Liang Chen System [Rebirth]

The night was quiet, and the stars blinked silently and shone brightly.There was no one in the quiet street, and a horse galloped past, suddenly cutting through the silence.The horses galloped and stopped suddenly at Dali Temple.Zhang Nan dismounted from his horse and strode into Dali Temple.

The master on duty at night was dozing off, when he heard hurried footsteps, he frowned displeased.Who would come to Dali Temple this late at night, he raised his head in displeasure, and when he saw that it was His Royal Highness the Third Prince, his expression changed drastically and he quickly got up and saluted.

Zhang Nan didn't even look at him, and hurried towards the prison.His face was as cold as ice, and his whole body exuded a biting chill, like a volcano erupting immediately.

Seeing the third prince approaching, the forbidden army hiding in the corner hesitated: "The third prince has come down, what should we do? Do we want to prevent him from going to the prison?"

Another imperial guard looked at the third prince and couldn't help but shuddered and said, "The third prince is here, what does it have to do with us? Your Majesty's order is that no one is allowed to take Mr. Pei away. Mr. Pei is still in prison. "

The imperial guard thought for a while, then looked at the murderous appearance of the third prince, and finally fell silent.

*******

"Boom—" Gongs and drums sounded heavily, and a man yelled loudly: "The sky is dry and things are dry, be careful of candles."

There are five shifts a night, and each shift is divided into three points.The so-called night ban, at three o'clock in the morning, the bell stops, and no one is allowed to go;Now that the gongs and drums are sounding, it is exactly one o'clock, and after two o'clock it will be the time of night ban.

The lights in the dungeon were brightly lit, and there was a hint of coolness in the humid air.Even so, Feng Jing was sweating like rain.He took out the handkerchief, his hands trembling slightly, and kept wiping the sweat off his face.He looked at Pei Ziqi, gritted his teeth and said, "Pei Ziqi, let me ask you again, should I recruit or not?"

Pei Ziqi raised his head and smiled softly.There was not a trace of blood in his face, and his lips were white and shiny.His voice was very soft, so soft that he couldn't hear a word unless he listened carefully: "I still say that, I don't plead guilty to things I haven't done."

Feng Jing clenched his teeth, his nostrils bulged out.He quickly turned around, grabbed the steel needles on the case table, and said, "Fix his fingers and toes for me. I don't think he's stubborn yet!"

Time is running out, he must make a quick decision.It's also strange, the other prisoners have already been tortured for such a toss.But when he arrived at Pei Ziqi's place, he was dying for so long.If it wasn't for Xu Shengao's eyeliner, he would have done nothing but toss Pei Ziqi into a coma, and put him on a bet.

The jailer took the steel needle and said hesitantly, "My lord, this toe has not been pulled out yet. Look at it?"

The thick nostrils were breathing heavily, and Feng Jing said viciously: "Fix it before you finish pulling it out." He paused, and smiled coldly at Pei Ziqi: "Pei Ziqi, have you thought about it? If the needle gets into your fingers, your hands will be useless, and you will never be able to write well with a pen in the future."

Pei Ziqi lowered his head feebly, drooping his heavy eyelids: "If I recruit, what's the use of going to the Underworld to write a good handwriting?"

"Okay." Feng Jing became furious, and angrily said: "Did you hear that? Hurry up and make an appointment..." Before he finished speaking, his fat body flew into the air, and hit the wall with a loud bang, and then He fell hard to the ground.He stared blankly, his eyes were full of fear, a mouthful of blood gushed out of his mouth, and he didn't dare to reach out to wipe it.

He quickly knelt down, his body trembling: "For a humble job, please refer to His Highness the Third Prince. If you don't know His Highness is coming, if you don't meet him from afar, you deserve death."

All the people in the prison knelt on the ground, shaking their heads with their heads hooked.Anyone could see that His Highness the Third Prince was very angry and even wanted to chop off their heads.

Zhang Nan ignored it, and hurried towards Pei Ziqi, and gently untied the rope for fear of hurting his wound.Pei Ziqi tried his best to open his eyelids, his pale lips curled into a slight smile: "You don't look good when you're angry."

Zhang Nan hugged him horizontally and softened his expression: "Wait for me for a while."

Pei Ziqi leaned in his arms and wanted to nod in response, but he couldn't exert any strength.Zhang Nan looked at the jailer kneeling on the ground, and said coldly, "What torture did you use on Mr. Pei?"

A jailer shook his body, and said truthfully: "Whip, pull out fingers..." After speaking, he looked up at Zhang Nan, and dared not say a word again.

"Whose order? Who executed it?"

The executioner turned pale, and quickly knocked his head with a 'bang bang' sound.Pointing at Feng Jing, he said anxiously: "Your Highness, Master Feng ordered me to do this. The little one is just following orders, the little one is innocent!"

Feng Jing stared at the jailer, his greasy face was pale and pale.He crawled towards Zhang Nan in trembling fear, and said in a trembling voice: "Your Highness, Pei Ziqi is an imperial convict, ordered by the Holy One..."

Zhang Nan raised his foot and kicked him away.The obese body hit the wall again, and a mouthful of blood gushed out, staining the blue official robe red.Zhang Nan said lightly: "Whatever punishment they want to use on Mr. Pei, they will double it on them." After speaking, he hugged Pei Ziqi and strode towards the cell.

The jailer got up and promised, and ordered people to put the unconscious Feng Jing and the paralyzed execution guard on the Xing frame...

*******

The heavy eyelids slowly fell, and Pei Ziqi said to the system: "System, I'm so sleepy. Can you help me, I want to talk to Zhang Nan for a while, and it will be fine in a while."

After a short silence, Pei Ziqi slowly opened his eyes.He raised his head to look at Zhang Nan, and said softly: "Okay, put me down. Every cell in Dali Temple is the same, so you don't need to choose."

Zhang Nan lowered his eyes, opened his mouth and walked into the nearest cell without saying anything.He gently put Pei Ziqi on the bed, his amber eyes glowed with water: "I'm sorry, I can't take you away for the time being. Wait for me..."

Pei Ziqi put his hand against his lips, and stopped him from speaking.The fingers without nails were covered with blood, and when they touched the lips, they were stained red with warmth and humidity.Pei Ziqi was stunned for a moment, and quickly withdrew his hand, but Zhang Nan grabbed it.Zhang Nan looked down at his hand, his long eyelashes blocked his pupils, and said softly, "I'll bring the doctor tomorrow, and you'll be fine soon."

Pei Ziqi smiled, a shallow but surprisingly beautiful smile.He caressed Zhang Nan's face and stroked his brow lightly: "Don't frown, don't blame yourself, it's not that you are incompetent, but that life is not satisfactory. I can't avoid it, and you can't avoid it. It has nothing to do with whether we are strong or not. .As long as you live and I live, we have a future. This time, I will hold your hand tightly and never leave you again."

"Qing'er." Zhang Nan said softly, a layer of mist floated in his eyes.

Pei Ziqi smiled softly, took his hand and stroked his stomach: "Zhang Nan, I'm pregnant."

"I know." Zhang Nan looked at the scars all over his body, his fingers trembled slightly, and murmured, "As long as you're fine, it's fine." If the child is gone, there will be another.

Pei Ziqi leaned into his arms and slowly closed his eyes: "I'm sleepy in Zhang Nan, I want to sleep for a while."

Zhang Nan was afraid of touching his wound, so he just stretched out his hand to circle him, and hummed lightly.He looked up at the pavilion window, and his eyes were filled with crystal mist, which was an indelible sadness...

*******

The morning light quietly showed its face, sprinkled on the earth, and dispelled the night.Zhu Mengming got off the carriage, first stretched, and then twisted his neck from side to side.Seeing him wake up, Xu Xingchuan hurriedly stepped forward and said, "Old Mr. Zhu, it's good that you wake up, let's hurry up."

"Hurry up?" Zhu Mengming raised his eyebrows, crossed his arms and said, "What way are you going? I promised your master to accompany him to Beijing to see a doctor. Now that your master is away, why should I go to Beijing?"

Xu Xingchuan glared and gritted his teeth, suppressing his anger and said: "Old Mr. Zhu, you can't keep your promises. The imperial concubine has a congenital gas, and now she is in prison again, you..."

"It's over." Zhu Mengming waved his hand and interrupted him: "Let me tell you the truth, if your master hadn't invited me personally, I wouldn't have come to the capital if I had been killed. Your master also knows this truth, Why don't you understand?"

Xu Xingchuan was taken aback for a moment, then hurriedly stepped forward, and blurted out: "Old Mister Zhu..."

Zhu Mengming turned around and tapped himself on the shoulder: "Chenshi will leave again, and I won't leave for a moment longer." At the end, he added: "There is no discussion, even if it takes my life."

Xu Xingchuan was so angry that his fingers trembled, he gritted his teeth and turned to leave.

When it was Chen time, Xu Xingchuan drove the carriage to the capital in a hurry.When they arrived in the capital, they learned that the imperial concubine was still in the prison, so they took Zhu Mengming to the prison of Dali Temple without stopping.

Zhang Nan hugged Pei Ziqi and stayed up all night, so when Xu Xingchuan saw him, his eyes were red like a wild beast.He softly called His Highness, Zhang Nan quickly pressed his mouth, signaling not to wake Pei Ziqi up.

Xu Xingchuan looked at the sleeping imperial concubine, and hurriedly stopped and stood sideways.Zhang Nan gently put down Pei Ziqi, covered him with a quilt, and made a petition to Zhu Mengming.Zhu Mengming stroked his beard and looked outside the cell with his eyes.Zhang Nan understood immediately and took Xu Xingchuan out of the cell.

The two stood in the empty corridor, and there was no one around.Xu Xingchuan clenched his fists and thumped the wooden fence: "Those bastard grandchildren actually tortured the imperial concubine!"

"Xu Xingchuan."

Xu Xingchuan came back to his senses, and hastily cupped his hands and said: "The humble job is here."

"Let the king of the county and the others rush back to Beimo overnight." Zhang Nan paused, and said in a hoarse voice, "Notify Sai Keba (General Beimo) to send his army southward and press down on the border of Jin."

Xu Xingchuan stared wide-eyed, couldn't believe his ears, he hesitated and said: "Your Highness, what are you?"

"I dare not gamble with Qing'er's life." Zhang Nan closed his eyes, his lips turned pale slightly: "Father is determined not to let Qing'er go, I have no choice."

"But...but..." Xu Xingchuan hurriedly knelt down, "Your Highness, you will be cast aside by the world if you do this, and the reputation of being unfilial and unrighteous will accompany you all your life. You will also bear this reputation for generations to come, and bring foreigners He destroyed his own country, and caused the family to be ruined." He bent down and kowtowed: "Your Highness, please think again. No matter how uncomfortable your majesty is, he is also your father. Once the state of Jin is destroyed, your majesty will be the king of subjugation. You are tantamount to forcing him to death."

"I know, I know what you said." Zhang Nan slowly opened his eyes, and the amber eyes were dyed red: "There are imperial troops, imperial forest troops, and garrison camps in the capital, and there are government troops in each state capital. There are also border guards. How sure are you that our people in the capital can take Qing'er away from Jin to Beimo without hurting him at all?"

Xu Xingchuan was stunned, and suddenly raised his head.The Forbidden Army is the Luo Emperor's personal soldiers, the Imperial Forest Army is the army that defends the imperial city, and the garrison battalion is the army that protects the capital.If the three armies were dispatched together, they would not be able to guarantee that they would leave the capital safely with the imperial concubine just by virtue of the manpower they had left in the capital.Even if they were lucky enough to leave the capital, they might not be able to leave Jin.State soldiers, border troops...

Most of their people are in Beimo. Instead of letting them sneak to the capital, it is better to go all the way south.Luo Di has been ignoring the government for five years, and he will still need Pei Ziqi in case of major events.The second prince was not familiar with military affairs, and the third prince ignored it, so Emperor Luo had no choice but to let Pei Ziqi pick it up.

Xu Xingchuan fell on the ground, sobbing softly: "Your Highness..."

"I just want to stay with Qing'er for the rest of my life, it's just that simple." Zhang Nan smiled, with an indescribably bitter smile: "Let Sai Keba act first. If the father insists on going his own way, let him go all the way." Go south." He smiled wryly, and murmured: "The war has hurt the world, but who can pity me? Now that Qing'er is gone, this world will become hell."

Xu Xingchuan trembled, and raised his head to look at him, only to see a stunning face filled with sadness, and his empty eyes seemed to have lost his soul.He opened his mouth to say something, but found that he couldn't say anything, so he lowered his head again.

Zhang Nan moved very slowly, dragging his body and turning around slowly.He walked back slowly, walking very slowly, like an old man, dull and slow.The shadows on the ground stretched long, dark and oppressive, walking forward alone...
