Chapter 60
Luo Ying and Lingyu carefully supported them all the way, and as soon as they stepped into the door with their front feet, they heard the sound of a fast horse whipping from outside the road. She inadvertently turned her head to look, but saw that outside the vermilion purple gate, the person who was in the dust was actually a little fat.
Xiao Fat grabbed the horse rope, although the sweat was like rain, but he ran to Luoying with joy, and said, "Luoying, hurry, come with me, I have found your father's whereabouts!"
"My father?" Luo Ying pressed his hand, unable to believe it, "Are you serious?"
"Of course it's true, come up quickly, I'll tell you what the hell is going on later!"
Luo Ying immediately said goodbye to Lingyu, and after asking everything for a while, she followed Xiaopang all the way to the direction of the Beijing Canal. Everyone knows that next to the canal is the eerie and terrifying No. 1 military prison in the capital, which makes people frightened when they mention their names!
Time is pressing, but people's mood is even more urgent, and along the way, Chubby has been busy explaining the ins and outs of things to Luoying.
It turned out that the failure of King Ning's rebellion today made all the truth come out. The poison in the Bai family's winery was not at all what Master Bai intended to assassinate Jinshang, but Li Zongming, the governor of Yingtian, who colluded with King Ning in the early years, deliberately framed the Bai family after learning that the saint had discovered the clues of his disloyalty as a minister. In doing so, he was nothing more than to divert the emperor's attention from suspicion with unclear evidence to more trust in Li Zongming, who was "upright and impartial in law enforcement." Master Bai has always treated him like a dear, but he didn't expect that he was a clumsy-eyed cow, who couldn't see through the traitor, and was framed instead.
Although outsiders felt that it was unfair and inappropriate, no one dared to intervene because of his influence in the government and the opposition. Therefore, after a hasty investigation, the emperor got the evidence that had been designed to be dropped, and he didn't believe it indiscriminately, and in a fit of anger, he immediately ordered the Bai family to be wanted, so there was this unjust case that should be beheaded by Tianfu.
Li Zongming can be said to kill two birds with one stone, but he just didn't find Luoying's whereabouts, besides, his beloved son Ah Bao has always had a deep affection for Luo Ying, so naturally he can't say anything to him, but Lord Li's wife is a righteous and upright person, and it is unknown whether she mentioned this matter to Ah Bao.
Later, when he learned that Luo Ying had been imprisoned, there was no way to do it, this case had already been taken over by the saint himself, and the emperor had always been cautious and suspicious, and those who dared to murder him were bound to be carefully examined. Therefore, the people under his nose are, of course, unable to move.
The scheming Li Zongming may be because of his advanced age, or maybe because Ah Bao has grown up, and he has a lot of worries in his heart. Therefore, when Zhu Haochen wanted to plot against him again and again, he always hesitated, either prevaricating on the grounds that the time had not yet arrived, or persuading him to let go as soon as possible. After all, having had a very bumpy experience in the previous time, which also consumed a lot of his confidence, he felt that in the dark, there was always a force blocking his progress, for example, Bai Luoying.
King Ning, who was bent on rebellion, simply stopped caring about him, and on the day of the army in Anqing, he only sent a letter to Governor Li. Li Zongming is naturally very afraid, if the rebellion becomes good, he will no longer seek grand ambitions, no matter who will be in power in the future, as long as he ends up living and working in peace and contentment, he will know enough, but in case the matter is revealed, not to mention that the official position that he has worked hard all his life will not be able to protect, and the position above the neck is estimated to be unstable.
Lying on his side, he quickly went to the middle hall to find Ah Bao that night, hoping that Ah Bao could go home with him and give advice for himself, at least, not to end up ruined. Maybe Ah Bao already knew about his father's ungrateful scandal of marrying the Bai family, but he didn't agree. He had always hated the flies and dogs, and when that person was his closest relative, he felt even more love-hate.
As soon as he thought of Luoying, he ruthlessly refused, determined to stand firm.
Li Zongming was really a jumper who jumped over the wall, and he didn't give up if he didn't succeed this time, he immediately asked to meet the saint late at night, hinting that Ah Bao was willing to do his best for this rehabilitation, just because it was difficult to talk about saving people in prison before, and he would tell it on his behalf.
But said that the emperor is also a reasonable person, he has not been angry about that matter, but because of this, he feels that Li Abao is a person who values love and righteousness, and now he heard that he is willing to return to the court to serve himself, he was even more overjoyed, and made an order that night.
As everyone knows, Governor Li has already been so frightened that he has lost his soul, and there is no room for a grain of dust in his eyes. After receiving the holy decree, he sent people to follow him all the way, deliberately avoiding Bai Luoying, and using the holy decree to persuade Ah Bao away.
If you can't retreat with your whole body, at least, let Ah Bao lead the troops to help Wang Shouren pacify the rebellion of King Ning, and the emperor may be able to remember the old feelings of the monarch and the ministers and spare his life. Li Zongming, who jumped off the wall in a hurry, did not think about his son Ah Bao until the last moment.
Now, King Ning was captured alive by the emperor himself on the Yangtze River, and the various treacherous schemes that the two had colluded with for several years were naturally exposed, and Li Zongming was probably still in prison at this moment, waiting for his son to come back and intercede for himself!
Luo Ying, who heard these news, was already numb in her legs and feet.
The sound of the wind blew through her ears and rattled.
Don't cry, don't cry, you'll see my dad later. Luo Ying kept comforting herself, she covered her chest, it turned out that people's hearts can really hurt to the point of losing consciousness.
Don't seek redress for grievances, as long as you stay in the green mountains and have a clear heart, you will not be in vain in all kinds of disasters you have suffered in this life. As Po said, this is already a blessing in misfortune, isn't it?
Time flew by in the pain, and in the blink of an eye, the dark and quiet gate of the tiger prison moved to the front like the bloody mouth of an extremely fierce beast.
The third time, this is the third time, Luo Ying walked through this road, it was still so dark, damp, rotten, and narrow, that whoever walked through it would be so depressed that it would be difficult to breathe.
Xiao Fat led the way in front, and he whispered to Luo Ying, who had already put on his official uniform and walked closely behind him: "It's in cell No. 9, which is the key prison place of this tiger prison, and the environment is extremely dirty and bad. ”
"Okay, don't say it again!" Luo Ying's heart felt a chill, urging him to leave quickly from time to time.
Fat showed his eldest brother's order to pass through the military prison and soon made his way to the heavily guarded Ninth Prison Point, where he exchanged words with one of the prisoners before the heavy, rotten gate was babbling open.
The little brother quickly pulled out a man from inside, he was covered in mud, his long crazy hair had completely covered his face, his eyes were dull, the corners of his mouth were sticky hala, the smell was extremely vicious, and even his hands and feet, the only ones who could see the light, were covered with deep red and dense herpes.
Luo Ying pressed forward step by step, and every time she took a step, her heart tightened again. The man seemed to be very quiet, and kept his head hanging and did not speak, so peaceful, that Luo Ying mistakenly thought that he was so gentle because he felt the closeness of his daughter.
However, the moment the prisoner raised his jaw, Luo Ying was stunned, and she was stunned and froze in place, not moving at all.
Xiaopang also saw the prisoner's face, and he asked tentatively, "Luoying, is it him?"
"No, this is not my father, his eyes are different from my father!" Luo Ying shook her head frantically, tears burst down the embankment, and then, she sobbed and said: "Nothing is different, I can only see it now, the outline is different, the mouth is different, the length of hair is different, the size of hands and feet is different, and even the height is different, this person is not my father at all!"
"Woo woo woo ............"
Xiaopang hugged Luo Ying, who was almost collapsed, and said, "Why is this happening, I clearly saw the letter from the county official to my eldest brother, which is what he said!"
"What is here, it is not here!" When the two were in despair, a thick male voice came from behind them.
