Chapter 183: Turning to ashes, he also recognizes it

Since he is a death row inmate, he should have been executed on another date.

But he always felt in his heart that he couldn't do this, so he put it off again and again.

Later, when I thought about it, looking at the woman's appearance, she was already on the verge of death, and she didn't care about it, maybe she would go west one day?

So I didn't think about it again.

One day, he rode with the army through the prison camp.

The general in front of him turned around and asked him, "Qi Jing, is the woman you mentioned earlier locked up here?" ”

Qi Jing was stunned for a moment, came back to his senses, and hurriedly led the way.

As the two of them walked deeper into the prison camp, he prayed silently in his heart, hoping that the woman in the prison would hold on and not die so soon.

——

A large number of soldiers in armor suddenly poured into the prison camp, all armed with long knives, and the jailers had never seen this array of staffs, and greeted them respectfully.

He recognized that the person walking in front was Qi Jing, who had come a few days ago, and hurriedly saluted him, and asked in a low voice: "Lord Qi, dare to ask ...... this"

Qi Jing ignored him and said to the man in gold armor beside him, "People are locked up in this cell. ”

King Ling looked at the cell that Qi Jing was referring to, and there was indeed a woman lying inside, and the environment was too dim for people outside to see her true face.

She lay motionless on the ground, looking at it from such a distance through the fence, it didn't look like a living thing.

Zhao Yan frowned and asked, "What about the fire?" ”

"Ignition!"

With a command, more than a dozen torches were lit at the same time, and the entire prison camp suddenly became transparent.

The prisoners in the cell had not seen the light of day for a long time, and they were stunned for a moment after being in the darkness for a long time, and then they shouted excitedly.

With the cries of the soldiers, the shouting was quickly stopped.

The moment the torch was lit, the woman raised her hand to block her eyes.

It seemed that she was still alive, Qi Jing couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, and he asked Zhao Yan for instructions: "Your Highness, can you drag people out?" ”

His "Your Highness" scared the jailers on the side enough.

"Don't bother." Zhao Yan took the torch from a soldier behind him, raised his feet and bent into the cell.

The torch shone at the woman, who was not used to the strong light, squinted and turned her head to look at him.

This time, Zhao Yan saw the woman's face full of dirt.

Zhao Yan's heart twitched violently, the face in front of him, not to mention full of dirt, even if it turned to ashes, he recognized it.

It's just that all this is so incredible that he is a little unsure.

…… Could it really be her?

Shen Qing knew that he had a fever, and it was still the kind that had a high fever for several days in a row.

Just as she was burning in a daze, the surroundings suddenly lit up, and even with her eyes closed, she could still feel the light and heat.

She opened her eyes slowly, but her eyes, which had been in darkness for a long time, could not withstand the stinging sensation of the harsh light, and she blocked them with her hands, but only for a moment, she was unable to hang her hands again.

I guess I had the illusion because I was confused.

She closed her eyes again.

It wasn't until someone grabbed her by the shoulders and lifted her to her feet that she struggled to open her eyes and saw a good-looking man crouching in front of her.

She opened her mouth to ask what the other person was going to do. It turned out to be a moan that came out of his throat.

When she opened her eyes, Zhao Yan looked at her narrow eyes, and her heart couldn't help but move.

He turned around and ordered the people behind him, "Turn your back on me." ”

Everyone present didn't know what he wanted to do, but his words were military orders, and in less than a moment, everyone turned their backs in unison.

Seeing this, Zhao Yan turned around and reached out to pick up the woman's clothes.

Although Shen Qing was in a daze, he also knew that this behavior was a great offense to him, so he tried his best to tear the clothes on his hands back into place.

But the high fever had made her limbs weak, and in the eyes of men, the force was like a flick on the back of her hand.

Zhao Yan easily ripped off her clothes, revealing her thin shoulder blades and the bright red golden lantern.

His hands shook, barely believing his eyes.

"Xu Weiqiu!" He called out to the woman.

The woman only raised her eyes to look at him, then closed her eyes and fainted, Zhao Yan's eyes were quick, and as soon as he stretched out his hand, the woman followed his gesture and fell into his arms.

He tidied up her clothes, easily picked up the woman and walked out of the cell door with one hand, took a few steps forward, and handed the torch in his hand to Qi Jing, who was facing away from him.

Qi Jing was stunned for a moment, and hurriedly reached out to take the torch, seeing that he changed the woman in his arms into a more comfortable position, and walked out with a wide step while holding the person.

It suddenly dawned in his mind that he had guessed correctly...... This woman is really the princess.

He quickly followed, looking at the unconscious woman in the arms of King Ling in front of him, he couldn't help but think, if His Highness hadn't sent him to prison that day, if he hadn't taken a look at the torture table.

Isn't this princess a ......

Thinking of this, he couldn't help but be afraid for a while.

——

Zeng Wanyu and Yang Yan were lazily cleaning the outer room, when they suddenly heard the footsteps of King Ling outside, and the two couldn't help but glance at each other.

King Ling has never returned at this hour, so what's wrong today?

Although there were doubts in their hearts, the two of them reacted quickly, hid the rag in their hands, and the two quickly hung their heads and stood on both sides.

As soon as the two of them were standing, King Ling came with a wide stride, and hurried through the outer room into the inner room.

This time, the two were even more confused, King Ling seemed to be holding someone in his arms, the face was lying on King Ling's chest, whether it was a man or a woman, they didn't see clearly, but the clothes on that person were more torn and dirtier than the beggars outside.

Soon, the steward also hurried in.

The two looked at each other outside, and Yang Yan came up to Zeng Wanyu and whispered, "Hey, have you seen it?" ”

Zeng Wanyu nodded, and said in a somewhat sour tone: "I don't know who it is, but I want His Royal Highness King Ling to hold it personally." ”

Yang Yan glanced at the inner room, leaned closer to her, and lowered her voice, "It seems to be a prisoner, I saw that he was wearing prison clothes." ”

Zeng Wanyu was full of disbelief after hearing this: "How is it possible, you must have read it wrong." ”

"It's true, my father used to be a transcript of the torture cell, and I often went to the prison camp with him when I was a child, and I know what the prison clothes look like."

As soon as she finished speaking, she saw the steward come out of the inner room, and the two of them quickly silenced.

When the steward saw the two of them together, he already knew what the two were talking about.

I couldn't help but warn: "You two keep your mouths tight, what you see and hear here, it's all scattered here, don't say anything and spread out, do you know?" ”
