Rong Guiren stood up and nodded heavily, then looked at Mo Youzhu.
"You'd better not act rashly. If we are discovered, our small boat will not be able to withstand any wind and waves."
Mo Youzhu curled his lips.
"Tch, go find your people quickly. If you wait a little longer, it will be dawn."
The two of them also understood that there was no time to lose, so they quickly left the room and walked towards the Palace of Rejuvenation.
"Hey, we are the only two in the room now, can we talk?"
Mo Youzhu turned around and said to Nangong.
"What's there to say?"
"Don't you think that I didn't see that you were hiding something?" Mo Youzhu slowly approached Nangong. For such a seriously injured woman, it wasn't that she didn't have the intention to be on guard, but that there was no need to be on guard at all.
"I'm not hiding anything."
Nangong stopped Mo Youzhu's topic with one sentence.
"Okay! If you don't, there won't be. Anyway, I don't care about the shameful things you hide in your heart."
The conversation between the two ended in this night.
In the Zhenfusi Yamen Prison, in a five-meter-deep pit, Su Xuan was thrown to the ground with his arms and legs spread out. Qi Mingxuan sat next to him and meditated. The ground was covered with thatch, and the only visible light was from the hole above his head. The moonlight shines in.
Qi Mingxuan didn't speak or wake up Su Xuan. He just closed his eyes. Su Xuan let out a sigh and slowly opened his eyes. When he woke up completely, Su Xuan could feel the drowsiness coming from his neck and head. and pain sensation.
"Damn! What happened? Where is this?"
Su Xuan raised his head and looked around. He didn't even understand why he was in such a place. Su Xuan shook his head, and the drowsiness finally disappeared a little. Then he pressed several refreshing acupuncture points on his body, and then he was completely After reacting, the surrounding scenery became clear.
"Master Qi?" The first person Su Xuan saw was Qi Mingxuan, but when he saw him meditating with his eyes closed, he did not interrupt him suddenly. Instead, he got up and walked around. In the whole space, Su Xuan took advantage of the moonlight above his head. , carefully looking at the hole, which is about three feet in diameter, two people can't even stretch their legs in a straight line inside, and can only lie side by side.
Su Xuan touched the surrounding walls that were climbing straight up. They were smooth and moist, and even covered with moss in many places. Su Xuan could not stabilize himself just by placing his palms on them.
"Don't look at it. With my skills, I can go up only a foot, and then I have to go down. There is no way we can escape."
Su Xuan didn't look back, but started tapping the wall with one hand.
"So Master Qi, you are still alive. I thought you were dead."
Qi Mingxuan smiled helplessly.
"Master Su, I have to say that your sense of humor is innate. We are all in this situation, and you can still make such a joke!"
Su Xuan laughed heartlessly.
“Life is short, why not smile?”
"Life is too short, why not smile..." Qi Mingxuan repeated, but he could not stabilize his mood. After the death of his best friend, he was still in the prison specially built by the Town and Fu Division for serious criminals. I still don’t know what kind of charges I have been charged with outside. I don’t know all this.
Qi Mingxuan hated this feeling of powerlessness, but he had no choice but to suffer.
"Master Qi, do you know why we are here?"
Qi Mingxuan exhaled heavily, but still did not open his eyes.
"Know...but don't know..."
Su Xuan shrugged his shoulders.
"You said it, but you didn't say it! Where is the gold medal I gave you?"
Qi Mingxuan sat cross-legged and twisted his fingers into a strange shape. Su Xuan couldn't learn it anyway.
"Speaking of this, I am indeed a little embarrassed. The gold medal is not with me. It is probably in the hands of Commander Zhou Quan now!"
Su Xuan was in this situation, but he was very open-minded.
"Okay, if the gold medal is gone, it will be gone. What I'm curious about is, how could Zhou Quan have the courage to do such a thing? Although I don't think I have the ability to sit in the position of commander of the Imperial Guard, but at least the emperor is here How dare he imprison court officials when he was given a gift from the emperor?"
Qi Mingxuan snorted coldly.
"Mr. Su, you seem to be an amateur at this kind of thing. Are there too few imperial guards imprisoning the imperial officials?"
Su Xuan thought of Jin Yiwei's reputation and pursed his lips in agreement.
"That's true."
Su Xuan finally completed a circle. The place was not big and it didn't take too much time.
"In other words, now we have no clue at all?"
"You can say that……"
Qi Mingxuan paused and continued: "But... Mr. Su, we can talk about it. We may be able to figure out something about the suspicious things we encountered recently!"
Su Xuan looked up at the top of the prison.
"Don't worry, let them listen. In the eyes of these people, we are no different from the dead. No matter what we say, they will not care. They will just let us fend for ourselves."
The corner of Su Xuan's mouth rose slightly. He had learned a lot from the circle just now, but because he was too close to the guard watching, he had no way to communicate with Qi Mingxuan.
"Should I say it first? Or should you say it first?"
Su Xuan was lying on his back on the thatch. At this moment, he actually felt that he was still quite comfortable lying down. At least it was much better than falling unconscious on his head.
"Let me tell you first, Mr. Su, in terms of brain, I feel that you are still much better than me."
Su Xuan couldn't deny it.
"Please don't. I have no clue now, so no one is smarter than the other."
Qi Mingxuan opened his eyes for the first time and laughed.
"Master Su is really interesting."
Su Xuan turned over and held his head with one hand, looking at Qi Mingxuan who was sitting cross-legged.
"Hurry up and get down to business. I just asked you to laugh or not. Now I need you to talk seriously. Why are you starting to compliment each other?"
Qi Mingxuan's face began to harden.
"Do you remember what you asked me today?"
Su Xuan half-squinted his eyes as he recalled.
"What did I ask you?"
Qi Mingxuan helplessly held his forehead.
"My search of your room today was entirely at the instigation of Zhou Quan, and it was after returning from the morning court! At that time, Mr. Su, had you been temporarily appointed as the commander of the Imperial Guard by the emperor?"
Su Xuan nodded, responding to Qi Mingxuan's words.
"Then this is very strange. You have a gold medal given by the emperor, and you also have a position and official title. Zhou Quan is simply embarrassing us!"
Su Xuan still nodded silently.
"Then after I got your gold medal back, I was immediately surrounded by a crowd of people and took it back."
