The twenty-third round of the Criminal Department Prison XXIII
As a result of the discovery of this secret passage, the prisoners contacted privately to find their loved ones. A prisoner who knows some medical skills secretly treats the wounded prisoner. Since there is no medicine in hand, it can only be used to provide simple bone grafting and pain relief for the injured. But this is enough, just like Yu Mian doesn't have to lie on the ground and wait for death, he is already very satisfied with being able to move at close range by himself. Yu Mian's injuries healed a little, and with the help of other prisoners, he climbed into the secret passage to meet his father Yu Qian. Yu Qian is more open than his son, and hopes that his son will persevere, and maybe he will have a chance to live. There is a possibility of being released from the prison of the Criminal Department in the future, Yu Qian does not want his children and grandchildren to become officials again, just be a common man with peace of mind.
After a long time, Ming Yingzong finally remembered these people, and under the pressure of the ministers, Ming Yingzong agreed to release a group of prisoners. However, when Ming Yingzong released these prisoners, Ming Yingzong ordered the massacre of a group of officials and their immediate families. Yu Mian and the children of several officials were hidden in a secret passage by everyone, so that they were saved from being killed. Yu Qian and other officials were still assassinated by the Jinyi guard sent by the Ming Ying Sect, and even the corpse did not dare to restrain it. It was not the real Yu Qian and other officials who were sent to the vegetable market to be beheaded, but just some "scapegoats".
A year later, the last batch of criminals in this case were released, including Yu Mian, who was hidden in it. Yu Mian found his father's clothed mound, knelt for three days and three nights, and then left the capital alone, never to return to the capital. When Yu Mian was leaving, he personally made four spirit cards, one was Yu Qian's, one was Yu Qian's, one was Yu Qian's' wife's, one was Yu Mian's' wife's Yu Song's, and one was Yu Mian's' sister Yu Chengzhu's. Since then, Yu Mian has settled in a small town in the south, cultivated and studied heirlooms for generations, and no longer became an official to gain fame.
The last group of prisoners to leave the secret passage told a kinder jailer about the secret passage as they were leaving. The jailer tried to go inside, and found that there was a lot of space inside, with many secret rooms. He secretly arranged his own lounge inside, and began to clean up the secret passages and secret rooms. This jailer is Lao Mo's master, which means that Lao Mo's master is the future apprentice of this jailer. This secret was also told to Lao Mo privately by the jailer's apprentice, and Lao Mo had continued this secret for nearly fifty years. Except for a very small number of his own people who know about it, even Lao Mo's apprentice is not too clear for the time being.
Lao Mo not only told Qin Tai and Zhan Xiaoxiao what he knew, but also took Qin Tai and Zhan Xiaoxiao through the secret passage. Lao Mo told Qin Tai that there were some unknown people locked up in the fifth layer, as well as a group of prisoners who had gone crazy. You must not enter the fifth layer casually, otherwise you will not only worry about your life, but also startle the snake.
Qin Tai returned to the secret room, asked for a rest, and then left the secret passage with his wife Zhan Xiaoxiao. I promise that I won't tell outsiders everything here, and I promise that I won't betray Lao Mo and Wang Tong. Lao Mo said the way of going out again, Qin Tai and Zhan Xiaoxiao repeated it, and after making sure that it was accurate, Lao Mo left.
Zhan Xiaoxiao didn't know why her husband Qin Tai didn't leave here immediately, but she definitely supported her husband and would cooperate with her husband Qin Tai's actions. Qin Tai and Zhan Xiao stayed in the pitch-black secret room, and the outside was the same dark secret passage. Qin Tai and Zhan Xiaoxiao only had a small piece of fire in their hands, which was the last hope to go out, and they were reluctant to use it casually.
Qin Tai patted his wife Zhan Xiaoxiao, and Zhan Xiaoxiao immediately understood what her husband Qin Tai meant. Zhan Xiaoxiao stood at the door of the secret room, taking care of her husband Qin Tai, although she didn't know why Qin Tai did this, but Zhan Xiaoxiao would definitely obey Qin Tai's orders.
Qin Tai was inside the secret room, constantly patting and stroking the surroundings of the secret room with his hands. When Qin Tai and Lao Mo were talking, they saw the appearance of the secret room, the dark walls, blurred in the light. But when Qin Tai inadvertently touched the wall, he found that there were inscriptions on the wall of the secret room. These words or drawings cannot be seen clearly by ordinary people. Qin Tai had experienced this kind of thing in the original Xiaoyue Village, so he knew that it was a visual error, and he could only discover the secret by touching it with his hands. So he went back to the chamber once more, ready to pet and read the message.
Qin Tai spent a stick of incense and finally touched the four walls of the secret room, and found that there were many scratches on the walls, but they were not left by one person. Closer to the secret passage, there were some scribbled words carved with his fingernails, which were left by the scholar who built the prison of the Criminal Department. The scholar complains about this world endlessly, mixed with the tragic situation he saw with his own eyes and the longing for his family. The scholar's writing is too pedantic, and it seems that he is not a flexible person, but simply a nerd.
Next to the scholar's writing, there is a notch of another person. This man is not suitable for fingernail carving, as if he had engraved words in broken porcelain. This man is not very human, but he is neatly marked, and he is a rich man with status. He recorded a history unknown to outsiders, telling a court struggle that was unimaginable to outsiders. This man is a man of honour from birth, after meritorious service. His father was proficient in eating, drinking, prostituting and gambling, and never had to do anything for the court, but he didn't live long, and he went to see his ancestors in his twenties. As the eldest son in the family, he inherited the title at the age of six and became a super-first-class official. His mother was worried that he would not be able to raise him, so he was not allowed to follow his father's example, and a large group of gentlemen and teachers followed him every day, forcing him to study and practice martial arts. He is a bit of a distant relative of Ming Yingzong, so he has a good relationship with Ming Yingzong, who is the same age. When Ming Yingzong drove his own expedition, he happened to be a father, so he was left in the capital by Ming Yingzong. After Ming Yingzong was captured, the Warat army immediately surrounded the capital, and as one of the few generals who stayed in the capital, of course he had to hold the capital. Yu Qian came to him and asked him to help persuade the Empress Dowager Sun to set up a new emperor to stick to the capital. He participated in the whole process of abolishing the new emperor and became one of the imaginary enemies of Ming Yingzong. After Ming Yingzong was reinstated, he cracked down on disobedient ministers, and he was arrested and imprisoned in the Criminal Department along with Yu Qian. Ming Yingzong not only targeted him, but also erased the merits of their family for generations, and he was very disappointed in Ming Yingzong. Knowing that Ming Yingzong was going to kill him and Yu Qian, he was not as afraid of death as Yu Qian, and hid in the secret room. Waiting for the opportunity to leave the prison of the Ministry of Punishment, he can not want any glory and wealth in order to survive. As for whether he left the prison of the Ministry of Punishment, no one knows. Even if he leaves the prison of the Criminal Department, he will not talk about himself to outsiders in a big way.
In the corner closest to the inside, there is a notch that does not belong to these two people. This person only left a mysterious text, "The seven-layer prison of the Criminal Department, go to heaven and go to hell." It's easy to go to the sky, but it's too hard to get down to the ground. You can't live long when you see the sky, but you can't live a long life in hell. Qin Tai guessed the meaning inside, as if he was saying that the prison of the Criminal Department has seven floors, and if you go out, you may not be able to live, and if you stay in the prison of the Criminal Department, you may not necessarily die. However, there are only five floors in the prison of the Criminal Department, how can it be said that it is seven floors? Qin Tai immediately remembered the two floors above ground, if the upper two floors were added, the prison of the Criminal Department was really seven floors. However, Qin Tai always felt that this text would not be so simple, but he couldn't think of any clues for a while.
Looking further clockwise, I found another person's nick. This is the only message left by a female prisoner who records another evil in the prison of the penal department. The status of the female prisoner is quite high, and she is simply an authentic royal relative, but who would have thought that she would end up like this? She is the niece of Empress Dowager He, who is Emperor Jingtai's biological mother, Concubine He. Concubine He is a poor woman, Empress Dowager Sun and the first emperor have a deep husband and wife, and Empress Sun at that time strongly suppressed the other concubines of **, especially for concubines with children. Because Concubine He has a son, she is especially taken care of by Queen Sun, and Concubine He can hardly even see her husband and son. The first emperor not only handled government affairs in the previous dynasty, but also went to Empress Sun to accompany Empress Sun, and all the princes had to be handed over to Empress Sun to raise. As a result, Concubine He couldn't see her husband and son several times a year, and every time she saw her son, she cried bitterly. After Ming Yingzong ascended the throne, Concubine He was named Concubine He, but it was forbidden to associate with the biological son who was already the prince. Concubine He was not named the empress dowager until her own son Emperor Jingtai became emperor, and from then on she could sit on an equal footing with Empress Dowager Sun. Empress Dowager He is prosperous, her mother's family is also prosperous, and the female prisoner is also canonized as the lord of Zhenguo County. The female prisoner's own sister was sent to the palace by the Empress Dowager He and served as a concubine for Emperor Jingtai's cousin, so the female prisoner was not only Emperor Jingtai's cousin, but also Emperor Jingtai's sister-in-law.
The female prisoner never imagined that she would have such a result. She had just married her husband and was ready to live a life of husband and children, but she became a prisoner overnight. At first, the jailers in the prison of the Criminal Department did not dare to target her, because after all, she was a relative of the emperor, and everyone didn't know if Emperor Jingtai would make a comeback. Soon after, the treatment of female prisoners changed dramatically, not only was the special treatment removed, but some people began to abuse her. A few days later, her husband was dragged out by a group of jailers and played with monkeys in public. She knew that her good life was over, and the next step was for the jailers to start dealing with her. It was at this time that she discovered a secret, she had been pregnant for nearly a month, and she was going to be a mother. She really wants to keep her children and leave an offspring for her husband's family who may die. Because of herself, her husband's family has all been imprisoned, and it is very likely that the whole family will not survive. She wants to leave the last bit of blood for her husband's family, and also leave a support for herself.
