There are many treasures in this country

Shen Yan is in prison.

In the evening of that day, the clouds were burning red all over the sky.Xiao Suo had just finished his shift and came out of Yushi's yamen, when he suddenly saw a large group of people walking past the street with swords and sticks.And the one in the central prison van was actually Shen Yan.

He has fallen to this point, being pointed at by the people on the side of the road like a mouse crossing the street, but there is still an expression of indifference on his face.The common people whispered to each other and said: "It's what they deserve! These people have today, and they don't know what to do all day long, so they just take so much money. Heaven has eyes, let them all go to jail! We pay food and taxes for the country, but spend all day Bitter haha, this group of bastards is for nothing!"

Shen Yan acted as if he had never heard of it, and sat crookedly by the cage, with his slender left leg bent, one arm idly resting on his knee, his head tilted slightly, and a few strands of black hair hanging from his forehead to his chest.His cynical look made his teeth itch with hatred.

Eyes met, and he even smiled.

The chariots and horses marched mightily towards the west city, Xiao Suo watched intently until the crowds cleared and the sky became dark before he came back to his senses.He turned around and ran into the yamen, searching back and forth, but there was no sign of him.

Seeing this, the officer in the class at the door stepped forward hesitantly and asked him, "My lord, what are you looking for, maybe the little ones can help you?"

Xiao Suo paused, and asked anxiously, "Has Lord Yan been here?"

The guard laughed and said, "Master Yan didn't come today, I think something happened in the palace and he got stuck."

"What's your name?" Xiao Suo calmed down a little, and asked him patiently: "Are you here on duty today?"

The officer replied: "Little Luo Quan, today and tomorrow will be the little one on duty. If the adults have anything to do, just tell the little ones to do it."

Xiao Suo thought for a while, walked into the porter's room, picked up a pen and wrote a line, and said: "I would like to trouble you, Mr. Ruoyan is here, please send someone to inform me quickly. This is my residence, if If I'm not at home, you can tell Babao, the book boy in my family, that it is urgent, and let him find a way to find me."

Luo Quan put away the note and said: "My lord, don't worry, the little ones will not delay your important matters."

Xiao Suo thanked him, turned around and walked out again, and told the bearers to go to Xie's mansion quickly.At this time, it was time for dinner, so I shouldn't pay a visit, but the situation was urgent, so I didn't care too much.

Fortunately, Xie Yi was not annoyed, and left him to eat with him.Xiao Suo was as anxious as an ant on a hot pot at the moment, his stomach was burning and his heart was stagnant, even if it was delicacies from mountains and seas, how could he swallow it.

But Xie Yi insisted on keeping him: "It's a big deal, and it can't delay the meal! Sit down quickly, talk slowly if you have something to say, and eat first. If you have anything to do, don't be in a hurry, and it's not on the guillotine. Even if Even if you kill your head, you have to eat the food on the road first."

Xiao Suo had no choice but to obey.He didn't talk when he was eating or sleeping. Normally, he would not be rude in front of the teacher, but he couldn't help it: "Teacher, the students have something to ask."

Xie Yi pursed his lips and said, "You child is not usually impatient, but today you are so impatient, why?"

"Students are ashamed." Xiao Suo said, "it's just that this matter is really special. The teacher may not know that the students were wronged that day, and thanks to General Shen Yan's repeated rescues, it is today. The kindness of life-saving. It's just that the student is humble and has little contact with the general. He can't help much and has never had the opportunity to repay the favor. But the student came out of the yamen today and saw General Shen being escorted into the prison car, so he was anxious and wanted to ask Ask what's going on."

Xie Yi smiled knowingly, put down his chopsticks and asked him: "I probably guessed that you wanted to ask this too. The old man has heard about the matter between you and Shen Yan. But it's nothing else, you must not interfere in this matter. "

"Why?" Xiao Suo blurted out.

Xie Yi shook his head and sighed: "Shen Yan was imprisoned for nothing else but because of the death of Princess Nan'an. This matter is tricky, and others will avoid it for fear that you won't be able to help, so why bother?"

In the early morning today, Shen Yan didn't know what kind of poison or what medicine he took, but he pleaded guilty in front of civil and military officials and envoys of the vassal state, saying that he poisoned Princess Nan'an to death.

A thunderbolt exploded on the ground, and the court suddenly felt like a fire boiling water, and all the ministers started arguing and arguing.Huan Ye's face was livid with anger, and he had a cough on the spot, almost coughing up blood.

Shen Yan has become more and more violent these days, which has already made Sacred Heart very unhappy, but now that this incident happened again, it simply added fuel to the fire.He was angry all the time, and he couldn't show favoritism in public, so Huan Ye immediately sent him to prison.

Yan Jun immediately played, demanding that Yushitai investigate and handle the case.At the same time, Dali Temple Minister Wei Lan also said that the case was initially investigated by Dali Temple, and now Shen Yan should also be imprisoned in Dali Temple.

The two couldn't settle down. You said that Shen Yan, as an official of the imperial court, should hand over the case to Yushitai. I said that this case is a major case of human life and should be handed over to Dali Temple. No one would give in.

Huan Ye was so quarreled that the sun hurt, and when he opened his mouth, he sent Shen Yan to the prison of the Ministry of Punishment.

The wound on Zhang Yunjian's face has not yet healed, and there is nowhere to release the poisonous gas. Unexpectedly, Feng Shui turns, 30 years in Hedong and 30 years in Hexi. hand.

When Yan Jun and Wei Lan were arguing, he was already secretly happy. The emperor was irritated when he heard it.Therefore, he deliberately kept silent, apparently not arguing about the case, but in reality he was advancing by retreating and fighting by not arguing.

There are 72 punishments in the prison of the Ministry of Punishment, within two days, Shen Yan has tasted them all.

There is not a single piece of good skin on his body at the moment, bruises hang from the corners of his flirtatious eyes, two drops of congealed blood flow from his lips, whip marks are all over his neck to his back, and even his ankles have been worn away by the shackles. Stained with blood.

Zhang Yunjian still felt that it was not enough, so he would come three or four times a day to torture him personally.However, Shen Yan was extremely stubborn, neither threatened nor intimidated, and refused to say a soft word from the beginning to the end.The more he was tortured, the more he wanted to laugh.

After Xiao Suo learned the truth from Xie Yi, he ran up and down for two days, asked all the people he could think of and found, and then told him to go home and wait for news. Afterwards, there was no news.

When it was extremely difficult, he went to find Yan Jun.

Censor's yamen was strictly hierarchical, and all the officials were ordered, but no one would let him in to see Mr. Capital Censor.Yan Mansion's door was closed tightly, and he waited outside for a day but failed to enter.He still came over the next day, and happened to meet Xi Sheng who was coming home, Xiao Suo was overjoyed, hurriedly stopped the sedan horse, and begged her to help pass the message.

Xi Sheng was innocent and innocent, and agreed without even thinking about it.One day later, when Yan Jun arrived at Yushitai, he ordered Sinan to bring Xiao Suo, reprimanded him sternly, and said that he was helpless, and ordered him to stop talking too much.

The house leak happened to rain all night, Xiao Suo had no way out, and suddenly he got a headache again, and when he had an attack, he wished he could bang his head against the wall, suffering endlessly day and night.

Babao asked a doctor to come and see it. He said that it was caused by exogenous wind and lust, lack of source of energy and blood, and emotional failure, resulting in stagnation of liver and qi, disturbing the clear orifices. , Only by slowly adjusting and restraining the mind can it be relieved, and the good news is that life will not be hindered.

Others were worried, but Xiao Suo didn't care, let alone take it into consideration—he thought that one person might be able to save Shen Yan, although the hope was slim, but it was the last straw.

This person is none other than the eldest prince.

Xiao Suo inquired in many ways, and learned that after the year the emperor moved the eldest prince into the East Palace.Although the queen was worried and worried that he would not be able to take good care of herself by living alone at such a young age, but thinking that the East Palace has always been the residence of the prince, the emperor's move has a deep meaning, so she can't help being happy.

In this way, it will save trouble.If the eldest prince lived in the deep palace, Xiao Suo would not be able to see him no matter what.But now in the East Palace, there is a three-point possibility.

Xiao Suo first begged Liu Siwen to help him find Chengchi, the school secretary whom he met in Hongwen Hall that day.The East Palace belongs to the Prince Neifang Bureau, and before Cheng Chi was transferred to the Hongwen Museum, he worked as a bachelor in the Chongwen Museum under the jurisdiction of the Prince Neifang. Many friends are still working there, and they have some connections.

Liu Siwen took him to Cheng Chi's house the next day, Xiao Suo explained the cause and effect, and kowtowed in tears: "The student was in the Hongwen Hall that day, and was taken care of by Sir Duo, but now that he has not repaid his kindness, he really shouldn't bother Sir again. But when the matter is urgent, if there is no other way, the students also...Nowadays, they still need to ask adults for help, all they need to do is send a message. Regardless of whether the matter is successful or not, the students will never forget their gratitude."

Cheng Chi hurriedly asked him to get up: "Xiaguan District School Secretary, the official position of the ninth grade, how can he be worshiped by the censor!" He said: "This is not difficult, Master Xiao really doesn't have to do this."

Xiao Suo is not what it used to be, his figure is extremely soft, he calls everyone an adult, he is no longer the same as when he saw the third-rank general Shen Yan in Zhuoyang and dismissed him.

Cheng Chi took him to look for Bachelor Wu in the Chongwen Hall, and this person recommended him an internal official from the East Palace.Xiao Suo gave him all the money that was left, and asked him to help pass a sentence.

Fortunately, after a lot of hardships and twists and turns, Xiao Suo finally entered the East Palace.The eldest prince was much thinner than Xian, and he liked him quite a lot when he saw him, so he asked him with drooping eyes where he was working and why he didn't come to see him.

Xiao Suo naturally didn't dare to say that meeting him was as difficult as climbing to the sky, how could he see him as soon as he wanted to, he only said that he was sent to Yushitai after he was admitted to the imperial examination, he was busy with official duties and had no time to come.

Hearing the words, the First Prince asked with his mouth flattened, "Then why are you free today?"

Xiao Suo hurriedly explained the purpose of coming, and begged again and again, but he heard him say in a low voice: "How can I do anything? No one can do anything about the decree issued by the father. However, I can let you see the general and talk to him .”

"Thank you Your Highness, I am very grateful!" Seeing Shen Yan was already overjoyed.

So, in the evening, Xiao Suo entered the punishment department smoothly.

Zhang Yunjian has always been diligent, and often handles official duties in the yamen until late at night.But today happened to be busy, and he also lost interest in Shen Yan, so he was not in the Ministry of Punishment.

Revisiting the old place, this place still makes people shudder.Wearing a black cloak, Xiao Suo covered his face deeply with the brim of his hat, holding a food box in his left hand and a token in his right hand, he walked carefully all the way to the prison, and saw Shen Yan covered in blood in a cell in the corner.

The wounds on his body had already scabbed over, and he lay ugly on the delicate and smooth honey-colored skin, like red blood centipedes, which made people daunting.

When Xiao Suo walked over gently, he was still asleep and didn't notice anyone.It wasn't until he was awakened by the sound of the jailer unlocking the lock that Shen Yan realized that the person standing in front of him was actually someone who dreamed and dreamed day and night.

"Why are you here?" He wasn't in the slightest embarrassment, and he could vaguely see a bit of high spirits, "Nowadays, everyone in the world has to avoid suspicion, and no one dares to mess with me. You don't say stay away, why are you still running here?" Look at me?"

There was a hint of hope in Shen Yan's words, he was testing, testing whether Dubao did not hesitate to risk himself to visit at this critical moment, whether it was because he still had old feelings for him.

He has fallen to this point, and he still cares about these things.

It's a pity that passion is always annoyed by ruthlessness.

Xiao Suo sneered, and said lightly, "Let me see what happens to you."
