I really don't want to be a rebel [infrastructure]

Luo Shixing sat in the rickety carriage and everyone was dumbfounded. After a while, he lifted the curtain and poked his head out and asked, "Father, can you come to Chang'an on August [-]th?" ? If you don’t come, I will drag my brother over.”

After hearing this, King Luo Bin was slightly taken aback, thought for a while and said with a smile: "Okay, on August [-]th, I will look for you for my father."

Luo Shixing was relieved after hearing this, and even gave himself a thumbs up.

His reaction was really quick, August [-]th was not far from September, if King Luo Bin really went to Chang'an by that time, he would find a way to rob him halfway.

Anyway, King Luo Bin cannot be allowed to hang out with Li Jingye, nor can he be allowed to go to Chang'an.

Then the next point is... is his brother his own?

Oh, what he meant was, is his elder brother the elder brother of the same father, or a cousin or something like that.

As for whether they are the same mother, it seems that there is no way to ask so much these days.

Luo Shixing took great pains to find out some from the mouths of his colleagues. Fortunately, he was young, so it wouldn't be surprising for him to lie that he didn't remember much about the past.

So he learned that this was his concubine brother named Luo Shizhi.

Luo Shixing was not surprised after hearing this, but he was a little surprised that Luo Shizhi was ten years older than him, and the 19-year-old Luo Shizhi found an errand in Chang'an, Chang'an County Code History.

In layman's terms, this brother became a civil servant in Chang'an by himself, and he seemed to be doing well. Although Dian Shi was considered a low-level official position with no rank, it was Chang'an County, and Chi County was under the jurisdiction of Jingzhao Prefecture.

In the entire Tang Dynasty, only two counties in the capital, Wannian and Chang'an, were called Chi County, and the other 21 counties around them were called Ji County.

Even being a small official in this kind of place is easier to get ahead than in other places.

From this point of view, his concubine brother seems to be quite capable.

During the next journey, Luo Shixing learned other information about Luo Shizhi. For example, everyone said that Luo Shizhi was gentle, polite, and generous.

Then it can be judged that this person should be a gentle and good-tempered person, which made Luo Shixing heave a sigh of relief.

He is now a little worried about how to get along with his uncle who is ten years older than him. You must know that Luo Shizhi is like a stranger to him.

It was only later that Luo Shixing realized that he was thinking too much, and he never saw Luo Shizhi at all.

On the day he arrived at the posthouse in Lantian County, he heard a very rough kick on the door as soon as he fell asleep. When he jumped up from the bed in shock, he saw a few soldiers in leather armor and wearing a knife on their waists. , holding his collar and asked, "Luo Shixing?"

"Huh?" Luo Shixing was a little confused, what happened?His father's political enemies came to clean him up?

However, it's not that he looks down on his father, the problem is that his father's level has not yet reached the point where he would have political enemies, right?

Luo Shixing, who was sleeping drowsily, couldn't react, but the soldier nodded and said, "It's him, take him away!"

"Wait...wait a minute, can you tell me what happened next?"

Luo Shixing didn't react anymore, and when he looked at the battle, he knew that it would not be easy. The other party was so vicious, so he didn't dare to follow them casually.

It's just that the other party didn't seem to be polite enough to ask him to leave, and the soldier directly picked him up by the collar and brought him out.

Luo Shixing: ...

This height is simply a pain in his heart!

After being taken out of the post house, Luo Shixing was thrown into a prison van.

At this time, he already had a bad premonition in his heart, and after he arrived at the prison in Lantian County, this premonition came true, because the stern-faced Lantian county magistrate saw him and said: "This is the son of the traitor King Luo Bin." ?”

The soldier bowed his hands and saluted: "Exactly."

The magistrate of Lantian County took a look at Luo Shixing and nodded, "It's exactly as written in the edict. It's a pity that he looks so talented."

Holding the wooden pole of the prison cart, Luo Shixing poked his small face out and asked, "What... what kind of traitor?"

The magistrate of Lantian County gave him a very regretful look: "You are so young that you are a thief."

The soldier next to him glanced at him: "King Luo Bin conspired against him, and his son Cong Ni took him away."

Luo Shixing opened his mouth, wanting to say something, but didn't know what to say.

His mind was buzzing, and he was so flustered that his heart seemed to be jumping out.

what's the situation?It only took him half a month to travel from Liuzhou to Chang'an.

If it wasn't for the still green willows in Lantian County at this time, he would have doubted whether he had traveled for a short time again.

He kept a dazed expression and was thrown into the prison in Lantian County. He was the only one in the room, and it was pitch black. There were no torches, oil lamps like those on TV, but there was moonlight shining through the small ventilation window. Come in, and illuminate the snakes, rats, insects and ants on the ground indistinctly.

Luo Shixing wished he could go deaf immediately when he heard the insects crawling and the occasional mouse cry.

Where did he experience such battles? Even mice have only seen pictures on the Internet since he was a child.

Don't say that big men shouldn't be afraid of these things, what's wrong with men, men should be afraid and still be afraid.

But after a while, he didn't know whether he was numb or found that these rats and insects couldn't hurt him, so he relaxed a little, and then began to frown and think about what went wrong.

You must know that he would happily agree to Luo Binwang at the beginning because he knew that Li Jingye's uprising was in September, and before that, regardless of how colorful Luo Binwang's writing was, Li Jingye would not let others see it, let alone spread it to the states. .

At least until he goes to Yangzhou to be deceived and abducted, this letter will not be circulated, so his personal safety can still be guaranteed.

But now he didn't even enter the city gate of Chang'an, and was arrested in Lantian County. There are only two possibilities, either Li Jingye's affairs were revealed and Empress Dowager Wu Zhao found out in advance, or he started the incident in advance.

Luo Shixing didn't know which one it was, but no matter which one it caught him off guard.

According to the ancient attitude towards treason, their family is afraid that they will all be left alone.

Not to mention that it is not easy for Wu Zhao to take power, so she will be more ruthless than ordinary emperors when encountering such things, in order to frighten Xiaoxiao.

Luo Shixing looked up at the ventilation window, and it was different from the one shown on TV. The place was at most the size of two bricks, and it was probably used to let the turbid air in the cell circulate out.

As for the ground...it is land, there are no floor tiles, but before he was thrown in, everything on his body was searched, except for his clothes, so don't even think about digging tunnels, I'm afraid It’s just that many others are gone before they are dug up.

It seems that there is no good way to do things now, Luo Shixing crouched in the corner of the cell and once again hoped that this was all a dream.

The last time I felt this way was when I just passed through. At that time, I couldn’t understand anything, and I was not used to life. The degree of collapse was deeper than now.

I don't know if I can wear it back if I die again.

Wait... You can't just give up like this, you have to find a way to save yourself, at least you have to quibble!

Luo Shixing recalled the entire call to action, and almost gave up on the spot.

Even if there is no such thing as treason, Luo Binwang's letter belittles Wu Zhao from head to toe, not to mention what Wu Zhao thinks, and her people will not let their father and son go in order to make the Queen Mother happy!

As for the historical record that Wu Zhao felt that King Luo Bin had the talent of a prime minister after knowing the call-to-action letter, you can hear it.

King Luo Bin's rebellion is a certainty, and no one can save him, and it is impossible for Wu Zhao to pardon him. No matter whether he is missing or dead, it is a real social death anyway. Wu Zhao can still show her broad-mindedness by saying this.

Although as long as you don't compete with her for power, the future queen is actually very broad-minded.

The way of sophistry does not seem to work, so if he wants to survive, he must come up with something that can impress everyone, making everyone feel that his death is a loss.

So what is the most important thing for Wu Zhao today?

Nature is power!

Today's Tang Dynasty is full of undercurrents. Li Dan, who was pushed to the top but lives in seclusion, the queen mother who is actually in power, as well as courtiers who follow the queen mother and courtiers who are loyal to Li, are competing with each other. Even the queen mother's position is not very stable. The power in her hands Not much.

At least this bit of power cannot satisfy Wu Zhao's ambition.

So if someone can help her at this time, even if it is a traitor, Wu Zhao may save the other party's life.

After Luo Shixing analyzed each item in his mind, he almost collapsed again.

Although he could be regarded as an elite class in the eyes of others before crossing over, his major is obviously wrong. His major is science and engineering, and he also learned a lot of literature, history and biology because of his interest.

Politics... The scores are all based on rote memorization, and it is also because he likes to start his own business, and he does not need to take the civil service exam to seek a stable job, otherwise he may be bald for several rounds even if he goes ashore.

Luo Shixing racked his brains to think about all kinds of evaluations about the history of this period and some great figures in later generations.

His political literacy is average, but it doesn't matter, he has memorized a lot.

Unfortunately, before he could think of anything, he heard the sound of messy footsteps.

The light of the flame gradually approached, and the jailer holding the torch accurately found his room, and said, "It's your turn, let's go."

Luo Shixing was shocked, what about the meal that he agreed to kill?

Didn't it mean that even in ancient times, even before the death penalty, a good meal would be allowed to go on the road?

Was he cheated again?

The jailer came in and took Luo Shixing by the collar and lifted him out. Because of his movements, the tiger hat on his head slipped to the ground.

Luo Shixing tried his best to reach out but still didn't touch it. He could only watch helplessly as the jailer stepped on it.

Luo Shixing's eyes turned red. The tiger head hat was made for him by King Luo Bin himself.

Just like that, he was brought to an open space, where there was a smell of burnt protein. When Luo Shixing looked up, he happened to see a man being pinned to the ground by several jailers. Press it on the face of the person.

Soon the smell of burnt flesh and the prisoner's misery intertwined into a scene of hell on earth.

Luo Shixing stood there dumbfounded, a little confused about the situation for a while.

He knew that in ancient times there would be facial tattooing, but that kind of punishment was to tattoo the prisoner's face instead of directly branding it!

Before he could figure it out, he was carried over and thrown on the ground. The jailer who was carrying the old iron looked at him indifferently, and said, "This doll is pretty, it's a pity."

His words seemed to be just a sigh of relief, but the movements of his hands were not slow. Over there, Luo Shixing hadn't figured out why he had to suffer like this. He wished that they would give him a good time on the spot. He already felt the iron on his face. heat.

It’s over.

He thought, I'm afraid I'm going to be disfigured.

However, disfigurement is not the point. The point is that if you are not careful, you will be infected these days. Once you are infected, you can only survive if you die.

The high temperature of the soldering iron made him lose his judgment on the distance. He felt that the soldering iron seemed to have reached his face, but he didn't seem to feel any pain.

Just when the lingering scorched breath was lingering at the end of his nose, he suddenly heard someone rushing over and shouting, "Can Luo Shixing, the son of King Luo Bin, be here?"
