[Can't go back, this is the price, it's not worth it. ——Shen Huaxi]

"Did you find that man?" Shen Huaxi propped his chin with one hand, lay sideways on the soft chair and looked at the military book in his hand. He was obviously lazy, but unexpectedly gave people a powerful deterrent feel.

The man kneeling on the ground didn't even dare to lift his head, and replied tremblingly: "Return to the emperor, I... I am not good at doing things, please punish me."

"Forget it, you don't need to investigate this matter any more, just step back." Shen Huaxi's emotion was not revealed in his calm voice, he put down the book in his hand, and watched the minister retreat in fear as if he had escaped a catastrophe. When he went out, the brilliance in his eyes was the passion for power.

"Not enough, not enough..." He took out a dagger from his side and stroked the blade carefully. The young emperor kept murmuring as if in a magic barrier. After a long time, the madness in his eyes gradually dissipated.

"Come on."

"Your servant is here, what instructions does the emperor have?" A servant came in outside the door, and stood respectfully to one side, waiting for Shen Huaxi's order.

"The envoy from Chuan Bainiao Huangdu come here, and prepare tea and snacks. I will wait for him at the rockery in the back garden." Although Jiu Zuo didn't like living in the embassy in the palace, he was an envoy after all. So he came to the palace early in the morning, which also made it easier for Shen Huaxi not to send someone to look for someone outside.

"Yes." The waiter said, stooping and exiting the room.

When Shen Huaxi arrived at the rockery in the back garden, Jiuzheng had already sat and waited in the pavilion next to the rockery for a while, seeing that Shen Huaxi had finally arrived, Jiuzheng stepped forward and saluted unhurriedly.

"Let's all go back."

"Yes." Following Shen Huaxi's order, the guards all around retreated.

It wasn't until the last person disappeared from sight that the serious atmosphere around Shen Huaxi gradually receded, and he changed into a more relaxed demeanor.

"It's only been a few days, Brother Huaxi, you have a pretty good momentum." Standing in front of Shen Huaxi, Jiu Zuo took out his folding fan again, and sat down with Shen Huaxi in the pavilion while shaking it.

In the place where Jiuzheng was sitting just now, there happened to be a set of chess that had just been set up. Jiuzheng's meaning was obvious: "I just bought a set of chess in a shop on the street today, and I want to play together." One round?"

"Okay." Shen Huaxi took the tea handed over by Jiu Zuo, took a sip of it very trustingly, then picked up a chess piece on the chess board, and was about to make the first move, but unexpectedly, there was nothing in front of him.

"Crack!" A child has fallen.

"Actually snatching chess! Jiuzuo, you can do whatever you want!" The familiar tone made it impossible to think that the warm and friendly young man in front of him was the dangerous emperor just now.

"Do you still need to be polite to you?" Jiu Zuo said as he leisurely picked up one of his chess pieces and started to play.

Amidst the clear sound of falling, Jiu Zuo and Shen Huaxi played Tai Chi one after another. Both of them were testing each other's bottom line. They were obviously still friends, but once interests were involved, everything was not so straightforward.

Soon, the chess game came to an end.

"Do you know the leader of the wolf army who used to follow Lord Shen?"

Is it finally getting to the point? With a smile on the corner of Jiuzheng's mouth, he said again: "The person who sneaked into the palace that day?"

"Jiu Zuo, please show mercy, I've been through a miserable life recently." Shen Huaxi looked helplessly at the person opposite him, and he knew from Jiu Zuo's confident tone that the other party had the news he wanted Now, and he himself... Judging from his previous experience in getting along, he is bound to be beaten by the other party.

"Master Jiu, do I look so disrespectful?" That's what he said, but the smile on Jiu Zuo's face was so bright, I'm afraid no one would know that he took advantage of it.

"You're enough. Those who don't know think you're a local hooligan who came here. If you laugh like this, say it quickly if you can." Shen Huaxi looked unhappy on the surface, but there was a little more in his tone. Means to relax.

Although his days in the palace were short, he lived every day with extreme care. When he met yesterday, he suddenly remembered the concealment he had made to him before Jiu Zuo, which made him suspicious subconsciously. He tried it in a hurry, but there was no Too much contact, seeing old friends are still the same now, he somewhat let go.

"Then I'll just say it straight." Jiu Zuo fell down again, took a sip of tea, and then slowly talked about his purpose of coming here: "I hope you cancel that arrest warrant."

How could it be possible that Jiu Zuo did not understand the principles of an emperor and a courtier, he must be sure if he dared to say that, Shen Huaxi raised his eyebrows slightly, picked up a piece and stopped in mid-air, did not move or speak.

"You guessed right, that person is indeed staying with Lord Shen now, but I will bring you what you want, you don't have to go to him."

"You didn't care about these things before." Shen Huaxi threw away the previous indifference, and there was a bit of complexity in his expression.

"Of course I won't mind my own business." The arc of Jiuzuo's mouth deepened, and an instant arrogance spread in the invisible space. Although he couldn't see it, he couldn't ignore it. He said as a matter of course: "However, this It's the business of my future pillow, not a trivial matter."

"Okay, I promise you." Shen Huaxi didn't say any more, Jiuzheng's request was not too much, and who Jiuzheng liked was Jiuzheng's business, as long as he was the same as before, take care of his own affairs, and follow the trend It's good to get what you want from it. As for why Jiuzheng didn't kill himself this time, Shen Huaxi said, who cares why, it's rare that Jiuzheng is so kind and easy to discuss.

"However, I didn't expect that when you were so generous, let your rival spy on the person you fancy, can you really bear it, Jiuzheng?"

"People's hearts are a very big science, and the love in it..." Jiu Zuo stopped talking, although the game of chess was not over, but there was no need to continue: "Brother Hua Xi, what do you want?" Shen Family Shadow Guard, I will help you snatch it from those people, Prince Shen does not pose any threat to you, so don't attack him."

"A friend's wife should not be bullied, I understand, don't worry." Shen Huaxi said softly, but his eyes were rare and solemn. Shen Huaxi himself was not a talent in martial arts, and he had always been mediocre in martial arts, so this time Jiuzheng He couldn't refuse the conditions given. It was dangerous to be in a high position, and he didn't know how many swords and swords were waiting for him to be careless, and they would attack in groups.

Before Jiu Zuo left, Shen Huaxi gave him another piece of advice: "Jiu Zuo, Lord Shen's tragedy back then was caused by someone behind the scenes, you have to be careful of them."

"I will pay attention, and you should be careful too." Jiuzheng put away the folding fan, smiled sincerely at this friend, turned and left.

There were too many doubts about what happened to Shen Xin back then, and he had investigated it privately, but every time his people caught some clues, there would be an invisible force that prevented him from continuing to investigate thoroughly.

Jiuzuo phoenix narrowed his eyes slightly, counting the doubts in his mind.

Originally, this Phoenix City should belong to Shen Xin. Although Shen Xin was kicked out of Phoenix City before, after all, there is no overnight enmity between father and son. If Shen Xin's father really didn't want Shen Xin to come back, why didn't he continue to train him? an heir?The heart of the superior is unpredictable. Before the imperial decree was issued, no one dared to conclude that Shen Xin would not have the chance to ascend to the throne of God. This also caused why no one really inherited the Phoenix City after the Phoenix City had no owner, nor did anyone The minister dared to refute Lord Shen's appearance directly, but he used the bullshit elders' cruelty and cold-bloodedness as an excuse to slow down Shen Xin's steps.

What happened back then was like being controlled by a pair of invisible big hands, making everyone a pawn in the game, and Shen Xin was the pawn. However, there is one thing that I can't figure out, why the person behind the scenes How to do it, he can be sure that Shen Huaxi just picked up a ready-made, and the people behind the scenes are obviously only targeting Shen Xin.

"The human heart is a very delicate knowledge. It seems complicated, but the truth may be simpler than imagined." Jiu Zuo sighed softly. In fact, he had asked himself the question that Shen Huaxi asked him before.

"Can you bear it?"

If you can't, you have to bear it, Jiuzheng replied in his heart, looking up, he has arrived in front of Wanhualou, Jiuzheng opened the folding fan, with a frivolous smile on his face, covering up his true emotions.

He must bear it, he must bear it, Shen Xin will be targeted at any time, he can't take action to protect the other party on the bright side, that would be equivalent to revealing his hole card, what he wants is "If the mantis does not catch the cicada, the oriole will follow" , just put Shen Xin in the open, how could he be at ease, so he could only bear it for the time being.

"It's okay, it will always be mine." Jiu Zuo said confidently.
