Seeing that Tan Tai Zixun was finally willing to believe in her, she couldn't help but smile with relief.
With so many things happening recently, this was the only time she felt relaxed.
There are no twists and turns, no tragic scenes, just a confrontation with smart people, easy and smooth.
Soon, Su Lijin was assigned to be a jailer in the Ministry of Justice prison.
She touched her face. She was still wearing the human skin mask and the jailer's uniform. It was just an ordinary jailer's outfit and would not attract any attention.
Looking at the rows of prison cells, she curled her lips in satisfaction.
Although Tan Tai Zixun is a weak man, he has eyes as sharp as torches and is very wise. Now that she has met him, she finds that he is very decisive. It is this courage that makes Su Lijin admire him. This man deserves the position of prime minister.
Regaining her composure, she walked forward carefully.
The prison in front is where Tan Tai Chun is imprisoned.
She has to go there quickly.
As he was getting closer, he heard voices of conversation inside and stopped in his tracks.
She looked up and saw Xiao Zhaolin's figure, which made her frown.
Why is Xiao Zhaolin here too?
Thinking of what Tan Tai Zixun said, that it was he who brought Tan Tai Chun in, he couldn't help but tighten his grip on the wooden pillar of the prison.
Tan Tai Chun was dressed in prison uniform and looked at the virtuous prince in front of him with a cold expression, without much respect in his eyes.
In contrast to his indifference, Xiao Zhaolin looked at him with a smile on his face, a smile that was somewhat warm: "Bai Xiaosheng, I didn't expect that I could also meet the famous Jianghu Bai Xiaosheng."
"Hmph, are you here to see me? Are you here to arrest me?" Tan Tai Chun got angry when he mentioned this.
"hehe."
As if he couldn't hear his anger, Xiao Zhaolin smiled and continued to pretend to be elegant: "It is said that Bai Xiaosheng has a very bad temper, but not everyone can see it. After seeing it today, it is indeed well-deserved."
Tan Tai Chun snorted softly, "Your Highness, if you have arrested me, what crime do you have against me?"
Xiao Zhaolin just smiled and didn't answer.
"Oh, there's no crime. Does this count as bullying others and using public power for personal gain?"
"Bai Xiaosheng, I came here to see you, not to argue with you."
Faced with this sarcasm, Xiao Zhaolin was not angry, but laughed even more eagerly: "If you submit to me, I can let you go now."
Upon hearing this, Tan Tai Chun sneered slightly.
Xiao Zhaolin's purpose has been revealed to himself impatiently.
Su Lijin, who was watching secretly from the side, frowned slightly. Xiao Zhaolin wanted to win over Tan Tai Chun?
Indeed, Bai Xiaosheng knows all the secrets of the world. If he is recruited into his team, he will surely be a great help. It is not difficult to understand why Xiao Zhaolin would have this idea.
Her eyes fell on Tan Tai Chun. Although he was wearing prison clothes, he was still clean. It was obvious that he had not been tortured or suffered any pain.
This sneer made Xiao Zhaolin's smile falter, but he continued, "If you follow me, I can make you my advisor. If I succeed in the future, I can even make you a high-ranking official. Isn't this much better than wandering around in the martial arts world?"
He patiently persuaded them, believing that people in the underworld would inevitably be tempted.
Unexpectedly, Tan Tai Chun's sneer deepened and he almost laughed out loud.
"Your Highness, what a pity! I won't fall for this. Forget it."
"Hmph! If you don't accept my toast, you'll be punished!" Xiao Zhaolin's face twisted for a moment, and with a "snap", the whip in his hand fell and landed heavily on him.
Before Tan Tai Chun could catch his breath, another whip came at him.
Seeing his face turn pale, he sneered, "What I hate most is people who are stubborn. I'll give you some time. If you still behave like this next time, it won't be just a matter of two lashes."
After torturing the man, he threw down the whip and walked away.
After everyone left, Tan Tai Chun started cursing.
"Go to hell! If I weren't locked up, you'd dare to hit me!"
After cursing, he couldn't help but gasp and grimaced in pain.
When had Jianghu Baixiaosheng ever suffered such hardship and endured such suffering? Those who came to him all offered him gold and begged him for information. When had he ever been tortured like this?
Su Lijin sighed, but at the same time she found his cursing a little funny. She couldn't help but shake her head and quickly stepped forward to support the man.
Tan Tai Chun was stunned: "You..."
Looking at the jailer in front of him, he was alert at first, then suddenly moved his nose and smiled, "So it's you."
Su Lijin looked at her and blinked. She couldn't speak, but her eyes clearly expressed her confusion.
How did he recognize himself so quickly?
"I am a know-it-all in the world. I remember the smell of you." He said proudly.
Hearing this, Su Lijin burst out laughing and took out a pen and paper to write a few words.
"You want to take me out of prison?"
Seeing her nod, Tan Tai Chun shook his head and refused: "No, I can't leave."
Su Lijin blinked, her face full of confusion.
He curled his lips and jokingly said, "Who knows whether I will live or die if I go out with you."
Seeing her face becoming even more confused, Tan Tai Chun's joking tone intensified: "I have a premonition that you are about to make a big move. Now I am staying in prison, and I have enough food and drink to eat and drink. I am not comfortable. If I get out, I might be affected. Then I will be in danger of death, right?"
Su Lijin suddenly understood, looked at his joking face, shook her head and wrote a line of words.
She said: Staying here is clearly a den of wolves and tigers. Once trapped here, Xiao Zhaolin can torture me in various ways. It is better to take the opportunity to escape and be free.
How could Tan Tai Chun not know these principles?
He is such a clear-sighted and wise person that he must have figured everything out long ago.
He smiled bitterly and shook his head: "No, let's stay here."
Su Lijin's eyes showed understanding.
She suddenly understood why this person didn't want to leave.
The brush waved: Are you afraid that I will get myself into trouble by helping you escape from prison? Are you afraid that Xiao Zhaolin and the others will find me?
Although she did not tell Tan Tai Chun what happened outside, he seemed to know something.
He wanted to stay here simply because he didn't want her to be implicated.
Thinking of this, Su Lijin felt extremely guilty.
Tan Tai Chun felt a little embarrassed when his lie was exposed.
There were footsteps at the door.
The two looked at each other and were both shocked.
At this time, could it be that Xiao Zhaolin has returned?
If so, will they be discovered?
"Tantai Chun, I have been ordered to interrogate you."
Jiang Su's voice came.
Jiang Su?
Su Lijin looked up and saw Jiang Su, dressed in his official uniform, standing there with an air of righteousness.
At this time, she was wearing the uniform of a jailer, which did not arouse his suspicion.
Although he said so, Jiang Su's face was clearly a little confused.
Looking at Tan Tai Chun in front of him, his eyes were slightly puzzled.
He was asked by his superiors to interrogate a prisoner, but he had no idea what crime the man had committed.
