Chapter 198: Night Visit to the Criminal Department

The weather has not been very good recently, and most of the time the sky is raining with the chill of the new winter on the faces of the people who are hurrying, and people are so shocked that they can't help but speed up the pace of travel.

As the night deepened, so did the chill.

Xie Yaoguang hugged the fox fur and leaned lazily on the table, holding a book in his hand and flipping through it by the light. Today is the day when she and King Shou agreed to go to the prison of the Criminal Department to see Su Qinglin, but now there is still about an hour before the time she set. Xie Yaoguang, who was bored, picked a book to read at random, but it was also pleasant.

At the beginning of autumn, Xie Yaoguang was afraid of cold, and basically the dragons in the fire basin were burned extremely warm. At this time, the carbon fire used in Xie's house was also continuously sent in, and Xie Yaoguang sat on the brazier, and her originally pale face was also flushed with smoke.

Probably tired from being smoked, Xie Yaoguang curled up in the fox fur, put the book on his lap, and leaned on his forehead with one hand to take a nap.

The breath is long and even, and the eyelashes are thick and slender.

Qingluan came in with tea and saw Xie Yaoguang taking a nap, glanced at the copper leak in the room, and saw that it was still early. also knew that Xie Yaoguang's body had always been like this, and it was easier to be scarce than ordinary people in winter, so after lightly putting down the tea and adding a few new carbons to the brazier, he knelt on the side to guard Xie Yaoguang.

"Little ......"

The words are not finished yet. Zhuo Jing saw that Qingluan made a silent gesture towards him, and took the words back to his throat. cautiously glanced at Xie Yaoguang, who was leaning on a few naps.

"How long did the young lady sleep?" Zhuo Jing deliberately lowered his voice and asked Suzaku.

"When I came, Mademoiselle, she was already taking a nap. There should be a moment when the hour is counted. Qingluan glanced at Xie Yaoguang not far away, and said in a deep voice: "What's the matter?" Are you about to look for Su Qinglin? ”

Hearing this, Zhuo Jing closed his eyes and sighed, then raised his eyes and looked at the dancing fire candle with regret, "Well, there will be a while." Later, you remember to invite Wei Xuan, and the medicinal materials in the house can be prepared. I'm worried that if Su Qinglin tells the truth back then, Miss she may not be able to bear it. ”

"I'll do it, and you can rest assured. Do we need to bring some more people to follow secretly in this operation to prevent accidents?" After thinking about it for a while, Qingluan asked Zhuo Jing's opinion. Although Zhuo Jing's martial arts are strong, they all know it, but there will be some traps waiting in the shadows.

It is only right to be careful in case of trouble.

"You arrange for people to follow them in secret, telling them not to reveal their identities until necessary. I'm afraid that some people have begun to watch our every move. I remember telling the people in the house to step up patrols as well, because I was worried that they would spy on the truth at night. Zhuo Jing said in a deep voice, with a hint of worry in his tone, "Hua Luan Bailu also remember to inform them and deal with all forces carefully." ”

"Well, I'll take care of it." Qingluan smiled gently and took Zhuo Jing's words.

The two were talking about Xie Yaoguang, who was originally taking a nap, didn't know when he woke up, staring at the two intently.

"What time is it?"

"Whisk."

"Well, let's go."

After a little freshening up, Xie Yaoguang took Zhuo Jing out to the prison of the Criminal Department.

On the streets on a cold night, there are few pedestrians. From time to time, from the deep alleys, there was a burst of wild cats, which was particularly poignant. A green cloth carriage drove unhurriedly down the long street, and finally disappeared around the corner of the long street.

The lantern hanging in the cold wind at the door of the prison of the Ministry of Punishment also swayed in the wind, like a pair of golden eyes peeping on each visitor. Two people who seemed to be wrapped in night stopped under the lantern, and only one of the two lanterns emitted the only warm color, which looked a little pitiful in the cold wind.

There were already people waiting at the door of the prison of the Criminal Department, and when they saw the two of them, they couldn't help but be overjoyed, and stepped forward to greet them.

"Are you Miss Xie Yaoguang? This official Jiang Yan was ordered by His Royal Highness King Shou to wait for Miss Xie here. Jiang Yan smiled, King Shou had already told him that Xie Yaoguang was the most powerful strategist around him, and he was also a celebrity in his eyes, so he had to treat Xie Yaoguang well.

People who can win the favor of King Shou naturally have the ability. And he had also heard about this Xie Yaoguang's deeds, so didn't he come over to greet him in person. I only hope that Xie Yaoguang can say a few good words for himself in the future.

Xie Yaoguang was wrapped in a dark cloak. Holding an umbrella beside her was a man in a dark robe, who looked handsome but cold, and at first glance it felt like an unsheathed sword.

"Exactly, there is Lord Lao Jiang." Xie Yaoguang nodded politely, his tone calm.

Hearing this, Jiang Yan smiled, bowed down and led Xie Yaoguang into the prison of the Criminal Department. At this time, Xie Yaoguang had just stepped into the prison of the Criminal Department, and Ye Linchen had just arrived at the door.

Ye Linchen stared at the back that disappeared in front of him, and there was a hint of surprise in his eyes...... That back seems to be Xie Yaoguang from him? Sensing Ye Linchen's abnormality, Pei Huai also looked at the entrance of the prison of the Criminal Department. Could it be that there is a secret here?

Suppressing the doubts that flashed in his heart, Ye Linchen turned his head and asked Gao Yuyan on the side, "Is Su Qinglin also imprisoned inside?"

"yes...... His Highness wanted to see him. Gao Yu asked a little suspiciously, and after thinking about it for a while, he said in a deep voice: "Otherwise, I will go and arrange for Your Highness now?"

"Uh-huh......." With that, Ye Linchen walked quickly towards the prison of the Criminal Department. He always felt that following Xie Yaoguang would definitely know a lot of secret past events that he had never known, and he thought that Su Qinglin must also know a lot.

The ghost envoy sent him to follow Xie Yaoguang's footsteps and walked in.

The prison was not as eerie as it was rumored, but it was extra cold and damp. Xie Yaoguang slowly walked down the steps, and Jiang Yan followed by and whispered to remind Xie Yaoguang to be careful with his step.

Xie Yaoguang just nodded, looking around every corner of the prison, and his eyes gradually revealed a little melancholy. The prison of the Criminal Department naturally feels eerie and terrifying to outsiders, but only those who enter it know what is eerie and terrifying here?

The most frightening thing here is never the eerie horror, but the feeling of falling from the clouds to the bottom. Yesterday Fang was a high hall with a soft pillow and a rich and wealthy, but today he has become a prisoner under the stairs, life and death are undecided, this feeling is really uncomfortable......

Stepping on the bluestone bricks under his feet, the candles are shaking around. Xie Yaoguang raised his eyes and looked at the end of the bluestone path, where he could only see a dark depth. Like a beast with its jaws open, waiting to devour everyone who enters it.

There it is......

"It's called Hell. It is said that none of the people who entered it made it out alive, but most of the people who were able to be imprisoned inside were some royal nobles. Jiang Yan smiled and looked at the place where Xie Yaoguang was looking and said, "I have heard that there was a very capable prince and Gu ...... decades ago."
