Chapter 48: The Search for Evidence

After speaking, Nan Fengwan also clenched his fists, looking like he had received the humiliation but couldn't do it.

When the prefect heard Nan Fengwan say that he was the second son of the Prime Minister's Mansion, he was still a little suspicious when he wanted to defect to him, after all, the second son of the Prime Minister had been bullied for so many years, and it was impossible to defect to him at once.

But when he heard that it was because An Linghan didn't release him, he believed most of it.

The prefect thinks that this princess Ze is just a showman, married to a fool but coquettish and rude.

The prefect touched his beard, and after some thought, he had an answer in his heart.

"In that case, then Lord Ben will accept you. However, I need you to continue to be by An Linghan's side and tell me what she will do in time! ”

Nanfeng Wan nodded, with a loyal face,

Then, Nan Fengwan seemed to notice something, and smiled at the prefect with some apologies.

"It's really my sin to interrupt the good things of the adults just now, today I heard that there are a new batch of girls in the spring rain building in the town, as compensation adults, it is better to ......"

The prefect instantly understood, smiled obscenely and said, "You are still sensible." ”

Subsequently, the prefect changed his clothes and walked towards the Chunyu Tower.

Nan Fengwan's gaze darkened a little, and then he returned to his usual follow.

At this time, An Linghan, who was squatting in the dark, saw them set off, and then his figure flashed to the door of the study.

An Linghan had already mastered the terrain here during the day, so it was easy to find the location of the study.

An Linghan gently pushed the door of the study, and only after seeing that there was no abnormality did he dodge in.

An Linghan looked around, surrounded by a piece of precious calligraphy and paintings, and the whole room was shining with the same golden light.

An Linghan felt a little dazzling, and at the same time a little angry.

At this time, Jingzhou was experiencing a drought, and the prefect, as a local official, not only seized the relief grain and relief silver, but also lived such a luxurious life.

But if the prefect takes out a painting in the study, it can make ordinary people eat for half their lives!

An Linghan looked around angrily and found that there was no account book.

An Linghan was a little puzzled, there were no account books in the study and bedroom, so where would the account books be? Is it possible to carry it with the prefect himself?

An Linghan was puzzled, and he really couldn't think of any place to hide things except for the study and bedroom.

Inadvertently, An Linghan's leg accidentally hit the corner of the table, and An Linghan bent down in some pain.

Suddenly, I saw a vase in front of me, which was covered with dust, but one vase was different, and the ash on that vase was much thinner than the others.

An Linghan was attracted to attention, and walked over without caring about the pain, these five dusty vases seemed to be very ordinary, making people forget at a glance, but they looked out of place in this luxurious house.

An Linghan stepped forward curiously and found that this row of vases seemed to be a row from a distance, but when he looked closer, it was very different.

There are a total of five vases.

The first two vases are one in front and one behind, the third vase is the one with thin dust, and the last two are one behind the other.

An Linghan thought about it carefully, and felt that there must be a demon when things go wrong, these five vases may be some kind of mechanism, and it is very likely that there is something important in this mechanism.

An Linghan felt that it was very likely that it was a ledger inside, and this vase was the password that needed to be cracked to open the dark grid.

The rule of the five vases is to be front and back, and the vase in the middle should be pushed to the front to make the rules consistent.

But An Linghan always felt that this seemed too simple? The rules that even children can find appear in the prefect's study.

An Linghan carefully observed the vase in the middle again, and found that there seemed to be no difference between the front and back on the ground.

An Linghan was just about to push the vase. Suddenly, I found that the track in the direction of the push back was a little grayer, apparently caused by frequent movement.

An Linghan was a little lucky, fortunately he didn't follow the train of thought, this mechanism is a trick, if it is not careful, it will really be circled inside.

Thinking of the consequences of pushing the wrong one, An Linghan didn't know, and of course she wouldn't be stupid to test it.

After returning the mechanism to its original position, An Linghan saw the wall in front of him disperse on both sides at a speed visible to the naked eye.

It turns out that this mechanism is not a secret compartment, but a secret room.

An Linghan stepped in.

Unexpectedly, as soon as I entered and gained a firm foothold, the door of the secret room quickly closed.

An Linghan was a little helpless, and now it seems that he can only move forward, after all, there is no way out.

An Linghan slowly walked towards the depths of the secret room, and the flickering candles around him kept flickering, sometimes bright and sometimes dark.

After walking for about a minute or two, the smell of blood greeted him, An Linghan frowned uncomfortably, and continued to walk forward.

But as soon as he walked in, An Linghan was stunned.

More than a dozen children were crammed into three large unlocked iron cages, their clothes barely covered and covered with large and small scars, as well as signs of wild animal bites.

When these children saw An Linghan come in, they were surprised at first, and then their eyes dimmed again, and they looked ahead lifelessly.

An Linghan looked at the children's unfocused eyes, and only felt as if there was a nameless anger.

I thought that the prefect was just greedy for money and lustful, but I didn't expect that he could do it with such a young child!

An Linghan took two steps forward, and those children were like frightened birds, hunched up, ready to attack at any time.

An Linghan looked at their appearance, and felt more and more that this prefect was not human.

An Linghan looked at the wounds on the children's bodies, and the prefect should have wanted to train these children to be killers.

But what puzzled An Linghan was, what was the prefect's intention in cultivating killers, and who did he want to assassinate?

If you simply want to protect yourself, then the prefect can directly buy guards with strong martial arts, and you don't have to bother so much.

An Linghan walked towards the children, but the children didn't dare to raise their heads, and some of them even burst out with monstrous anger and killing intent in their eyes.

An Linghan tried his best to calm down and said to the children: "You don't have to be afraid, I'm not from the prefect's house, why are you here?" ”

The children were relieved to hear An Linghan say that she was not from the prefect, but they were still a little skeptical.

An Linghan saw that the children were suspicious of her, and said again: "I am from the capital, not from Jingzhou." The drought in Jingzhou has not been good, and I am here for relief. ”

An Linghan paused, glanced at them and said, "Later, I found out that the reason for the serious disaster here was all because of the corruption of the prefect, so I wanted to leave evidence to find the prefect's corruption." ”

"You're lying! How could a disaster relief send a woman? You were sent by the prefect! One of the children shouted at An Linghan with a distrustful face.

An Linghan smiled and said, "It stands to reason that I really shouldn't have come for disaster relief, but I was asked by the second son of the Prime Minister's Mansion to go together." ”

When the boy heard this, he stopped talking.

The scene instantly became silent.

After a long time, a little boy raised his head timidly and said to An Linghan: "Sister, I believe in you, can you save us out?" The prefect made us duel each other every day, and let us fight with wild beasts, and we used to have fifty of us, but now there are only a few of us......"

Then, a choked sound came.

Hearing this, An Linghan felt sorry for these children again, An Linghan stepped forward and picked him up regardless of the dirt and blood stains on the little boy's body.
