Sure enough, I couldn't bear it anymore.
They actually sent out the Imperial City Division, which only followed the ancestral law and was not affiliated with the Taicha.
Almost in an instant, Shen Nanbao got up from her bed. She gave Fengyue and Lu Kui a few instructions, not too much, just trivial matters. She also told them that if someone came to rape them, , and remember that you must grit your teeth and say you don’t even know.
When Feng Yue came over, she was so horrified that she turned pale when she said those words, "This, how can this happen? How can I feel like the disaster of the sky collapsing and the earth collapsing?"
Although Lv Kui's face looked similar, she was still calm. She nodded and said, "Sister, don't worry, we will take good care of the baby and keep it secret."
Shen Nanbao said thank you, and then hurried to the front hall.
As soon as he arrived at the front hall, he met Xiao Yichen's anxious gaze. Shen Nanbao nodded towards him, a very weighty move, as if to soothe his frightened heart.
It was at this moment that a purple robe embroidered with intricate gold patterns slipped past his eyes. Shen Nanbao was startled. He raised his head and met a pair of squinting eyes. The shadows under his eyes were as if he was hiding from a demon.
"Second girl, I have long admired your name."
There was a condescending tone in the long and loose tone, which made Shen Nanbao's heart beat with fear, and Xiao Yichen frowned fiercely, "No matter how famous the reputation is, it can't be as good as the Imperial City Secretary, let alone Huang Tiju." Your reputation.”
Huang Tiju glanced slightly, and the eyes that penetrated to his temples showed a glint like a razor blade, "We all work for the officials, Commander Xiao knows better than me, what is the worth of those reputations? "
Xiao Yichen wondered, "Is he an official or a saint?"
Huang Tiju paused and then smiled quickly, "The official has been ill recently, and the prince is young, so the saint will temporarily take over the power."
Xiao Yichen sat sideways on the chair, picked up a cup of tea in a leisurely manner, and said without looking at Huang Tiju: "Then let's wait for the official to recover before making a decision."
The powerful minister has been raped by the desire for power for a long time, and he is used to being a scornful figure. How can he tolerate others who are arrogant, even if that person is the prince of the county or the commander of the palace.
Huang Tiju raised his face, and a ferocious look passed over his furrowed face. His swollen eyes looked like a toad about to die. "In that case, I won't take any more rides. Someone came and grabbed Commander Xiao and Xiao Er." The girl will be admitted to the Imperial City Department together."
It was coming fiercely, almost as soon as a command was thrown to the ground, a huge group of Chazi swarmed in.
Before Shen Nanbao could react, someone grabbed his shoulder and pushed him straight to the ground, so that all he could see was Huang Tiju's black high-cut white thin-soled cloud-toe boots.
Huang Ti moved, and the ethereal cloud pattern slipped through the sky, shining with a dark light, "Be careful, don't make any noise, otherwise you will be blamed when the time comes, and you will slit your own throat to express your guilt." "
After saying this, there were a lot of voices saying yes.
Shen Nanbao wanted to take advantage of the opportunity to look at Xiao Yichen, but her eyes were suddenly covered by someone. She fell into the vast darkness and couldn't see anything. Only the series of fragmentary steps sounded in her ears.
People's fear of darkness is innate. Even if he had expected it, Shen Nanbao couldn't help but feel anxious at this moment, "Xiao Yichen..."
Xiao Yichen didn't hear her trembling voice. His fist clenched as he squeezed it. He stood up and took a few steps to hit Shen Nan Baochazi's forehead with his fist.
Huang Tiju narrowed his eyes, tilted his cloud-headed boots, threw away his reserve and stability, spread his hands widely, and made a predatory bird move. In an instant, he grabbed Xiao Yichen's arm, but his body was bumped into Xiao Yichen's arms. It knocked him back a few steps.
"Commander Xiao, I remember that you and I are both guarding officials, so I am very polite to you. Don't give me a toast without being punished with a fine wine, and provoke me again and again!"
There was a dull pain in his chest after being hit, but Xiao Yichen sneered over and over again without feeling anything, "Defend the official family? I only bow to the official family, but you may not be sure."
Huang Tiju opened his mouth and raised his voice, "Did you hear that? The Palace Chief looks down on our Imperial City Chief. In that case, don't dwell on those old friendships anymore. Just tie them up and leave!"
But who dares?
Xiao Yichen was not a scholar. He was able to reach the position of commander in front of the palace by relying on real materials that were punched into his flesh. In the imperial city, except for Huang Tiju who could compete with him, there was that one-sided Hu Zai in the Privy Council. When facing Xiao Yichen, he must think twice.
And this is why the saint sent Huang Tiju.
This is also the reason why I only grabbed Shen Nanbao just now.
Huang Ti raised the door to clear the door, then put down these words, and then said: "Please cooperate with Commander Xiao, otherwise I can't guarantee what will happen to Miss Xiao, and it's even harder to guarantee whether Commander Xiao can still place your head safely. On the neck.”
Xiao Yichen was not afraid of death, he was afraid of something unexpected happening to Shen Nanbao, so he simply delayed it for enough time, so he acted like he was being coerced and allowed the inspectors to tie him down.
When Shen Nanbao opened his eyes again, he was already in the Imperial City Prison.
This was the first time she was imprisoned. Just like what her grandfather had described, in a dark place where no light could be seen, every breath filled her lungs with a strong stench.
Without even looking, Shen Nanbao could imagine how much torture had occurred in this realm.
But……
Shen Nanbao looked around. In the dim light, there was only Huang Tiju in front of him and no one else.
Shen Nanbao couldn't help but said: "Where is he?"
Huang Tiju smiled and narrowed his eyes, "He is naturally where he should be. Miss Xiao, please don't worry too much."
As he said that, he tilted his head and glanced at her constantly. Seeing the vigilance on her face, he suddenly smiled and said, "Young lady, please don't mention me. I'm just curious, how can you be worthy of being so rigorously guarded by a saint? We will not hesitate to dispatch the Imperial City Division to arrest you."
Shen Nanbao's heart was pounding, but there was a frown on his face, "Didn't Huang Tiju hear the saint say this when he received the saint's order?"
A light flashed out of Huang Tiju's eyes, as if he was surprised by her sudden hardness, or someone else was shocked, but no matter what the reason was, it was not worth mentioning. After all, once he entered the Imperial City Division, he would risk his life. The explanation is here.
Then he quickly nodded and said: "I originally thought that the sage's strategy is not something that people like me can understand, but according to Miss Er, you put it like this, I am very surprised. Miss Xiao and Commander Xiao Such noble people, why do you have to take such a shameful step? It’s just a step, and you still have to make a fuss all over the capital. Aren’t you just waiting for the saint to arrest you?”
Hearing his words reveal the mystery, Shen Nanbao didn't panic at all. His eyelids drooped so much that Huang Tiju couldn't see the arc of the look in her eyes, "Huang Tiju, aren't you overjoyed?"
Huang Tiju was stunned for a moment, and his mouth responded faster than his brain, "We have never."
Shen Nanbao raised his head, his eyes brightened, "So, Huang Tiju, how do you know how changeable love is?"
This set of rhetoric is enough to bluff his subordinates, including the agents and surveyors, but how about bluffing him?
Do not overestimate your own capabilities.
Huang Tiju straightened up and looked at people with the same downcast eyes as before, "Have you not seen Miss Xiao Er's discipline training from the Imperial City Division? It's okay, we will see you soon. I hope Miss Xiao Er will also do the same by then." Now that he is so eloquent, I can better understand the shortcomings of our imperial city department's training."
After saying that, he stood up and walked out of the cell door. The officer immediately took a thick iron chain and fastened it to the wooden door.
When Huang Tiju walked away, Shen Nanbao felt as if he had just come out of a boiling oil pan, dripping oil all over his body, and there was a crispy crackling sound whenever he moved.
She couldn't help but lie on the ground, burying her head in the enclosed hands, closing her eyes, and closing her tears in her eyes.
To this day, at this moment, she asks herself if she is afraid? She was afraid.
But her fear was not that she would be tortured or that she would die.
Her fear was that she would not know who she was before she died, that Xiao Yichen would be implicated, that he would not be able to avenge his father because of her, and that she would even implicate her grandparents!
I don't know how long it took, but she finally opened her eyes.
In that gloomy sight, the golden bell on the edge of the skirt was shaking softly.
Like a beam of light, it illuminated Shen Nanbao's eyes. She held it in her hand and shook it carefully.
The golden bell stopped for a moment and then quickly started shaking.
Even without any words, Shen Nanbao could still feel a touch of reassuring power.
That's right, there's no need to be afraid. With Xiao Yichen here, even without him, as long as she still has a breath left, she should still fight for the ones she cares about.
When the saint came in, he saw the strange and determined light in Shen Nanbao's eyes, but this light could hardly shine into her eyes.
She stretched out the brocade handkerchief and pressed it to her nose. With her other free hand, she pointed at Shen Nanbao from afar, "Open the door."
Hearing the noise, Shen Nanbao raised his eyes and hit the bottom of the saint's plain skirt. His majestic and solemn face looked rugged and ferocious in the dim light.
Shen Nanbao only glanced at it and then lowered his head.
The saint was not annoyed that she was so rude. He spoke to the wall at the door of Shiran and said in a high voice: "Miss Xiao Er, do you know why I arrested you?"
Shen Nanbao said: "I don't know."
The saint narrowed his eyes, "Because you don't know how to be grateful, don't show consideration for the official family's concern, don't cherish the identity of the female country prince, and don't cherish the identity of the second daughter of the county prince's palace, you actually committed an adulterous affair with your own brother! "
Shen Nanbao smiled, she looked firmly into the saint's eyes, "The saint should know better than me, Xiao Yichen and I are not related by blood."
She is not a stupid person. Even if things have reached this point, even if she doesn't dare to think about it, one after another, one after another, is standing in front of her, making her have to think about the saint's murderous intention towards her and why her mother is acting like that. She is so tight-lipped and determined not to say who her father is...
Sure enough, as soon as these words came out, the saint's eyebrows rose, and he pointed at Shen Nanbao and shouted: "Come here, Miss Xiao Er has committed a big crime and refuses to repent. She actually slandered the officials and put her on trial immediately." Fight and cut her tongue so that she can never speak dirty words again!"
As he spoke, a powerful force came in. It was the imperial city envoy who walked in with a knife in his hand. Without saying a word, he picked up Shen Nanbao and walked out.
