Li Zhen was taken away from Liufeng Tower by a group of officers and soldiers, and was escorted directly to the prison, as soon as he went out, he was put on a black cloth sleeve on his head, and he could only feel the vibration of the vehicle, and he didn't know which direction he was heading in the east, west, north, south, and north. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

After walking for about an hour, getting on and off the bus, going up and down the stairs, turning left and right, when the cloth cover on Li Zhen's head was taken off, he found that he had been locked up in a deep prison.

It was dark, dark and damp, presumably an underground cell. There are iron cages all around, and there are soldiers guarding each cage in front of them, and it seems that this is a place where important criminals are held.

Li Zhen looked at the layout here, and the corners of his mouth smiled slightly, just these shrimp soldiers and crabs are indeed a little vulnerable if they want to trap themselves.

In fact, the purpose of his coming to the prison was to take the opportunity to spy on the internal affairs of the imperial court, when he heard that the five boxes of wealth in his house were obtained by someone stealing the imperial tomb, he knew that this case would definitely shock the government and the opposition, and it was possible that the emperor would personally try it, and he would definitely be able to see the emperor at that time.

"Hey, brother, can you give me some water to drink?" I'm a little thirsty!" Li Zhen said to the guard at his door.

"Hmph!" the guard didn't even look at Li Zhen.

"Hey, big brother, can you give me some water to drink?" Li Zhen thought that the guards didn't hear clearly, so he said it again.

"Are you bothered? You're in prison, what kind of water are you going to drink? Save it! You won't feel thirsty on the Huangquan Road!" the guard glanced at Li Zhen.

"Hey, let you go and get some water, you're still coaxing, are you cursing me to death?" Li Zhen was quite angry when he heard this, but he didn't have a good seizure.

"Brother, it's not me who cursed you, I haven't seen anyone who has entered here who can get out alive!" the guard said coldly when he saw Li Zhen looking angry.

"You kid won't give me water again, believe it or not, I'll come back to you if I'm a ghost?" Li Zhen saw that this guard was thin and weak, not tall, and his heart and eyes were quite bad, maybe he worked in this environment all year round, and his personality became strange.

"Huh...... There are more people who say these things to me, and there are no more people who knock on the door in the middle of the night. ”

"Good, good...... You kid has a kind!" Li Zhen was choked by this guard and had nothing to say, people are not afraid of anything, how else can you scare him, Li Zhen sat on the ground with his ass, leaning on the iron cage in a daze.

"Hey!" A squirming sound sounded, Li Zhen looked around, and it turned out that an old man with gray hair and a hoarse voice in the iron cage next to him was whispering to himself.

"What's the matter, brother!" Li Zhen hurriedly leaned over, he was afraid that the guards would hear it, so he also lowered his voice and said.

"Here you go!" the old man took out a small water bag from his bosom and handed it through the iron cage.

"Thank you, brother!" In fact, Li Zhen was not very thirsty, he just wanted to see if the guards here would help him, but he didn't expect to touch his nose of ash, his voice was heard by the old man next to him, and they actually took the initiative to send water, which was somewhat unexpected by Li Zhen.

"Why did you end up in the prison at such a young age?" the old man asked as he watched Li Zhen take two large sips of water, and leaned against the iron cage.

"Hey, don't mention it, you've been framed by a villain!" Li Zhen felt that this old man was still a little old-fashioned, allowing him to see the dawn of humanity in this dreary prison.

"I, like you, have been persecuted by villains, alas! In today's world, it is difficult to be a good person, and the villain is the most popular, and the villain always wants to harm the good person. The old man sighed again, his eyes staring at the dim roof in a daze.

"How long have you been here?" Li Zhen felt pity.

"It's been seven years! I've wronged my husband for seven years, and I don't feel comfortable going out without the way of the day. The old man's eyes did not move, and a sigh came out of his mouth.

"You have been in this environment for seven years?" Li Zhen felt incredible, the oppressive environment here was depressing, he couldn't even see the sun every day, it was dark and damp, he couldn't imagine that someone could hold on here for so long.

"Yes, do you know what has been the motivation that has supported me to survive in the past seven years?" the old man suddenly rolled his eyes and looked at Li Zhen.

"I really want to ask for advice. Li Zhen felt that this person was talking a little interesting, and sat down to talk to him slowly.

"I am the champion of the first year of the Wu Dynasty, and my career can be said to be straight, I am not afraid of the jokes of the young man, I really felt that I was the smoothest person in the world, and even the emperor was not as chic as me!" The old man talked about these past events, and a smile squeezed out of the corner of his mouth.

"Later, my official became bigger and bigger, of course, the accompanying opponents became stronger and stronger, Liu Ji at that time was also proud, and the four major people under his command made great achievements, and the Liu family was in the limelight for a while. ”

"It's Liu Ji again? This Liu Ji doesn't know how many loyal and virtuous talents are still ruined!" Li Zhen heard that there was Liu Ji again, and his teeth itched with hatred.

"The four great gates of the Liu clan originally wanted to divide up the soldiers and horses of the world, didn't they want to change the army of the Wu Dynasty into his personal guard Liu Ji? Liu thief's ambition of the wolf son was clearly revealed, and I fought hard above the court at the beginning, and resolutely disagreed with the monopoly of military power by the four major gates. The way of the world has changed, I really don't want to go out of this way!" the old man said helplessly.

"People's hearts will change, and the way of the world will always change! When the traitors are removed, a righteous person like you should go out and do something for the people. Li Zhen comforted.

"Haha...... I'll wait here until the news of the traitor Liu Ji's death comes and I go out. The old man laughed happily as he spoke.

"You are really divine, Liu Ji is now alive and dead, and he doesn't know where he went. Li Zhen hurriedly told the old man the news, hoping that he would feel a little better.

"You mean, Liu Ji is missing?" the old man was not so excited when he heard the news, but instead he showed a sense of loss.

"Yes! It doesn't matter if Liu Ji is missing, his men began to gear up, preparing to fight in the nest. Li Zhen communicated with the old man about the most pressing matters at present, hoping to get some instructions from him.

"Well, these have long been expected by me, when the imperial court raised tigers, today is the turn of self-devouring bitter fruits. Liu's four major people are in charge of the world's soldiers and horses, which is an extremely dangerous move in itself, Liu Ji is missing, and his disciples have their own ghosts, so now the political situation is turbulent, if his disciples have one heart, the political situation of the Wu Dynasty will be dispersed early. "The old man seems to have seen through the political situation of the Wu Dynasty for a long time.

"Who says it's not! Now in the situation outside, Wang Lang's troops in the south are gathering troops, and if Wang Lang enters Beijing, the Wu Dynasty will definitely change the day, and the people will fall into war again. Li Zhen told the old man about the stakes of the matter.

"I don't have any hope for such a court, it's better to wait for Wang Lang to arrive, open the city gate and raise the flag to surrender, and save the safety of the people in the city. The old man smiled and said.

"Brother, now is not the time to talk angrily, if Wang Lang can sit in the capital, it will be fine, the other three people will not obey anyone, and then it will definitely set off turmoil in the entire Wu Dynasty, and it is the people who will be ruined. Li Zhen said anxiously.

"That's what I said, but all the soldiers and horses in the world are under the control of the Liu family, if Wang Lang enters Beijing, it will be like entering a no-man's land?"

"That's what I'm here for. Li Zhen said firmly.

The old man saw that Li Zhen was calm and relaxed, and his tone of speech was sonorous and powerful, and he suddenly felt a little admiration.

"How can you resist Wang Lang's tiger and wolf division when you come to this prison?" Although the old man listened to Li Zhen's words very much, he was still a little puzzled about what he meant.

"As soon as I entered the capital, I was entangled in a case of robbing the emperor's tomb, and now the evidence proves that I am a tomb robber, and the emperor is going to come to try me, haha...... You said that you met the emperor, will I help him or not?" Li Zhen looked proud.

"You can't protect yourself now, are you still in charge of the emperor's affairs?" The old man is also a wild person on weekdays, and when he saw Li Zhen today, he found that the back waves of the Yangtze River pushed the front waves, and he was really not absolute in terms of wild self-confidence!

"By the way, you said that the emperor is coming to the prison?" the old man asked with wide eyes.

"He must come, I heard that our emperor is a filial son, and now his father's tomb has been dug up, and the tomb robbers have also been arrested, why don't he come here to scold me in person?" Li Zhen said casually.

When the old man heard that the emperor was coming, he muttered something in his mouth, and after a while, he fell asleep leaning on the iron cage.

"This ...... The old-timers are in such an iron cage, if they don't adjust their hearts well, I'm afraid it will be difficult to survive for seven years. Li Zhen looked at the seniors who were sleeping heavily, and couldn't help but shake his head and smiled.

The old man has now completely separated himself from the Wu Dynasty, and every move in the court has nothing to do with him, a prisoner on death row in the heavenly prison.

Suddenly, a lot of people walked in from outside the door, and the leader was Gonggong Hu! They walked to Li Zhen's iron cage and stopped.

"Open the prison door!" Grandpa Hu's sharp voice kept echoing in the empty prison.

"Grandpa Hu, this is not in accordance with the law!" said the guard in front of the door as he seemed to be a little embarrassed, after all, the superiors had ordered that no one should approach the prisoner, let alone open the cell door to enter.

"Smack!" a crisp slap rang out.

"Open your dog's eyes and see who this is?" A little eunuch stepped forward and slapped the guard severely, no one in the palace dared to provoke the eunuchs around the emperor, and the princes and ministers were okay and still scolded those fathers-in-law! Beating a guard in the prison was not an easy matter.

"Little damn it...... The little one asked Grandpa Hu how it was!" The guard hurriedly knelt down and grabbed the ground with his head, and kept muttering in his mouth, for fear of provoking these plague gods again.

"Why don't you bring food to this cell?" asked Gonggong Hu after looking around Li Zhen's cell.
