It wasn't until Ning Xuan couldn't see the shadow when he was far away that Ning Zimo happily withdrew his gaze, Yujin always felt that Miss Yan's reluctant eyes were too revealing in this public.

She coughed lightly and persuaded, "Miss, it's cold here, can you go back?" ”

"Okay, "

In the North Garden, Liuxiang looked at the snow in the courtyard with some amazement, the people who were freezing on this day were a little shrunken, but Liuxiang didn't feel cold, but she kept sitting there, did she look at the gate that guarded the two people.

It's been two days in a row, and he hasn't come.

When there was a message, it was just a messenger, and he had never been to this courtyard again.

"Girl, have you packed your things?"

Hachi was assigned to take care of Liuxiang's diet and daily life, and to protect Liuxiang's personal safety by the way.

"There's nothing to do, there's nothing to collect."

Since the day Liuxiang was taken away by the replacement of her identity, there is nothing, the proud identity, the glory of the tentacles has also disappeared, not to mention those pearls and satins worth thousands of gold, and now Liuxiang is just a simple place in the crowd and can't be found.

It is difficult to make people compare this kind of woman dressed as a peasant woman with the eldest lady of the prime minister's mansion who is high and dazzling.

Xiaoba always felt that there was an indescribable sadness in this person, and he didn't say anything when he heard this, but persuaded him dutifully: "You are pregnant, if you have some medicinal herbs, your subordinates have brought you some, as well as winter clothes, and your subordinates will let the maid go in and clean up for you." ”

Liuxiang just nodded and asked softly, "What about him?" ”

"The master is busy, so he can't say it's coming."

The corners of Liuxiang's lips smiled sadly, sure enough.

She took out the handkerchief that Ning Xuanli handed her to wipe her tears from her arms, the handkerchief had been washed very clean, and it was still fragrant, her fingers gently rubbed on the gold thread embroidered on the word Li, bowed her head and muttered: "Since you don't come to see me off for the last ride, I won't pay you back." ”

Yan Ji sealed it in his room, looked at the news brought by the ghost hand carving around him, and asked again with confirmation: "It's confirmed that it was escorted by that Qu Jiang, right?" ”

"Yes. Tomorrow morning, I will go to pick up people in the prison, but I heard that in addition to those who have stayed at home, there are other criminals who will also be escorted to Ningguta. ”

"That's okay, when the time comes, rob people on the road, just kill those people by the way, and the province has a lot of long nights."

"Then Shizi, where are you going to do it?"

"Wait a little farther, it's farther away from the capital, but you can't be closer to the government on the road, otherwise the government will send troops to support the search, so many people will not be able to hide, so let's do it here."

As Yan Jifeng spoke, his index finger steadily pointed to a certain mountain col on the drawing, which was quite far away from the capital, in a remote location, and far away from the government, and the snow on the road had not melted, the road was not easy to walk, and the government would not be able to support it if it wanted to come for a while.

By the time the people from the government arrived, they had already run out.

"Yes, for this prisoner robbery, we have used almost all of our power in this capital, just to ensure that the family is safe, is this price greater?"

"It's because we don't have enough power in the capital, and Liuxiang must be the future princess, and if I save my family, I will save my own people. Don't hesitate any longer, let you find out the whereabouts of Liuxiang, you haven't heard any news yet? ”

Thinking of this, Yan Jifeng was a little anxious, how many days have it been, Ning Xuanli really hid people well, his people have been looking for so many days, and there is no news at all.

"No, but don't worry, Shizi, you will save the Liujia family by then, and the father will be in your hands, and you are not afraid that Miss Liuxiang will come to you obediently. Can Ning Xuanli keep trapping Miss Liuxiang? ”

What the ghost hand carved said was very much in line with Yan Jifeng's intentions, and Yan Jifeng was even thinking in his heart that Liuxiang promised him that as long as he rescued the people who stayed in the family, she would promise to be her own concubine.

Thinking of this, he became more serious and restrained, and commanded in a deep voice: "Be careful, when robbing prisoners, don't hurt people, this time you must be foolproof."

"Yes, it is inconvenient for you to go out of the capital, not only those who arranged it will go over, but also your subordinates will go there in person when the time comes. It is guaranteed that people will be rescued and you will not be discredited in front of Miss Ruxiang. ”

"That's good, be careful to sail the 10,000-year-old ship, you go down first and prepare for it, and make sure that nothing goes wrong when the time comes."

Yan Jifeng was still thinking about rescuing people, and then he would devote all his strength to find Liuxiang's whereabouts, he didn't believe it, people were in the capital, and it was difficult to fly.

In winter, it was dark early, and the inside of the prison was even darker and unclear, only the kerosene lamps hanging on the walls gave sporadic light, and there were always jailers walking around with sabers in their hands, patrolling the prison.

When it was time for dinner, two jailers bought dinner and came over, and when they saw that the meal was coming, they all rushed over and formed a circle around the table, drinking wine and eating meat.

"Xiaolin, you have a heart, and I bought hot wine, come and come, it's cold, let's all drink a cup to warm up,"

Originally, some of the little jailers were not good at drinking, but when I heard the foreman say so, it would be fine to drink a glass or two.

And that Xiao Lin had already lifted the lid of the wine jug, and the aroma of the wine suddenly got into the noses of those people, and they all smashed their mouths greedily, and saw the foreman take the lead in taking a sip, and for a while the bowl took the bowl, and the wine cup took the wine cup, and soon, the two pots of hot sorghum wine saw the bottom.

And those who drank fell crookedly.

Xiao Lin pushed those people with some anxiety, and pushed the bodies of those people with the handle of the saber: "Eh, wake up, you still have to look at the cell, don't sleep, you guys." ”

The foreman was also a little uneasy, and tried to put the knife on the neck of those people, the cold back of the knife irritated the skin of those people, but they didn't wake up, and they still slept like dead pigs.

"Let's go, quick, you guys change your clothes first."

The foreman asked Xiao Lin to look at these people, afraid that someone would wake up, and then took out a lot of prison guards' clothes and put them on for the family members in the prison.

Then they took off the sabers of the jailers, and each wore it on his waist, and wore a hat, so that if he did not go in and look, he could not see that the group had been replaced.

The foreman led people around, and when he saw someone, he hid, and those people followed him, and they trembled, and finally got out of the cell.

After leaving the cell, they breathed a sigh of relief, and the prime minister was even more tearful, and made a gesture in the direction of the general's mansion: "Thank you General Ning." ”

The foreman was startled when he heard this, and hurriedly said with a dark face: "You thank General Ning for being okay now, but if you are discovered in the future, if you are accidentally arrested, don't confess General Ning." ”

"Naturally, how could we do such an ungrateful thing and repay grievances with virtue."

The foreman squinted, looked around the dark surroundings and said: "Xiaolin, according to the plan, it is the waterway, you escort them to the shore, the relationship has been opened on the side of the moat, and the boats traveling tonight will not be interrogated, so hurry up." ”

When Xiao Lin heard this, he turned around and left with these people.

But after only taking two steps, Xiao Lin was stopped by the foreman: "Xiao Lin, don't come back." ”

Xiao Lin nodded very seriously and instructed, "Then you should be careful yourself." ”

"I'm fine, Zilin is still in the prison to help me watch, I'll go back to clean up the aftermath first, I ran so many people, I can't hide it for long."

After the foreman said this, he walked back without hesitation, but before the others reached the prison, they saw the fire in the prison, and the prison was flooded, and the fire was raging, and after a while, the prison became a sea of fire.

Zilin just went to relieve himself, but he didn't expect that the prison suddenly burst into flames, and the foreman also ran over, shouting at Zilin in disbelief: "You are crazy, so many of our brothers are still unconscious inside, you can't burn them to death if you set fire to them." ”

Zilin felt wronged, and panicked when he saw this fire that couldn't control the fire at all, and defended loudly: "I just went to relieve my hands, and when I came back, it became like this." ”

The foreman looked at the people in a panic, holding buckets and splashing water, but the fire still only increased, and by the time the fire was completely extinguished, the sky was already bright.

The prison was burned beyond recognition, and all the remaining people inside were dead.

There seems to be a smell of burnt corpses in the air, and the Shangshu of the Criminal Department heard someone say that the prison was out of water in the middle of the night yesterday, and with an emergency token, he entered the palace overnight to report the news.

When Qu Jiang brought people here, he saw that the prison had been burned to the point that he couldn't find even a complete tile, so he asked with a twisted eyebrow, "What's the matter?" ”

Those who were originally guarding in the prison secretly rejoiced that they were not on duty in the prison last night, otherwise they didn't know how they were burned to death, and one of them rolled his eyebrows, and immediately said: "Yesterday, I saw that some of the brothers in that team bought wine and came back to drink, maybe someone drank too much and knocked over the coal lamp, and the prison is covered with dry dry grass all the year round, maybe it will catch fire."

This is still said in the past, Qu Jiang was still puzzled, watched the jailers carry out the charred corpses, and said to his own soldiers behind him: "Go, I don't see enough manpower, you go and help." ”

The soldiers obeyed military orders, and when they heard this, those people immediately ran into the burned black prison.

Qu Jiang got off his horse, and surveyed everywhere, between the smell of lagoon lamp oil, he seemed to smell the smell of gasoline, and when he was about to take a closer look, Shangshu of the Criminal Department came back sweating profusely.

Seeing Qu Jiang coming, he hurriedly greeted: "Junior General Qu, you came just in time, the emperor ordered me to find out how many people were burned to death, you just brought soldiers here, you can help the official." ”

"Yes, the last general is naturally duty-bound, and he has already sent someone in."

"Hey, my dereliction of duty is terrible, the emperor said that if I can't find out, I will take off the black gauze hat of this official."

The Shangshu of the Criminal Department only complained about this sentence in a low voice, and he didn't dare to let other people hear it, so he hurriedly instructed the master beside him: "Go, go to the Criminal Department and transfer the files of all the people in prison, and the official wants to see how many people should be in this prison." ”

Everyone who commits a crime and comes in will keep a case in the criminal department, and they all know how many people there are, if they are really dead, see if the corpse is right with the person on the bile file.
