Chapter 24: Prison Deals
Yan Ran's eyes were half-narrowed, and he looked at the person in front of him seriously, and the more he looked at it, the more he felt déjà vu.
"Your Royal Highness, shall we negotiate a deal?" The person who came did not beat around the bush and directly stated the purpose.
"What deal?" Yan Ran doesn't care about what she trades or not, she just wants to live.
"As long as Her Royal Highness the Princess tells the secret of the little princess, I will protect the lives of Her Royal Highness the princess and the little princess."
Secret again? What secrets does Qi Lianyue know? Why did Yun Wushuang and the masked man want to know the secret? Also, who is the little boy?
The man then said: "Maybe Her Royal Highness doesn't know that the security protector around the little prince has been killed by Zhuo Jinxuan's people, and now the little prince has been brought back by General He and is now being detained in the men's prison." ”
Yan Ran frowned slightly, and finally understood that the little boy should be referring to Yin Zimeng, and Aunt An is already dead!
"Your Royal Highness Princess, what do you think?" The man saw that Yan Ran had not spoken, and urged.
Yan Ran came back to his senses at this time, and there was no secret in Qi Lianyue's memory at all! However, since the so-called secret was so valuable, she had to make good use of it. The fact that these two people can appear in the prison unconsciously shows that his identity is extraordinary! If this person really cares about that secret, that's her chance to live!
"How do I know if you can't be trusted, what if you kill people after I say it?" Yan Ran already thought about it in his heart, and his face was extremely calm.
The corners of the man's eyes fluttered, and a smile appeared in his eyes, "Does Her Royal Highness the Princess still have a choice now?" Clearly, he was determined that there was no way out.
Yan Ran secretly hated in his heart, and it seemed that he couldn't fool this person, "Okay, I promise you!" I'll tell you when we're safe, though! ”
"Okay, Her Royal Highness the princess is really a cheerful person, then it's a word!" The person who came was in a good mood, "However, I hope Her Royal Highness the princess will not play tricks, otherwise it will ......" The man's words were not finished, but Yan Ran understood what he meant.
However, she is not something that anyone can threaten, "Do you think I will be afraid of death?" "The more people who are not afraid of death, the more they can survive, this is the first day she took the task to kill people, her contact told her, she has always believed in this sentence. Only the one who is not afraid of death can have no scruples and live to the end!
"Her Royal Highness the princess may not be afraid of death, but can Her Royal Highness bear to see the little prince die at a young age?"
"If he is destined to die with me, it is also his fate, and no one can help it!" Yan Ran replied coldly, as if he really didn't care about Yin Zimeng's life.
The man's face was slightly stunned, and the eyes that looked at her became complicated.
Yan Ran looked at him like this, and he was already sure in his heart that the secret was really important, and it seemed that there was hope for survival.
"Your Royal Highness the princess, rest assured, since Her Royal Highness the princess has agreed, I will definitely protect Her Royal Highness the princess and the little prince safely!" The person who came said confidently, "However, it is best for Her Royal Highness the princess to stay here obediently at this time, after all, this is a prison, although this female prison is unbearable, but it is also because the Yun family has offended people and was beaten by the enemy." Outside this prison, there are thousands of elite soldiers guarding it, even if Her Royal Highness the princess is extraordinary, it is impossible to escape from here alone! ”
Yan Ran was motionless, but she was thinking about his words in her heart, she knew that he was telling the truth, and she had no other choice, "Okay, I believe you." ”
The smile in the man's eyes deepened a little, and he looked like he was expecting.
……
The two slain jailers were dragged away by the black-clad masked man, but the prison was filled with sounds as if nothing had happened.
The two men swaggered out, but the jailers didn't seem to see them at all, and if it weren't for the undried blood on the ground that reminded her, she almost suspected that everything just now was just a dream.
In the next two days, Yan Ran heard the sound of going in and out of the cell, all kinds of crying and scolding voices mixed together, and occasionally heard someone mention the name of "Qi Lianyue", but they all scolded her angrily, Yan Ran frowned, these people's angry scolding made her feel upset, and then she knew that it turned out that Yun Wushuang was not the Yun family, he was the only prince of the Yue Kingdom, Zhuo Jinxuan!
However, the bloody thing is that this Zhuo Jinxuan has been transferred to the Yun family since he was a child and has become the second son of the Yun family!
No matter how ugly the scolding outside, Yan Ran sat quietly in the corner, as if everything had nothing to do with her.
With such calmness and calmness, even the jailers who occasionally came to patrol were slightly surprised, this woman was too different from the other ladies of the Yun family.
In the early morning of the third day, the prison was lively again. This time, after the cell door opened, the two jailers unceremoniously put shackles on Yan Ran and pushed her out of the cell.
Yan Ran turned her head and glared fiercely at the jailer who pushed her, and said coldly: "I will leave by myself!" ”
The jailer was stunned by Yan Ran's cold gaze, and his back was slightly cold, but he quickly reacted and glared at Yan Ran fiercely, "Look at what, go quickly!" "The sound is unnatural.
Yan Ran walked out of the cell where she had been in shackles for a week, and in the corridor outside the cell, many people like her who were wearing prison clothes and shackles were slowly walking towards the door, and the sound of crying and crying filled the entire prison for a while.
Yan Ran's heart was heavy, everyone was taken out, and it must be sentenced.
I don't know how the masked man said that he would save her, Yan Ran has no bottom in her heart, but she also knows that at this time, it will not work to rely on others, so after walking out of the cell where they were, Yan Ran carefully observed everything around her, the jailers, the officers and soldiers, and the terrain......
However, she was disappointed, after she walked out of the women's prison, she was still heavily guarded, and she couldn't be killed alone!
Yan Ran sighed in his heart, and slowly walked out of the prison with the crowd.
It was just dawning outside, but Yan Ran was disappointed to find that there were more officers and soldiers outside, this was not a street, the wide aisle was full of officers and soldiers on both sides, and there were archers standing on the higher buildings, which were heavily guarded, and it was completely impossible for her to escape!
Yan Ran was depressed in her heart, could she only rely on that masked man?
Thinking that her life is not in her control, this feeling is really not good, Yan Ran smiled self-deprecatingly, how would that person save her? Robbery of the Execution Ground?
After walking for ten minutes, they were taken to a hall where a group of prisoners, all men, all with blood on their bodies, were apparently tortured.
Yan Ran remembered that the masked man said that Yin Zimeng was also arrested, she raised her eyes and looked around, looking for the little figure, and soon, in a corner, she saw the little guy Yin Zimeng.
The cute little face that was originally pink was covered with dirt, and only a pair of black and white, round big eyes were particularly focused, although the body was also dirty, but it didn't look like it was hurt.
The little guy also saw Yan Ran, and the little child's eyes were moist all of a sudden, and he looked like he was about to cry.
Yan Ran looked at the poor little appearance, and suddenly felt distressed, Aunt An died, and he must have been very scared when a five-year-old child was thrown in prison.
Yan Ran looked at Yin Zimeng distressedly, opened her mouth, and said slowly word by word: "Don't be afraid, my aunt will protect you." ”
I don't know if the little guy understood Yan Ran's mouth shape, he quickly bit his lip and forced his tears back.
Yan Ran looked at Xiao Bu'er pretending to be strong, and suddenly felt comforted in his heart. Silently kneeling in the corner with others, looking around through the messy long hair, there were many soldiers around the hall, everyone was out of the sheath, the cold light was fierce, and they looked at these prisoners in the hall with fierce eyes.
Could this be the court where the Criminal Department hears the case?
When Yan Ranwu was thinking about it, a man in an official robe appeared in front of the hall, and when he walked in, he bent sideways and said, "Prince Wang, please." ”
Then, a eunuch in a dark blue robe walked out proudly, holding a roll of bright yellow cloth in his hand, looked at the hundred or so people kneeling below, opened the cloth, and began to read.
It turned out to be a holy decree.
Yan Ran didn't understand those twists and turns, but he heard the most critical sentence, all the Yun clan were exiled to Xiguta in Tongzhou, and the male was never allowed to enter the court as an official.
Yan Ran breathed a sigh of relief and went into exile, which can be regarded as leaving his life.
As for whether there will be people killed and escaped on the way to exile, only God knows, thinking of this, the corners of Yan Ran's mouth hooked up a faint smile.
Tongzhou Xiguta is in the northwest direction of Yan country, the land is barren, it is one of the poorest places in Yan country, starting from Yanjing City, it takes half a month to ride a horse, the carriage takes more than 20 days, and it is estimated that it will take two months to walk.
As soon as the holy decree was issued, the Yun family was escorted and prepared to go on the road. Along the way, the Yun family cried and cried, screaming that they were wronged, but when every injustice was exchanged for a fierce whipping, the Yun family gradually gave up shouting and resigned themselves to their fate.
However, after only half a day, Yan Ran wanted to scold her mother! The shoes on her feet were so thin that after only walking for a while, her feet began to hurt, and besides, with the heavy shackles around her neck, it was so painful to walk like this!
Although she is the best bounty hunter, has experienced the most brutal training, and survived in the harshest environment, she is a pleasure party on weekdays, after all, she is a high-risk profession, and she will lose her life if she is not careful, so almost all the commissions she earns are squandered by her, and she will never treat herself badly, good food, good drink, good fun, good to live...... Ask for the best for everything.
But now this inexplicable crossing has made her lose everything, not to mention, and let her live such a hard life, and this hard life does not belong to her, as soon as she thinks of this, Yan Ran hopes that the masked man will rescue her as soon as possible.
