Chapter 291: Dongchuang Incident
Mu Yan did not blink, his eyelashes trembled slightly, and then he shook his head.
Don’t know?
Liang Han narrowed his eyes and made a soft sound in agreement.
Before he could turn around, Mu Yan started gesturing with his hands again. Liang Huan guessed, roughly speaking, that they had met each other when they were in the Hall of Renshou a long time ago, but they had never spoken to each other. Later, they were transferred to Lang. Huayuan has basically never been seen before, so I can only say that I know it, but it cannot be regarded as acquaintance.
Liang Huan stopped talking, paused for a moment and went to the prison gate.
How hot it is outside, how cold it is inside the prison. When you are inside, the cold wind blows.
It is said that a place like prison has a strong yin energy, and pregnant women should not come there.
Liang Huan walked in without squinting, Zhang Qiu stood beside him with a smile on his face, he was respectful and a little more attentive and careful than before.
“Knowing that the queen was coming, I specially cleaned the torture room to avoid staining the queen’s eyes.”
Liang Huan glanced at him and smiled: "Why don't you clean the entire imperial prison?"
The prisoner made a sound, and saw that Liang Huan's face was not angry, and he was grinning.
"If you give the Lord and me the person who should be interrogated, I won't be here anymore, so why do you bother to clean up again?"
Liang Han took a deep look. He glanced and turned his head to look ahead.
The prisoner in charge paused for a moment, then quickly nodded and bowed to follow: "Please rest assured, Madam, everything will be judged clearly."
Liang Huan nodded slightly and said in a calm voice: "Every official in this court performs his or her own duties. Everyone has his own place. Only when there is no one sitting in that seat can the remaining people be filled in. Do you think so? "
The prisoner's eyes flashed, and he hurriedly responded, chasing after him.
"Now that you are in charge of this place, it is not easy for people to move around. You have to give something to make a confession, so that your interrogation over the past few days will not be in vain."
Master. The prisoner squeezed his generous palm, with a bit of joy in his eyes, and nodded repeatedly.
Liang Huan looked at him casually: "I and the prisoner have known each other for a long time, and I will help you if I can."
He glanced around and felt disgusted: "This prison is cold, dark, and dark. The people guarding it outside are not much different from the people who are locked up there."
When she came here to identify the troublemakers, she accidentally saw the prisoner complaining.
The prisoner in charge is a shrewd man, Liang Huan said no more.
As he approached, Liang Han waved his hand and dismissed the prisoner. Looking at the steps that could not hide his joy, he shook his head and smiled.
Who doesn’t look at the mountains as high as the mountains?
He envied the officials outside the prison, but he didn't know that there were still people who envied him.
Before the faint smile on Liang Huan's lips disappeared, he caught a glimpse of Mu Yan beside her, staring at her intently.
Liang Huan looked at him: "Do you think I have changed?"
Mu Yan's expression froze and he lowered his eyes.
After a pause, Liang Huan continued: "Sometimes, the emperor may not be unable to distinguish between loyal and traitorous people."
In some respects, traitorous ministers are indeed useful.
The low cries and arguments in the torture chamber, where cries of injustice are everywhere, can easily be ignored.
"Alan——"
"It's you. If you hadn't taken my place, how could I have fallen like this! Stop pretending here, get out!"
Liang Huan walked to the door, and everyone inside looked over. Yuan Zhi turned back to wipe her tears, her movements were stiff, and she looked angry.
Liang Huan went inside and sat down, shielding everyone away. The man who was hung high had his hair disheveled, his clothes were in tatters and barely covered his body, and his exposed skin was scarred and dirty.
If you are still alive, you will not enter the officialdom, and if you die, you will not go to hell. Once a woman goes to jail, she will suffer any crime.
Liang Huan narrowed his eyes: "If I had known this, why would I have wasted my energy to diagnose and treat you in the first place?"
Su Lan turned her head angrily, biting her lip and feeling extremely humiliated: " If the slave hadn't been sick that day, how would she have had the opportunity to serve in the inner palace? Everything she had now should have belonged to the slave, but she didn't feel any guilt at all, and she still showed off in front of the slave all day long. Screaming like a good sister really disgusts this slave!”
Su Lan yelled and scolded Yuan Zhi for a while, and then cried and begged her for mercy.
Liang Huan didn't say anything, just looked at her coldly. Sulan looked very much like a person.
Until the end, I ran out of strength, tired of crying and scolding, and hung my head and choked.
Liang Huan said: "You betrayed me because you hated Yun Zhi?"
Su Lan raised her eyelids: "Shouldn't you hate me?"
Often people who ask this question do not need to answer. Liang Huan did not dwell on the matter, raised her chin and looked at her: "What does Zhao Ruxin promise you? Should I be a female officer of the Sixth Division or a concubine?"
Su Lan Mu The light flashed slightly, and he hesitated and said: "Liang, the head of the Liangfeng Palace."
After saying that, he bit his lip with grievances, lowered his head and twitched, let alone the head now, he should be dead soon. .
Liang Huan brushed her sleeves and stood up, "Su Lan, we can be considered masters and servants. I think I have never treated you badly, but you did it for a mere minister——" She shook her head , sighing softly, "You are also from Hanguang Palace after all. I will treat you as a farewell. You must keep your eyes open and follow the right person in the next life."
After saying that, he picked up his feet and left. , without hesitation.
Just as he took one foot out of the interrogation room, there was another cry and howl behind him, accompanied by the sound of rattling chains.
"Your Majesty, I know I'm wrong. I know I'm wrong. Please, please save me. I don't want to stay here and continue to be humiliated. I don't want to die either..."
" Madam, please save me——"
Sulan stared at the man who was half out of the house, trying desperately to break free from the heavy chains on her body, she just wanted to rush forward and hold the man tightly. Hold on, that wide-sleeved shirt is the only hope in this gloomy and terrifying prison. Once it is gone, she will only have a dead end.
No, she doesn’t want to die, nor does she want to stay here.
"Mother, I am unjustly accused. I did not poison, let alone-"
Liang Huan stopped and stood with his back, "Unjustly accused?"
Seeing Liang Huan stop, Su Lan regained hope and hurriedly defended: "Yes, the slave betrayed the empress, stole medicine for Zhao Longhui, monitored Yuan Zhi, and exposed the empress. These slaves all admitted it, but the slave really knew nothing about the poisoning. I know.”
Liang Huan did not look back: “Su Lan, what you just said alone is enough to kill you, the rest will only determine how you die.”
Liang Huan gestured to leave and stepped out with the other foot.
Watching the man step out, Su Lan's scalp was numb and her whole body was trembling. The huge fear and survival instinct left her with only one thought in her mind, she wanted to live!
Sulan ignored it and shouted hysterically.
"Empress! I have a secret to tell you!"
Liang Huan stood still again, gently raising the corners of her lips and forming a smile.
It’s true that I won’t die until I see the Yellow River, and I won’t shed tears until I see the coffin.
Liang Huan slowly turned around and looked at her: "Do you want to say that it was the Queen who was behind you?"
Su Lan's eyes widened.
