Today's prison food in Yangzhou Mansion tastes good, at least the three people except Liu Xiao think it's good.

"Brother Xiu, do you seem to be eating deliciously?"

Liu Xiao, who had just used half a bucket of water to wash away the smell in his mouth, looked at Xi Yuanxiu who was eating sadly.

Seeing Liu Xiao's deliberately unwashed hand slowly stretched out towards his bowl, Xi Yuanxiu kicked that hand away, turned his head, and continued to eat at the two people in the opposite cell.

Liu Xiao didn't continue to be bored, he also picked up his own meal, squatted in the corner, and took the green vegetables on the plate as Xi Yuanxiu, first slammed it with chopsticks a few times, and then put it in his mouth and chewed viciously.

The gray-headed bird that Liu Xiao had been thinking about what he wanted to eat landed at the window facing Liu Xiao at this time, and looked at Liu Xiao's eyes, as if he was laughing at this little fat man holding a huge bowl in his hand.

Without waiting for Liu Xiao to beckon Xi Yuanxiu to come over and take a look, the gray-headed bird had already flown away, leaving nothing behind, Liu Xiao saw that the two people in the prison opposite didn't notice the bird that despised him, so he didn't say anything more.

Li Yuanhuan and the others on the opposite side had already eaten, but Bian Ying simply cleaned up the dishes and chopsticks to keep his Royal Highness tidy.

Li Yuanhuan still took out the handkerchief as before, wiped the corners of his mouth neatly, and then put it neatly in his arms, and the reason why he didn't wash it should be that he couldn't dry it in the prison.

Li Yuanhuan suddenly wanted to say something, and then he opened his mouth to Xi Yuanxiu, who was still eating, which was very different from him, because Li Yuanhuan never disturbed others when they were eating.

"Brother, what do you think of my father now, will he be sad and angry with me?"

Xi Yuanxiu was squatting on the ground at this time, eating noodles, and spit out a few peppers that had been eaten in his mouth, first looked at the bottom of the bowl with displeasure, and then looked at Li Yuanhuan with some doubts.

"How could His Highness ask such a thing?"

Xi Yuanxiu put the dishes and chopsticks aside, wiped the corners of his mouth with his cuffs, and asked with a smile.

Li Yuanhuan said with a gloomy expression: "Since my father made me a prince despite dissent, I have felt pressure, and I have always been afraid of making any mistakes in handling the government, so I am cautious in everything I say and do. ”

Xi Yuanxiu nodded, saying that Li Yuanhuan was right, although some people in the court said that His Royal Highness was a little timid in doing things, but there was never anything wrong.

Li Yuanhuan grabbed the cuffs with his hands and continued: "My father values me so much, but I actually became the mastermind behind this private salt case, presumably this matter has spread all over the capital with the help of my brother, I have shamed my father, I am really ashamed of my father!" ”

Xi Yuanxiu looked at Li Yuanhuan's current appearance, and didn't know how to comfort him, maybe just look at him like this.

He didn't know what His Majesty the Emperor was thinking now, he only knew that His Majesty must be even more angry than the King Xian imagined.

But not because of him, but the courtiers!

......

......

The dozen or so little eunuchs outside the Daming Palace are already a little weak at the moment, because these dozen or so people have been waiting here until now since the prince of the East Palace, a letter from thousands of miles of urgency was sent back to the palace.

The night in Chang'an was cold and windy, and the sun was blazing during the day, alternating between cold and warm, causing several little eunuchs who had not eaten to almost faint to the ground.

However, no one dared to move, because the father-in-law Zhang inside had not yet instructed a few of them to move.

One of the little eunuchs, who was farthest away from the Daming Palace, lowered his voice to the lowest and asked the one next to him: "His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has made a few of us miserable, and I knew that I wouldn't change shifts with that kid a few days ago!" ”

"Let's say a few words, if you want the people in the East Palace to hear it, you're going to lose your head!"

The little eunuch also knew that there was something wrong with what he said, so he looked left and right to see that no one else was paying attention to what he said, breathed a long sigh of relief, and then lowered his head and stopped talking.

His Majesty the Emperor in the Daming Palace looked at the folds that had been sent from the imperial study to his collapse, and his look of annoyance was self-evident.

These excerpts are nothing more than about how His Royal Highness should deal with the Xianwang, whether Yangzhou needs to appoint other ministers to go again, and there is also a criticism of the fault of His Majesty the Emperor who was crowned a prince back then.

"The ministers of the DPRK and China have such the same opinion on this matter, even those officials who previously supported the fourth child actually went to the court, saying that King Xian should be pressed back to Beijing to be beheaded."

Zhang Yong, who was on the side, heard His Majesty the Emperor speak, and hurriedly put down the dust in his hand and handed over a cup of tea.

"Your Majesty is dissatisfied with these ministers who fall with the wind?"

Zhang Yong said as he handed over the tea.

Li Wei couldn't see his joy or anger as he spoke just now, he calmly took the cup of tea and whispered: "In order to appease those ministers, I have already sent Chai Song to be with Xi Fang!" ”

"Besides, although the prince also shouted injustice for the king in the letter, who doesn't know that he wants to treat the king to death, but the king does deserve to die, more hateful than that Chai Song, and even wants to intervene in the matter of private salt, do you think he deserves to die?"

Zhang Yong half-knelt under Li Wei, packed up the notebooks, and replied in a low voice: "The slave loves to offer His Royal Highness very much, I don't know how to answer Your Majesty, besides, Jing Guoguo once said that eunuchs can't participate in politics, let alone talk about politics, so the old slave should make your Majesty some more tea!" ”

On that day, the crown prince used the eagle falcon of the Yangzhou military to send back to Beijing, all of which were to defend His Royal Highness the king, saying that he might have been deceived by the villain for a while, so he would make such a mistake, and hoped that His Majesty the Emperor would be aware of it.

But how could these people who understood not know the intention of his approach, this highness the crown prince not only increased his prestige, but also forced the matter of breaking the law to be dealt with as soon as possible.

In addition, the villain mentioned in the prince's letter is nothing more than the Chai Hou Ye standing behind the King Xian, I have to say that the prince is indeed forcing this Emperor Jing this time There is no way but to do it to this Chai Hou Ye.

However, he did not know that in the eyes of his father, the emperor was more disgusted than the king who was still in prison.

Li Wei thought about the two neighbors in Dali Temple at this time, and said to himself: "After so many years, have I done something wrong?" ”

Zhang Yong didn't reply, but just added a charcoal fire to Li Wei that should have been burned in the middle of winter.

With a sound of "retreat" from the Daming Palace, the dozen or so little eunuchs finally supported each other's tired bodies and left the place in Chang'an, which they thought was the most dangerous.

......

......

In the kitchen of the Yangzhou Mansion, Zhou Wenbin and several people have successfully mixed in, which is also thanks to the fact that the Yangzhou Mansion is really a little lax.

He took a few copper plates and gave them to the official at the back door, and went in as simple as that, without any further words.

Zhou Wenbin carried the dishes to the corner of the kitchen of the Yangzhou Mansion, while letting his attendant observe the road from here to the Yangzhou Mansion Prison.

Zhou Wenbin, who hadn't done this for more than ten years, felt a little sore back at this time, and he kept urging in his mouth, but he didn't dare to make too much noise, for fear of being discovered.

And Najia Daya and Cao Cheng were piled up in the corner by Zhou Wenbin with a cart full of vegetables at this time, leaving only a mouth for the two to breathe.

"My lord, now that the officials in the palace have gone to the front yard, they can just go over now!"

The attendant said as he entered the house from outside the kitchen.

Zhou Wenbin covered the two people and the pile of vegetables with a sackcloth, and then walked with his attendant towards the prison in the Yangzhou Mansion.

The two of them, who hadn't seen half a figure all the way, were just about to enter the prison when they were stopped by the jailer who was napping at the door.

"What do you two do?"

The jailer asked, leaning half-against the wall, looking Zhou Wenbin up and down.

Zhou Wenbin's attendant held the food box in his hand and said with a smile: "Send some lunch to the four people in the prison, I don't know if you have eaten?" ”

The jailer nodded, then suddenly shook his head again and said, "How do I remember that the prison meals of these four prisoners have been delivered today, you two are?" ”

Zhou Wenbin's attendant hurriedly knocked on his head and said with a smile: "Look at my memory, the two of us are here to clean up the leftovers we have eaten, please forgive me, the two of us have just been here for a few days, if you tell others, we will have to go back to the countryside to farm!" ”

The jailer looked a little dazed, and he didn't bother to take care of the two, so he waved his hand and let Zhou Wenbin and the others in.

After entering the prison, Zhou Wenbin gasped for breath at this time, he didn't know how to explain if he was discovered, he had never deceived anyone in his life, and he had never even said anything to make children happy.

His attendant was staring at the door, fearing that the blind jailer would burst in.

The two soon came to the prison of the four people, and the four of them were closing their eyes to recover their spirits at this time, maybe Liu Xiao was indeed sleeping.

Zhou Wenbin held the iron rod with his hand and called softly: "Lord Xi, wake up, I have something to hand over to you!" ”

After Xi Yuanxiu opened his eyes and saw Zhou Wenbin's face, he was not as surprised as Zhou Wenbin imagined, but shook his head, closed his eyes, and did not reply to his words.

Zhou Wenbin's attendant called Li Yuanhuan and the others, and the two of them actually reacted in the same way as Xi Yuanxiu, which made Zhou Wenbin and the others puzzled.

Zhou Wenbin felt that these people must have been severely tortured by Xue Luping, and their heads were broken, and they couldn't even recognize themselves.

"Master Xi, I have that Xu Shaoxia's thing for you, and I invite you to take a look!"

Zhou Wenbin no longer waited for Xi Yuanxiu to respond to him, he directly threw the crumpled origami on the straw in front of Xi Yuanxiu.

"Lord Zhou, if you had joined the army back then, you must have been a qualified herald now!"

The sound coming from the deepest part of the prison shocked Zhou Wenbin and his attendants.

Xue Luping has been waiting for the two of them here for a long time!
