Nirvana In Fire

The heavenly cell is one of the most heavily guarded cells, but being vigilant does not mean that the environment here is the worst. On the contrary, it is quite spacious and clean, except that the walls are thicker than the other cells and the bars are multiple and two-storey.

Xia Jiang sat on the corner of his cell, closing his eyes and recalling the whole process of his failure. He had been immersed in the official field for decades and had acted with great thoughtfulness until now, when he had never encountered such a tragedy. On the face of it, it seems that he was only accidentally betrayed by his apprentice, but now that he has been betrayed, he has not been able to convince Leung Emperor of the existence of such betrayal, but it is absolutely the result of the design of the High Man.

Liang Emperor's trust in the suspension department has now dropped to the ice point, and he is angry that he is not even willing to see Xia Jiang in person. He only assigns Meng Si to come here regularly to ask if the former First Lord is willing to confess guilt.

Although this is what he always asks, in fact, even Xia Jiang can't confess guilt because he can't give up his guard at all. Not to mention the crime of trapping the prince, confessing is also a dead end.

Once the imperial authority is involved, Liang Emperor's means of disposal are harsh, others do not know, Xia Jiang is clear.

The humid, moldy air in the cell passed between his nose, Xia Jiang biting his teeth, thinking of the young man who was bright and fragile and crushed, but strong and cold. When Su Zhe's name first came to his ear, he didn't care too much. He thought it was just another generation of ambitions that wanted to move from the river and lake to the temple hall, and not necessarily much energy. More importantly, he was really not very interested in the battle to seize it. It doesn't matter who won the prince or the king of honor. The suspension division is always the suspension division, and there is nothing to worry about.

But then the situation suddenly changed, Jing Wang was born, and the rising momentum became stronger and stronger. Xia Jiang felt a sense of crisis, so he began to seriously cope with this change. But what never occurred to me was that, just because he despised a hidden river and lake man, he failed and lost the victory that had been held in his hand, to this point.

Xia Jiang is no longer thinking about how to bring down King Jing. He is thinking about how to live, especially if there is no answer at the second half when the two folds are handed over.

At this point, the iron lock outside the cell sounded and the door was opened and opened at will. However, Xia Jiang did not move the idea of flight escape at half an hour, because those who dare to open the door in such a big way must be sincere.

Ranked No. 2 in the rankings of the Langhuan masters, Daliang No. 1 brave man, Sincerely.

The forbidden president brought a new ink pen, which clearly means the emperor is not satisfied with the suspect's latest confession.

“Xia Jiang, Your Majesty's patience is limited, and if you do not confess guilt by now, Your Majesty will only be given a heavier punishment.” Holding his chest with his sincere hands and cold tunnels.

“It's already a capital crime. Where else can we go?” Xia Jiang stood up against the stone wall, "President Montague, why does His Majesty not believe that I compromised Chen Chen? ”

Meng Si said with no expression: “Do you have any basis for identifying Mae Chang-su as an old Qi Wang? ”

“He admitted it himself...”

“If you were an old Kiwang, would you admit it yourself? Besides, for no reason, why did he take the initiative to show himself to you as an old Qi Wang? Is Mae Chang Su Xiang stupid enough to look for a dead man?” Meng Si chuckled, “If you want His Majesty to believe, don't climb randomly and tell me the truth, such as handing over the guard. ”

“I don't have the guard. How can I hand it over? ”

“If you don't turn it in, you don't confess? ”

As on previous occasions, Xia Jiang was caught in a strange circle. She felt like she was going mad and tried to take a few breaths to calm down. She said: "Master Meng, I admit to moving the guard to the Da Lisi Temple and deliberately placing the robber in the suspension department is somewhat ill-intentioned, but Summer Winter said that all the things I instructed her to do were false, Your Majesty can't be biased! ”

Meng earnestly looked at him for a long time, his eyes were cold, “Xia Jiang, thanks to summer and winter has been excusing you... to this day, if you dare to do anything, you still have to put the blame on your own apprentice. His Majesty gave you the opportunity to argue, how can it be said that it is bigotry? Summer Winter is clearly your own lover. Why would she frame you? ”

The muscles on Xia Jiang's face couldn't help but twitch. If you ask him sincerely, it is part of his most difficult to explain. Everyone knows that Xia Winter's relationship with him has not previously sent out any news of the Master's discord. After the accident, you can say that the two of them have turned their faces. If you change your mind, no one will have to question you. Not to mention why you turned your face, that's hard to say.

“It doesn't matter if you plead guilty or not, if you want to drag on more time," continued Meng Si, “your two junior emissaries have also confessed, you have instructed them to let the robbers into the suspension department without having to seriously resist. ”

“I did it for nothing! Didn't they say that we had gunpowder set up in the dungeon to kill these robbers? ”

“From the statement, no.” It sounds particularly desperate to hear a sincere, undulating voice, "I sealed the suspension section and found no trace of gunpowder in the dungeon. Summer Spring and Summer Autumn did not mention this in their confessions, do you have any other evidence of acquittal? ”

Xia River was white for a while. On the day of the incident, in order to encourage King Jing's boldness, he intentionally invited Summer Spring and Summer Autumn to go out. He did not need their cooperation. Of course, he did not inform them about the design of the gunpowder trap. After all, even Summer Winter would blow in together after the detonation of gunpowder. Even Summer Autumn would not say. Even Summer Spring, who had no blood ties with Summer Winter, after all, studied with her since she was a child. Without telling them, he was afraid of the external branches of the festival. Who knows, because of this, he didn't even have a personal ID now... But those two minors...

“Please return to Your Majesty, the confessions of the two junior emissaries are problematic, they know the most about gunpowder, they know that I am absolutely ready to kill the robbers...”

“Late," Meng sincerely and ruthlessly quenched Xia Jiang's last hope, "the two youthful palms only knew that you had your first life, and forgot that they were in charge of the imperial court, and when they were questioned, they said that they were only ordered, so they were not guilty. His Royal Highness reported this insanity to His Majesty, who naturally enraged and ordered forty canes in prison. They could not resist the past and were dead. ”

“Dead...” Yellow bean-sized sweat beads rolled down from Xia Jiang's forehead, he suddenly took two steps forward and asked, “How could it be His Royal Highness the King of Yu in the case? ”

“The case is special, His Majesty does not want to involve the Department. His Royal Highness hesitates to ignore his disability, but after all, he is a prince. What is so strange about assigning him? ”

Xia Jiang closed her eyes and felt like she was handcuffed to her limbs, unable to earn a living. Soon before, Yu Wang was very oppressed by Yu Wang over the matter of his concubine. If he wanted to pick this time to make an outrage, it would be perfectly normal. Perhaps that's the way things are in the world, the person you didn't even see when you gained momentum, may one day give you the worst blow, unexpectedly, you can't hide from it.

The look on the face of this man, who has been forced to despair, does not soften slightly, "Xia Jiang, you have today, is really your own cause, taste your own fruit. A suspense mirror of loss of trust makes it what it is to His Majesty, and you know best yourself, he doesn't want to hear about you anymore, and even I may not come back. You're dead, but it's not yet decided when to die, but you can't escape the fall. Until then, you're going to be in jail for a while. I think you should have more than just this debt. Before you die, it's fine. There's paper and ink. You think slowly, you don't have to take it to the coffin to become the sin of the next life. ”

Having said that, the Prohibited Army President never looked at Xia Jiang again, turned around and locked the door back, leaving the people inside with a dark space that was almost suffocating.

Leaving the Heavenly Room, Meng Xi did not go out immediately, but turned to the corridor to visit the summer and winter. The women are situated on the top floor with much better air flow and light. When Meng went in, Summer and Winter were standing in the middle of the cell, looking up at the pale sunlight coming from the high window, and hearing the sound of the cell door did not turn back.

“Lord Xia, someone asked me to see you. Are you okay?”

No answer in summer and winter. The sun shines on her face, her skin is clear and silky wrinkles are clear, and she squeezes her eyes as if counting the dust in the light. That state of pure calm is actually another kind of despair.

Meng Si suddenly felt like he had nothing to say. What can he comfort this woman with? Said someone would plead for her. Said her life was fine? After all the heartbreaking pain in her life, how could Summer Winter care about her own life and death...

After half a day of silence, Meng Si could only ask helplessly: "Lord Xia, do you have anything else you want to bring to whom?”.

Summer and winter finally slowly turned their gaze, the crystalline eyes slightly moved, “Chun and Autumn, what now? ”

“Oh, neither of them was there on the day of the incident, we can't assume that they were complicit, so it's probably dismissal, there will be some other punishment, it shouldn't be heavy...”

“And... what about him? ”

“He is the main culprit, without physiology.” Sincerely, there is no need to euphemize, “he deserved, Master Xia did not have to worry. ”

Summer and winter lowered their heads and laughed, “I won't worry, my heart is long gone, where can I hang it? ”

“Lord Xia, General Nie Feng has died without meditation. Please take good care of yourself before the truth snows. ”

Speaking of Nie Feng, Summer Winter's eyes flashed with pain. He lifted one hand voluntarily and slowly caressed the white hair on his forehead. Perhaps the easiest thing to do is just collapse: cry, escape, numbness, even death, all easier than biting your teeth. But she knew she could never choose that kind of relaxation.

Because she is the wife of Nie Feng, even though she is not in love, she also wishes the dead soul peace. She had to get that harsh truth and sue the deceased in front of his grave.

“Monsignor, please tell Sir that Summer Winter believes that he is not a camper and that Summer Winter believes that he can return justice to the dead. Until then, even though I was in exile, I could still support him and ask him not to distract me. ”

Meng Si bowed to her solemnly and changed her name, "Madame Nie, I must bring this to you. At that time, not only will the old case not disappear, but His Royal Highness King Jing has vowed to pursue it. Although there is no stigma on General Nie, after all, he is the cause of the Red Flame case, and General Nie's Ying Ling will be disturbed if he cannot clearly show all the truth in front of the people of the world. It's really hard to say when you will be able to accomplish this wish, and ask Mrs. Nie to be patient. ”

Summer and winter turned around and the light swept over her cheek, leaving a shadow on the side of her nose. She did not answer directly, but the silence and perseverance in her eyes had explained everything. Meng Xi also stopped talking and walked out of the cell.

Outside the Underworld, an old prison guard is hiding in the dark and looking this way, or he thinks he's hiding.

Cold size rooms are still empty, cold and lonely. Meng Si only hurried over there and walked away.

There is the last trace of King Ki, which many people wanted to end, but the banned army leader understands that this is far from a time to mourn.
