Chapter 962 Pretending to be a confidant
"Isn't that right? The common people are also clapping their hands and applauding!" The Yamen servant said with a smile: "They all said that they can finally live a stable life now, and they all want to go and kowtow to Prince Chu immediately!" Zhao Si heard this and felt in his heart. Feeling.

He thought to himself: "Your Majesty's action has saved thousands of people! This merit is immeasurable, and it will definitely go down in history in the future!" Thinking of this, he couldn't help but feel extremely proud that he could follow such a wise king.

While Zhao Si was immersed in joy, the county magistrate hurried in.

"Master Zhao, there is a person outside who claims to be a popular person around Prince Chu. He said that he came to inspect the use of pesticides on the prince's order. I wonder if he is serious?" the county magistrate said with a suspicious face.

"Oh?" Zhao Si was stunned when he heard this, then frowned, and after thinking for a moment, he said: "Could it be Li Xing? Didn't he stay in the palace to help the prince refine the medicine? Why did he suddenly come here?" Thinking that Li Xing has always been steady, He shouldn't come rashly, and a trace of doubt arose in Zhao Si's heart.

"Does this person have the prince's warrant?" he asked in a deep voice.

"My subordinates have asked, but the man did not show the token." The county magistrate shook his head and said with some hesitation: "My subordinates would venture to guess whether some people are pretending to be people around the prince and want to find out about pesticides. ?" Zhao Si frowned even more.

He nodded slowly and said: "Your guess is reasonable. Nowadays, there is a lot of commotion about pesticides. There is no guarantee that someone with ulterior motives will not come to spy..."

Zhao Si pondered for a moment, glanced sharply, and whispered: "Secure that person first, and I will go see him in person. If he is really a fake, don't blame me for being rude!" "No!" The county magistrate accepted the order. , turned around and left quickly.

Zhao Si tightened his grip on the sword at his waist, his eyes flashing with cold light.

He thought to himself: "The prince has finally developed pesticides. How can he allow others to covet such a credit? He really doesn't know how to live or die!" Thinking of this, he strode out of the Yamen to see who the celebrity next to the prince was. How sacred.

Zhao Si quickly arrived outside the yamen, and saw a man in rich clothes sitting on a sedan chair, followed by more than a dozen servants, looking very arrogant.

"Humph, are you the guy who claims to be the celebrity around the prince?" Zhao Si took a step forward, looked at the man coldly, and asked in a bad tone.

Hearing this, the man was stunned for a moment, then frowned and said, "Who are you? How dare you be so rude to me?"

Zhao Si snorted coldly and looked up and down at the man who called himself Qi Da, his eyes full of disdain.

"If you are really a celebrity around the prince, how can I, Zhao Si, not know about it?" He said coldly: "I have followed the prince for many years and I have never heard him mention your name." Qi Da's face changed slightly when he heard this. But he soon regained his composure.

He raised his chin arrogantly and said: "The prince has so many talented people, how can you, a small bodyguard, know them all? I am a confidential member of the prince's side, and my position is far above you. How dare you question it like this?" To me?”

"Hmph, there is no basis for what you say!" Zhao Si sneered, his eyes like daggers, staring straight at Qi Da: "If you are really sent by the prince, you must have a warrant from the prince. Take it out and let me see!"

Qi Da's face stiffened and he hesitated: "I, I came out in a hurry this time, and I forgot to bring the warrant..." "Forgot to bring it?"

Zhao Si sneered and said with a cold light in his eyes: "Don't think that I don't know. The prince has always attached great importance to military orders and never lets his subordinates go out without carrying their tokens. Your reason is too far-fetched!"

There were beads of sweat on Qi Da's forehead, and he forced himself to calm down and said: "What do you mean? You are the celebrity next to my majestic prince, how dare you question my identity? Believe it or not, I will go back and tell the prince and let him cut it." "I think you are trying to scare me!" Zhao Si sneered and said without fear: "If you are really someone close to the prince, there is no need to threaten me. I think you are just a person." Isn't it a fake person with ulterior motives who wants to spy on our military situation? "

When Qi Da heard this, he suddenly panicked and there were more and more beads of sweat on his forehead.

He pretended to be angry and shouted loudly: "You, what are you talking about? I am here to supervise pesticides upright, and you dare to frame me! Just wait, I will report it to the prince and see how he deals with you, who is so bold Something!" After that, he turned and left.

"Stop!" Zhao Si shouted, and in a flash, he was already standing in front of Qi Da.

He grabbed Qida by the collar and stared into his eyes fiercely.

"You despicable villain, do you really think that I, Zhao Si, are scared?" Zhao Si said solemnly: "You dare to show off in front of me, and you still want to escape unscathed? What a dream!" Qida was so frightened by Zhao Si that his legs kicked out. So soft that he almost collapsed to the ground.

"S-Sir, please forgive me! I, I really came here on the orders of the prince, and I didn't have any bad intentions!" He begged for mercy in a trembling voice.

"Hmph, you are being tough, aren't you?" Zhao Si shouted coldly, turned around and shouted to the soldiers behind him: "Come here, take down this impostor and interrogate him severely to see if he still dares to be tough!"

"No!" Several soldiers responded and pushed Qida to the ground with all their hands and feet, and tied him tightly.

"No! Let me go! You are insulting the prince's representative!" Qida howled in horror, his voice hoarse.

"The representative of the prince? Bah!" Zhao Si kicked Qi Da in the stomach and sneered: "If you are the prince's confidant, then who am I, Zhao Si? Do you know the relationship between me and the prince?! If you don't tell me honestly, Who are you and what are your intentions?" Qi Da's face turned pale in pain and he was speechless.

Seeing that he didn't say anything, Zhao Si kicked him up again and shouted angrily: "Speak! Who sent you? Do you want to find out the formula of pesticides?"

"I, I was really sent by the prince, and I had no other intentions!" Qi Da defended in a trembling voice, sweating from the pain.

"Fart!" Zhao Si was so angry that he drew out the sword from his waist and pressed it hard against Qida's neck.

"I'll ask you one last time. If you don't tell me the truth again, don't blame me, Zhao Si, for being cruel!"

Qi Da was so frightened that he shook his head and begged: "Sir, spare your life! I'll do it now, I'll do it!" "Then say it quickly!" Zhao Si put more force on his hand, and the blade of the blade had already sunk into Qi's body. Da's flesh.

"Xiao, Xiao is a member of the Zhang family. On the order of the master, he pretended to be a celebrity around the prince and came to spy on the news about pesticides." Qi Da confessed in a trembling voice: "You have no choice but to open the Internet. For one thing, spare this little dog’s life!”
