Chapter 56 Imprisonment
"Yes... yes." Master Fu didn't dare to lift his head, after hearing the order, he turned his head and started to run.
Hua Shijun called him again: "Wait."
The cold sweat flowed down again. The head of the palace, who seldom saw a member of the royal family in his life and sighed for his lack of official career luck, finally realized what it means to be with the king like a tiger, and how no amount of wealth and wealth can be worth the safety of his family and life.
Trembling and turning around, Hua Shijun's expression softened a little, and he looked at Bi Ran who seemed to be sleeping in his arms.
"Let the palace know that when Bi Ran's health improves, I will lead the team back to the palace."
This sentence really shocked Bi Ran, he suddenly opened his eyes, and grabbed Hua Shijun's arm.
"Back to the palace?"
"Your situation is not suitable for long-distance travel." Looking down at his pale face, he said, "Before the journey is not far, turn back earlier and return to the palace to recuperate."
Bi Ran was dumbfounded, and the fingertips gripping his arm tightened convulsively.In a low voice: "...I won't go back."
"Why?"
"I... don't know how to face the king." With a thought, he quickly found a sounding excuse for himself, "The king is so looking forward to the birth of this eldest grandson...but because of Bi Ran's negligence Carelessness..." The voice mourned, half acting, half truly heartbroken, "And Qianqiu, those clothes that she specially sewed for the children... I have no face to face."
"It's not your fault, it's Xiaoyi—" the conversation stopped abruptly, involving the closest siblings, Hua Shijun froze for a long time before slowing down, "There will always be another child. You don't need to blame yourself at all, The fault is not on you. Father Wang and Qianqiu can forgive me."
There will always be children?
Bi Ran laughed silently in his heart.
No, that's not possible.
After he leaves the Flower Demon Country, meeting him again is a matter of life and death.
He softened his tone, his eyes showed sorrow, and his expression was distressed: "Shi Jun, don't force me to go back to the palace. Let me be quiet for a while. Even if I go back to the palace, how do you want me to face the Second Highness? The Second Highness has nothing to do with me." There is no hatred, why target me; just target me, why do you plan to murder a child who has not yet died? Don't you want to find out?"
He grabbed Hua Shijun's sleeve tightly, and begged in a mournful voice: "Lu Xiaonian has already destroyed your friendship with the Second Highness, and taken away the child in my womb. I don't want every step to be calculated by him, and every wish to be taken away by him." Stop it. Proceed according to the original plan, patrolling the border as usual, okay?"
The rare fragile expression fell in the man's eyes, arousing the man's thoughts.
Hua Shijun was slightly shaken. He wanted Bi Ran to return to the palace because the conditions for raising generals in the palace were better than those outside the palace, and the medicinal materials and conditioning methods were easier to find than outside the palace.Moreover, after returning to the palace, the turmoil caused by the second brother Hua Moyi can also be investigated in a more detailed and objective manner under the attention of the acquaintances of the Ministry of Criminal Justice...
The hand that grabbed his sleeve tightened again, and Bi Ran pleaded, "Please."
Hua Shijun hesitated, "...we will discuss this matter later."
****************
Since the establishment of the prison cell, no one has been locked up in a serious manner. Hua Moyi and Lu Xiaonian probably used it for the first time in history.Director Fu temporarily transferred a group of people from the palace guards to serve as jailers, responsible for guarding His Highness the Second Highness and the "fugitive prisoners".
The floor of His Royal Highness's cell was covered with thick straw, and there was a thin blanket to cover him when he slept. The meals sent by the jailer included cakes and soup.Although the living conditions were significantly reduced, compared to Lu Xiaonian, Hua Moyi's life was quite comfortable.
The floor of Lu Xiaonian's cell was bare yellow earth, there was only a small ventilation hole in the upper left corner of the entire cell, and light could hardly come in.The food was even more miserable. Overnight steamed buns, rotten water, and unpalatable pickles were thrown in with the plate when it was time to eat, and the blunt sound of the hard food hitting the ground could be heard.
Lu Xiaonian picked up the steamed bun that was so hard that it could be used as a cold weapon, thinking with emotion that his father Jin Xixin was also in jail for a while.Although he didn't hear his father take the initiative to mention that period of prison, but according to Lu Zishu, he seemed to be living in a miserable life, and was almost dragged out and beheaded in the end.
──If it wasn't for your father and me to help in time, I'm afraid that you and your father will be separated forever if they fail to meet each other.When Lu Zishu said that, he gave the monk who was watching his nose and his heart a hard look.He is obviously tall and has profound Buddhist power, but Yumu's head can't turn around, and he won't run away even if he is given a chance.
If Lu Zishu knew that 20 years later his son would inherit his father's career and be imprisoned because of his beauty, I don't know what expression he would show on his face...
Lu Xiaonian thought silently, forget it, at least when he had to run away, he would still be a good guy and run away first.
He silently looked at the steamed bun in his hand for a moment, sure that he would be better off not eating it than eating it, and put the steamed bun and pickles back on the dirty plate.
Hua Moyi called him from the other side: "Little boy."
Lu Xiaonian leaned over.
Hua Moyi tried her best to stretch her arms, and passed a piece of steamed bread that was still warm through the fence, "Take it."
"...If I eat your food, what will you do?"
The Second Highness stretched his arms a little further. Although he tried to get as close to the cell as possible, there was still a slight distance between the two.If Lu Xiaonian didn't reach out to pick it up, even if Hua Moyi wanted to throw it, she might not be able to throw the steamed bun onto the floor of his cell.
Hua Moyi snorted, "I see you haven't eaten for two days, I'm afraid you'll starve to death."
"It doesn't matter, when I was practicing before, I practiced bigu for a period of time." Lu Xiaonian said, "Even if I don't eat rice for half a month, I won't die."
Hua Moyi said angrily: "That's why I said that you Buddhists just like to torment yourselves. It's nothing to harm your own body properly!" He waved his arms that were exposed outside the fence, and his handsome face was almost pressed against the fence, "My lord I don't like to see people being tortured the most, so you have to go home and go to Bigu, don't be in front of me."
As he said this, his stomach growled.His Highness and Lu Xiaonian were taken aback at the same time, Hua Moyi's face turned slightly red.
Lu Xiaonian glanced behind him, and found that the food that the jailer brought to Hua Moyi was neatly arranged and untouched. "...Did you not eat too? Did you save all the food for today?"
"I, I didn't save all of it for you to eat." Blushing quibbles, "I originally only planned to give you a steamed bun, and then I turned around and ate mine!"
Lu Xiaonian looked at him deeply, Hua Moyi's face turned redder, and he muttered in his heart, bastard, why is it so complicated for me to do a good thing!
He pursed his lips, and simply didn't hide it: "You were put in prison because of me, and there is no reason to let you starve alone. You have been hungry for two days, and my son will at most It’s fair to be hungry for a day.”
"You said it the other way around. It was because of my persistence that you offended Bi Ran, and you were framed by him and put in jail."
Lu Xiaonian said so, but Hua Moyi rolled his eyes as if he didn't hear his words: "Young mother-in-law, little boy, my son's arm hurts when you lift it up, take it quickly!"
The two people's voices startled the jailer, and he ran over with a lamp in his hand, and saw the Second Highness and the court prisoner were separated by a wall, talking quite close to each other.
The relationship between the two of them is really good, even being imprisoned in a big prison can't affect the enthusiasm of the two of them whispering.The jailer had seen them whispering to each other countless times. If they were imprisoned in the same cell, the Second Highness would have to share the quilt and the straw for sleeping with this beautiful prisoner.
The jailer coughed and reminded Hua Moyi: "Second, Second Highness, that... the food is specially prepared for His Highness..."
Hua Moyi ignored him.
"Second Highness, imperial convicts are treated like imperial convicts, and cannot be compared with the royal family..."
A sudden voice interrupted the jailer's persuasive dissuasion: "──If he wants to be a good person and serve foreigners, let him go. Starting tomorrow, the food portion will be halved for him."
Hua Moyi was startled, she couldn't help but let go of her fingers, Lu Xiaonian quickly stretched out her hand to catch the white flour steamed bun that almost fell to the ground.
Hua Moyi glared at him, and said in his eyes that he took it long ago and nothing happened!The monk is hypocritical! !
Accompanied by the head of the palace, Hua Shijun slowly walked into the cell, the jailer who was standing in front of the cell door hurriedly stepped aside so that His Royal Highness could inspect the prisoners.
Hua Moyi hurriedly withdrew her hand from the fence, put her back behind her, and shouted loudly: "...Brother."
Hua Shijun didn't answer him, but stood still in front of his cell door, without even looking at Lu Xiaonian in the next cell.
With a burning gaze, he scanned the cell where Hua Moyi lived, and then moved his gaze to Hua Moyi.
His second younger brother has always loved cleanliness and beauty, his body is always clean and fragrant, he is dressed in light blue, elegant and gorgeous.
In the past few days in prison, there was no room or space for him to tidy up. His originally smooth, ice-blue long hair was decadent like a sunflower that hadn’t seen the sun for a long time, and it was scattered behind him in a mess; Although a lot of straw was deliberately brushed off, it still showed the downcast appearance of Mr. Pian Pianjia.
Except for those demonic purple eyes, which were still shining brightly, the eyes that met him were calm and fearless, and there was no guilt or guilt for plotting against Bi Ran two days ago, causing the innocent fetus to miscarry.
Hua Shijun's heart ached, and he said in a deep voice: "Hua Moyi, you have been imprisoned for several days, but you have no intention of repenting? Do you know how big a mistake you have made?"
From the gloomy look on his face, Hua Moyi guessed about eight or nine points, and was stunned for a long time: "Brother Ran... Brother Ran's child is really gone? Didn't the imperial doctors save the child?"
Hua Shijun clenched his fists by his side, his eyes turned cold: "Just like you—" He turned his gaze, and finally looked at Lu Xiaonian who was solemnly looking aside, with his lips tightly closed, "—as you wished with this foreign traitor. Isn’t it? Bengong watched you grow up, but I didn’t know that you can be so cruel as a servant, even if you hurt someone with your sword energy, before you deliberately put red flowers in Biran’s soup bowl──Hua Moyi, you are so heartbroken! How can you bear it!!"
"Safflower?" The Second Highness was astonished and took a step forward involuntarily, but was blocked by the strict fence.He asked anxiously: "What does the red flower mean? Big brother... Big brother, I don't understand what you are talking about."
"Safflower residue was found in Bi Ran's soup bowl. Only you and Bi Ran were the only ones in the palace who touched that bowl." His Highness looked colder, repeating this fact made the always calm person speak with a tinge of coldness. He trembled slightly, "You can't quibble with Ben Gong, saying that Bi Ran himself put the safflower into the bowl to poison his own flesh and blood in his belly?"
Hua Moyi's eyes widened, and she was unable to utter a single word for a while, her heart felt chilly, from the soles of her feet to her back.
It's not just him, Lu Xiaonian in the cell next to him felt an inexplicable chill that couldn't be shaken off.The cultivator squeezed the steamed bun tightly in his hand, his expression became more and more condensed.
──When Bi Ran appeared in the main hall that day, his face was as white as paper, and his behavior was extremely weak. It turned out that he had already seen through their attempts before he stepped into the dark situation of the sword dance, so he deliberately subdued the red flower , use the fetus in the womb to put everything in one basket──! ! !
He actually took revenge on the blood of his predecessors, and escaped from the flower demon country with a landscape map in his body. He regarded it more important than his and Hua Shijun's children, and more important than his own flesh and blood.
The soles of Hua Moyi's feet were a little weak, and the fact that Bi Ran had taken safflower to conceive was more shocking than him coming up against the sword's edge.Now I recall why Bi Ran deliberately asked him to serve the fish soup for him. It turned out that such a deep and sinister design was implied...
But, Bi Ran, how can you, how can you be so cruel?
That is your own child, not a bargaining chip that you bet on life and death...
Hua Shijun watched Hua Moyi's suddenly pale face, suppressed the pain in his heart, and said coldly, "The evidence is convincing, do you have anything to refute?"
