Retreat, Retreat, Retreat!

"The Adam's apple?"

Dongsui subconsciously reached out and touched his smooth neck. After thinking for a while, Fang replied: "If the body becomes pure after adulthood, it should have a Adam's apple."

Xiao Changning recalled the year when he first met Shen Xuan. He should also be a 17-8 year old boy... Could it be that he is only at that age, so he has a Adam's apple?

wrong. Wasn't Shen Xuan demoted as a handyman because of a mistake at that time? But the superintendent of the priests is so important, if it is a new **** who has just entered the palace, how can it be his turn to be the supervisor of the priests!

In other words, Shen Xuan should have been in the palace for many years when she was demoted from the Superintendent of Rites to Xibi Palace.

Calculating a few years forward, he should be at least 13 or 4 years old. Will such a young boy have such obvious Adam's apple?

"His Royal Highness? Your Royal Highness?" The maid behind her gently called her, wondering, "What are you thinking about? Isn't Your Royal Highness always hating eunuchs? Why are you interested in this today?"

Xiao Changning returned to his senses and said perfunctorily: "It's nothing, just ask casually."

The doubts filled with his heart could not be relieved, Xiao Changning felt that something was not right the more he thought about it, his eyes rolled, and he said to Dong Sui: "Go and find out if Yueyao has come back?"

Dong Sui was slightly surprised, "His Royal Highness said, Beizhen Fusi's Yuefu Envoy?"

"Yes. If you can help my palace now, who else is there besides her?" Xiao Changning got up, the clinker was involved in the sore muscles, and he snorted back into the bench, humming feebly." Be cautious, don't let the Dongchang fan detect it."

Dong Sui said sternly: "The servant girl knows."

There is a heavily guarded prison palace to the west of the East Factory campus. Passing through the triple iron gate in the palace, you can see an entrance that extends to the ground. From the entrance down dozens of steps, the gloomy and humid air rushed into the face, and it was a huge underground prison in Dongchang.

The fire is extinguished, and the long and narrow prison is dark and full, and can not see the end at a glance, like the mouth of a giant beast, swallowing everything.

At this time, Shen Xuan was dressed in apricot, white and gold embroidered admiral's python robe, wearing a net scarf and official hat, and step by step steadily stepped across the floor tiles with a thin knife at her waist, and walked towards the innermost interrogation hall.

The black cloak drew an ink-like arc. He turned around and sat on the tiger-skin copper chair circling by the dragon in the hall, with his hands on the armrests of the copper chair, and he lifted toward a **** figure nailed to the cross-shaped iron frame. Lifting his jaw, he asked: "Did you open your mouth?"

Fang Wujing threw a dozen steel needles stained with viscous liquid and minced meat on the ground, took out the incense silk handkerchief and slowly wiped the blood off his hands, sneered: "Eleven bones were crushed, I didn't confess, my mouth was stiff."

Shen Xuan frowned displeasedly, and glanced at the fat **** standing still, "Blessed, how about you?"

Wu Youfu wiped the sweat from his forehead, his slightly fat body clasped his fists with difficulty, "The poison has been used for him, and he will die if he uses it again."

"Interesting, this governor hasn't seen such a hard bone for a long time." Shen Xuan's face was mostly hidden in the darkness, with a slight fire reflected in his eyes, with a cruelty that was very different from usual.

He slowly got up, walked towards the assassin nailed to the iron frame, and then suddenly shot, slender and strong palms clasped the assassin's neck, forcing him to lift up his messy, bloodstained face, and laughed cruelly: "You think you don't say anything, this superintendent can't find the leader behind you? The East Factory forces are all over the capital, and it is clear where a fly flies, let alone you are a living person."

The assassin's swollen and shattered eyes moved, as if they wanted to open them, but they were so weak that they couldn't lift their eyelids. There was a **** ho sound in his throat, and purple and black blood dripped down the corners of his mouth.

Shen Xuan let go with a cold snort, took Fang Wujing and handed over a clean veil, wiped away the stains on her hand, and then used the handle of the knife to provoke the assassin's right hand that was hanging softly because of the broken bone, and he was broken. The five fingers open.

Shen Xuan's somber gaze fell on the thick cocoon in the assassin's palm, and then she smiled clearly, "That day, you laid ambush outside the palace gate to assassinate with arrows. As far as the Governor knows, people who practice archery hard all year round, The thick cocoon should be between the tiger’s mouth on your left hand and the **** of your right hand, but your cocoon grows on the palm of your right hand. This shows that you did not practice archery since childhood. Because of the distance, second come, it should be to conceal your true identity."

The assassin was deaf and pulled his head, choking up a mouthful of blood.

"You are good at using knives, embroidering spring knives." Flying obliquely under the temple's long eyebrows, Shen Xuan's eyes were frosty, and the answer was finalized, "You are from Jin Yiwei."

Hearing this, the assassin's body trembled imperceptibly, and his weak breathing became messy.

"Such a reaction, it seems that it is really Jin Yiwei's running dog!" Fang Wujing was furious and said with a grimace, "I will kill him!"

"Hold on." Wu Youfu blocked Fang Wujing with his palm, and said with a warm smile, "Don't be anxious, listen to the instructions of the factory supervisor."

Shen Xuan thought for a moment, then turned and stepped off the torture platform and walked out of the interrogation hall.

Behind him, the iron gate slammed shut, and the rustling of the chains echoed in the empty prison.

Wu Youfu followed in Shen Xuan's footsteps and asked: "My lord, does this assassin kill or..."

Shen Xu said: "Don't kill, let him go."

"Let him go?!"

Fang Wujing raised his tone and couldn't say anything. "The subordinates took a lot of effort to catch him. It was the assassin who assassinated you and the princess. How could you just let it go?"

"No mirror, in front of the factory supervisor, don't make trouble!" Wu Youfu still smiled, but his voice fell a little deeper.

Seeing Fang Wujingxin's unwillingness, Shen Xuan chuckled, "Now that he knows that he is Huo Jie's person, the next thing will be easy."

Wu Youfu meditated, "Jin Yiwei Commander Huo Que is the concubine of the Queen Mother Liang. This is a tacit secret in the depths of the palace. The assassin sent by Huo Que must be instructed and instructed by the Queen Mother without even thinking about it."

"That's right. Empress Dowager Liang used the marriage to seek peace with Dongchang, but in fact it just paralyzed our vigilance. After less than a month, she couldn't wait to make a move." Shen Xuan's eyes flashed coldly. Said, "Find a river that is not deep and throw that assassin in. If he doesn't die, he will definitely go back and send a letter to Huo Que."

Fang Wujing was stunned, "The factory superintendent meant that he wanted to follow the line of the assassin to find the flaws in Huo Que and the Queen Mother?"

Shen Xuan looked at him coldly and sneered, "It's not too stupid."

Fang Wujing said with joy, "My lord is wise! Subordinates will do it!"

Shen Xuan walked out of the dungeon with a cold face. He stopped suddenly and looked thoughtfully to the eaves somewhere in the south.

"There is the South Pavilion of the princess." Wu Youfu squinted and smiled clearly, "Does the factory supervisor want to see her?"

"What are you talking about?" Shen Xuan withdrew her gaze and said solemnly while pressing her saber.

"Why did the factory supervisor say this?"

"She was in the car on the day Huo Wei's people came to assassinate me. The assassin couldn't have known it, but she still moved her hands."

At this point, Shen Xuan's eyes were a little complicated, and her voice was not as cold as that of others, and she slowly said, "Poor Xiao Changning is from both sides, carefully trying to survive, but she doesn't know that she has long been regarded as an abandoned son in the funeral by the Empress Dowager Liang."

"The factory supervisor is in a high position, and he is used to seeing the impermanence of life and death. This is the first time that his subordinates have heard that you will pity and cherish jade." Wu Youfu touched his chin and said courageously. , Yan and Wushuang, especially those eyes with water in it, should be very pitiful."

Shen Xuan pressed the corner of her mouth and took a cold look at Wu Youfu, "You are observant."

Wu Youfu hurriedly raised his hands and said to his weakness: "My lord is forgiving, and his subordinates are nothing more than thinking about it, just telling the truth. For a delicate beauty like the eldest princess, let alone you, it's just those of us who have seen it. I like it very much."

"People like us talk about the word'like', it's really a big joke in the world. Moreover, Xiao Chang would rather not be weak. She has been trying to test my bottom line these days, and she doesn't know what idea to play."

Shen Xuan sneered, and said indifferently, "The governor marries her for official business, not personal affair. Take care of your mouths, so you will be nonsense."

Once he solved everything, he would let Xiao Changning go. At that time, whether she was poor, life or death, she had nothing to do with him.

On Nange's side, Xiao Changning didn't know that his life had been sealed by Shen Xuan.

She slept beautifully, rubbing her sore hands and feet in the morning, and decided to go to the palace to meet the little emperor, first to maintain her sister and brother, and second, to inquire about the information in the palace.

However, the guards of the East Factory were very strict. Xiao Changning was not released by Shen Xu's souvenir, and was blocked by Fan Zi when he went out.

Xiao Changning is anxious! Shen Xuan is imprisoning her as a criminal?

In any case, she must be out of the palace today, and if lucky, she might be able to meet Yue Yao from Beizhen Fusi. As long as she got the help of the more caresser, she was one step closer to escaping from the devil's den.

Thinking of this, she bit her silver teeth, her heart shook, and lifted her legs towards Shen Xuan's bedroom.

The bedroom was lonely and empty. Xiao Changning hesitated and went up the steps, thinking: Why is there no one alone? Could it be that Shen Xuan took Fanzi out of the mission early in the morning?

But the door to the bedroom is clearly concealed.

Xiao Changning calmed his mind, stretched out a hand and pushed the door, softly tentatively said: "Shen..."

She just said a word, and she was stunned.

Looking down the narrow door, the room is dimly lit, Shenxuan's long hair is scattered, and the tall figure is wearing only a thin white obscene suit, sitting on the toilet table with her back facing the door, holding a Senhan sharp short knife. There was a light slash at the chin, making a slight rustling sound like stubble being shaved.

From Xiao Changning's angle, she happened to see Shen Xuan's eyes reflected on the blade. They were long, narrow and deep, sharp and cold.

Is he... shaving?

Does a **** need to shave? !

However, before she could take a closer look, Shen Xuan seemed to be aware of her existence and suddenly turned her head. The short knife in her hand turned into an afterimage and flew, and it was nailed straight to the door door in front of Xiao Changning.

Xiao Changning was shocked, and his legs fell backward.

The author has something to say: That night, Xiao Changning's eyes were blurred with tears, and he started writing her second suicide note after coming to Dongchang...

Changning: After marrying to Dongchang, this palace has been on the verge of being wiped out.

Shen Xuan (beating the bed): I said it earlier, and I spent the night in the same bed with the Governor, and everything was solved.
