Dali Temple was set up by Emperor Taizu himself, and it is in charge of the trial of criminal and prison cases, which is equivalent to the modern Supreme People's Court. Cases judged by Dali Temple must be reported to the Ministry of Criminal Justice for approval, and the Dali Temple Prison where Qi Chen is located is used to detain important criminals in the Wangcheng area. place.

So Ming Shuo took Xiao Yue to the Ministry of Criminal Justice first, and asked to see Duan Qiusheng, the servant of the Ministry of Criminal Justice, but was turned away at first.

In such troubled times, all the courtiers who had stood behind King Xin wanted to protect themselves wisely.

Although Xiaoyue didn't want to hurt the innocent, but without Duan Qiusheng's help, he couldn't get into the Dali Prison at all.

So he could only threaten Duan Qiusheng, and lied that Qi Chen's roster was still in his hands.

Duan Qiusheng was over sixty years old, and he had been an official for half his life. Although he was not considered clean and honest, he had never bent the law for personal gain. Therefore, his descendants were blessed and his four generations lived together. Xiaoyue promised that as long as Duan Qiusheng brought him to see Qi Chen, he would be from now on No more embarrassment.

Duan Qiusheng had no choice but to use the pretext of "Gaoxu and his relative envoys to visit the prison" in a disguised form, and with sincerity and fear, he persuaded the Minister of the Ministry of Punishment and got a pass order.

But on the way to the Dali Temple Prison, the three of them received the news that the Dali Temple Prison was flooded.

There are three prison areas in Dali Temple Prison. The third area is a living prison. Most of the people detained here have not been conclusively convicted of crimes. However, due to the delay in the trial of the case, many people will come in and out.

According to the official documents of the Ministry of Criminal Justice, Qi Chen was detained in the third district.

But when Xiaoyue arrived, the third district had already burned down to a black house filled with black smoke. Since the prison was made of steel as the building skeleton, fortunately it did not collapse, and the fire was extinguished immediately.

In front of the third area, the smooth marble road is densely covered with small hills covered with white cloth. Duan Qiusheng was holding up the hem of his clothes, tripping over a scorched arm in a panic, and almost falling into the pile of corpses: "General Xiao, this This... here..."

Before Duan Qiusheng finished speaking, Xiaoyue was already running towards the dark gray corridor with towering walls at the front.

Xiao Yue stared at the choking smoke, passed through the crowd, knocked away countless jailers and court officers, and even bumped into charred corpses being carried twice.

He knew that it was impossible for Qi Chen to be among the corpses lying on the ground, no matter how desolate he was, he was still a prince, he would not be thrown on the ground with those prisoners, he at least... at least...

Xiao Yue's heart seemed to have turned into a rock full of edges and corners. He looked at the rows of corpses covered with yellow cloth on the stone platforms on both sides of the corridor, and his internal organs trembled in extreme fear.

Qi Chen, he...

No, not him.

Xiaoyue quickened his pace, he tried to take a deep breath to calm himself down, but the deeper he took, the faster the stone in his chest swelled, the whole chest was crowded and heavy, and he began to tremble unconsciously.

He lifted those yellow cloths over and over again.

not him……

No.

……neither.

The people under the yellow cloth on the stone platform were all carried out from specific cells, some of them were completely changed, but Xiaoyue could recognize that they were not Qi Chen.

The crowded corridor made it impossible for Xiaoyue to run fast. He gradually lost the pungent smell of burning foreign objects. The feeling of suffocation made him take another deep breath, but his nose seemed to be blocked, so he could only breathe heavily , struggling to push through the crowd again and again, shouting for help again and again.

"—Qi Chen!!"

The long corridor was filled with chaos, the voices of people, objects, and footsteps mixed with the wailing of the survivors, the corridor was like a huge bell, completely swallowing Xiaoyue's voice.

Xiaoyue shouted Qi Chen's name, grasping the backs of those he thought were familiar over and over again, like a drowning man who was about to drown, desperately calling for help, but failed to help him.

Qi Chen, he... where is he...

Xiaoyue's eyes felt sore, Qi Chen had only been taken to Dali Temple for a few hours, why did he escape?Why?Is Qi Chen dead?is he still alive

Xiao Yue randomly grabbed one person: "Where is Wang Xin? Where is Wang Xin?"

"I don't know! The survivors of the third district are all there!"

over there? ?

Xiao Yue started to run again, bumped into a man in three steps, he was tall and tall, Ming Shuo could lock his figure from a long distance, but he couldn't catch up to him no matter what.

The survivors wailed everywhere, the doctor removed the scorched arm from the man's arm, and the blood spattered Xiaoyue's clothes.

Xiao Yue walks among the wounded all over the place, looking around in a panic.

"—Qi Chen!!" He shouted.

There were many wounded survivors, lying on the ground and screaming, the stone in Xiao Yuezi's heart was hurting, his chest was about to explode, he hoped that Qi Chen was among them, even if he was seriously injured, as long as It's good to be alive...

He can't die, Xiaoyue doesn't know what to do when he dies.

Xiao Yue staggered and stepped over the pair of legs that were drooping on the ground, shouting at the top of his lungs.

Under the bronze pillar beside the corridor, the medical officer cut off the sleeve of Qi Chensu's robe, and took out the wooden thorns that had rotted on his shoulder one by one. The punctured wound was still bleeding, and the medical officer couldn't tell which piece Where is the meat, where is the sawdust.

Qi Chen gritted his teeth, even though his head was covered with bean-sized cold sweat, even though his face was covered with blood and carbon dust, he was still as cold and stern as a sharp sword with unabated murderous intent.

Xiaoyue's voice suddenly came, and a crack appeared on Qi Chen's stern face.

The voice crashed into his ears.

Qi Chen never thought that Xiaoyue would come, he thought that the palace was raided, Xiaoyue must have left with Fang Yuwu...

The medical officer managed to pinch a thorn buried deep in the flesh, Qi Chen stood up abruptly, pulled the wound vigorously, and the blood from the stains sprayed into the medical officer's eyes.

"Xiaoyue!"

The moment he heard Qi Chen's voice, Xiao Yue froze in place.

He began to listen carefully to the sounds around him, the captain's shouts of orders, the heart-piercing wailing of the wounded, and even the sound of messy footsteps.

Xiao Yue was stunned for a long time, then suddenly turned around, Qi Chen was standing at the end of his line of sight, in the corridor full of people, like a sculpture stained with dust but still beautiful.

This scene was exactly the same as the day when the Aerospace Science and Technology Building exploded. Ye Zhao stood in the most dangerous blasting area, and Xiao Yue rushed into the building against the crowd.

At that time, Ye Zhao was also like this, his face and body were stained with pitch-black burnt ash, but he didn't look embarrassed at all. He was also like this, calling out Xiao Yue's name through the crowd, and Xiao Yue also recklessly rushed to him.

Qi Chen opened his arms and let Xiao Yue crash into his arms.

Qi Chen's body temperature is hot, his heartbeat is thick and powerful, and his breath is fresh and hot.

Xiaoyue's tears finally burst. Just a struggling person buried in the water with his head held down, was let go when he was on the verge of death, mechanically grasping every trace of air for survival.

"Xiaoyue?" Qi Chen's smoke-blackened fingers were still stained with wet blood, he shook Xiaoyue's shoulder tremblingly, "Why did you come?"

Xiao Yue trembled in Qi Chen's arms, crying, "I'm worried about you...I'm very worried about you."

Qi Chen's red eyes were covered with mist, and he tried his best to suppress his ecstatic emotions: "Fool, I'm fine, why are you running around like this?"

He was good, very good, never been better.

The moment Qi Chen stepped into Dali Temple, he thought he was really going to lose Xiaoyue this time.

But when Xiaoyue came, Xiaoyue was worried about him, trembling with fear, and weeping into his arms...

Qi Chen forgot the sharp pain of the thorn in his flesh, and held the face of the person in his arms: "Okay, this king is not dead yet, you are crying so much..."

Xiao Yue grabbed Qi Chen's neck and kissed her deeply.

The military doctor at the side was about to move Qi Chen back and forth, but seeing the situation, he had no way of doing anything, and the people around him had no time to care about who was kissing.

Qi Chen was stunned for a moment, Xiao Yue's lips were soft and clear, wet with tears, and he looked to pry open his lips and teeth.

Xiaoyue hugged Qi Chen's head, venting his almost collapsed emotions, now except for Qi Chen's body temperature, he can't get any comfort and comfort from anywhere, only when Qi Chen kisses him, can Xiaoyue truly feel that he is still alive live.

But Qi Chen didn't respond to him, Xiaoyue eagerly kissed him deeper and deeper, wanting to stimulate Qi Chen to respond to him, he grabbed Qi Chen's shoulder indiscriminately.

The wound was embedded with fingers, and Qi Chen let out a muffled snort.

Xiaoyue let go of him hastily, her lips and teeth suddenly struggled: "Is that right..."

Qi Chen suddenly pulled him back and kissed him again.

Xiaoyue was very concerned about Qi Chen's injury, but he didn't want to leave Qi Chen's lips, so he could only respond to Qi Chen, rolling up his sleeves to press down on his bleeding wound.

After a long time, when Xiao Yue was suffocating slightly, Qi Chen let him go because Ming Shuo came over.

Ming Shuo rushed forward with his sword in hand: "My lord, your injury?"

"It's okay, a little injury." Qi Chen glanced at the end of the smoky tunnel, "Someone is afraid of being implicated by this king, and wants to protect themselves wisely."

Ming Shuo said angrily, "Which bastard is it!"

Xiaoyue squatted in front of Qi Chen, holding Qi Chen's hand tightly: "You mean it's your own people who want to harm you?"

Qi Chen's wound was pried open again by tweezers, the pain made him tremble, and he could only nod his head.

Xiaoyue thought, Qi Chen's enemies naturally didn't need to be so eager to kill him, but if they were standing behind Qi Chen, they should be more afraid of the roster being leaked out, so...

After the military doctor fixed Qi Chen's wound and left, Xiao Yue squeezed Qi Chen's hand: "My lord."

Qi Chen looked down at him: "Huh?"

Xiaoyue tried to calm down and said, "I can find the person who set the fire."

Ming Shuo quickly squatted down, suppressed his voice, and said, "How do I find it?"

Xiao Yue said: "Probably some people think that your roster is already in the hands of Lord Fang, so they want to use your life as a gift of surrender to Lord Fang, so that Lord Fang will let him go."

Qi Chen frowned: "Why do you know about the roster?"

Xiaoyue looked at Qi Chen from the bottom up, and his jaw was raised at an angle: "I'm not stupid, the brochure... I burned it."

Qi Chen was surprised and delighted, the thing he was most worried about in that brochure, in order to wipe out Qi Chen's old department, Fang Yuwu must want to get that brochure.

Xiao Yue continued: "I still remember many of the names on the roster, as long as you pay attention to who has been close to the Shentonghoufu in the past two days, you can know who is harming you."

Ming Shuo: "Xiao Shanqing is right!"

"No." Qi Chen squeezed Xiao Yue's hand heavily, and ordered, "This move is too dangerous, don't get yourself into trouble, don't get involved."

Xiao Yue: "Master Fang Hou will not do anything to me."

"Father will not do anything to this king, this king is not in such a situation."

"But……"

"It's not the laws and laws of Nanyue that want this king to die. It's not as simple as you imagined here. Don't worry about anything, don't get involved."

Ming Shuo felt that standing here was really in the way, so he stood aside in embarrassment.

Xiaoyue was a little anxious: "...But I want to help you."

Qi Chen still shook his head: "Do you know, if those people in the brochure know that you are helping Fang Yuwu, they will definitely treat you against you. If the king is not by your side, you can't leave Ming Qianhu's sight."

Xiao Yue lowered his eyes, he was the one who harmed Qi Chen, but Qi Chen really didn't blame him.

Seeing Xiaoyue was about to cry again, Qi Chen gently stroked his cheek: "This king said, everything this king does is for us, why don't you believe it."

Xiaoyue always feels that saving a position in Qi Chen's heart is more important than anything else, just because Qi Chen used him twice, he no longer trusts Qi Chen, and his heart is all about the guilt of the other party's Yuwu, he is always vacillating, that's why he hurt him. Qi Chen was always worrying about gain and loss, and finally killed General Xiao, which single-handedly caused today's situation.

With tears in his eyes, Xiao Yue looked deeply into Qi Chen's eyes, and tremblingly said: "I believe...I believe now, I was wrong, I will listen to your words in the future, I will never see Master Fang again... ..."

Qi Chen's heart was shocked, cold sweat dripped down his neck, but there was no trace of pain on his face.

This is what he wanted to hear the most, he had thought about it for a long time, and he finally heard it from Xiaoyue.

He looked at Xiaoyue in astonishment for a long time, and a haggard smile appeared on the corners of his eyes and brows: "Are you serious?"

Xiao Yue nodded.

He was too afraid of losing Qi Chen, just now, he thought Qi Chen was dead, he didn't dare to look for Qi Chen among the dead, he didn't know how to face a dead Qi Chen, a Qi Chen who no longer had body temperature Chen.

Qi Chen didn't know that if Xiaoyue could be given a chance to choose again, Xiaoyue would rather sacrifice his life to Fang Yuwu for atonement than betray him again.

However, all of this cannot be turned back.

Qi Chen held Xiao Yue's shoulders, looking at Xiao Yue's eyes full of tears, Qi Chen didn't know how to comfort him, so he could only tell him softly: "Don't cry, you're so ugly."

Xiao Yue laughed and cried.

Of course Xiaoyue is not ugly, his pair of autumn water eyes are very talented, especially when the tears are shining, they are so passionate that it is almost irresistible.

"Xiao Shanqing!!" Ming Shuo suddenly ran over, "We have to go, the Dali Temple is flooded and we may attract suspicion here, and your lord will be in trouble at that time."

At the other end of the corridor, a man with a handsome face was walking towards this side.

Xiao Yue remembered that face, Shen Yi'an once told him that that person was Bai Qiu, Shaoqing from Dali Temple.

Xiaoyue held Qi Chen's hand tightly: "My lord, wait for me, I will find a way to save you."

Qi Chen frowned: "I told you not to meddle, you just said to listen to me, just take care of yourself."

Bai Qiu vaguely saw Ming Shuo's figure through the crowd, and couldn't help speeding up his pace.

Xiaoyue: "I..."

Before Xiaoyue could finish speaking, Qi Chen pushed Xiaoyue to Mingshuo: "Hurry up and take him away, watch him closely."

"Yes, my lord!" Ming Shuo pulled Xiao Yue back.

Xiaoyue took three steps and turned her head, and was dragged by Mingshuo into the crowded corridor.

Bai Qiu, who was coming towards him, saluted Qi Chen respectfully, and looked at the direction where the two figures disappeared: "Who was the prince talking to just now?"

Qi Chen closed his eyes, and said coldly, "Bai Shaoqing was wrong."

Bai Qiu humbly smiled: "Your Majesty, don't blame me, the third area suddenly flooded, I'm afraid some bad guys got in, I'm just worried about your safety."

"Hmph." Qi Chen sneered, "Mixed in?"

Qi Chen looked at him, Zang Feng Wo Rui's eyes had deep meaning.

Bai Qiu bowed slightly: "Yes, I mixed in, so I decided to give you special protection."

Qi Chen smiled and remained silent.
