Chapter 600 Father
Mr. Heng Yuan stretched his hand into the prison, and Han Chong barely raised his left hand.

The two held hands briefly in the air, and then let go.

Mr. Hengyuan stood up slowly holding the fence, dragging the heavy iron chains on his feet and continued to walk forward. Han Chong watched him leave until the sound of the iron chains dragging on the ground could no longer be heard. Only then closed his eyes again.

……

It was noon outside.

The summer sun shone down, Mr. Heng Yuan hadn't adapted to the light here for a long time.

Someone took him by the arm and led him slowly into a carriage.After a short rest, he gently opened the curtain in the car - this was heading towards the Qinyuan Mansion.

The carriage bumped all the way, and when it stopped again, it stopped at the main entrance of Qinyuan, as Mr. Heng Yuan had expected.

There has been another wave of official guards here, and the faces of these gatekeepers are always changing. Mr. Hengyuan climbed up the stairs, and walked slowly towards the gate of Qinyuan in the encirclement.

In the past, it was easy to step over the threshold, but today it is difficult to drag the heavy chains.

In the first courtyard after entering the gate, there are many things piled up in a mess, including open wooden boxes, scattered books, cloth clothes he changed, and the dilapidated chessboard that he only uses as a private collection now... Mr. Hengyuan He glanced at the scene expressionlessly, and then his eyes fell on a person in a red official uniform not far away.

It was Sun Beiji who came in person. At this moment, the old man was standing not far from the gate with his back to Mr. Hengyuan. He folded his hands behind his back. He turned around when he heard the transmission.

Under the scorching sun, Mr. Heng Yuan didn't stand for long before his breathing became heavy.

"Go to the shade and talk." Sun Beiji said softly.

Mr. Heng Yuan smiled, "Thank you Mr. Ge...for your understanding."

A group of Jinyiwei has been closely following Mr. Hengyuan and Sun Beiji, ready to defend against potential threats at any time.

A servant brought two cups of tea at this time, but Sun Beiji didn't move, neither did Mr. Heng Yuan.

The eyes of both of them turned to the officials not far away who were continuing to move things into the yard.

"I don't know what elder Ge is looking for here?" Mr. Heng Yuan said softly.

"Mr. Hengyuan, why bother to pretend to be a fool with the old man here." Sun Beiji said softly, "The emperor trusted you a lot before, and saved you from the pain of being grounded. He sent you many imperial documents."

"I read it according to my will, and I didn't force it." Mr. Hengyuan replied, "And after reading it, I always send it back in its original form, and will not keep a copy."

"Whether you stayed here or not, we will find out later." Sun Beiji's voice was flat, "I brought you back here today because I have something to ask you."

"Excuse me, sir."

"At present, the evidence is solid. The banditry in Fuzhou and Daye is inextricably linked to Jian'ange, but you insist that you know nothing about it." Sun Beiji looked at Mr. Hengyuan. Can such a confession save your own life?"

Mr. Heng Yuan sighed, "It's time to explain. I have already explained to the emperor four years ago. In the past four years, I have been almost isolated from the world. The so-called birds are exhausted, and the bow is hidden. If the emperor wants to kill me now, what is the reason? I can't."

Sun Beiji smiled lightly, "Even if you are in the inner court, you can still play chess with outsiders... Does this count as isolation?"

Mr. Hengyuan frowned slightly, "Mr. Sun Ge overheard my conversation with Bai Siyao last night."

"Mr. Hengyuan," Sun Beiji's face still looked sour, "This old man has been frank and honest. If you continue to pretend, then today's conversation will come to an end."

Mr. Heng Yuan smiled helplessly.

"You just need to answer one question for me." Sun Beiji's eyes were piercing. "Where is the child who was sent out of the palace that year?"

Faced with this sudden topic, Mr. Heng Yuan showed some surprise on his face, and then quickly calmed down.

"Ge is always sure... I will definitely know." Heng Yuan asked.

"Of course you will know." Sun Beiji replied in a deep voice, "Outside, everyone thinks that you took over Jian'an Pavilion only in Jianxi's 35th year, but in the last four or five years when Prince Qinyuan was still alive, his situation I am very clear about how. It is impossible for such a weak patient to have any energy to govern such a huge organization as Jian Ange.

"From then on, you should be the one who took over An Ge." Sun Beiji said softly, "Will the child they risked their lives to protect back then be completely ignored when they come to you?"

"These are two completely different things, Mr. Ge." Mr. Hengyuan looked at the yard in the distance, "Did you forget that when that child was sent out of the palace, I was just a little baby. In this world Even after I learned the truth, I wanted to find out the whereabouts of that person, but searching for a stranger who had been hiding in the sea of ​​people more than 30 years ago was not easy.

"Then, I can't save you." Sun Beiji stood up slowly, "According to the emperor's will, if you are passive and lazy in this matter, then you and your subordinates don't have to save their lives. "

At first he thought that Mr. Heng Yuan was about to change his words, but unexpectedly, he slowly closed his eyes and let out a soft sigh.

"That's fine." He said softly, "Then I promised my father before he died, and I finally did it."

……

In Jingzhao Yin Yamen, Zheng Mi is playing hide and seek with his youngest daughter in the yard behind the Yamen.

He was so overwhelmed by official duties before that he was so tired during the day that he couldn't sleep at night. In the past few days, the cabinet has ordered him to face the wall and think about his mistakes, and hand over all the work for the time being. On the contrary, Zheng Mi really started comfortably. took a break.

He leaned his head against the big tree in the yard and shouted loudly, "Have you hidden it?"

From the direction of the southeast corner, there was a childish "Okay!"

Zheng Mi raised his head, looked towards the southeast, and saw a skirt corner exposed behind the rockery at a glance. The little girl seemed to have also noticed that the skirt corner was exposed, and she twitched lightly behind the rockery, and the corner of the dress disappeared again. .

"Then dad is here to find him!"

Zheng Mi didn't go to the southeast, instead he took a few steps to the west, pretending to walk around.

The little girl behind the rockery looked at this side from behind the cracks in the rocks, her eyes were divided into two slits, and she could barely make a sound.

"Is it hiding behind this big water tank?" Zheng Mi brushed away the lush green grass in the corner exaggeratedly, "No...haha, I saw you already! Are you hiding behind the brick wall here?"

Zheng Mi ran behind the wall in shock, but just as he turned the corner, when he was about to shout "Why aren't you here again", the smile on his face suddenly froze there——

On the corridor outside the courtyard, there was a palace official walking towards the backyard with a serious face.
