Chapter 1 Both(1/2)

As several thunders exploded in the horizon, the capital in July ushered in a heavy rain.

Zhou Rujun stood up, the girl Chou Qing's long hair was scattered behind her. Although her face looked thin, she was haggard but still beautiful.

The prison door was opened by the jailer.

Zhou Rujun reached out and picked up the medicine barrel, followed the prison officer to leave the cell where the female family was imprisoned, and walked deeper into the prison.

"Give me a bowl of medicine, I'm going to die."

More than a month ago, it was suddenly circulated in the prison. The prisoners and prisoners fell ill one after another. The medicine sent by the Imperial Hospital did not work after taking it. Finally, a doctor Sun was invited to treat it.

The detained female family members also fell ill one after another. She was safe and sound. Doctor Sun looked at her: "Follow me to send medicine!"

She nodded and began to walk in the prison.

A bowl of medicine was sent out, and the prisoner immediately drank it, as if he had grabbed a life-saving straw.

Some people also spoke dirty words.

"How could such a beautiful lady be in prison? What crime did she commit? Shouldn't she have an affair with someone..."

If she had been in the past, she might have been angry, but now she said calmly: "The crime of treason."

The frivolous laughter suddenly came to an abrupt end, and no one wanted to be involved in rebellion.

"It's really a crime of treason? Wouldn't it be killed? What a pity, I've never seen such a beautiful woman."

When she was just taken to prison, she thought it was a dream.

She just went to the Princess's Mansion for a banquet as usual. Later, she heard that the Princess and the Second Prince conspired to murder the prince in the garden. After being exposed by the prince, the two of them raised an army to force the palace...

Someone in the eldest princess's mansion confessed that the eldest prince ordered her to seduce the prince to the garden, so she became a rebel.

Doctor Sun, carrying the medicine box, walked up to her: "Have the medicine been delivered?"

Zhou Rujun said: "A few are still missing."

Doctor Sun nodded: "The epidemic in the prison is no longer hindered. The master of the Ministry of Justice told me not to come tomorrow."

Zhou Rujun saluted to Doctor Sun: "Thank you for your care in these days."

Doctor Sun said: "Get up quickly, thank you for your hard work these days. I have reported to the yamen that you should have the best efforts to treat the epidemic. I hope the court will consider this and check your case carefully."

Zhou Rujun saluted again.

Doctor Sun sighed: "I heard that Dingning Hou has returned to the capital after winning the battle. You are his wife who has not passed the door. He may not plead for you."

Even the Zhou family gave up on her, let alone Cui Zhen.

Her marriage with Cui Zhen, the Marquis of Dingning, was made by the eldest princess. After the two families decided to marry, she went to the Cui family to be a guest. Cui Zhen never looked at her, probably because she was disliked by her, but she could not refuse because of the eldest princess' face.

Now that something happened to the eldest princess, the Choi family wanted to leave her alone immediately.

Sun Langzhong said: "Even if the Cui family refuses to help, as long as there is a glimmer of hope, don't give up."

"Sir, don't worry, I will try my best to survive." She has seen too many people and things in prison for so long, and she knows that nothing is more important than life.

After seeing off Doctor Sun, Zhou Rujun walked to the other side of the prison.

"Girl, you're here."

A voice sounded from my heart, and Zhou Rujun subconsciously turned her head to look over, but her eyes were empty cells.

Mr. Yang, Mr. Rong, Mr. Zhang, and Yan Tanhua, she met many people in prison, talked to them, and watched them being taken to the execution ground.

Mr. Yang had eye disease, Madam Rong's face was burned, Mr. Zhang suffered a strange disease, and Yan Tanhua's arms were cut off. Although they were convicted prisoners, who were just waiting for Qiu Hou to ask for the death, would die sooner or later, she still couldn't bear it in her heart, so she asked Doctor Sun for medicine.

Gradually, she also learned some of their secrets and grievances.

"You girl is so smart, you will definitely be able to do great things in the future. I didn't expect to suffer such a disaster. Unfortunately, I was in a hurry to follow the wrong person and was sent to scapegoat. They are now in a hurry to let me die, otherwise I can plan for you to save you from danger.

These stupid people are so harmful to me. You must know that with me, even if he has nothing now, I will plan everything for him. In the future, if I don’t have it, it will be difficult for them to accomplish anything. What they abandon is not a small staff member, but an unparalleled national warrior..."

"The girl will go out of this prison in the future, so don't be trapped in the inner house. It is said that the world belongs to men. Women can only gain wealth and glory by relying on men. They are all stupid words, planning for him and running around for him. If he succeeds and fame in the future, he will only abandon you like a piece of grass. Why not be free by yourself?"

"I have a sum of money. If you go out and help me do something, I will give it to you? Fame is all false, and money is the most realistic. With these money, you can make a fortune in one's life, two in two, and four in a quiet voice, and be a rich idle person..."

"The prison of the Ministry of Justice is a serious criminal in the court, and it is extremely vicious. No matter what you hear them say when you send medicine, don't take those words to heart, but you can try to interrupt their words and what are their crimes?"

Yan Tanhua was once the chief judge and went to several prefectures, and countless murderers were trapped in his hands.

Zhou Rujun said: "What about you? You are also a vicious person?"

Yan Tanhua was silent for a moment.

...

They all gave her something when they left.

Mr. Zhang gave her a few pearls.

Mr. Yang said: "If you can go out alive, don't be controlled by others in the future. Only those who can stir up the wind and rain and hide deeply are great."

Mrs. Rong is a female offender. She has been with Mrs. Rong the longest time. When Mrs. Rong was taken away, she stood up and bowed to him.

Mrs. Rong smiled sweetly, and the scar on her face seemed to disappear in an instant: "Although your fiancé doesn't like you, if you have the chance to see him in prison, you still have to let him see your face. Even if the man's heart is rock, he can find a gap to pry it, use him to escape from here, and then let him taste the feeling of not being able to get it.

Remember that between men and women, whoever is not moved is the winner. Those beloved men who treat you wholeheartedly are just absurd words in the story. As for those rules and etiquette, they are even more of a means to torture women. Don’t lose your life for the so-called reputation.”

Everyone in the prison has their own toxicity, but those outside can be guilty of invisible crimes. Who is more terrifying?

Her relatives abandoned her, but these "extremely sinful" prisoners hoped that she could survive.

Yan Tanhua sighed before leaving: "I have been pursuing those murderers in my life, but I didn't expect that I ended up like this. Unfortunately, I have no chance, otherwise I will definitely take down all those people..."

They all left, were framed, and were plotted to be thrown into the death row. They could only die silently with them, and they were unwilling to accept it.

Isn't that the case with her?

...

Zhou Rujun set her eyes on the darkness not far away.

She was locked up here for a long time. At first, the two uncles would come to comfort her, but then there was no news at all.

"Master, the wife has been here early. The old lady raised you with great difficulty. Now seeing you like this, the old lady is anxious and has fallen ill in bed, so it may not be possible.

Everyone in the family will take care of you, but this is a rebellion case. If you are really convicted, the entire Zhou clan will be implicated."

This is the last thing the manager's mother said to her.

"I understand," Zhou Rujun nodded, "I will never recognize anything I have never done."

At that time, she thought that her grandmother and uncle were afraid that she would admit the crime in a mess, but she could see the truth clearly when the mother said that she was in charge of the truth.

"The second master and the third master told me that if you make a mistake in the prison... they will try every means to keep your reputation."

They were trying to commit suicide.

The female family members were sent to prison and had no reputation. Some people would rather commit suicide than suffer such a great humiliation.

But if she wants to live, she just needs to live.

She didn't expect the Zhou family to save her. As long as they didn't take any harm, she might have a chance to go out.

Just as she was about to move forward, she found that a shadow seemed to be shaking in the darkness not far away. Her face couldn't help but change, and someone was staring at her in the dark.

Who could it be? The person who came to kill her? When the epidemic was spread in prison, they did not take action. Now that she has survived safely, she can't help but come and take her life.

Zhou Rujun withdrew her gaze. She didn't want to alarm the person. Just as Yan Tanhua said, she should not reveal any clues before she was sure to control everything.

Zhou Rujun slowly walked to a prison without realizing anything, put down the medicine barrel in her hand, and looked at the boy lying there.

She squatted down and tried his forehead with the back of her hand, and the heat finally faded.

After Mr. Yang and the others were executed, he was thrown into a prison and lay there silently, like a dead person.

The first time she gave him the medicine, the jailer said to stop him: "No need to waste medicine, it's no longer possible."

He had many wounds on his body, and his body was as hot as charcoal, which really looked dangerous.

"Sir said that the doctor is kind and will blame me if I know that I have not delivered the medicine."

After that, she brought medicine every day and asked Dr. Sun for some injury medicine. After all, his health was good, his condition was not serious, and he had not been infected with the epidemic.

Zhou Rujun put the medicine bowl on the boy's mouth, waited slowly for him to swallow it, and then took out the dry food and stuffed it into his mouth.

It took a lot of effort to give him food for the first time. The food in the prison was so crude that it was difficult to swallow. The dry food she received was given to her by the prison guard because of the expression of Doctor Sun.

The cold and hard food was difficult to swallow for a while, and the boy held it in his mouth for a long time before he ate it.

Seeing him as tough as a pampas, she couldn't help but think of herself, so she would come to deliver some food every day.

She stuffed the cold and hard millet cake into his mouth, and then groped for the sharp weapon in her sleeve. This iron-like object was found in a prison cell. The prisoner had died of illness, so she took the weapon away.

Thinking about the shadows hiding in the darkness just now, just in case, she quietly held the sharp weapon in her hand and slowly grinded it on the bluestone.

The sharper the grinding, the more chance she will win.

After a while, she raised her head, but she met his gaze.

He is not very old, and his pair of Aifeng eyes are extremely bright.

She didn't explain, tear off the dress and wrapped it around her palms, so that the sharp weapon could be held tighter and not slipped away when killing people.

Just as she was about to put down her sleeve, her hand was suddenly pulled.

She raised her head again, his eyes dark and deep, as if he could see through what she was thinking. After a moment he raised his arm and pointed to his left armpit.
