After seeing Tang Dai being taken to prison, Zhao Feng finally realized what was wrong.
Based on Zhang Ji's personality, he generally wouldn't confront officials, especially those of higher rank or those from the Censorate.
Now that he's openly confronting Lord Tang of the Tang Dynasty, it seems someone has instructed him to specifically target Lord Tang, and that person's official rank is considerably higher than his.
The man in black must have prepared that token from the beginning.
"Zhao Feng, did you hear me when I spoke to you?"
Zhao Feng, who was lost in his own thoughts, was brought back to his senses by Zhang Ji's words.
"What? What did you just say, sir? I was just thinking about my wife."
"You! I say, you should pretend you knew nothing about today's case."
Zhao Feng paused for a moment after hearing this, but quickly understood. "Yes, I understand."
"Um"
"Farewell, Your Excellency"
Seeing that Zhao Feng understood his meaning, Zhang Ji left, and Zhao Feng also left the Dali Temple.

"master"
"Have you dealt with those people?"
"He has already been beheaded and his head displayed to the public."
After finishing speaking, Zou Heng hurriedly added, "Master, Lord Tang has been imprisoned in the Dali Temple jail."
Qin Jue placed the memorial he had just received on the table. "What happened?"
"Just now, when I was leaving the Dali Temple and on my way back to the palace, Lord Zhao caught up with me on horseback."
Zou Heng's recollections:
"Commander Zou, Commander Zou, etc."
On the street leading back to the palace, Zhao Feng caught up with Zou Heng on horseback, then dismounted.
"Is there anything I can help you with, Lord Zhao?"
"Commander Zou, would you like to speak to me privately?"
"good"
Zou Heng and Zhao Feng went into the restaurant next door and asked for a private room.
"I wonder why Lord Zhao has stopped me?"
"Commander Zou, I won't beat around the bush anymore, I'll just get straight to the point."
"After the execution, someone came to the Dali Temple to accuse Lord Tang, saying that he sent people to burn down Lord Liu's shop in the south of the city, which caused many music venues in the south of the city to catch fire and suffer casualties."
"Whether there were witnesses or not, Lord Zhang asked if it was Lord Tang who did it. Lord Tang denied it, so he was directly imprisoned in the Dali Temple."
"Lord Zhang Ji said he would report this to His Majesty at tomorrow's morning court session."
"The key issue is that I suspect there might be something fishy about that witness."
Zou Heng understood Zhao Feng's meaning immediately after hearing his words: "I understand what Lord Zhao means."
"Since it is inconvenient for Lord Zhao to go to the palace to explain to His Majesty, I will inform His Majesty of his name after I return to the palace later."
"Many thanks to Commander Zou for this."
Zhao Feng performed a courtesy to Zou Heng, and Zou Heng returned the gesture in return.
"You're too kind, Lord Zhao. I'll be taking my leave now."
"good"
Zou Heng then left the private room.
Zou Heng's recollection ends
"Your Majesty, that's how things are."
After Zou Heng finished speaking, he saw Qin Jue tapping the table with the test strip.
"Let's see what Zhang Ji says in court tomorrow. Go and bring the little princess back."
"Yes, I'll take my leave."

Little Xi'er rode on Sha Ting's back. They walked outside a courtyard wall, where petals occasionally drifted down from within.
Upon reaching the door, Xiao Xi'er climbed off Sha Ting's back, pressed her face against the door, and peeked inside through the crack.
Seeing pink petals scattered on the ground, Xiao Xi looked for a long time, but still couldn't see anyone on the other side of the door.
"Wow! This place is so beautiful, is no one living here?"
Xia Ju didn't need to look up at the archway sign to know where she was.
"Princess, this is the Hibiscus Palace, and these flowers are 'reclaimed flowers'."
"AoAo"
"Since no one's here, I'll go in and take a look, hehehe~"
As she spoke, Xiao Xi'er raised her little hands, trying to push the door open, but unfortunately, she couldn't budge it.
It took Chunhe and Sanshu, one pushing and the other pushing, to finally open the door.
After the door opened, Xiao Xi'er was the first to run in, followed closely by Sha Ting.
Wow, this place is so beautiful!
"It's even prettier than the one I saw from outside!!"
Xiao Xi'er ran to a crabapple tree and lay down. When Sha Ting saw Xiao Xi'er lie down, he followed suit.
Lu Yuan secretly used his light-footed skill to leave.
A little while later, someone entered Futang Palace. Zhang Shuhao, carrying a painting box, saw the following as he entered:
Amidst a field of pink crabapple blossoms lay a little girl dressed in 'Cloud Gate' colors and a white tiger.
The blue and white stood out vividly against the pink sea, dazzling and eye-catching. Zhang Shuhao found the best spot and began to paint.
dark place
"You just went to see Zhang Shubo?"
"Yes, what's wrong?"
"You women are such a hassle."
"Sigh, Baizhong, if you keep talking like that, you'll never find a wife."
"A fierce woman like you is better off without."
"Bai Zhong, no wonder no one likes you yet!!!"
Lu Yuan angrily moved a little further away from Bai Zhong.
Seeing Lu Yuan's actions, I felt a little regretful.
Lying in the sea of crabapple blossoms, Xiao Xi'er sat up and began picking up the petals from the ground and scattering them upwards.
After the petals fell again, they landed on Shatin and Xiaoxi'er's head.
Xiao Xi'er wasn't satisfied with playing by herself, so she dragged San Shu and Xia Ju along to play together.
Each person grabbed a handful of flower petals from the ground and threw them at the other.
Soon, the three of them were covered in flower petals.
San Shu said aggrievedly, "Princess, it's not fair that you and Xia Ju both left me alone."
"Hehehe~"
"Thirdly, you're still a man."
And so, the three of them continued.
