Chapter 234: Conditions for Redemption

Lanzhou Prison is an important place on the northwest road, not to mention that important prisoners of war such as Xiao Xuan and Eunuch Xie have been detained recently. Magistrate Wen specially sent a team of soldiers to guard them at all times to prevent any accidents. There were many wars between Song and Xia.

The next time, the battle of Jinchengguan aroused the anger of the Song army, so these soldiers were all energetic and carried out the orders carefully.

A carriage was speeding up, and the defenders on duty saw it from a long distance away. Just when the leader, Dutong, was about to give the order to stop, he realized that sitting in the carriage was their hero Xu Zizhen.

They all knew Xu Zizhen, and when they were about to step forward to greet him, they found that Xu Zizhen's expression was not right, and he was gnashing his teeth with murderous intent. He immediately swallowed the polite words that were about to come out of his mouth.

Before the carriage stopped, Xu Zizhen jumped out: "Where is the Xixia man named Xiao? Take me there."

Everyone was stunned for a moment: "Mr. Xu... what are you going to do?"

"What to do? I'm going to kill him!" Xu Zizhen was too lazy to talk nonsense, threw the riding whip to Qian Tongzhi, and strode inside.

Nadu Tong was shocked. He knew the importance of these two Xixia prisoners of war, so he would really take Xu Zizhen to kill him. However, after a moment of hesitation, Xu Zizhen had already stepped into the door. No one among the soldiers beside him dared to stop him.

Tong hurriedly followed him and winked at his men.

The Lanzhou Prison covers an extremely large area and is intricately constructed. Xu Zizhen couldn't figure out the direction as soon as he got in. As soon as Na Dutong came in, he grabbed him and shouted: "I don't want to be angry with my brother, take me there!"

"

Na Tong couldn't struggle, so he smiled bitterly and said: "Master Xu, don't worry, I will just take you there."

Nowadays, the heroic deeds of Xu Zizhen and the Shenji Battalion are being spread all over Lanzhou. Nadutong did not feel dissatisfied even after being ordered by him. He only straightened his clothes slightly and led him quickly towards the depths of the prison.

After walking a few steps, Qian Tongzhi came in and followed behind without making a sound.

The cell was dark, damp, and dirty. There were oil lamps embedded in the walls at intervals. The big lights flickered on and off, which dazzled Xu Zizhen. He walked quickly, but after all, the place was too big.

, we haven’t arrived yet after walking for a long time, but the fire that Xu Zizhen was holding in his heart gradually cooled down.

Xiao Xuan's status was not high and he was of little use. Killing him would only relieve his anger temporarily, but it would have a great impact on the overall situation. Xu Zizhen was impulsive but not an idiot. Now that he calmed down, he quickly figured out the key to this.

"Mr. Xu, we're here." Nadu Tong stopped in front of a cell at the end of the corridor. There was almost no sunlight here. There was a window in the cell that was smaller than a dog hole and could only be used for ventilation.

A figure could be seen crouching in the corner behind the thick fence. His clothes were in tatters and full of stench. His hair was scattered around his face. He didn't know whether he was dead or not.

Xu Zizhen took a look: "Is this Xiao Xuan?"

Du Tong said: "Exactly."

During the conversation between the two, the man was awakened. He raised his head and looked over blankly. His hair fell down and his face was revealed. He could vaguely see that it was the arrogant and domineering Xiao Xuan outside Xingzi Castle. When he saw Xu Zizhen outside the door, he immediately

He rolled over and crawled over, shouting with a cry: "General Xu, General Xu, please let me go. I will miss your great kindness in this life, please!"

Xu Zizhen ignored him and waved to the two jailers in the distance: "Bring this boy out for me and help me find a quiet place outside."

"Yes!" The jailer didn't dare to disobey the order, so he immediately opened the door and escorted Xiao Xuan out. Xiao Xuan was stunned for a moment, and then he struggled desperately, with tears and snot flying everywhere, and howled like a slaughtered pig.

He was specially arranged by Xu Zizhen to be locked up at the end of the death row. He lived next to those ferocious desperadoes every day, ate food inferior to pig food, and slept on the dirty and cold mud floor. This was nothing like what he had experienced before.

That kind of life with fine clothes and fine food is completely different from heaven and earth.

Not counting the environment, what made him collapse the most was that the jailers here would take people out every now and then. Some came back with only half a breath left, covered in blood and dying, and some simply never came back. Needless to say, they were definitely dead.

When Xu Zizhen came in, his eyes were cold and murderous. Xiao Xuan couldn't guess his intentions. He hugged the fence tightly with his hands and feet and cried: "Don't kill me, don't kill me. General Xu, please let me go."

I don’t want to die yet!”

He burst out with astonishing strength at the critical moment of life and death. The two jailers were unable to drag him for a while. Now they were annoyed and lost face in front of the God of War. How could that be a big deal? One of the jailers couldn't help but scream.

He kicked him up and cursed: "Fuck you, why don't you die if you don't want to? Do you think I am the Jade Emperor?"

Qian Tongzhi had been silent all this time, but now he couldn't help but whisper: "Xiao Xu, you don't really want to kill him, do you? Just scare him, it's not worth it to kill him, so why not keep it in exchange for some money?"

."

Xu Zizhen was already making plans, but when he heard this, his heart moved, and he raised his hand to stop the jailer from kicking him: "Throw him in first, and I'll have a few words with him."

Nadu Tongjian, who led the way in, was relieved that he would not kill for the time being. Seeing that Xu Zizhen was about to talk to Xiao Xuan about something private, he quickly moved away with the two jailers.

Xu Zizhen dove in, stood in front of Xiao Xuan, and said coldly and condescendingly: "Want to live? OK, give me a reason not to kill you."

Seeing that there was hope, Xiao Xuan hurriedly said: "I...I can give you money, a lot of money!"

Xu Zizhen sneered: "Do you think I'm very poor? Money doesn't work in front of me, so let's find another one."

Xiao Xuan hurriedly said: "Then I will give you thirty...fifty Xixia beauties, okay?"

Xu Zizhen spat in his face: "Do you think I have never seen a woman in my last life?"

Xiao Xuan did not dare to wipe his face, and said: "Then I will ask my uncle to grant you an official position..." At this point, he also realized that something was wrong and stopped. Xu Zizhen did not want money or women, and granting him an official position was even more important.

It was nonsense. Xiao Xuan was in trouble. He scratched his head and couldn't think of anything to redeem his life.

Xu Zizhen suddenly squatted down: "I don't have to kill you, but you have to agree to one condition."

Xiao Xuan was already so anxious that he was about to cry again. When he heard this, he immediately agreed in a hurry: "I promise, I promise, General Xu, please tell me!"

Xu Zizhen said unhurriedly: "I want to know everything about the Xiao family. Tell me everything you know. Don't hide it or lie to me."

Xiao Xuan was startled, his face turned green and white. He hesitated for a long time before finally making a decision, nodded and said: "Okay!"



This secret conversation did not last long. Xiao Xuan poured out everything he knew like a bamboo tube. It was only half an hour. Xu Zizhen already knew the current situation of the Xiao family, such as which military department was in charge of the Xiao family.

Yes, are there any dignitaries in the court who belong to the Xiao family, and who else are secretly close to the Xiao family.

After the negotiation with the Xixia people is over, Xu Zizhen will rush to Xingqing to help Li Luoyan completely solve the Xiao family and Sanjuetang. Since the Xiao family tree is to be uprooted, it is natural to start with its foundation. Any potential threats must be removed.

Cut it off beforehand.
