When I woke up, there was a musty smell lingering on the tip of my nose.

It was a cell, and the door was chained with thick chains. The floor of the cell was covered with moldy hay, rats roamed my side and my feet with impunity, and there was a tiny gap in the upper right corner of the cell through which the sunlight shone in.

I was still dressed in blood, filthy and disheveled.

On the chair outside the cell, the cell boss and the prison were gambling, and during the gambling money, they did not forget to scold the prisoners around them.

I stared blankly at the prisoners in front of me, either excited, resigned, unwilling or cold. I never thought that one day I would be one of them, a prisoner.

Suddenly, a person hurriedly came from outside the cell, exchanged a few words with the cell boss, and saw the cell boss look at me and said, "Brothers, suspend the meeting, Lord Yin let the prisoner be taken out for trial." ”

After hearing this, the prison opened the door of the cell where I was, and two men lifted me up from the ground and walked out, one left and one right.

By this time I had not eaten for four days, and I was so weak that they dragged me to the hall.

Inside the hall, Governor Yin sat high above and looked down on me.

Governor Yin said: "Who is in the hall?" ”

I didn't answer, first, I was really tired, and second, this Yin Zhifu used to be my father's protégé, so it was impossible not to know me.

Seeing that I didn't answer, the master beside Governor Yin said: "My lord, the third lady of the General's Mansion is Nalan Mu, the third lady of the General's Mansion was destroyed yesterday, and some people witnessed that it was Nalan Mu who did it!" ”

I instantly looked up at my master, my eyes were sharp, I took a breath, and said, "Master, you can eat indiscriminately, don't talk nonsense!" ”

The master frowned and said, "I'm a dignified master, are you threatening me?" ”

I looked up to the sky and laughed, laughing so hard that my ribs hurt, and said, "There is no excuse for the sin you want to add!" Just ask, under the world, who will kill their relatives and cut off their own back road! You have no evidence and arrest people indiscriminately, don't I have a royal law in the Northern Underworld! ”

The master smiled contemptuously and said to Governor Yin: "My lord, can you pass on the witness?" ”

"Biography."

I never expected that the so-called human witness was actually a nurse who had been with me for many years.

I looked at the people who were walking slowly, and tears welled up in my eyes.

However, my nurse, who treated my mother like a sister, saw me at this time with only a frightened face, without pity, she trembled and knelt in front of Governor Yin, and said, "The old slave greets Master Yin, master." ”

Governor Yin said: "Excuse me, don't be afraid, and talk about it carefully." ”

The nurse glanced at me, bowed to Governor Yin's mansion again, and said: "Ten days ago, the third young lady and the second young master left the general's mansion for Yueqiu, thinking that they had been gone for several years, but they never thought that the third young lady would return with a group of black-clothed people yesterday evening... See people... Killed, thousands of lives in the general's mansion, almost no one was left alive, and the old slave was still from the backyard... The dog hole was drilled out to survive. Three Misses... The third lady was also brought up by an old slave, how did she become like this......"

After saying a paragraph, he began to choke.

I stopped crying and listened to her calmly, I have experienced so many things in the past two days, what is betrayal for me now?

I didn't speak, years of experience told me that it is useless to explain the crime that I want to add, I think, their goal is probably not just to condemn me, think I have no power and no power, the only identity is the third lady of the General's Mansion, now the General's Mansion has been destroyed, except for my father, eldest brother and second brother who are in a different place, there is no one else in the General's Mansion, what is the point of them embarrassing me a useless girl's family?

I think what they really want to embarrass is their father, who is rushing home.

Otherwise, with a prefect of Yin, if you want to set up this bureau, it is not enough to be capable, unless... The person who lays out is in a high position.

After listening to the nurse, Governor Yin asked me, "Nalan Mu, what else do you have to say?" ”

"I'm still the same sentence, there is no excuse for the sin I want to add."

Seeing my fearless look, the nurse cried: "Third Miss, you just admit it, knowing your mistakes can improve the great way, you are like this, Mrs. Quanxia has knowledge and will not die." ”

My voice was cold, and I said word by word: "You don't deserve to mention my mother, today you choose to betray the General's Mansion and betray my mother, in the future, you don't blame me for ignoring the past." ”

When the nurse heard this, her face turned white.

The master spoke at the right time and said, "Nalan Mu, now that there is a witness, I advise you to confess quickly, if you don't change after repeated teachings, beware of the big punishment." ”

I smiled contemptuously, at this time I finally really, became the self I didn't want to become, I said: "I am the law of the North Underworld, all suspects, need to collect human evidence, physical evidence can be convicted, if the convicted is an official, you need to report to the superior and even the king, and those who are beaten into a recruit will be dismissed according to the law." You've just found someone to charge me, what about the physical evidence? Even if I don't have a title, I'm a real general's concubine, and my father is still alive, so if I want to be convicted, I need to report it to my father, and it's not your turn to threaten me to be punished here! ”

The master was angry and said, "You ......"

Governor Yin stretched out his hand to signal him not to speak, his eyes narrowed into a line, and he suddenly smiled and said to me: "Miss Nalan is right, yesterday I sent someone to send a message to General Nalan quickly, and I believe that the general will return to the capital the day after tomorrow." And the physical evidence you're talking about... If not, how dare this official arrest people indiscriminately, come and bring up the sword! ”

A sword was thrown in front of me, and that sword was the sword I used to practice martial arts in the General's Mansion, and I didn't take it with me when I went to Yueqiu. By this time, the sword had been removed from its scabbard, and its body was covered in blood.

Governor Yin said, "Does Miss Nalan know this sword?" ”

I smiled sarcastically, "It seems that the prefect will not let me go today." ”

Governor Yin also smiled and said, "This official is only to seek the truth." ”

"What if I don't?"

"Now that there are human and material evidence, if Miss Nalan doesn't recruit her, then the official will only be tortured."
