Wei Suizhong listened to Junchen's words, and couldn't help but say in surprise: "Zhongcheng, he was only arrested and put into the Governor's Court today, and he was still alive, and he died suddenly, this is ...... Wouldn't it be too obvious? ”

Lai Junchen snorted coldly and said: "This person has a lot to do with King Liang and Xue Huaiyi, and Shangguan is also very protective of him, if it is late, I am afraid that these people will come forward to interfere, and I will have some scruples when I want to make a move." Those people haven't had time to open their mouths now, I'll kill him first, it's already a boat, can they still turn their faces against me for such a small person? ”

Wei Suizhong nodded and said, "Okay, I'll go and strangle him now and make a fake hanging!" ”

Lai Junchen stopped him and said, "What a stupid talent! Is there a place in the cell for him to hang? Besides, he was wearing shackles, and he was still tied, and he couldn't move, he actually looked hanged to death, and you were so easy to fool when you were the emperor and King Liang and Xue Huaiyi? ”

"That ......"

"Poison!"

Wei Suizhong hesitated: "Poisoned? Doesn't that make it clear that someone wants him to die? ”

Lai Junchen smiled and said, "How come? Since this person is an accomplice to the traitorous party, and his accomplices have been arrested one after another, can he not be afraid? He must have prepared poison just in case, and now that he has been caught, he has committed suicide in fear of sin, why not? ”

Wei Suizhong said with a smile: "Zhongcheng said so, then the lowly position will be understood!" ”

Lai Junchen said: "When he dies, do some tricks and feet on his collar and make a gap where he can hide things, and the official will condemn him to suicide by taking poison, even if others are suspicious, what can I do?" ”

Wei Suizhong gave a thumbs up. praised: "It's still Zhongcheng who is smart, and he will do it!" ”

"Wait!" Lai Junchen called him again and said, "You first find a reliable subordinate to arrange this matter, don't be busy with it." We'd better not be here when he's dead. ”

Wei Suizhong smiled knowingly and said, "Zhongcheng is thoughtful, and he understands his humble duties!" ”

Wei Suizhong hurriedly walked out. Lai Junchen stroked his beard and pondered for a while, with a slight smile on his face.

I have to say that although this Junchen is a famous cool official. But his appearance and temperament are really handsome and extraordinary, and he is as rich as jade. The corners of his mouth were slightly upturned, with some evil smiles, and there was really a charm in it.

……

It was approaching evening. The rain was a little lighter, and the officials of the magistrate's house left the yamen one after another to return home, and a middle-aged man with a sturdy figure and a black prison official costume stood under the dripping eaves of the long corridor, watching the officials leave, and then ordered the officials to close the door.

The heavy door of the house slammed shut, and the two deacons carried the heavy latches and put them up with a "tom", and the iron chains were wrapped around both sides, and a large iron lock weighing five or six catties was locked with a "click".

The black-clad jailer watched them meticulously follow through all the procedures before turning around. He limped away, a large set of keys at his waist rattling as he moved.

This jailer's name is Zhang Lilei, and he was originally a team leader in the Yulin Guard of the Forbidden Army.

In order to maintain the combat effectiveness of the Praetorian Guard, the imperial court has always maintained the tradition of transferring the Praetorian Guard to participate in the battle, and this Zhang Lilei killed one of the Helan officials of the other side while fighting the northern Turks. made great contributions, and had a chance to be promoted, but unfortunately his injuries were too serious, and after he recovered from his injuries, he could no longer serve in the army, so he was transferred to the Push House and became a prison officer.

Wu Zetian still takes good care of her descendants. Eliminate their worries as much as possible so that they can be true to themselves.

Most of the people who were arrested in the Push House were officials, although everyone knew that once they were arrested in the Push House, it would be the end of nine deaths, but in order to make their relatives less abused, their families would still willingly go up and down, so the prison guards and prison officials who worked here earned quite a lot of money.

However, for a soldier who is expected to become a general, a glorious ancestor, and a lintel of the light gate, arriving here means that his life can only stop here, and Zhang Lilei, who was hit by this, has always been silent in prison, and even his close jailers and deacons are a little afraid of him.

Rice is being cooked in the dining room. There is a kitchen on the left and right, and smoke billows from the kitchen. Although the firewood was stored under the shed, because of the downpour, the firewood was damp, and thick smoke came out, and several cooks who were cooking kept coughing.

The kitchen on the left is a meal prepared for the jailers and jailers, although it is also a large pot dish, not exquisite, but the dishes are still very rich. The kitchen on the right is a meal prepared for the prisoners, three large pots, all of which are gruel made of old rice, and some vegetables are thrown into it, so that there are even vegetables and rice and water.

Zhang Lilei stood at the door of the kitchen and glanced inside, and shouted, "Zheng Xiaobu! ”

In the kitchen, a master with a big waist and a round waist and a face full of meat was holding a thick wooden stick and stirring it in the rice pot, when he heard someone calling him, he hurriedly threw the stick, grabbed the sweat towel on his shoulder and wiped the sweat on his face, and rushed to the door, saw Zhang Lilei, and nodded and said, "Zhang Tou'er, do you have any instructions?" ”

Zhang Lilei stiffened his coffin face and said: "'Lin No. 7 Prison' has just arrested a prisoner, and he hasn't had time to inform his family, no one will deliver food today, and when the prison food is delivered in a while, remember to prepare more pots!" ”

"Okay! Don't worry, the boss! ”

While the two were talking, under the corridor opposite the kitchen, the two deacons quietly came together, glanced over through the thin rain curtain, whispered a few words, and then staggered over. In the wind and rain, all this faintly exudes a strange atmosphere......

※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※

"Bang dang!" With a bang, the cell door opened, Zhang Lilei limped in with the key in his hand, this cell has eight cells, all of them are the cronies and subordinates of those high-ranking officials, their families are all in other places, no one sends food, and can only be provided by the prison.

There were three oil lamps hanging at intervals above the passage in the middle of the cell. As soon as the cell door opened, the bitter wind and rain rushed into the door, and the lamp was crumbling in the wind and rain, reflecting Zhang Lilei's face.

Four jailers walked in with a large bucket of porridge and stopped at the door of the first cell, followed by a few men who took one out of the bucket of rice bowls. The other person took out a scoop of vegetable porridge from the porridge bucket, poured it into the rice bowl, and handed it to Zheng Xiaobu. Zheng Xiaobu walked to the cell door and stuffed the rice bowl into the door.

Soon, the porridge was delivered to all eight cells, and the iron door slammed shut. Re-locked it, he ran to the next cell.

When Zhu Bin, the commander of the pilot, was arrested and taken into the magistrate's house, the cell was already full, and he was held in a temporary cell against the wall of the west wing. This makeshift cell, which was originally used as a coal storage house, was built with brick walls, separated by thick wooden pillars like formal cells, and everything inside could be clearly seen through the gap in the middle.

The cell was small, there were no windows or vents, and there was no light inside. Because the door is not a regular prison door. There was no food door to pass things into, and there was a spare torch stuck in the wall outside the cell door, and someone lit the torch, Zhang Lilei opened the door, and the deacon with the torch bent over. The first one walked into the cell.

Zhu Bin was tied to a pillar in the middle, because this cell was not a formal cell, and people outside could not see the situation inside without opening the door, and if they entered rashly, they were afraid of being attacked by the prisoners, so the prisoners inside could not move freely and were tied to the pillars.

A bowl of vegetable porridge is served. Zhang Lilei glanced at Zhu Bin tied to the pillar, Zhu Bin hurriedly smiled at him flatteringly, and begged: "Zhang Tou'er, I want to make it easier!" ”

Zhang Lilei asked with a straight face: "Big solution or small solution?" ”

"Little solution!"

"Then untie it in your pants!" Zhang Lilei replied impatiently and said to Zheng Xiaopu: "Hurry up!" ”

Zheng Xiaobu didn't say a word, picked up the vegetable pot and put it on Zhu Bin's mouth, and a pot of vegetable porridge fell down.

Zhu Bin hurriedly opened his mouth and tried to swallow it, whether it was porridge or vegetables, he didn't care about chewing at all, he just swallowed it in a big gulp, Rao was so almost unable to keep up with Zheng Xiaobu's speed.

After drinking a pot of porridge, Zhu Bin's face was already red, panting for breath, Zhang Lilei turned around, the cell door slammed shut again, and the room was suddenly dark.

The next room is where Yang Fan is held. Zhang Lilei walked to the front of the cell, took out the key to open the door, the cell door opened, and the deacon with the torch walked in first.

This cell was built according to the topography and leaned against the wall, and was originally used to store various materials of the Imperial Observatory. The cell where Yang Fan was located also had no windows, and the cell was pitch black, but his cell was much more comfortable than the cell where Zhu Bin was.

This house is relatively regular, twice as spacious as the cell where Zhu Bin is, and the frame is relatively high, so you don't have to bend down when you go in. This house was originally used to store all kinds of office utensils such as paper, ink, pen and inkstone, so it was very clean, and everything was not all cleaned, and there was a wooden frame next to the wall, and some papers were scattered on the ground.

Yang Fan was tied to the pillar, and in the darkness he was thinking hard about how to get out of trouble.

He knew that he was bitten, and who could it be that the one who had bitten him? Yang Fan thought about it, and soon thought of Zhu Bin. Zhu Bin was already at odds with him, and after seeing him ascend, he was jealous and resentful, and now he was arrested and brought to the magistrate's house to bite himself to vent his personal hatred, which is very likely.

Thinking of this, Yang Fan made up his mind a little, Zhu Bin didn't have much contact with him, once interrogated and confronted, it was impossible to say any strong evidence, he was Yu Linwei's general, this is the emperor's most trusted arm, and he will definitely be more cautious in trial. Moreover, he has quite a large number of contacts, so there is no need to say that Wan'er is there, once King Liang and Master Xue know his situation, they will not stand idly by.

Therefore, he is still relatively optimistic about getting out of trouble. Yes, as soon as you enter the door, it is a game of nine deaths and one life, but there are exceptions after all, he did not participate in the rebellion, even if Zhu Bin bites him, once he is interrogated, it will inevitably be full of loopholes.

Even if there is a fight between the various factions in the court, with his current official position, he should not enter the eyes of those big people and become the target of their eradiation. Faced with such a trial result, it is believed that the people of Yushitai will not risk offending such figures as Xue Shi and King Liang and will inevitably kill him.

He would never have thought at this time that there was indeed a big man who wanted to put him to death, and this person turned out to be the main hall of Yushitai.

In the dim darkness of the night outside the cell door, the two jailers looked at each other, their eyes sparkling. One of them took out a rice bowl and gently knocked on the edge of the basin, while the other nodded knowingly, took the lunch box, filled it with a spoonful of vegetable porridge, and handed it to Zheng Xiaobu.

Zhang Lilei entered the prison cell, still with a coffin face that no one should approach, and no acquaintance should approach, and said a sentence like gold: "Hey! ”

Zheng Xiaobu came up to Yang Fan, who was tied to the pillar, and said angrily: "Open your mouth!" ”

Yang Fan suddenly saw the light, and couldn't adapt for a while, he squinted his eyes, and before he could see the person in front of him clearly, the vegetable pot came to his lips, and a bowl of vegetable porridge was poured down!
