When I got up in the morning, the guards came to report that another person had died last night. The body of Ganzhou Tongpang was hung on the city wall, and there was another confession.

Xie Tingzhou hadn't gotten up yet, so he propped his head up to listen to the report, "I remember that except Hu Xingwang, everyone else was detained."

Xi Feng said: "Yes, Hu Xingwang is not in custody because the garrison needs to be handed over, but this matter is very involved and there are many people involved. Tong Xing, who is not involved in secrets, is detained in the Yamen of the state capital. Inside the prison."

Xie Tingzhou looked confused, "This man is very good at martial arts. Although the management of the prison in the state capital is lax, it is not easy to transport a living person out."

Chang Heng, who was sitting here, couldn't help but interject, "How do you know, Your Highness, that it was transported out alive and not taken away dead? It is much more convenient to transport it out after death."

Xie Tingzhou glanced at him, "Since there is a confession, can he torture him in prison to extract a confession?"

Chang Heng showed a look of sudden realization, "But since there is a confession, it is not the same party who came to silence me."

"Be optimistic about Liang Jianfang. This person is very important. Nothing can happen to him no matter what. As long as he is kept, many people in Shengjing will have sleepless nights."

Xie Tingzhou stood up and took the cloak from Xifeng. His eyes fell on the robe with missing sleeves on the hanger.

He paused for a moment, turned his head and asked, "Where is Shigure?"

"Shigure?" Xifeng was stunned for a moment before realizing who Shigure was.

He was not a very important person, so Xi Feng didn't pay any attention to him. He just asked the secret guard to keep an eye on him, so he quickly asked someone to ask him.

After a while, the secret guard came to report: "Still in General Shen's spiritual tent."

"Never left?"

"No," the secret guard said, "Except for going into the city yesterday to follow him and coming back within two hours, he never left the spiritual tent except for going to the bathroom."

Xie Tingzhou was thoughtful, and Chang Heng asked: "Your Highness suspects him?"

Xie Tingzhou said nothing, put on his big cloak and walked out of the tent, walking straight towards Ting Ling's tent.

When the guards in front of the tent saw him coming, they prepared to salute from afar.

Xie Tingzhou waved his hand to stop him, walked to the spiritual tent, paused for a moment, opened the curtain and went in.

Shen Yu knelt in front of the coffin and turned around when she heard footsteps, "Your Highness."

There was no brazier inside the tent to keep warm, and the air was freezing, a bit colder than outside.

Xie Tingzhou took a stick of incense from Xifeng's hand, bowed to the coffin, and then looked at Shen Yu.

"Since you are keeping watch over General Shen's body, why don't you come and offer a stick of incense?"

Shen Yu raised her head and took a look. She was not a person, so it was naturally not her turn for Xie Tingzhou's guards to attend to her.

She knelt for too long and was bleeding. She supported the ground and moved her legs with some effort. A look of pain suddenly appeared on her face.

After offering incense, she knelt back.

Xie Tingzhou stared at her for a while with his eyes lowered, and stopped at the door before leaving, "Chang Heng Xicai, I think you are very good at martial arts and I want to take him under my command. The doctor spent a lot of effort to rescue you, so don't waste his kindness." ”

Shen Yu didn't look up and stared at his boots, "Thank you, Your Highness, for your concern."

After watching Xie Tingzhou leave the tent, Shen Yu sat down on the ground.

For some reason, Xie Tingzhou always gave her a sense of oppression. When his cold eyes locked on someone, she always felt that she could see through them easily.

Xi Feng followed Xie Tingzhou out and didn't speak until he was far away.

"Your Highness, it seems there is nothing suspicious about this person."

The so-called "burning incense" is just to see Shigure's reaction. All her actions are very reasonable, including the inconvenience of sitting on her knees for too long, and the look on her face when she stretches.

Xie Tingzhou raised his lips and smiled lightly, "Didn't you notice his shoes?"

"Shoes?" Xi Feng really didn't notice.

Xie Tingzhou kept walking, "The soles of his feet were stained with something that didn't belong in the camp."

At this moment, Xi Feng wanted to go back and take a closer look at what the things that didn't belong to the camp looked like.

The next day, the guards came to report that the Lu family had returned the grain and grass borrowed by Shen Zhao from Ganzhou yesterday and had returned home.

He had originally mentioned that he wanted to see Prince Beilin, but now he left quietly.

The body could not be kept for a long time. After Shen Yu stayed in front of the spirit for a few days, Xie Tingzhou arranged for a team of people to help the spirit go to Beijing.

It was Shen Zhongan's last wish to be buried at the border, but she couldn't stop it now.

The army had counted tens of thousands of deserters a few days ago. Shen Zhongan's body must be transported back to Shengjing, because the body must be seen after death, otherwise it will be questioned and criticized.

The soldiers who sacrificed their lives at the border cannot bear the infamy of deserters.

The sun was rising and it was time to get lunch again.

Chang Heng did not arrange Shen Yu's stay, so she returned to the wounded barracks and was responsible for collecting meals for the wounded barracks with several soldiers.

It is difficult to be in the army and it is rare to have a meal of meat. It is said that His Royal Highness paid for the meal today with his own money to reward the army lieutenants.

Shen Yu and You Dazui went there neither early nor late, and there were already many camps lined up to share meals.

Just as they were about to queue up, several sturdy soldiers came over, bumped her hard on the shoulder, and then squeezed them back calmly.

Just as Shen Yu was about to speak, a soldier grabbed her arm to stop her and whispered, "These are from General Chang's tent."

Shen Yu raised her eyes and saw the man in front of her turned back and gave her a look of contempt.

"What are you looking at?" The man looked Shen Yu up and down.

People from all religions and professions joined the army. There were many ruffians in the military camp, and Shen Yu had seen many of them, so she ignored him.

The man simply turned around, crossed his arms and asked, "I ask what are you looking at? Are you deaf?"

The man's friend looked at Shen Yu and said, "The one in the injured barracks must have been deafened by the war."

Everyone laughed immediately.

The man sneered and uttered a few words.

Shen Yu raised her head and said calmly: "Say it again."

The man raised his head and said arrogantly: "Boy, don't show off. If you lose, just put your tail between your legs and be a good person."

"Say it again." Shen Yu said word by word.

The man smiled, "I said you Shen Family Jun are all trash, and you want us to come all the way from Beilin to rescue you. If you're not trash, you're——"

Before he finished speaking, the man held his nose and took two steps back.

Nosebleeds were already flowing from the fingers.

Shen Yu retracted her fist and said calmly: "Watch your mouth."

The man spat blood on the ground and said, "How dare you hit me."

As he spoke, he pulled out the knife from his waist, and the scene instantly became chaotic.
