Xue Shao was furious: "If you have something to come to me, why do you want to scare a child? What are you doing with the Zhang family?"

Zhou Xing just sneered and did not speak up. He did not hesitate to take the children with him. However, he thought that because he was considering Princess Taiping, he did not dare to be arrogant to Xue Chongyin, Xue Chongjian and Xue Chongxiu, so he even allowed his maid to carry Xue Chongjian.

When it was Zhang Changzong's turn, the yamen runner took his collar without hesitation and pulled the person over, pushing him hard, making Zhang Changzong stagger-

"Liu Lang!"

Zhang Changzong calmly got up, turned his face to smile at the worried Xue father and daughter: "Don't worry, adoptive father, Changzong is fine. Xiu'er, A Yin, Chongjian will depend on you!"

"Uh-huh!"

Xue Chongyin nodded violently with tears on his face, rudely wiped his face with his sleeves, and held Xue Chongxiu's hand tightly, looking at Zhang Changzong worriedly.

Zhang Changzong waved his hand and turned his head back. A cute smile appeared on his beautiful face. He grinned at the yamen runner who had just pushed him: "Your Excellency, Zhang Changzong has recorded your gift today! There is also Zhou Zuocheng. Today's gift will never be forgotten. If I don't die, I will pray sincerely every day that Zhou Zuocheng will live a hundred years of life!"

After saying that, he turned around and walked out in a straightforward manner. The yamen runner scolded him without thinking it was offended, and he still smiled.

Zhou Xing twitched his eyes and bowed to Qiu Shenji: "General Qiu, please let General Qiu go with me to the Zhang family again."

Qiu Shenji looked at Zhou Xing with a dim expression and said in a muffled voice: "Please present the order!"

"What warrant?"

Qiu Shenjidao: "Since ancient times, there must be orders for marching. If there is no order to act without orders, the crime should be executed! The empress dowager only ordered me to jointly arrest Xue, but there is no order to jointly arrest Zhang. If Zhou Zuocheng has an order for the empress dowager, I will go with me. If Zhou Zuocheng has no orders... Please forgive me for not being able to go together."

Zhou Xing's eyes flashed and he said patiently: "General Qiu, the Empress Dowager ordered us to investigate the case of Li Chong's rebellion. Xue was involved, and Zhang had close contacts with Xue. Shouldn't we investigate it?"

Qiu Shenji said stubbornly: "There must be orders for marching. If there is no order, behead them! Zhou Zuocheng, what kind of hatred or resentment do you have to kill our Jinwu Guard soldiers?"

"you!"

Zhou Xing laughed furiously and said, "You wait, it's just a mere Zhang family. The Queen Mother will bring it to me. At that time, let's see what General Qiu has to say!"

Qiu Shenji was unmoved: "As long as Zhou Zuocheng has an order, I will send troops."

"snort!"

Zhou Xing turned away. Qiu Shenji sighed silently, and strode out of the Prince Consort's Mansion with a expressionless face. While walking, he instructed the deputy general: "If you pass it down, be smarter, don't touch the things and slaves of the Prince Consort's Mansion."

"Here."

A group of people came like wolves and tigers, and the wind and smoke rolled away. Compared to the chaos and embarrassment in Xue Yi's mansion next door, everything was as usual except for the people who were taken away.

"Get in!"

Xue Shao was taken into the prison car, and a group of children were loaded into a prison car and brought into prison. Xue Shao didn't know where he was imprisoned, so the male servant and the maid were detained separately. Only Xue Chongyin, Xue Chongxiu, Xue Chongjian and Zhang Changzong were imprisoned together, and there was no slave to serve and take care of others.

Xue Chongjian was crying all the way, and his throat was hoarse at this time. Xue Chongxiu was always comforting him. Xue Chongyin's face was full of panic, and his little face was as white as paper.

Zhang Changzong first checked the place. The soil was covered with a layer of thatch. It was not flat. The corners of the wall were a little damp and there was a pungent smell of mold. When you flip through the thatch, you could see small insects running around.

"Xiu'er!"

Xue Chongjian was so tired that he finally fell asleep in his sister's arms. Zhang Changzong walked around the cell, found the driest place, and put the thatch together: "Come on, take Chongjian to sit here first."

Xue Chongxiu nodded and hugged Xue Chongjian with difficulty. Zhang Changzong immediately went over to help her hold the child, pulled her to sit down on the straw mat, and then looked at Xue Chongyin who was at a loss: "A Yin, have you thought about it?"

"ah?"

Xue Chongyin was a little confused and grabbed Zhang Changzong's hand. Zhang Changzong held his face and looked at him: "We have been arrested in prison! Chongjian is still young, Xiu'er must be separated to take care of Chongjian, we two! The two of us men must hold on, do you understand?"

Xue Chongyin was still a little panicked. Hearing this, he held Zhang Changzong's hand tightly: "What about father? What about father? What about him...will he die? What about us? Will we die?"

Zhang Changzong was silent, and Xue Chongxiu said firmly: "Brother, as long as my mother is here, we will not have any trouble! My father has his own mother to deal with it. What's important now is that we must take good care of ourselves, not cause trouble for our mother, and not let our mother worry, do you know?"

Xue Chongyin looked at Xue Chongxiu, then Zhang Changzong, and nodded vigorously: "I understand! Xiu'er, take good care of Erlang, Liulang, what do you think we should do?"

Zhang Changzong thought for a while and said, "Now, wait! Wait until my adopted mother receives the news, wait for my master and others to find a way. Don't worry, I threatened those yamen runners when I arrested people just now. I dare not treat the punishment harshly. However, there will probably be a small pain. A Yin, you have to be patient, do you know?"

"Um!"

Xue Chongyin had red eyes and focused his head. Xue Chongxiu couldn't help but say, "What about you?"

"who?"

"Where are you, Liulang! You just threatened the yamen runners like that in order to protect us, I'm afraid..."

I was afraid of something but didn't say anything, but my eyes were filled with worry. Zhang Changzong smiled at her and said, "It's okay, don't worry, I'm not afraid. Besides, I guess even if my mother-in-law and my master are in the palace and there is some inconvenience, the chief minister of the princess's mansion and my uncles will soon receive the news. Moreover, when the empress dowager picked me up the words that day, Qiu Shenjie was there, and my master's face was there. I think he was a cautious person. Without the empress dowager's explicit order, he should not dare to do anything to my Zhang family. In this Chang'an City, without Jinwu Guard, Zhou Xing could not catch anyone alone!"

As expected, no one came to pay attention to them, and there was no food or drink. Zhang Changzong and Xue Chongxiu were all fake children and could endure them. Xue Chongyin was also trying hard to restrain him. Xue Chongjian was still a child who knew nothing. She was so hungry that she cried, and she fell asleep when she was tired of crying. She continued to cry when she woke up hungry. It was useless to coax Xue Chongxiu and was exhausted, so she could only pat and gently coax her.

Zhang Changzong had a cold expression. There were not too many ways to deal with children. The simplest and most practical thing was to go hungry and there was no need to use punishment. If a child is too arrogant, he would be honest if he was hungry.

"Liulang, are you hungry?"

Xue Chongyin looked at Xue Chongjian who had just cried and fell asleep, and asked. Zhang Changzong did not answer, but turned his head and looked outside: "Someone is coming, don't talk."

Following the sound of footsteps, there was also a strong aroma. This fragrance... is the most famous quash cake in the Ahu family in Xicheng City. The quash cake of the Ahu family is very famous in Chang'an City. It has a crispy outer layer and a soft inner layer. In the past, when Xue Shao went out, he always liked to bring a few back for the children to eat.

"I didn't even sniff the squid cake. I didn't rush my index finger when I smelled it. Little prodigy, big husband, and big lady, do you want to eat it?"

Zhou Xing stood outside the prison door with a smile, holding the Ahu family's squid cake. Zhang Changzong and Xue Chongxiu did not move. Xue Chongyin stared at the pancake and swallowed, but said nothing.

Zhou Xing smiled again and said to Xue Chongyin: "Mr. Dalang, this cake was just bought by me before. It's still very hot. If you want to eat it, it will be fine for you. As long as you tell me what is the relationship between the Zhang family and your Xue family? Have the people from the Zhang family been to your uncle's house?"
