Chapter 604: Be prepared for danger in times of peace (8)

"In this case, to prevent future troubles, we'll ask all the questions we need to ask and then execute him on the spot." Sui Zhao patted his clothes and stood up, speaking calmly about the words that could decide someone's life or death, "I'm hungry, I'm going home for breakfast."

Shen Siwei didn't recognize her at first because he took office after his brother came to power, and he wouldn't go out of his way to look for their portraits. After all, who would dare to ask for royal portraits unless they had a keen eye for it?

Or maybe, Shen Siwei knew that although he had never seen her parents or her, he had seen her brother. Her brother's father, who died early, was a twin of her father, so her brother also looked a bit like her father.

Those who handle cases will look at the face. Even if Shen Siwei didn't recognize him at first, he still couldn't recognize him after seeing him so many times. At his current age, he can't be a commander.

He holds great power at such a young age. He cannot be stupid. He must have some strengths.

But this group of people with bad intentions are different. They must have tried every possible means to find the royal portrait and wait for an opportunity to act.

"Shen Siwei, after you have finished questioning, send someone to my house to tell me my confession."

"Ah."

Sui Zhao looked at Shuang Xu and said, "Let's go."

"Okay, miss!" Shuang Xu began to lead the way, and several black shadows followed them away.

Jiang Lin leaned over to Shen Siwei and asked, "Sir, is that really Princess Kangle?"

I heard that Her Royal Highness the Princess was deeply loved by the Supreme Emperor, and the Current Emperor also doted on her. He scolded Her Royal Highness the Princess last time, but fortunately Her Royal Highness did not hold it against him.

"Well, let's try it faster."

Sui Zhao came home exhausted. When he saw Zhu Fuli, he leaned against her and acted like a spoiled child: "Mom, I'm so tired and hungry. I need you to coax me."

Zhu Fuli rubbed her head and said, "After dinner, take a shower and have a good sleep."

She is quiet and only moves occasionally, but An An is active and lively. She is happy every day like a sweet baby, and her smile makes people feel better.

This is good. She and her husband love and spoil their child with all their heart, so they should be happy like this.

"Okay." Sui Zhao curved his eyes towards her and hugged her again, "I'm leaving, mother."

"Well, let's go."

Yan Tinglan took her hand and lowered his head, "Ali, how about we go for a walk in the village?"

"Okay." Zhu Fuli kissed him on the face skillfully, and the smile on his lips widened.

After waking up from a nap, Sui Zhao opened the door and went out of the outer courtyard, and saw a tall figure standing in the courtyard.

"Shen Siwei, who are you looking for?" she asked with a smile, standing there like a large decorative wooden sculpture.

Shen Siwei turned around, his gaze rested on her eyes for two breaths, lowered his eyes and handed out a few pieces of paper on his waist, saying, "I'm here to look for Your Highness."

Sui Zhao took it and read it. It contained everything that group of people had done over the years, their plans, etc. He remembered them clearly.

"Why did Lord Shen come here in person? When you come, just hand it over to anyone in the courtyard. There's no need to wait. Don't delay your business."

"Nothing has happened lately."

Sui Zhao looked up at him, but could not see any other expression on his face. It seemed that there was only one expression on his face. She could occasionally see other expressions on Huai Xu and the others.

It's quite interesting to watch the secret guards bickering with each other. Huai Xu and Shuang Xu are brother and sister, and their conversations can be particularly arrogant at times.

"Would you like to have a cup of tea before leaving?"

"Yes." Shen Siwei responded habitually, and then added: "Thank you, Your Highness."

"You're welcome. Please feel free to sit down." Sui Zhao pulled a chair and sat down while looking at it. "How long will you stay here?"

Shuang Xu poured tea for them.

"March."

"So after you finish your tour of Lizhou, you will return to Beijing to report on your work?"

"Yes, Your Highness, are you going back to Beijing to celebrate the New Year?" Shen Siwei lowered his eyes and looked at the mist rising from the tea soup. In his peripheral vision, he could see the person opposite him flipping through papers.

"It's rare to hear you ask me something." Sui Zhao chuckled, then his voice deepened, "However, it is a taboo to inquire about the whereabouts of the emperor."

Her whereabouts are exactly her father's whereabouts.

Shen Siwei raised his eyes and said, "I made a mistake."

Her voice became brighter, and her eyebrows curved as usual. "I was just joking with you. I wanted to see if you really only have one expression on your face."

A little disappointed, this expression really remains unchanged for thousands of years.

Shen Siwei remained silent for a moment and said, "It is my honor to make your Highness smile."

Sui Zhao put the paper down and said, "Brother and father are relieved to have a loyal minister like Lord Shen. And I am not a cannibal, right? You can be more casual and don't have to be so polite."

"Yeah." Shen Siwei took a sip of tea, sat for a while, and then said goodbye.

Sui Zhao was a little confused. Did he come here just to ask for a cup of tea?

Shuang Xu asked: "Miss, are you going out today?"

"I'm not going out. I need to read. I haven't finished the homework assigned by my father yet."

"Okay, I'll go find a book."

Shen Siwei came down the mountain and returned to the town where he stayed. He was stopped by Jiang Lin: "Sir, where have you been? How do we get to the next section of the road?"

"Take Yuan'an County as the center and investigate the surrounding counties within one month." Shen Siwei did not answer his previous question.

"Yes!" Jiang Lin responded, and then asked: "Sir, have you sent someone to give the confession to Her Royal Highness the Princess? If not, I will send someone to do it. You need to provide the whereabouts of Her Royal Highness."

"Ah."

"Then my subordinate resigns."

Shen Siwei went into his own room in the courtyard, found some clothes, went to the kitchen to fetch water for a bath, had a meal with his men, and then lay down on the bed.

When I closed my eyes, a pair of smiling eyes flashed through my mind.

He was also a person who was influenced by emotions. That rash question was really inconsistent with his cautious style. When she was in danger, the first thing he did was to protect her, even though he knew she didn't need his protection.

Three days later, Sui Zhao took Shuang Xu to the other side of the mountain, looking for some wild mushrooms.

Suddenly realizing someone was looking at him, Sui Zhao turned his head.

It was Shen Siwei again, Shen Siwei holding a bow and arrow, with two people behind him.

I've seen him too many times recently.

Shen Siwei walked up to her, "Your Highness."

"Are you here to hunt?"

He remained calm and said, "Well, meat and vegetables are a bit expensive in the city, and the budget is not enough."

"Write a letter back to the capital to my brother and ask him to allocate more funds to you. You can't treat me unfairly when you work for the court."

Jiang Lin: Didn’t you say that you wanted to go out for a walk to relax?

Yan Chengfeng:? ? I didn’t give enough?

Shen Siwei: "I accidentally destroyed someone else's restaurant while investigating a case and lost a lot of money."

Sui Zhao took out his purse and said, "Here, don't live too poorly."

Shen Siwei stepped back and said, "Thank you, Your Highness. I will just hunt a big game. I don't want to trouble you to spend money. I will take my leave."

Sui Zhao looked at Shuang Xu: "Why do you think he's a little strange?"

Shuang Xu nodded, "Indeed, there are some, but I don't know why it's strange."

"Forget it. I'll write a letter to ask my brother to allocate more funds for the case. In the future, we can also set up an unexpected loss fund. If it is not used, it will be regarded as a reward. These people are really hard-working."

As secret officials who acted in secret and had to evacuate when officials from the public came, the Mingchasi had indeed worked hard and made great contributions.
