Chapter 349: Friend and Foe
Fei'er's voice trembled after being suppressed, and it poured directly into the young man's heart like raindrops in the cold night.
Behind the bronze mask, the boy's expression became cryptic and inexplicable.
Fei'er's palms were drenched in a thin layer of sweat, and she looked at the young man with a focused and expectant expression, one breath, two breaths.
The waiting time became long and difficult, and Fei'er had never been so nervous in two lives, her hands were clenched tightly, her palms gradually became wet, and a heart hung in the air like this.
The answer is clear.
Her gaze was firmly fixed on the starry eyes of the young man, who were as cold as ice, and she was afraid that she had missed something.
The boy's eyes flickered, and there was something in those black and white eyes.
As soon as his thin lips opened in an arc, the sound of hurried footsteps suddenly came from inside the dungeon.
The young man glanced at her and asked hurriedly, "If you really don't leave, if you don't leave, you won't have a chance." ”
She shook her head at him, and the boy gritted his teeth and walked out of the cell quickly, disappearing into the dungeon as quickly as a shadow when he came.
Seeing him leave, Fei'er's heart swayed, and she became a little uneasy.
I was worried about him, but I also felt that I had missed such an opportunity in vain, and in the vast sea of people, I didn't know when I would see the boy next time, and if I didn't ask him clearly, this heart would never be calm.
After only a few breaths, in the dim inner dungeon, a torch was lit, and Guo Xiongzhou, the secretary of the Criminal Department, rushed to the dungeon with a group of guards.
Looking at the open cell door and the jailer who had passed out in the dungeon, my heart instantly lifted.
"Princess Pearl?" He shouted.
"My lord, I'm here." The girl's response came from inside the prison, which made Guo Xiongzhou's heart relax.
He hurriedly stepped into the dungeon, and seeing that she was safe and sound, Guo Xiongzhou wiped the beads of sweat on his forehead.
In the early morning, he entered the palace to see the Empress Dowager, and the Empress Dowager privately instructed him to protect the safety of Princess Mingzhu, and in only three days, the Criminal Department entered the foreign enemy for the second time, and he was the leader of the Criminal Department, this pressure can be imagined, fortunately, this time the enemy did not succeed, otherwise he really could not explain to the Empress Dowager.
The staff outside the prison came in and told Guo Xiongzhou, "My lord, there are no casualties, the other party stunned the jailer with **** and escaped from the roof." Our men didn't catch each other and let him run away. ”
Guo Xiongzhou's eyes fell on the unlocked iron door, looked at the room again, and said to the staff, "Take someone down, I have something to talk about with Princess Mingzhu." ”
The staff stepped back, leaving room for the two of them.
Without waiting for Guo Xiongzhou to ask, Fei'er said directly, "The person who broke into the prison today knows the little girl, and he came to rescue the little girl." Fei'er owes herself, "It has caused a lot of trouble to adults and the criminal department, and the little girl apologizes on her behalf." ”
It turned out to be an acquaintance, so it's no wonder, I didn't start, I just stunned people. Guo Xiongzhou waved his hand and said, "Princess Mingzhu is fine, the Queen Mother cares about Princess Mingzhu very much, and when she entered the palace today, she specially instructed her officials to protect Princess Mingzhu well." ”
"Thank you Empress Dowager, Empress Dowager's heart to the little girl, the little girl is very grateful to me, if Lord Guo sees the Empress Dowager next time, please convey the little girl's gratitude to the Empress Dowager."
is so polite and grateful, worthy of the honorific title of the princess, Guo Xiongzhou said with a smile, "Don't worry, the princess will definitely bring the princess's words." The Empress Dowager also instructed her to act as originally planned tomorrow. ”
The girl's eyes lit up, and Guo Xiongzhou continued, "The Empress Dowager also asked the lower officials to tell the princess that the Min family's Min Ziye was summoned into the palace by her and waited in front of her. She made the princess know by heart. ”
The girl sighed, "I see." The two chatted a few more words, and Guo Xiongzhou left the cell.
On this day and night, there were many people who couldn't sleep at night.
In the early morning of the next day, the door of the lobby of the Criminal Department had just opened, and a large group of people from the Jiang family, the Ling family brothers and sisters, Mo Qing, and Sixiangzhai's friends who had been guarding the door poured into the hall one after another, and almost knocked the officers and soldiers who opened the door to the ground.
Jiang Tianyu pulled the guards at the right time, and said softly, "Little brother, I'm sorry, Princess Mingzhu is in prison, and the family is a little anxious and reckless. ”
Jiang Tianyu was born delicate, and his attitude was good, and the guards didn't care about them, "You came early, and you were promoted to the hall after an hour." ”
"It's going to be another hour, so let's sit and wait." Jiang Tianyu said politely.
If it weren't for the news that Fei'er was all right in prison, the Jiang brothers would have been able to rush directly into the prison, but fortunately, there was only one hour before they could see Fei'er.
"Come, come, everyone sit down first." Mo Qing greeted everyone, in the past few days, he has come to the Criminal Department every day to report to the Criminal Department, and he has already been familiar with the Criminal Department.
As the time approached, everyone's mood became more and more anxious, and their eyes stared straight at the entrance of the hall.
"Why hasn't my Fei'er come out yet?" Jiang Jinfu couldn't sit still and walked back and forth in front of the hall.
His heart was getting more and more anxious, he hadn't seen his niece for three days, and he didn't know if his niece was doing well in prison.
Thinking of the hard stone bed in the cell, the rice that was as hard as a stone, Jiang Jinfu clenched his fists tightly, he had tasted the taste of squatting in the cell, although the Jiang family later handed the silver money in, but when he went in that day, he still suffered a lot.
Even though Fei'er repeatedly assured him that she would not be abused in prison, but think about the cold cell, even many rough men can't stand it, and how can the niece's thin skin and tender flesh bear it.
Jiang Jinfu turned back and forth, making the already uncertain person dizzy, Jiang Tianyu couldn't help but speak, "Brother, don't go, sit down, if you turn like this, my head will sweat." ”
"I'm not worried about Phil." Jiang Jinfu said.
"We're all worried, brother. It's only half an hour, so bear with it. ”
Jiang Jinfu glanced at the people present, because everyone was guarding the entrance of the criminal department before dawn, and they all looked a little tired at this time.
He sighed and sat down, only for half an hour, bear with it any longer.
Half an hour later, the hall was already crowded with people, many of them were refugees who had been soup soup at the gate of the city, and some were people from Kyoto.
It is not excluded that there are some people who want Princess Mingzhu to be ugly in the crowd.
The noise of the crowd was silent when Guo Xiongzhou, the secretary of the Criminal Department, arrived.
When they saw Guo Xiongzhou, the Jiang brothers and all the people who were concerned about Fei'er instantly raised their hearts.
His eyes were fixed on the entrance of the hall for a moment.
