CHAPTER XXV
"The Ye family is the remnant of the previous dynasty, secretly forming a private party in the court, plotting to restore the country, I am under the command of the new emperor, and all the insiders of the Ye Mansion will be pressed into the prison, and after the verification of Dali Temple, I will make a decision."
I have never seen Meng Le in an iron robe, the original chic and handsome face is born with a different kind of beauty because of a suit of armor, if it weren't for her cold voice at this moment, proud of the head of the army, I might praise her extraordinary demeanor.
"Meng Le, can you treat my father politely for the sake of your acquaintance, he is old and can't bear the weight of the shackles, and I will wear him."
In the firelight, a sneer appeared in Meng Le's eyes, and with a finger, a stone armored soldier walked out of the crowd, holding a discus-like iron cuff in his hand, I stretched out my left hand, he was handcuffed, I stretched out my right hand, he was also handcuffed, and then shook the iron cuff, for fear that he would not cuff me strongly.
"Ye Hao, you have your shackles, they have theirs."
At this time, Meng Le is no longer the Meng Le I know, the Meng Le who used to tease the maid and pull me to masturbate is gradually blurred like a reflection in the water.
"Meng Le ..........."
Meng Le laughed lightly, only to see her drive forward, look down at me and say, "The daughter of a mere untouchable, there are a lot of requirements, and Miss Ben has never turned out to be such a brazen person." ”
Great sadness spread in my heart, and I heard myself say coldly word by word, "I have never seen such a cold-blooded and ruthless person." ”
"Smack!"
I only felt a numbness on the left side of my face, then a hot pain, a warm flow into my neck, and a fishy sweet breath wrapped around the cold night.
Meng Le threw the bloodstained long whip on the ground and said lightly, "Good whip, it's a pity it's dirty." ”
Meng Lego snorted, "Wang's Qingluan is there?" ”
In front of everyone, Erniang stepped forward, knelt down, and said respectfully, "My subordinates are here." ”
I turned my eyes to look at my father, only to see him raise his head suddenly, quietly watching her every move, and the shock in his eyes was beyond words.
Meng Le raised his voice and said, "Wang's Qingluan, you have infiltrated the Ye family for many years, found out the evidence that the Ye Mansion was plotting to usurp the throne and intended to restore the country, and also found out the henchmen who secretly colluded with the Ye Mansion, and did your best for the country. ”
Erniang lifted the cat-sized child high and knelt on the ground, "Subordinate Xie Xindi Longen, long live the new emperor, long live, long live!" ”
An armored soldier stood up to pick up the child and stood beside Meng Le.
The woman, whom I call Erniang, took out a bulging purse from her sleeve and raised it above her head to say word by word.
"The subordinates also searched for the private seals of the descendants of the royal family of the previous dynasty in the secret passage of Yefu, as well as the spirit card of the first emperor of Lexu."
The man in black who had been standing behind her stood up, and in his arms was the golden tablet of Emperor Lexu, Meng Le stretched out his hand, and someone stepped forward to pick it up.
I only heard Meng Le say, "You did a very good job, I will report to the emperor truthfully and reward him separately." ”
"Miss Xie Meng! The subordinates have one more thing to say. ”
"Say!"
"The eldest lady of Yefu had a fetal gas, and fainted after giving birth, Lang Zhong said that she couldn't stand it at the moment, and her subordinates were also worried that if she returned to the west on the way to the prison, the world would criticize, and the new emperor would ascend the .........throne."
"Then put her in Ye Mansion, and once she is convicted, she will be solved on the spot!"
"Yes."
Meng Le pulled the horse rope and raised his voice, "Collect the troops and press the remnants of the former dynasty into the prison." ”
The two armor kings stood beside me and pushed me impatiently to keep up with the team, and my heart eased a little, but fortunately, my mother was okay for the time being.
I heard a storyteller tell a story about the imprisonment of a good man in Liangshan in a teahouse, and I always remember the sentence in the story describing the prison, saying that it was a copper wall and an iron wall, and the gloomy atmosphere was heavy, and the cry of the devil was echoing in the prison from time to time, and one foot in it was like a cold kiln in winter.
I wore shackles and walked step by step into the heavenly prison that the world said was like a yin division, and I patrolled the legendary heavenly prison, except that the gate was higher and the guards were more, there was nothing special about it.
Walking into the gate, a cool shade hit you, the sun was already out outside, the air became hot, and it was much cooler when you came in, these jailers were blessed people, it was much more comfortable to stay in the prison than to go to the summer resort, not only that, but also the moon to take, which can be described as a double benefit.
As soon as my father and the others entered the prison, they were separated and detained, and the jailer led me into the depths of the prison with chains, where there was a hidden staircase, and there were several small rooms under the stairs, and the jailer pushed me into one of them, and there was no furnishings on all four sides, and in the center there was a boxy cage.
The cage was very similar to the cage of the beast in the wild market, but this cage was a little small, even a lion had to be a minor to stuff it into, and the cage was full of iron thorns, and there were black and red blood stains around the cage, although the blood stains had dried up, there was still a disgusting evil around it.
I sighed, the dungeon was really a little less hygienic.
The jailer opened the shackles in my hand, turned around and opened the iron cage again, and pushed me to the cage and said, "Get in!" ”
I squatted in the cage, hugged my knees, bowed my head into a ball, and barely saved some distance between the iron thorns
I hugged myself tightly and curled up in a ball, sighing bitterly, if I knew that there would be today's situation, I would have lost weight early, so that I could relax better.
As soon as the cell door was closed, the room instantly fell into darkness, only there was an egg-sized outlet under the door, even so I didn't know when it was night and when it was day, only that my legs were sore and numb, numb and sore, and then I moved a few times, and the pain of thorns in my back instantly came from behind.
Whether to make a sieve or a stuffy egg, I thought about it and finally chose the latter.
I don't know how long later, the air outlet flashed, and then there was the sound of unlocking and pushing the door, and at the same time a faint light pushed in, I turned my head to the side, only to see a pair of clean and bright embroidered shoes slowly walking.
The embroidered shoes were embroidered with a pair of vivid colorful butterflies, and the tip of the shoe was decorated with a round pearl, which shimmered in the dark room.
"I really don't know if I should call you Queen Mother or Miss Meng now?"
Meng Le snorted lightly and said coldly, "Ye Hao, what are you talking about?" ”
I cautiously turned my neck with some cramps, sighed and said, "The fabric on your shoes is Nanjin, and the embroidery is from the embroidery lady in the palace. ”
"He is worthy of being the descendant of the Ender Guard, and he is really smart."
The pair of noble embroidered shoes turned in front of me, only to hear a chuckle above my head: "I have always looked at you unpleasantly, but now this scene is extremely pleasing to the eye, so that the iron cage can match you." ”
"If you look at me as unpleasant, why should you befriend me and call each other sisters."
The cold words fell again, and I only heard her say, "If it weren't for my father forcing me to befriend you, do you think you would have this blessing?" But it's also very beneficial to make friends with you, then the remnants of the previous dynasty, Liu Sanye, and Mrs. Wen, if it weren't for your Ye Mansion, we really wouldn't be able to find out! ”
The embroidered shoes turned around again, only to hear her sneer, and mocked, "I have never understood how you are such a pariah son, how it is worth the trouble of others for you, my father is like this, and he is so .........."
The voice was deep, and suddenly became sharp, "Every time I see you, I resist the urge to tear you off the chair, smile at you, talk to you, eat together, for so many years, I have wronged myself for so long, let a civilian girl be on an equal footing with me." Finally, I waited for the day when I didn't have to act, you are so good now, seeing you now, the anger that has always been unpleasant in my heart has finally smoothed. ”
It turned out that it was not that Meng Le had become ruthless, but that what I had seen before was false, if it weren't for the space where the iron thorns were a finger away from me, I would have looked up and remembered her true face.
"If I am so unsightly, why do you come to this prison yourself! Although it's cooler here, the Meng Mansion is not short of silver to buy ice, so the queen mother, you better go! ”
"You really think I'm willing to come to see you, huh!"
The embroidered shoes turned to the door, and after the heavy sound of the door closing, there was the sound of a thin lock, and the room turned into night, and the scenes of the past in the darkness were replayed in my mind like watching the lights.
Since I saw the spirit card of Emperor Lexu, I have been mentally prepared to go to prison with my family, but I ...... After all, I still can't rest assured that Ah Huan, if he hadn't heard the news that Ye Fu had been copied, would he be angry again that I didn't go to see him. If you know the news, will you be in a hurry and hurt your body? My thoughts went on and on, and finally I simply stopped thinking about it.
As long as he's not implicated by me, that's fine...............
"If so..... I smell ...... For a while....... Buddha in ...... Shewei Guo..... Moe tree.... To give.... Lonely Country...... With big ................."
I have silently recited the Great Compassion Mantra a thousand times, the Meditation Mantra I have silently recited 2,000 times, and I have silently recited the Pure Heart Mantra and the Diamond Sutra a thousand times.
There was a sound of chains colliding outside the door, and I thought it was my auditory hallucinations and ignored it, until a light came in, and I reacted in a daze.
The door opened, and someone dragged me out of the cage and carried me out of the prison.
I thought it was just a real dream, and I was thrown into the carriage, and when the carriage finally stopped after a long time, someone lifted the curtain and lifted me out again.
It wasn't until I sat in the bathtub and watched a couple of medical women with silver needles pricking me around that I gradually realized that everything was true, I wasn't dreaming, I wasn't hallucinating, I was really out of prison.
"It's ....... Where is .........?"
As soon as I opened my mouth, I realized that my voice was as hoarse as an old woman, and I had not eaten since I entered the prison, and the jailer would send a bowl of rice soup every once in a while, saying that it was rice soup, but in fact it was just a bowl of muddy water with a few grains of rice.
No one answered after I opened my mouth, and I didn't have the strength to ask them again, anyway, the people who were going to die, barefoot and not afraid to wear shoes, whether they were dirty and cut off their heads, or washed and chopped, they were all the same as for me.
Someone brought a bowl of soup in, brought it to me and fed me one bite at a time, I haven't seen it so delicious for a long time, after drinking it, the whole person is relaxed, after drinking the soup, I only feel that the fog in front of me is thick, more and more blurred, the eyelids tremble up and down, and finally I can't hold my eyes and close them, and fall into the darkness.
The dream was blank, and I saw myself squatting on the ground, clutching my knees, my head buried deep in my legs, and even though there was nothing around, I still maintained my posture in the iron cage, not daring to move.
Wake up again, into the eyes is the sky full of pear blossoms, there are countless pear trees around, the branches of pear blossoms are beautiful, counting the current month, the pear branches should bear green fruits, why are there still pear blossoms in bloom here.
After spending a few days in prison, it was as if it had been an autumn or winter, and I almost thought it was spring.
A pear blossom branch fell, and I stood up to pick it up, and my tentacles were cold.
The wheelchair made of rosewood is very exquisite.
I struggled a few times, but I was still sitting firmly in my wheelchair, my back sweating like rain, and I didn't move at all. I reached out and pinched my arm, pinched my back, and pinched my leg.
I fumbled and pulled out the mutilated hosta from my bun, probably because it was not good-looking, and it was broken in half, and no one took it away when I was imprisoned. I slashed the sharp corner of the hairpin into my calf, and a large area of blush smeared as the brocade split.
Looking at the gradually smeared Su Jin, my heart sank to the bottom of the cold valley.
"Why bother to practice yourself like this, you can get out of the prison alive, take a look at the beauty of this world, what else do you want."
The sky is full of pear blossoms, and among the shadows of flowers, a person wearing a phoenix crown and a xia curtain walks slowly, the corners of his eyes are slightly raised, but the smile does not penetrate into his eyes, and the seven-colored golden phoenix hairpin above his head proudly spreads his wings in the air.
She glanced at my leg lightly, and immediately Gong'e stepped forward to stop the bleeding for me, she reached out to catch the pear blossoms falling in the air, and tore them off one by one, and with a wave of her hands, the petal fragments were scattered in the wind.
"Is it beautiful here? I heard that you like pear blossoms very much, so I brought you here, this is the most beautiful pear orchard in the palace, how about it, do you still like it? ”
She stepped forward slowly, took the hosta from my hand, and reinserted the blood-stained hairpin into my bun, "Do you like this wheelchair?" It was the wood that the palace personally selected, the patterns drawn by himself, and I watched them work overnight. The prison is cold, your legs are injured in your muscles and bones, and the imperial doctor said that you will not be able to go to the ground in this life. ”
She said very lightly, as if to say that the flowers are blooming very well today, she walked slowly behind me, pushed me forward, and only heard her whisper behind her, "This palace knows your temperament, and you can't move in a wheelchair for a lifetime, so it's better to die directly." This palace has met you, and I still have the old love in my heart, and I wanted you to be in prison and forget it. So that you are comfortable, and I am comfortable. There's no way, he has to see you, although Bengong doesn't want to, but he really can't do it, Ye Hao, Bengong doesn't know whether to pity you now, or be jealous of you..........."
I didn't understand what I meant, but she pushed me, turned three corners, and crossed four gates. Finally, it stopped in front of a yellow-roofed tile and carved dragon and phoenix hall. I looked up and saw three large golden characters written on the plaque at the palace gate.
Throne room.
