Chapter 63: Arrested and imprisoned
I don't have any objects to prove my identity, including the identity of Tsing Yi, I can't prove it, but I only remember some vague memories of my childhood, "I only remember that the annual Beimo State Congress is actually just a gimmick to the outside world, in fact, the conference is not held at that time at all, the time for real political affairs is different for each tribe, the dog Rong should be on the tenth day of June, and the Xiongnu should be on the eighth day of November." ”
Qi Ming and Li Yan glanced at each other, and the two were silent and did not speak.
Suddenly, there was a commotion outside the door.
The door was snapped twice.
Qi Ming frowned, walked over and opened the door, who would visit at this time?
Standing outside the door was Xiao Yu.
He was dressed in black, with his hands behind his back, standing in the rain, the guards behind him holding umbrellas for him, and the two black-clothed guards followed him, standing straight.
I don't know if it's because of the cold wind and humidity that poured in from the door, but a trace of cold air hit, and every hair of my hair grew up.
"Lord Xiao," Qi Ming waved his hands and saluted, "I don't know why Lord Xiao came here so excitedly?" ”
"Prince, I want to see Miss Xuansheng." Xiao Yu's face was grim, and his tone was colder than rain.
Liyan and Qiming looked at me, I didn't know what to do, I slowly walked to the door and moved behind Qiming.
"I don't know if Lord Xiao is looking for Lu Sheng, but what's the matter? I brought Sheng into the palace, what is the matter, Lord Xiao Yu and I said that it doesn't matter, and Sheng is a weak woman who can't be the master. Qi Ming confessed beside him, and it was really hard to guess Xiao Yu's actions.
"Weak woman? The prince doesn't have to be polite to follow, recently it has been found out that Miss Langsheng may be involved in the lives of important members of the royal family, I will take her back to investigate, and ask Miss Langsheng to come with me. Xiao Yu was still unfazed, as if it was normal for him to die and catch someone.
Could it be that he already knows that I am the one who assassinated the Four Princes? I was shocked.
Li Yan laughed out loud at this time: "Haha? What's what? Homicide? Do you think she looks like a murderer? Lord Xiao, you must have misunderstood, these days Luo Sheng and we are in the palace, inseparable, how can there be any time, Lord Xiao, you must have misunderstood......"
The corners of Xiao Yu's mouth lifted upward, and he sneered: "I don't know if the two princes know about this, but this woman is indeed a suspect in the assassination of the fourth prince, and I will take her to investigate." ”
After saying that, I nodded, and the guards on both sides immediately walked towards me and tried to take me away.
"Wait!" Liyan roared and protected me behind him. "How can you arrest people so casually? Do you say that a murderer is a murderer? What evidence do you have? ”
Xiao Yu didn't say a word, and the guards on both sides also stopped continuing to catch me.
"Lord Xiao, I'm not trying to stop you from arresting people, it's just that you said that Luo Sheng is a murder suspect, you have to come up with evidence, right? Otherwise, the last time you took Luo Sheng for questioning without permission, I didn't pursue it, and this time you casually arrested my person who rode Ming, this is not appropriate, right? Qi Ming was also aggressive, and opened a battle with Xiao Yu.
Xiao Yu's eyes flashed with a strange look, and then he smiled self-deprecatingly: "So, the two princes already know the true identity of Miss Xuansheng as an assassin?" And that's why you're trying so hard to deal with me at this moment, right? ”
Qi Ming was suddenly speechless, he couldn't imagine that this brocade-clothed guard's ability to observe words and look at people's minds was so powerful.
"I'm sorry, so far I haven't found any reliable evidence that Miss Luosheng must be the murderer, of course, I'm not here today to convict her, she's suspicious, I just want to temporarily detain her in the inner court for review, two princes, it's always okay, right?" Xiao Yu is still stable, it seems that he has made all the preparations today, and it will not work if I don't go with him.
"You can't!" Liyan retorted.
"Why?" Xiao Yu asked.
It is true that we have no suitable reason to stop Xiao Yu's actions at this moment.
Xiao Yu looked at him and said coldly, "Liyan Yushan, this girl is a doctor in our Han medical hall, and she once assassinated the prince of our Han people, this matter was originally my family affair in the Tang Dynasty, I hope it will not cause any conflicts between tribes." I still hope that it is better for the princes not to know what this girl has done before, or else...... This is not something that a few of you can bear. ”
Qi Ming and Liyan's fists were clenched tightly, after all, Xiao Yu's words were not leaky, I am afraid that he had already reported this matter to the saint, and this matter was equivalent to completely handing over to Xiao Yu's hands, and if he was not careful, Long Yan was furious.
"Master Xiao, I'll just go with you." I walked to the door, and although I didn't know what was going to be in front of me, I couldn't do it to get involved with Yan and Qiming.
"It's still the girl who understands the truth." Xiao Yu smiled slowly at me.
"Lord Xiao, I can't stop you when you come to me to detain people today, but before you find evidence, if Yang Sheng suffers anything, then I won't give up!" Li Yan said viciously.
The lynching of this palace is not frightening, he will not let you die directly, but will make you live and not die, and I am now a felony who assassinated the prince, and the consequences must be death.
"Yu Dan, please rest assured, I have already made this matter clear, and when this matter has a result, I will immediately ask this girl, she can't stand any suffering." Xiao Yu said.
Beheading? With such cold words, I could feel the glittering blade on my neck.
"You brocade-clothed guards never ask the reason?" I said tremblingly.
"The reason is to ask Miss Luosheng to come with me, and we will talk about it after we get to Dali Temple." Xiao Yu was indifferent.
With that, the two guards stood beside me and made a gesture of please.
"Mian Sheng, don't worry, I will definitely rescue you, you won't stay in it for too long, remember, you are Xuan Sheng! You've been talking to someone until you see someone, you know? Qi Ming looked at me and said earnestly.
Could it be that I can't let Xiao Yu know about Qingyi? Why? At this time, I remembered what Ye Linghan once said, "This matter is much more complicated than I imagined, and I must not tell anyone casually." "Since they both said so, there must be a reason.
But at this time, I didn't have time to ask, nodded at Qi Ming, and said, "Got it." ”
In the pouring rain, I was escorted out of the palace by a group of guards.
There were already a few princes from other tribes outside the Anle Palace, they were standing in the distance and pointing at me, the news in this palace spread really fast, Xiao Yu just came to arrest people, and these people had already come to see the excitement.
"Sister Sheng!" The crisp female voice came from far and near, and Twilight Snow ran over in a hurry with an umbrella, followed by the rider.
"What are you doing here!" She slammed the guard to my left and walked over to hold the umbrella over my head, "What are you doing with the big black face?" Why did you arrest her? ”
Xiao Yu was furious by her big black face, and gritted her teeth and said, "Princess Dusk, please don't get in the way of our case!" ”
"Handle the case? What kind of case? Why bother Sister Yang Sheng to go with you? You brought the case to our Anle Palace to handle it? I don't get in your way! Twilight's little face was puffing out of anger, and her jet-black hair was already wet with rain as she had covered me with all the umbrellas covering me, and water drops were dripping down her bangs.
"Twilight, don't make trouble!" I held her hand and pushed the umbrella on her head, she didn't understand what the situation was now, so why let her collide with Xiao Yu: "Be obedient, go back to Brother Liyan and Brother Qiming, my sister is fine, I won't come back at night." ”
Twilight tugged at my arm.
"Ride her, take her back, and then go find your brother." I looked at the rider behind Twilight.
"...... Sheng"
"I know you're surprised, it's okay, you go back first, and Qiming will explain it to you. Take Twilight away or the wound on her leg will become infected. I said to the rider in a commanding tone.
Riding Joy wanted to say something, but finally stopped talking, and slowly pulled Twilight Snow to his side.
Today, the five princes and princesses have all seen it, why can't Chen Fei be seen? But I didn't have time to ask, so I followed Xiao Yu and came to the dungeon of Dali Temple.
The dungeon was well-built, with long corridors on the left and right, and a few oil lamps lit on the walls, faintly looking like ghost fires, darkening the souls of the dead. I shuddered and clenched my arms tightly.
At the door of the cell, Xiao Yu stopped and asked sharply: "You don't have to pretend to be with me here, I already know your identity, what's the use of doing a dying struggle?" ”
"If, if Lord Xiao really knows everything and has evidence, then just kill me directly, why bother bringing me here?" I shuddered, and my upper and lower teeth collided slightly as I spoke.
"You're smart enough, I just want to know, why can't I find any evidence?" Xiao Yu stared at me with a gaze like a torch.
"Lord Xiao, you have to find out my problem, and how do I know what evidence you are looking for......" I was cold, and I didn't want to say another word.
"Humph! Don't rejoice too soon. Xiao Yu smiled contemptuously: "Go and change into prison clothes, and then stay in the cell honestly, and after seeing the saint, I will try you again." ”
After saying that, he walked away without looking back, I looked at this dungeon, and it became even colder, even if it was as cold as Xiao Yu, it could give me a trace of familiarity and warmth that belonged to human beings here.
The jailer brought me a wide suit of prison clothes, took me by the arm, pushed me hard and pushed me into the cell, threw the clothes on the straw mat, and then turned and locked the cell door.
The iron chains clanged, and each sound was shocking and chilling.
Xiao Yu came to interrogate me, what should I say? And what Qi Ming said told me not to tell anyone who I am, when will his salvation come?
What about Ye Linghan? Where is he? Won't I hear from him until I die?
