Chapter 85 In the Prison

Kyoto Shofu Fuchu.

Li Wensheng was pacing back and forth in the lobby, looking a little anxious!

At this time, the housekeeper hurriedly walked in and said:

"Master, Master Yuan is here!"

As soon as he finished speaking, a middle-aged man in official uniform walked in.

When Li Wensheng saw this, he quickly stepped forward and asked:

"Yuan Hongsheng, what on earth is going on?"

The person who came was Yuan Hongsheng, the Minister of Punishment, and he also said with a blank look on his face:

"Even my subordinates don't know!"ъìqυgΕtv.℃ǒΜ

"You are the Minister of Justice, how can you not know about this arrest?" Li Wensheng said angrily.

"I really don't know. The people your Majesty directly asked the Imperial Guard to go to the palace to pick up didn't go through our Criminal Department at all!"

When Li Wensheng heard this, his face became even more anxious and he murmured:

"Now~maybe something really big happened!"

He immediately looked at Yuan Hongsheng and said quickly:

"Let's go, follow me into the palace to meet the Holy Spirit!"

After that, Li Wensheng was about to drag Yuan Hongsheng into the palace, but Yuan Hongsheng quickly stopped Li Wensheng and said:

"Master Li, you can't enter the palace now!"

"Why can't I get in?"

Yuan Hongsheng sighed and said hurriedly:

"After the official learned about this, he immediately wanted to enter the palace, but the palace gate was guarded by the imperial army, claiming that His Majesty did not want to see anyone!"

When Li Wensheng heard this, his face became extremely solemn. He thought for a moment and asked:

"Where is Wang Jingzhou? Where is he? Such a big thing happened in the palace, why can't he be seen?"

Yuan Hongsheng thought for a while and said:

"I heard that he entered the palace last night and never came out. Early this morning, the royal power was taken away by the Imperial Army!"

Li Wensheng lowered his head with a sullen face, and started pacing back and forth again. This was an inadvertent action when he was thinking, and he murmured: "It shouldn't be, this is really weird."

After a long time, Li Wensheng raised his head and asked:

"How many days will it take for Old General Feng from the Royal Palace to be buried?"

"It's tomorrow!" Yuan Hongsheng said hurriedly after hearing this.

Li Wensheng sighed and said slowly:

"With Old General Feng's status in the palace..., you and I will go together tomorrow. If Wang Quan shows up, then so be it. If he doesn't, I'll have to..."

Yuan Hongsheng nodded in confusion and sighed deeply!

………

Kyoto Tenlao is located under the Lingshan Mountain behind the Kyoto Imperial Palace!

Since the late emperor was assisted by Huang Dingtian when he ascended the throne, and His Majesty was also protected by the late emperor's remaining power when he ascended the throne, there was no chaos in seizing the legitimate heir, and the other royal family members also performed their duties honestly.

Enjoy their glory and wealth!

Therefore, this Tianlao seems to be in vain over the years. There are only one or two people from the Ministry of Etiquette who come here from time to time to clean up. Other than that, almost no one comes here!

But today is different. The originally deserted Tianlao welcomed its first "guest" Wang Quan in decades.

I saw that the outer and inner perimeter of the Tianlao were heavily guarded, and no slightest sign of trouble would be missed!

But how could these stop Lu Xiaohe? He was wearing night clothes and taking advantage of the darkness to quietly reach the door of the prison.

Taking advantage of the changing of the guard, he cleverly sneaked into the Heavenly Prison and walked along the stone steps towards the depths of the Heavenly Prison!

After a while, he met two guards patrolling along the road. Lu Xiaohe quickly jumped up and used Qinggong along the stone wall to cling to the top of the stone!

I saw one of the guards sighing:

"This prince is really a tough guy. He didn't even say a word of begging for mercy after he came in!"

Another said calmly:

"Who do you think he is? He is the prince who was born in a prince's palace. This kind of integrity is something he was born with!"

The guard said disapprovingly:

"What happened to the palace? Those who were imprisoned here back then were all members of the royal family. After coming in, who didn't cry out and beg for mercy?"

"You know again?"

"My great-great-grandfather was the head of the prison back then. What he told my father back then, please don't tell me..."

"..."

The two of them were getting farther and farther away, and Lu Xiaohe also fell down from the top of the stone. After hesitating for a moment, he walked in the direction the two of them had just gone!

Soon after, Lu Xiaohe saw a cell in front of him with bright lights, but no one there. Lu Xiaohe carefully sensed the surroundings, but there was no sign of anyone, and then he walked over quietly and slowly!

After getting closer, they saw Wang Quan sitting cross-legged on the ground in the cell with his eyes closed, and Wang Quan's hands were locked tightly with two arm-thick chains.

Lu Xiaohe's expression changed. Just when he was about to speak, he heard Wang Quan speak first:

"You came!"

Lu Xiaohe frowned, then said with a faint smile:

"Tsk, tsk, tsk~, is this still the Wang Quan I know? How come he has become so depressed?"

Wang Quan opened his eyes and said angrily:

"Are you just here to make some sarcastic remarks?"

Lu Xiaohe chuckled lightly and said:

"I came here to see if you were really sentenced by the emperor!"

"Then did you see it?"

"I see. It seems that you have really angered the emperor. Accompanying the emperor is like accompanying a tiger!" Lu Xiaohe sighed. After that, he threw the Jiuli Sword into the cell and said lightly:

"hurry up!"

"What's the hurry?" Wang Quan asked.

Lu Xiaohe said impatiently:

"Hurry up and cut off your iron chain and leave quickly. Do you really want to stay here?"

As soon as he finished speaking, a figure walked slowly around the corner beside the cell and said lightly:

"Where to go?"

Lu Xiaohe was startled when he saw the figure of the middle-aged man slowly walking from the darkness to the bright torch!

Lu Xiaohe's face was solemn, and his murderous intent suddenly appeared. Just when he was about to take action, he heard the middle-aged man say with a faint smile:

"Young man, if you do it, you won't be able to get out!"

"Second uncle?" Wang Quan suddenly said in surprise when he saw this figure!

Lu Xiaohe was also a little confused. He saw Wang Jingzhou slowly looking at Wang Quan, and after a moment, he said calmly:

"How's the injury on your back?"

"Nothing serious!" Wang Quan replied.

Wang Jingzhou nodded silently and continued:

"Have you thought clearly?"

Wang Quan was stunned for a moment, then nodded: "Think clearly!"

"Then tell me!"

Wang Quan nodded, smiled lightly and said:

"It's actually very simple. It can be summed up in one sentence: the relationship is different!"

“Why are relationships different?”

Wang Quan hesitated for a moment and said: "The relationship between father and Your Majesty is different from my relationship with the prince.

Therefore, even if your father speaks wantonly, your majesty knows that your father has absolutely nothing in mind, and your majesty will not take his nephew’s words seriously, but the prince cannot be sure, after all, he and I have no friendship at all!”

Wang Jingzhou nodded and said slowly:

"Not only the prince, but any monarch will not like his ministers to say such things. It is just that your majesty has an indelible bond with our royal family, or with your father, so he will blindly tolerate your behavior.

But Your Majesty will eventually grow old, and your father will eventually pass on his position to you. If you don’t grow up like this, our Wang family will not end well!”

Wang Quan lowered his head and stopped talking. He didn’t know what he was thinking!

After a long time, Wang Jingzhou sighed, pointed at Lu Xiaohe and said:

"Is he the helper you are looking for?"

Wang Quan raised his head, looked at Lu Xiaohe, and said with some surprise:

"Second uncle, you really know!"
