Chapter 24 Shock (Part 1)

The prison in Yecheng is located in a corner of Tongqueyuan in the northwest corner of the city, close to the arsenal, not far from Santai. The walls of the prison are both high and thick, not lower than the city walls; and the walls are all made of women, scepters and corner towers. It is said that it is a prison, but it is actually a fortress that cannot be attacked.

This architectural habit was also imitated by Luoyang, the capital of Wei, which was later built. Luoyang also set up a solid city in the northwest corner, which is the so-called Jinyong City.

Under the custody of a large number of elite soldiers, Lu Yao was thrown into a heavily guarded prison in the castle. This prison was set up semi-underground, and was obliquely passed by a narrow corridor, and passed through a thick wooden door wrapped in iron leaves. It took about fifty steps to get there. The prison was wrapped in huge stones on three sides, and the side close to the corridor was an iron bar as thick as a finger. Two dim oil lamps were lit in the corridor, and there was no light source.

Perhaps because it is very close to Xuanwu Pool, the prison is very wet, with thick moss growing everywhere on the walls, about 30% of the ground is filled with ankle-deep water, and most of the straw mats on the rest of the ground have been rotten, and there is something else mixed with, emitting a disgusting and unpleasant smell. Fortunately, there are a few rough tables placed in the cell, so Lu Yao sat cross-legged on the table and sat down for the time being.

The soldiers pushed Lu Yao into the prison and left. No matter how Lu Yao called loudly, no one paid attention to it. Half an hour later, the footsteps in the corridor were heard, Xue Tong and others were escorted in with swords and guns, and Hu Liuniang was also among them. She cursed angrily, as if a soldier touched her halfway, intending to be rude. Xue Tong and others went to stop it, which almost triggered a fierce fight. After a while, the two brothers Shen Jin, He Yun, Chu Kun, Ding Yu and Ding Jin, who were beaten to the blue face, were also thrown into the prison. Shen Jin was the most embarrassed, with only a pair of shorts on his body, and the spring scenery was revealed along the way, and he was ridiculed.

Finally, Ding Miao was tied up in the prison. Looking at Ding Miao's appearance, he was obviously tortured, his mouth and nose were bleeding, and half of his face was swollen like a pig's head, his clothes were broken, and his body was covered with whip marks. Even so, his spirit was as strong as ever. As soon as he entered the prison, he cursed, scolded for a few words and coughed, and spit out two knocked teeth.

After everyone came in, they had to ask each other what was wrong. How could Shen Jin and others dare to deceive him at this time? They had to start with several of them secretly going to prostitutes. They said that Ding Miao, who sneaked into the toilet of King Xincai, was found to be angry and beaten His Highness King Xincai. They also said that King Xincai's troops immediately took action and captured Ding Miao, Shen Jin and others who were immersed in the gentle land.

When Xue Tong and others heard this, their lungs were almost blown out. In the afternoon, the warriors under King Xincai searched all over the city's museums and residences, surrounded Xue Tong and others. Xue Tong and others dared not act rashly, so they had to surrender. They suffered a lot of losses and were even more indescribable. They were worried and afraid. But they knew it was caused by the ridiculous actions of Ding Miao and others?

Xue Tong immediately gave He Yun and Chu Kun a heavy kick, and his eyes looked at Ding Miao, which was quite unkind.

Lu Yao frowned and his face was very gloomy. Such an incredible situation really made him angry. If it were not Ding Miao who caused the trouble but other subordinates, Lu Yao would have punished him a lot.

As for Chen Jin... he was so stupid that he finally brought him to Yecheng. This was a very stupid decision! Some people were probably born to cause trouble. Just like Chen Jin, after he was in charge of Jicheng, he clashed with Liu Yan at the Jinyang City Gate, tried to serve as a beautiful woman to lure him into the water at Guojiawu Fort, and proposed to abandon the city and leave when the Huns were approaching Jinyang City... Everything was so unhappy.

It is rare to come to Yecheng once, but he actually caused a disaster like a splash of the sky out of thin air!

Over the years, the Central Committee of the Jin Dynasty has been in constant wars, and the Eight Kings have successively raised troops to compete for the power of the court. With the war, there were several sect kings killed. But it was a strife between the clan members. In the final analysis, it was a fight between the Sima family's relatives! Have you ever seen a prince who left the town with a heavy title and beating up by a mere little officer?

If this matter is a big deal, how can Mr. Yue Shi take care of himself? With King Xincai's vindictive character, I don't know how many variables will arise, and I don't know how many unimaginable troubles will occur!

Lu Yao stared at Chen Jin hard. He subconsciously pressed his metacarpal bones, making crackling sounds, and tried to say to himself: It would be useless to vent his anger, so it would be better to discuss the next response strategy. But the strong emotions interrupted his attempt to calmly think again and again, causing him to fall into frenzy.

Lu Yao was in a bad mood, and Sima Teng, the King of Xincai, who was beaten by Ding Miao, was even more unbearable.

About two miles east of the prison city is the Minghe Hall where Lu Yao was originally waiting to meet King Xincai.

The lights in Minghe Hall were brightly lit, and dozens of officials stood in the hall with their hands hanging down, waiting for the chariot and cavalry general Xin Cai, who was in charge of the military and political power in Yecheng, to make a decision.

Sima Teng leaned against the soft couch, his body was very ineffective. Although Ding Miao did not take all his strength, those few moments were enough to bring great pain to him who was accustomed to being pampered. He felt that every joint of his bones was making unbearable whine, and the fracture of the bridge of the nose made him unable to breathe normally. His whole face felt as if it was burned by flames, and tears couldn't stop it.

"I want to kill them...kill them..." Sima Teng murmured repeatedly. Although his voice was light, it was filled with an indescribable mania.

Surround him were still Sima Yu, Zhou Liang and Shi Xian and other close subordinates. They looked at each other and waved their hands to ask the medical officer to withdraw first.

"Your Highness, the envoy of Bingzhou is so rude. It is really indignant. There is no need for Your Highness to order, several of us want to eat his flesh! Sleep his skin!" Zhou Liang carefully observed Sima Teng's expression and said slowly: "But, your highness's health is the most important thing. You might as well recover from the wounds first, and then slowly cure them after healing..."

Since he arrived in Yecheng, Zhou Liang was the most favored, and Sima Teng almost obeyed him. However, this time, Sima Teng seemed to have not heard Zhou Liang's words at all, and just continued to grit his teeth and said, "I must kill them!"

Zhou Liang shook two glances at Sima Yu and Shi Xian with a bitter face, but the two of them did not move at all. So he had to say again: "Compared with His Highness's body of gold, these Bingzhou envoys are like ants, and they are easy to kill. But... they are the envoys of Bingzhou Governor Liu Kun after all."

"Liu Kun?" Sima Teng suddenly raised his head.

Zhou Liang responded: "Yes, they are Liu Kun's envoys... Liu Kun is in Jinyang, with tens of thousands of elite soldiers and fierce generals under his command. He defeated the 100,000 Huns a few months ago. The King of the East Sea leaned on him like the Great Wall of the Northern Frontier..." Seeing Sima Teng's face change, he quickly changed his voice: "Although Jinyang is strong, his strength is far inferior to Yecheng. Liu Kun must have known it well, otherwise he would not send an envoy to see you. It's just that those envoys were vulgar and ignorant, and they offended Your Highness. With His Highness's god, he would be able to forgive the crimes of those envoys, he would definitely make Liu Kun grateful."

"Fart!" Sima Teng shouted angrily, stepped forward and wanted to jump up, then howled and fell back to the couch.

"Medical officer! Medical officer!" Zhou Liang and others were all shocked and quickly called the medical officer to come in and apply the medicine again. They decocted another decoction to calm the spirit and gave Sima Teng to take. After a long time, he was relieved.

As the governor of Bingzhou, he lost his troops and lost his territory, and was forced to flee to Yecheng by the Huns in a panic, it was obviously a heart disease of Sima Teng. The successor Liu Kun, the governor of Bingzhou, undoubtedly made the severity of his heart disease worse. Sima Teng sneered repeatedly: "You all think I am not as good as Liu Kun, right? You are all afraid of him and dare not offend him, right?"

This sentence was heartbreaking. Zhou Liang, Sima Yu, and Shi Xian were so scared that they knelt down together, and kowtowed hard, causing the ground to thump.

"Liu Kun is just a flashy and clever man. He has been to Bingzhou for only a few months and has won a victory! I have been in Bingzhou for seven years! If I had not been in Bingzhou for the past seven years, the Huns would have swept the northern border long ago!" Sima Teng waved his arms and knocked on the edge of the couch, shouting hard, as if he was crazy: "Gu is the general of the chariot and cavalry! It is King Xincai! Gu tells you, Gu is ten times stronger than Liu Kun! A hundred times stronger!"

"Yes! Your Highness is wise! Your Highness is so powerful that he will naturally move beyond Liu Kun's clown!" Zhou Liang flattered.

Shi Xianze said: "Then Liu Kun defeated the Huns in a small victory, but it was all due to the power of Tuoba Xianbei. The one who joined forces with Tuoba Xianbei in the past, wasn't you, King Cai? Liu Kun just got what happened because of others! Without your profound planning, how could the current stable situation in Bingzhou be there!"

Sima Yu nodded repeatedly: "Your Highness, you are a noble family member, your military strategy is enough to suppress the Huns, and your governance is deeply rooted in the true meaning of inaction and doing everything... You are the white jade pillar of the Great Jin Dynasty, and the purple gold beam of the sea is built. Then Liu Kun is just a lackey, what's the point!"

The three of them are surging flatteringly, praising Sima Teng's talent and strategy to the point of being rare in the sky and nothing underground.

Sima Teng is a fool. If he were to be ordinary, he would probably feel so disgusting with such inferior flattery. But after being beaten by Ding Miao, he really felt that his energy was not enough and his brain became a little dull. Or maybe it was because the calming potion he had just taken had its effect. He listened to these words with satisfaction, his head slowly lowered, and he actually fell asleep.

Zhou Liang and others cooperated tacitly, bragging non-stop, and their voices became lighter and lighter.

"Your Highness... Your Highness..." Zhou Liang called out a few times. Sima Teng did not answer, obviously asleep. All the three of them breathed a sigh of relief. Shi Xian waved his hand to order the maid to come in and covered Sima Teng with a soft velvet cover. Then the three of them stepped out gently.

*******

I had something happened yesterday afternoon and passed by somewhere in the Demon City. I suddenly thought that I was working here twelve years ago. The joy and ambition at that time seemed to be very clear at that time. Unfortunately, my income was lost in the end. Those rare experiences of others turned into topics of talk when bragging and fucking. The carved railings and jade are still there, and the fallen flowers and water are gone. Twelve years have passed in a flash, and my heart is sad and melancholy.
