Chapter 29: Sean Gets Out of Prison
The heavy iron door was slowly opened, and the cardinal, which had been oiled and maintained, did not make a creaking sound, but this silent pressure made everyone in the Supervision House guarding the door begin to feel nervous.
Fan Xian lowered his head slightly, and his left eyelid jumped twice. He felt a faint aura coming from behind the iron door a little cold, it seemed that the person who should have been seventy or eighty years old, should just live on the yellow paper of history, after being imprisoned for twenty years, still exuded the breath of a spy leader from his bones.
The sound of the iron rope dragging on the stone road was a little harsh, and the sound was getting louder and louder, which meant that the person inside was getting closer and closer to the big iron gate.
Fan Xian raised his head, looked at the big iron gate with a calm face, and thought to himself how Chen Pingping led the black cavalry to raid thousands of miles during the Second Northern Expedition and captured Sean who secretly returned to his hometown to attend the wedding back to Northern Qi.
After Sean was captured by Qingguo, Qingguo went on another Northern Expedition, and it was not until after the three Northern Expeditions that the powerful Northern Wei Dynasty was dying, and finally split into countless small countries. The one who directly inherited the power and most of the territory of the Northern Wei Dynasty was the Northern Wei Dynasty Jiedu envoy of the year, and the founding name was Qi.
This is the origin of the Northern Qi Kingdom today, when the marshal of Zhan Qingfeng was innocently demoted, the Northern Wei Dynasty would fall apart, but in the end, it was the Zhan family who was born suddenly from this mess, this world is really a bit wonderful.
............ The chΕ«n sun gently shone through the tall trees outside the prison and spilled on the iron door, leaving a dappled mark of light on the door, and at the same time lightly imprinting on the old face, the sound of the chain mopping the floor abruptly stopped, and an old sigh rang out.
The four swordsmen in the six places of the Supervision Yuan outside the iron gate held the noose tightly as if they were facing a great enemy, and the flail in the middle was far away, and there was a person in the flail, the man was covered with messy hair, his hair was already completely white, and he looked messy, his wrists and feet were all shackles made of jΔ«ng steel, but the clothes on his body were extremely clean.
The old sigh came from the withered lips that came from this person's messy hair, and after the sigh, I only heard the old man sigh faintly: "The smell of sunshine has been lost for a long time." β
This is naturally Sean, who has been imprisoned by Qingguo for twenty years, seeing him come out of the prison, everyone in the supervision house in charge of guarding around him became nervous for no reason, and seemed to smell the slightly sweet smell of blood in the air, Fan Xian frowned slightly, feeling that this person's breath was really easy to madden. Everyone clenched their waist knives in their hands, or tightened the trigger of their crossbows with their fingers, and aimed at the tall but slumped old man.
There was a muffled bang!
The former host of the seven places, and now the cell boss with cloudy eyes stepped forward and hit Sean on the back with a stick for no reason!
Sean didn't seem to feel anything, slowly turned his head to look at the former director of the seven departments of the Supervision Yuan, exhaled lightly, blew away the messy hair in front of him, revealing those cold and deep eyes, and those dry lips, and said in a hoarse voice: "Old neighbor, we have lived together for twenty years, and I am leaving, so you will send me like this?"
The former director of the seven places slowly closed his eyes, lowered his hand holding the wooden stick, seemed to be a little afraid of Sean's eyes, and breathed hard twice and said: "These are juniors, why do you provoke them? If the children kill you by mistake at this time, I don't think you will be reconciled." β
Sean blinked slowly, glancing at the beautiful young man in the crowd surrounding him.
Fan Xian found that the other party was looking at him, forcibly stabilized his mind with his true qi, and smiled slightly.
Sean was a little surprised that such a young junior was so calm, shook his head slightly, and said to the cell leader: "I left Qingguo, and you don't have to stay in the prison anymore." But I think you'd really want me dead, or I'll have a way for you to pay me back after twenty years of companionship. β
The cell boss was expressionless: "I wish you a smooth journey and never come back." β
Sean hissed and laughed, "I will definitely come back." He looked at the cell boss's face and whispered word by word: "As many punishments you have used on me, I will use them on your children in the same way." β
The cell leader closed his eyes tightly, knowing that if Sean could regain control of the dark power of Northern Qi, then it would be extremely difficult for him to have the ability to protect his family if he specifically retaliated against himself.
Sean looked up to the sky and laughed, and the heavy chains on his body began to rattle, as if he was also afraid that this terrifying figure was about to get zìyóu.
Everyone in the Supervision House was extremely nervous, only Fan Xian listened to the resentment in the other party's laughter, and in addition to being slightly nervous, he narrowed his eyes, still very puzzled why the eldest princess was playing this hand.
............ The air outside the prison was tense, and it seemed that a faint glow of blood was emanating from the body of the man in the shackles.
At this moment, there was a squeak, and the ordinary, black wheelchair slowly approached the flail.
It was Fei Jie who was pushing the wheelchair, and Chen Pingping was sitting in the wheelchair.
The sound of the wheelchair rolling was not loud, but it was like a Buddhist bell, freeing everyone from their nervous feelings. When everyone saw the dean coming, they breathed a sigh of relief at the same time for no apparent reason.
Facing Sean nervously, because he didn't know what this legendary character would do once he got out of the prison.
As soon as Chen Pingping came, everyone was relieved, because all the officials of the Supervision Yuan deeply believed that as long as Dean Chen was in one day, Sean would not be able to rebel against the sky.
Chen Pingping slowly raised her head, looked at the old acquaintance in the flail, and said softly, "What are you laughing at?" There was a hint of disdain in her words, a hint of amusement.
Sean, who was full of messy hair, looked at Chen Pingping in a wheelchair, and suddenly said, "I laughed at your legs, ruined in my hands." β
Chen Pingping smiled and shook her head: "I thought you were laughing at your miserable life, you have been imprisoned by me for 20 years, what else do you need to say? I am the winner, you are the loser, this is a fact that history has long been doomed, and you can never change it." β
Sean roared angrily, his white hair scattered backwards like a sword, and in a rage, he took two steps forward, and the chains shook violently, and the four six-place swordsmen who were pulling the heavy flail worked hard to hold him.
Chen Pingping was not nervous at all, looked at him pitifully and said, "At such an old age, why are you still so angry?"
Sean suddenly closed his eyes and stood up to the sky, and after a long time, his eyes opened, and he said awe-inspiringly: "Chen Pingping, do you really dare to let me go back to the north?"
Chen Pingping smiled and said: "Go back and take care of the elderly, be safer, now I am also an old arm and old leg, I am too lazy to run so far to catch you back." β
Sean's voice was as sharp as a knife, and the old voice was like rust on a knife, scratching everyone's ears: "My son died at your hands at the wedding, and I don't think you will have any chance to catch me again." β
Chen Pingping beckoned, Fan Xian walked over with a smile on his face, and the closer he got to Sean, the more he felt the other party's natural coldness, but his face remained unchanged.
"We are already old, what else can you do? In case we want to arrest you in the future......" Chen Pingping smiled and said: "Sean, his name is Fan Xian, he is my successor, I am going to the north, I will accompany you all the way, I think you will not be lonely." β
Sean turned sideways slightly, the flail collided with the iron cables on his hands and feet, and the old man looked at the young, delicate official of the Supervision Yuan through the hair in front of him, and did not speak for a long time. Fan Xian saw the lingering resentment in Sean's eyes at this time.
Fei Jie, who was pushing a wheelchair, said slowly: "Lord Sean, I gave the poison at that wedding. Coincidentally, Fan Xian was my student. β
Chen Pingping and Fei Jie smiled at the same time, and Fan Xian smiled just rightly and said: "Senior Sean, so if there is anything after the rΓ¬, naturally I will accompany you." β
Sean laughed twice, but there was no trace of pleasure in the laughter, just yΔ«n cold blood killing. The biggest fiasco in his life was due to Chen Pingping and Fei Jie, but he didn't expect that the young man who escorted him back to the north on this trip would have such a deep relationship with them. He looked at Fan Xian slightly sideways, and said word by word: "You are still too tender, you have to pay more attention on the road." β
Fan Xian bowed very politely: "Along the way, you will learn from your predecessors." β
The grass beside the ββββββββββββββββββββββββ road was like jasper silk, and there were low chΕ«n branches hanging in the sky on the side of the convoy, and the silent convoy left the prison of the Supervision Yuan and walked along Tianhe Avenue to the north city.
The side gate of the imperial city was closed, and the Ouchi Commander Gong Dian looked indifferently at the train fleet on the long street in the distance, and suddenly said, "I appreciate Fan Xian very much. β
The general beside him frowned and said, "My lord?"
The corners of Gong Dian's lips curled slightly and said, "You haven't dealt with Sean, so you don't know how dangerous this trip is." Fan Xian is now famous all over the world, and there is no need for him to go to Northern Qi, but this kid actually has the courage to respond to this errand...... I do admire him. β
............ Fan Xian sat in the first carriage and closed his eyes to recuperate, the real envoy had already left Kyoto yesterday, and his own group and his own envoy were dragged to the end because of the secret agreement between Sean and Bingyun. He had stopped the ridiculous idea of his family coming to see him off last night, and his whole mind was on the task of the trip.
Fan Xian seemed to be about to fall asleep with the ups and downs of the carriage, but he was thinking about many things in his heart, in addition to Sean, the red sleeve plan of the manager was also very tricky. Only then did he think that the soft woman who had been grinding all night was in the carriage behind, and he couldn't help but be slightly stunned.
At this moment, the carriage jolted, and he knew that the carriage had run over the stone barrier at the north gate of Kyoto.
