"Tengbao, Zhuangzi." Suddenly Pang Cheng called out loudly. In fact, there were a lot of paperwork sitting there, but Pang Cheng called Tengbao alone. Tengbao was startled, put down his brush, and took a breath. Stand up and arch his hands: "My lord."

"Hand the zhuangzi to an adult for a glance, and then let Yuan Chonghuan press his handprint." Pang Cheng commanded, staring at Tengbao without a moment, but he saw that Tengbao was expressionless and extremely calm, nodded, and handed the zhuangzi. Ling Yiqu and the others, Ling Yiqu quickly scanned it, frowned, and handed it to Feng Ying. Feng Ying looked down, but before speaking, she suddenly heard Luo Yangxing speak; "Master Feng, what do you say?"

Feng Ying also concealed it, holding the testimonials and chanting: ""

"So serious?" Luo Yangxing seemed a little surprised. He rolled up his sleeves and said: "This... Yuan Chonghuan, if you nod your head like this, your wife and children will be decapitated." In the end, the words were very serious. Intimidate.

The muscles on Yuan Chonghuan's face throbbed rapidly, and it seemed to be distressed, but he throbbed for a while, nodded slowly, and said dryly: "Never mind, this is their life."

Feng Ying snorted and handed the testimony to Teng Bao, "Let him press his fingerprints."

"Wait." Suddenly, Ling Yiqu waved his hand and whispered back to Feng Ying: "Master Feng, Yuan Chonghuan's conspiracy, in fact, you and I know what it is, and everyone knows it. There is a lot of discussion in the court, if it is judged. It's too heavy, I'm afraid it will change."

"What?" Feng Ying was startled and blinked: "What do you mean?"

"Isn't our purpose to pass Yuan Chonghuan, except Qian Tilong?" Ling Yiqu knew that Luo Yangxing was by his side and suppressed his voice even lower, and said in a low voice, "In this case, you can achieve your goal, but you don't have to kill them all? As long as Yuan Chonghuan himself dies, his family will not worry about it. In this way, both the goal is achieved and the criticism is suppressed, right?"

When Feng Ying heard this, her heart was right. Elder Ge just let herself kill Yuan Chonghuan. It's better to be charged a little bit more seriously, but not to kill them all. There are many of Yuan Chonghuan's subordinates, and it is not worthwhile if one accidentally fell into it. , Thinking of this, nodded and said: "No matter." After that, he changed his pen and said: ""

After finishing the correction, he handed it to Teng Bao, "Let Yuan Chonghuan press his fingerprint."

Tengbao didn't say a word. He walked up to Yuan Chonghuan with his zodiac sign and said in a low voice: "Yuan Chonghuan, draw it."

Yuan Chonghuan looked down at the Zhuangzi and saw that although he was Ling Chi, but his wife and children had been sentenced to fashion, he seemed to sigh, quickly drew the bet, and handed the Zhuangzi to Tengbao. By the way, he looked up at Tengbao. See The young man's expression of indifference was completely different from the eager worries he had before, and he couldn't help shook his head.

After Tengbao handed the certificate up, he returned to his seat, and the clerks next to him came over in a low voice and asked, "Old Ren, what has been changed in this certificate?"

But seeing Teng Bao silent, staring at Yuan Chonghuan, who was kneeling in the hall, with the corners of his mouth pressed tightly, a strange stubbornness appeared on that honest face. For a long time he looked back at the paperwork next to him, reluctantly Smiled: "It's nothing." As he said, he didn't say anything.

Late at night, Yuan Chonghuan sat cross-legged in front of the window alone, staring at the moon outside the window, a bloody atmosphere exuded in the cell, piles of khaki firewood spread on the ground, and several jailers outside the railing were pouring wine. While chatting, deep in the cell, the tormented person’s groaning from time to time...

"Pump."

Suddenly, there was a knock on the door. Several jailers looked at each other. One jailer walked over to open the door and saw Tengbao standing outside with a plate of wine and vegetables in his hand.

"Master Ren? Why are you here?" The jailer looked up and down Tengbao.

Tengbao didn't change his expression, but said indifferently: "Yuan Chonghuan has been convicted of treason, Master Ling said not to let him die, and Haosheng served him, let me bring him wine and food."

"Yes, yes." The jailer nodded. This is also commonplace. While convicting Ling Chi, it is easy to think of suicide. Therefore, there is a rule in the prison that Ling Chi prisoners should not be abused, and he should be allowed to live smoothly until execution. Until that day.

"Master Ren, please." The jailer hurriedly took the tray and let the door open. Seeing Tengbao coming in, several jailers hurriedly stood up: "Master Ren."

"You are eating, I will follow Yuan Chonghuan's instructions to see Yuan Chonghuan." After Tengbao said this, he walked to Yuan Chonghuan's prison and pointed to the door: "Open."

The door opened with a loud cry, and Tengbao took the tray and came in. The jailer shut the door wisely. Tengbao put the tray down, turned around, and called out: "Yuan Chonghuan."

Yuan Chonghuan was startled. Hearing this sound, he slowly turned his head and saw Tengbao, the focus of his eyes gradually became apparent, nodded, hoarsely said; "Tengbao?"

"It's me." Tengbao bent down and placed the dishes on the tray in front of Yuan Chonghuan, sat cross-legged opposite him, and made a gesture of asking: "Gong Yuan."

Yuan Chonghuan was sentenced to death at this time, but he didn't care about anything. He smiled, picked up the jug and poured a glass of wine, picked it up and drank it all, and said, "Thank you for coming to see me." As he said, suddenly Feeling that there was something under the wine glass, I fumbled for it, and unexpectedly took out a paper ball with the words "Yellow Flower Day Knot" written on it.

Yuan Chonghuan suddenly widened his eyes, and looked up and down Tengbao, Tengbao smiled, poured himself a glass of wine, and drank it all in one go.

Yuan Chonghuan suddenly turned around and looked outside the prison. Because he had already been sentenced, his prison was moved to the depths of the corridor, far away from the place where the jailers met, but in the opposite cell, a prisoner was looking at the railing. Here, because Yuan Chonghuan had his back on his back, he didn't know that Yuan Chonghuan was holding the paper ball in his hand, and only shouted with his throat: "My partner, follow ours too."

Yuan Chonghuan turned his head and saw that Tengbao had already picked up his drink, filled a glass, walked straight to the opposite side, and handed it to the criminal: "Hey."

The prisoner recognized that it was Prison Sternberg, and seemed a little timid, and said in a low voice, "Master Ren, why are you here in the middle of the night?"

Tengbao reprimanded: "If you let you drink, you can drink, why do you say so much?"

"Yes, yes." The prisoner drank the glass of wine and returned it to Tengbao. Tengbao scolded again: "Get out of bed."

"Yes, yes." The prisoner quickly turned around and crawled to the corner of the prison. He shrank into a ball and closed his eyes.

Tengbao nodded in satisfaction, turned around and walked back. Seeing Yuan Chonghuan was pouring and drinking, he hurriedly walked to him and sat down, hugged his knees and said: "Yuan Gong knows?"

"Yeah." Yuan Chonghuan nodded.

"That's all right." Tengbao stood up, flicked the dust on his body, and whispered: "After the siege, the guards are tight. Master Zu said that it is not easy to enter. After about three days, he will be able to save you, Yuan Gong Just wait."

The muscles on Yuan Chonghuan's face jumped, bowed his head and drank the wine in his hand, nodded and said: "Yes." When he raised his head, seeing Tengbao going to leave, he suddenly said: "Tengbao."
