Chapter 83

noon.

Tree shade and cloud shadow, green cloud shade cover.

Prince Li Chengqian wears a silver crown on his head, brocade clothes, embroidered dragon patterns, and colorful clouds below. He looks at the distant mountains and water, water and clouds, and remains motionless.

The two guards stood behind them, their eyes were serious, and they seemed to be loose and tight. They were all first-class master warriors, and they had a full set of armor on their bodies, so they could calmly kill criminals.

After a while, only the sound of treading footsteps came from the stairs, and suddenly a middle-aged man with a feather fan and scarf appeared, with a warm complexion and a calm demeanor.

"Mr. Zhou is here."

When Prince Li Chengqian turned around, the majesty and demeanor just now was swept away, and his legs and feet were not working well, which looked a little funny.

"Your Highness,"

Mr. Zhou came to the front, saluted, and then came, "There has been news from the Gongyuan."

"Oh,"

Li Chengqian raised his eyebrows, smiled, and said, "This year's Spring Festival is full of talents."

"yes,"

Mr. Zhou replied, and then said, "The Li Tianquan mentioned by Mr. Wang Yu was supported by all the examiners, but..."

"Master Wang Yu is now under house arrest by His Majesty, so they are all hesitant."

"Li Tianquan,"

Prince Li Chengqian smiled and said, "As expected, he is Wang Yu's favorite person. He is really good, but this time the chief examiner is Li Baiyao. The final result depends on him."

"What's Mr. Zhou's opinion?"

"Is this Li Tianquan worthy of our efforts to win over? The emperor just issued an edict to let Wang Yu's daughter enter the palace. There may be some secrets behind it."

"Li Tianquan is involved in this matter, I'm afraid there will be a lot of trouble."

Mr. Zhou said in a cautious tone: "In my opinion, His Highness should do his best to bring this person under his door."

"Oh, why is that?"

Prince Li Chengqian stretched out his sleeves and sat down on the stone bench. His face was flawed and it was difficult to stand for a long time.

"According to my inquiries, Li Tianquan is a true master of both poetry and prose, and he can also write a good hand. No one in the younger generation can match it."

"The most important thing is that this person has both civil and military skills, and he is decisive in killing. Not long ago, he went deep into the nether world alone, and killed all the remaining evils in the Yintian Pavilion."

After Mr. Zhou finished speaking, he looked around, and said in a low voice, "Recently, King Yue has become more and more powerful in the government and the opposition. His Majesty named him the governor of Kunzhou and the five governors of Xia, Sheng, Beifu, Beining, and Beikai. .”

"Even the former governor of Yangzhou and the general of Zuo Wuhou are still concurrently in charge."

"The actions of Cen Wenwen and others who support the King of Yue are also getting bigger and bigger."

Having said that, he leaned closer to the two and whispered in a whisper-like voice: "Your Highness, the change of Xuanwu is not far away!"

Prince Li Chengqian was stunned, his whole body froze, and then his eyes became extremely deep, and he said after a while, "Mr. Zhou is right. Since we are talents, we have to promote them. How can we allow other people to have selfish motives?" , to bury good talents.”

"That's it."

Mr. Zhou said with a smile, "In this case, no one will be able to choose His Highness's reasons, and you can also gain a general. With this person's both civil and military skills, it may be of great use at the most critical moment in the future."

Prince Li Chengqian is a very decisive person, and when he made a decision, he immediately ordered, "If that's the case, then save Li Tianquan."

"Yes, this subordinate will arrange it now.

Gongyuanli.

Li Baiyao was dressed in green clothes, without a crown on his head, fastened with a wooden hairpin, and three examination papers were placed on the case in front of him, he was the outstanding student of this year's Mingjing Department.

"Li Tianquan..."

Li Baiyao picked up the middle volume, I don't know how many times this is the recitation, the words are subtle and righteous, and the words are catchy, especially the seal characters are like knives, and the will is deep, which is impressive.

"If this person hadn't been involved in Wang Yu's matter, he would definitely be at the top of the case, but it's really hard to handle now."

He frowned, unable to decide.

At this moment, a small official hurried over and whispered beside him.

Li Baiyao frowned slightly. He is a person who pays great attention to orthodoxy and etiquette. Now that King Yue is favored by His Majesty, his power in the court and the opposition is getting bigger and bigger. Anyone with a discerning eye can see some problems in this situation.

Many ministers in the DPRK have written letters to ask His Majesty not to be too arrogant and indulge the king, but it has no effect.

"Forget it, just push the boat along with the flow."

When he made a decision, he stopped hesitating and immediately called people to record the list.

……

Three days later.

Li Tianquan arrived at the Imperial Prison alone, the sky was overcast and deserted at this time.

There were two lanterns hanging at the gate of the imperial prison, but the light made the half-open gate even more terrifying, like a beast's mouth, waiting for someone to get in.

Li Tianquan stopped and turned around, only to see that Jiang Tianqi had arrived.

"Thank you for your help, my lord, and my subordinates are very grateful."

This time, if Jiang Tianqi hadn't been running around, he would never have had the chance to meet Wang Yu.

"Don't say such polite words."

"The warden is out."

Jiang Tianqi turned his gaze and saw the prison officer come out in a hurry, interrupting what he had to say.

Li Tianquan looked towards the door, and sure enough, he saw a prison officer come out in a hurry.

"I've seen Mr. Jiang!" As soon as the prison officer stepped forward, he hurriedly saluted Jiang Tianqi.

Jiang Tianqi said indifferently: "There is no need to be too polite, I am here this time, following the emperor's orders, to meet Wang Yu."

The prison officer was stunned, and hurriedly said: "Since your lord is here by order, I will lead the way for you."

The prison officer said, let the two of them move in, Jiang Tianqi walked in front, Li Tianquan walked two steps behind.

The area of ​​the Imperial Prison is not large, and only real high-ranking officials and nobles will be detained here. Wang Yu is detained here because of his special status and special crimes.

The passage they walked was pitch black, and the dim oil lamps could only illuminate the surrounding area slightly, making the whole environment even more gloomy.

Walking along the way, you can hear ghosts crying and howling wolves in the prison, and people scream and cry from time to time, which makes people's scalp numb.

Many of the cries, screams, and murmurs came from the sight of someone passing by the iron fence, and they couldn't help shouting "injustice" and stretched out their hands to grab the passers-by.

But none of this had anything to do with Li Tianquan. He lowered his gaze and calmly passed by these people.

There are too many injustices in the world, and the turbidity is one, how can he manage it all?

It is not easy to be alone.

Even he himself is not only entangled in karma now, but a catastrophe will come a few years later, so how can he care about the lives of other people.

Not too far away, the prison officer stopped in front of an iron gate and ordered the two guards standing at the gate to open it.

As the iron door opened, a burst of inexplicable stench came out from inside.

Jiang Jiang Tianqi frowned and asked, "Is someone in here?"

"Yes, it's right here." The prison officer said as usual.

Li Tianquan didn't go over to have a look, but he also guessed that the scene inside might not look good, so he said to the prison officer: "Please invite Mr. Wang out first."

"Okay!" The prison officer immediately ordered the jailer: "You two quickly help Mr. Wang out!"

As soon as these words came out, Li Tianquan's expression changed slightly.

The word "support" was actually used. Could it be that Wang Yu has been beaten so badly that she can't walk by herself?
After a while, the two guards who went in came out with Wang Yu in their arms.

It wasn't that he couldn't walk at all, it was just that he was weak and walked a little slowly, so he was dragged out.

Li Tianquan's pupils shrank when he saw him. Not only did he smell bad, but even his clothes were tattered, and blurred flesh and blood could be seen.

Seeing his ugly face, the prison officer hurriedly smiled: "My lord, it's not that the humble position is violent, but Wu Guogong has been interrogated several times, and the humble position has to abide by it."

He waved his hands to let the prison officer and the guards back out, stepped forward quickly, supported Wang Yu and said, "Uncle, are you okay?"

Wang Yu's legs were weak and her whole body was weak, and she tried her best to hold on. After hearing this, she just looked at Li Tianquan with a light smile and said, "Since you are not dead, how can you do anything important?"

"But you don't have to bother to visit me again. From what I know about His Majesty, since I'm not dead at this time, he won't kill me again."

"It won't be long before I can go out. Although I will inevitably lose my job, I should be able to survive."

Li Tianquan was silent. If he were to tell him about Wang Qingtong now, he really didn't know what he would do.

He sighed inwardly, but this time he came here for another purpose. With a thought, a ray of power from the sapphire gourd turned into a mark and submerged silently into Wang Yu's body.

In case Wang Yu is not released before Qingtong enters the palace, this imprint may play a key role in the event of a conflict.

Thinking of this, Li Tianquan didn't say anything about Wang Qingtong, but just comforted him with gentle words, asking him if he had anything to explain.

The two talked for a long time. Seeing that it was time to visit, Wang Yu grabbed Li Tianquan's palm, stared into his eyes and said, "You must take good care of Qingtong."

However, Li Tianquan's heart beat wildly, because Wang Yu wrote a word in his palm calmly.

"escape!"
