Sima fan seemed not surprised by Gu Fei's answer, and his face was still smiling.

"Tell me, what have you found?"

Gu Fei explained his experience of handling cases in the past two days from beginning to end.

After hearing this, Sima fan smiled and said, "it's worthy of Xu Yizhi. It's really cunning. He deliberately retreated to make you think you were about to catch his fox tail. As a result, he just waved a trick. Finally, he launched a scapegoat and sent you away. It's just that you can't expose him yet. Even if you are full of anger, you can only hold it."

Gu Fei said, "I'm careless this time."

"Forget it, that's all for this time. Xu Yi knows that he is not a simple person. If he wants to bring him down, he can't finish it overnight. It has to be done by Xu Xu Xu."

Gu Fei bowed his head and said, "Weichen has been taught."

He took off the token around his waist: "now that the case has been settled, this token should also be returned to his majesty. It is the incompetence of Wei Chen who is entrusted by his majesty."

Sima fan took the heavy token and said casually, "in fact, I didn't expect you to overthrow Xu Yizhi with only one Shi Ming from the beginning. You didn't screw up this time. Xu Yizhi should be honest for some time after this. You don't need to blame yourself. Just make persistent efforts. There are still many places to use you in the future."

Then he handed the token.

Gu Fei was stunned: "Your Majesty, what is this?"

"Take this token. In the future, as long as you take it, you can go in and out of the palace at any time. If you encounter any trouble, you can use it to block it."

Gu Fei took the token with both hands: "thank you, your majesty."

Sima wearily said, "you have worked hard these two days. Go back and have a good rest. The rest is left to Murong Hu."

Gu Fei reminded: "Murong Hu advised me to release Shi Ming before. He and Xu Yi know what agreement they should have reached in private. This person must be more careful."

"I know. Just go back and have a rest."

"Here."

Gu Fei said goodbye and left.

After he left, Sima Fan said to Xie Miao around him, "go to Murong's house and pass my password to Murong Hu. He will take over Shi Ming's case and knock him by the way. Don't let him forget who owns the dog."

Xie Miao replied solemnly, "here."

He took two little yellow gates and a team of bodyguards out of the palace and came to Murong's house.

Murong Hu's attitude was very enthusiastic: "manager Xie, I don't know if you're welcome. I hope you'll forgive me. Please sit inside quickly."

After Xie Miao sat down, a servant girl immediately offered tea.

Xie Miao picked up the tea bowl, gently fiddled with the floating tea with the bowl cover, took a sip of tea slowly, and then said, "I'm here at the order of the son of heaven. You must have known about Shi Ming's case. The son of heaven is going to hand over the case to you now."

Murong suddenly heard the speech and was delighted.

He has the final say if he reaches his hand and puts it aside.

Then he thought of Gu Fei. If Gu Fei knew about it, he would be angry?

Murong suddenly thought more and more proud, and his smile became more and more enthusiastic: "please help the manager to tell the emperor that Wei Chen will do his best to handle this case and never let the emperor down."

Xie Miao nodded: "this is the best."

Then he changed his words: "the evidence of Shi Ming's corruption and bribery has been submitted to the emperor, and the emperor has already known about it. Don't be bewitched and do such stupid things."

Murong was suddenly stunned and then became nervous: "did someone speak ill of me in front of the emperor? Did Gu Fei say that? "

Xie Miao smiled: "do you like dog meat?"

The topic jumped too fast. Murong suddenly didn't respond. He didn't understand what the other party meant.

Xie Miao went on to say, "the emperor hates unfaithful people most, not only people, but also dogs. If a dog doesn't remember who its owner is, keeping it can only be a waste of food. It's better to kill the pot directly. What do you think? "

If Murong Hu didn't know that the emperor was warning himself at this time, his officialdom career for so many years would be in vain.

He was startled into a cold sweat and hurriedly said, "what you said is that I have been taught."

Seeing that he had understood his meaning, Xie Miao stood up and said, "I have to go back to the palace and reply to your majesty. I'm leaving now."

Murong Hu quickly stood up and said, "I'll see you off."

After seeing Xie Miao off, Murong Hu finally didn't have to support him any more. He stretched out his hand to hold the threshold next to him, his face turned white and rolled down in a cold sweat.

There was a servant nearby who wanted to come forward to help, but he waved it away.

He originally thought that the emperor valued his own performance when he handed over Shi Ming's case to himself. Now he knows, where does the emperor value him? It is clear that he is warning him to be more calm and stop making small moves that he thinks are smart.

It seems that Shi Ming must not live and must be severely punished to show his loyalty to the son of heaven.

As for whether this will offend Xu Yizhi, Murong Hu doesn't care.

……

After Gu Fei left the palace, he felt nothing but light.

Two thousand families, one at the gate of the palace, saw him coming out and immediately led his horse to meet him.

"Lord Zhenfu, the Emperor didn't punish you, did he?"

Gu Fei said, "no, he asked me to go back and rest for a day."

Hearing that the emperor did not punish Gu Fei, but considerately asked Gu Fei to go home and rest, the two thousand families were relieved. They thought that Gu Fei was indeed in the favor of the emperor. They didn't follow the wrong person.

The three rode back to Fu Si in the north town. When the twilight drum sounded, except for a few people on duty, all the others walked home with ease.

When Gu Fei returned home, he happened to meet Wei Chen at the door.

Today, Wei Chen came back by himself in a public donkey cart. He was very excited when he saw Gu Fei.

"Brother in law, you finally came back. You didn't come back all night last night. We were all worried about you."

Gu Fei said with a smile, "I was too busy last night to come back."

"I've heard that your royal guards arrested a man named Xu Mian door to door last night. Did you catch him?"

"Got it."

Wei Chen smiled: "then your task has been completed, great!"

Gu Fei didn't explain that what they caught was just a body. He just smiled and said, "go in."

Seeing that they both came back at the same time, ah Tao quickly said, "brother Gu, you're back. Sister Wei has been waiting for you. She's afraid of any accident outside."

Gu Fei asked, "where are the tiny people?"

"She's still sleeping. I'll call her now."

Gu Fei stopped her: "no, I'll find her."

A Tao chuckled, "OK."
