"This... this is not good. Your Majesty, you have been working hard all the way. Why should you worry about those untouchables? I am afraid that they do not understand the rules and may bump into the nobles again."

Song Daiyan bowed his head and couldn't see clearly the emotions on his face, but Surao guessed that he must be panicking.

"It doesn't matter."

Yan Yun's expression was indifferent, as if he couldn't hear the rejection in his words: "Master Song, just go and mention the person."

"……Oh well."

After hesitating for a long time, Song Daiyan couldn't think of a reason to refuse, so he had to accept.

The moment he turned around, Yan Yun's voice came from behind him again, "Aren't you curious about what the prison looks like? Come and have a look with Mr. Song."

Song Daiyan turned around and saw the woman beside him leaning forward with a smile and a groan, "Yes."

"The prison is damp and dark. Do you really want to go there?"

If it were anyone else who made such a request, Song Daiyan would definitely refuse it sternly, but the person sitting on it was Yan Yun. He didn't dare and didn't have the courage, so he had to remind Surao: "Young lady, I'm afraid of scaring you."

.”

It is said that the son of the Yan family has an iron-hearted Buddha heart and will not touch the worldly world.

In so many years, I have never heard of any woman getting close to him. This woman was a special case, so even though her identity was unknown, Song Daiyan still gave her the highest courtesy.

Su Rao nodded and said softly: "Don't worry about me, but the women of the people will not be afraid."

She had said so, but Song Daiyan couldn't help but flatter Yan Yun, so he went along with the situation and made a favor, "Then girl, please follow me."

"yes."

Surao looked back at Yan Yun, nodded to him invisibly, turned around and followed Song Daiyan's footsteps.

Behind the government office is the prison. When the jailers saw Master Song personally bringing a girl, and she was a very beautiful girl, they all looked at her.

"This way, girl, please be careful with the soles of your feet."

"Thank you, sir."

Song Daiyan was walking in front, and she followed slowly behind, looking around as she walked, looking very curious. She pretended not to notice the people next to her who were pointing and whispering.

When passing by the wooden piles with uncondensed blood in the middle, she paused slightly.

"Master Song, what is this?"

she asked curiously.

Song Daiyan turned around and walked over, glanced at the torture instruments and wooden stakes, and explained in a kind manner: "These are the instruments of torture used in prison to deal with the most vicious criminals. Some people kill people like hemp and refuse to admit guilt, so they have to use

Use some means to force him to submit."

Surao's eyes passed over those things one by one, her eyebrows furrowed slightly, she raised her hand to cover the tip of her nose, and nodded in realization: "It seems that you, sir, have spent a lot of time for the sake of the common people."

"These are all my duties, they should be done, they should be done..."

Song Daiyan smiled and echoed a few words, and led her deeper into the cell. When he reached a cell door, he suddenly stopped and ordered the guard guarding her: "Open the door."

"Girl, the ground here is dirty, so don't go in and wait outside."

"good."

Su Rao's original intention of following here was to prevent Song Daiyan from jumping over the wall and killing people directly. Seeing that Shi Yi was still alive inside, she naturally stopped insisting.

Song Daiyan nodded to her, personally lifted up the dying figure lying in the haystack, and then handed it over to the jailer to help him out.

The bloodstains and scars all over his body looked like he had been severely tortured.

Su Rao thought of the two pools of blood that had not dried up in front of the wooden pile, her eyes darkened, and when she saw Song Daiyan making a move to leave, she seemed curious and said: "Didn't it say that the bride eloped with someone, which led to the murder? Count her.

She is also one of the culprits, why don't you take her with you?"

"What you need to bring, what you need to bring..."

Song Daiyan looked a little stiff and asked the jailer: "Where is that bitch Yu Niang?"

"this……"

The jailer's expression changed drastically, and he hurriedly stepped forward and whispered a few words in Song Daiyan's ear. Song Daiyan was furious: "You bastard, you haven't brought me here yet."

"Yes, yes, I will go to my humble position right now."

The jailer cupped his hands towards the two of them, took a few steps back, turned around and left quickly.

"What's wrong?"

Surao asked casually.

Song Daiyan's expression faded and he said in a low voice, "It's nothing, they just moved Yu Niang to another cell without permission. Someone will come later."

Change cells?

Thinking of the unusual expressions on the two people just now, Surao thought of a possibility - no matter where they are, female prisoners in prison always have a tragic fate. Not only do they have to face bullying from other prisoners, they may even be reduced to some...

Human 'toys'.

In the small, dark corner, her eyes were so cold that no one could see her.

When Yu Niang was brought, she was still half awake and half asleep, her eyelids and hair were wet and drooped, and her face was pale and without a trace of blood.

"What's wrong with her?"

Surao looked closer and looked at it out of curiosity.

The jailer smiled ingratiatingly, and tried his best to raise his fat face with a flattering arc: "I just finished taking a bath, and I didn't even have time to clean up, so I made the girl laugh."

"You still help prisoners bathe in prison?"

There seemed to be no traces of violation visible to the naked eye. Surao felt slightly relieved and looked at him suspiciously.

The jailer saw that she looked confused and curious, as if she was a rich young lady who was ignorant of the world, so he said casually: "In our prison, we always have preferential treatment for those prisoners who cooperate with us on errands and are well-behaved and obedient."

"Yeah……"

Surao pulled her lips and smiled softly, but the smile did not reach her eyes.

"All the prisoners have been brought here. There is nothing to stay in this place. It is better to go back and recover quickly. After all, the Imperial Envoy is still waiting."

Song Daiyan looked for an opportunity to interject. She nodded, "It all depends on your decision."

Four strong yamen servants carried Shi Yi and the bride to the back hall of the yamen together. Su Raoluo was walking slowly at the end. When passing by the narrow path connecting the prison and the prison, high walls erected on both sides, blocking the way.

The sunlight disappeared, leaving a large shadow covering Shi Yi and all the officials who were covered in blood.

The blood and shadow blend together, creating a melancholy and deep feeling.

There were several people walking beside him, looking majestic and inviolable.

Just drag him like that.

The toes scraped against the floor tiles, leaving an intermittent trail of blood.

"Old man, why do you do such a thankless thing?"

The cold and stiff words penetrated into her ears along the gap of time and space. It was the first time she asked questions after she was adopted. Due to a case, the old man was dismissed from his job, the door of his house was blocked, and stones were thrown at the windows.

, there was a bloody hole in his forehead.

Warm blood flows out, like an eternal nightmare that cannot be eliminated.

"Those people are ignorant, mediocre and incompetent. They can't tell right from wrong, and they can't recognize despicable good and bad. They turned against you and fought with fists and kicks based on some baseless words. Why do you still protect them?"

"Aluo, please remember, I am not protecting them, but justice and legal principles, human dignity, and the hand that can come to my aid one day when we are in great danger."

Surao never understood the meaning of this sentence before.

But later she understood.

If the legal principles are unfair and the rules and regulations are not correct, it is Shi Yi and Yuniang who are suffering today, and it may be her, Yan Yun, or anyone in this world in the future.

All she had to do was protect this hand.

Surao's eyes gradually solidified, and when she saw that they had passed through the corner door, she raised her feet and followed them...
