Chapter 49: Covering the Sky with One Hand (Part 2)
Lu Zhu didn't twist it, and stuffed the silver ticket back into his sleeve, but between you and me, the eunuch's impression of her must have improved a little, which is good for her. After all, there is still a period of time to live in Yao Kingdom, and the unpredictable Yao Huang Bao may not trouble her again, and the news should not be difficult to find out when she is summoned next time.
"Father-in-law, please lead the way."
The steps to deal with pus are not difficult, just now Xiaowu also saw her operate a few times on the side, presumably she also learned, Luzhu said a few words to him and left with Anfu.
Since we don't know what the outcome will be, but we all have to go, we should hurry up and avoid being accused of contempt of the monarch again.
The sedan chair was not inlaid with the golden side of the royal car, but it was in the style of a carriage ridden by ordinary ministers, far inferior to the carriages of the prince's palace and the prime minister's mansion. Presumably, there was indeed a plan to recruit her into the palace this time, but she was secretly summoned and not known to others.
"Why did the girl stop, hurry up and get into the carriage, Emperor Yao should be in a hurry."
The shrill voice pulled Midori back from his thoughts, Midori took a deep breath, smiled apologetically, and followed into the carriage without words.
When they reached the gate of the palace, the carriage was really stopped by the guards guarding the door. Anfu was not as arrogant as before, but just lifted the curtain of the car slightly and poked his head out, untied the token on his waist and showed it to the guards who came forward.
The guards naturally knew the weight of this token, and now looking at this mysterious posture, they are also people with vision, and they know that they shouldn't ask too much about things that shouldn't be taken care of, so they waved their hands at the guards guarding the door to let them go.
The carriage drove again, and the green beads skimmed off the fluttering curtains, but they were surprised to find that this road was extremely unfamiliar, they had never walked before, and they felt the slightest coolness behind them, and the green beads were a little creepy.
This time, it was really unpredictable. Now her only hope is that Yao Jinmo can appear in front of her soon, but unfortunately, the detours along the way, avoiding people's eyes, presumably even if Yao Jinmo came to look for her, he would have to explore for a long time, but he didn't know her at that time......
Luzhu no longer looked at the scene outside the carriage, but just leaned quietly on the carriage, his eyes lowered, his eyes stagnant at the bottom of the carriage, and his thoughts were already flying.
After about half an hour, the carriage finally stopped. The fatigue of treating Wei Lao's wounds has not disappeared, and after a long time of riding in the carriage with some bumps, Lu Zhu is really tired now. But due to Anfu's constant urging, she couldn't make a request for a moment of rest, so she could only force herself out of the carriage.
In the eyes, the green beads are like frightened birds and beasts.
It's clearly a dungeon! An extremely large iron door occupies a third of the entire prison, and because of its age, some places are rusty and brownish-red, but it is probably because it is often tended to be taken care of, so it does not look dilapidated. The walls are made of mud and rock, yellow mixed with dirt, and the corners are covered with moss.
There are no other houses around, and standing alone in this remote area adds a bit of gloomy and heavy feeling.
And the stone wall on the top of the iron gate is impressively engraved with the three big characters of the Prudent Criminal Division!
The gate was locked with large chains, and a guard stood on each side.
Walking to the prison door, Anfu handed the token to one of the guards, and the guards looked at it seriously for a long time before nodding to the person next to him, and the two took out the key on their waists together, and twisted it at the key mouth for a long time before the chain clicked open.
An Fu turned his head to look at Lu Zhu, who had been following behind him without saying a word, and when he saw her abrupt but pretending to be calm, he shook his head regretfully, but he didn't say a word.
After entering this criminal punishment department, few people are safe and sound, and those who escape with their whole bodies are either tortured to the point of being half-paralyzed, or have since lost their minds, or are directly thrown into mass graves. It's a shame that such a delicate girl is......
Thinking of this, An Fu couldn't help but sigh deeply, Lu Zhu could already see the fluctuation in his eyes, but this sound made her heart chuckle.
However, once you come, you will be safe, and you will be able to see Emperor Yao after you see it, and now you are not disturbing yourself by mediocrity. Finally, Luzhu's turbulent heart gradually calmed down, and Anfu walked into the dim and damp prison.
As soon as I stepped into the prison, a strong, disgusting, pungent smell came to my face, like the dampness after the rain and the smell of dried blood. Anfu quickly rolled up his wide sleeves to cover his nose, and Lu Zhu blocked the air outlet with his index finger.
I also went to the morgue at the bottom of the hospital back then, although the smell is not as strong, but it is the same source as today's smell, it is the smell of corpses! It's just that I don't know if the people here deserve to die for their sins or unjustly!
The space was dimly lit, with only a few oil lamps on either side of the room flickering faintly, but there was no trace of the fire floating in a place where almost no wind could blow in. The air has long been muddy, not only the smell of dampness and blood, but also a strong smell of death!
After tossing and turning through Guò several passages, Anfu finally stopped in front of a cell. The cell was cleaner than what I had seen on the road before, and the pungent smell wasn't too strong. The inside is very empty, there are no superfluous furnishings, only a dragon chair that is slightly simpler than the court hall and the person sitting on it - Yao Huang!
"Are you guilty?"
Emperor Yao was sitting with his back to her, and Lu Zhu couldn't see his expression at this moment, but heard a voice that was no different from that in the hall that day. It's just that there is no doubt about the arrogance in the tone of the water.
"Dare to ask Emperor Yao's daughter what is the crime?" Emperor Yao made it clear that he was targeting her everywhere, and the green beads were just thorns in his eyes, although she didn't know why it was like this, but now it seemed that it was not because of Wei Qitong's relationship, and she didn't have to worry about good words everywhere and followed him, so she simply did the opposite, and her tone overshadowed him and asked.
Seeing that her courage was commendable suddenly, Emperor Yao raised his eyebrows, the look in his eyes was uncertain, and he continued to count her crimes: "Murdering Prime Minister Yao Guowei, he is now unconscious in the mansion, and his life and death are uncertain, is he innocent?" ”
"If I remember correctly, it was Emperor Yao who asked me to save Wei Lao in the side hall that day, and even the imperial doctor was helpless to mention Wei Lao's condition, asserting that there was only one month left. Now I have tried my best to save Wei Lao from the ghost gate, and the infection situation in the morning has also been suppressed by me, and Wei Lao will wake up in less than an hour. Since Emperor Yao is so clear about the situation of Wei Lao, he must have planted his eyeliner in the Wei Mansion, so he will not know the specific and true situation, and there is no excuse for the crime he wants to add, is Emperor Yao now planning to cover the sky with imperial power? ”
