Chapter 280 I Want To Live
Shen Liuzhen was sitting on the mat, watching his expression from the corner of his face all the time, waiting for him to speak.

Prince Chongsu glanced at him, and said angrily, "Eat, are you afraid that I will poison the food?"

"No, no, no... I don't mean that." Shen Liuzhen quickly said, picked up the chopsticks to pick up the food, then raised his sleeve to cover his mouth, took two bites gracefully, and rolled his eyes again.

His pair of eyes are always bright, gleaming like water, but now illuminated by candlelight, they are even more cunning and intelligent.

He still carefully looked at the expression of Lord Chongsu, swallowed what was in his mouth, and said:
"My lord is a man, and I can see clearly, so I don't think my lord will harm me. It's just that my lord doesn't like to interact with people. I know myself well, so I can't treat my lord like this. Therefore, I can't help but feel uneasy."

Lord Chongsu put a piece of meat into his mouth and chewed it, wiped his hands with a cloth towel, pressed it on the table in front of him, looked at him and said:
"You are a talent. The reason why you were able to catch those rebellious officials and thieves a while ago is due to you. Speaking of which, I just became a superficial singer based on my status. In fact, you are the one who does things in the mainland. .I know this very well.”

Shen Liuzhen frowned slightly, feeling even more confused in his heart.

Lord Chongsu is not a person who cares about fame. If he cared, he wouldn't have stayed behind closed doors for so many years.

Why is it that listening to this now, it seems like a commoner feels that the junior has taken his credit?

"Don't dare... I'm just running errands. Thanks to the lord's impartiality and impartiality, this case can go so smoothly. Otherwise, no matter what I do, it will end up in the sea, and it will be of no use at all."

This is true, if the presiding judge was the old Ting Wei from the past, he would probably be fooled by favoritism, and he might have to suffer a lot himself.

Lord Chongsu ignored his words, looked at the dishes in front of him, and continued:

"You are a rare talent. You help His Majesty with your work and do your best. However, during the trial of the case, I found that you are not as loyal as you appear to be."

Shen Liuzhen frowned, and that cute smile immediately appeared on his face, with two dimples evident, and asked:
"My lord, why did you say such a thing?"

Prince Chongsu pressed the corner of the table with one hand, leaned forward slightly, stared at him with those sharp eyes like a falcon, and asked straightforwardly:

"You used to be very close to Zong Ai?"

Shen Liuzhen's eyes flickered, and he said: "When I followed Taiwu Emperor to Beijing, I was taken care of by Zong Ai on the way, so I kept sending him some food and pastries. I can't stand him doing those utterly unconscionable things. , In order to help His Majesty take revenge today, he continued to approach him, pretending to be a snake. His Majesty knows the ins and outs of this, and it is precisely because of this that His Majesty trusts me so much."

"Hmm..." Prince Chongsu stared at Shen Liuzhen's expression, pondered for a while, and asked again:
"The same is true of what I've heard, so you are very good at acting and deceiving? Can you make people like Zong Ai undetectable?"

Shen Liuzhen's heart skipped a beat. Hearing this, he had already faintly guessed what was going on...

So he said with a serious face: "People like Emperor Taiwu can be murdered by Zong Ai, not because Zong Ai's methods are so clever, but because Emperor Taiwu despised him and never took him as a variable seriously." inside.

In the same way, Xiaguan was just a child with no official and no power in front of Zong Ai, and he had to rely on him to take care of him.It's not because of how clever my subordinates are, or because I'm good at acting and deceitful.It just so happened that Zong Ai never took this servant seriously. "

After hearing his words, Lord Chongsu's sharp eyes softened a little, as if he was persuaded.

He watched Shen Liuzhen remain silent for a while, as if he was thinking about something, he picked up the wine glass in front of him and took another sip.

Shen Liuzhen lowered his eyelids, and pretending to be calm, he picked up the chopsticks and took a bite of the food, but his movements were very slow, and he seemed preoccupied.

Prince Chongsu looked at Shen Liuzhen with a wine glass in his hand and suddenly asked:
"Then your fiancée, the girl from the Xie family you brought into the barracks, is the matter of Lieutenant Song Guo, how do you explain it?"

Upon hearing this, Shen Liuzhen looked at Prince Chongsu in shock.

How would he know?How would he know? ! ! !Could it be that A Yuan has surrendered himself to the emperor of Song, and now everyone knows it? !

"She..." Shen Liuzhen almost blurted out, wanting to ask how she was, but it was a trace of reason in his mind at the last moment that pulled him back.

Because he was too panicked, he bit his tongue hard.

He licked it painfully, and the taste of rust instantly filled his mouth.

Shen Liuzhen put down the chopsticks in his hand, and moved his body at a loss, so that he was facing Prince Chongsu, and continued the previous words:
"Her? Captain Song? My lord... How is this possible?! When did the State of Song hire a woman as a captain? The lord doesn't seem like a joking person, why did he start a joke?"

Seeing Shen Liuzhen's reaction, Lord Chongsu was suddenly confused. He was sure that Shen Liuzhen was a spy who colluded with Song State and helped Song State steal the military plan, which led to the failure on the battlefield.

Just because his maidservant is the Colonel of the Song Dynasty is enough to kill him.

But looking at it now, his shocked expression doesn't look like acting.If he played it, the acting is too similar, too real.

But what Lord Chongsu didn't know was that Shen Liuzhen's shock was not because he was shocked by Xie Yuan's identity as Captain Song Guo, but because he knew Xie Yuan's identity.

Lord Chongsu leaned back and looked at Shen Liuzhen, the light in his eyes was deep and deep, like an undercurrent surging under the candlelight.

Suddenly, he pulled out the saber from the back of the table, flew up with a "shua", jumped over the table like an eagle spreading its wings, and landed in front of Shen Liuzhen. On Shen Liuzhen's neck.

Shen Liuzhen was terrified, he only had time to sit back, and the cold and sharp blade was already attached to his skin.

In an instant, goosebumps jumped up all over my body, and my heart felt cold.

Damn... People who practice martial arts are all monsters, and Lord Chongsu is still so fast at his age!
Shen Liuzhen's mind was in a mess, shouting that it's over, it's over, it's over, it's over, it's over, it's over, it's over, it's over, it's over, it's over, it's over, it's over, it's over, it's over, it's over, it's over, it's over, it's over, it's over, it's over, it's over, it's over, it's over, it's over, it's over, it's over, it's over, it's over, it's over, it's over, it's over, it's over, it's over, it's over, it's over, it's over, it's over, it's over, it's over, it's over, it's over," Shen Liuzhen's mind was in a mess.

Prince Chongsu narrowed his eagle-like sharp eyes slightly, staring at Shen Liuzhen and said:
"How dare you argue when you're about to die? To tell you the truth, I invite you here today, and the food and drink prepared will be your meal. If you admit it honestly, my knife can still be sharper, and I will leave your whole body!"

Shen Liuzhen's body was stiff, his arms rested on the ground, his eyes looked at Lord Chongsu in horror, and he shouted in his heart:

I don't want a whole body! ...I want to live!

　Well, Shen Liuzhen died here, and A Yuan was also killed by the emperor, so the whole drama can end...
