Shangguan Yunrui escorted Yan Songhe to the dungeon of Wulin Yuan and locked him with the trapped dragon chain unique to the Ice Dance Gate.

"Stay here and stop thinking about your revenge plan. Shangguan Yunrui said disdainfully.

"You'd better kill me, or one day when I go out, I'll kill you two hairy boys!" Yan Songhe shouted.

"We are hairy boys, and what you elders do is not authentic, you actually use such cruel methods to deal with your own son, what qualifications do you have to teach us a lesson! If it weren't for Jian Chen's repeated instructions to tell me to take you away, I should have left you in the palace and let you die in the prison. ”

"What did you say? Chen Jian asked you to take me out?" Yan Songhe's eyes widened.

"If it weren't for the fact that you are his father, I wouldn't care about this!" Shangguan Yunrui said hatefully.

"He said I was his father?" Yan Songhe was puzzled. This Jian Chen obviously knows his life experience, what is he going to do?

"Alliance leader, it's not good!" Lu Lingyue rushed in from outside.

"What's the matter?" Shangguan Yunrui said.

"Alliance Leader-Alliance Leader, he-" Lu Lingyue's tone trembled a little.

"What's wrong with Jian Chen, Brother Lu, tell me quickly. ”

"The alliance leader admitted all the charges of treason, saying that he was the mastermind, and the emperor asked him to hand over Yan Songhe, but the alliance leader said that Yan Songhe was his father, and he just obeyed him, and refused to tell Yan Songhe's whereabouts!"

This kid, no wonder he let himself bring Yan Songhe out, it turned out that he wanted to fight all these sins for his father.

"Yan Songhe, you treat your biological son like this, look at how he repays you with virtue!" Shangguan Yunrui rushed away angrily.

Yan Songhe sat down on the ground.

What's the matter with you, I'm not your real father, what are you doing this for!

Inside the prison, Jian Chen sat peacefully on the ground with his eyes closed and pranayama.

There was a sound of chains outside the door, and Jian Chen didn't even open his eyes.

The Emperor and Jinghua walked into the cell and saw Jian Chen with his eyes closed and breathing, unresponsive to their arrival.

"Jian Chen, you really refuse to tell Yan Songhe's whereabouts. The jailer brought a chair, and the emperor sat down opposite Jian Chen.

"The criminal minister said, Yan Songhe is my father, and I will not tell his whereabouts. Your Majesty, please go back. Jian Chen opened his eyes, looked at the emperor, and did not get up or salute.

"I know that this rebellion was planned by Yan Songhe, and it has nothing to do with you, if it wasn't for you who sent Jinghua out to ask for help, maybe I wouldn't be able to stand here now. As long as you tell Yan Songhe's whereabouts, I will spare you for the crime of assassinating me in the first place, and spare you from death!" the emperor tried to persuade Chen Jian to confess Yan Songhe's whereabouts.

"What the criminal minister said will not change, the emperor should please go back!" Chen Jian still didn't move, closed his eyes again and breathed.

"I have good words and good words to persuade you, you don't toast or eat and drink!" the emperor stood up, "Someone!"

Seeing that the emperor was angry, Jinghua hurriedly stepped forward to dissuade him, "Brother Huang, you know Jian Chen's personality, even if you use all the torture, he will not let go." Let Jinghua persuade him. ”

The emperor sighed, what Jinghua said was right, even if he was pierced by ten thousand arrows in his heart, he did not let go, and torture had no effect on him at all.

"Okay, I will give you three days, and after three days, if you still don't explain Yan Songhe's whereabouts, I will push you out of the noon gate and behead you!" he turned to Jinghua, "You can persuade him!"

After Jinghua waited for the emperor to leave, she sat down beside Jian Chen and looked at him quietly without speaking.

Chen Jian sensed that Jinghua was beside him, and he opened his eyes.

"Princess, I'm sorry!" Jian Chen began.

"You have nothing to be sorry for me. "Jinghua Road.

"Criminal-" As soon as Jian Chen opened his mouth, he was covered by Jinghua.

"You're not a sinner, you're just doing your filial piety. "Jinghua Road.

Jian Chen looked at her, "After all, I assassinated the emperor." ”

"Even if you didn't kill the imperial brother, Yan Songhe would have killed him, on the contrary, it was because you killed the imperial brother that the imperial brother picked up a life. ”

Jian Chen looked at Jinghua hesitantly.

"You don't have to look at me like that. Jinghua said, "These things were told to me by the imperial brother. After he woke up, he thought carefully about what happened at the beginning, and the situation at that time, you were also forced to be helpless. It's just that the imperial brother has always wanted to help you get rid of your crimes, but you are Yan Songhe's son, and you will be punished for the great crime of rebellion, and you will definitely not be able to let you go. Therefore, the royal brother has always asked you to confess your father's whereabouts, hoping that he can atone for his sins, and he can also exonerate you in the previous dynasty. ”

"Is it?" Jian Chen sighed, "The emperor knows everything so well, and it is not in vain that I saved him in the first place." ”

"Jian Chen, do you really want to throw away your life for that father who has been trying to frame you? Even if you die, your father is still a wanted criminal in the imperial court, and he has to hide for the rest of his life, what's the point?"

"The Father's debt is paid by the Son, and as long as he lives, no matter how he lives, I am satisfied. ”

The sins of the former emperor will be paid by my son. Father, you should be able to give up this hatred. Chen Jianxin said.

"You are foolish!" Jinghua saw that Jian Chen was insisting, and couldn't help but stand up and raise her voice. "Can you bear to abandon us for the sake of one person? The whole world knows that you are my county horse, and if you die like this, what will I have in this world in the future? And your senior brother, do you think he will let you be executed? And - what about your sweetheart? Do you leave her alone?"

Sweetheart?

By the way, I haven't seen Lin'er for a long time, and you're okay now.

"Everyone has their own blessings, and perhaps they would be better off without me. Jian Chen said lightly and closed his eyes again.

Seeing that Jian Chen was bent on death, Jinghua was very sad, what could he do to make him change his mind?

At night, the prison was silent, and the guards were lying on their desks and falling asleep.

Jian Chen was about to close his eyes, but he saw a white shadow flash in front of him, and he was picked up by a person.

"Follow me!" Shangguan Yunrui pulled up Jian Chen.

"I'm not leaving. Chen Jian broke free from Shangguan Yunrui's hand.

"Do you really want to die, is it worth it for that kind of person?"

"No matter what he does, he's my dad and I have to save him!"

"There are many ways to save him, not in this stupid way. Shangguan Yunrui said angrily.

"Then Senior Brother taught me, should I kill the emperor or let me be a wanted criminal in the imperial court for the rest of my life!" Jian Chen raised his voice.

Seeing Jian Chen resisting like this, Shangguan Yunrui also became angry, "Do you think that your life is your own, and you can die if you want to! At the beginning, I inexplicably confessed to murder in order to protect us, and now I inexplicably want to send you to death for the sake of that nominal father who completely disregarded your family affection? Are you fulfilling your wish, following your own reputation for filial piety and sacrificing your life to save others, then how do you let us deal with ourselves? Indifferent to seeing you die in front of us? Or are you happy to collect your body! Jian Chen, why do you only think of yourself in your heart, and you don't want to think about us who are alive!"

Seeing Shangguan Yunrui's tone trembling, Jian Chen fell to his knees, "Senior brother, Jian Chen is sorry for you, in order to save me, you lost your parents, became an orphan, and almost died yourself." Chen Jian deserved to die. ”

Facing Shangguan Yunrui, the depression that Jian Jian had been hiding in his heart for many days was suddenly released.

The jailer outside the cell door woke up a little, Shangguan Yunrui snapped his fingers and clicked on their sleeping hole, and some of the people around him fell asleep again.

He looked at Jian Chen, who was kneeling on the ground, and couldn't bear it, so he hurriedly stepped forward to support him, "Since you know that you killed my parents to save you, then you have to save your life even more now, otherwise, didn't my parents die in vain?"

Jian Chen raised his head and looked at Shangguan Yunrui, "Senior brother, Jian Chen has a last resort, I have already harmed many people, and now I can save one of them." He's my father, and I can't let him die. Only when I die, the emperor can have an explanation for his courtiers, and these things can be over. The martial arts strife caused by me can also be ended, and everything can return to the right path. ”

"Are you so obsessed with dying?" Shangguan Yunrui lost his mind.

He turned around and slowly moved towards the outside of the prison door, "Then you will die! I will not stop you, I will not stop you!"

Seeing Shangguan Yunrui leave suddenly, Jian Chen was stunned for a while, he knew that he had completely hurt Shangguan Yunrui, and maybe, he would not come to see him again. That's fine, he doesn't want to have too many things that he can't give up before he dies. He walked to the window and looked out at the moon.

Tonight's moon is still so bright and white, without a single blemish.

In the emperor's bedroom, a man in white appeared at this time.

"Are you Shangguan Yunrui?" the emperor looked at the uninvited guest in front of him, and he already knew in his heart who was coming.

"If you're smart, you should know what I'm here for tonight. Shangguan Yunrui sat down at the table, poured himself a cup of tea, and drank it slowly.

"If I let Jian Chen go, I can't agree. The Emperor stepped forward.

"Don't worry, Yan Songhe has committed the crime of rebellion, but he has a good son. Chen Jian said that he wanted his father to repay his debts, so he must die. However, I desperately saved your life against Jian Chen, and I led the guards of Wulin Yuan to help you eliminate the traitors, hoping that you can leave a whole corpse for Jian Chen. Shangguan Yunrui took a sip of tea.

"Whole corpses?"

"Yes, I hope that the emperor can read that Chen Jian has made a meritorious contribution to saving the driver, and changed the punishment of beheading to hanging, leaving him with a whole corpse. It's okay for me to collect his body, and I can have an explanation in front of the master. ”

"What's so difficult about this?" the emperor agreed, "but," he frowned, "do you also know Yan Songhe's whereabouts?" ”

"Yes, Yan Songhe was taken away by me, but Jian Chen didn't want him to appear, I couldn't disobey him. Shangguan Yunrui generously admitted.

"As I expected. The emperor said, "Just for a rebellious sinner, can you bear to sacrifice your junior brother's life?"

"He's a sinner, but he's Chen Jian's father, and I can't send him to death. Shangguan Yunrui said lightly, "Since the emperor has agreed, then Yunrui has resigned." ”

Before the emperor could speak, Shangguan Yunrui disappeared.
