Chapter Seventy-Seven: The Battle of the Trapped Beasts

In the prison of Dali Temple, the cells are built by grouting, which is extremely hard, and it is not an exaggeration to say that the copper wall is ironclad. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

A few rays of white moonlight shone through the small open windows on the wall, casting a cold and bitter cold light on the gray and black earth and stone walls. It is as if there are countless hideous-looking lonely ghosts hiding in it and quietly watching, trying to drag you into the gates of the underworld.

This is the first time Gu Hanqing has set foot in prison.

This cold, oppressive, death-filled place, he really never imagined that one day it would become a place where his fate was imprisoned.

It's like imprisoning Cheng Jinzhi at the beginning.

Since the Dali Temple has always been responsible for reviewing relatively important cases, most of the prisoners detained and arraigned for trial are of high status or prominent status, rather than ordinary people. Civilians who have broken the law by petty theft or burning and looting really don't really have the opportunity to visit here.

At the other end of the Netherworld, a dim light flickered and flickered, and then, a slightly anxious footsteps walked down the steps made of stone platforms, and soon came to the outside of the cell where Gu Hanqing was.

However, Gu Hanqing still sat against the wall with his back to the cell door, not reacting to the arrival of others at all.

After all, he already knew in his heart who it was.

"His Royal Highness the Prince, this is it. ”

"Okay, open the door for the palace, and the palace wants to catch up with Gu Shaozhu. ”

With a screeching sound of the door opening, the cell boss had already opened the cell door neatly. The prince stepped into the prison and saw that Gu Hanqing was still indifferent with his back to him, and tilted his mouth slightly unpleasantly.

He waved to the jailer outside, only to see a jailer walk in and place a box of vermilion lacquer food on a square table in the middle of the cell, and then the group all withdrew.

Seeing that the idlers and others had retreated, the prince quickly regained his self-satisfied face, and pretended to be enthusiastic and stepped forward with a smile and said, "Young Master Gu, I haven't seen you for many days, don't come unharmed." But it seems... You don't seem to welcome Hongu. ”

Gu Hanqing's eyebrows swept lightly, slowly straightened his back and turned around, after his eyes came into contact with the prince, there was not a trace of surprise in his eyes, but he stood up expressionlessly, bowed tepidly, and saluted.

"Gu didn't know that His Royal Highness the Prince was coming, and he missed the welcome, so he asked His Royal Highness the Prince to forgive his sins. ”

"Young Master Gu doesn't have to be polite, speaking of which, we can be regarded as old friends. The prince made a gesture of helplessness, looked at the food box on the table and pretended to be concerned, "Today is the night of the winter solstice, and it is inevitable that Young Master Gu will feel lonely and lonely when he is alone in prison. The palace specially ordered someone to prepare some food for the young master, and a bowl of freshly ground rice balls, I don't know if it suits the taste of the young master. ”

Gu Hanqing didn't even glance at the food box brought by the prince, and said with a silent face: "Thank you for your kindness, Your Royal Highness the Prince, but Gu is just a guilty body, and I really don't dare to bother His Royal Highness the Crown Prince so much." Besides, the prison is cold and gloomy, it is really not a place for a person of noble status like You, Your Royal Highness, the Crown Prince, to come here, Your Highness should go back as soon as possible. ”

Although Gu Hanqing's tone did not fluctuate, his decision to not be with him had already been clarified in his words, and he indirectly gave the prince an expulsion order.

But he didn't actually act so calm and fearless on the surface. After all, he is not only shouldering the mission of inheriting the ancestral business, but also the rise and fall of the entire Gu family.

From the moment the prince stepped into the prison door, all the mysteries that had haunted him before had surfaced one after another. Whether it was the Bizhou official silver robbery case that year, or the later frame-up of the prison of the Criminal Department, the truth has been revealed.

This also means that what Gu Hanqing is facing now is a tough battle of life or death, and there is no way back at all.

But he couldn't die generously alone, and he couldn't betray his friends with a clear conscience. At this moment, Gu Hanqing is like a tired bird that has been knocked down from the sky by a hunter and left the flock, unable to stretch its injured wings, and can only wait for others to rescue it, or die.

However, the prince was bent on putting the bet on Gu Hanqing, how could he easily retreat from the difficulty? He smiled coldly quietly, and just wanted to speak, but saw Gu Hanqing looking up at the high window on the wall, as if he was talking to himself, and as if he was deliberately mocking.

"It turns out that today is the night of the winter solstice, no wonder Gu always feels that there is a gust of wind around him, and he is deeply resentful, as if something unclean is hiding in the dark and staring at us. ”

Over the years, although the prince has not killed anyone with his own hands, he has indeed done a lot of immoral things behind his back, which harms the loyalty and goodness, harms others and interests himself. Now when he heard Gu Hanqing's words, he immediately trembled, looked around tremblingly, took a deep breath and forced himself to calm down, "Young Master Gu, this palace sees that you have been in such a dark place for too long, and your spirit is too nervous. ”

However, Gu Hanqing turned a deaf ear to the prince's words, but continued to look out the window calmly, and said unhurriedly: "But fortunately, Gu Mou acts above board and has a clear conscience, otherwise he will be hooked by those lonely souls and wild ghosts, and he will fall into the boundless hell and will not die well." ”

The prince's mind was so sensitive, he could naturally hear that Gu Hanqing was mocking him. But because Gu Hanqing still has a great use value, he can only temporarily put away his gloom and ignore it, and smile.

After all, even if Gu Hanqing can speak well, he can only speak quickly here, and he is not afraid. And he is the one who really controls the fate of him and the entire Gu family.

"Young Master Gu has said so much, it's the turn of this palace to say a few words. The prince paced slowly in front of Gu Hanqing, his eyes sharp, "This palace doesn't know what hell looks like, and I'm not afraid of any lonely souls and wild ghosts coming to ask for my life, but this palace knows that for Gu Shaozhu, the situation at this moment is actually no different from hell, isn't it?"

Gu Hanqing pondered for a moment when he heard this, raised his eyes slightly, and sighed faintly: "This is just the idea of His Royal Highness the Prince, Gu Mou doesn't think so." ”

"Oh?" the prince's expression narrowed, and he raised his eyebrows and smiled, "It seems that Young Master Gu is very sure that he can get out of this place safely." Or is the young master still hoping that some people will be able to save you?"

Gu Hanqing looked at the prince's sly and smug face, and a hint of sadistic sneer appeared on his lips: "Yes or no, what? This is all Gu Mou's own business, and it has nothing to do with His Royal Highness the Prince." Is it because Your Highness has come here overnight to say these innocuous words?"

"What Young Master Gu said... But it made Bengong a little sad. The prince raised his hand and straightened his clothes, took a deep breath and said, "This palace came here late at night, of course, to save the young master, and wanted to relieve the siege for the young master and the Gu family." ”

"Really?"

Gu Hanqing's eyes were rolling, but his face was unmoved. He raised his head to meet the prince's smug gaze, and his words were like ice.

"Does His Royal Highness the Crown Prince want to relieve Gu Mou, or... Relieve yourself, Your Highness?"
