It was already noon, and the interrogation of Su Xiaolian also came to an end, and she was recruited to do 'for stealing the former Jin people in the Shen Mansion, and fled away from the master, and after the law, she framed the people in the Shen Mansion and humiliated her in every way. 'The long shackles were heavy, and he was sent to the prison to be punished, waiting for the verdict of the so-called 'mirror hanging'.

The state official tried the case, everyone congratulated, and left, he took a sedan chair, followed by a group of entourage, and went straight to the most luxurious spring return building in Yunzhou to go to the banquet, the spring return building is the asset set up by the Shen family, at this time, also under the invitation of the Shen family, the old man is complacent, and he is not happy to participate in it.

Lu Yang was outside the mansion, and coldly saw the official master and the others walking away, and the fire of resentment in his heart was burning. He followed the old man's sedan chair, first served in the dark for a long time, and saw them go to the Chungui Building to drink and feast. The Texas official was invited to get off the sedan chair, enter the banquet, and sing and dance endlessly.

He hid between the stairs, thinking about Su Xiaolian's suffering in prison, and didn't want to see the rich bureaucrats in the banquet, and he got carried away and twisted and ugly. At that moment, Lu Yang turned back to the Yamen, bought some food along the way, and wanted to go to prison in the name of delivering food and see Su Xiaolian.

The jailers guarding the prison saw that Lu Yang was dressed in tatters and carrying food in his hands, and he did not regard him as an important person. Lu Yang had to go forward, pretending to be pitiful and said: "My lord, I have no father or mother since I was a child, only this one sister, but now I have a lawsuit and am in prison. ”

The jailer looked at Lu Yang with his eyes open, and said in a strange manner: "Don't look down on this place, this is a place to guard sinners! Where can you let in this poor mud leg? Get out of here! Don't disturb the uncle's guard." ”

Lu Yang had no choice but to take out all the money and things from his arms, which was still a little money that he had saved for a long time when he was rushing for the exam, and said: "Please do well, my sister is the only relative of mine, and now that she has committed a big mistake, how can I do my best to meet her." Although these copper coins are few, you can take them and buy a bowl of wine to drink. ”

The jailer turned a blind eye, took Lu Yang's string of copper coins, and quietly put them into his clothes, before he smiled: "You understand the rules, so let's go quickly, turn around quickly, if the inspectors find out, you and I will have no good fruit to eat!"

Lu Yang nodded his head in thanks, and under his guidance, he walked into the dim prison with a rice can, but saw that Su Xiaolian was randomly locked in a dungeon, her body was covered with blood, and she was lying on the ground. The miserable situation is heart-wrenching.

"Little mercy!" Lu Yang called her name distressedly, reached out through the crack in the cell door, and grabbed her cold hand. Now she is covered with filth and blood, looking at Lu Yang coming, her beautiful face that has been subjected to wind and rain, she tried her best, and then bloomed with a gentle and lovely smile. But there is a hint of desolation in this smile.

"Young Master Lu Yang, you are so good to me, Xiao Lian can see you for the last time, even if he dies, he is willing. Her palm trembled in Lu Yang's palm. His heart was so sour that he almost wanted to cry, but what was the use of crying? This dim world was still so cold and merciless after all.

Lu Yang secretly observed around, and made sure that no one had found it, so he whispered to her: "Xiao Pity, it's all my fault, I should take you away, instead of believing in this powerful and colluding government." It's me Lu Yang, I'm sorry for you. ”

"Don't blame you Lu Yanggongzi. Su Xiaolian was already a little excited in her heart, held his hand tightly, and said with happiness: "Childe made me feel that there is still warmth in this world." If there is an afterlife, Xiao Lian is willing to serve the son with a clean body, I don't know if the son can like Xiao Lian. ”

"Like, I'll like you, protect you. Lu Yang held her hand tightly, why did the way of heaven let this girl suffer an injustice and be ruined to this point? Her life was originally just carefree! But she was slandered by the wicked, reclaimed the shackles, and suffered in a dark and cold prison.

"Hurry up, you guy! How can you two talk privately in this place of prison!"

"Little mercy, there are a lot of people today, and I can't stay here for too long. That night, when the guards are lax, I'll sneak in and take you away. Lu Yang saw that the jailer was already a little angry, so he wanted to drive him out, and hurriedly whispered in her ear.

"Xiao Lian is all rescued by Childe, but Childe should be careful. She looked concerned, and finally let go of the hands held by the two, with mist in her eyes, and couldn't bear to part with Lu Yang.

Lu Yang nodded, finally glanced at her deeply, and turned away.

......

The pavilion of the spring return building is dozens of zhang high, and the singing and dancing girls shuttle between the guest seats, the prosperous atmosphere, and the road is endless. Shen Yuanwai and Shen Gongzi led the state officials and sat in the most luxurious private room in the building. Seeing that many dignitaries and nobles were seated, the discerning bartender did not need to be instructed at the moment, and brought out the delicacies and flowing prices by himself, and led a group of the most beautiful Zhenghonghua Dan to set up the table, babbling and singing, and all the nobles took the lamp for fun and drank happily during the banquet.

Everyone drank happily for a long time, and then Shen Yuan waved his hand, making the actors on the stage retreat for the time being. I saw him get up during the banquet, hold a glass to face the state official, and salute with a smile on his face: "Thanks to the master for the little brother to share his worries, this glass of thin wine is not a tribute, and the younger brother does it first as a respect." With that, he tilted his head and drank the wine in his glass, his face glowing red.

"Hey, Brother Shen doesn't have to be too polite, you and my brother's family. Brother has something, but only by command. As an elder brother, but if you can do your best, I will do my best to help you. The governor said with a grin. It's also a toast and a drink of it.

"It's just...... Hey......" Shen Yuanwai turned around and sat down, playing with the empty cup, frowning. The governor also had a bit of a look, how could he not see it? At that moment, he said: "Brother, what is the hard thing to do? Say with my brother, I will solve your worries with you!"

Shen Yuanwai said: "To tell you the truth, brother, although the woman has now been put in prison and guarded strictly, I feel uneasy. She can escape under the pursuit of hundreds of families in the Shen Mansion, and there must be people to help. I'm afraid she'll die again in that prison. If she reports this matter to Chang'an, then things will be bad!"

"So, what do you mean, brother?" asked the governor, whose eyes rolled a few times, but still undecided.

"Kill Su Xiaolian. Shen Yuanwai's eyes emitted a cold light, and he said: "Only by letting that poor and lowly evaporate in the world can we sit back and relax in Yunzhou." ”

"But Brother Shen, Su Xiaolian just ran away behind her master's back, and her crime is not to death. "The state official said.

"Of course I do. Shen Yuanwai said: "This person is lonely and widowed, and has no relatives. Even if you die in prison, you won't arouse suspicion. We just declared to the outside world that Su Xiaolian, a poor woman, was thin-skinned and tight-skinned, confessed her guilt in court, lost face, and committed suicide because she couldn't withstand the humiliation. Then we will not leave a trace. ”

"Wonderful! Wonderful! Brother's plan is really a clever move!" the governor smiled and said with a smile on his palm, and immediately secretly ordered someone to go to the prison. The two of them ate and enjoyed the drama upstairs in this spring home, but outsiders didn't know about these private words.

The official can know that the day when the good woman in the government of Nafu was martyred, but it was the time when the official eunuch was rich and drunk. Shen Gui has no virtue, and the people's livelihood is resentful. Su Nu has hatred, but she can't tell anyone. This is clear, so good and evil are unknown, and there is no distinction between turbidity.

......

Su Xiaolian was scarred and lying weakly in the cold prison, which was damp and rampant with rats and ants. But she felt that this was the happiest place in the world, and she already had someone who was willing to protect her and pity her, which was the most beautiful luck in her life.

In the palm of his hand, the faint body temperature that belonged to him seemed to remain, like a dream. Su Xiaolian closed her eyes, if she could, she wanted to immerse herself in this feeling of happiness and warmth forever, this is something that every girl looks forward to, she is just an eighteen or nineteen-year-old girl, just at a young age. She was supposed to be all the good in this world. The pain and wind and rain that this world has put on her, she has always believed that she will see a rainbow after all.

"Bang!"

She was awakened by the sound of the cell door opening, and several servants entered, their faces cold and unkind. One of them stretched out his hand and grabbed her, Su Xiaolian exclaimed, and quickly curled up his body and crawled into a dark corner, his body trembling uncontrollably.

"You ...... What are you going to do?" she asked timidly.

The servants were expressionless and said, "On the orders of the Great Master of Qingtian, I have come to end your life!

"Don't come here, don't come here!" Su Xiaolian exclaimed, struggling with all her might, and shouted desperately: "Although Xiaolian has wronged her guilt, she does not deserve to die, why do you want to kill me! Why!"

"It's a pity that you are such a beautiful girl, if you are not so dirty, then even the uncle and I will have a little bit of lust, and I will definitely hug you for a while. Okay, then I'll let you die. It's just that you offended Shen Dayuan, and you are asking around in our Yunzhou, who is Shen Dayuan? How could I let go of a lonely woman like you? The matter has come to this point, and you are the only one who will die. The officer shook his head and sighed, took out a bottle of liquor from his bosom, and said coldly: "This is a bottle of medicinal wine, which is mixed with arsenic, fine spice, strychnine and many other poisonous medicines. You are happy, drink it and eat it, and in a moment or three, you will surely die of your liver and intestines. lest we stain our hands. ”

Su Xiaolian couldn't listen to it at this time, her eyes were gloomy, and the whole person seemed to be in the ice and snow, and she was completely dead in her heart because of despair. In the face of the coercion of the servant, she was just like crazy and kept resisting, and the official saw that she was just struggling desperately, and his heart was furious, and he slapped her in the face, beating Su Xiaolian to the ground, and blood overflowed from the corner of her mouth. Although she coughed up blood, she was laughing, her hair was scattered, her mouth was wide open, and she laughed bitterly. In his eyes, two lines of desperate tears flowed silently.

She has fallen into the abyss of despair and has become a complete madman. However, who is awake in this world?

Her hands fluttered, lifting the dirt from the ground as if she were going to dig a hole and go headlong into it. Escaping from this vicious and dim world, she cried hoarsely, her heart dripping with blood. But no one paid any attention to her pain.

The servants pressed her kicks and feet to the ground, and poured the bottle of highly poisonous arsenic potion into her mouth. She just felt soreness all over her body, and she didn't feel a little conscious, and the pain of being beaten before was gone.

"That's a relief......"

She thought so, and with the last shred of consciousness, she remembered the warmth that the man had brought her, and then, her liver and intestines were broken, and blood gushed out of her seven orifices. The intense pain wiped out the last of her consciousness. With a never-ending nostalgia, he left this world completely.
