Chapter 244: The Criminal Department Prison

Yan Yu was busy in the palace for a day, and he wanted to return to live in the palace of His Royal Highness King Zheng at night, but he was now a good favor, and he didn't go to Beijing when he came to Beijing, but he landed in King Zheng's mansion, which also wanted to arouse the suspicion of the eunuchs.

But it is the scenery of the outside world, the Tang Dynasty in just two years, not only defeated the invasion of the northern Zhou people, but also in Yanyu under the strong impetus of the local reform, the national strength is great, although the local rebellion can not be underestimated, but once suppressed, most of them are some rabble and some kind innocent people who do not know what, let go of the masses, don't go to trouble again, these people who provoked the head also fled to the mountains, and became the king of the mountain.

King Wu, who was imprisoned in the prison of the Criminal Department, has not seen the light of day for more than two years. But in the long run, when the world did not explicitly condemn him for his son's rebellion, but did not dare to let him go, this made many people in the court neither dare to give up the eldest son of the emperor in prison easily, nor dare to contact His Royal Highness King Zheng too much, after all, His Royal Highness King Wu and His Royal Highness King Zheng are very aggressive, one is incognito, but everyone knows the reason for this, but it is not easy to say.

In the past two years, although Yan Yu is not in Beijing, he has not been in contact with His Royal Highness King Zheng, not only His Royal Highness King Zheng has been sending many of his favorite wine-making exercises to Chizhou on a regular basis, Yan Yu is also only worried about the safety of King Zheng, so he has stationed a pro-army team of 200 people in King Zheng's mansion for a long time, day and night.

Yan Yu returned to King Zheng's mansion, and as soon as he entered the door, he saw a man in white standing in the courtyard, and then approached and said with a smile, "It's so late at night, Brother Zheng doesn't go to rest, but he is standing here, isn't he waiting for me......"

"Brother Wang is back so soon......" King Zheng also smiled when he heard this, and turned to Yan Yu and asked, "Today's debriefing, can it be smooth?" ”

"Shun dang!" Yan Yu stepped forward, standing side by side with King Zheng, with his hands behind his back, and a trace of relief appeared on his face, "Now Your Majesty is very good to me, not only riding with me in the forbidden garden in the palace, but today I don't know how, but also gave me a big surprise, allowing me to ride a ......horse in the palace."

"Horseback riding?" King Zheng was shocked when he heard this, "This is an honor that others have never had, except for today, you are the only one who can ride a horse in the forbidden garden of the palace......" and he breathed a soothing tone, and glanced at Yanyu who showed a burst of smugness on his face, "But you are also capable, in a short period of time, let Chizhou, let the entire Lingnan Road change its old appearance into a new look, the Son of Heaven does not value you, who can he pay attention to?" ”

"That's not right...... Yan Yu raised his eyes to look at the bright moon in the sky, and said thoughtfully, "Your Majesty is not valuing me, but the rewards and punishments are clear, and I have to do it as a last resort." Think about it, I was not a Tang minister, how could I get into the eyes of His Majesty, to put it bluntly, it was through the relationship of His Royal Highness Bai Qingyu that I entered the Tang family's career, so Your Majesty didn't want people like me to stay in Beijing, so I was involved in the disputes of the imperial court......"

"And you, as soon as you entered the Tang family's career, you gave your father a ......"

"That's right......" Yan Yu sighed, "I saved his life, but I also broke his heart......"

"Big brother doesn't know what happened in prison now, in fact, I really ......" King Zheng said hurriedly, but was stopped by Yan Yulie's fierce eyes.

"Whether you want to or not, you are always the blood and blood of the Tang Dynasty. Even if you don't want to compete with your brother, you endure everywhere, and finally end up with the prodigal reputation of a merry prince, in the end, you don't want to be rectified. But it is the temperament of this King Wu who is the most suspicious, once he ascends the throne one day, I am afraid that you and I will not be able to save our lives......"

"Could it be that serious?"

"How not?" Yan Yu asked rhetorically, "You are only dedicated to art, but you are not very proficient in these tricks, with my understanding of King Wu, his rebellious heart has long been there, if I hadn't arranged it early, I am afraid that he is sitting on the dragon chair now, and you and I have already become dry bones in the grave, where can we ......come from at this moment?"

Yan Yu said, and said with a self-deprecating smile, "Such a person, he can do such a thing of killing his father so happily, and he is worried that he will be soft-handed when killing his brother......."

"This ......" King Zheng immediately coughed lightly twice when he heard this, his sword eyebrows furrowed, and he said hurriedly, "Then now that he has been locked up in the prison of the Criminal Department for two years, and his father has always refused to condemn him, is he still ......?"

"I'm afraid that he will have the day to turn over...... Yan Yu's eyes flashed a trace of forbearance, so fast that even King Zheng, who had been watching him, didn't seem to notice it, and then smiled slowly, "No, the elite of the two hundred troops I sent have lived in your mansion for two years, what is it, Brother Wang naturally understands in his heart......

"It's better to kill him......"

"What did you say?" As soon as the words came out of King Zheng's mouth, he was surprised when he heard the words, as if this artistic genius had never said such a strong bloody word in his mouth, "You ......"

"Since it's either you die or I live, then it must be my life...... King Zheng became more and more excited, turned around and clasped his arms tightly around Yan Yu's shoulders, "Brother Wang, you are the only one in the world who can save me now...... I don't want to die, you know, I'm young, I'm still drinking, I'm painting, I'm ......"

"Brother Wang, what's wrong?" Yan Yu looked at King Zheng's trembling expression, replied to him steadily, and then stopped his hands, held his hands in his hands and patted them, "Don't worry, with my Li Yanyu here, I will never let His Royal Highness King Zheng make any mistakes, and the current Zheng Wangfu is also heavily guarded, besides, these guards I selected for Brother Wang are all masters, and ordinary people can't get close to you...... As long as you stay in the house and recite poetry and paint with peace of mind......"

"But, but we...... You can't ......."

"I see what you mean!" Yan Yu sighed, and looked at King Zheng with a confident and steady smile, "This kind of thing can only be done slowly, and we can't be in a hurry, but we must subdue the tiger before it shows its minions......"

"Report ......"

As soon as Yanyu's words fell, it was a guard outside the door who came to report closely, and saw that the two were talking in the front courtyard, and hurriedly stopped talking.

"But it's okay......" Yan Yu glanced at the soldier.

"Lord Qiqi, the people we sent in the prison of the Criminal Department spread the news that there was a sudden fire in the prison of the Criminal Department just now, and now the fire is raging, and many prisoners have escaped by taking advantage of the chaos......"

"What did you say!" Yan Yu trembled when he heard this, "As expected......"

"Brother Wang, what is this?"

"Brother Zheng Wang is in the mansion with peace of mind, I'll go and see ......" Yan Yu immediately passed on the general's order, and the team of thirty or fifty people immediately hit the street and went straight to the prison of the Criminal Department along the alleys on both sides of the Xishui Market.
