Chu He's words undoubtedly ripped off the last nerve called 'reason' in Zhao Heng's mind.

Zhao Heng was already furious because of Zhou Yanran's death, and was finally persuaded by Zhao Xi, but he didn't expect to hear Chu He say such things now; On the spot, the already angry male lion became angry again, picked up the long sword on the ground and slashed in the direction where Chu He was standing, but the sword was slashed on the wooden door of the cell where Chu He was held.

Seeing Chu He standing in the cell without pain, Zhao Heng rushed in and tore his heart, only to see him waving the long sword in his hand, describing him as crazy and irritable, and suddenly turned around and put the long sword on the neck of the old king, opened a pair of red eyes, and roared: "Open this prison door for this king!" ”

Although the old king said that he was afraid of Zhao Heng's character as the demon king of the mixed world, when he sent people here, the Son of Heaven mentioned in his oracle that no one could easily approach people without permission; Right now, His Royal Highness King Heng is obviously crazy, if he opens the prison door, if these two noble masters scuffle, no matter who is injured, the first unlucky person in the end is also his powerless cell leader.

Therefore, in the face of King Heng who was coerced with a sword, the old king immediately looked bitterly at His Royal Highness King Xi beside him, and asked for help: "Lord Wang, the little one is just ordered to take care of the prisoners, and he doesn't dare to open the cell at will, and he also asks the prince to save the little one, and persuade His Royal Highness King Heng." ”

Zhao Heng heard the words of the old king, and the long sword in his hand approached the old king's erection neck a few points, the sharp edge of the sword was sharp, and it scratched the old king's neck at once, and the bright red blood dripped down the cold light of the long sword like flowing water.

Realizing that he was injured, Lao Wangtou screamed like killing a pig, knelt on the ground as soon as his legs were weak, and kept begging Zhao Heng for mercy.

Seeing that Zhao Heng began to make trouble again, Zhao Xi stepped forward to stop it, but before he could open his mouth to shout out the angry reprimand, he heard a burst of urgent footsteps from the corridor behind him, and then, an angry shout mixed with majesty shouted from the mouth of the visitor: "Zhao Heng!" Have you made enough trouble! ”

Hearing this familiar voice, Zhao Heng and Zhao Xi knew that the third brother was here.

After Zhao Ling came out of Emperor Showa's Tai'an Palace, he almost didn't stop going to the Criminal Department to bring Luo Cheng out, and told Luo Cheng what happened in the palace on the way, and then the two of them hurriedly came to the prison; It's just that I didn't expect that there was already a commotion in the prison this day.

Zhao Heng didn't know about the conversation between Zhao Ling and Emperor Showa in the palace, so the moment he saw Luo Cheng appear, his expression was also a little stunned, but he quickly reacted, and stepped forward to salute his future father-in-law: "Lord Luo is also here." ”

Luo Cheng knew very well that King Xi was treating him so politely now because of his daughter, and he also knew that King Xi was not the kind of arrogant and domineering master, so now seeing that his future son-in-law respected him so much, Luo Cheng's heart was naturally more and more satisfied, and even when he came to this prison, he didn't feel that the air here was humid and oppressive.

It's just that right now, it's not a good time for their son-in-law to catch up, everyone can see that the prince is in full anger at this moment, and the little ancestor who made the prince angry is jumping up and down like a badger, and he doesn't know what he's doing.

Zhao Heng looked at the two people who rushed to stop him in frustration, his heart was about to explode, and the grievances in his heart were almost suffocating him; Now looking at the disappointed eyes of the third brother looking at him, he is more like an aggrieved child, holding a long sword and crying.

"Third brother, did you hear me? What was this bastard talking about, he told me personally, if he did it again, he would kill Yanran; The third brother, it is obvious that he did something wrong, but he did not repent and admit his mistakes, and he still stuck to his own opinions; Third brother, tell me, in the face of such a cold-hearted murderer, can you continue to protect it? ”

Zhao Ling still doesn't know why Chu He killed Zhou Yanran himself, but with his understanding of Chu He, he is definitely not the kind of person who kills innocents indiscriminately; What's more, the identity of the person he killed is still so different.

Therefore, he thinks that there is a hidden secret in this, and this hidden secret is the real reason why Chu He had to do it.

Looking at Zhao Heng, who was crying sadly, Zhao Ling tried his best to restrain his temper, and when he came up, he snatched the long sword from his hand, and saw the old king's expression of escaping death, and said to Zhao Heng: "Old Jiu, the third brother promised you that he would give you an explanation, how about it?" ”

"Will it? It's too late for the third brother to protect him, is it really possible to give me an explanation? ”

Zhao Ling said solemnly: "Because of personal feelings, I do want to protect my brother-in-law, but I am even more unwilling to let my relatives bear the charge of 'murderer' without knowing it...... He really killed people because of his violent heart, and the third brother promised you that he would definitely give you a satisfactory result. ”

Zhao Xi didn't expect the third brother to suddenly say such a promise to Zhao Heng, so he was a little anxious on the spot, and hurriedly stepped forward, his eyes were nervous and said, "Third brother ......"

Zhao Ling knew what Zhao Xi was going to say, and before he could open his mouth to say those words, he glanced at him, stopped him with his eyes, and said, "I thought a lot all the way out of the palace, and found that the thought I had all along was wrong; We suddenly heard the news of Zhou Guifei's tragic death, and our inner thoughts were either to protect Chu He, who killed Zhou Guifei, or to kill Chu He to take revenge; In our hearts, no one thought of the most important question, that is, why did Chu He kill Zhou Yanran? Judging by Chu He's gentlemanly style, how could he do such a thing? But now that it has been done, it proves that there must be a reason why it has to be done; This reason can be so powerful that he is desperate to kill, and it can be so terrifying that he must die to defend it, naturally, this reason is also why Zhou Yanran wants to die, and Chu He has the only chance to be. ”

"Lao Jiu, the third brother knows that you are very thoughtful about Zhou Yanran, and you know that what you are worried about is why she died a tragic death in no apparent way; Now, the third brother is here to help you find this answer, you know the third brother's personality, if you can say it, you will definitely do it; Regarding this matter, are you willing to believe the third brother again? ”

Looking at Zhao Ling, whose eyes were burning, Zhao Heng hesitated, it was obvious that he was completely moved by Zhao Ling this time.

In fact, he knew very well in his heart that Zhou Yanran was not a good woman, she killed Luo Yao, and also killed her third sister-in-law, relying on her father's favor in the palace, and even quietly executed many of her opponents, such a woman with blood on her hands would have such an end, and it was not too wronged.

But as the third brother said, the reason why he was so painful was because he couldn't accept it.

Is it because she has made mistakes, even if she is killed for no reason, she deserves it? She and him were once husband and wife, even if it was an endless shame for her, but for him, it was also a little affectionate; When the Zhou family abandoned her, and everyone thought she deserved to die, at least he was unwilling to deny her easily.

Otherwise, wouldn't it be too pitiful for her to have nothing!

Right now, hearing the third brother say such things, Zhao Heng knew that this was the biggest promise and concession that the third brother could make for him; He has never had much ambition and no strong brains, but fortunately, he knows how to see the situation most clearly.

Right now, he wants Chu He's life is afraid that it is impossible, well, since everyone thinks that he Chu He is a gentleman, there must be a reason for killing Zhou Yanran, then, he will listen to it, what is this reason.

Zhao Heng took a deep breath to stabilize his fluctuating grief, and after glancing at Chu He, who was standing quietly and silent in the cell, he fell on Zhao Ling's body and said, "Third brother, since you have said so, then Xiao Jiu will listen to you once; I will leave Chu He's life with you first, if he can't give Xiao Jiu a reason to convince himself to forgive him, then don't blame Xiao Jiu for doing something that you don't like the third brother, and make him pay for Yanran's death. ”

After speaking, Zhao Heng took a deep look at the group of people who were protecting Chu He, and then his face was cold, and he strode towards the outside of the prison.

Zhao Xi looked at Zhao Heng who was leaving, and wanted to catch up and comfort him, but looking at this kid's ugly face, it was not good to come up and touch his nose again, so he could only give him time to think about it slowly and calm down.

When the old Wang saw Zhao Heng leaving, he hurriedly hunched his waist to catch up, and respectfully sent the bad-tempered uncle away.

When sending Zhao Heng to the gate of the prison, Zhao Heng stood in the dazzling sunlight and said to the old king behind him: "Cell leader, you have to take a good look at the prison, don't let Chu He die here without knowing it, his life, even if he has to be explained, must be explained in the hands of this king." No matter what, I can't let him run away. ”

Although the old king is not very smart, he is not stupid; I also know that Chu Shizi has caused a big disaster this time, otherwise he would not have alarmed these noble masters to come to his filthy and obscure place at the same time.

At the moment, it was not easy to send away the demon king in front of him, the old king endured the pain in his neck, laughed with him, and said: "Don't worry, don't worry, this small prison is the most strictly managed place, not to mention running a prisoner, even if it is a fly, it is difficult to slip away from this prison unconsciously." ”

Listening to the old king's good words, Zhao Heng let out a cold snort, followed the carriage when he got up, and went all the way.

In the prison, with Zhao Heng's departure, it finally quieted down.

Zhao Ling looked at Chu He, who was standing in the prison with a calm and indifferent expression, and had many words that he wanted to say from his mouth, but he swallowed those words, and finally said to Chu He: "Big brother, Yue'er knows that something happened to you, and she is about to cry in the palace; If I hadn't stopped her, I'm afraid she would have broken into here alone at this time. ”
