That night, my uncle and Zhang Lei, who had been tried by the court, huddled in the corner of the prison tremblingly.
The environment in the cell was extremely poor. The floor was covered with dirt and some straw was used as a cushion around it. He had to eat, drink, and defecate in a small space.
Both of them had dozens of kilograms of iron chains tied around their necks and wrists. The slightest movement would cause bleeding marks on their delicate skin.
"Dad, how could this happen..." Zhang Lei cried sadly.
"You ask me, who should I ask?
!”
The uncle's face was filled with grief and indignation, fear and anger, "What do Ye Fan's family do to make us suffer like this!"
"Dad, are you still talking about Mark?"
Zhang Lei said angrily: "It's all your fault. You can't get along with the envoys. They have already given in. You still want to insult them!"
"White-eyed wolf, you still have the nerve to blame me?"
The uncle said angrily: "It's all your fault. You knew I was in a bad mood, but you didn't hold me by your side!"
"How do I pull it?"
Zhang Lei moved away and said angrily: "How many times have I told you, don't be so arrogant! In the past, you caused a lot of trouble in the town, and I had to come and wipe your ass every time! You are in other people's territory.
It’s still a dog that can’t change its habit of eating shit, but now it’s better, and I’m also in trouble!”
"What?
!”
The uncle couldn't believe his ears.
He never expected that his son would actually say such words to him! "Crack!"
At this moment, the jailer came in carrying a wooden bucket. The food in it was pretty good, and there were even a few pieces of fat.
The uncle and Zhang Lei had been hungry all day. When they saw this kind of food, they didn't care whether it was clean or not, so they hurriedly grabbed it and ate it.
"Eat more and get ready to go!"
The jailer's soft words rang out, shocking the uncle and his son to a sudden halt.
"On the road?"
Zhang Lei's eyes widened and he said in shock: "Brother, you...what do you mean?"
"You two have been sentenced to death and will go to the execution ground at eight o'clock tomorrow morning.
This is your last meal. After that, go to bed early. If you need anything, just ask and we will try our best to satisfy you!"
The jailer said expressionlessly, as if he was used to this kind of thing.
"How...how could this happen?"
The uncle stared blankly at the food in his hand, and suddenly shouted: "I...I want to see Ye Fan! This eldest brother, you...you help me invite Mark over..." "Thanks to you, now
Relations are extremely tense and war may break out at any time.
Mr. Ye has been taken away and is now under investigation! In addition, everyone related to Mr. Ye has been expelled from the central community and sent to the frontier for labor reform.
I estimate that because of the number of people you have been implicated, there are not even a hundred but eighty people, and now the entire imperial city is scolding you both when they are mentioned.
If the boss hadn't controlled it in time, I'm afraid this fire would have burned even more powerful people! Even if you don't die tomorrow, there will be countless people who want to kill you both in the future."
The jailer calmly shrugged his shoulders, "This matter has nothing to do with me. I'll tell you what I've told you. Just listen to it and enjoy it. Tomorrow, your heads will fall and all your worries will disappear."
"No...I don't want to die, I don't want to die!"
Zhang Lei cried for his father and mother, pointed at his uncle and shouted loudly: "It's all his fault. It's all his fault. It has nothing to do with me! If you want to kill him, just kill him. I'm innocent!"
"The matter has become so big that there is nothing innocent anymore."
The jailer curled his lips and said calmly.
"Master Ye is innocent, and everyone involved is innocent. Only you two deserve it! Alas... Master Ye is such a good official, but it was unlucky to meet two of your relatives! Okay, that's all.
You guys eat slowly and call me if you need anything!"
The jailer glanced at them both sideways and walked out of the cell.
The uncle was in a daze, his hands and feet were cold, how could he still have the appetite to eat?
Zhang Lei's eyes turned red, and he suddenly rushed to his uncle, pressed him down and strangled his neck.
"You immortal broom star, it's all your fault, it's all your fault! You're going to die anyway, so I'll kill you first!"
"Ah..." The uncle didn't react until this moment and struggled desperately.
Zhang Lei was so obese that his uncle couldn't breathe due to the pinch. His face gradually lost color and his eyes began to turn white.
"Crash!"
Suddenly, there was a cry of killing outside.
Immediately afterwards, the prison door was opened and several men in black rushed in.
These men in black were holding bright swords in their hands, with blood dripping from the blades.
"You...what do you do?"
Zhang Lei was so shocked that he quickly got off his father, blocked him in front of him, and shrank into a corner.
"Are you Mr. Ye's uncle and cousin?"
The leader of the men in black asked in a deep voice.
"No, no, it has nothing to do with me!"
Zhang Lei thought these people were sent to kill them by the officials involved, so he quickly shook his head and pushed his uncle out.
"He is Ye Fan's uncle. I don't know anyone or anything!"
Zhang Lei was so frightened that his crotch was so wet that he actually peed in fear.
The leading man in black saw this and nodded slightly to his subordinates.
"yes!"
The man in black behind him immediately stepped forward, raising his machete high.
"ah!!!"
Zhang Lei was horrified and quickly saved his head, "Don't kill me, don't kill me!"
"Crack!"
Unexpectedly, the target of these men in black was not them, but the iron chains on their bodies.
Fire radiated everywhere, and the iron chain broke with a sound.
"You two, we were hired by Mr. Ye to rescue you. Come with us!"
The leader of the men in black said hello, and his men immediately picked up the confused Zhang Lei and his uncle and hurriedly ran outside.
Zhang Lei saw that the prison was full of blood, and dozens of jailers and men in black were lying in a pool of blood, completely lifeless.
"hiss!"
Zhang Lei was dumbfounded and his heart was beating like a drum.
He had only seen things like prison robbery in TV dramas, but he didn't expect it to happen in reality, and it happened to him! Suddenly, all kinds of negative emotions of nervousness, fear, and worry surged into his heart.
, making it difficult for him to even breathe.
Fortunately, their escape process went smoothly.
Although the shouts of the pursuit team continued to surge around, these men in black could always lead them to escape from the blockade without any danger.
A few hours later, Zhang Lei and his uncle, led by men in black, escaped from the imperial city through a secret passage and arrived at the outer suburbs of Anjin.
"Huh..." After escaping, the two breathed a heavy sigh and kowtowed to the men in black in embarrassment.
"We take money from people, you don't need to thank us."
The leading man in black took out a note from his pocket and said, "When you go back, transfer 50 million to this account!"
"Fifty million?"
Zhang Lei was suddenly shocked, "Ye Fan didn't give you any money?"
"Mr. Ye's family property has been completely confiscated. How to pay for it?"
The leader of the man in black suddenly narrowed his eyes.
