The prison of the Criminal Department is divided into above ground and underground, Yingxi is not the mastermind, the cell thrown on the ground is still dry and transparent, Hongyi is not so good, and was thrown into the dark underground torture cell by Zhong Yu.

Yan Yu and Zhong Yu opened the way, and I followed all the way down the stairs, smelling the smell of decay and dampness, and from time to time I could hear the weak cries of prisoners begging for mercy and the squeaky cries of rats who didn't know where to hide. Along the way, Yanyu asked Zhong Yu: "It's been another day of trial, and you still haven't opened your mouth?" ”

Zhong Yu spread his hands and said: "There is no progress, Hongyi has always been loyal to Haoyuan, but I didn't know that he was still so hard-mouthed, he couldn't open his mouth, and he only had one sentence to speak, 'Ask to see Your Majesty'." ”

Entering the torture cell, the strange smell was mixed with the saltiness of human blood.

Seeing a person tied to a cross iron frame in the shape of a "big", covered in blood and without skin, I was stunned and said, "This is Hongyi? ”

Zhong Yu arched his hand and said, "Back to Your Majesty, it's him." ”

Looking Zhong Yu up and down, I said, "You're too ruthless, aren't you?" Anyway, you're old acquaintances. ”

Zhong Yu said with a smile: "Zhong Yu has too many old acquaintances in Diheng, and everyone has to be merciful, how can he be worthy of the position of the secretary of the Xuancang Criminal Department?" ”

"Huh." I looked at Yan Yu with a dry laugh and said, "What he said seems to make a lot of sense. ”

Yanyu smiled silently and bowed slightly.

The bloody and lifeless Hongyi moved when he heard the sound, pulling the bound iron chain with a crisp bell.

I stopped joking, and when I got to the opposite side of Hongyi, Zhong Yu moved a clean chair for me, and after I sat down, I said, "Hongyi, you want to see me, I'm here." If you have anything to say, just say it. ”

Hongyi's messy hair covered his face with blood, he raised his head slowly and seemed to look at me, and said in a hoarse voice: "Words, only talk to Your Majesty alone." ”

If I wasn't sure if the person who looked like this was Hongyi, after listening to his words, I was sure that although his voice was dry and hoarse, the voice was Hongyi's right.

Looking back at Yan Yu, I said, "Brother Lao Yan took Zhong Yu out to wait." ”

Yan Yu hesitated for a moment, and I said again: "It's okay, now it's just to untie the chain on his body and let him fight me, he can't beat me like this." ”

Only then did he convince Yan Yu, and after he glanced at Zhong Yu, the two of them left the torture cell in pairs.

Hearing their footsteps disappear in the distance, I spoke again, "Okay, you can speak." ”

After taking a few breaths with difficulty, Hongyi said with a low smile: "Your Majesty knows that since the battle of Liaocheng, Your Majesty has fallen into the divisive plan of the thunder duel. ”

I frowned, isn't the burning city the same city that Haoyuan lost the city last year, Yanyu rescued the twins, and was captured by the shadow guards into the palace of Emperor Heng?

Seeing that I was silent, Hongyi said again: "Now that Your Majesty has formed an alliance with Lei Jue again, does Your Majesty know that all this is in Lei Du's calculations?" ”

"What do you mean?" I had no idea what the hell Hongyi was talking about.

"Hehe......" Hongyi laughed in a deep voice, and then said slowly: "In the battle of Liaocheng, the goal of Lei Duel is not to capture the city, but to kill His Majesty's children and Prince Feng!" ”

I felt like my scalp was going to explode with a "buzz" in my head, so I picked up the broken teacup on the table and threw it at Hongyi and said, "I'm afraid you're not a fool!" That battle was clearly that Haoyuan withdrew too quickly and abandoned my two children! ”

Hongyi was smashed by me, and smiled even more happily, "Hehe, Your Majesty, no matter how bad my lord is, he will never abandon his young son when he evacuates!" The reason why the young son and Prince Feng were left alone was that Lei Jue attacked in the middle of the night, blocking the way for the prince to save them! ”

To be honest, Haoyuan's character is not very good, but I always feel that such a big man promised me to protect my child, but he just threw the child away when he ran away from the city, which is a little unreasonable. Originally, I only thought that Haoyuan was too spicy chicken, and he couldn't take care of others because he was too busy to take care of others, but this was just my unilateral self-justification, and I can't rule out other possibilities.

But Hongyi is a clever person who is good at provoking, and I have been fortunate to see it before. Now that he is running at the risk of his life, is it not just out of kindness that I can see the truth?

Sorting out my thoughts and pointing out the doubts, I said: "Okay, even if you are telling the truth, since Lei Jue has successfully attacked and blocked Haoyuan's access to save the child, then according to what you said, Lei Jue's next step should be to kill Prince Feng and the child." Why didn't you kill? ”

"Because, Shadow Guard. Lei Jue killed Prince Feng and his young son and couldn't be seen by anyone, so he could blame the prince of my family, but the shadow guard appeared, and Lei Du was not completely sure if there were other shadow guards hiding in the dark, so he could only stop. ”

I smiled and said, "According to what you said, Prince Feng should have fought with the Night Ghost Army and Lei Duel?" However, Prince Feng personally said that he took advantage of the chaos to escape in the Emperor Heng army, and did not fight the Night Ghost Army. ”

Hongyi said: "That night raid, the night ghost soldiers wore the armor of Emperor Heng, and Prince Feng's protector was very heartfelt, how could he distinguish the truth from the false." ”

"So what you mean is that night and night Youben had a chasing soldier to chase Prince Feng, ready to kill Prince Feng and the child, blame Haoyuan and say that Haoyuan killed him, and then you can make Xuancang and Di Heng completely break off. But Lei never expected to meet the shadow guard halfway, and for fear that the matter would be revealed, the pursuers immediately withdrew, and as a result, the shadow guard had a fight with Prince Feng and arrested Prince Feng and the child into the palace. ”

Hongyi said: "Exactly. ”

"Hahahaha!" I laughed out loud and said, "It's weird, why do you like to ponder Yeyou and Xuancang so much, don't you tell me what your prince did after he lost my child?" Did they evacuate immediately, or did they send people everywhere to look for the children again? As far as I know, it's the former. ”

Hongyi was silent.

After I laughed until I was weak, I said, "Hongyi, I don't know if you found out or not, I didn't pay attention to you when you provoked me and King Xian before." Now you're going to provoke me and Lei Duel, do you think I can take care of you? ”

Hongyi remained silent.

I pinched my eyebrows and said, "I'll give you another explanation, and you can listen to see if what I said makes sense." ”

This Hongyi said in a dumb voice: "Your Majesty, please speak." ”

I smiled and said: "Lei Jue is not a murderer, he learned that Haoyuan had captured Prince Feng and the child, so he took advantage of the night to sneak attack, wanting to rescue Prince Feng and the child back to the Yeyou military camp to take care of him." I didn't want the Diheng army to resist stubbornly, and the soldiers who attacked at night fought with the soldiers of Diheng, and Prince Feng couldn't distinguish between the enemy and me, so he had to flee with his son. Later, he met the shadow guard, was defeated, and was captured. ”

Hongyi paused for a long time, and then said: "Your Majesty can ask Prince Feng, that night, if anyone targeted him and his young son, you can know whether what Hongyi said is true or false!" ”

I sneered, "Hehe, Hongyi, if I guessed correctly, you will accompany Haoyuan in the army in the first battle of Liaocheng, right?" ”
