Ye Jinyu thought he was fine, anyway, he was not too hungry at this time and didn't care too much about this bowl of porridge, but unexpectedly, across the wall, the voice of the old man calling him came, it turned out that he just returned to his cell and leaned against the wall in a comfortable position.

"That little baby." The old man's voice was very hoarse, almost indistinguishable from the human voice, like a few white bones rubbing there, making a "gurgling" sound.

"Old man, what's the matter?" Ye Jinyu got close to the wall, separated from the old man by the wall, and started chatting.

"The Ye family?" The old man spoke casually. There is only one Ye family in this imperial city, and when he spoke up like this, he obviously didn't take the Ye Dao family seriously.

"Hmm." Ye Jinyu responded, but he didn't refute this half-dead old man, after all, he was a senior.

The old man smiled, with resentment and happiness in his smile, "It seems that you are Ye Dao's youngest son, he has not lived as long as me, and Li Ruhui has also lived without me for a long time." ”

"Sir." Ye Jinyu stood up and handed over the wall, "Please don't talk about my father and the emperor's uncle." ”

The old man smiled again, and finally did not mention the name of the old emperor again.

"What's your name?" The old man asked Ye Jinyu, and he answered truthfully.

Behind the wall, the old man shook his head, "I haven't heard of this name, it seems that you are his child who has been trying to hide." ”

"Then do you know my Li Sui and Li Chendu?" Li Junci asked.

The old man reluctantly pressed his head against the iron door of the cell, looked at Li Junci carefully, and nodded.

"Dawn and Twilight ......"

"How is Li Chendusk?"

The old man smiled and bluntly said that Ye Jinyu was not good, "Naïve, and too anxious." ”

Hearing this, Ye Jinyu suddenly became much more honest and said "sorry".

"Li Chendui, in fact, there is no Li Sui to say, tenacity and courage, unscrupulous means, these two words alone are enough to summarize Li Chendui." When the old man spoke, it was extraordinary, and it was specific and generalized, although Li Junci couldn't distinguish whether it was accurate or not.

"What about Li Sui?" Ye Jinyu hurriedly asked.

"Li Sui?"

Ye Jinyu said "um".

The old man smiled, leaned back against the wall, and lay down with half-squinted eyes. On this cool morning, a ray of sunlight shone into the two dark cells. But...... This is the old man's last time, and in the matter of living, the old man is more transparent than Ye Jinyu.

"He's more interesting than Li Chendu. I've heard some of his gossip, but I'd rather talk about what it was like when I met him. After speaking, the old man began his narration, and in the old man's narration, Ye Jinyu met a brand-new, unfamiliar Li Sui......

"I remember that time he came to interrogate the guy over there." The old man stretched out his hand and pointed towards an empty cell, "At first, he still had a kind smile on his face, not the kind of arbitrariness, nor the feeling of believing that he would succeed, but the kind of elegance and gentleness. ”

"I know the identity of the prisoner, a Turkic general, and they all have hard mouths." Speaking of this, the old man sighed, "At that time, I was sitting in my current position, watching the second brother in your mouth pierce the long bamboo stick into the ten fingernails of the Turk without saying a word, and then forcibly broke off the ten fingers for him, without saying a word, not even interrogating ......."

Ye Jinyu gasped and whispered, "This can't be!" ”

The old man didn't rush to speak again, but poked his dry palm from the cell and stroked Ye Jinyu's hair twice.

It seems that he has drunk porridge at the moment, and he is much better.

"Knowing people and knowing faces but not hearts, it seems that you are the same as your mother, hasn't he always failed to see Ye Dao?"

Ye Jinyu was surprised by the old man's understanding of their intricate family, but he only opened his mouth and didn't say anything.

"Want to ask about your mother?" The old man seemed to have seen through Ye Jinyu's thoughts. What child doesn't want to know a little bit about his parents?

"Hmm." Ye Jinyu nodded.

After the old man drank the porridge and rice, he was obviously in a good mood, so he chatted with him about Ye Jinyu's mother for a few words, and then returned to the matter of Li Sui......

Ye Jinyu didn't know why, it was clear that the sad memory of yesterday didn't appear in his mind at all, maybe because he didn't think about it, maybe because he was deeply attracted by the old man's story.

"I saw that he cut off the flesh and skin of the general's body little by little, almost two taels, even though the man had frankly said that he would tell everything he knew, but your second brother still did not stop his work......"

Worried, Ye Jinyu imagined that scene, and he didn't know why he was so uncomfortable, from the beginning of this conversation, he never showed a smile again, although the old man tried his best to tell this story more easily.

“…… I still remember that the smell of blood that day permeated every corner of the cell, and the smell was so strong that the Turks managed to survive. Li Sui didn't look so easy. At that time, I knew that there was a trace of compassion in his heart. Scheming, ruthless, and still a silver lining in doing things...... When the dynasty was in power, it should be that he was in power! Finally, the old man sighed.

Ye Jinyu was also groaning, and whispered, "He should have ascended the throne." ”

"But he's not the prince."

Ye Jinyu smiled bitterly and shook his head, but the old man turned around, his dark eyes seemed to want to look at Ye Jinyu through.

"You are." The old man said in a deep voice, "It's as good as that guy, and he never makes jokes." ”

Ye Jinyu nodded silently again, "Dare to ask Mr. Daming?" ”

The old man ignored Ye Jinyu's question, and stared at Ye Jinyu with a pair of black eyes, which made Ye Jinyu's heart furious.

"Sir." Ye Jinyu called him, but he was also ignored.

"Do you believe Li Sui?" This question again. Ye Jinyu also couldn't answer, and the good memories of Li Sui in his mind were covered with a faint layer of sadness at this time. Sister Literature Network

After thinking about it again and again, Ye Jinyu finally replied, "Letter." ”

"Then ......," the old man hesitated for a moment, "does he believe you?" ”

"Faith." Ye Jinyu nodded again, his voice full of determination.

"Then why did he leave you here?" The old man raised his voice, which made Ye Jinyu's heart start to feel bottomless.

"It was a soldier who brought me in."

"What is the identity of that soldier?"

"Li Sui's soldiers...... ......" Ye Jinyu's voice began to tremble, and another person - to help him verify the cruel reality.

"When the throne changes, they should all be in a hurry to return to Beijing, who can they bring back?" The old man asked, this is up to Ye Jinyu himself to give that chilling answer.

"Dear...... ...... Guard"

Both of them were silent, and this was the closest thing they could have imagined to reality.

Guards...... Naturally, he is the one who knows his lord best......

After a long time, the old man continued, "You should remember what I said to you. ”

"You lied to me......" Ye Jinyu stubbornly stubborn.

The old man was obviously very dissatisfied with his distrust, and tried his best to come to Ye Jinyu, facing his handsome face, "Child, have you ever heard that 'a person is dying and his words are good'?" After speaking, the old man sighed, "I'm almost dead......

Ye Jinyu opened his mouth, but in the end he couldn't say anything, but he saw the old man get up and look up to the sky and howl at the small window that shone with faint sunlight.

"The world, eighty years; Taste sweet and bitter, go through ups and downs.

Sad people are divided, happy people are gathered; But it's rare, wishful thinking.

The ups and downs of the world, muddy nightmares; Knowing human nature, knowing people's hearts.

How can you speak vainly when you leave today? Only sighs, no one believes.

Sickness, pain rises and falls; Cash black, Qin Shiri.

Old man, I, look at this side; So it should be, so it is. ”

"Nonsense, it's bullshit, ha." The old man laughed loudly, but there were tears on his face.

His noise naturally attracted white foam, this time, he brought two jailers he found out of nowhere and forcibly dragged the old man away, since then, Ye Jinyu has never seen this old man, but vaguely heard: He is the old man of the previous dynasty.

……

Ye Jinyu had heard the last scream......

In the cell, it seemed to be the same as always, unable to distinguish between day and night, and unable to calculate the darkness of the time, so that Ye Jinyu didn't know what month and day it was.

But today, the meal was delivered late. He didn't have that trademark smile on his face, he was still so pale in a long robe.

Ye Jinyu had obediently changed his prison uniform, but he couldn't bear to look directly at the scars brought to him by the wooden thorns, as well as ...... That peach blossom.

"Eat." Bai Mo called Ye Jinyu, this was the greatest gift he could give.

"Where's the old man?" Ye Jinyu had one more mouth.

"Killed." Bai Mo replied, how breezy his voice was, how annoying his indifferent expression was.

"How can you do this?!" Ye Jinyu's always quiet voice rose more than a star and a half at this time, as if he was questioning Bai Mo, more like questioning someone he couldn't see now.

Bai Mo's expression was gloomy, and his face was so dark that he was about to drip water, "No one has ever dared to speak to me like that." With that, Bai Mo went straight away.

And this cruel sentence also brought disaster to Ye Jinyu, more precisely, a nightmare. After a while, the two jailers who had taken the old man away came and took him away.

……

The shackles made of black iron rubbed against the ground, making a "zila" sound; The narrow and long paths are filled with the blood that has accumulated over the years. Today, the dirt on the ground, which had been in contact with blood many times, was once again stained with scarlet.

Ye Jinyu had never seen this cell, this was a completely new place for him, and at the same time, for those souls who had been dead for a long time, this was the "home" where they cried day and night.

"Vomit-" Before he walked in, the rare breeze in this prison sent the almost dense and indissolvable blood into Ye Jinyu's nose, which made people feel extremely disgusting.

Bai Mo held the torch and slowly lit one of the braziers. These fires should have been able to illuminate this small place, but now...... It is dim, mixed with a lot of gloomy meanings.

"You couldn't have used it here......" This was the last thing Bai Mo said to Ye Jinyu, and before Li Jun could respond, Bai Mo walked straight outside, he understood that the two jailers knew what to do.

"Bang!" Ye Jinyu was savagely smashed on the wall by the two of them, the pain was severe, and as the back wound opened, blood flowed out of Ye Jinyu's body again.

He barely got up, but it was pitch black in front of him, and when he could see the arrangement in the prison, he smashed another punch on his small belly, with huge force, Ye Jinyu's body immediately curled up like a shrimp, shrunk in the corner of the wall, and spit out a mouthful of blood from his mouth.

The two obviously didn't want to let Ye Jinyu go.

One of them rudely grabbed Ye Jinyu's hair and pulled it hard, Ye Jinyu, who had just been picked up, was thrown to the ground again, and his head was broken and bleeding, when did the prince of the Tang Dynasty ever be so embarrassed? Although he is no longer ......
