Chapter 258: Lonely Grass (1)

The Inner Court Bureau is in charge of the internal affairs of the palace, and there is a Shang Punishment Department in charge of the harem prison, during which the interrogators of the prisoners are all ruthless veterans. The murder of the queen was originally unforgivable, but fortunately, Yin Suwen was a person who was personally interrogated by the Queen Mother but was not convicted, and he did not suffer too much when he was imprisoned. even coincidentally allocated the only cell in the dungeon with a small window to let her live alone, thinking that Leng Qiushui had spent a lot of time.

Bai Cha, who had been sentenced to thirty canes, was half-dead and thrown into the prison by two guards, and the sound of weak pain made it even more miserable in the dreary and empty prison.

Yin Su asked to see if the other party would be next to him, but he opened his mouth and finally didn't ask. She wanted to talk to Bai Cha a few more words, He Caiwei was too anxious and caused her to be exposed prematurely, Yin Suwen was already able to conclude that she was the one behind her, and thought that if she could turn Bai Cha back, it might be much easier.

It's a pity that the prison guard didn't give her this opportunity, and Bai Cha's screams gradually faded away, and it seemed that she was taken to the farthest point at the other end of the dungeon, and Yin Suwen had no choice but to give up. This place is famous, but fortunately, she has been a person who has suffered hardships, and she has never been subjected to the so-called torture to extract confessions, and her body and spirit are still healthy, but she is a little worried about the cowardly and wronged pearl.

The original Yin Suwen would occasionally sigh that his fate was unfortunate when he was wronged, except for the illusory and ridiculous ten years, it seemed that he had never had a chance to be truly happy. Now that I think about it, I can't help but laugh, how bad is her fate. Even those who were a little closer to her would have suffered in vain, and the last thing she could do was not be able to protect them.

The jailer brought in a bowl of half-rancid rice, and impatiently dropped the phrase "a gift from the deceased". Yin Suwen had no intention of eating and drinking, and only pulled a few times at random, and picked up a small paper roll at the bottom of the bowl, which said crookedly and twisted a few boys, "Su Su is not afraid". Leng Qiushui's handwriting is still not good-looking, and the font is unorganized but chic, like her lively and jumping temperament.

Fortunately, there are still people who are worried about it, and Yin Suwen feels that he is a little blessed.

In the dungeon, which was originally damp and stormy, in the late autumn night, Luo Ji couldn't bear the cold of the fifth watch, and it was cold for a while. She squeezed into the corner. Pick some slightly drier straw and spread it, and wrap your hands tightly around your knees, leaning on yourself to keep warm. I stayed up until the second half of the night before I fell asleep in a daze.

Through the half-cut low window above the yellow mud embryo, you could still catch a glimpse of the starlight in the night, but at this time, the wind and rain were only full of darkness, just like in Yin Suwen's dream, the wind and rain were not bright at all.

She first dreamed of the boundless darkness where she couldn't see her fingers. In the cold and depressed, he was the only one who walked alone. The cold rain poured down around him, and the pain felt very real on him. Even if he knew it was a dream, Yin Suwen still felt scared.

After walking like this for a long time. At last I could see a little light, which was small and erratic at first, and then became brighter and brighter as we approached. It wasn't until I got close that I saw someone coming with an umbrella in one hand and a lantern in the other.

"Xinche, Brother Xinche, is that you?"

Yin Suwen in the dream felt a burst of ecstasy in his heart, just like Yin Suwen outside the dream muttered to himself and called Xinche's name. Her brother came with an umbrella and a lantern, and threw her into the light under the paper umbrella, so the wind and rain stopped, and there was light.

He appeared like a warm firework in an instant, surrounding Yin Suwen in light and warmth, and he didn't speak for a while, just looked at her and smiled slightly. The way he smiled was very good-looking, just like when Yin Suwen secretly looked at him at the beginning, his eyebrows and eyes were affectionate, the corners of his mouth were crooked, and his eyes were filled with the light of the sun and the moon.

Yin Suwen wanted to talk to him, but before he could open his mouth, the light suddenly went out, and Xinche's figure disappeared in an instant. Yin Suwen panicked for a while, he didn't want to, but the person who saw him again when the light rose again turned out to be the queen mother. The Queen Mother is still in the gorgeous clothes on the hall today, her eyebrows and eyes are blurred, but the familiar and oppressive feeling has not changed.

She asked in a deep voice, "Yin Su asked, what do you want?" Yin Suwen felt that the voice exploded in his head, and his heart shook for a while, and his whole body ached faintly. She couldn't answer for a while, so the Queen Mother walked slowly towards her step by step, approached and beckoned to her and said, "Yin Su asked, come here, come to me." ”

Yin Suwen in the dream kept warning himself on the one hand, and at the moment he was facing the enemy who did not share the sky, and on the other hand, he was urged by a spontaneous fear to stay away from that person. For a while, there was a lot of wind and rain around him, and Yin Suwen was stunned and at a loss, and finally woke up in a thunderclap.

"It's a dream. Luckily, it was just a dream. ”

She panted and comforted herself that it was just a dream. Her brother was not caught up in the whirlpool of chaos in her own water, and the intimidating Queen Mother didn't really want to beckon her forward.

Before the breath subsided, Yin Suwen raised his eyes slightly, but caught a glimpse of a black figure standing in the narrow and cramped corridor. The figure seemed to be eyeing her, neither of them speaking first, and a moment later the figure approached the nearest cell door and slowly reached out and took off his black cloak.

"Yin Su asked, who did you see in your dream?"

The Queen Mother's makeup is still exquisite, and there is a hint of tiredness in the corners of her eyes, and she is facing Yin Suwen's messy and unsteady gaze. A dazzling electric light flashed outside the window, and Yin Suwen saw his unclear reflection in the eyes of the Queen Mother's intently staring intently.

Years later, she can still remember that night vividly. During the last autumn rain, the Queen Mother came alone to the cold dungeon to accompany her through half the night.

"Tell me, what did you dream about on your first night in a place like this?"

Yin Suwen was obviously shocked, but the Queen Mother was calm, lit a dim oil lamp, and asked a dream word with perseverance. Visiting prison late at night, it really seems like it's just for chatting about breath and dreams. Yin Su was speechless for a while, and could only try to calm his emotions while vaguely replying, "I just dreamed of a few old people."

Wrapping the thin skirt on her body more tightly, she coughed a few times unconsciously, and the Queen Mother casually threw an ankle-length crane cloak in. The length is just right, light and warm, as if it was specially prepared for her.

After a little hesitation, Yin Suwen still couldn't bear the cold and took the cloak, and after thinking about it, he felt that he should get up and salute. Although she saw that the time and dress of the queen mother did not look like she was on patrol on business, she still couldn't figure out the other party's thoughts, and she was careful not to abolish the etiquette, but she didn't know that she had not yet gotten up but was stopped by the queen mother directly waving her hand.

"Come on, what kind of etiquette is there in this kind of place. Naturally, the queen mother who came to see you at this time was not the queen mother who left the country. ”

When she said this, Yin Suwen became more and more confused, and couldn't help but ask a little sluggishly.

"It's not the Queen Mother who left the country, that's ??????"

"Not many people know my maiden name, so you can call it whatever you want, Huangfu or Qianqian. I'm just going to come and see, and I'll leave later, and you don't think it's too late. (To be continued.) )
