The edict prison is not as gloomy and cold as the sky prison in the palace, but it is also a place in Beijing where officials who commit serious crimes are detained.
Ever since he came to this place, Pang Shao hasn't lived a single day in peace.Huo Wujiu's soldiers have all been trained in their skills, and they are best at torturing prisoners of war.
They let Pang Shao endure the pain of bone erosion all day long, but they also hung his consciousness and breath, keeping him awake all day long, unable to pass out, let alone die.
Pang Shao didn't know how many days had passed.
As soon as he entered the dungeon, there was a clear smell of blood rushing towards his face.Huo Wujiu frowned, seemingly dissatisfied, and then pressed Jiang Suizhou's shoulder when he was approaching the cell.
"You wait first." He said.
Jiang Suizhou went in without knowing it, but stopped in his tracks.
Seeing Huo Wujiu strode forward, walked to the cell door and took a look, then he frowned unhappily as if he saw something unclean.
Then, he raised his hand, and several soldiers came forward.
Those soldiers were busy for a while, before Huo Wujiu retreated, he took Jiang Suizhou's hand quite naturally, and led him in.
Jiang Suizhou walked in, turned a corner, and faced Pang Shao's cell.The smell of blood was very clear. Jiang Suizhou looked in and saw Pang Shao in the cell sitting crookedly on the haystack in the corner, with his shoulders down and covered with a whole piece of cloth.
At the door of the cell, there was already a chair, which was empty, and the soldiers lined up behind them.
"This is..." Jiang Suizhou looked at Pang Shao, then looked up at Huo Wujiu, and asked in confusion.
Then Huo Wujiu said calmly: "It's nothing, just sit down."
Needless to say, he was afraid that the executed person would look horrible and dirty Jiang Suizhou's eyes.
He had seen many of them himself, not to mention that he had been locked up in prison for a whole month, knowing how filthy the place was and how horrible the tortured people were.
He had seen it so much that it was as if he hadn't seen it, even while interrogating prisoners while eating.
But who is Jiang Suizhou?That was the purest and most timid White Rabbit in his heart.
Even if Jiang Suizhou wasn't as timid as he thought, he didn't want Jiang Suizhou to see it.
Hearing the words, Jiang Suizhou raised his eyes to look at Huo Wujiu, and then at Pang Shao.
At this time, Pang Shao's gloomy eyes were looking at him quietly, blood was seeping from the cloth on his body, one could tell what Huo Wujiu was covering up.
Jiang Suizhou didn't refute him, just let Huo Wujiu lead him, and sat down on the chair.
"Big man," he said. "Be safe."
Pang Shao laughed, his voice was terribly hoarse.
"Are you satisfied?" he asked.
Jiang Suizhou shook his head slowly.
"It should be this king asking you. Pang Dao, are you satisfied with the matter so far?"
Pang Shao sneered, his voice was rough like a ghost crawling out of hell.
"Being framed by you so far, I'm naturally very satisfied." He said.
Jiang Suizhou smiled lightly and said: "My lord, don't you understand the matter until now? It is not the king who caused you to this point, but yourself."
Pang Shao stared at him firmly.
Jiang Suizhou was not frightened by him at all, and continued calmly: "Is it you who imprisoned Huo Wujiu and sent him to this prince's mansion? You? Pang Da, everything I have done, everything Huo Wujiu has done is thanks to you, everything you have done is just a counterattack to you."
But Pang Shao said: "Smart words. Now that things have come to an end, you still have to say these things. Are you afraid that after I die, I will come to claim your life?"
Huo Wujiu clicked his tongue in dissatisfaction, and took a step forward to open the prison cell, as if he was about to rush in to deal with people.
Jiang Suizhou grabbed him and pulled him back.
He obviously couldn't move Huo Wujiu, Huo Wujiu stopped, but he still retreated obediently.
"You just let him talk nonsense?" Huo Wujiu gritted his teeth.
"A person full of evil can't become a life-threatening ghost." Jiang Suizhou said indifferently. "Now, I'm just someone who killed you for you, and I'm here to claim your life."
He looked at Pang Shao, and continued.
"How many taels of silver are piled up in your treasury, do you know it? You know the silver, but do you know the people you killed?" he asked. "If you don't have one, the king can count for you. Those who disobeyed you in the court, the ministers who blocked your way, and those people who were displaced because of your corruption, starved to death because of your greed. Can you count the refugees in the locust plague?"
Pang Shao sneered.
"Do you still need to count the number of ants that have been crushed to death?"
"So you were arrested and locked up here for so long, no one complained about your grievances, no one rescued you, only the tree fell and the monkeys scattered." Jiang Suizhou said calmly.
"Oh, there might still be some." Jiang Suizhou changed the topic. "The first emperor, Jiang Shunheng, is he not an ant? He is waiting for you to go back to save him until his death, and he will trust you until his death. He is the uncle he can rely on the most."
Pang Shao's gaze finally moved.
Jiang Suizhou looked at him quietly.
Even Jiang Shunheng felt a little pitiful, but Pang Shao was a real bastard.The bastard has no compassion or shame. Only by letting him hear how the building is about to collapse can he truly feel sad.
"Even though I have done so many things to separate the two of you, he still remembers your hypocrisy and trusts you wholeheartedly," Jiang Suizhou said. "Didn't your ostentatious power back then and your countless gold and silver wealth all depend on him being stupid? It's just a pity that you were so suspicious that you thought he was so smart, and you wanted to pull him down from the throne so that this king could take advantage of it. It's not that you doubt him so much, Pang Da, who can pull you down from the position of Da Situ?"
With that said, Jiang Suizhou stood up and said calmly.
"Think carefully before you die, Pang Da. In the whole world, there is no one who is more deceitful than Jiang Shunheng. Wasn't it you who pushed the throne out and put the knife on your neck?"
After speaking, he turned and walked out.
The rest of the people filed out, and everything fell silent.
Pang Shao stared at the void in front of him.
"Idiot." He said in a contemptuous tone.
What he said was naturally scolding Jiang Shunheng.In the past so many years, he has scolded Jiang Shunheng many times in his heart and behind his back, just because this thing is so stupid.
But this time, what appeared before his eyes was Jiang Shunheng's childhood appearance.
A child of seven or eight years old, as fat as a ball, looks a bit stupid, but a child is still somewhat childish and cute.
She was timid, but her eyes were bright when she looked at him, and she sounded a bit useless when she spoke, but she asked him calmly, "Uncle, when is the next time you come to see me?"
Such a child will always be remembered occasionally, and he will be given a piece of candy to eat.
Really stupid.I have been useless all my life, and in my 30s, I am still a fool who doesn't know people well.
They deserve to be taken advantage of.
Pang Shao lowered his eyes and suppressed the faint sourness in his nose.
But at this moment, footsteps sounded.
Pang Shao looked over, but saw Huo Wujiu who had gone and returned.
Huo Wujiu stood still in front of the cell, looking at him coldly.
"Looking good." Huo Wujiu said. "I'm the one who hurt you, and I'm the one who killed you. What can he do, a sick man with no power to restrain himself? It's only me. If he wants to kill you, he will kill you."
Pang Shao frowned, not knowing what he was talking about.
Huo Wujiu looked at him coldly.
"So, even if you have the ability to become a ghost, you can see clearly." He said. "You want to ask for your life, don't ask for it wrong."
After speaking, he turned around and strode away.
It took a moment for Pang Shao to realize what he meant.
It turned out that Huo Wujiu was afraid that he would turn into a ghost to find Jiang Suizhou, so he made a special trip to talk to him?
Pang Shao only thought it was ridiculous.
He Huo Wujiu fought in the battlefield for so many years, committed so many murders, what ghosts and gods do he still believe in?
Really became a lot of stupid.
Pang Shao only thought it was ridiculous, but he smiled, but he couldn't laugh anymore.
He could see Huo Wujiu's cautiousness towards Jiang Suizhou's sick child, and he could see that he was not afraid of ghosts when he said this, but was afraid that ghosts would haunt Jiang Suizhou.
It seems that emotion is the thing that can deceive people's mind the most.
No matter love or family affection, the most illusory thing is the most powerful.
He thought of Jiang Shunheng again.
He remembered that in his desperation at that time, in order to transfer troops, he let Jiang Shunheng know about his relationship with Huo Yuyan.Jiang Shunheng didn't pursue it at all, but after handing him the tiger talisman, he asked him, Uncle, you will protect me no matter what, right?
Of course he won't, presumably Jiang Shunheng, and it may not be true that he can't see it.
It's just because he is still the same stupid kid who never saw his father all year round and only waited for a candy or two from his uncle's sleeve.
-
That day Huo Wujiu left the imperial prison, said he forgot something and went back.But when he came back, he didn't take anything, Jiang Suizhou asked him what he was doing, Huo Wujiu didn't say anything, he looked ashamed.
Jiang Suizhou didn't ask any more questions.
In a few days, Pang Shao died.
He was magnificent in life, but silent when he died.Now Huo Wujiu is in power in Nanjing, and the officials of the Pang party had no time to curry favor, so they will no longer care about the life and death of the old master.
Jiang Suizhou really took a break.
With Qi Min here, most of the affairs can be handled by the officials of the DPRK and China. Jiang Suizhou only needs to make decisions on the affairs sent to the imperial case.Originally, he was only busy for two or three hours a day, but Huo Wujiu still wanted to screen out all the things that came to him before dealing with military affairs. If Huo Wujiu could make up his mind, he would not let Jiang Suizhou meddle.
Jiang Suizhou became more relaxed.
However, he and Huo Wujiu didn't know that since that day when the two of them went to the imperial prison together, there was a rumor that spread wildly in the army.
Everyone in the army said that for some reason, the general raised a little boy in the palace.
Some said that the general was moved because of his pretty face; others said that the general was infected by Prince Jing because of his encounter in Prince Jing's mansion.
Say anything.
This wind blew into the ears of many generals, some of them especially admired Huo Wujiu, they felt resentful, but they couldn't express it.
Until today.
There are ten thousand households in the army, and they have some important military matters to report to General Huo, so they went all the way into the palace and arrived at the imperial study.
But when he entered the imperial study, he saw that the person sitting in front of the imperial case was not the general, but a strange man.
The facial features are exquisite, the tails of the eyes are raised, and there is a small red mole under the eyes. He is clearly a man, but he is too beautiful.
That Wanhu's heart shuddered.
Look at this... Isn't it the little boy in the rumors!
The author has something to say: Wanhu: Disaster!
Huo Wujiu: Are you scolding again? ?
Wanhu:?
Huo Wujiu: I, a good wife!
Wanhu:? ? ? ? ?
