When Jin Ziwan returned to the governor's mansion, he was in a trance. Even the guards at the gate of the governor's mansion could see this kind of trance, but they didn't dare to ask more questions.

When Jin Ziwan walked into the courtyard, Gu Zhaohong was sitting in the gazebo drinking tea and waiting for him to come back. When he saw his figure, he waved to him.

Jin Ziwan paused, but still walked towards him, sat down beside him, and slowly put his head on Gu Zhaohong's chest, like a dejected kitten.

Gu Zhaohong stroked his hair, and asked in a low voice, "What's wrong? The matter? Shouldn't the matter be resolved?"

Jin Ziwan's muffled voice came: "Sheng Xiyun knows."

Gu Zhaohong's expression suddenly turned cold: "What does he know?"

"I know everything." Jin Ziwan was very annoyed, "It's all my fault, why did you tell Sheng Xilin so much, Sheng Xiyun heard it all."

Gu Zhaohong's lips pursed into a line: "So now he knows that you should be the ninth prince, and he is actually the son of the former prince." After a pause, he asked slowly, "What will he do?"

Jin Ziwan didn't speak, and asked after a while: "What you want to ask is whether he will kill me, right?"

Gu Zhaohong was silent.

"He won't."

Jin Ziwan raised his head from his arms, and held Gu Zhaohong's face with both hands. He looked at the well-defined face with sharp nose and deep eyes, and said softly, "With you here, he wouldn't dare to kill me."

Gu Zhaohong's eyes were dark, he pinched his chin, and kissed him fiercely, until Jin Ziwan's breathing became difficult and he gasped for breath before he stopped.

Jin Ziwan leaned his face against Gu Zhaohong's heart, listened to his strong heartbeat, and murmured: "It will be over soon, soon."

Gu Zhaohong embraced him, the expression on his face was cold and stern now, which was very different from the past.

……

There are two sky prisons in the capital, one is at the capital of the capital, and the other is at Jiuwanli.The prisons in the capital city are generally held by petty thieves who provoke trouble? Or criminals who have killed a lot of people. Some of the most serious crimes are locked in a bottomless dungeon that is [-] miles deep.

After Shengxi Lin failed to force the palace, the Imperial Forest Army who had already ambushed entered the Helian Mansion under Kong Qing's command, ignoring the crying and begging for mercy from all the people in the mansion, ransacked the house and arrested people in one go, and threw them directly into the dungeon of [-] li .

Jin Ziwan sorted out his mood, he couldn't do anything before Sheng Xiyun took the initiative to find him, so it's better to come and end the matter.He stepped into Jiuwanli and walked to an inconspicuous rockery in Jiuwanli, from where he could go down to the dungeon of Jiuwanli.It was very dark inside, except for scattered torches on the walls along the way, dimly illuminating the road.

After walking down the stairs, he saw Kongqing in a flat and open place.

Kong Qing was still dressed in black, and his face became paler. He turned around and saw Jin Ziwan, walked up to him, and lowered his head: "Master."

Jin Ziwan hummed, and asked, "Has He Liancheng recruited?"

"Recruited." Kong Qing's voice didn't fluctuate much, "When he was fighting against the barbarians in the northwest, he used to have an affair with foreign enemies. The former prince knew about this and used it to threaten him."

Jin Ziwan paused: "...that's why he lost three cities in a row that year."

Kong Qing nodded.

Jin Ziwan sneered: "He really deserves to die."

If it wasn't for Sheng Xiyun to call him back without hesitation and send Xie Guining there, he might have lost more than just those three cities!

But he didn't come here for Helian City, he asked Kong Qing: "Where's Helian Xiao?"

Kong Qing turned around: "This way."

He led Jin Ziwan to He Lianxiao's cell, Jin Ziwan asked: "Does He Lianxiao know about his father's collusion with the former prince?"

"He doesn't know." Kong Qing said, "But it doesn't matter, the crime of implicating the nine clans, whether he knows it or not, he will die."

Jin Ziwan nodded and didn't say anything, at the moment they came to He Lianxiao's cell, Jin Ziwan motioned for Kong Qing to retreat, Kong Qing turned and left without any doubt.

Jin Ziwan looked at this prison cell. The dungeon was damp and dark, and the smell of mold mixed with blood was disgusting. Occasionally, a few mice would run across the ground, making creepy creaking noises.The people inside were wearing white prison uniforms, which had already been stained with large chunks of blood. After entering the gate of Jiuwanli, it would not be Kongqing's temperament not to walk a few times on the torture equipment.

Jin Ziwan said: "Helian Xiao."

The figure inside moved when he heard the sound, as if he wanted to see who it was, but because it was too dim, he didn't recognize it for a long time, so he forced himself to sit up a little, and only then did he see Jin Ziwan's face.

He Lianxiao opened his eyes wide, and said anxiously: "Governor Jin! Governor Jin! I don't know, these rebellions, forcing the palace... I don't know at all, Governor Jin!"

Jin Ziwan looked at him, bluntly: "I can't save you."

Helian Xiao's voice stopped abruptly, like a goose with its neck stuck.

"Is what your father did to ransack the family and exterminate the family? Whether it's colluding with the barbarians or forcing the palace to rebel," Jin Ziwan put his hands in his hands, expressionless on his face, "No one can save you."

All the strength in He Lianxiao's body seemed to be taken away, he twitched the corners of his lips: "Then what else is Governor Jin doing here?"

Jin Ziwan took out the jade hairpin from his bosom, threw it in along the railing of the cell, and threw it straight into He Lianxiao's bosom: "Here, I'll give you this."

He Lianxiao picked up the jade hairpin, his hands were trembling, and he trembled: "Hua Niang..."

Jin Ziwan raised his chin: "This is what you gave to Hua Niang. The hole flute engraved on it is you, and the peony is her."

He Lianxiao turned his head, his eyes were red: "Why is the hairpin with you? Where is she?"

Jin Ziwan didn't answer, but instead asked him: "You promised to marry her, why didn't you?"

He Lianxiao turned her head away again, stared at the jade hairpin, and said in a daze, "I want to marry her. When someone came to my family saying that my mother was seriously ill, I rushed back. Who would have expected it to be my father?" In order to get me to marry the lie of the maidservant's daughter, my mother will never allow me to carry a flower girl through the door, even if I am a concubine? I quarreled for more than half a year, and I compromised when my mother threatened me with her life."

When Jin Ziwan heard the words, he sneered, and the unpleasant words came out of his mouth one after another: "It's really strange, your Helian family colluded with foreigners, forced confessions to usurp the throne, was unfaithful, and yet you still have a shy face to despise Fengyue Girl, where did you get the face!"

He Lianxiao was scolded by him, but did not refute, but asked stubbornly: "Where is Hua Niang?"

Jin Ziwan said indifferently: "After you left, she met someone else, was redeemed, and married her lover in eight sedan chairs."

He Lianxiao nodded sadly: "That's fine, that's fine."

"Okay?" Jin Ziwan said suddenly, "Did this ending make you feel relieved and make you feel that you didn't feel sorry for her?"

Whenever he thought of Hua Niang, he would hold his breath, and naturally he would not let Helianxiao feel better: "Hua Niang asked me to tell you this sentence, but do you know what the truth is?"

Jin Ziwan stabbed Helianxiao's heart word by word without a single word of swearing: "After you left, there were indeed others who wanted to redeem her and take her away, but she insisted on waiting for you. But her life is not good. , got sick and was kicked out of Liuhualou to live on the street, the madam allowed her to take 20 taels of silver away, but she didn't want it, she just brought this hairpin and a set of cheap wedding dress you bought for her, and begged and sang all the way to Taoluo Mansion , died on a three-foot white silk for the sake of another poor man, beyond recognition."

He Lianxiao's eyes were wide open, as if he didn't realize what Jin Ziwan was saying.

Jin Ziwan said again: "Mr. Helian, do you really not even afford to hire a boy who delivers the news? You really don't even have a letter saying that you are married and have nothing to do with her, and let her go to find another place to live peacefully." Write?"

"What are you waiting for? When you get rid of the shackles of the family at the age of four or fifty and go back to find her, she will always be the young woman with the picture-like face back then, and she can still sing Qin Huaijing for you again?"

Every sentence was like a heavy hammer, hitting He Lianxiao's body to pieces.

"Hua Niang still loves you, so you don't want you to feel sad and guilty for her," Jin Ziwan said in a cold tone, "but I want you to die without worry."

"He Lianxiao, you consider yourself an infatuation, but who are you worthy of? Not to mention Hua Niang, even the daughter of the servant of the Ministry of Rites, you are sorry for her! What a good girl, what did she do to enter your house? Belittled by you so much?"

"And Hua Niang really made the wrong payment, she broke her heart and broke her heart, and she wanted to drink Meng Po soup in the underworld."

"Take back your hairpin, and in the next life, it will be like a cow and a horse to repay your debt in this life."
