In ancient times, the buildings of princes' families were arranged to face north and south, and the palace was naturally built according to this rule. But there is a very high mountain to the north, and the entire palace is backed by this mountain. When viewed from a distance, it is very practical.
However, few people know that the heart of this northern mountain was dug out like the Xutian Cave, but instead of being built as a fortification, it was made into a mountain prison.
This mountain prison is ten miles deep. The mountain is carved into rock and solid stone is cut into walls. There are more than 200 large and small cells in total. There are no windows. The doorposts of each cell have barbs. The ground is covered with dirty and cold water.
There will always be death row prisoners wailing in misery and despair, just like purgatory.
This is a place where death row prisoners are held. Depending on the degree of the crime they committed, the method of execution will be different, and the severity of the crime will determine whether the prisoner is placed inside or outside. The layout of the entire prison is intricate, let alone running or exiting.
If you don't have someone to guide you from one room to another, you will get lost.
At this time, the four envoys from Qianzhou were locked up here, each in a small cell, next to each other, but their hands and feet were locked with iron chains. If they wanted to get together near the cell, no matter what
It can't be done no matter what.
The smell of decay spread arrogantly, spreading into the thin air, and bit by bit, silently penetrated into people's skin.
Feng Kun sat on the ground with his back against the stone wall. The dark water soaked his shoes and socks. The moisture soaked into his body, causing a dull pain in his legs.
Suddenly, the strong wind whipped up the roaring thunder and beat it hard against the thick stone wall, making the ground shake with a rumble.
There was still a bloody cut on Qianzhou Emperor Fengde's arm. The blood kept pouring out. No one gave him any medicine to bandage it. He just let the wound become red, swollen and inflamed in such a harsh living environment. He even
One can imagine that the wound will rot in a short time, and then spread to the entire arm, until he himself dies.
He gritted his teeth and turned to look at Feng Kun in the cell next door. As soon as he saw this short son, he became even more angry, "You have to come even if you are not allowed to come. You will come as soon as you come. You don't know the depth of the robbery."
Are you crazy to kill the Lord of Jian County?"
"Hmph!" Feng Kun snorted coldly, "I wouldn't come to Dashun if I was afraid of death. Now that I'm here, I have to be prepared to work hard. Is it possible that we keep waiting stupidly? You always talk about opportunities, but come to Kyoto
It's been a month, and I haven't seen you have any plans. Father, opportunities can't fall from the sky for no reason. We have to find them ourselves! If the Ninth Prince hadn't held a long whip in his hand this time,
The old emperor of Dashun has died in my hands!"
"Bullshit!" Feng De was so angry that he really wanted to strangle his short son to death. "What's the use of saying it later if it wasn't for this or that? Failure is failure. We've all confessed here this time."
"If you tell me, tell me." Feng Kun has no fear of death at all. He has been a dwarf for half his life, which is enough for him. It's a pity that he can't help him. "Qianzhou has been oppressed by Dashun for so many years, and every year
Everyone wants to send the best things, and Guanghan Sijiaer also likes it, but even if the emperor dotes on her so much, he dare not leave some for her. Not only this, the three northern provinces are even more of a shame to Qianzhou. Doesn't father
Don’t you want to see the three northern provinces return to Qianzhou in your lifetime?”
His words also aroused the emotions of Xing Haisheng and Chang Da, and the two people also said: "Yes, instead of living in vain, it is better to fight to the death."
"I don't believe Qian Zhou can't defeat Dashun with his current strength. Didn't our sharpshooter seriously injure the Ninth Prince back then!"
Feng De was the oldest and the sane one among them. Listening to the three people talking to each other, he kept shaking his head: "Crazy, you are all crazy! Now the four of us are on death row.
Kang Yi and Ru Jia outside are also in doom. Kun'er, Kun'er, you love Ru Jia so much, but in the end you hurt her."
Feng Kun gritted his teeth, and finally a hint of unbearability appeared on his face. He had never had children in his life, so he treated Ru Jia as his biological daughter. Now that something happened, Ru Jia would not be able to live well. "I hope she can escape from the palace.
Go." Feng Kun comforted himself, "I went to see her a few days ago. The injuries on her body are almost healed and there is no problem with her movements. Jia'er is a smart child. I told her that if something happens to us,
Tell her to run away immediately. There are four of our shops in Jingli. No matter which one she goes to, the people there will protect her back to Qianzhou with all their lives. What's more..." He sneered, "We in Jingli
If the secret line is difficult, it just so happens that we can cooperate with us inside and outside. The power of Prince Xuan Tianye of that day is present in the palace, and they have been preparing for it. As long as Qian Yiyi moves outside, his men will definitely take the opportunity to make a move."
"So what if he becomes powerful?" Feng De said helplessly: "It's not like we haven't seen the third prince before. He is so injured that he can't leave his bed. Even if he becomes powerful, can he still be the emperor?"
"Why do you want him to be the emperor?" Feng Kun sneered, "With his help, it is time for me, Qian Zhou, to take charge of such a large area of the Central Plains as Dashun."
Feng De shook his head when he heard it, and muttered the same sentence: "Crazy, you are all crazy."
While he was talking, there was another sound in the mountain prison, like the mountain door opening, and then someone came in, pushing and shoving.
The four of them raised their heads together, and not long after, they saw the soldiers guarding the prison walking in, escorting a man who was handcuffed and legcuffed like them.
The mountain prison was very dark, with only a dim candle burning slightly every ten steps, but Qianzhou people still recognized the new prisoners - Kang Yi.
Uncle Feng De subconsciously wanted to rush towards the door, but as soon as he moved, the iron chains binding his hands and feet tightened. He could only run forward two steps at most, and then he was pulled back by the inertia and fell to the ground.
.
Kang Yi heard the noise and turned to look at him. Her mood fluctuated slightly, but she calmed down immediately.
She was imprisoned next door to Feng Kun, and her hands and feet were also tied with iron chains. When the prison guards closed the cell door and left, they said: "Next, the only one left is Princess Rujia."
Kang Yi's nerves trembled, and a look of sadness finally appeared on his face.
"Zhaojun." Feng Kun called her.
Kang Yi turned her head, with a look of disappointment on her face. She said to Feng Kun: "You are too impulsive and have wasted all my efforts. Now I only hope that Ru Jia can escape this disaster. As long as she can escape back to Qian
Zhou, there is still hope of living."
No one would have thought that the dignified Princess Rujia of Qianzhou had escaped by hiding in a garbage truck in the palace. When she crawled out of the smelly garbage, a heavy rain poured down on her instantly, which made her very happy.
She simply used the rain to wash herself clean, and while doing so, she ran away. The direction of her escape turned out to be Feng Mansion.
She didn't know what was going on with Kang Yi. Although she knew in her heart that it would be impossible to escape this disaster, she still held on to a glimmer of hope. She hoped that Dashun would consider the face of the prime minister and give Kang Yi a way to survive. As long as her mother lives.
, she is not afraid of anything.
Ru Jia ran to Feng Mansion in the thunderstorm, and had to evade the arresting officers and soldiers from time to time along the way. She lost count of how many times she fell and fell. After drinking, she would open her mouth and take a few sips of rainwater, and then she would go there with all her strength.
Feng Mansion ran.
Finally, Feng Mansion was in sight, but she found that many officers and soldiers were surrounding the door of the mansion. She hid in the dark and took a peek. She saw Jing Zhao Yin Xu Jingyuan entering Feng Mansion to ransack the house, and she also heard the old lady saying that she wanted to ask the government to cancel the order.
The marriage certificate means that Kang Yi will be divorced from home.
She was dumbfounded. The Feng family could be so heartless. It seemed that her mother had been taken away. Ru Jia thought, for such an important matter, she would definitely be caught in the palace, right?
Suddenly she felt a little regretful, why did she run away? If she hadn't run away, would she be able to be with her mother now? Although she was unruly, she had never done anything big by herself, and at this moment, she
Suddenly she felt like she was the only one in the world, helpless, everyone was her enemy, and everyone was looking forward to her death. She had to hide in order to save her life.
But how long will it be hidden?
She took one last look at Feng Mansion, gritted her teeth, and walked down the big tree.
The clothes on his body were already in disrepair. He had been wearing thin clothes in the summer, and now his clothes were barely covering his body. But fortunately there was such a heavy rain. In addition to the officers and soldiers of the Qianzhou Yu Party, there were also local gangsters looking for him on the street.
She had gone to take shelter from the rain, so no one could pay attention to her.
Ru Jia forced herself to calm down and carefully recalled an address that Feng Kun had whispered to her when she met him a few times before. That place was in Dashun Kyoto. On the surface, it was a pastry shop, but in fact it was Qianzhou.
Feng Kun said that the stronghold had been infiltrated in the capital for many years and had never had any trouble. He went there when his life was at stake, and the people inside naturally recognized her as the princess.
Rujia gritted her teeth, estimated the direction, and started running towards the shop again.
While Ru Jia was running wild outside like a wild man, the Feng family finally brought Feng Jinyuan back.
When everyone in the mansion saw him, it was like seeing their backbone. Jin Zhen couldn't control it and immediately threw herself on him and burst into tears. While crying, she said, "Master, I scared this slave to death."
Feng Jinyuan was agitated and had no intention of coaxing her. He pushed her aside, then quickly stepped forward to the old lady and said, "Mother."
The old lady nodded and said nothing else. She just pointed at the Cheng sisters and said: "From today on, Junman is the mistress of my Feng family and your first wife. Junmei is your equal wife, and her status is equal to that of Jun."
Man Jinyuan, do you have any objections to my arrangement?"
How could Feng Jinyuan have any objections? This was something he had thought about all night, and he immediately nodded: "My mother is wise, this move is in line with my son's wishes." Just like four years ago, the mother and son worked together.
He expressed his attitude to the royal family and the entire Dashun by raising another wife.
Besides, Ru Jia, who ran towards the stronghold, almost used her last strength to finally reach the door of the shop. She remembered that Feng Kun said that if something happened to the shop, the people inside would remove the red cloth that had been hanging outside the shop door.
The signboard was taken off, and she gingerly glanced at the bamboo pole on the side. The red cloth was still there, and she finally breathed a sigh of relief.
She was about to raise her hand to smash the door. As soon as she raised her hand, before her fist could hit the door panel, the door of the shop was suddenly pulled open from the inside. Ru Jia never expected that what she saw was Feng.
