Chapter 105, thrown into the deepest part of the prison
"Uncle? What happened?" Under the light, Yu Chengxuan raised his head and looked at An Qinghe with squinted eyes. He just woke up. He looked still a little awake and saw An Qing and the coachman dressed up.
The way he looked, he immediately woke up.
"I'm fine, don't worry, I just went out to do some errands." An Qing Hejian woke up his nephew and said with a smile on his face.
In order to take care of Yu Chengxuan, the nephew and uncle lived together in the past few days.
"Little uncle...is this about Sister Jiao?" Yu Chengxuan sat up.
An Qinghe hurriedly stepped forward and put a cushion behind him, pushed him back and pulled the quilt up, for fear that he would be unwell: "You are taking care of your health now. Once you take good care of your body, everything will be fine."
Okay, my uncle is here for other things."
"Little uncle, I am no longer a child." Yu Chengxuan leaned back obediently, his eyes falling on An Qinghe, "little uncle, I know that my grandfather's family is gone, and the Zhengyuan Marquis Mansion is gone, too.
The current situation is not good, and there are still people who want our lives."
In the past few days, in addition to recuperating from illness, Yu Chengxuan would also talk to his mother and uncle. What he didn’t know was very clear. His uncle was cautious, but he still found out a lot about his mother. He knew that his sister had personally gone to save her mother.
Burning, Yu Chengxuan cried secretly several times.
The elder sister in his memory has always been the gentlest and most protective of him. When he was in Jiangnan, his elder sister would write letters from time to time, asking about his situation and caring about his health. Even though Jiangnan was far away from the capital, my elder sister's letters were still there.
It has never stopped, and I send some good medicinal materials from time to time.
"Uncle, I want to know who the enemy is?" Yu Chengxuan's eyes were fixed on An Qinghe.
An Qinghe had a trace of bitterness on his face and lowered his head. There were some things that he still couldn't figure out clearly, and it didn't look like he had a little clue.
It is not convenient for him to show up more now, nor can he investigate anything.
He would find out the revenge for the family's destruction no matter what. The person who avenged this blood feud had a trace of blood red in his eyes...
"Uncle, don't be sad, we will find out later." Yu Chengxuan was a sensible child. Seeing An Qinghe's appearance, he reached out to hold his big hand and comforted him.
"Yes, we will find out. We will definitely find out. When the time comes, we will avenge the blood feud between your sister and Duke An Guo." An Qinghe murmured in pain.
"Little uncle, don't worry, keep the green hills and don't worry about running out of firewood. I will help you in the future." Yu Chengxuan shook An Qinghe's hand.
"Okay!" An Yuan pursed her lips gently and forcefully, swallowing the sourness and pain in her heart, and a trace of blood flashed in her eyes.
Orphaned and widowed, together with myself as the imperial prisoner, my eldest sister and my own family, there are only a few people left, how can I not feel pain!
"Uncle, do we really want to go to Qidi?" Yu Chengxuan changed the topic and asked again.
Many things were piling up in my mind. I didn't know what my mother said clearly, and I didn't understand it from the look on my mother's face. Moreover, my mother had been crying in tears for the past few days, so Yu Chengxuan didn't dare to ask any more questions.
When I saw my uncle's behavior tonight, I couldn't help but speak.
"Yes, let's go to Qidi." An Qinghe gritted his teeth, raised his head and said, this matter was not hidden from Yu Chengxuan in the first place, "Xuan'er, you are the prince of Zhengyuan Hou, and you will also be responsible for everything in Zhengyuan Hou Mansion.
There are some things that I don’t hide from my uncle. The matters in your house are related to the second room in the Zhengyuan Hou Mansion, but if it was just the second room, it would be impossible to calculate this."
"Your mother was wrongly accused, and your sister went to defend herself and were imprisoned together. Your sister discovered an abnormality the night before the wedding, released your mother and then set herself on fire. It seems that everything happened to the Zhengyuan Hou Mansion, but if An Guo
If nothing happens to the Duke's palace, your mother and your sister will not be forced to this extent. It just so happens that something happens to the Duke of Anguo's palace three days before your sister gets married, and everyone in the family will be executed!"
An Qinghe's eyes were filled with an icy coldness.
Everything is connected in a series. If any link did not cooperate closely, the tragedy at Zhengyuan Hou Mansion would not have happened.
Yu Lanxuan's marriage was arranged early, and even the wedding date was set beforehand. The incident at An Guo Gong's Mansion happened a month ago, and An and Yu Lanxuan were already locked up at that time. After that, within a month, An Guo Gong's Mansion,
All the members of the family were executed on the charge of collaborating with the enemy. Three days later, something happened to the Marquis Mansion during the Expedition...
Thinking about it carefully, it makes one's heart tremble, as if there is a pair of invisible hands arranging everything, predicting the fall of An Guo Gongfu and the tragedy of Zhengyuan Hou Mansion.
Who has such great ability and has laid such a huge trap just to trap the Zhengyuan Hou Mansion and An Guo Gong Mansion?
"King Qi is the younger brother of the current emperor. At first, the late emperor was interested in King Qi, but something happened in the end. King Qi injured his leg. Then the emperor succeeded to the throne, and King Qi had to go to Qi. I heard that King Qi
When he left, he also took away some of the men given to him by the late emperor. In addition, Qi Di has a large area and abundant troops. Even if King Qi is just a vassal king now, no one can take a peek."
Under the light, An Qinghe said to Youyou, there were some words that he still wanted to explain to his nephew even though he was still young.
The prince of Zhengyuan Hou was destined not to return to ordinary life.
"Uncle, I heard many people say that King Qi is powerful." Yu Chengxuan thought for a while and asked, "Why can the emperor tolerate this?"
When he was in Jiangnan, he would occasionally go out to listen to the excitement. Seeing that he was young, others thought he was ignorant, and some things were said to him in front of him. Naturally, he would know more after hearing more.
"King Qi is powerful!" An Qinghe raised his lips mockingly, "In fact, it is not just King Qi that is powerful, the power of the vassal kings is also not small, but some are weak and some are strong, but if these powers are in one place, there will be no
A force can counteract it."
"Then...will it endanger the capital?" Yu Chengxuan was silent for a moment, and then asked with his eyes widened.
"Yes!" An Qinghe's eyes darkened.
"Then the current emperor..." Yu Chengxuan was startled and asked subconsciously.
An Qinghe shook his hand and signaled him to shut up: "That's why Qidi will send the crown prince to Beijing. It's not just Qidi but also the Zhongshan Kingdom. Besides Qidi, it's the Zhongshan Kingdom."
"The prince of Qi has no choice but to go to the capital, and he also has to go to the capital as a pledge?" Yu Chengxuan said, seeming to understand.
"Yes, Prince Qi has come to Beijing as a hostage, so the emperor is worried." An Qinghe sneered.
"But isn't it said that King Qi is powerful? Why did he let his prince come to Beijing?" Yu Chengxuan didn't quite understand, he looked up at An Qing and said blankly.
"The King of Qi is powerful, but he can't command the kings yet." An Qinghe said softly, and then looked at Huan Chengxuan, who was still confused, with a hint of gentleness in his eyes, and reached out to touch Yu Chengxuan's head, "You can leave this matter for the time being.
You don’t need to understand, you just know that the emperor has nothing to do with King Qi now, and King Qi may not be able to shake the imperial power now."
"We went to Qidi to seek asylum, and now we have contacted the Prince of Qi. Once we reach Qidi, no matter who in the capital wants to plot against us, they will not dare to send anyone here at will."
An Qinghe's voice was low and powerful, every word seemed to be considered and weighed, and his single eyes became brighter and brighter under the light.
Miss Yu San has chosen a good place for herself. Qidi is really the only place in the world where she can live...
The carriage moved forward in the night. It was not the curfew time yet, and there were still people coming and going on the road. The carriage did not avoid passers-by, and went straight to the Ministry of Punishment.
When we arrived in front of the criminal department, we entered through the left door. There were already people waiting. When they saw the carriage approaching, several government officials stood aside. The first person smiled and watched the carriage stop.
The coachman jumped out of the carriage, pulled out a person wrapped in a black bag from the carriage, and threw it heavily on the ground.
A woman's muffled sound came from the bag.
"This woman has something to do with the assassination of the Crown Prince. Now she is placed in the Ministry of Punishment. She will be brought to trial when our Crown Prince is free."
The coachman kicked the bag on the ground with his foot and said sullenly to a small official in front of him.
"Okay, you should obey your orders." The junior official hurriedly said with a smile. How dare he offend the people around the Prince of Qi? In the past few days, the Prince of Qi has been releasing people here a lot. From time to time, he will send one and say that it is related to the case.
It's just that in the past, all the men were sent here. Today, a woman was sent here, which was surprising.
But no matter how unexpected it was, the petty officials did not dare to ask more questions.
"This is the first delivery?" the coachman asked without leaving in a hurry.
The petty official hurriedly took out a notebook from his arms, opened it and looked at it: "There are already a hundred."
In just a few days, a hundred suspects have been sent to the prison cells of the Criminal Department. If this continues, the prison cells of the Criminal Department will not be enough.
"It happens to be a hundred, so let's do it. For the time being, it's just a hundred. Let's make up a good number. Lucky for you, we won't send any more in the next two days." The coachman waved his hand and looked at the book that the petty official pushed in front of him.
dont see.
The petty official's expression froze. He gathered a hundred of them. What was he planning to do? What do you mean he would not send them again in the future? Can you just send them if you want?
But he didn't dare to say this, let alone him. Even the Minister of the Ministry of Punishment had nothing to do with the Prince of Qi, so he agreed to his rude request and put some people who the Prince of Qi thought had something to do with his assassination.
Please help me guard the prisoner first, and then interrogate him when Prince Qi is free.
After the coachman finished speaking, he jumped onto the carriage arrogantly and drove away.
"Sir, this...is too...excessive!" a government official couldn't help but said.
"Shut up!" the junior official scolded, "If you still want to live, don't say anything. If Prince Qi's people say that you are a suspect, Master Shangshu will not be able to protect you."
The officials who heard these words shuddered. In just a few days, Prince Qi's reputation for being arrogant and domineering had already spread throughout the capital.
"What should I do with this... this woman?" a government servant stuttered.
"Just throw them into the deepest part of the prison. Those locked up at the end are all the people sent here by Prince Qi." The petty official said impatiently.
The innermost cells are the darkest, and no one usually goes there. In the past few days, the people sent in by Prince Qi have been complaining a lot, so stay away from them to avoid being upset by the noise...
