The next day, Shen Youqing arrived at the gate of the prison on time.

Huo Ying seemed to have some intention of watching the excitement, and stood outside the door for a long time.

Shen Youqing raised his eyes to look at the one-foot-high prison door, and the cold air leaked out of the half-covered prison door, and Shen Youqing couldn't help but tremble.

"Fourth Miss, the visit time is only a quarter of an hour, please hurry up."

Huo Ying stared ahead, said to Shen Youqing, and then gave a few words to the person guarding the prison door, and the person pushed the cell door open a little.

There was a muffled thud as the heavy cell door was pushed open, as if a fierce roar was in the center of the door.

Huo Ying turned around and wanted to leave, but Shen Youqing grabbed him, his voice was a little weak, "You, won't you go in together?" ”

Shen Youqing only felt that this prison was dark and damp, and most of them were death row inmates, so it was not suitable for her to enter alone, and at this moment, she didn't care if Huo Ying would laugh at her.

"Fourth Miss wants the official to be there?"

"Master Huo should have something to say to my second brother......

Shen Youqing let go of Huo Ying's sleeves, with a smile on his face, but he looked a little reluctant.

Huo Ying raised his eyebrows and nodded. "Since the fourth miss has this need, the official should accompany her, and there are many fish and dragons in the prison, and please consider what the fourth miss wants to say carefully."

Shen Youqing was a little depressed, and punched him in the back, Huo Ying had already entered the prison first, and Shen Youqing immediately followed, "Wait for me-"

Before entering the prison, Shen Youqing just thought that the prison would be very cold and damp, and there were snakes, insects, rats and ants, but when he really came in, he found that it was very gloomy all around, and there were wailing sounds around from time to time, which was extremely desolate and terrifying.

Shen Youqing's feet suddenly stepped on something, soft, and moved slightly......

"Ahh

She screamed, and Huo Ying laughed in her ear: "Fourth Miss." You seem to have stepped on a rat just now. ”

Shen Youqing was cold, her two hands tightly dominated Huo Ying's left arm, she hated these little things the most since she was a child, and she was afraid for a long time every time she saw them.

Huo Ying's tone was relaxed. Shen Youqing really wanted to grab a mouse and stuff it into his hand to see if he could still be so comfortable......

"Didn't Miss Fourth say it just now, the most in the prison are not prisoners, but snakes, insects, rats and ants, if Miss Fourth is lucky. You can see snakes. Huo Ying's arm was clenched tightly by her, and her hand was a little numb, but he couldn't break free, thinking that she was really scared, she couldn't help but smile, but the words she said made Shen Youqing feel even more frightened.

Sure enough, Shen Youqing's voice trembled a little-

"Huo Ying!"

She only now found out that Huo Ying actually had such a side, ungentlemanly and restless.

The cool breeze inside the prison is different from the outside. It was a biting chill, and now it was September, and it was almost late autumn, and the prison was even more damp and cold, and people couldn't help but shiver.

In addition, Shen Youqing was frightened, and she shivered even more, so she couldn't tell whether it was because she was scared or because she was cold......

Huo Ying looked at her funny, put away her playful thoughts, pointed to a cell in front of her and said, "Fourth Miss." That's it ahead. ”

Shen Youqing let go of his arm and walked a few steps briskly to the prison door, "Second brother." ”

Huo Ying motioned to the doorkeeper to open the cell door, and the doorkeeper hesitated for a while. Huo Ying opened his mouth and said, "This official asked you to open the door!" If something happens, the official will bear it alone! ”

When he heard this, the doorkeeper opened the door......

"Second brother, are you okay?"

Shen Youqing rushed in front of Shen Yu with an arrow step, Shen Yu was not punished, but he had not been groomed for a few days. His hair was a little messy, his clothes were dirty, and at a glance, he had completely lost his former majesty, and he had lost a lot of weight.

Shen Yu's eyes were slightly stunned, and he didn't seem to react to who the person in front of him was.

"Second brother, it's me, I'm coming to see you."

Shen Youqing casually lowered her head, only to find that Shen Yu's feet were locked with an iron chain, and when he moved slightly, he made a sound.

"Qingqing, is my mother okay?" Shen Yu suddenly grabbed her hand and asked in a hoarse voice.

Shen Youqing nodded and said softly, "Auntie is fine, but I'm worried about you...... Second brother, what's going on? ”

Shen Yu shook his head helplessly, glanced at Huo Ying outside the door, and continued: "The second brother has already told Zhong Yun about what happened, and there is really nothing else. ”

"But—"

"Qingqing, you have to believe the second brother, I am the Shen family, so I will never do anything unfaithful and unjust, but I am afraid that this matter is intentionally planted against me, and it may not be easy to clear up......"

Shen Yu fell silent for a moment, and then said solemnly after a while: "Qingqing, if the second brother can't escape this catastrophe this time, please help the second brother take good care of my mother, as well as Lan'er and Fu'er, I don't know if my affairs will affect her......"

"Second brother!" Shen Youqing couldn't bear to listen to it anymore and stopped his words.

"It's not that there is no way to do this, Huo Ying also said that there is still room for turnaround...... It could be that someone in the palace who hated Concubine Yu killed her, and then you became a scapegoat, is it also possible, Lord Huo? ”

Shen Youqing turned his head to look at Huo Ying, hoping that he could give Shen Yu a glimmer of hope, Huo Ying walked in, stopped in front of Shen Youqing, looked directly at her, and spoke for a long time before he spoke, but he didn't say what Shen Youqing wanted.

"Wen Yuan, if it's really not you, why did His Majesty take you into custody?"

"What did you say?"

Shen Yu looked at him in shock, "A classmate for a few years, don't you know who I am?" Because it's Majesty, you'd rather believe that I killed someone? ”

Huo Ying stood there quietly and listened to Shen Yu's accusations against him, without saying a word.

Shen Youqing felt inexplicable, obviously he didn't say that before, and he also believed the second brother before......

Huo Ying approached her ear and lowered her voice, "Shen Youqing, what did you tell you before?" Let you carefully consider your own words, do you listen to the words of this official? ”

His tone was very indifferent, and there was an oppressive nature that had to be obeyed, so that Shen Youqing did not dare to refute.

He looked at him in amazement, and did not say a word until the cell door was closed.

"Second brother, there will be a way, if you still remember this aunt, you must pass this hurdle, and also, the prince is about to go on the expedition, doesn't the second brother still want to go with the army? So you must not give up ......"

Shen Youqing was almost dragged out of the prison by Huo Ying, and it wasn't until the heavy door closed heavily that she broke free of Huo Ying's hand.

Huo Ying didn't continue to teach her, didn't even say a word, and turned around and left directly, Shen Youqing followed silently, she vaguely felt that Huo Ying seemed to be angry. (To be continued.) )
