Chapter 339: Secret Agent in Prison
The days in prison were like years, Gongzi Tao tangled and tore the straw under his buttocks, and a few mice ran in front of him without changing their faces.
There was movement outside the door, but he remained unmoved and continued to move in his hands.
The jailer came in with a lantern and lit the candles around him, and it was as bright as day.
He was uncomfortable with raising his hand to block the light, and closed his eyes for a long time before opening them. I happened to see Empress Wen standing in front of him.
"Hehe, isn't this the famous queen? It's really hard for you to deign to come to the prison to see me, a prisoner. ”
Gongzi Tao opened his mouth in a strange manner, and Hongcui, a henchman beside Empress Wen, choked and said: "Be bold, don't look at who you're talking to, it's already a great kindness for the queen to come to see you, and I advise you to get acquainted." ”
"Really? Then why did I turn a blind eye to her for help and have a weak heart? Or do you think I'm useless and want to get rid of it? ”
A series of rhetorical questions made Hongcui speechless, it was the queen who wanted to give up on him at the beginning, but now it has become a handle.
"Speechless? Then don't pretend in front of this son, and look upset. Gongzi Tao vented his anger and smashed the ground, and he didn't notice the slightest trace of blood oozing from his joints.
"Do you want to go out?" Empress Wen asked suddenly, the jumping lights shining on her face in obscurity.
Gongzi Tao sent the god to reply: "Of course, can you save me?" ”
He hurriedly crawled to the door of the cell with a mocking face just now, and begged her with the wooden door: "You can help me out, sooner or later you will drive me crazy here." ”
Empress Wen's eyes flashed with a strange light, and the hands hidden in her sleeves played with the prepared poison, and she originally planned to send Gongzi Tao away, but thinking of the news from the cabinet, the person in front of her was still a little useful.
"As long as you help me with one thing, I will go and beg the emperor to release you, not only that, but Ye Huiming will not have good fruits to eat."
"You say, as long as I can do it, I'm willing to do it."
Gongzi Tao couldn't bear it anymore, and even had a little resentment towards his father in his heart, obviously as the prime minister, he couldn't even save him, and he asked him to beg this woman, which was really unlucky.
But he didn't dare to write his true thoughts on his face, after all, he still needed to rely on Empress Wen now.
Hongcui looked at the queen in surprise, they didn't come to see off Gongzi Tao, why did they suddenly change their minds.
Empress Wen smiled without saying a word, and handed the porcelain vase to Gongzi Tao.
"Why give me this? Useful? ”
"Just take it, and you'll need it someday." Empress Wen said meaningfully, and then got down to business.
"In a few days, the Cabinet may come and interrogate them, and whatever they ask, you have to admit it, understand?"
Gongzi Tao's face changed, and he screamed: "You are stupid for me? If they all admit it, then it will be just the right punishment for my sin. ”
Empress Wen shook her head: "Only if you admit everything, the emperor will be suspicious, and I will take the opportunity to find a scapegoat to replace you at that time." ”
Gongzi Tao touched his chin, looked up at Empress Wen again, and finally nodded in agreement and put the porcelain vase into his arms.
"But I also have one condition, the jailer must listen to me, my son's life here is not as good as a pig and a dog."
Just thought that his young master had a temper, Queen Wen didn't say much, nodded and agreed, and stuffed a large amount of money with the jailer when she went out.
"Oh, the small things ordered by the queen should be done well, and the small ones with so much silver can't stand it."
"It's okay, just let the one who lives inside live in Ansheng, after all, there are not many days left in the future."
The last sentence was left in her throat, and the jailer heard the faint voice, but did not pay attention to it, looking at the silver in front of him, and his smiling eyes turned into a slit.
"Queen, why do you want to keep him?" Hongcui asked.
"The assassination failed, Ye Huiming detained Deadpool, and this matter also alarmed the cabinet, and they took over the case from Dali Temple, and they noticed us."
Empress Wen sighed, stealing chickens and rice, she was even more worried about whether those Deadpools would say something.
The cabinet is more fierce than Dali Temple, not only are they all foxes who have become fine, but even their means are three points more ruthless than those next to them.
"So, he's a substitute for the dead." Hongcui affirmed.
Empress Wen couldn't deny it, and instead told her: "Let the people in the palace be honest these days, especially those who have been called by the cabinet, just say that they don't know everything." ”
"Yes."
After Queen Wen and the others left, the jailer came to the prison with a flattering hand, and said with a smile: "This master, I was a small man who didn't know Mount Tai before, don't take it to heart, what do you want in the future, just say, I can definitely get it for you." ”
Gongzi Tao was lying on the ground, if it weren't for the slightly undulating chest, he would have thought he was dead.
"Go get me some water and clean clothes, and give me a pen, ink, paper, and inkstone."
Gongzi Tao said a string as if ordering food, and the jailer remembered it but was also confused.
The things in the front are normal, but the back is ...... To do this is to deliver the message.
As if seeing through what he was thinking, Gongzi Tao sneered: "Don't worry, I'm just writing a letter to my family and going back to report safety, and I won't affect you." ”
The jailer breathed a sigh of relief when he heard this, and nodded: "Childe, you wait, the little one will be brought to you immediately." ”
After saying that, he went to prepare these things, and the person sent the water and clothes first, and soon brought paper and pencils, and carefully brought a small desk, which was just enough for Gongzi Tao to sit at a high level.
He was satisfied, wrote a few pieces of paper, and finally put them in an envelope and asked him to send them away without looking at them.
"Put my name on me, and you'll get a reward."
With the silver first, the jailer did not hesitate, took the letter with a smile and ran to the prime minister's mansion.
Knowing that it was his son who sent him, the prime minister hurriedly invited him in, and the little jailer actually experienced the taste of a guest.
"How is my son inside, has he suffered hardship?"
The prime minister was finally able to learn about his son's recent situation, so he naturally held on.
As the prime minister, and his son was personally put into prison by the emperor, in order to avoid suspicion, he did not dare to visit in the prison, and he did not even dare to stuff money and give gifts.
The jailer laughed, speaking of which, when Gongzi Tao first entered, life was not easy, and it was only after Empress Wen came that it was greatly improved.
"Xiangye, everything that the son wants to say is here, the little one can't leave his post without permission, and he is still waiting over there, so he won't say much."
The jailer excused himself to be busy, and he didn't want the reward, so he hurriedly got up and was about to leave, but his heart was dripping blood.
The prime minister didn't send it when he heard this, and waved his hand to let the housekeeper go.
When he arrived at the gate, the butler stuffed a purse for him.
"My son-in-law will get rid of you first."
The jailer weighed the purse and smiled with satisfaction.
On the other side, the prime minister looked at what the letter said and fell into deep thought.
Gongzi Tao actually asked him to ask Ye Xiao for help, and asked him not to believe anyone.
Cooperating with Ye Xiao is tantamount to seeking skin with a tiger, but Gongzi Tao directly gave up Queen Wen to contact Ye Xiao directly, could it be said that Queen Wen is no longer reliable?
The prime minister thought slowly, and then shouted: "Come on, prepare the horse, I'll go to Yefu." ”
