Chapter 254 Meeting Liang Xianyi again

"No." Fan Li flatly refused.

I asked slightly, knowing that he was worried about being discovered, but asked: "Why not? Brother Fan doesn't want to help me?"

"Why wouldn't I want to help you?"

Fan Li raised his eyebrows, raised his voice and said urgently: "I'm not just helping you, I treat your affairs as my own."

As he spoke, he paused, turned away uncomfortably, looked into the distance, and said: "Besides, Xing'er is also my friend. If he is in trouble, I will naturally try to rescue him. It's useless for you to see him. Why take the risk.”

I said: "Although we are guarded by the Jinyi Guards, this matter is not impossible. Speaking of which, you and Xing'er are old acquaintances. When you learned that he was imprisoned and went to visit, others would not be suspicious. What's more, those inside the Jinyi Guards , only Zhong Ming knows me, how about we just go in when he is not on duty, visit him and leave quickly?"

"Then tell me, why do you want to go to the prison to have fun? It won't be too late to see him again when he comes out."

I wasn't prepared for Li to be so inquisitive today.

In the past, he would not have asked me so many questions. Whatever I suggested, he would readily accept it as he thought it was appropriate, but this time he was not so forthcoming.

I became angry for a moment and said coldly: "If Xing'er can't come out, can't I go in and see him? If you don't want to take me in, just say so. I'll figure it out on my own."

I turned and walked back.

"Why are you angry?" Fan Li followed me, walking beside me, looking at me sideways.

"I just want to know what your plans are? You wouldn't just want to have fun for no reason, right? I didn't say I wouldn't take you in, so why are you angry?"

I strode forward, ignoring him with a straight face, but my mood was low and miserable.

Thinking in his heart, he didn't know how Liang Xianyi would deal with Xing'er.

After all this time, would he still hate Xing'er?Will he still have to give death to Xing'er?

Involuntarily, Liang Xianyi's hoarse voice seemed to be heard in his ears again... He ordered Zhong Ming to kill Xing'er.

"Forget it, I just promise you, don't be angry." Fan Li said.

"Seriously?" I stopped and looked up at him.

He looked helpless, shook his head slightly, sighed, and said: "Anyway, you have a big idea. If I don't agree, you don't know what you will do, so why don't I accompany you."

Fan Li's words were like a clear spring water, gurgling through my anxious heart, making me feel grateful and relieved.

And on his resolute face, his eyes were full of confusion.

Such a burly man seemed a little at a loss.

I smiled at him, bowed and said, "Then, subordinate, I would like to follow the general's arrangements."

Fan Li sighed again, clasped his hands and said, "Let's go. I really can't do anything to you."

We went to Fan Li's house, changed into light armor, took some food and some clean clothes, and rode to Xuanfu Prison.

The Yamen servants and the Jin Yiwei guards saw Fan Li and hurriedly let him go.

When they arrived at the place where Xing'er was being held, Fan Li said to a guard in uniform and the guard outside the cell door who was following him: "You guys go down first. I'll say a few words to him and then leave."

After everyone left, Fan Li took a few steps outside and whispered to me: "Go quickly."

Behind the thick wooden rafters, Xing'er, wearing handcuffs and anklets, looked expectantly at us. As soon as I walked forward, he hurriedly jumped on the wooden rafters.

Xing'er's eyes were bright and nervous. He opened his mouth and silently called me: "Miss——"

I ran up to him and held his wrist. The chain on his wrist was cold, but he was very happy when he saw me. He hurriedly whispered: "Lao Hu is at Jiang's house. I accidentally entered it by mistake." Jiang Chujie’s trap..."

"I already know all this. Xing'er, listen to me. The emperor is angry with you. It's important for you to save your life no matter what."

I took out a hairpin from my sleeve and stuffed it into his hand: "If something goes wrong, give this hairpin to the emperor and ask him if he remembers to promise me something? I once asked him for a way to avoid death." I hope he won’t blame the Lin family because of me, have you remembered it clearly?”

Xing'er nodded and said with a smile: "As long as the whereabouts of the eldest lady are not leaked, I am not afraid of suffering some punishment."

The light in the dungeon was dim, and Xing'er's eyes were like the brightest stars on a winter night.

He was unaware of his situation.

I smiled at him, but my heart tightened. I just hoped that Liang Xianyi would forgive Xing'er for the sake of the hairpin.

The beaded hairpin was originally kept in the palace and was kept by Wen Jin. Last time I met Wen Jin in a hurry, she gave the hairpin to me, but I didn't expect to use it now.

After repeatedly admonishing Xing'er, I turned around and left in a hurry.

After walking to Fan Li, he whispered: "Let's go." We walked up the stone steps.

As soon as he reached the ground, he saw Zhong Ming, dressed in bright red flying fish official uniform, coming surrounded by people.

Although I had dressed up in disguise, now I was wrapped in armor, my face was covered by a helmet, my face was blackened, and I had a fake beard glued on to pretend to be Fan Li's personal guard, but I still hurriedly lowered my head.

Coming closer, Fan Li stopped to chat with Zhong Ming.

Zhong Ming seemed not to have expected Fan Li to come.

Fan Li actually started chatting with him.

"What are you going to do, Mr. Liang?" Fan Li asked in a deep voice.

"I'm going to do some official business as ordered." Zhong Ming said.

It was like a flash of lightning suddenly flashed across the night sky. I suddenly noticed that at a quick glance, there seemed to be a little eunuch following Zhong Ming. The eunuch was carrying a plate with a wine flask in it...

Act as ordered, handle official duties...

I finally understood why Fan Li was not in a hurry to leave, but instead took the initiative to talk to Zhong Ming.

Liang Xianyi still can't tolerate Xing'er... He wants to kill Xing'er!
"This wine," Fan Li said coldly, "Is it for Xing'er?"

"General Fan, please forgive me for being busy with official duties. I will visit you another day to discuss the matter."

Zhong Ming raised his feet and stepped over.

When the little eunuch passed by us, Fan Li grabbed his arm and said in a high-pitched voice: "General——"

"Is it possible that General Fan wants to resist the imperial edict?" Zhong Ming turned around and asked.

"My lord, I want to see the emperor! After I meet the emperor, Mr. Liang can resume his official duties."

"I would like to advise the General. This matter concerns Queen Xiaoxian. For the sake of the General, you should just pretend that you don't know anything." Zhong Ming said in a low voice.

"Xing'er can't die!" Fan Li gritted his teeth and said hoarsely, "Do you know that Queen Xiaoxian treats him like a brother?"

"General Fan - I am following orders."

"You come with me to see the emperor!" Fan Li couldn't help but said, grabbing Zhong Ming and starting to leave.

But from the dim prison door, a mountain cry came from the door: "Long live the Emperor!"

Everyone heard this and fell to their knees.

In the peripheral vision, a bright yellow robe appeared in the field of vision, and then a familiar and calm voice came: "What does Fan Qing want to do with me?"

Fan Li, who was beside him, said in a deep voice: "Your Majesty, please spare Zhao Xing's life and hand him over to me. He is a man. Let him go into battle to kill the enemy and make up for his mistakes!"

"My soldiers should be like General Fan." Liang Xianyi's voice was calm but extremely majestic.He said slowly, "Come on, Fan Li will return home immediately, no violation is allowed. Everyone, please step back."

Everyone walked out of jail.

Quan stood quietly in the yard waiting.

Even Zhong Ming and the eunuch carrying the wine flask came out.

Only Liang Xianyi and Eunuch Du were left inside.

At first, Fan Lijing and I stood outside waiting, thinking that it would be fine as long as Zhong Ming and the eunuch were still there.

But after waiting silently for a while, I suddenly felt a palpitation in my heart, and suddenly woke up. I ran towards the prison without caring, pushed open the door and rushed in.

"Escort!"

"stop!"

……

A swarm of voices sounded, and a cold light flashed before my eyes. Zhong Ming's sword was blocked in front of my eyes, and my arm was grabbed tightly by Fan Li.

My throat was astringent and bitter, so I glared at Zhong Ming and said, "I want to go see Xing'er——"

I saw Zhong Ming suddenly startled and looking at me in disbelief.
