The Sage of Confucianism and Taoism

As the number of people from the capital following the prison car increased, Yuan Su, the left minister of the Ministry of Punishment, frowned more and more, because no matter what the guards said about Fang Yun's crimes, the people of Jingguo simply did not buy it.

Coupled with the protection of the students in the school, the anger of the people around him became more and more intense.

Finally, someone yelled.

"Dog officer!" An old woman selling eggs suddenly grabbed an egg and threw it at Yuan Su.

"Bold and unruly!" A child private soldier next to Yuan Su suddenly drew his knife and blocked the egg with the blade.

There was a snap and egg liquid splashed everywhere. Although Yuan Su was not touched, several private soldiers were stained with eggshell and egg liquid, making them look slightly embarrassed.

Yuan Su secretly thought that something was not right, but before he could make a decision, he saw the people nearby throwing whatever they had in their hands. They all stayed away from the prison car, and smashed on the soldiers and government officials, and the area around Yuan Su was the hardest hit area.

The old woman who threw the eggs first distributed the eggs to the people around her and asked them to help throw them together.

"Speed ​​up and head to the Tiger Prison immediately!" Yuan Su roared, holding the official seal in his hand, and directly mobilized the talents of the Holy Temple in the capital to form a huge invisible shield to protect the team and separate all the people.

When Fang Yun heard the words "Tiger Prison", his eyebrows moved and he continued to recite the scriptures of the saints.

The people in the Punishment Department and the Punishment Hall all showed unbearable expressions, and the soldiers were already a little slack, and they became even more powerless when they heard Yuan Su say this.

The people's scolding suddenly increased, and some elderly scholars even cursed loudly.

"Shu Zi Yuan Su, harmed my Jingguo Qilin!"

"A dog's official is a worm, and the dragon of Jingguo does not deserve this humiliation!"

"Traitor of Jingguo, lackey of the left prime minister!"

Everyone knows that people with Fang Yun's status are usually grounded at home if they are not convicted. Even if they are to be imprisoned, they should go to "Ruolu Prison" with excellent conditions. All high-ranking officials are imprisoned there. No matter how bad they are, they should be imprisoned. The "Shanglin Prison" for ordinary petty officials, even if it framed Fang Yun, could only take Fang Yun into the "Jing Prison" of the capital government office, where civilians were imprisoned.

But the Tiger Prison is different. It is for scoundrels or those who commit heinous crimes who have been imprisoned many times. It is the worst prison in the country. It is plagued by pests, rats, rotten corpses and filthy. More than half of the people often die in it.

What’s even more frightening is that the Tiger Prison is not blessed by the power of the holy temple. It is the severe winter at this time, and other places in the capital are protected by the power of the Holy Temple. It is only slightly colder than autumn, but the weather in the Tiger Prison is freezing, and people are being killed every day. freeze to death.

The students from the academy who followed were filled with indignation.

One person said: "Brother Juze, do you want to watch Fang Yun enter the Tiger Prison?"

Qiao Juze sighed: "Aristocratic families are not allowed to interfere in the internal affairs of the country, and the royal family is not allowed to interfere in the affairs of the Holy Court. The Queen Mother is powerless. Now only people from the Xingdian and the Jingguo Xingbu can intervene in this matter. The Xingdian has handed over the power of imprisonment to the Jingguo Xingbu. , now only the traitor Yuan Su can decide where Fang Yun will live. Who would have thought that Prime Minister Zuo and Yuan Su had been plotting today!"

The hatred in Qiao Juze's eyes far exceeded that of others. He was from the Chen Sheng family and already knew about the divine punishment of Yueshu. He never expected that the Zong family and the Lei family would not stop before Fang Yun's death. Instead, they intensified their efforts to try to punish Fang Yun. Luck is put to death.

"You are an in-law from an aristocratic family. Why don't you ask the Chen Sheng family to ask the Holy Court Xing Palace for help?"

Qiao Juze shook his head slightly and said: "The Saints Family should be busy with more important things. In the eyes of those great scholars and even semi-saints, entering the Tiger Prison is nothing at all."

"It's so annoying!" A student couldn't help complaining.

The laws of the Ten Kingdoms were strict. When everyone saw that Yuan Su had used the power of the official seal, they did not dare to push him any further. They could only stop and cursed while watching the team of the Criminal Department leave.

The team was out of touch, and it was difficult for people in front to know the specific situation. Not many people followed, but Qiao Juze insisted on moving forward.

"Brother Qiao, the matter has come to this, there is no use for us to go."

"From today on, I will go to the Tiger Prison at sunrise and leave at sunset, for no other reason than to tell the people of Jingguo that the Zuo Xiang Treacherous Party once imprisoned the Xusheng of the human race and the pillars of Jingguo in the Tiger Prison!" Qiao Juze continued to move forward. Go, no hesitation on his face.

"If Marquis Fang Wen doesn't leave the Tiger Prison for one day, I will go on strike for the day! I will go back to the academy to call on my classmates to go on strike! Fang Yun should not be so humiliated in Jingguo! What's more, he also saved his cousin Zhixing! Everyone, who would like to create a message with me and spread it throughout the capital?" Zhang Chengyu said.

"I!"

"I'm waiting to go!"

Hundreds of people responded.

"Okay! The rest of the students followed Brother Qiao to support Fang Wenhou in front of the Tiger Prison. The rest of the students followed me back to the academy and copied the citations all night to call for a strike!"

"Fang Yun is safe and sound in Jiangzhou, but he is behind bars when he arrives in the capital! The princes from all over the Jingguo State are about to enter the capital. We cannot let the people in the other four states look down on our students in the capital! The traitors are all over the sky, but we have righteousness!"

"Let's go and redress Fang Zhenguo's grievance!"

The students of the academy were divided into two parts: some went to the Tiger Prison, and some returned to the academy.

Fang Yun always ignored the outside world and silently recited the classics of the saints.

It was dark at night and thousands of houses were lit with lights. Fang Yun suddenly felt the temperature around him change. When he opened his eyes, he seemed to have entered another world.

In the past, the people on the street were wearing thin clothes and were leisurely and comfortable, but the people on this street were either wearing thick cotton clothes or running fast with their bodies curled up.

"Hiss..." Many people around him gasped because of the cold, and the white mist formed by their breath formed a continuous sheet.

Fang Yun looked around. The vegetation here was withered and cold, as if it was a dead land.

As a Jinshi, Fang Yun was not affected by the cold weather, but ordinary people would get frostbite quickly if they did not wear thick cotton clothes.

Not long after, Fang Yun saw a different building, where the red walls were extremely tall, with many sharp gravels on the top of the walls, and a stone guard tower every ten feet, with a bonfire burning inside the guard tower, and the guards on it were clearly visible.

The convoy stopped in front of a dilapidated gate. The stone lion in front of the gate could no longer be seen clearly, the paint on the door was peeling, the plaque was missing a corner, and the gold paint on the three characters on it was almost gone.

Tiger Prison.

Fang Yun's eyes left the plaque, and he heard the gate creaking and slowly opening. After a closer look, he found that the gate was actually made of cast iron and needed a winch to open.

"Putting human traffickers in the death row area, the treatment is equivalent to that of a death row prisoner with extremely serious crimes. Who dares to disobey in public? Don't blame the sharp ghost-headed knife on the execution ground!" Without Yuan Su's words, a small official shouted arrogantly.

The guards took Fang Yun off the prison cart, sent him to the gate, and handed him over to the jailer.

Then a man in an eighth-rank official uniform ran out with a smile. He was about 40 years old and shouted as he ran: "This subordinate greets Yuan Su, the original Hanlin!"

Yuan Su got off his horse and waved his hand, motioning the jailer to follow him in. He didn't even look at the man, and said as he walked: "Prison Officer Huo, do you remember what happened four years ago?"

Prison Officer Huo immediately smiled flatteringly and followed behind Yuan Su and said: "Your great kindness and virtue will never be forgotten by me!"
