The big prison in Chuzhou is notoriously large, and this "big" does not refer to how wide the prison is, but to the fact that there are too many prisoners in it. Located on the border of the two countries, it is not peaceful, and through the Huai River, merchants are dense, so the bandits and bandits are very rampant.

When Li Yuan and Wang Jingyao rushed to the gate of the prison without stopping, they happened to bump into several jailers and several newly arrived prisoners, scolding and scolding. Presumably He Jingzhu had just ordered, Li Yuan showed his waist card, and the two of them were respectfully welcomed in by a group of jailers and officials.

As soon as he walked for a while, Li Yuan heard a thick voice behind him that was extremely magnetic.

"Li Yuhou?"

When I turned around, I saw that the person who came was holding a document in one hand and a pen in the other, and he saw that he had just finished questioning the prisoner from a cell, but his clothes were different from those of the jailers, he was dressed in a green official robe, a thin long face, a depressed beard, and a full literati dress.

Li Yuan said with some doubts: "Does Your Excellency know me?" ”

This person just smiled faintly, then stretched out his hand and pointed at Li Yuan and said, "Dare to ask how many young men in the imperial purple robe are there in this Tang Kingdom?" ”

Li Yuan was stunned for a moment, then shook his head and pretended to be mysterious: "I can't tell which of the founding princes I am the heir of?" ”

And this person looked indifferent, and pointed his finger at Wang Jingyao, who was timid beside Li Yuan: "If it is those gentlemen, there must be a large number of guards behind them." Could it be that this young lady is also extraordinary? ”

There's something interesting about this guy! Li Yuan didn't know the origin of this person, so he had to follow his words and say: "I won't tell you, this time I went to Chuzhou, and I also brought a battalion of forbidden troops——"

"I'm afraid they're all out of town, right? I have to say that Li Yuhou is careful in handling things, which not only avoids the truth, but also shocks people's hearts! ”

Li Yuan was a little surprised in his heart, these things were clearly what he said in the Assassin's Mansion, look at this person's dress at most a seven-grade petty official, and he has never seen it, how did he know? Hurriedly asked: "May I ask this gentleman, the honorable name?" ”

This person showed a look of neither humility nor arrogance, and said again and again: "Mr. doesn't dare to be, he is just a small state adjutant, and Xu Kuangheng joins the army in the judiciary." Fang Cai is just daring to guess, please forgive me for the rudeness! ”

"Sir, it doesn't have to be like this!" Li Yuan breathed a sigh of relief, fortunately, this person seemed to have good intentions towards him, otherwise it would not be a good thing for his mind to be so accurately grasped by him......

Immediately afterwards, Li Yuan turned around and continued to move forward with Wang Jingyao and the jailer, passing by rows of cold iron bars, witnessing the languishing prisoners one by one, and the whole process was extremely depressing in the dark prison. And that Xu Kuangheng didn't know why, he kept following closely behind him, but Li Yuan didn't stop him.

"Yasukuni! Yasukuni! "In the end, it is connected by blood, as soon as he stopped in front of a cell, Wang Jingyao recognized at a glance that the person imprisoned behind the iron railing was his younger brother Wang Jingguo, who had been thinking about him for many days.

Li Yuan looked at it for a while, the young man's hair in front of him was messy like weeds, and his prison uniform was also a little torn, and it was inevitable that he would be beaten when he went to prison. At this time, the young man's eyes, which were originally distracted, suddenly brightened up the moment he saw Wang Jingyao, and gradually moistened.

Seeing that her younger brother was in a mess, Wang Jingyao clutched the cold iron fence tightly and cried bitterly: "Yasukuni, Sister is here!" It's useless to teach you to suffer here......"

Li Yuan watched quietly from the side, sighed, originally couldn't bear to disturb the reunion of his sister and brother, but time was really pressing, and people's lives were at stake, if he was here just to cry, it would be meaningless.

So after a while, Li Yuan gently helped Wang Jingyao up, and said gently: "Sister Yao, you rest for a while, and I'll talk to him first." ”

Before the words fell, Wang Jingguo, who was behind the iron fence, didn't know where he got the strength, and shouted loudly: "Where did you come from?!" Still don't let go of Sister? ”

This sound startled the rats in the corner of the cell...... Li Yuan was very calm, smiled lightly, and said with a slight mockery: "Yo? I'm not very old, but I have a big temper! ”

Wang Jingyao wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes, and hurriedly persuaded: "Yasukuni must not be rude, Brother Yuan is here to help you!" ”

And Wang Jingguo just glared at Li Yuan, revealing an expression of gritted teeth: "Sister, don't be deceived!" I have been convicted of a capital crime, how can he help me? On the contrary, this person has bad intentions, Sister Don't be confused! ”

Li Yuan was angry and funny in his heart, looked at Wang Jingyao beside him and remembered everything she had encountered in recent days, and gradually sneered: "Hehe, who was deceived?" Not to mention such a big lawsuit, it will also affect your sister! ”

Wang Jingguo said loudly with an awe-inspiring face: "Nonsense! Who says I've been deceived? The man stood up to the sky, and when he was caught, I recognized it! It won't affect my sister! ”

Li Yuan rolled his eyes helplessly, you kid is stupid, aren't you? Why are you so naïve and take the initiative to take the blame? And he kept saying that he didn't bother your sister, and your sister was almost killed by you!

Thinking of poor Wang Jingyao, Li Yuan couldn't help it, and then said in a good voice: "Do you know your sister-"

"Brother Yuan'er ......"

The voice was interrupted, and when he turned his head, Wang Jingyao was biting his lip and throwing a pleading glance at him.

Li Yuan naturally understood her intentions, so he took a deep breath and asked again: "Wang Jingguo, let me ask you, just now you said that you were captured by mistake, do you know that you are transporting illicit salt?" ”

"I know."

Li Yuan had a headache, this kid is really honest, who is guilty of your crime?

"According to Tang law, selling smuggled salt is a felony, do you know?"

Wang Jingguo sat on the ground with a "snap", raised a little dust, raised his head and said, "Isn't it just a death?" Don't be afraid! What if you know, what if you don't know? ”

Suppressing his restless heart, Li Yuan patiently continued to ask: "Let me ask you again, you are only fourteen years old, where did all this private salt come from?" Who ordered you to escort you? As long as you tell the truth, I will definitely be able to help you. ”

But the young man spat on the ground, stared at Li Yuan viciously and said, "Don't try to trick me!" Come out and wander, the word of righteousness is the head! I'm telling you, this matter has nothing to do with anyone else. This salt is mine, and as for the escort, I am naturally here to sell it for money! Can you handle it? ”

Li Yuan's blood pressure soared instantly, and he couldn't help but yell: "I really vomited...... Boy, if it weren't for your sister's face, just a disloyal, unfilial, ruthless and unrighteous person like you, Lao Tzu wouldn't have looked at you at all! ”

Not to be outdone, this rebellious young man even rolled up his torn sleeves and said loudly: "Where did you come from to be disloyal, unfilial, ruthless and unrighteous? Don't splash dirty water on me! Do you believe me-"

Li Yuan shook his head that was a little numb, he was really angry with himself, how could he lose his temper with an ignorant doll? If this young man is born in the next life, I am afraid that he will live in a juvenile detention center for a few months......

So he glanced at it coldly and made a look of disdain: "How are you?" Are you going to hit me again? Can you get out? ”

Wang Jingguo roared angrily: "There is a kind of you coming in!" ”

Li Yuan grinned and said shyly: "There is a kind of you coming out!" Can't get out, can you? Gasped? Little fart, this official is the Marquis of His Majesty's Qinming Palace, how many flesh and blood have you seen on the battlefield?! If I do do it with you, believe it or not, I will tear down your bones and see how hard they are. ”

After saying that, he unbuttoned the round collar and patted the saber on his waist again, and the young man swallowed his saliva and did not say anything more.

Li Yuan put his hands behind his back, regained his serious look, pointed at Wang Jingguo and said with a sad face: "Let me tell you, what is disloyalty, unfilial piety, ruthlessness and unrighteousness!" You are disloyal to the court for trafficking in illicit salt! You are in prison, and you are ashamed of your parents' spirits in heaven, and you are unfilial! Your sister ran around for you to scatter all her family property, not to mention being frightened day and night, and even almost lost her body! Isn't it ruthless that you are still so stubborn?

Also, do you think that if you take all the blame on yourself, you are talking about righteousness? Bah! Fool who was sold and helped people count the money! You are only transporting, not the mastermind, and this crime is not unto death. I never thought that you were poured some ecstasy soup, but you had to protect the person behind it. In five days, once you are sent to Jinling Dali Temple, you must die! It's easy for you to die, but how can your sister live? How do you see your father and mother under the Nine Springs? And the person behind you, I guess I woke up laughing in my dreams, and I made a substitute for the dead, and he was still a righteous substitute for the dead! ”

These words seemed to have shattered the young man's beliefs, but he got up crookedly and shouted at Wang Jingyao: "Sister, is it true that he said that you scattered all your family property and almost lost your body?" ”

Wang Jingyao's red lips were clenched, and she didn't know how to answer.

Li Yuan walked a few steps closer and said sharply: "If it weren't for your sister finding me today, your sister would have been poisoned at this time!" Got it, boy? Your so-called righteous anger almost forced your sister to death! ”

Wang Jingguo seemed to have a blank brain, and was stunned for a moment, then bent his legs, knelt heavily on the ground, and then slammed on the ground.

"Sister! It's my sin that you have suffered so much! My brother kowtowed to you! ”

Listening to the dull sound of "dong dong dong" constantly coming from it, Wang Jingyao naturally couldn't bear it in her heart, and wanted to step forward with tears in her eyes: "Yasukuni ......"

Li Yuan grabbed her and shook his head with a gloomy face, because in his opinion, this ignorant Wang Jingguo should kowtow to his sister 10,000 times, and it is not worthy of pity. Wang Jingyao, you can afford it!

After a moment, Wang Jingguo, who was covered with blood on his forehead, looked depressed, and then said with a wry smile: "Sister, let's go!" I won't say that! Don't come to me again! ”

His eyes were on Li Yuan again, but he changed his expression, still with that fierce appearance: "As for you, I don't know who you are, but if you dare to bully my sister, I won't let you go!" ”

Hearing this, Li Yuan's heart felt as if he had been filled with mudslides, and he was extremely uplifted!

This Wang Jingguo is both naïve and ignorant of good and bad, and no matter how good or bad things are said, it doesn't make sense! I'm here to save you, what you said is awe-inspiring, and you are bent on death! I just showed my sword, but you were honest immediately, isn't this a hard-mouthed goods?

If it weren't for Wang Jingyao, he really wanted to leave him alone and let him live or die!

"Hmph, when a person dies, it's a handful of dust, and there's nothing left! What are you going to do not let me go? ”

Li Yuan's eyes rolled, and he suddenly had an idea, and then hugged Wang Jingyao hard, and his big hand deliberately groped on her slender shoulder, and said proudly: "By the way, the official told you, after you die, I will accept your sister as a concubine, and bully and abuse her every day. Hahaha! ”

This really hit Wang Jingguo's death hole, only to see the young man get up suddenly, the whole person threw himself on the iron railing, his eyes were red and roared: "Damn! Don't you dare?! ”

Li Yuan decided to add more fierce material, the corners of his mouth curled, and he said to Wang Jingyao: "Why don't I dare!" Come, little lady, kiss one for your husband~"

Wang Jingyao was stunned for a moment when she heard this, and at this time, seeing Li Yuan's face really coming towards her, she was instantly at a loss, and subconsciously panicked and said: "Brother Yuan'er......"

The play had to be done enough, and Li Yuan was also helpless, so he had to remind in a low voice: "You cooperate, quickly!" I'm sorry! ”

Wang Jingyao's little face was flushed, revealing a confused look, and said timidly: "Well......"

So in front of everyone's eyes, Wang Jingguo watched Li Yuan pout, kissed his sister on the cheek hard, and seemed to hug it tighter! The small volcano erupted instantly: "I'm into your mother's!" Dog officer! Beast! ”

While slapping the iron fence hard, he gritted his teeth and roared angrily: "Sister, this dog official is light on you, why don't you resist?!" ”

Wang Jingyao's ears seemed to be blocked at this time, and she was stunned in place, urinating as a woman, her face and heart were hot and dry at this time, not to mention that in front of her younger brother, she was so light and thin by Li Yuan, so she was not ashamed!

But at this time, she dimly realized that when Li Yuan was close to her, although she knew that she was acting on the spot, she didn't have much idea of resisting......

Thinking about it for a while, Wang Jingyao shook her head, hurriedly sorted out her chaotic thoughts, and then gritted her teeth and said timidly: "Yasukuni, sister, sister can't ......"

I have to say that Wang Jingyao's expression is really in place, Wang Jingguo saw his sister's aggrieved expression, and almost collapsed: "Dog officer, you are kind of coming at me!" Don't force my sister! Don't force my sister! ”

"You're a dying ant, you're a fart! This official is forcing your sister! ”

Li Yuan smiled lightly, hugged the delicate Wang Jingyao and turned around and strode away, and said in a loud voice: "Let's go, Xiao Yaoyao!" This official will take you home and have fun! Let this kid fend for himself! ”

Seeing that Li Yuan was about to leave with his sister forcibly hugged his sister "with power", Wang Jingguo clenched his fists, as if he had made up his mind, and finally spoke: "Don't you just want to know the mastermind behind it, so that you can ask for credit?!" ”

Li Yuan immediately turned around, secretly happy in his heart, waiting for your words! After that, he immediately reacted, this kid really has no conscience! Could it be that he thinks I saved him to invite credit?

In line with the principle of first cliché, Li Yuan did not refute, but nodded with a smile and said, "Yes, it's really smart!" The case of illegal salt is a big case, if the main culprit can be caught, it will be a great achievement! This official will definitely be promoted! ”

Wang Jingguo said with a look of disdain: "Phew! Sure enough, it's a dog officer! ”

"Then do you want to talk about it?"

"If I say it, will you let my sister go?"

Li Yuan didn't have much patience anymore, and glanced at Wang Jingyao meaningfully, then straightened up and said, "Ahem! Boy, are you qualified to negotiate terms with this official? Let's talk about it, as for whether to let go of your sister, it naturally depends on the mood of the official! ”

Seeing that Wang Jingguo had a relaxed appearance, Wang Jingyao sighed, approached and said, "Yasukuni, you told Brother Yuan truthfully!" He is a good man and sincerely comes to help you! ”

As soon as the good guy card was issued, Li Yuanmu Ran hurriedly let go of the hand holding Wang Jingyao, since Wang Jingguo was not inaccessible, then he persuaded again: "You listen to me, I deliberately provoked you!" Your father was my enlightened husband, and I will never bully your sister! Wang Jingguo, you are still young, and you still have a lot of good years after that! If you die, not only will your Wang family cut off the incense, but your sister will also be sad for the rest of her life!

Brother, let me tell you the truth, you keep the person behind you, in your own eyes, it is righteousness. But if you think about it, what did those people do to you? Have they ever seen you since you went to prison? Have I ever told you about righteousness? Maybe they're drinking wine and eating meat, holding women and making fun of you! ”

Wang Jingguo seemed to be really thinking about Li Yuan's words, but at the same time, he kept shaking his head violently and said to himself: "Impossible, the sixth brother will never lie to me!" He said that the word righteousness is the first, and I will wait for my brothers to drink good wine and divide gold and silver together......"

Alas, the boy was really induced...... Li Yuan suddenly thought inexplicably that hundreds of years later, in a certain water village in Shandong, how many heroes and heroes were fooled in the past, and finally they were fooled so that their lives were gone, and they called "brother righteousness"......

No longer thinking about what is right or wrong, Li Yuan eased his expression, stared at the somewhat messy young man and said, "As long as you tell me the truth, I will definitely try to save you and reunite with your sister!" Don't let your sister suffer again! ”

On the dark and cold ground, Wang Jingguo sat sluggishly, his hands kept rubbing together.

It wasn't until a moment later that he finally raised his head and gritted his teeth and said, "That day, I went to the east of the city ......."
