When I saw Li Zhongyong's name, my first reaction was whether he had the same name. But then I looked at the place where the incident occurred. It was Hejian Mansion in Hebei Province, and the ancestral home of the second senior brother Li Zhongyong was Hejian.

Seeing this, he frowned. The files he was currently looking through were the conviction files of the Ministry of Punishment. They were all cases that had been completed and reported to the local authorities for approval. There were five levels of criminal law in the Tang Dynasty, from light to heavy, they were flogging.

Punishment, cane punishment, imprisonment, exile, death penalty, the crime Hejian Mansion charged Li Zhongyong with was treason and rebellion, which was a capital crime.

I eagerly spread the word and read the details. It turned out that the incident happened a month ago. Someone reported that Li Zhongyong had contacts with the Shenzhou rebel Chen Liqiu and secretly funded Chen Liqiu's cloth, money and food. After investigation by Hejian Mansion, it was found to be true, and Li Zhongyong was arrested.

The three of them were all captured and imprisoned in the Hejian Mansion Prison. They will wait for the approval of the Ministry of Punishments before they can be sentenced.

The files he was currently looking at were all processed by the Ministry of Punishment. The end of Li Zhongyong's file had the approval seal of the Ministry of Punishment, and the approval date was three days ago.

Since there were still several officials from the Ministry of Justice around, he was worried that they would see the clues, so he calmed down, put down Li Zhongyong's file and continued to look through the following files. However, he was so anxious at this time that he had no time to look at other files, and he flipped through them casually.

, while thinking anxiously in his mind.

As a censor, he was familiar with the criminal law, so he naturally knew the nature of rebellion. This was a heinous crime, and it was the first of the ten evils. The usual death penalty was executed after autumn, but the ten heinous crimes were not included in the general amnesty.

, so there is no need to wait until the end of the autumn for the execution, the execution will be carried out immediately after the conviction.

Now the Ministry of Punishment has approved the death penalty for Li Zhongyong's family of thirteen, and the official document was issued three days ago. Hejian Mansion belongs to Hebei Province, located northeast of Chang'an, about a thousand miles away from Chang'an, like this

Official documents issued by the Ministry of Justice should not be transferred very quickly at the post station, but a journey of more than a thousand miles would normally only take three or four days.

Li Zhongyong and others once relied on him and lived and died together. When Li Zhongyong was in trouble, he naturally would not sit idly by and ignore it. But the problem now is that Li Zhongyong funded Chen Liqiu and was guilty of the conspiracy with Chen Liqiu. And the evidence is conclusive. Even if

He wanted to overturn the case but was unable to do so. This was a sure thing. Even if he had great power, he could not reverse the situation.

Moreover, it has been three days since the official document was sent out, and it should be almost arriving at Hejian Mansion by now.

At this moment, my mind was filled with the scene of getting along with Li Zhongyong. In order to fulfill his master Luo Yangzi's last wish, Li Zhongyong gave him all the money he had at the critical moment. Later, he and Chen Liqiu intercepted the enemy to fight for him.

Time, after he settled down from Longhu Mountain, Li Zhongyong also entrusted Chen Liqiu to go to Longhu Mountain to give him some silver.

Repaying a drop of kindness from others should be repaid by a spring. This is his style and his character. This is true for Luo Yangzi, this is true for Longhu Mountain, and it is true for everyone. Li Zhongyong was kind to him, but it didn't work.

He would save Li Zhongyong by any means.

The bright ones are definitely not going to work anymore, so they can only come to the dark ones. There is no other way but to rob the prison.

It was already midnight in the morning, and prisoners were beheaded at three quarters of noon. Even if they set off immediately at this time, it would be too late to reach Hejian Mansion before noon today. However, under normal circumstances, the post station can only transfer official documents at most three hundred miles a day, and the river

It should be about 1,200 miles away from Chang'an, which should take at least four days, which means it should be enough to get there tonight.

If you leave immediately at this time, it will definitely arouse people's suspicion, and there is no point in leaving at this time. With the running speed of Young Master Hei, you can reach Hejian Mansion in four hours at most. If you leave immediately, it will take ten hours to get to Hejian Mansion.

It's not dark yet, and we can't take action immediately to rob prisons and save people.

A few days ago, he was also checking files in the Criminal Department, but would not leave until noon. In order to cover up others' deception, he could only stay patiently in the Criminal Department for another hour.

But at this moment, he did not just wait and suffer, but thought about the matter over and over in his mind. He did not doubt the authenticity of the matter, because according to Li Zhongyong's character, he would never rebel because of Chen Liqiu.

Severing the brotherhood with him, the imperial court had previously sent troops to encircle Chen Liqiu, and Shenzhou and Hepingzhou were trapped. Chen Liqiu must be short of money and food. It is entirely possible that Li Zhongyong secretly funded rice, grain, gold and silver when Chen Liqiu was desperate.

What he couldn't figure out was why Li Zhongyong was arrested by Hejian Mansion and put in prison. But after thinking about it, he figured out that it was not Li Zhongyong himself who was arrested by Hejian Mansion, but also his relatives and family members. It was impossible for Li Zhongyong

Leave your loved ones and family members behind and escape alone.

Near noon, after leaving the Criminal Department, Mr. Hei was tied outside the door, but he did not leave immediately, but rode back to the Yushitai.

The Yushitai is the supervisory office, and official documents need to be transferred through the post stations on weekdays. Therefore, the yamen has a complete distribution map of the post stations. He went back to find the map and read it carefully. He looked at the map for three purposes. One was to confirm that official documents were transferred to Qianliang.

How long does it take to travel a hundred miles away? The second is to confirm the locations of the inns around Hejian Mansion. He is not only going to rescue Li Zhongyong himself, but also Li Zhongyong’s family. More than ten people, old and young, want to escape from Hejian Mansion.

, he could only use the carriage, and he had to prepare the carriage for Li Zhongyong and others in advance.

The last step was the escape route. Li Zhongyong and others had nowhere else to go and had no choice but to rush to Shenzhou to meet Chen Liqiu. He had to plan the southward route for Li Zhongyong and others in advance.

After drawing a route to Shenzhou, he returned to the backyard and changed into casual clothes. He also prepared some silver coins and then rode out.

The Ni family had their own medicine shop. They asked for several medicines and ordered the clerk to grind them into powder and take them with him.

The medicines he asked for were all ordinary medicines. Even if they were mixed together, they could only be used to calm the nerves and induce sweating. In order to ensure that no clues were left, he did not dare to prepare Mongolian sweat medicine directly even in the Ni family's pharmacy. The missing one was available everywhere

Just mix the leaves of Sophora japonica and this packet of powder is a large dose of Mongolian sweat medicine.

He was an official of the imperial court at this time, so he could not massacre the jailers in order to rescue Li Zhongyong. When he went to the ground, he could only stun them with Mongolian sweat medicine.

The wind picked up in the afternoon and it started to snow, which was quite advantageous for the pair's long-distance march. He was now a well-known figure, and too many people knew him. Now that he was riding in the snow, passers-by could not see his face.

Young Master Hei had not run freely for a long time. After leaving Chang'an, he started to run wildly with his mane raised and his tail flat.

At this time, Young Master Hei was no longer what he used to be. He had not eaten all the fine food in vain in the past few months. Not only had he gained a lot of weight, but he had also grown very tall. After he hit the road, he was as fast as the wind.

Young Master Hei had amazing endurance and could keep running very fast. He entered the boundary of Hebei Province in two hours.

Not long after entering Hebei Dao, he suddenly felt a chill in his heart. This strange feeling was not unfamiliar to him. It was a sign of spiritual energy advancement. Thinking carefully, it had been three months since he last entered Dongxuan Danlan.

The improvement of spiritual energy was expected and not surprising. Not long after he traveled, he changed his route to the east. In fact, Hejian Mansion was located due north of Hebei Road. The reason why he changed his route to the east was to go to the county seat to the east.

Li Zhongyong prepares the carriage heading south.

His original plan was to buy as many carriages as he could. If he couldn't buy them, he would have to rob them from the inn. But there was a problem with robbing the inn's carriage, that is, the people hadn't been rescued yet. If he robbed the inn's carriage at this time,

, after Li Zhongyong and others are rescued, Li Zhongyong will pass by here again on his way south, and he will probably be intercepted by the soldiers at the post station.

With good luck, I successfully bought two carriages from the county seat, and then bought some dry food from the city, and then led the carriage out of the city and headed north.

At the second watch, I came to the south of Hejian Mansion City, drove the two carriages to a sheltered place, and let the black master go, allowing him to move freely.

At this time, all the locust trees have lost their leaves, and there are no locust tree leaves or locust bark.

After being fully prepared, he took a sweat towel to cover his face, then lifted his spirits and entered Hejian Mansion.

Hejian Prefecture is a prefectural city, much larger than an ordinary county town. But after living in Chang'an, I feel that Hejian Prefecture is not very big. The prison is usually not far from the government office. If you find the government office, you will find the prison.

Since it was cold and freezing, there was no one outside. After finding the prison, he climbed over the wall and quietly approached the house where the jailer lived. His Hunyuan Divine Skill can activate the pure Yang spiritual energy. He held a handful of powdered medicine in each hand to stimulate the energy and roast it.

Smoke came out and slowly dispersed, and soon several jailors who were punching and drinking in the room fainted and fell to the ground.

In addition to the jailer outside, there were also two jailers inside the prison. Seeing that the prison where the prisoners were held was quite large, they did not stun them. Instead, they held two snowballs and extinguished the candles inside, and then rushed away

He entered, and before the two of them could react, he knocked one of them unconscious, then grabbed the neck of the other jailer and asked in a deep voice, "Where is Li Zhongyong imprisoned?"

The jailer was so frightened that he kept begging for mercy.

"Stop talking nonsense, tell me quickly, where is Li Zhongyong imprisoned?" He put more force on his hands.

"Hero, spare your life. There are hundreds of prisoners in this prison. I can't even remember their names," the jailer replied.

Hearing this, he suddenly frowned. He couldn't tell the jailer in too much detail, otherwise the jailer would definitely tell others what he said tonight, and then he might be traced.

At this moment, Li Zhongyong's voice came from the cell near the exit, "Lao Wu?"

Hearing Li Zhongyong's voice, he knocked the jailer unconscious without hesitation, walked quickly to the cell door and broke the chain on the door, "Where are the others?"

"Who else?" Li Zhongyong asked casually.

Seeing that although Li Zhongyong was in a cell, he was well-dressed and did not look like he was suffering hardship, he suddenly became confused and asked, "Where is your family?"

"We are all at home," Li Zhongyong said.

"Were they not arrested with you?" he asked urgently.

"No," Li Zhongyong shook his head, "Why are you here? What happened?"

Seeing that Li Zhongyong answered incorrectly, he became more and more confused, "How long have you been arrested?"

"Someone hanged in front of my house yesterday. The master of suffering..."
