Chapter 85: The Tanuki Exchanges the Prince
When this gang of impostors pushed three carts and slowly passed through the gate of the Imperial Prison, Zhu Youzhen's heart almost rose to his throat, for fear that a certain guard would be suspicious of the dung truck, which is also a typical manifestation of being a thief.
His fears turned out to be unfounded. The thick layer of manure on the car played a huge role, and the guards at the gate all pinched their noses and urged them to hurry through.
After passing the gate, Zhu Youzhen's heart was slightly put back into his stomach, and he finally got into the edict, and the plan had been half successful!
However, Qianhu still followed the old rules of the past, and sent a hundred households to supervise the whole process. Fortunately, Zhu Youzhen had already learned about this situation from Zhao Si in advance, and he did not panic, and immediately took action according to the pre-planned plan.
The plane structure of the edict is basically the front hall and the back yard. The antechamber is the place where the prisoners are interrogated, and it is relatively small; The backyard is where the prisoners are kept, and is divided into several inter-courtyards, each of which has a few to dozens of cells.
Each courtyard has a separate fence and can only be accessed through a large heavy wooden door. Outside the walls were heavily armed guards, and inside the walls, unarmed jailers. If you want to enter the cell, you must first have the guards outside search you, and after the inspection, the wooden door is unlocked inside and outside at the same time, let people in, and then lock the door at the same time. In addition, those who enter the courtyard must be accompanied by a military attache with more than 100 households in Jinyiwei.
At first glance, the system is unassailable. But Zhu Youzhen knows that no system is perfect, and the more sophisticated the system, once something goes wrong, the more serious the consequences.
According to the original plan, Zhu Youzhen first cleaned up the cross-courtyards where ordinary prisoners were held. There is no modern prison system, and the prisoners can only eat and drink in the cold cell, and there is no special toilet for urine and urine, so they can only be pulled to the ground.
This time, no one had come to clean up the garbage for days, and every cell was stinking. Zhu Youzhen and the others were also very serious, deliberately and unhurriedly cleaning up every cell. After a while, the amount of manure on the three carts increased a lot.
At the beginning, the brocade-clothed guard was still staring at them honestly. But after a long time, he also felt very bored. In addition, the stench in the cell was unpleasant, and no one wanted to stay in it for a long time. From the third cross-courtyard, the hundred households only followed them into the cross-courtyard, and no longer followed them into the cell.
By the time the red sun was setting, Zhu Youzhen and others had been cleaning for more than two hours, and the dung on the three carts was about to come out. At this time, the other cross-courtyards had been cleaned up, and only the last cross-courtyard was left, that is, the Tianzi prison where Yang Lian and others were imprisoned.
At this time, the hundred households had been following Zhu Youzhen and the others around for an afternoon, cold and hungry, and they had already scolded endlessly, just wanting to finish their work quickly and get off work. Therefore, he urged Zhu Youzhen vigorously: "Hurry up, hurry up!" Just sweep it! ”
It was this moment that Zhu Youzhen was waiting for. At this time, the guards are about to change shifts, and it is the time when the spirit is most relaxed. When they arrived at the cross-courtyard gate of the Tianzi Prison, the hundred households said to the guards on duty: "Don't check, let them go in quickly!" ”
This time, he didn't even enter the cross-courtyard door, but just stayed outside the cross-courtyard door and chatted with the guards.
After the gate was locked from both sides inside and out, Zhu You could not miss the opportunity to inspect it, and secretly glanced at several guards of Tengxiang's right guard.
Several guards were already waiting impatiently, and when they saw Zhu Youzhen give the signal to move, one of them immediately stepped forward silently, stretched out a pair of vice-like hands from behind, and firmly choked the neck of the jailer who had just locked the door.
The jailer had no idea that these leaning feet would attack him, and he was caught off guard and lifted his feet off the ground. He wanted to shout for help, but his throat was stuck, and he couldn't make a sound at all, so his face turned purple and his eyes were blood-red.
Zhu Youzhen's heart jumped wildly, and when he was afraid that the jailer would break free, the guard used a slight force on his hand, only to hear a crisp "click" sound, and the jailer had already crushed his throat and died instantly.
And the hundred households and guards outside the courtyard were chatting happily outside the door, completely unaware that an extremely bold rescue operation was being carried out in Tianzi Prison. is also considered to be the life of this hundred households, if he comes in, Zhu Youzhen will have to do it with him.
Several of the other Teng Xiang right guards moved together and dragged the dead body of the jailer into the cell. There was also a jailer at the door of the cell, who was dozing off in a chair, and went to see Hades in a daze.
At this time, there were no jailers in the Tianzi prison. Zhu Youzhen hurriedly asked his subordinates to disassemble the mezzanine on the cart and dragged out the dead bodies that had been hidden in advance. He took advantage of this and broke into the cell in three steps and two steps.
In the cell of this Tianzi prison, only six people including Yang Lian and Zuo Guangdou are now imprisoned. Zhu Youzhen looked along the room and saw that there was a person lying in each cell, his flesh and blood were blurred, unconscious, and it was difficult to identify him.
While he was hesitating, he suddenly heard a faint movement in the innermost cell.
He hurriedly ran over to take a look, but his legs were weak in fright, and he sat on the ground with a pop!
Inside the cell, Yang Lian was laboriously holding his shackles, concentrating on scraping the rotten flesh on his legs! The steel shackles scraped through the bones and squeaked in a frightening sound!
"Get out of the way, you're blocking the light of the candle." Yang Lian said in a faint, but very firm and calm tone.
"Lord Yang, you... You... You've suffered! Zhu Youzhen couldn't control his feelings anymore, and cried bitterly!
Yang Lian raised his head suddenly, and was surprised to find that the person who came was not a jailer, but the emperor's own brother and Zhu Youzhen, the king of letters who he had participated in many times!
"The King of Faint! What are you doing here?! Yang Lian suddenly came to his senses, his voice suddenly rose an octave, and he scolded, "Are you here to see Yang's jokes?" Let me tell you, Yang has long put life and death aside, and these tortures are just like tickling for me! I can't bring you and the eunuchs to justice in my life, and I will turn into a terrible ghost when I die, and strangle you traitors and villains who harm the society to death! ”
Zhu Youzhen was scolded by him loudly, and immediately woke up, and hurriedly whispered: "Silence!" Lord Yang, it's true that I'm the king of fainting, and you will scold slowly if you have the strength in the future. Now, I'm going to get you six out first. Please be a few aggrieved, lie in the dung truck, and don't make a sound! ”
Yang Lian was stunned when he heard this, but he still scolded loudly: "King Faint, what are your intentions? Long live the decree to take Yang Mousuo to prison, but you want to pull me out secretly, isn't that a protest? Thunder, rain and dew are all Jun's grace, I, Yang Lian, would rather die than do that unsubordinate, you died of this heart as soon as possible! Besides, I, Yang Lian, am an official of the imperial court, how can I hide in a dung truck? ”
Zhu Youzhen persuaded him for a long time, but Yang Lian just didn't comply. Zhu Youzhen saw that the time was pressing, and he couldn't help but feel angry, and said to a Teng Xiang right guard next to him: "Let him shut up!" ”
The guard stepped forward, smashed the wooden fence of the cell with one palm, and strode in.
Yang Lian just said angrily: "What do you want to do?" ”
The guard didn't answer, and struck Yang Lian's neck with a slap. The power of this palm was just right, and Yang Lian suddenly rolled his eyes and fainted.
As for Zuo Guangdou, Wei Dazhong and others, they didn't bother much, because these people had already passed out.
Zhu Youzhen watched the guards load the six people into the mezzanine of the cart, and dragged the dead bodies into the cell, and hurriedly ordered: "Ignite the fire!" ”
The guards took out six special long ropes that had been prepared and laid them out in a circle in the cell, which was somewhat similar to the floor heating pipes in the previous building. Once it is set, one end of the rope is lit with a fire-starter, and the flame begins to burn slowly along the rope.
The other end of the rope is on the body of the dead body. Flammable vegetable oil was poured around the dead bodies and elsewhere in the cells. These things are mixed in the dung, and they all come in handy at this time.
Seeing the flame ignited, Zhu Youzhen anxiously urged: "Hurry up!" ”
Everyone hurriedly pushed the cart and came to the gate of the cross-courtyard, shouting: "My lord, we have finished sweeping!" ”
"Fuck, such a grind!" The hundred households had no idea what was happening inside, and they were in a hurry to leave, and hurriedly ordered the guards to open the door. At this time, the sky was completely dark, and when the gate was opened, the hundred households didn't bother to take a look at the courtyard, but only urged Zhu Youzhen to hurry out.
Zhu Youzhen is more anxious than him, this plan of "changing the tanuki for the prince" has been successful by 90%, and he is about to go out at the end!
When he came to the gate, Zhu Youzhen suddenly found that the Jinyi Wei Qianhu who came had already gotten off work, and there was another Qianhu on duty at this time. This sudden change made Zhu Youzhen's heart beat wildly, and his face unconsciously showed a look of panic.
The thousand households were as careful as a hair, and when they saw that Zhu Youzhen's face was different, they immediately stopped the car and shouted: "Stop!" Give me a closer look! ”
What Zhu Youzhen feared the most finally happened!
Seeing that several guards pounced on them viciously, picked up their spears and were about to stab them in the car, Zhu Youzhen was also a little anxious, and hurriedly stopped loudly: "My lord, you can't stab!" As soon as you stab this dung truck, it will fall apart, and when the time comes, it will be difficult to clean up the stinky on the ground! ”
"What are you?" The Qianhu was furious and said, "You think you have the final say? Get out of the way for me, and talk nonsense, even a stab at you! ”
Seeing that he was about to go into a gang, Zhu You's heart was about to go bankrupt, and now he had to start Plan B as soon as possible! I had to bite the bullet, pointed behind the Qianhu, and shouted, "My lord, look at who the person behind you is!" ”
The Qianhu was also taken aback, and when he looked back, there was no one behind him. He couldn't help but be furious, and pulled out his saber with a "cangchang", and wanted to chop Zhu Youzhen.
Unexpectedly, a yin and yang strange voice really came from behind him: "Boy, your time of death is here!" ”
