When he arrived at the legendary small dungeon with Yuchi Yuanhe, Qiu Ye, and a group of guards from the palace, he saw two corpses at the door, both dressed in the uniform of the guards of the general's mansion, and wearing belt tags .

Qiu Ye stepped forward to touch it, and said, "I've been dead for more than two hours."

Bai Yu nodded, pushed the door open and went in.

A strong bloody smell rushed over.The dungeon had no windows, and it was so dark that it was almost impossible to see clearly.Qiu Ye took out the fire folder and lit it, and they could barely see what was going on inside with the faint light of the fire.

A man was completely naked, chained to an iron ring nailed to the wall, kneeling on the ground with his head bowed.This is not the scariest thing, the scariest thing is his locked position.Two iron rings passed through his collarbone, and the blood flowing from both collarbones almost stained his whole body red.He seemed to have fallen into a coma, and the noise of so many people coming in didn't make him have the slightest reaction.

Bai Yu froze in place, and even dared not approach him for a moment.

"Yes, is it him?"

Without saying a word, Yuchi Yuanhe rushed over, took off his coat and wrapped it around the man, carefully avoiding his collarbone.He caressed Ye Zhiyan's face, his hands shaking violently.

"How could this be, how could it be..." He was panicked and helpless, his voice was hoarse, tears streaming down his face, he choked up and said to Bai Yu, "Your Highness, it's Zhiyan, it's him!"

He cried like a poor child, wanting to hold Ye Zhiyan in his arms, but afraid of touching his wound.After Qiu Ye was shocked, he quickly realized that he stepped forward to check the two iron rings that passed through Ye Zhiyan's collarbone.

"I can't help but break it hard." He asked Bai Yu with his eyes, and after getting permission, he snapped off the iron ring neatly. Ye Zhiyan screamed out in pain in a coma.

"Easy..." Yuchi Yuanhe wiped away tears and said.

Qiu Ye said: "Don't worry, the collarbone is not broken, it's just a flesh injury, it won't cause the root cause of the disease."

The other injuries on Ye Zhiyan's body were trivial compared to this one. Yuchi Yuanhe wrapped him up and hugged him, looking at Baiyu with red eyes.

Bai Yu moved his lips, and said for a while, "Maybe it wasn't Yan Xunjian's dungeon."

Neither Qiu Ye nor Yuchi Yuanhe spoke.

Bai Yu turned around and went out, leaned over and carefully looked at the two corpses at the door, they seemed to be familiar, as he had seen them in the general's mansion before.The badges on them are also real.

"Maybe..." Bai Yu murmured in a low voice, but couldn't say anything.

Just as they were about to leave, another man came on a horse, and when he saw Bai Yu, he was stunned, then turned around and ran away.

"Stop!" Bai Yu snapped, "Do you think you can hide forever?"

Chunyujing reined in his horse and came back.

"What are you doing here?" Bai Yu's face was gloomy.

Chunyujing got off the horse, looked behind them for a moment, and asked, "What is Your Highness doing here again?"

Bai Yu had been patient with Chunyu Jing for many years, and now he got angry and roared, "When is it your turn to question me?! Kneel down!"

It was the first time Chunyu Jing saw Bai Yu getting so angry, he couldn't help but kneel down.He knelt on the ground obediently and lowered his head, and said, "Your Highness, forgive me."

"Did I have such a good temper in the past, that made you disregard me even more! Chunyujing, let me warn you, Yan Xun has to be courteous in front of me, don't be too presumptuous!" Bai Yu pointed at him and yelled Wan Fang said, "Say! What are you doing here?!"

Chunyujing hesitated for a while, and said in a low voice: "The last general will come to see it every day at this time..."

"Is this dungeon built by Yan Xun?"

"……Yes."

Bai Yu's breath stagnated, and he asked again: "He also ordered the people in here to be locked up and tortured?"

Chun Yujing looked up at him, nodded, "Yes."

Chun Yujing would not lie or betray Yan Xun, if he said yes, then he really did.But Bai Yu still couldn't believe it, and asked him with the last glimmer of hope, "Did Yan Xun himself tell you this?"

Chunyujing still said the same word, "Yes."

Bai Yu felt a little dizzy.He closed his eyes and tried to maintain calm, "Do you know who is locked here?"

Chunyu Jing shook her head.

"Let's go." Bai Yu put down these three words and hurried back to the carriage.

Bai Yu brought Ye Zhiyan back to the palace, and found a doctor to heal him.He was still in a coma, and the human skin mask on his face had come loose, and Bai Yu asked someone to take it off.

Yuchi Yuanhe was watching by the side, his face was blank all the time, as if he hadn't recovered.Bai Yu patted him on the shoulder and comforted him: "It's nothing, it's just a flesh wound, it will be healed soon."

Yuchi Yuanhe forced the corner of his mouth to smile.

Bai Yu then changed the subject, "Does this human skin mask have to be worn all the time?"

Only then did Yuchi Yuanhe speak, his voice hoarse, "Yes. If he feels something wrong with his face, or sees a mirror, he will go crazy."

"That's easy too. I'll send someone to an outside troupe to find a master who is proficient in this way. Just make more of the same ones and wear them."

Except for the collarbone, Ye Zhiyan's injuries were actually not too serious. Those whippings and burns on his body were minor things. He woke up that night and wanted to touch his face as soon as he woke up, but the severe pain in his collarbone prevented him from moving.

He was a little panicked, and Yuchi Yuanhe who was next to him quickly came over and sat down beside his bed, "It's okay, it's okay. Don't be afraid, I'm here."

Seeing that he immediately became quiet, Ye Zhiyan showed a cute smile, "Brother, you are back."

"Yes, I'm back." Yuchi Yuanhe held his hand and said softly, "You were captured by the bad guys and suffered some injuries, but it doesn't matter, I will accompany you to recuperate."

Ye Zhiyan nodded, looked at the layout of the room, and asked doubtfully, "Brother, have we moved?"

Yuchi Yuanhe didn't answer him, but said vaguely: "Do you like this place?"

"I like it. It's so beautiful here, more beautiful than the palace." Ye Zhiyan's eyes were bent into two crescents.

Yuchi Yuanhe was silent for a while, then stood up suddenly and walked to the table with his back facing him, took the opportunity to wipe away the tears from the corners of his eyes, and said in a calm voice, "I'll pour you some water."

They talked a few more words, and Bai Yu suddenly opened the door and came in.Ye Zhiyan was stunned when he saw him, his eyes widened, and his breathing became short of breath, "Who are you? Why do you look like me?!"

Yuchi Yuanhe looked at Bai Yu in a panic, only to see Bai Yu smiled softly, walked to Ye Zhiyan's bed and said to him, "I am your twin brother, King Mi, why don't you know me?"

Ye Zhiyan's tense nerves suddenly relaxed, blinked his eyes twice and laughed, "Oh, yes, yes, you are King Mi, and I am King Liang."

Bai Yu nodded, and handed the medicine bowl in his hand to Yuchi Yuanhe, "Feed him the medicine."

Because Ye Zhiyan couldn't say much here, Yuchi Yuanhe just gave Bai Yu a grateful look.

After feeding Ye Zhiyan to sleep with the medicine, Yuchi Yuanhe immediately went to Baiyu's place, and knelt down with a plop, "Thank you, Your Highness, for your kindness!"

"What are you doing, get up quickly." Bai Yu pulled him up and said, "It's not a big deal, the most important thing is that you take good care of Zhiyan. I have already told the servants in the mansion, they If you will call him His Highness, you can tell him that this is the palace of the two of us. It will not be too late to take him over after your mansion is repaired."

Yuchi Yuanhe's eyes were red again, and he couldn't utter a single word.

"As for Yan Xun's side... I will take care of it, you don't have to worry about it."

On Yan Xun's side, Chun Yujing had no choice but to tell him the matter, "The general didn't see what the person Yuchi Yuanhe was holding looked like, but he definitely wasn't the person we locked up there, that person wasn't so white."

Yan Xun leaned against the bedside for a moment, then suddenly laughed, "It's Ye Zhiyan."

"...Ah?" Chunyujing was dumbfounded, "Isn't he dead?"

"What a Yuchi Yuanhe." Yan Xun didn't explain to him, the smile on his mouth faded, "He knew you would go to the dungeon at that time every day, so he calculated the time to bring Baiyu there."

Chunyujing thought hard for a long time, then took a sharp breath, "King Liang thought that the general tortured Ye Zhiyan!!"

Yan Xun closed his eyes and did not speak.

"This is a big misunderstanding...how about explaining it to King Liang?"

"No need. Don't you understand? With him now, Yuchi Yuanhe is much more likable than me." Yan Xun's body was still weak, and he was sleepy as soon as it got dark. He braced himself and said in a low voice. , "If I hadn't been like this and had no time for him, I would definitely not let him take the opportunity. That person should have been replaced by Yuchi Yuanhe in advance. This is troublesome. If the person falls into his hands, he is probably dead."

Chun Yujing asked anxiously: "Then what should we do? Is this matter so dead without evidence? It has been so many years, we finally found one who is still alive, and we haven't asked anything yet..."

Yan Xun shook his head wearily, he couldn't stand it anymore, he lay down slowly and said: "Let's talk about it tomorrow, let me think about it."

"Yes." Chunyu Jing quietly resigned.

The trauma on Ye Zhiyan's body was a trivial matter, but the strange thing is that he has been unconscious since he was rescued, half dreaming and half awake all day long.The doctor finally came to the conclusion, "Your Highness, this person is unconscious because of poisoning."

Bai Yu hurriedly asked, "What is the poison? How to get rid of it?"

The doctor said: "I am old and incompetent, I can't diagnose what kind of poison it is, and I don't know how to treat it."

"Is there nothing you can do?"

The doctor was so frightened that he knelt on the ground, "Forgive me, Your Highness. I may be able to find a way to stabilize his condition, but I really can't cure him."

Hearing this, Bai Yu's eyes flashed a faint dark color, and he didn't speak for a long time.When the doctor looked up tremblingly, he still had that calm face.

Bai Yu said, "Just do your best, and I'll figure out the rest."

Bai Yu ordered people to post a notice, looking for good doctors in Shangjing and nearby states and counties, and promised a big reward.Three days passed, and still no doctor came.

Ye Zhiyan's illness became more and more serious.At first, he just had a headache and fever, and then he developed symptoms of cough and asthma. He coughed all day long, his heart and lungs trembled, his face flushed, and finally he coughed up blood.When he was in a coma every day, he would occasionally wake up for a while, yelling about the pain, or asking for water, and he would spit out a lot of what he drank.

Bai Yu came out from inside after feeding the medicine, and asked Qiu Ye, "Is there still no doctor?"

Qiu Ye shook his head helplessly.

"It's a pity that my knowledge of medicine is only superficial. I can treat ordinary ailments and pains, but I can't do anything when I encounter this situation." Bai Yu thought for a long time, and said, "I can't wait any longer. You should lead people in Shangjing and nearby states immediately." In each medical center and pharmacy in the county, ask the doctors there one by one. As long as there is a little way to find them all, try it anyway, in case it is cured."

Qiu Ye hesitated for a moment, and said, "Your Highness, if Mr. Ye was really ordered by the General to be imprisoned there for torture, would he have an antidote?"

Bai Yu shook his head and said, "Unless it is absolutely necessary, I don't want to bother him at this time. Wait for another two days. If there is still no doctor who can cure him after two days, I will go to him again."
