Hearing this, Zhao Jin glanced at the Minister of Punishment in surprise, and quickly looked away.
He said to the Minister of War in a calm voice: "I have something else to do, so I won't disturb you two adults."
After saying that, without waiting for the two of them to react, they quickly walked towards the door of the Criminal Department.
The gaze of the Minister of Punishment almost burned a hole in Zhao Jin’s back!
Zhao Jin walked a few steps, then suddenly stopped and turned around, "By the way, Master Shangshu, don't let Wang Xikang receive any news from the outside world."
Only if you don't know will you become more afraid.
The more scared Wang Xikang was, the more opportunities they had to pry open his mouth.
After leaving these words, Zhao Jin quickly left the Criminal Department.
At the same time, Qi Shaoqing had just returned to his house when he heard the news and his expression changed slightly.
"Shaoqing? Why are you standing here?" Qi Jiahan's voice came from behind Qi Shaoqing. His expression froze slightly, but soon returned to normal.
Qi Jiahan looked gentle and asked again, "Why were you so stunned here just now?"
As he talked, he walked inside.
Qi Shaoqing looked calm, and the shock just now seemed to be just an illusion.
"I just heard that His Majesty the Crown Prince was imprisoned by His Majesty for the case of privately manufacturing salt. I was a little surprised."
Qi Jiahan frowned, "Don't say too much about this matter."
"I understand."
Qi Shaoqing followed Qi Jiahan towards the back room, his words and deeds were appropriate.
Qi Jiahan let him go after a few words of concern.
As soon as Qi Shaoqing returned to the house, his expression suddenly darkened.
The prince has become related to his majesty, which is too disadvantageous for them.
Moreover, I am afraid that His Majesty has now set his sights on the power in the hands of the Crown Prince.
Qi Shaoqing sat down next to the desk with a gloomy look.
No, now he is the only one who is most suitable to act secretly and help the prince to clear away the suspicion.
Once the prince falls, his future will inevitably be ruined.
Qi Shaoqing took a deep breath, forcing himself to calm down, and kept tapping the table with his knuckles, getting faster and faster.
The dead soldiers should not be able to hide it, but His Majesty must not be allowed to discover that these dead soldiers came from the East Palace.
Furthermore, there is still the flow of private salt that needs to be resolved.
With thoughts racing in his mind, Qi Shaoqing quickly thought about who could be the scapegoat for these things.
Suddenly, Qi Shaoqing thought of someone.
It can not only clear the prince's suspicion, but also never let people doubt him.
Moreover, with the prince here, he can escape afterwards...
Qi Shaoqing licked his lips, narrowed his eyes slightly, and made a decision almost instantly.
The next day, Qi Shaoqing took a break and went out early in the morning.
However, on the surface, I am going to the library.
The largest bookstore in Bianzhou is undoubtedly Moxiang Pavilion.
The books inside are very complete, ranging from the Four Books and Five Classics to various miscellaneous books, and even many ancient books.
Many scholars like to come here to study.
After Qi Shaoqing arrived at Moxiang Pavilion, he looked in front for a while and then slipped directly to the back of Moxiang Pavilion when no one was prepared.
"The deputy commander has arrived."
As soon as Qi Shaoqing arrived at the backyard of Moxiang Pavilion, someone immediately came up to him and whispered in his ear.
Qi Shaoqing nodded, skillfully bypassed several wing rooms and walked into the last one.
There was already a middle-aged man sitting there.
"Shilang Qi." The other party said, cupping his fists towards Qi Shaoqing.
If the commander of the Forbidden Army were here, he would definitely recognize that this person is Lin Yu, the deputy commander of the Forbidden Army.
"Commander Lin."
Lin Yu smiled and waved his hand, "Shilang Qi really embarrassed me. I'm just a small deputy commander."
Qi Shaoqing smiled and sat down opposite Lin Yu.
"Calling Commander Lin out for this adventure is really out of necessity."
Lin Yu is also a member of the prince, but not many people know about it.
"I understand," Lin Yu straightened his face, "Now His Highness is being detained in the palace by His Majesty. He is being watched all the time and cannot deliver the news."
"The situation in the East Palace is probably similar. None of the two close servants dare to act rashly."
Lin Yu took a deep breath, "Now outside, it all depends on Minister Qi."
"After I learned about this last night, I thought of an idea that might help His Highness get rid of this suspicion."
Lin Yu's eyes lit up and he quickly asked: "What's your idea? Please ask Shilang Qi to come and tell me quickly."
"Find a scapegoat, and this person's status must not be low."
Qi Shaoqing said two words without changing his expression, "Qi family."
Lin Yu was slightly startled, "Qi family? But Mr. Qi, you..."
"Huh," Qi Shaoqing sneered, "I'm just living under someone else's roof in the Qi family."
"They never really considered me a member of the Qi family."
After Qi Shaoqing said a few words, he didn't want to talk anymore, but said: "Your Highness's matters are more important now."
Lin Yu suppressed the turbulent thoughts in his heart and said, "Okay, if there is anything you need to tell me, Shiro Qi, just say it."
Regardless of Qi Shaoqing's character, they are all on the prince's ship now.
If you want to extract the prince, you still need to rely on Qi Shaoqing.
It's just that you must not have close friendship with this kind of people, otherwise you may be stabbed in the back one day without even knowing it.
Qi Shaoqing lowered his voice and spoke very quickly, "I will forge a token calling for death, and then hide it in Qi Jiahan's room."
"Let all the dead soldiers change their clothes into clothes with the logo on the token."
"The night after tomorrow," a ruthless look flashed in Qi Shaoqing's eyes, "I will ask the leader of the dead soldiers to sneak into Qi Jiahan's study. You must go there immediately and steal the stolen goods alone!"
"But Qi, I'm afraid Qi Jiahan won't admit it."
Qi Shaoqing laughed and said, "So what if he doesn't admit it? The stolen goods have been stolen. When the time comes, we will search for the token from it. Even if Qi Jiahan has nine mouths, he can't explain it clearly."
"As for Wang Xikang's side." Qi Shaoqing frowned, "You may need your people to sneak in."
"There is no need to do anything. Just remind him that as long as he is obedient, we can find a way to rescue his family."
Lin Yu ran through Qi Shaoqing's plan in his mind, "As long as nothing happens on Wang Xikang's side, there should be no problem."
"Did they use torture?"
Lin Yu shook his head, "No, but today Zhao Jin went to see Wang Xikang in the cell."
Qi Shaoqing remembered the reason why Xu You stumbled last time, frowned and said: "We can deal with Wang Xikang if necessary, but remember, the people sent must not be found to be related to us."
After hearing this, Lin Yu immediately remembered Xu You's case.
"I understand."
Lin Yu paused, glanced at Qi Shaoqing, and stopped talking.
"Just say what you want to say."
"Why choose the Qi family?"
Qi Shaoqing's expression paused slightly.
