bad, i'm a fool

Chapter 264 Melting Ice
The floor belonging to Wen Shutong in Dingfa Pavilion is still very well decorated and furnished. Even though he is old, he is still full of energy. No one looks like an old man imprisoned in a sky prison.

Shengjia's visit to Dingfa Pavilion Sky Prison in person is naturally no small matter.

Along the way, the cadres of the judicial department opened the way, accompanied by the rest department of the military department. They were not allowed to approach for fifty steps, and no chariots and horses were allowed for a hundred steps.

The store was closed, and officers and soldiers were stationed until the front of Dingfa Pavilion.

"See Your Highness."

It was Jiang Ningyun who was waiting here, not a cadre of the law department, but Jiang Ningyun himself.

Han Dongwen was taken aback for a moment, and opened the curtain of the car to let the officers and soldiers next to him protect him from the ground: "Excuse me, excuse me."

Except for Li Zai, the guards of the Xiu Department handed over to the officials of the judicial department on the spot, and the group walked into the Dingfa Pavilion amidst the lights.

Jiang Ningyun walked very close, Han Dongwen glanced left and right, and then moved closer:
"Jiang Ningyun, do you know about the death of your lieutenant of Sidubu?"

The fire light moved forward, drawing bright orange edges on Jiang Ningyun's side face, and the hair tied at the back of her head swayed slightly from side to side with her steps. She looked ahead and replied without emotion in her tone: "Wu Yue It is not a pity that I am not good at my cultivation skills. But the judiciary is not good at employing people, so please ask your highness to come down."

Their pace was not slow at all, and they walked towards the Dingfa attic step by step.

Then there is a huge spiral staircase extending underground, like a tall tower inserted into the ground upside down.

"Whether the crime will be punished or not will be discussed again. In this way, the military commander has asked for more troops and is going to send another lieutenant."

While talking, Han Dongwen carefully observed Jiang Ningyun's reaction, but found that she still looked like she had known a long time ago, and did not make any other movements.

"If that's the case, Fa Si Gongsun will spare no effort to help and send more troops."

Hearing what she said, Han Dongwen thought for a while, and his tone became more business-like: "Yes, the widow is ready to play, and we have dispatched Liu Cheng, the head of the Ministry of Finance and Economics, to the border for reinforcements."

Before the words fell, Jiang Ningyun's movements paused slightly, she turned her head to look at Han Dongwen, and hesitated in a rare tone: "Liu Cheng of the National Finance Division?"

"good."

Han Dongwen also stopped playing riddles, and spread his hands together: "You must be unhappy that the National Military Division has sent someone out. Not only is Tantai unhappy when you are sent out, but I also don't think that three full lieutenants of the Division suddenly are not at their original posts."

Wu Yue, who died in battle, and Gongsun Changzheng, who was already present, were the two of them.

If one more person is sent to Bailan Mountain, then only five of the eight lieutenants of the Judiciary will be available. The next three people are available, which is really not flexible.

"Please don't blame Chief Sim, I can only blame Master Wu Yue for being reckless and wanting to compete for this merit."

Han Dongwen took a step forward, not avoiding Jiang Ningyun's eyes: "But the concubine Yin is about to be established, it's better for the Justice not to make any more mistakes."

Jiang Ningyun stared at Han Dongwen with almond-shaped eyes, his pupils were about to get angry, but he finally suppressed it and said, "If that's the case, then the captain of the Ministry of Finance of the Dispatch State also needs Master Wenshu to nod, so... ..."

She paused for a moment, a trace of worry flashed between her brows:
"In this way, I'm afraid there are too many things that Guojinsi has to decide at the moment?"

Han Dongwen nodded wordlessly.

Send Liu Cheng, unfreeze Tilda, and negotiate to retain foreign envoys and business groups.

He had a feeling in the dark, as if Manjusri of the National Jinsi was released, and he opened his teeth and claws, grasping the most important things at once.

Han Dongwen didn't like this kind of feeling very much. Since Anhai Jinshi, he has repeatedly tossed and turned between the military department and the legal department, and temporarily bought himself a little breathing space, but was choked by the neck the moment Wen Shutong was released. .

He didn't want to be strangled anymore, so Manjusri naturally had to guard against him.

How to prevent?
Tilda was sealed, and everyone was helpless.

Sending Liu Cheng was also a helpless move.

"Only the business group is left..."

Han Dongwen pondered secretly in his heart, and suddenly Jiang Ningyun in front of him stopped.

"Criminal Man Shutong, see Your Highness!"

An old but energetic voice came from the depths of this floor, and the elegant bamboo decoration around it made it impossible to tell that this place was a prison.

Wen Shutong was half-kneeling in the middle of this bamboo room. He was already innocent in name at this moment, without any shackles, and he would be able to act in a fair and fair manner only after he successfully "thawed" Tilda here. Walk out of the court of law.

And the extremely familiar solid ice that sealed Tilda was placed behind him, slowly exuding a sinking white frost mist.

"Exemption."

Han Dongwen and Jiang Ningyun switched positions inadvertently, and she followed His Highness, looking back and forth between Wen Shutong and the huge ice cube.

"How's the progress?"

Han Dongwen walked forward without slowing down, and looked up at the huge piece of solid ice.

Cool and calm.

Tilda's body lay peacefully in the cold as if she was deeply asleep. The ice surface reflected the surrounding candlelight, shining like stars on the crystal-like mirror.

If the Tilda inside is not so important, it would be a pity to dissolve this work of art.

Of course, Han Dongwen naturally didn't forget the Yunpo sword that was also close at hand but unobtainable, and its importance at the moment was not inferior to Tilda.

If it weren't for the human puppet with the Yunpo sword, he would have no way to come to the scene again right now.

Not close to the battlefield means that there is no way to participate.

If there is no way to participate, naturally there is no way to improve. It takes hard work to make iron. Han Dongwen really needs a way to strengthen himself faster.

"His Royal Highness, the seal set by the Grand Duke of West Asia is not an ordinary witchcraft in West Asia. The veteran can only use his strength to break it, relying on spiritual power to drip water back and forth to penetrate the petrified ice."

While Manjushri was talking, a row of faint halos lit up around the solid ice, like a planet revolving around a star, reciprocating around the huge ice block.

"It's too slow."

Han Dongwen turned around with a serious expression, looked at Jiang Ningyun, then at Li Zai who had been guarding the corner not far away, and sighed slightly:

"Wen Shutong, what's the problem with the reinforcement of Bailan Mountain by Liu Cheng, the subordinate captain of your department?"

Hearing His Highness's question, Wen Shutong showed a flat smile on his face: "Thank you for your kindness, Your Highness, for giving the National Finance Division such a rare opportunity to serve the country. Liu Chengding will not disgrace his life, and will definitely avenge his colleagues in the Legal Division."

"good very good."

Han Dongwen laughed, as if he was very satisfied with Manjusri's answer, raised his hand and gently pressed it on the ice cube, feeling the cold that seemed to burn his palm: "It can not only wake up the Grand Duke, but also calm the border chaos. There is Guojinsi!"

Just as Wen Shutong was about to bow his hands and say a humble resignation, Han Dongwen suddenly turned around: "The widow received the Taishu Pavilion today, saying that some foreign envoys and business groups are clamoring that Simeng will be in chaos and want to withdraw?"

There was a sudden silence in the bamboo room.

Jiang Ningyun's eyes suddenly became sharp, and he glanced at Wen Shutong's back.

"Don't worry, Your Highness."

Manjusri paused for a moment, the smile on his face melted, and he raised his eyebrows slightly: "If His Highness agrees, the IFCS will also do its best to mediate and retain the business group. After all, if the IFCS can stabilize the border, the business group will There is no longer any need to avoid disaster."

"yes……"

Han Dongwen shook his hand, but the water droplets condensed on it could not be completely dried.

He looked at Wen Shutong, and walked forward with a smile: "If you want to keep them, I think the National Finance Corporation will benefit them a lot, but I'm afraid it will be a waste of money and people."

"His Royal Highness has learned that Taka will be in chaos at present. If the merchant group withdraws from Simeng now, it may be extremely detrimental to diplomatic relations, and it will show that His Royal Highness is weak and unable to make peace."

Manjusri lowered his head slightly, with a gesture of admonishment from a loyal minister: "This is indeed a necessary policy, and I hope His Highness will approve it."

"Necessary measures..."

Han Dongwen raised his head and heaved a sigh of relief, looking at Tilda in a daze.

After a long time, he spoke word by word:
"Let them go and break into West Asia, Simeng naturally has no Zhan Luan, if they can't break into West Asia—"

He turned around and laughed wildly: "How could it be impossible to break into West Asia! How can a dignified national gold department captain disappoint the widow like that defeated general Wu Yue?"

"Let them stay for a favor? Bah! Let them go, you can't keep them, you can't be so cowardly, and embarrass Simeng in front of these outsiders!"

His gaze swept towards Wen Shutong like a sword, and for the first time, this old minister showed a hint of surprise on his face that was usually calm in the ancient well.

"As soon as the foreign envoy's official letter arrives, open the port for them immediately, and Simeng will not have a single soldier to protect each other. Do you hear me clearly?"

Han Dongwen waved his hand, seeing that Manjushri came back to his senses, and hurriedly bowed his head and said, "Your Highness, if Si Meng is not escorted out of Hong Kong, it is not proper..."

"What kind of gift!"

Han Dongwen spread his hands: "Didn't they say that Simeng was in chaos because of the war? It's all in chaos. Where can I find the spare energy to send them?"

Manjusri was stunned at the same time, and suddenly lost his voice in front of this random decision-making without foresight.

Jiang Ning Yunxiu, who was behind him, frowned slightly, and looked at Han Dongwen with complicated eyes. In addition to doubts, there was also a hint of subtle guard in his eyes.
