Chapter 529: Heavenly Prison
Although the prison has a lofty name, it is still a prison, and it is also held by death row prisoners and felons. The surrounding area is even more barren and remote, the environment is extremely harsh, and there are heavy guards nearby, to ensure that not a single fly can fly out of this prison!
In the past few days, the guards of the prison have become stricter, let alone coming out, even if they go in every day to deliver food, they have to be carefully checked. And somehow, the guards guarding the prison also unconsciously changed a batch, if it weren't for the fact that those who delivered food had to deal with these soldiers every day, I am afraid that no one would have noticed anything strange at this time.
Just after noon, the sound of horses' hooves sounded outside the prison, and the sound was hurried, and it was speeding towards this direction. After hearing the sound, the garrisons, who were originally lazy and lazy in the sun, instantly came to their senses, and quickly stood up straight, looking intently at the direction from which the sound came.
With a command, the garrison saw several big black horses rushing towards them, and they could even feel the hot breath coming out of the horses' noses. Looking at the horse's head close at hand, the garrison stepped back, and finally looked up to see the man on horseback.
"See the Regent!" The garrison was startled but quickly reacted, knelt down on one knee and gave a military salute.
Wei Xiao on the back of the big black horse pulled his mouth and smiled, looking at Yun Shumo who was sitting on the back of the Shenjun Baixing next to him, Yun Shumo looked at those garrisons condescendingly, and a trace of disdain flashed in his eyes.
"Who are you?" Yun Shumo asked.
The garrison was even more frightened in their hearts, they were the soldiers of the Han family, and they obeyed the orders of the Han family to drive away all the soldiers who were originally guarding here, and those who could not be driven away were also squeezed out elsewhere. But even if the Han family gains power, it is the great qi who is the courtier of their Yun family, and it is their duty for these soldiers to protect the country. So at this moment, in the face of the regent Yun Shumo, they were extremely weak-hearted.
Yun Shumo looked at them like this, without saying a word.
The garrisons were so frightened by this atmosphere that they couldn't help but tremble, and after a long time, one of the garrisons trembled and said, "Back to the prince, we are the Han family army, and we are ordered by the general to guard the heavenly prison." ”
"General Ben remembers that guarding the prison is the task of Yu Linwei." Wei Xiao bent down and smiled at the garrison, looking like he was not in shape. However, the meaning of his words is chilling. Wei Xiao continued, "This heavenly prison is the important place of our Great Qi, without the emperor's order, you General Han can actually transfer people away, really, the group is monstrous!" ”
This exclamation scared the garrison out of a cold sweat, they also know the movements in Yongjing City these days, and the actions in the army are even more weird, not to mention why the general wants them to take this prison, and I don't know why they have to firmly guard Fengyi Palace and Qingxuan Palace. They feel that this is not right, not to mention the prison, just the sleeping palace of the Queen Mother and the Queen Mother is something that these soldiers can casually offend, this is a big disrespect!
But as soldiers, it is their duty to obey orders, and even if they don't want to, they have to obey orders. But at this moment, they regretted it, in the face of absolute power and pressure, the Han family's military orders were like a talisman for them.
Wei Xiao smiled, but he didn't embarrass them anymore and just said: "Don't forget, although you are all trained in the Han family, you are still Da Qi's people in the end, and this Da Qi is not surnamed Han." ”
The soldiers hung their heads one after another, not daring to say anything.
"Get up." Yun Shumo turned over and dismounted, threw the reins to Wei Xiao, walked up to the soldier who spoke earlier, and said, "This king asks you, has there been a girl in the prison recently?" ”
As soon as the soldier stood up, he was asked and almost fell to the ground, although he felt that it was a little strange for Prince Rui to come to the prison to care about a girl's family, but he didn't dare to arrange it. After thinking about it for a while, he immediately nodded and said, "Yes, yes, they just came a few days ago, and they were sent by the concubine herself." ”
Yun Shumo nodded, "Take this king with you." ”
Prince Rui wanted to enter the prison, but they didn't dare to stop him, so they hurriedly led the way in front.
The name of the prison is good, but in fact, the environment is not better than the prison cell of a government, and as soon as I entered, I felt a damp pavement that was difficult to hide, and there was a sense of meaning. Yun Shumo subconsciously frowned, but immediately regained his expressionless face.
Past a place that resembles a living room is a long hallway. On both sides of the aisle are cages, each of which is made of fine iron railings, which lock the people inside tightly, so that people can't escape at all, and can only spend the rest of their lives here in despair.
It's like a pool of stagnant water, even if Yun Shumo and they walked by, they didn't make any waves, and no one even wanted to get up and take a look.
Wei Xiao had been to the prison before, and some of the prisoners here were brought in by his own hands, and he actually pointed to the people he knew with great interest and introduced them to Yun Shumo. Maybe it was quiet in the prison, so Yun Shumo didn't stop Wei Xiao's broken thoughts, and he didn't even feel noisy.
The soldiers took Yun Shumo and Wei Xiao all the way to the innermost part of the prison, where there was an independent cell, which looked very clean, at least the straw on the ground could still see the original color. A girl was curled up in a corner, her hair covering her face, making it difficult to see her face.
"Lord Wang, this is this girl." The soldier looked at the girl, because he couldn't figure out Yun Shumo's attitude, so he didn't know what to say at the moment.
Yun Shumo looked at the people in the cell, his clothes were intact and he didn't seem to be abused. Because he didn't see his face, he couldn't be sure that the person in front of him was Le Xin. Yun Shumo stepped forward and knocked on the railing, and the girl in the cell shrank when she heard the sound, and then raised her head slowly.
Although the girl's face is blocked by hair a lot, and there is still dirt on the face, it is not difficult to see that the girl's appearance is very good, although it is not as good as Hua Qingyan, but it is also Zhong Lingyuxiu.
Yun Shumo can be sure now, the girl in front of him is Le Xin.
Yun Shumo didn't confirm further, but looked at the soldier: "Open the door." ”
The soldier was a little embarrassed, but in the face of Shangyun Shumo's inky black eyes, he immediately took out the key to the cell and opened the lock tremblingly.
The girl watched their movements with her eyes open, and the moment the door opened, she seemed to be even more frightened, and her whole body was about to shrink into a ball. Yun Shumo stepped into the cell, stepped on the straw and slowly walked to the girl, and slowly squatted down to look at her.
Yun Shumo opened his mouth, but he didn't make a sound.
Le Xin's eyes became more vigilant, she understood the shape of this person's mouth, and said his own name!
A smile flashed in Yun Shumo's eyes, and he opened his mouth again. This time, Le Xin's eyes widened, full of disbelief.
This person is actually Prince Rui, and he is here to pick him up!
Le Xin was shocked and at the same time extremely happy, she could finally leave this place! God knows how she's survived these days! He was on guard all the time, and he didn't dare to close his eyes at all.
Yun Shumo stretched out his hand to Le Xin, and Le Xin reached out to hold it without hesitation. Yun Shumo pulled Le Xin up from the ground with his backhand. After Le Xin stood firmly, he immediately let go of Yun Shumo's person, and stood in a proper manner, not daring to take advantage of Prince Rui at all. Yun Shumo nodded at her and said, "Don't say anything, don't think about anything, just follow me." ”
Le Xin originally wanted to ask about Concubine Su and her child, but when she heard Yun Shumo say this, she put all the questions down. The person in front of him is Prince Rui, if Concubine Su and the child were not saved, this person would not have appeared in this prison, thus saving himself.
Yun Shumo led Le Xin out of the cell, and the soldier saw that the prince was going to take away the prisoner sent by the concubine, and his face showed embarrassment, if he let people out, the concubine Niangniang naturally couldn't blame Prince Rui, but they were afraid that those who were subordinates would suffer. Therefore, he subconsciously took a step forward to block Yun Shumo's way: "Lord Wang......"
"Oh, when did our well-resourced regent be so idle that he actually had time to visit the prison?" At this time, Han Mi'er, who received the news, rushed over and happened to block Yun Shumo and them. Although Han Mi'er hated Yun Shumo so much, she couldn't help but smile when she saw this person, wanting to show him her best side, and even her voice was extremely charming.
It's a pity that Yun Shumo's eyes just fell on her face lightly and skillfully, and he didn't pay attention to her at all, didn't reply or say anything else, and led Le Xin forward by himself.
Seeing Han Mi'er, Le Xin instinctively felt a little afraid, she knew who ordered the fire to the cold palace, and she also knew who wanted to snatch her child, so this fear was filled with infinite anger and resentment! That's right, their Hua family had a previous catastrophe, and it was also from this woman's hand!
Le Xin's eyes hidden under her eyes locked on Han Mi'er for a moment, such a strong hatred, Han Mi'er naturally felt it, but she felt like she was being targeted by a poisonous snake lurking in the dark, the snake spit snake apricots may come up and bite her neck at any time, poisoning her mercilessly!
Han Mi'er shivered involuntarily, her eyes fell on Le Xin, and a trace of surprise flashed on her face. But soon she cleaned up her mood again and said with a smile: "Where is the prince going to take my prisoner?" This girl was originally from my palace, but she actually tried to poison me, and I caught her. Lord, this person is guilty of a capital crime, although you are the regent, it seems unruly to take people away in such an orderly manner. ”
Yun Shumo snorted coldly: "Whether it is in line with the rules or not, it doesn't matter if you say it." Saying that, she chuckled again, "Han Mi'er, you said that this is the palace maid in the palace, can you tell this king her name?" ”
