Chapter 218 Secretly (Update 1)
The jailer behind him lost all patience and kicked him hard.
"What are you waiting for? Hurry up and go!"
Han Tong staggered a few steps, almost falling to the ground, and tilted his head to spit out a mouthful of blood foam.
He had never suffered such humiliation before, but now was different. He was just a death row prisoner who was about to be escorted to the execution ground.
Even if others bully him, he has no choice but to endure it!
The jailer stepped forward, picked him up and pushed him forward hard.
"Go! Don't delay the execution!"
Han Tong shuddered. At this moment, he finally understood that there was no chance for him to turn the situation around!
When he arrived at the door and saw the prison van, Han Tong's face turned even paler and his legs went weak.
Indescribable fear surged from the depths of his heart and quickly engulfed him, causing his shoulders to tremble slightly unconsciously.
Someone taunted, "Master Han, please? Do you want us to carry you up there ourselves? If we go too late, we won't be able to afford it."
Han Tong shuddered and swallowed the rest of his words unconsciously. He resigned himself to his fate and dragged his heavy shackles onto the prison van.
A cool breeze blew, and Han Tong, who was only wearing a thin prisoner uniform, was so cold that his lips turned slightly blue. He curled up his body, trying to warm himself up.
However, after walking for a distance, the prison van suddenly stopped.
"Who are you?" the jailer said with a frown, "Can't you see this is a car for a condemned prisoner? How dare you stop it?"
Lian Zhou's gaze fell on the curled-up figure in the prison van.
Before this, who could have imagined that this proud and successful Shaoqing of the Guanglu Temple would end up like this?
Lian Zhou raised his voice and said, "I am here on the orders of my master to escort Han Tong back to the Han family!"
Hearing this, Han Tong's whole body froze, and then he looked up in disbelief!
However, the moment he saw who was coming, the hope that had been burning in his heart was instantly shattered.
How could it be Lian Zhou? He thought it was—
"Your master? Who?" the jailer asked with a frown.
Lian Zhou took out the jade pendant.
"The prince has ordered that Han Tong be taken there immediately. There must be no mistakes!"
Everyone was stunned.
An order personally given by the Prince of Dingbei?
"I was blind just now, please forgive me!" The jailer put on a flattering smile and apologized repeatedly. After all, the prince of Dingbei Marquis was not someone they could afford to offend, but if they wanted to take him away...
"But sir, you are really putting us in a difficult position. Han Tong is a death row prisoner, and the execution time is approaching——"
Before he could finish his words, someone next to him suddenly remembered something, hurriedly pulled him aside, and lowered his voice.
"I heard that at the Mid-Autumn Palace Banquet last night, the Prince of Dingbei was ordered to lead people to thoroughly investigate the Han family! Could it be... that this is also related to this?"
The fire last night burned everything to ashes, and everyone in the streets and alleys knew about it.
The jailer who had spoken earlier hesitated for a moment after hearing this, and finally nodded.
The Prince of Dingbei is not someone they can afford to offend.
"The prince has given an order, and we shall obey! Lord Lianzhou, please——"
Han Tong, who was in the prison van, also heard these words and suddenly felt a strong sense of uneasiness in his heart.
Shen Yanchuan?
Thoroughly investigate the Han family? !
What on earth happened overnight! ?
Lian Zhou walked over, looked at him through the fence, snorted and laughed, and said meaningfully: "Master Han, you really gave birth to a good son!"
Han Tong's heart suddenly sank!
