Chapter 173: An even more hateful Zhao Hao
Dengzhou is the most prosperous port in the north, there are countless ships docking or leaving here every day, and the flow of people on the wharf is tens of thousands, especially among them, there are many Koreans, Japanese people, etc., these people are barbaric and often make trouble, bringing a lot of public security problems to Dengzhou, so many people are arrested for committing various crimes every day, which also leads to Dengzhou having to build a large prison to hold prisoners.
Dengzhou Prison is located in the north of the city, the whole body is built of bricks and cement, very strong, and there is also an army stationed not far from the prison, in addition to being responsible for the security of the prison, in wartime this army can also enter the prison, with the help of the prison's strong city wall defense, in order to disperse the pressure of the main city.
However, during this period of time, the army originally stationed nearby in Dengzhou Prison was transferred, replaced by four more elite forbidden troops, and these four forbidden troops surrounded Dengzhou Prison from four directions, and the vehicles and pedestrians who usually enter and exit the prison must be checked by the forbidden army, and the slightest suspicion will be taken away for detailed investigation, until the suspicion on the body will be released, it can be said that the guards of Dengzhou Prison have increased more than ten times than usual, and it is very difficult for even a bird to get out of the prison. Not to mention that the prisoners inside wanted to escape.
It was already the middle of the night, and the prisoners in the prison had already quieted down amid the shouts and curses of the guards, but the guards outside the prison did not relax at all, and huge torches were burning on the walls outside the prison, illuminating the prison all around, and there were also soldiers on the high corner tower who were looking around with binoculars, and they did not miss any suspicious points.
But at this moment, I suddenly heard the sound of horses' hooves on the street outside the prison, and then I saw two young people coming to the prison under the protection of a team of guards, and the guards outside the prison just wanted to come forward to intercept them, but when they saw the tokens shown by the guards. Immediately retreated, because the other party was holding a token given by His Majesty, and those holding this kind of token could even enter and leave His Majesty's dormitory freely, let alone here.
After passing through one level after another, the carriage was getting closer and closer to the prison, but Zhao Xin in the carriage said to Zhao Jia in front of him with a look of embarrassment: "Big brother." I think it's okay, you haven't come back from bypassing most of the world and haven't had time to rest, so it's better for us to go back and eat something and sleep first, and wait until tomorrow to recuperate and come to see Zhao Tong and them. ”
For Zhao Xin's persuasion, Zhao Jia, who was sitting in the carriage, didn't even react at all, just stared straight out of the car window, and the expression on his face was very calm, but Zhao Xin always felt that there was an angry volcano hidden under his eldest brother's calm appearance, and when he saw Zhao Tong and them. I don't know what kind of anger will erupt, in case the eldest brother really kills Zhao Tong and the others in anger, then there will be no way to explain to Zhao Xu tomorrow, but unfortunately Zhao Jia didn't listen to his persuasion at all.
In the end, Zhao Xin's carriage finally entered the prison, and the officials in the prison were also startled when they heard the identities of Zhao Jia and Zhao Xin, and hurriedly ran out to greet them in person, but Zhao Jia didn't have any nonsense. just ordered the other party to take him to see Zhao Tong and Zhao Jun and others, and Zhao Xin next to him showed his token again. So the officials of the prison did not dare to slack off, and hurriedly took them to the core of the prison, where all the important criminals of the imperial court were imprisoned, among which Zhao Tong and others were not only royal, but also guilty of treason, so they were all held here alone.
may be because Zhao Tong and others are repeat offenders. Therefore, the area where they are being held is completely isolated, and there are heavy soldiers around them, even if they are Zhao Jia and Zhao Xin, they are still heavily interrogated if they want to enter.
After finally entering the core area of this prison, I saw that the number of cells here was not large. There are about twenty rooms in two rows, but there are prisoners in each cell, when these people saw Zhao Jia and Zhao Xin's brothers, many of them lowered their heads in shame, and at the same time, Zhao Jia also found some familiar faces from these people, which also made him snort heavily, and at the same time lazily ignored these chaotic ministers and thieves, and strode towards the cell where Zhao Tong and Zhao Jun were held.
But before Zhao Jia could take a few steps, when he saw that he was about to arrive at the cell where Zhao Tong and the two were being held, he suddenly saw someone in the cell next to him suddenly pounce on the iron fence, and at the same time shouted to Zhao Jia: "Jia'er! Is it you, hurry up and save the second uncle! ”
Zhao Jia also heard the prestige, but saw that the person who spoke was Zhao Hao, who was dressed in prison clothes, and looked at him with his hands stretched out of the fence with a look of expectation on his face. But Zhao Jia was furious when he saw the other party: "You have done a good thing yourself, and you still have the face to beg me, if it weren't for your rebellion, how could Brother Xu become like that!" ”
"Jia'er, you have to believe the second uncle, this matter really has nothing to do with me, and I didn't know at all when the rebellion happened, so I was wronged!" Zhao Hao shouted loudly at this time, and even tears and snot flowed down together, looking really pitiful.
However, as soon as Zhao Hao's words fell, Zhao Xin next to Zhao Jia snorted coldly and said: "My good second uncle, you are still wronged at this time, so you can explain, what happened to those letters in Zhao Tong and Zhao Jun's hands, did you write them yourself?" ”
"I ...... I was just confused, and I didn't really want to rebel! Zhao Hao said with a handful of snot and tears at this time.
"What's going on?" Zhao Jia asked in a low voice when he heard this.
"Big brother, our second uncle did not know about the rebellion, but afterwards we found a lot of letters from Zhao Hao and Zhao Jun, many of which were written by Zhao Hao himself, and the content of the letters was also to instigate them to rebel, and Zhao Tong and Zhao Jun also admitted that the reason for the rebellion was indeed instigated by Zhao Hao, so although he did not directly participate in the rebellion, he was more hateful than Zhao Tong and Zhao Jun!" Zhao Xin said hatefully at this time, he had already checked those letters personally, and they were indeed written by Zhao Hao, and he was definitely not wronged.
"Hateful!" Zhao Jia also glared at Zhao Hao fiercely when he heard this, and at the same time felt that Zhao Hao was more hateful than Zhao Tong and Zhao Jun, but it was a pity that he was his elder, even if he committed a crime, he should not do anything to him, it is better to wait for his father to come back in the future, and then hand him over to his father to deal with!
Thinking of this, Zhao Jia snorted coldly and continued to walk forward, but Zhao Hao did not give up at this time and shouted for help, but unfortunately Zhao Jia and Zhao Xin didn't bother to pay attention to him, and took a few steps forward, and finally came to the two adjacent cells, which are the places where Zhao Tong and Zhao Jun are held.
