A high-ranking prisoner of Fu Zhengwei's level is naturally imprisoned in the deepest part of Dali Temple Prison, and Qin Bairui, who has not even been convicted, has to go up one level to see it.

Zhou Suojie put his hands in the big sleeves of his official uniform, and with an unknown expression, he took Zhong Zhuyu up the stairs, and at the corner of the two stairs, he took the key to open the lock wrapped around the door, and pushed open the door hidden in the wall.

The door and the wall were both gray and white, and as Zhou Suojie pushed it, a puff of dust was raised, and it took a while to stop at the tip of their noses.

I guess it's a side door, and no one has opened this door for a long time.

Zhong Shuyu waved his hand at the tip of his nose, trying to drive away the dust that had accumulated for an unknown amount of time, but Zhou Suojie looked unconscious, and when the dust was almost gone, he took Zhong Shuyu inside.

The first basement floor looks much better than the second basement floor, but there is still a musty smell around the tip of the nose, which makes people want to sneeze unconsciously after smelling it for a long time.

Zhong snorted, trying to suppress the urge to sneeze, and his gaze fell on the cells, trying to divert his attention.

These cells are large and small, but all of them are iron cages, unlike the second basement floor, which has a separate room. The people locked in the iron cage all looked decadent, and when they saw people coming, they only lazily lifted their eyelids, as if nothing could affect their emotions.

Seeing this scene, Zhong Zhiyu's heart tightened, and he became more and more worried about Qin Bairui's situation.

In fact, Qin Bairui is also a peculiar person, obviously the two have not known each other for a long time, but they can make Zhong Zhuyu feel very cordial on the first day, and unconsciously let down his guard and believe what he said, even if his behavior is too public, he will not have a gap in his heart, he just thinks that this person should be like this.

Zhong Xiyu thought of the first time the two met, Qin Bairui said that he used to call him "Brother Rui", did he really forget this person?

No, he must have made it up!

Zhong Zhiyu shook his body, resolutely not believing that he would shout such a chilling name.

Just when Zhong Zhiyu's thinking diverged, Zhou Suojie, who had been walking forward without looking back, suddenly stopped.

Arrived?

Zhong Zhuyu followed his gaze and couldn't help but be stunned.

I saw that in the iron cage around the corner, Qin Bairui was sitting on the ground against the wall, his robe had been stained with many stains, and the love silk that had been wearing the jade crown was also scattered, his face was pale, he pursed his mouth and tilted his head, staring blankly at a certain place on the ceiling, his eyes were calm, as if he was hiding the cold blizzard in it, and he was like two people who usually jumped out.

Zhong Zhuyu was still looking at his side face and was stunned, so Zhou Suojie turned around and whispered: "Miss Zhong, you speak quickly, I'll help you watch it on the side." ”

This is really wrong, although he handed over the silver, but he is no longer the county lord, and his father has been buried, he is a Shaoqing of Dali Temple, why do you need to help yourself with the wind?

Zhong Zhuyu didn't dare to move, only looked at Zhou Suojie standing in front of him with a pair of eyes inquiringly, but his expression was so well controlled that Zhong Shuyu couldn't see a trace.

Then he was interrupted by Qin Bairui, who heard the movement.

"Xiao Yu! You've come to see me! ”

The tone is cheerful, and there is no deep look at the right talent.

Zhong Shuyu reluctantly walked towards the iron prison where Qin Bairui was kept, and his vigilance against Zhou Suojie was immediately washed away by Qin Bairui, seeing him get up and limp towards him, he hurriedly asked, "What's wrong with your leg?" Did they torture you? ”

"Nope." Qin Bairui smiled: "How can I say that I am also the orphan of the hussar general, they dare not torture me." ”

Zhong Shuyu: "...... That's not how the word orphan is used. ”

"Almost!" Qin Bairui scratched his head, stretched out his legs and kicked towards the iron railing: "I couldn't be angry when I ate for the first time, but I didn't expect this railing to be solid iron, and I twisted my ankle after just kicking it!" ”

Zhong Shuyu: ...... I didn't know what to make for a while.

After a moment of silence, Zhong Zhiyu asked, "Is the food here very poor?" ”

That's nonsense, how good can the food in prison be? It's good not to give you rancid rice and vegetables, but Qin Bairui was excited when he said this, and said indignantly: "It's too bad! That dish is all cold! There are only two steamed buns with pickles every day. ”

“…… That's really hard for you. Zhong Shuyu patted him on the shoulder and changed the subject: "Then did they interrogate you again?" ”

"Nope." Qin Bairui's face collapsed: "They ignored me after they locked me in, Xiao Zhiqing's turtle grandson didn't want to starve me to death here." ”

"He won't, and he won't dare." Zhong Zhiyu comforted: "Then tell me, have you offended anyone recently?" ”

"Nope." Qin Bairui replied categorically: "I've been studying in Taixue recently, and I don't run around with poor grades, who can I offend?" If there is, then it's also the Master, and the last time he said that what I wrote didn't make sense......"

It turns out that it is not easy for the master and the son...... Zhong Shuyu plucked a handful of bitter tears for his master.

"So do you have any new acquaintances lately? Or something strange is happening? For example, what kind of seedling, your entourage's elbow is turned so outward? ”

Speaking of this, Qin Bairui's eyes darkened, and he muttered: "I don't like to go around with my entourage, although Da Miao is my entourage, we don't have much to do with each other...... And since my father left, the hussar general's mansion has been fluctuating, and now that I am imprisoned in Dali Temple, I think they have a group of people who have packed up and run away. ”

"A pack of white-eyed wolves!" Zhong Shuyu couldn't see Qin Bairui's lost appearance, as if a sun had lost its dazzling light, and her heart was empty, so she scolded hatefully and comforted: "If there are really white-eyed wolves, I will beat them up when I go out!" ”

Qin Bairui really laughed again, revealing a mouthful of big white teeth: "Thank you, Xiao Zhuyu." Saying that, he suddenly remembered something, and said with some excitement: "The biggest change I have here these days is that I am getting closer to you!" ”

I?

Zhong Zhiyu was stunned: "You mean that this is for me?" ”

"Not really, it's just that I really don't know anyone I know anything new besides you."

After pondering for a moment, Zhong Shuyu nodded at him and said, "You are here to wait for my news with peace of mind." After that, he hesitated for a moment and stuffed Qin Bairui with a lot of silver tickets: "If you are really hungry, take these stuffs and give them to the food delivery person to add some good ones for yourself." ”

"Do you have a clue?" Qin Bairui took the silver ticket, his eyes fell on her, and there was a trace of worry.

Zhong Zhiyu's eyes fell on his feet again, and he replied, "A little." Are you sure it's just an ankle sprain? Did it hurt the inside? ”

"Nope." Qin Bairui patted his chest and promised: "I won't be polite to you, you can rest assured." ”

Zhong Shuyu smiled, she just liked Qin Bairui's personality.

"Miss Zhong, it's almost time."

Zhou Suojie reminded him in a timely manner, Zhong Zhuoyu had no choice but to say goodbye to Qin Bairui and leave, walked to Zhou Suojie, who was not far away, and said politely: "Thank you, Lord Zhou." ”

"No need to be polite."

Zhou Suojie walked in the direction he came, Zhong Zhiyu hurriedly followed in small steps, just like when he came, the two of them didn't say anything all the way, until Zhou Suojie closed the side door, then wrapped around the big lock and said: "I'm troublesome Miss Zhong today, the Fu family has just become an upstart in the family, and they have the audacity to rebel, it's really unclear." ”

Zhong Zhiyu was stunned: "The Fu family wants to rebel? ”

"Yes, weren't you there when Fu Zhengwei confessed?" Zhou Suojie glanced at her with an uncertain expression: "Lord Sun took away all the confessions, presumably now they have been presented to the emperor." ”

Fu Zhengwei would rather the entire Fu family be punished by the Nine Clans, and he would have to carry the crime down? But there is obviously someone behind him!

But what did Zhou Suojie tell himself about this?

Zhong Zhiyu opened his mouth, only to feel that his throat was dry, and he couldn't speak for a while.

Zhou Suojie saw that she had understood what she meant, so he put down the lock and walked up the steps: "I didn't know that Gongzi Qin had a very good relationship with Miss Zhong before, so I'll find someone to show him his foot injury later, please rest assured Miss Zhong." After speaking, seeing that Zhong Yuyu didn't speak, he said in an accentuated tone: "If Miss Zhong still needs Zhou's help, just ask." ”

Zhong Shuyu lowered his head, hid his face in the shadows, took a few deep breaths and said, "That's it, there are more Lord Zhou." ”
