The thief of the fortress dominates the world

Chapter 234

In the prison of Jinyiwei Qianhu, although it is as stealthy and terrifying as Jinyiwei's prison, it is definitely not a comfortable place. It is smelly and dark, extremely dim, and there are rats stalking people from time to time. He crawled over recklessly.

The most frightening thing was that there were a few screams and wails from time to time, and that sound was even more creepy and chilling.

Mu Zuo stayed in the dark prison for half a night in thin clothes, feeling terrified and confused, completely lost his mind.

He knew [-]% of what that Jinyi said about me before was true.My brother-in-law Liu Zhong is very likely to be the secret leader of the Tartars, otherwise Jin Yiwei would not have the courage to break into the magistrate's yamen, and even kill people at will, arrest him, they must have obtained the exact Intelligence dares to do this.

Of course, this is not the most frightening thing, the most frightening thing is that this incident is actually connected with the head of the murderer in Liaodong, the prosperous Wu Anhou.

He didn't think that Liu Zhong was a Tartar spy, let alone that he had the audacity to send someone to assassinate him.

At this moment, he really wanted to pinch Liu Zhong's neck and question that guy. This time, he really hurt himself a lot, and if he didn't do it, his life would be in danger.

You must know that the current emperor hates Tartars to the bone. Once Tartars are involved, no matter how high an official you are or how high your title is, you will be punished severely.

Previously, a young servant in the family of a servant of the Ministry of punishment was found out to be the eyeliner of the Tartars. At that time, the emperor was furious and directly ransacked the servant of the Ministry of punishment for questioning, and finally sentenced him to exile for three thousand miles.

A high-ranking official of the imperial court would end up in this way when he was implicated by the servants in his family. He is a small magistrate, and his brother-in-law is also the leader of the Tartar spies, and he even sent people to assassinate the court officials. He is the mainstay of Liaodong today. I know what happens after thinking about it.

Thinking of this, Mu Zuo's heart went cold, and he felt that this time, he was leaning against the cold wall, his eyes extremely depressed.

He never thought that he would be so ignorant, so unfortunate, that he would be imprisoned so inexplicably. Now that he thinks about it carefully, there was nothing suspicious about Liu Zhong and Liu Qingqing, how did they become Tartars? Spy?
Could it be that someone deliberately framed himself?
For a while, Mu Zuo was convinced that Liu Zhong had harmed him, and for a while he felt that he was framed by political enemies. He thought about all possible candidates in his mind, but denied them all one by one.

While he was worrying about himself, he began to worry about his delicate little concubine Liu Qingqing. He wondered if some wolf-like Jin Yiwei would bully her and eat her tofu. Is she also thinking about herself at this moment, isn't she? will be sad and regret...

In short, Mu Zuo, whose official career has been relatively smooth all his life, has experienced the first major setback in his life, and completely lost the majesty and composure of his usual majestic magistrate. It's been too long.

The more Mu Zuo thought about it, the more frightened he became. He was almost certain that he would be doomed this time. Two lines of old tears burst out involuntarily, and he began to feel sorry for his misfortune.

At this moment, he heard the door of the prison being opened, and the sound of Jin Yiwei's respectful greeting came, and then the sound of footsteps came, which became clearer and closer, and it was obvious that someone was talking to him. Came over here.

Mu Zuo couldn't help being lifted up, a surge of hope arose, he hurriedly stood up with unprecedented agility, and ran to the front of the fence to look out.

With the light of the torches on both sides of the aisle, he saw a figure covered in white walking towards him, and his eyes widened involuntarily.

The man stopped in front of him, lifted the thick white cloak on his head, revealing an extremely handsome face with a mustache.

Mu Zuo was sure that he had never seen this person before, not only asking: "Who are you?"

"You don't have to worry about who I am, I'm here to ask you a few words on behalf of someone." The man said coldly with no expression on his face.

"Who asked you to ask questions?" Mu Zuo was overjoyed, and his voice became urgent.

"I just want to ask you, do you want to die or live? If you want to die, then I will leave now, and I won't say a word to you. It has been confirmed that Liu Zhong is the leader of the Tartar spies, and this person sent The fifty killers who assassinated Marquis Wu An were wiped out, and Liu Zhong himself was also captured. Even if you say you don’t know anything at this time, it’s probably useless. You should know that the court would rather kill a thousand people by mistake than let it go. Pass one. So, if you are going to die, you only need Jin Yiwei to report the matter to the emperor, and you just wait for the whole family to be killed."

The voice of the man in white was very low and slow, but every word fell into Mu Zuo's heart like a huge boulder that made him unable to breathe. Even his breathing became short of breath, and he fell silent for a while.

The man in white was not in a hurry, and after waiting for a while, he said slowly: "If you don't want to end up being executed for treason, there is someone who can save your life."

Hearing this, Mu Zuo suddenly raised his head and blurted out: "Tell me, who can save me?"

"Marquis Wu'an." The man in white said calmly.

"Marquis Wu'an?" Mu Zuo was at a loss, anyone could save him, but it was impossible for this Marquis Wu'an.My own damn brother-in-law Liu Zhong sent someone to assassinate him. It would be good for Marquis Wu An not to kill him himself, but he would even save him. No matter how he heard it, Mu Zuo thought it was a fantasy.

"Believe it or not. Marquis Wu'an is a man who loves talents. I know that you have governed Datong for many years and have achieved political achievements. You also know that Marquis Wu'an was in full swing after the rise of Liaodong. It was a big loss. The current emperor also took a fancy to Marquis Wu'an's ability to command troops, so he conferred the title of nobility and resigned from office, and entrusted him with a heavy responsibility. It can be said that Marquis Wu'an's future is limitless, and the whole territory of Liaodong will be pacified by Marquis Wu'an sooner or later. At that time, the Marquis of Wu'an will open the government and build the government office, and his subordinates will urgently need all kinds of talents. The Marquis of Wu'an knows that you have been deceived by Liu Zhong's brothers and sisters and does not know the truth. If you are willing to submit to Marquis Wu'an's sect, Marquis of Wu'an can guarantee you to survive this disaster safely. If you don’t want to, the Marquis of Wu’an will not force you, and you will publish a book another day, and everything will be decided by His Majesty. That’s all for you to do. If you have figured it out, tell the guard after dawn, and I will explain it to you in detail.”

After finishing speaking, the man in white ignored Mu Zuo's weird and surprised expression, put on his cloak, turned around and left leisurely, leaving Mu Zuo alone in astonishment and doubt.
