In the ice prison, Yan Wenying was curled up on the ground like a dead dog. He no longer looked like he used to boss around in the palace, and instead looked like a bereaved dog.
What he did was destined to end like this. He was careful in the palace without looking at the dynasty. For the Tian family of the Song Dynasty, the palace servants were servants. If they cared about the king's affairs, they would be treated with courtesy. If there was anything wrong, they would be treated politely.
If you think about it, you will be thrown into jail at any time.
Yan Wenying had been in the palace for many years and served two generations of emperors. Even if he did not follow Lu Yijian, he would still have a good life in the palace. Even the nobles in the harem would call him "Grand Officer Yan".
Ending up in such a situation is the result of his heart being driven by desire.
Of course, he is also a tool. Civil servants have always looked down on internal servants. The historical fact that internal servants have oppressed courtiers in the past dynasties is like a whip that constantly whips civil servants' vigilance towards internal servants.
He took off his plush cloak and threw it to Yan Wenying, who immediately wrapped himself up like a rice dumpling.
"Give him some thicker bedding and give him hot water three times a day to prevent him from freezing to death in this ice prison."
The Bingjing Service officer smiled and said: "Guan Gou, you are such a good man, but it's a pity that he can't survive even with these things. Look at the current situation around you. It's been cold to the bone without seeing the sun all year round. No matter how much you give him,
There is no use in keeping out the cold, it will definitely be cold and damp in a few days, and it will be worse than being cut to pieces by a thousand cuts!"
Ye An nodded slightly. Indeed, in a place like this, as long as you can't light a fire to keep warm and dry out the moisture, your life will be short. Even a healthy young man can't bear it, let alone an old chamberlain who has been beaten like this.
Chen Lin looked at Ye An and shook her head helplessly: "I know you want to save his life, but you might as well give him a happy life. Why, when did you feel compassion for him?"
Yan Wenying on the ground was trembling slightly. He heard Chen Lin's words and felt the warmth of the fur clothes on his body. He slowly raised his head and looked at Ye An and said: "The guilty prisoner does not deserve to be excused by Ye Hou. I just ask you to give me a happy life!"
Ye An sighed helplessly: "If I had known today, why would I bother? The official once said that the most accurate person in the palace was Yan Wenying! Who would have thought that it was you who colluded with Lu Yijian? Why did you do this?"
"I am not willing to give in! I am not angry in my heart! I have served the Tian family with all my heart for so many years. Although my qualifications are lower than those of Chen Daguan and Lan Daguan, I can still be a forbidden chief officer. Who knows that even the Ministry of Internal Affairs is not allowed to do so?
It would be most appropriate for Senior Officer Lan to take charge of the affairs of the palace. Everyone knows that this is only in name only. He can only check for leaks and fill in the gaps everywhere in the palace. As time goes by, he will... eh! I shouldn't regret it in the first place!"
Chen Lin snorted coldly and said: "Short-sighted! Do you know how high-ranking an internal official you are, the deputy governor of the Ministry of Internal Affairs? The ministers of internal servants in the outer dynasty are definitely not as good as you! I know you have resentment in your heart,
Lao Lan has already decided to give way to you next year. As long as Li can serve the officials well, he will say good things to you in front of the officials. Do you know why Lao Lan has never seen you? You were promoted by him.
I can’t bear to see you end up like this!”
Originally, Yan Wenying thought that he was just a victim in the political struggle. If the speculation was successful, he would get the status he wanted. But now it seems that Lan Jizong has actually paved the way for himself, but he is always smart and confused!
Yan Wenying, who had nothing to say anymore, sat slumped on the ground. After a long time, he suddenly got up the strength without knowing where he came from, and bowed to Chen Lin: "I, Yan Wenying, was imprisoned at the age of eight. I have been serving the Tian family with all my heart, but now I have committed a crime."
It's a big mistake, but I have nothing to say. I don't dare to complain about the Tian family's ruthlessness. I just hope that Chen Daguan and Lan Daguan will not take into account the faults of the slaves. I beg Yehou to intercede in front of the officials and allow the guilty prisoners to be buried in their hometown after death!"
After saying that, he hit the wall with all his strength, and the plasma splashed out with all his strength. The Bingjing Warden next to him was shocked and rushed over to check, but it was too late. Yan Wenying had already died.
Chen Lin sighed: "You deserve to die..."
Ye An shook his head slightly: "You overestimate your capabilities and get involved in the palace fight. It's no wonder that others end up like this. The court game and palace fights are always the most dangerous. Once involved, you will be doomed!"
Seeing Chen Lin's emotional look, Ye An couldn't help but said: "You can't bear it, right? Saying such words at this time, after all, you are soft-hearted. I didn't expect that you, a murderous officer like Chen, would still feel compassion?"
Chen Lin was furious: "Who said that a certain family is soft-hearted!" But then she said with an embarrassed face: "After all, you have been working for the Tian family all your life, and you have to work hard without any merit. It is not an exaggeration to take care of your son..."
Ye An curled his lips. Chen Lin's excuse was really not good. If he wanted to take care of Yan Wenying's son, just say so. But in Ye An's opinion, taking care of him was not a wise move.
Yan Sizong was not Yan Wenying's biological son, but was adopted by a clan brother. He served as the third-class loan officer of the third class in the palace. He was a junior envoy. Although he was not a high-ranking official, he was also a military attaché at the level of the emperor's palace servant.
.
Originally, if Yan Wenying was still alive, it would have been okay for him to look after him and be promoted to ambassador. However, if Yan Wenying died due to his crime, I am afraid that his career would have died in the middle.
After taking a look at the corpse covered with white cloth, Ye An ordered the Bingjing Warden: "You should collect the remains. After all, you are a high official in the palace. Even if you die, you must not be insulted. Send someone to the place where his clan is."
!”
Oshi immediately nodded and said: "I will do it now, don't dare to neglect Guan Gou's instructions!"
The training of the Imperial City Division is still going on. Every time Ye An leaves the dungeon of Bingjingwu, he feels like he has been reborn. The darkness and depression there are unbearable for ordinary people.
The Royal City Imperial Guards were marching with heavy loads on the school grounds. Ye An looked at the sun and joined in. What is most comfortable in winter, of course, is to take a hot shower after sweating!
At Ye An's strong request, Feng Shanxin took out the Zha armor. Although it was not as thick as the foot armor, it was still not light. Before wearing this kind of armor, one had to wear a leather vest underneath and then put on the body armor.
The Zhajia of the Tang Dynasty had been greatly improved and changed by the Song Dynasty. When he first came to the Song Dynasty, Ye An once regarded Zhajia as a foot soldier, but in fact it was far different.
Zhajia is already considered a type of heavy armor, and it requires Feng Shanxin to assist Ye An in order to put it on.
First, the thick shoulder armor hangs on the body like a half breastplate, mainly protecting the back and main parts of the upper body. Then there is a large breastplate covering the front chest, and the back armor serves as another defense. Next, there is the thick armor.
The skirt armor, the coat armor that protects the crotch and the falcon tail that protects the buttocks make the torso area impregnable. Now it is the turn of the armpits and arm guards on the arms, and finally the waist guards to protect the waist.
Not only Ye An, but also Feng Shanxin, who was cooperating with him, was sweating after putting on a set of armor. The armor was made of stacked iron sheets, which was enough to defend against long-distance shots from strong bows and crossbows.
Not only that, but finally you have to wear a helmet, which is a helmet. The body is worn as armor and the head is worn as a armor, so it is called armor!
In Chen Lin's view, Ye An was asking for trouble. How could any high-ranking official take the lead in training? Anyway, for so many years in the government, he had never seen a military general training with the soldiers in person. He was the only one who enjoyed it and never tired of it.
In the school field, we train together with the soldiers to be strong and tenacious.
"One, one, one two one! One, two, three, four, one two three four!"
A simple slogan was shouted from Ye An's mouth, followed by a chorus of echoes like a mountain roar and a tsunami. The team jogged past Chen Lin. The experience of stepping on the ground made his soles numb, and the roar that shook Chen Lin's heart made Chen Lin
I wonder if thousands of troops are rushing past...
