come to the lobby of the Ministry of Justice, which was surrounded by three floors and three floors outside.

Under the guidance of the public, Chen Shou came to the lobby of the Ministry of Justice. A row of corpses were displayed on the ground. Several officials looked serious and sat upright, without looking sideways.

An old man sat in the upper head. When the toll who was leading the way pulled his sleeve, Chen Shou hurried forward, clasped his fists and bent down and said, "Secretary Chen Shou, I have met Lord Shangshu."

"Emperor Chen is exempted from courtesy. You are from Xiliang. Someone here reported the case, saying that the prince of the general of the Western Expedition was killed. Come forward and see if the prince was killed?"

Chen Shou didn't need to lift it up, just looking at his clothes, he knew that it was Li Jin. He lifted the skull and there was a headless corpse among the many corpses. After a closer look, his head was cut off and placed on his broken neck.

Chen Shou endured his strong vomiting and stepped forward to see that it was indeed Li Jin.

He sighed softly, his eyes smeared, and his heart was mixed, "This is the prince of my General's Mansion in the West, Li Jin."

A burst of exclamations in the lobby gathered into a large amount of movement. It seemed that a big rock was smashed in Chen Shou's heart, which made him very depressed.

With his knuckles curled up gently in his sleeves, he raised his head and said in a low voice: "The prince was killed for no reason. I also asked the Ministry of Justice to find out the truth as soon as possible to arrest the murderer so that he could give Xiliang an explanation."

Liu Yu, the Minister of Justice, had a wrinkled face like a tree bark, cursing in his heart, "I'm not easy to catch the murderer, and it's impossible to investigate." Even if he can really investigate, would he dare to find out the real murderer?

Those who dare to kill the prince of the General's Mansion near the Imperial City must know that behind it is the game of the upper class.

When he was worried about his toothache, a cavalry in brocade came outside. After squeezing the crowd, he looked around and said, "Who is Chen Shou, the commander of the Eastern Palace."

"I'm."

The cavalry nodded and said loudly: "Chen Shou, Your Majesty announces that you will visit the summer palace to meet you."

This incident has alarmed the emperor. He is trying to express his attitude to Xiliang. Chen Shou began to think about what the old emperor would do?

He hugged the officials of the Ministry of Justice and said, "Please beg you all."

---

As soon as he left the Ministry of Justice, Chen Shou followed the two horse-dressed horses and was about to meet the saint. Two people came down from the carriage in the distance and waved to him.

"Shou'er, come here."

When Chen Shou saw that it was Wei Ning and Miao De. They were probably accompanying him in the summer palace. When they heard that the emperor wanted to summon him, they came to give him some instructions.

Sure enough, after Chen Shou came over, Miao De knew that the emperor was going to see him, so he lowered his voice and said, "Your Majesty attaches great importance to etiquette. This is the first time you meet your Majesty. Don't lose your etiquette."

Chen Shou did not understand the etiquette of facing the saints. Miao De said to the two imperial cavalrymen: "You go first, let us take him to the summer palace."

"In this way, I'll have two high-ranking officials."

Chen Shou got on the carriage of the two of them, and Miao De talked about the steps of meeting the saint without getting tired of it, and asked Chen Shou to keep it in mind.

When they approached the summer palace, they got off the car and previewed it before taking Chen Shou into the palace.

As the sun sets, the heat gradually faded. Chen Shou took a deep breath of the refreshing air outside the country and looked up at the summer palace on the top of the mountain.

I saw this palace built against the mountain, with rows of towers and halls spread all over the mountains, with a large scale and a magnificent magnificent and shocking.

In addition to the magnificent buildings all over the mountains, there are also several feet high walls surrounded by shrouds of walls, with arrows on the walls, and whistles in sight. Countless officers and soldiers guarding them. Any uninvited guest who dares to approach this summer palace will immediately be devastating!

Bianliang is known for its prosperity, but this summer palace located in the center of Bianliang has a completely different tranquility and leisure from the busy and noisy city of Bianliang.

With Miao De and Wei Ning leading the way, Chen Shou was unobstructed all the way. Miao De held him with a hint of concern in his eyes and asked, "Shou'er, what are you going to say when you see Your Majesty?"

Chen Shou knew in his heart that these adopted fathers had no malice towards him. Although he didn't know why Sothmore had such a big face, he was also a little moved.

He did not hide anything from the two people and whispered: "Your Majesty is in a hurry to see me, and most of them are sending messages to the general's house through me, indicating that this matter has nothing to do with Your Majesty and the court. In my opinion, this matter is not done by Your Majesty and the civil servants."

Miao De nodded frequently, "If you think of this, we will feel at ease."

As soon as he finished speaking, the carriage stopped. The three of them walked out of the carriage, and Chen Shou helped the two old eunuchs' godfathers down one by one.

Since he borrowed the power of others, there was no reason to pretend to be noble. Chen Shou treated the four of them as godfathers from the bottom of his heart.

As long as you sincerely help yourself, what's wrong with being a eunuch? On the contrary, if you murder yourself everywhere, you will not increase your favorability even if you are longer than Lao Ai.

When I entered the moon gate, I saw that the inner palace of the summer palace was in the depths of the courtyard hall, the porch was open, the screens and curtains were surrounded, and the guards and eunuchs stood silently.

After walking a few steps, there were more and more people around him. The old emperor surrounded him sitting on the couch. With a quick glance, Chen Shou did not dare to look again.

His face was a little sallow, and there were vaguely brown age spots on his wrinkled face, and his big belly leaned against the couch, like a pool of meat.

This is the emperor of the Great Qi, the monarch Zhao Fu, who dominates millions of creatures in Jiangbei?

A trace of awe of imperial power collapsed in Chen Shou's heart, leaving only four words: But that's it.

Chen Shou stepped forward three steps, stopped about ten meters in front of the stairs, bent down slightly, and clasped his fists and said loudly: "My minister Chen Shou has seen Your Majesty."

Zhao Fu looked at him and was stunned for a moment, "Chen Shou? Have you seen me before?"

The sound was a bit dry and hoarse, weaker than that of an ordinary old man. It seemed that the emperor was old and did not know how to control it.

"I have lived in Xiliang forever and have never been lucky enough to meet the saint."

Hey...why does it feel a little familiar? Zhao Fu shook his head and said, "Li Wei's son is dead. I am very sad. I have ordered that the real murderer be found no matter what."
