At this moment, in a big prison in the capital, there is a person shivering and hiding in the corner.

He was unkempt, his hair was covered with dust and dirt, and he looked like he hadn't been washed in days, but he wasn't as skinny as the prisoners who had been in the prison for a long time, and his body was still a little white.

This person is Zhang Yuan, since the trial that day, he has been imprisoned, he has not seen anyone outside these days, even his brother Zhang Yi has not been able to successfully come in to see him, just because this matter has been arranged by the emperor to Wei Yan to take care of, even if Zhang Yi has great ability, he and Wei Yan have not been very good at dealing with each other, Wei Yan is simply impossible for him to come in to see Zhang Yuan easily.

And these days, Zhang Yuan has also suffered a lot in this prison, he has been living a pampered life since he was a child, even in the years when he and Zhang Yi's father and mother just died, although it was a little hard, but Zhang Yi has always loved him very much, so he didn't let him suffer anything in the end, but it was only in this prison that he discovered for the first time that there was such an unbearable place in the capital.

Thinking so, he shrank back into the corner again.

Not only is this cell unclean, but there are also many rats running back and forth next to their feet, how can Zhang Yuan, who grew up pampered, endure it?

When he entered this cell on the first day, he saw that the ground was dark, there were uneven pits everywhere, and rats were running here, so he couldn't help but vomit, and the prisoners who came out to escort him saw him like this and laughed at him a few words, "This Zhang Yuan is really a son, Lord Shangshu must have grown up with you on his back on weekdays!" ”

Zhang Yuan didn't want to go back at all, but when he thought that his brother had indeed sacrificed so much for himself, and now that he had been escorted to the cell, he was no longer a rich and powerful person, and today was different from the past, so he swallowed this anger and swallowed it in his stomach.

At first, he was also very uncomfortable in the cell, but to this day he still can't adapt to it, and he hasn't even been able to fully accept the fact that he will stay in this building forever.

However, Zhang Yuan has not made no progress in staying in the cell these days, at least he can swallow and eat a little bit of the food sent by the guards every day, at first he saw that the meal was not rice porridge or porridge, he was really unappetizing, he couldn't believe that this kind of thing could be eaten by people!

He grabbed the rice balls in the bowl with his hands, and stuffed them into his mouth stiffly, he knew that if he didn't eat them, he would definitely starve to death in this cell, and then he would be able to weigh the hearts of some people, and it was only his brother who was sad, so thinking of this, he stuffed the rice balls into his mouth even more firmly.

Brother, this may be the end of my life, you must be good outside...... Zhang Yuan couldn't hold back his tears while thinking about it, and the tears wet the rice balls, making this rice ball, which had no taste, even more difficult to swallow.

At this moment, he raised his eyes slightly, and found that the door to enter the cell from the outside was open, and a glimmer of light came into the cell, "Knock knock-" A few times, someone came in, he quickly put down his rice bowl, grabbed a rice ball that he hadn't finished eating in his mouth and hid in the corner—

This is a trick he learned from these prisoners, often as soon as the door opens, it means that a big man is coming, and they have to avoid this kind of prison meal.

Zhang Yuan silently shrunk in the corner and nibbled on the rice ball in his hand, not realizing that the so-called big man had stopped in front of the door of his cell.

Zhang Yuan waited for a while and found that something was wrong. The door of the building is still open, and the light has not disappeared, but there is a shadow at the door of his cell, could it be that the so-called big man is coming to find trouble for himself, but now he is also a prisoner who is being focused on, who dares to touch his thoughts?

Thinking so, he secretly raised his head and glanced in the direction of the door, but he didn't expect that just this glance would make him throw away the rice ball in his hand, and his face was immediately full of tears.

The so-called big man standing at the door was none other than his brother - Zhang Yi, Zhang Yi was covered in a black cloak all over his body in order to come to see him, and only a pair of eyes were exposed, but it was his brother, so he naturally recognized it at a glance.

Zhang Yuan originally wanted to pounce directly, but although this cell was a cell, it was also covered with other people's eyeliners, and now he had become a lot more cautious, and he first looked around for a moment or two, and then took a few steps forward with some hesitation.

Zhang Yi saw that his younger brother, who had grown up in the palm of his hand, had become what he is now, and his heart was even more unbearable! In the past, why did his Zhang Yi's younger brother have to look at his face like this, but now he is just meeting him, so he has to look forward and backward like this, for fear of seeing someone!

"Big brother, why are you here!" It wasn't until he was sure that there were no unfavorable factors that Zhang Yuan quickly took a few steps forward and reached out to grab the iron railing of the cell, and looked at his brother through the gap.

Zhang Yi didn't speak, just looked at the younger brother in front of him carefully, he had lost a lot of weight, and he was so unkempt.

"Yuan'er, I'm sorry for you! It's because I didn't take good care of you that got you to this point! When he said this, Zhang Yi's eyes were already red.

Zhang Yuan heard his brother's painful whimper like a lone wolf, and he couldn't hold back his tears, and his tears fell down at once, when they took him away that day, his brother didn't shed tears, and when their parents died, his brother also firmly held back his tears, but today seeing his depressed appearance, his brother no longer held back his tears.

Zhang Yuan shook his head vigorously, "No, big brother, these are the causes that I planted myself, and this effect is naturally borne by me, it has nothing to do with you, if it wasn't for my ghost at the beginning, I wouldn't be sent to this cell now!" ”

"Your eldest brother has been proud all his life, and the proudest thing is to raise you so big from such a small bean to such a small bean dice, never thought that there would be any accidents on you, but I didn't expect that now it really made you a good young man to be sent to this cell by others to suffer, this is all the dereliction of duty of the eldest brother, if it weren't for the eldest brother taking it lightly, all this would not have happened!" Zhang Yi lowered his head in pain as he spoke, for him, it was nothing that he suffered hardship, and Zhang Yuan really made him unbearable when he suffered hardship.

To this day, if all these means or punishments had been directed against him, he might not have had the same grief and anger as he does now, but they sent one of his most beloved brothers to suffer and suffer, which was the last thing he could bear.

"Big brother, I've figured it out in this cell these days......"
