Chapter 329: In the Snow
"I've seen the prince."
The people I met along the way greeted each other.
Wei Han strode on the bluestone road covered with light snow, and soon walked into the heavily guarded prison.
The prison was filled with a damp and rotten smell that made people breathe with it.
Wei Han's footsteps slowed slightly, and he thought of Luo Sheng again.
She went to the prison to see Governor Luo, and she had to go through such a road.
Thinking like this, Wei Han couldn't help but speed up his pace.
"Lord Wang." When the jailer saw Wei Han coming, he hurriedly greeted him.
Xu is wind and snow all the way, making his face like a cold jade, and his voice like an ice spring: "Open the door, I will see the prisoner." β
"Lord Wang, this-"
The jailer's hesitation turned into panic after seeing Wei Han's token, and he hurriedly opened the cell door.
The cell where the guards of the Zhennan Wangfu were held was different from ordinary cells, it was an almost airtight stone chamber, with rows and rows of various torture instruments, and once the heavy stone door was closed, there was not a trace of movement outside.
Wei Han walked in with an expressionless face, and the token given by the emperor was easy to use, and it was much more natural to see the prisoner.
In the cell, there was a man with his hands and feet chained.
His long hair was disheveled and obscured from his face, and his clothes were bloodstained, revealing curled flesh.
Looking at the figure, he looks like a young man in his early twenties.
Hearing the movement, the man's hanging head did not raise it, and he said weakly: "How many times have I said it, it was Governor Luo who let me and the little prince go back then, what else do you want to ask?" Can't you give me a good time? β
There was silence in the cell.
Silent until the man raised his head slightly to look at the person.
It was a very young man, only twenty years old at most, and his eyes seemed to be filled with a cold night, clear and dark.
And Wei Han could barely see the appearance of the prisoner.
I said reluctantly, because the prisoner had blood stains and scars on his face, which covered some of his face.
This is a man in his early thirties.
"Gave you pleasure, have you thought about your family?" Wei Han opened his mouth.
The man heard that something was wrong, his eyes shrank slightly, and he asked, "Who are you?" β
He thought that the other party would not give an answer, but the indifferent young man said, "I am the King of Kaiyang." β
"King Kaiyang?" The man muttered, dazed and shocked.
He hid incognito in a remote town, but the name of King Kaiyang had heard of it.
The people of the Great Zhou Dynasty always talk about the victorious generals who fight against foreign races.
Why did King Kaiyang come to see him? What does it mean to mention his family?
Wei Han has no plans to sell Guanzi.
He went out for a few days, and he was not used to it, and when he finally came back, of course he didn't want to delay too much time here.
Hurry up and go to a wine shop and eat a pot of mutton soup.
"Your wife and children are all controlled, right?"
The man's eyes shrank suddenly, and his original weakness turned into a fierce voice: "What do you mean?" β
Wei Han looked at him and said calmly, "I rescued them." β
He said it so lightly that the man thought he had misheard: "You, what did you say?" β
Wei Han's expression was even lighter: "In other words, they are all in my hands now." β
"What do you want?" Excited, the man struggled, and the chains clanged.
Fortunately, all this movement was blocked by the heavy stone gate in this narrow and bloody small world.
The corners of Wei Han's lips curved slightly, and he said in a low voice: "What I want depends on how you will be." β
The man was stunned for a moment, staring at Wei Han, speculating on his intentions.
Wei Han frowned.
He had spoken so clearly, but the man had not yet understood.
Delay him from eating.
After being slightly dissatisfied, Wei Han sighed: "You have become a knife in the hands of those people, do you really think that they will save your family?" β
"I-" The man opened his mouth, speechless.
He is not naΓ―ve to believe, but just a little luck, willing to believe.
A man must always leave a little thought for himself, otherwise he will not be at peace when he thinks that his wife and children will be affected by him.
"They won't." Wei Han's tone was cold and hard, breaking the man's unrealistic extravagant expectations, "They will cut the grass and eradicate the roots, and they will not leave themselves trouble." β
"Don't say it, don't say it!" The man chained was like a trapped beast, and he didn't care if the chain struggled into the flesh as he struggled.
Wei Han didn't seem to see the other party's pain, and said lightly: "I will." β
Just two words, but the man's struggle came to an abrupt end.
"You...... You ......" The man is like a drowning man, and it is difficult to even breathe.
It was the disbelief that I heard hope after despair.
"I have the ability to keep them, and I never break my promises."
The man stared at the young man who was close at hand.
His expression was cold, his tone was cold, and even his eyes were cold.
But for some reason, looking at those dark and cold eyes, I couldn't help but want to believe it.
Maybe it's the impression left by the deeds of King Kaiyang that I've heard, or maybe it's the person who is really standing in front of him, those eyes are too clear.
The man who had been staring at Wei Han for a long time showed a wry smile.
The real reason, he knew in his heart.
It was he who had no choice, King Kaiyang and those people, of course, would choose the former.
After a suffocating silence, the man asked softly, "What should I do?" β
King Kaiyang suddenly saw him say these words, it couldn't be just out of kindness.
"You just have to tell the truth." Wei Han said lightly.
"Tell me the truth?" The man's face changed, and he had a guess.
King Kaiyang and those people should be opposed, those people want to destroy Luo Dadudu, he will keep Luo Dadudu.
The court battle, but he was involved in the desire to spend the rest of his life.
"Okay, I'll tell you the truth." The man quickly made up his mind and asked in a low voice, "But how can I believe that my wife and children are in your hands?" β
If the words of the family in the hands of King Kaiyang were coaxed by the other party, then he would undoubtedly become a lifeline for his family.
Wei Han took out something from his arms and handed it over.
It was a small bamboo whistle, and my son never left him.
"The child said that his father made it for him on his birthday last year, and let me bring it to you."
The man stared at the little bamboo whistle, tears streaming down his eyes.
His gentle and virtuous wife, well-behaved and lovely son, will never be seen again in this life.
No matter which side he is the sword, he will not survive.
When I walked out of the prison, it was not yet dark, and it was hazy white as far as the eye could see.
The filth of heaven and earth seemed to be covered by this sudden snow, and it became clean and flawless.
Wei Han had no time to enjoy the snow scene, and hurriedly stepped on Qingxing Street in the snow.
The snow was still falling, from heaven to earth.
Pedestrians were almost absent from Qingxing Street.
The black cloak brushed the snow, and soon approached the damp cyan wine banner.
"Girl, King Kaiyang is here!" Hongdou caught a glimpse of the man who was about to walk to the door, and shouted to Luo Sheng excitedly.
