Marry the right man on the wrong sedan chair
Chapter 68
In a blink of an eye, it has been more than a month since I came to the barracks, but there is no movement from the court.
Zhuang Han was very worried about the safety of his master, Zhang Ma and the people in Miluzhai, but he really didn't know how to ask Wu Wenxuan to borrow troops from him to save his master and them.
Although he knew that Wu Wenxuan would send him a team, but these soldiers were for future battles, how could he let himself break the military discipline, after thinking about it, he gave up.
Today, the two of them were looking at the terrain in the tent and discussing the art of war; praying for blessings to return,
"My lord, it's not good. I sent an informant, Fei Ge, to send a letter saying that the imperial court plans to execute Taixuan and the people in Miluzhai on the fifth day of next month."
After hearing this, Zhuang Han froze as if struck by lightning.
All of a sudden, my mind was flustered, and I hurried forward to ask for blessings, "When did it happen?"
"The letter just received, here comes to report."
"Isn't today the first day of junior high school? There are still four more days, let's say..." Speaking of this, Zhuang Han casually picked up his coat, took off his long sword, and rushed out, but was stopped by Wu Wenxuan, saying, "Hanhan, Shaoan Wu Cao, besides, it might be too dangerous for you to go alone."
"Could it be that I just watched them being executed without going to rescue them?" Zhuang Han looked very anxious, "Brother Wu, even if I die, I must save Master and them."
"Hanhan, I will find a way to save them, don't worry, if you rush to the capital so recklessly, I'm afraid you will die in vain."
"He's not your master, and you've always been hostile to them, of course you won't be worried!" Zhuang Han blurted out in a hurry.
Wu Wenxuan was startled, looked at Zhuang Han and sighed heavily, stepped forward slowly, and hugged him in his arms, "Hanhan... I'm sorry, I didn't take your feelings into consideration... That's right, if my own master suffers I’m sure I’m going to be so anxious about things like this.”
Zhuang Han looked up at him, "Brother Wu, I'm the one who should say I'm sorry; I blurted out just now in a moment of impatience, if I offend you, I hope..."
"Hanhan, stop talking, I understand, I understand..."
When the mood stabilized a bit, because there were still important matters to be discussed in the military camp, although Wu Wenxuan was worried about letting Zhuang Han go to the capital to rescue people, he really couldn't leave, so he ordered Shen Qing to lead a team to go with Zhuang Han to rescue people. There were also two lieutenants who went with them, as well as the personal eunuch Qi An.
Shen Qing nodded, then turned and left the tent.
"Hanhan, when you arrive in the capital, you must be careful in everything, and don't be arrogant, you know?" Wu Wenxuan frowned and confessed, "You must not make any mistakes."
Zhuang Han nodded heavily.
Before the two of them said a few words of parting, Shen Qing really acted quickly, quickly picked out a good person, and waited outside the tent.
Zhuang Han put on his clothes, Wu Wenxuan carefully put on the cloak for him, and looked at him deeply and reluctantly, "No matter whether the rescue is successful or not, Han Han, you must not make any mistakes, you must come back intact, you must know In my heart, you are the most important."
Zhuang Han looked at him without saying a word.
"Hanhan!" Wu Wenxuan hugged him into his arms, "Promise me."
"Yes." Zhuang Han replied.
Wu Wenxuan gently pushed Zhuang Han away, and before he could react, he covered his lips and kissed him.
Zhuang Han couldn't hide, so he could only let him go.
When the two of them got out of the tent, there was already a group of people waiting outside, about 30 people. Looking around, one could tell that they were elites.
Shen Qing replied, "My lord, this is a group of elites in our army. They are proficient in all kinds of martial arts, and they are excellent in horseback riding and archery. They can also play with swords and spears well. I wonder if the lord and brother Shen are satisfied?"
Zhuang Han cupped his hands and said, "Thank you, General Shen, I'm satisfied, very satisfied."
Wu Wenxuan said, "You all have to listen to my Brother Han's arrangements for this mission. Not only must you save people, but you must also protect my Brother Han's safety. If he makes a mistake, come see me!"
After the man heard this, he cupped his hands and said, "Yes, my lord!"
Wu Wenxuan nodded in satisfaction, then stepped forward and said to Shen Qing, "You must protect Brother Han's safety." He deliberately stretched out his arms to hug Shen Qing, and whispered in his ear, "Except for the safety of Brother Han , other people are not important, if necessary, find an opportunity to kill Taixuan and that mother Zhang. Also, your parents are here with me, so don't get distracted."
Hearing this, Shen Qing was startled, then nodded, and replied, "This subordinate understands."
Wu Wenxuan chuckled, "Okay, I'm relieved that Shen Qing has you." He patted him on the shoulder, "Let's go."
Zhuang Han also flew onto the horse, and cupped his hands on the horse, "Brother Wu, farewell, take care."
Wu Wenxuan stood outside the tent door, staring at him deeply, eyes full of reluctance, and then said with difficulty, "Farewell, take care."
Zhuang Han smiled faintly, shouted "drive", rode his red rabbit, and led the team out of the camp.
Wu Wenxuan stood where he was, staring at it for a long time, for a long time...
Then he ordered Qilu and Qishou to say, "You two bring a few masters from the rivers and lakes to secretly protect the master of the village, and then monitor Shen Qing. Also, you must kill Taixuan and Zhang Ma, and you must not stay behind." live."
Qi Lu and Qi Shou said in unison, "Yes, my lord." As they spoke, they got on their horses one after another and drove out of the barracks.
Seeing their disappearing figures, Wu Wenxuan clenched his fists secretly, thinking, Brother Han, Taixuan and Mama Zhang killed our child, they must die, only when they are dead can you have no worries and can only stay by my side.
At this moment, if he could take Zhuang Han's feelings into consideration and not secretly issue this order... so what if he took it into consideration?With his Hanhan temperament, even if he knew that the child died at the hands of the person he trusted the most, he might not be cruel enough to kill them.Those who care, even if they suffer all the grievances and pains, they are reluctant to hurt half a point.
Therefore, Wu Wenxuan must be ruthless for him, this is also the only way to keep Zhuang Han by his side and cannot leave him; Can't resist the good fortune.
……
Zhuang Han led the team and drove non-stop all night. After crossing the Yangtze River and driving for another day, they rested in a small town. Fearing that the crowd would be too eye-catching, they found a hill outside the town to rest.
After taking a nap for a while, Zhuang Han hurriedly ordered everyone to hurry.
Although Shen Qing was a great general, it was only in name. He knew how important Zhuang Han was to Wu Wenxuan, so he was polite to Zhuang Han all the way, and obeyed him in everything.
But at this moment, all the officers and men looked tired, and they were rushing so hard, let alone people, even horses couldn't bear it; after thinking about it, they cupped their hands and said, "Brother Shen, if you continue on this journey, you may reach the capital. Both the man and the horse are tired, and now we are not far from the capital, why don't we take a good rest here?"
After Zhuang Han heard this, he frowned, but looked at the soldiers, and although he was extremely anxious, he could only nod his head in agreement.
The wild flowers on the mountain bloomed more brilliantly, and the vegetation became more lush. In a blink of an eye, it was summer again. A gust of wind blew by, and the fragrance of flowers all over the mountain wafted. Zhuang Han looked in the direction of Kyoto thoughtfully.
At this time, he heard Qi'an calling himself, and turned his head to see Qi'an presenting the exquisite cakes in the package, and said with a smile, "Master, eat a cake, this is what the prince specially ordered, and it's all your love." food."
Zhuang Han looked at the exquisite pastries, and recalled that last year, when they lost their way to Qinzhou, they were pregnant at that time, and they were very greedy. They always prepared pastries as snacks. One year, but such a big change, sighed secretly, took a pastry and put it in his mouth, chewed it twice, and frowned slightly.
Seeing his expression, Qi An hurriedly asked, "What's the matter, master? Is it not to your liking?"
Zhuang Han shook his head, "No, it's delicious, but I'm not very hungry." Looking at the other people, some were eating dried steamed buns, some were drinking water, and some were resting their eyes, "Xiao Anzi , share the cakes with everyone, and tell everyone that we will rest for the night tonight and start our journey tomorrow.”
"Yes, master."
Zhuang Han sat alone on the top of the mountain, the wind blew, and the rain of flowers scattered all over the sky on Zhuang Han's head and shoulders. Qi'an looked at Zhuang Han's lonely figure, sighed and shook his head.
Shen Qing patted Qi An on the shoulder, "Hey, what is the relationship between Brother Shen and King Wu?"
"What exactly is the relationship?" Qi An said, "It's the relationship you saw, so you and I must be well protected along the way, or our lives will be in danger."
Shen Qing glanced at Qi'an, frowned, and then looked at Zhuang Han, "You said he...why is he more beautiful than a woman?"
"Of course, I don't look at our village..." Qi'an immediately changed his words, "It's okay to dress up, I can't see that she is more beautiful than a woman..."
Shen Qing glanced at him and chuckled, "That's right, it's a bit far-fetched to talk about beauty with you, an eunuch."
"You..." Qi'an glared at him angrily.
Shen Qing snorted softly, turned around and went to Zhuang Han, with Qi An behind him, cursing, you old fox!Old pervert!
Standing behind Zhuang Han, Shen Qing frowned and thought to herself, why does this person always feel somewhat similar to the previous princess?
Just as he was thinking, Zhuang Han turned his head, smiled slightly, and said, "General Shen."
Shen Qing was taken aback for a moment, then sat beside Zhuang Han and said, "Brother Shen, don't ask me to be called by the general." After hesitating, he looked sideways, cleared his throat, and finally said, "I didn't expect the concubine to be a woman How dare you have such guts? Your lord is also assured of letting a woman go to the capital to take risks."
After hearing this, Zhuang Han was taken aback, and turned to look at him, "General Shen, what are you talking about?"
Shen Qing lowered her head slightly, "Princess, I recognized you a long time ago, don't worry, my subordinates won't talk nonsense."
Zhuang Han smiled awkwardly, "General Shen..."
"Hey, princess, don't be afraid, don't worry, your subordinates will never say anything." Then he lowered his voice, "It's just that you are disguised as a man, princess, I'm afraid you have to cover your pierced ears first. If you are caught If a caring person like me sees it, it’s not good.”
Zhuang Han blushed, and said angrily in his heart, you also know that you have a heart?He raised his hand and touched his earlobe, yes, he was disturbed by the matter of the master recently, so he forgot about it.
Shen Qing smiled complacently, and Zhuang Han twitched the corners of his mouth. He couldn't help admiring his thoughtfulness in his heart. After so many days in the army, no one else noticed it. On the contrary, he rarely met him, so he could tell at a glance; it seems It's not unreasonable for Brother Wu to plan to keep this person.
Zhuang Han stabilized his emotions and said, "General Shen, I heard that you are an important general in the imperial court. Dare I ask General Shen, is there any chance of winning this trip to the capital to rescue my master?"
"This..." Shen Qing frowned, "If the imperial court just wanted to behead some of the rebels, then it would be much easier for us to rescue them; but I'm afraid they made noise on purpose to lure snakes out of their holes, with other purposes."
"No purpose?"
"En." Shen Qing nodded, "Anyway, let's not be careful."
"If you hurry up tomorrow, you will arrive in Kyoto in the evening. I hope General Shen will take care of you when the time comes."
Shen Qing said, "Princess, you are being polite. It is my duty to protect the concubine and rescue the master of the concubine."
Zhuang Han said, "Although I read military books, if I really want to lead troops, I am far less experienced than General Shen. Therefore, I hope General Shen can help me rescue my master and the others tomorrow."
"That's natural, the subordinates will definitely do their best." Shen Qing slightly bowed his head and saluted.
Zhuang Han stood up, looked into the distance, and said calmly, "I don't know what will happen tomorrow?"
Shen Qing also stood up, "Forgive me for speaking bluntly, no matter whether you succeed in saving people tomorrow, the princess must take care of her own safety."
Zhuang Han lowered his head, smiled bitterly, and said, "I will. Thank you, General Shen."
……
Before the sun rose the next day, they got on their horses and hurried on the road, and felt outside the city of Kyoto in the evening.
Zhuang Han said, "We need to wait for a while, until the sky is completely dark, and go straight to the city under the cover of night, so as not to be discovered."
Shen Qing nodded.
The sky quickly darkened, and the whole world was shrouded in blackness. Zhuang Han led the small team and headed straight for the sky prison under the cover of night.
Arrived at the destination, lurking in a hidden place, Shen Qing said, "This prison is the place where the imperial court's felons are detained. Inside and outside are the Imperial Forest Army, all elite soldiers of the imperial court. Your master and the others are trapped here, and Chu Shang will watch over them." .”
Zhuang Han raised his eyebrows slightly, and then returned to normal, "Then what are our chances of winning if we go straight in?"
"Excuse me, but we only have No. 30 people. If we force ourselves to break in, I'm afraid it will be... more ominous."
Hearing this, Zhuang Han took a deep breath, thought for a while, looked at the gate of the prison and said, "Tomorrow is the day of beheading, so we must rescue Master and the others today."
"But Wangfei, look at the Imperial Forest Army patrolling back and forth. If I guessed correctly, they must have expected that we would come to rob the prison."
Zhuang Han looked at the group of imperial guards and asked, "General Shen, you used to be a general of the imperial court. Do you know any secret passages in this prison, where you can sneak in secretly?"
"No, actually it's easy to get in and hard to get out of the dungeon." Shen Qing said seriously, "Even if you break in, I don't know if you can get out safely."
Qi'an on the side said, "Master, you are outside to help, and we will bring you in. If you really can't get out, master, leave us alone and go first."
Zhuang Han sneered, "Xiao Anzi, since I'm here, I don't intend to be afraid. Even if it's a dragon's pool and a tiger's den, I have to fight hard."
After hearing this, Shen Qing looked at his profile, was stunned and couldn't say a word, and thought to herself, what a woman who doesn't give way to her husband!
Gritting his teeth, "Okay, this subordinate will accompany the princess to the end!"
As they spoke, the two looked at each other and smiled, and then the sword light flashed, and the sound of fighting immediately resounded in the dark night; but seeing the shadows of swords and swords in the dark night, it was surprising that the so-called Royal Forest Army was nothing more than this, and the entire army was wiped out within a few strokes.
Soon Zhuang Han and the others made a way out, leaving some people guarding the gate of the prison, and then the remaining part of the people and Zhuang Han and the others broke straight into the prison.
Entering the dungeon, there are many iron doors, and there is a dark corridor. Zhuang Han intuitively told that the master and the others are locked at the end of this corridor, so he didn't care about it, and went straight to the corridor. It went well, no one was guarding the prison, but Zhuang Han felt faintly uneasy in his heart; but at this time, he didn't have time to think about it, the passage became darker and damper as he walked, and even the walls were leaking cold air, if he wasn't holding a torch, he wouldn't be here at all. Can't see the road ahead.
"Master, I am at the front and you are at the back." Qian ran to the front and frowned.
Zhuang Han's heart warmed, and he said, "Little Anzi, it's fine."
After walking for not long, he stopped in a brighter place, Zhuang Han was taken aback, his heart tightened by the scene in front of him.
"Master!" Immediately exclaimed, he ran forward and hugged Tai Xuan who was tied to the torture rack. When he touched him, Tai Xuan cried out in pain.
Taixuan was tied to the rack, with scars and blood all over his body, and the place where he was whipped was shocking.
He slowly opened his eyes, saw Zhuang Han in front of him, and called out in surprise, "Han'er, you are here."
"Master, Han'er is late." Zhuang Han quickly rescued his master, and then supported him, "Where are Mama Zhang and the others?"
Taixuan pointed weakly in one direction, Qi'an and Shen Qing rushed in with others, and quickly rescued Mama Zhang and others.
"Master." Zhang Ma said in surprise, and went straight to Zhuang Han's side, helping him to support Taixuan.
Zhuang Han nodded, gave Mama Zhang a comforting look, and then ordered, "Let's get out of here quickly, the rescue went so well this time, I'm afraid there may be a trap."
A group of people walked out of the dungeon while talking, but what was surprising was that the exit passage seemed to be different from the entry passage.
Zhuang Han suddenly stopped and said, "General Shen."
Shen Qing stopped and turned around, "The subordinate is here."
"Are we going the wrong way?"
Shen Qing held up the torch and looked around, "Why? Isn't this the way we came here?"
Zhuang Han didn't speak, held up the torch and looked around. It was indeed the same as when he came here, but he always felt that it was different. He squatted down, held up the torch to shine on the ground, stretched out his hand to touch the ground, and then looked at his fingers. At that time, it was covered with dust, Zhuang Han frowned deeply.
"Brother Shen, let's go quickly, otherwise we won't be able to get out when the imperial army comes." Shen Qing urged.
"Get out?" Zhuang Han stood up with a heavy expression on his face, "I'm afraid that the further we go, the harder it will be for us to get out."
Hearing this, everyone present was taken aback, and Shen Qing was also taken aback.
Zhuang Han continued, "General Shen, you are worthy of being a talent valued by the court. Even though your parents were under house arrest by the King of Wu, you still refused to serve him; if I guessed correctly, this road is not the way we came in. It is a passage into the land of the dead."
After hearing this, Shen Qing staggered back a step, "You..."
"Shen Qing, in fact, before I entered this prison, I had a little doubt, but I chose to believe in you, because I already regarded you as our friend and colleague, but I didn't expect to come here, and I realized that I was You are a friend, but you treat me as an enemy."
Shen Qing lowered her head, feeling a little ashamed, "Shen Qing is ashamed, the concubine has misunderstood me; I am a general of the imperial court, and I must not do things that betray my trust and seek glory. Even if my parents are under house arrest, I will do my duty. Protect the emperor."
Zhuang Han snorted coldly, "I hope the emperor you are loyal to is a wise king."
Shen Qing also said angrily, "Don't talk about how wise King Wu is. Didn't he also raise troops to revolt for his own ambition, regardless of the common people in this world?"
Zhuang Han closed his eyes, "That person, even though it's wrong to plot rebellion, but his wish is that the people in the world will no longer suffer from hunger, cold and homelessness, and that's enough."
"Even if that person said that he is a terrible person who does not care about people's feelings and does not care about people's feelings, do you think he is right?"
Zhuang Han didn't make a sound, and after a while, he turned to Shen Qing and said seriously, "Yes."
"Then, if he also uses tricks and schemes against you, will you forgive me?" Shen Qing asked tentatively when she thought about Wu Wenxuan ordering herself to kill Master Zhuang Han.
Zhuang Han's expression did not change, because he thought in his heart that Wu Wenxuan would not treat him like this, so he said lightly, "You are worrying too much, Brother Wu would not treat me like that."
Shen Qing took a deep breath, and suddenly felt that the person in front of him was too innocent, and he believed in a person too much.
Shen Qing smiled wryly, and asked, "I don't understand something, how did the concubine find out that this road is not the one she came from?"
Zhuang Han said expressionlessly, "Today there is a layer of untouched dust on the road. If it were the road we came in, it is reasonable to say that the dust would have been trampled by footprints, but this has not, so I conclude that this Not a way out, but a dead end."
"Papa papa!" Chu Shang led a large pair of men and horses, blocking Zhuang Han's path. There were people in front and behind, and iron walls on the left and right. There were countless figures swaying.
After Chu Shang applauded, "Second Miss Zhuang, oh no, it should be Mr. Zhuang who is really observant, which is admirable."
"Chu Shang?!" Zhuang Han frowned.
Zhuang Han was very worried about the safety of his master, Zhang Ma and the people in Miluzhai, but he really didn't know how to ask Wu Wenxuan to borrow troops from him to save his master and them.
Although he knew that Wu Wenxuan would send him a team, but these soldiers were for future battles, how could he let himself break the military discipline, after thinking about it, he gave up.

All of a sudden, my mind was flustered, and I hurried forward to ask for blessings, "When did it happen?"

"He's not your master, and you've always been hostile to them, of course you won't be worried!" Zhuang Han blurted out in a hurry.
Wu Wenxuan was startled, looked at Zhuang Han and sighed heavily, stepped forward slowly, and hugged him in his arms, "Hanhan... I'm sorry, I didn't take your feelings into consideration... That's right, if my own master suffers I’m sure I’m going to be so anxious about things like this.”

There were also two lieutenants who went with them, as well as the personal eunuch Qi An.

After hearing this, Zhuang Han was taken aback, and turned to look at him, "General Shen, what are you talking about?"
Shen Qing lowered her head slightly, "Princess, I recognized you a long time ago, don't worry, my subordinates won't talk nonsense."
Zhuang Han smiled awkwardly, "General Shen..."
"Hey, princess, don't be afraid, don't worry, your subordinates will never say anything." Then he lowered his voice, "It's just that you are disguised as a man, princess, I'm afraid you have to cover your pierced ears first. If you are caught If a caring person like me sees it, it’s not good.”
Zhuang Han blushed, and said angrily in his heart, you also know that you have a heart?He raised his hand and touched his earlobe, yes, he was disturbed by the matter of the master recently, so he forgot about it.
Shen Qing smiled complacently, and Zhuang Han twitched the corners of his mouth. He couldn't help admiring his thoughtfulness in his heart. After so many days in the army, no one else noticed it. On the contrary, he rarely met him, so he could tell at a glance; it seems It's not unreasonable for Brother Wu to plan to keep this person.
Zhuang Han stabilized his emotions and said, "General Shen, I heard that you are an important general in the imperial court. Dare I ask General Shen, is there any chance of winning this trip to the capital to rescue my master?"
"This..." Shen Qing frowned, "If the imperial court just wanted to behead some of the rebels, then it would be much easier for us to rescue them; but I'm afraid they made noise on purpose to lure snakes out of their holes, with other purposes."
"No purpose?"
"En." Shen Qing nodded, "Anyway, let's not be careful."
"If you hurry up tomorrow, you will arrive in Kyoto in the evening. I hope General Shen will take care of you when the time comes."
Shen Qing said, "Princess, you are being polite. It is my duty to protect the concubine and rescue the master of the concubine."
Zhuang Han said, "Although I read military books, if I really want to lead troops, I am far less experienced than General Shen. Therefore, I hope General Shen can help me rescue my master and the others tomorrow."
"That's natural, the subordinates will definitely do their best." Shen Qing slightly bowed his head and saluted.
Zhuang Han stood up, looked into the distance, and said calmly, "I don't know what will happen tomorrow?"
Shen Qing also stood up, "Forgive me for speaking bluntly, no matter whether you succeed in saving people tomorrow, the princess must take care of her own safety."
Zhuang Han lowered his head, smiled bitterly, and said, "I will. Thank you, General Shen."
……
Before the sun rose the next day, they got on their horses and hurried on the road, and felt outside the city of Kyoto in the evening.
Zhuang Han said, "We need to wait for a while, until the sky is completely dark, and go straight to the city under the cover of night, so as not to be discovered."
Shen Qing nodded.
The sky quickly darkened, and the whole world was shrouded in blackness. Zhuang Han led the small team and headed straight for the sky prison under the cover of night.
Arrived at the destination, lurking in a hidden place, Shen Qing said, "This prison is the place where the imperial court's felons are detained. Inside and outside are the Imperial Forest Army, all elite soldiers of the imperial court. Your master and the others are trapped here, and Chu Shang will watch over them." .”
Zhuang Han raised his eyebrows slightly, and then returned to normal, "Then what are our chances of winning if we go straight in?"
"Excuse me, but we only have No. 30 people. If we force ourselves to break in, I'm afraid it will be... more ominous."
Hearing this, Zhuang Han took a deep breath, thought for a while, looked at the gate of the prison and said, "Tomorrow is the day of beheading, so we must rescue Master and the others today."
"But Wangfei, look at the Imperial Forest Army patrolling back and forth. If I guessed correctly, they must have expected that we would come to rob the prison."
Zhuang Han looked at the group of imperial guards and asked, "General Shen, you used to be a general of the imperial court. Do you know any secret passages in this prison, where you can sneak in secretly?"
"No, actually it's easy to get in and hard to get out of the dungeon." Shen Qing said seriously, "Even if you break in, I don't know if you can get out safely."
Qi'an on the side said, "Master, you are outside to help, and we will bring you in. If you really can't get out, master, leave us alone and go first."
Zhuang Han sneered, "Xiao Anzi, since I'm here, I don't intend to be afraid. Even if it's a dragon's pool and a tiger's den, I have to fight hard."
After hearing this, Shen Qing looked at his profile, was stunned and couldn't say a word, and thought to herself, what a woman who doesn't give way to her husband!
Gritting his teeth, "Okay, this subordinate will accompany the princess to the end!"
As they spoke, the two looked at each other and smiled, and then the sword light flashed, and the sound of fighting immediately resounded in the dark night; but seeing the shadows of swords and swords in the dark night, it was surprising that the so-called Royal Forest Army was nothing more than this, and the entire army was wiped out within a few strokes.
Soon Zhuang Han and the others made a way out, leaving some people guarding the gate of the prison, and then the remaining part of the people and Zhuang Han and the others broke straight into the prison.
Entering the dungeon, there are many iron doors, and there is a dark corridor. Zhuang Han intuitively told that the master and the others are locked at the end of this corridor, so he didn't care about it, and went straight to the corridor. It went well, no one was guarding the prison, but Zhuang Han felt faintly uneasy in his heart; but at this time, he didn't have time to think about it, the passage became darker and damper as he walked, and even the walls were leaking cold air, if he wasn't holding a torch, he wouldn't be here at all. Can't see the road ahead.
"Master, I am at the front and you are at the back." Qian ran to the front and frowned.
Zhuang Han's heart warmed, and he said, "Little Anzi, it's fine."
After walking for not long, he stopped in a brighter place, Zhuang Han was taken aback, his heart tightened by the scene in front of him.
"Master!" Immediately exclaimed, he ran forward and hugged Tai Xuan who was tied to the torture rack. When he touched him, Tai Xuan cried out in pain.
Taixuan was tied to the rack, with scars and blood all over his body, and the place where he was whipped was shocking.
He slowly opened his eyes, saw Zhuang Han in front of him, and called out in surprise, "Han'er, you are here."
"Master, Han'er is late." Zhuang Han quickly rescued his master, and then supported him, "Where are Mama Zhang and the others?"
Taixuan pointed weakly in one direction, Qi'an and Shen Qing rushed in with others, and quickly rescued Mama Zhang and others.
"Master." Zhang Ma said in surprise, and went straight to Zhuang Han's side, helping him to support Taixuan.
Zhuang Han nodded, gave Mama Zhang a comforting look, and then ordered, "Let's get out of here quickly, the rescue went so well this time, I'm afraid there may be a trap."
A group of people walked out of the dungeon while talking, but what was surprising was that the exit passage seemed to be different from the entry passage.
Zhuang Han suddenly stopped and said, "General Shen."
Shen Qing stopped and turned around, "The subordinate is here."
"Are we going the wrong way?"
Shen Qing held up the torch and looked around, "Why? Isn't this the way we came here?"
Zhuang Han didn't speak, held up the torch and looked around. It was indeed the same as when he came here, but he always felt that it was different. He squatted down, held up the torch to shine on the ground, stretched out his hand to touch the ground, and then looked at his fingers. At that time, it was covered with dust, Zhuang Han frowned deeply.
"Brother Shen, let's go quickly, otherwise we won't be able to get out when the imperial army comes." Shen Qing urged.
"Get out?" Zhuang Han stood up with a heavy expression on his face, "I'm afraid that the further we go, the harder it will be for us to get out."
Hearing this, everyone present was taken aback, and Shen Qing was also taken aback.
Zhuang Han continued, "General Shen, you are worthy of being a talent valued by the court. Even though your parents were under house arrest by the King of Wu, you still refused to serve him; if I guessed correctly, this road is not the way we came in. It is a passage into the land of the dead."
After hearing this, Shen Qing staggered back a step, "You..."
"Shen Qing, in fact, before I entered this prison, I had a little doubt, but I chose to believe in you, because I already regarded you as our friend and colleague, but I didn't expect to come here, and I realized that I was You are a friend, but you treat me as an enemy."
Shen Qing lowered her head, feeling a little ashamed, "Shen Qing is ashamed, the concubine has misunderstood me; I am a general of the imperial court, and I must not do things that betray my trust and seek glory. Even if my parents are under house arrest, I will do my duty. Protect the emperor."
Zhuang Han snorted coldly, "I hope the emperor you are loyal to is a wise king."
Shen Qing also said angrily, "Don't talk about how wise King Wu is. Didn't he also raise troops to revolt for his own ambition, regardless of the common people in this world?"
Zhuang Han closed his eyes, "That person, even though it's wrong to plot rebellion, but his wish is that the people in the world will no longer suffer from hunger, cold and homelessness, and that's enough."
"Even if that person said that he is a terrible person who does not care about people's feelings and does not care about people's feelings, do you think he is right?"
Zhuang Han didn't make a sound, and after a while, he turned to Shen Qing and said seriously, "Yes."
"Then, if he also uses tricks and schemes against you, will you forgive me?" Shen Qing asked tentatively when she thought about Wu Wenxuan ordering herself to kill Master Zhuang Han.
Zhuang Han's expression did not change, because he thought in his heart that Wu Wenxuan would not treat him like this, so he said lightly, "You are worrying too much, Brother Wu would not treat me like that."
Shen Qing took a deep breath, and suddenly felt that the person in front of him was too innocent, and he believed in a person too much.
Shen Qing smiled wryly, and asked, "I don't understand something, how did the concubine find out that this road is not the one she came from?"
Zhuang Han said expressionlessly, "Today there is a layer of untouched dust on the road. If it were the road we came in, it is reasonable to say that the dust would have been trampled by footprints, but this has not, so I conclude that this Not a way out, but a dead end."
"Papa papa!" Chu Shang led a large pair of men and horses, blocking Zhuang Han's path. There were people in front and behind, and iron walls on the left and right. There were countless figures swaying.
After Chu Shang applauded, "Second Miss Zhuang, oh no, it should be Mr. Zhuang who is really observant, which is admirable."
"Chu Shang?!" Zhuang Han frowned.
