The Western Prison of the Prefecture.
Those imprisoned here are all those who were imprisoned by the emperor's own order. Once you enter this place, it is almost impossible to get out.
Warden Han Qingyun greeted him, "Your Majesty, Xue Ren is imprisoned in the death row, where he never sees the light of day. Shall I bring him here to see Your Majesty?"
"Take me to see him"
"yes"
They walked through a narrow corridor, went down a flight of stairs, turned right and went down again, and then passed through another long corridor. It was where the prisoners were held. The rooms were separated by one another. Seeing Xiao Hanyi coming, the prisoners inside came forward one after another, "Your Majesty, I am innocent..."
"I know my crime, please forgive me, Your Majesty..."
"emperor!"
The prison warden glared at them fiercely, and these people dared not shout anymore.
When they passed by a room, the people inside were lying casually with their legs spread out, and they did not react at all to Xiao Hanyi's arrival.
Xiao Hanyi's heart moved slightly. This person was quite interesting.
[Tyrant Daddy, wait a minute, this Bai Yingqi was framed. He is not a member of the late Crown Prince's group. He is a talented person and can solve the problems in East Xinjiang.]
Xiao Hanyi stopped. There were many tribes in the East Xinjiang area, and there were always frictions with the border. For so many years, they had been harassed. If a large army went there, they would run away without a trace. If they were beaten severely, they would surrender. After a period of peace, they would rob the people.
Jiang Chi's tribe is in that area...
Xiao Hanyi looked at Bai Yingqi. If that was the case, this person could be used.
He turned around and whispered to Han Qingyun, "Who is this person?"
"Former Left Vice Minister of the Ministry of War Bai Yingqi," Han Qingyun said respectfully.
He was thinking, why is the emperor interested in Han Qingyun?
Fortunately, he never made things difficult for this person.
Han Qingyun’s life motto is to leave a way out for everything so that we can meet again in the future.
"Clean him up and take him to the Dali Temple," Xiao Hanyi said.
"yes"
......
Xue Ren was at the innermost.
He was spitting and cursing, "I assisted the emperor in ascending the throne. I am a meritorious official and a loyal minister. Damn it, I was framed. You bastards, when I get out, I will kill you one by one..."
"emperor?"
Xue Ren was cursing when he looked up and saw Xiao Hanyi standing in front of him.
After he recovered from his shock, he immediately bowed, "Your Majesty!"
Xiao Hanyi finally remembered him, this tyrant. He had reviewed his actions over and over again during this period, and there was nothing that was exposed. Every step was just right. It was impossible for Xiao Hanyi to know that he was the former prince's man.
In the end, he came to the conclusion that the assassination on the Lantern Festival was just because the emperor was angry with him and did not suspect him. If he had suspected him, with Xiao Hanyi's temper, he would not be alive today.
Xiao Hanyi gave Han Qingyun a look and said, "Step back."
Han Qingyun bowed and retreated to the corner, listening to the movement inside with his ears perked up.
The people imprisoned here once held high positions, including members of the royal family, so he had to know everything, big and small, and he would not dare to be careless at all.
After Xiao Hanyi sat down, he stared at Xue Ren for a while.
Xue Ren felt a little guilty when being stared at. "Your Majesty, I made a mistake. It's my fault. Please give me another chance."
[I'll give you another chance to assassinate your father, right?]
"Giving you a chance and not killing you is already a sign of Daddy's mercy. Do you think that if all those dancers committed suicide by taking poison, everything will be fine?"
"I remember the book saying that the former crown prince had a son who was hidden in your house. He should be fourteen now, right?"
hiss!
Xiao Hanyi's body tensed up, and he looked down at the little guy in his arms. What? Such a big thing, why are you revealing it now?!
That night, the Prince's mansion was a river of blood. Later, upon investigation, no one in the Prince's family survived... He blamed himself for this for a long time. He had clearly instructed that no innocent people should be harmed, and only the Prince's life should be taken, but in the end...
Xiao Jiayun felt Xiao Hanyi's gaze and grinned at him.
Are you happy? Are you surprised?
Xiao Hanyi looked at his daughter's smiling face and smiled bitterly, "Good girl!"
Xiao Jiayun whimpered a few times as a response.
Xue Ren is kneeling inside, huh? Are you two here to play the fatherly and filial piety role?
"Ahem"
Xiao Hanyi coughed twice and said, "You stand up first."
"I know that the late crown prince's son is hiding in your house..." Xiao Hanyi said in a cold voice.
After hearing this, Xue Ren's pupils dilated in shock. This is impossible, this is impossible!
He fell to his knees, thinking to himself, how can I argue for this?
Royal blood, if not... he should be the Crown Prince now.
You still want him to marry your daughter?
Um?
Good, what a great Xue Ren!
