At noon, Han Feng came to bring lunch to Wen Zhiyu, Wen Zhiyu didn't speak, and after Han Feng put down the tray, he spoke: "Your Highness, this morning Xu Cong took someone to Yuelao Temple and arrested a woman. ”

"And then?"

"That woman was originally what Jin Shen was looking for, but I didn't expect that woman to make trouble in the morning market again, and now Jin Taosong and He Liangxin will not let her go."

"Where is that woman now?"

"was imprisoned by Xu Cong in the government prison, probably to teach her a lesson and make her soft. Your Highness, are we going to save her? ”

Wen Zhiyu thought for a moment: "Jin Taosong and He Liangxin are both targeting people, it's a bit interesting, you have to find a way to rescue her." Ben Wang felt that she should have found something in the morning market, otherwise it would not have been possible to make a fuss for no reason.

"Yes!" The cold wind replied.

When Wen Zhiyu was about to leave in the cold wind, he spoke again: "It's not convenient for this king to go out to do things now, so if there is any news, you may be more well-informed, and this king doesn't want the matter of the crown princess to appear a second time." ”

"Your Highness?" Han Feng looked at Wen Zhiyu, who was wrapped in a cloak, and his heart was not a taste, he knew better than anyone that Wen Zhiyu didn't have much time left.

"The crown princess is also your master, understand?" Although Wen Zhiyu's voice was low, Han Feng could hear the seriousness in it, "The king you want will plan for you, and you don't want to stop what the king wants." ”

"Yes." When Han Feng walked out of the room, he found that a layer of cold sweat broke out on his back, and he hadn't seen Wen Zhiyu like this for a long time.

In the prison, no one came to deliver food to Lianzhi and the people in the next cell at noon, Lianzhi was not surprised, Xu Cong must have specially told people to starve themselves for a few meals.

As for the fact that there is no one to deliver food in the cell next door, it is even simpler, because these people have no use value, and it doesn't matter if they starve to death.

Lianzhi stood up, walked to the railing and leaned against it, and said to the people lying in the next cell, "Don't play dead, I know you're awake." ”

The few people who hadn't moved since they were thrown in heard Lianzhi's words, and slowly opened their eyes and looked at Lianzhi: "Who are you?" ”

They were a little puzzled, and in terms of the appearance of Lianzhi, as long as they saw it once, they would not forget it.

"I just saw it in the morning, and my memory is so poor, I should be able to hear the sound, right?" After Lianzhi's reminder, these people remembered who she was: "It's because of you that we have become like this." Look at your rampant appearance in the morning, aren't you still squatting in the prison now? ”

"At least I'm still standing, you can't stand." Lian Zhi sneered, "But you have done so many hurtful things for He Liangxin, and he is for you?" ”

"You ......," the soldier said only one, and then could no longer speak.

Another person spoke: "If you hadn't broken our tendons and hamstrings, how could we have been abandoned?" ”

"Do you think you were abandoned only because your tendons and hamstrings were broken?" Lian Zhi asked rhetorically, "Isn't it because you are not good for taking care of the morning market that you will be tortured?" ”

"That's not because of you, if you hadn't come out to make trouble, we wouldn't have fallen to this point."

"If you fall into the trap of the people of Feng'an, and disregard the lives of others for your own selfishness, the punishment you will not receive will eventually fall on your family. Now there is still a chance to make up for it, do you still have to go all the way to the dark? ”

Listening to Lianzhi's words, several people fell silent.

Lianzhi spoke again: "When you went to Feng'an, you must have had the intention of serving the country and the people, but now you are doing something that harms the people, do you have a clear conscience?" ”

"We are also forced to be helpless, if there is any other way to live, we will not take this road? Don't we know that the people are pitiful? But if we have this disease, we can only wait for death, it doesn't matter if we die, what should the people in the family do? In order to save some money for our family, we had to agree to go to the morning market. At the end of the day, is it our fault? ”

Another soldier also chimed in: "That's right, the people of Feng'an are pitiful, and we sick soldiers are not pitiful?" We are destined to die, even if we have sinned deeply and fallen into the eighteenth layer of hell, we will admit it, and only ask for the safety of our families. ”

"The people of Feng'an just don't have access to this matter, and if they have a choice, are you sure they won't choose the same path as us?"

Lian Zhi retorted: "But are you soldiers who defend the country and are you the same as ordinary people? No matter how many reasons there are, if you do something wrong, you will do something wrong, and as long as you are willing to make amends, there will still be a chance, but you will only make excuses for yourself. ”

At this moment, an old couple locked up in the opposite cell spoke: "What kind of soldiers who defend the family and the country, it is ridiculous. ”

"Who are you?" The appearance of these two old men should not be long when they are locked up here.

The old woman glanced at her husband: "Why can't you keep your mouth shut?" ”

The old man was a little helpless: "Is this my fault old man?" ”

"Two old men, what mistake did you make to be locked up here?" Lianzhi asked.

Among the soldiers, the youngest one said with some resentment: "How can you speak, although I can't help the people of Feng'an in the matter of the morning market, I have never done anything that owes you before. ”

The old man became even more angry when he heard this: "Before He Liangxin came, although Jin Taosong was not much better to us, he still had some scruples. But after He Liangxin came, he was embarrassed with Jin Taosong, and Jin Taosong had no scruples at all, and he was very rampant. ”

"I heard that after He Liangxin came, he drove away the mountain bandits." Lianzhi was a little strange.

The old man replied disdainfully: "In the past, the mountain bandits went down the mountain, grabbed something and left. He Liangxin drove away the mountain bandits, but he and Jin Taosong wanted us to go bankrupt. ”

Lian Zhi sensed that something was not right: "As far as I know, after He Liangxin came, he and Jin Taosong helped Feng'an together. Without the infestation of mountain bandits, there is more income than before, and the life of the people of Feng'an is much better than before. ”

The old woman couldn't help it: "Girl, you don't know, what you see is superficial. There are many people like us locked up in this prison, but they refuse to listen to Jin Taosong's words and hand over the house deed and land deed, so they have been dragged here and locked up for so many years, and our house and land are estimated to have been occupied by Jin Taosong and He Liangxin a long time ago. ”

"The life of ordinary people looks good, otherwise they would not have hidden the eyes of the minister before, but which minister would come to the prison to investigate?" The old man added.

Lianzhi asked, "What about your children, didn't he take care of you?" ”

Pain flashed in the old man's eyes: "I have a son with the old woman, the family is poor, and later someone recruited soldiers, saying that they could give a lot of money." The son left without us, leaving us the house and title deeds that he had bought with the money he had bought in exchange for the army. In fact, that piece of land is very remote and doesn't cost much, but there will be a lot of businessmen coming and going here in Feng'an, and my piece of land has become a golden dumpling, which has attracted Jin Taosong's attention. ”

"And your son has not known about your plight?"

The old woman sighed: "He is dead, and he has not found a single bone. ”

The old man looked at the soldiers lying on the ground: "In fact, thinking about it this way, it is also glorious to die on the battlefield, it is better than some soldiers who bear the name of protecting the frontier and defending the country and do things that beasts don't do!" ”

The young soldier knew that this old man was mocking a few of them: "We have also done a lot for Feng'an, in order to drive away the bandits, do you know how many brothers have died? ”

"Eat the king's luck, the matter of loyalty to the king, listen to what this girl said, what have you done? Fortunately, I'm not your father, otherwise I would have been killed by you, and even if I lived, I would have no shame! ”

"You're talking nonsense, I just want to do something for my family before I die."

"You are dead, but your family will be poked in the backbone for the rest of your life because of your affairs."

Listening to the old man's words, several soldiers were quiet.

Lian Zhi looked at their reactions and thought to himself, he didn't expect that as soon as this old man opened his mouth, it would be more useful than he had persuaded for so long.

The old man suddenly looked at Lianzhi: "I just listened to you, you shouldn't be a bad person, how could a girl's family get into trouble with these things and be put in prison?" ”

"If you offend some people, you will naturally be imprisoned." Lianzhi replied.

The old man took a sip: "Now there are good people in prison, and bad people are running rampant outside, what kind of world is this?" But you little girl, if you can get out, you must leave Feng'an as soon as possible, Feng'an is not happy now. ”

"If it had been An'an, I probably wouldn't have come here." Lianzhi's words attracted the attention of those soldiers, and even the old man and the old woman were shocked by Lianzhi's words: "Girl, what do you mean by this, is it possible that you are still in a hurry to find trouble for yourself?" ”
