After a long time, Rong Chu just sighed, almost to himself, "If you want this country, take it... I was just thinking about how to say it so that you would believe me."

Ning Ke was walking in front, and even if he heard it, he just sneered. I'm afraid even he himself couldn't believe what he said after thinking about it for a long time, let alone her.

But, he finally said it.

The sky is a bit gloomy, just like her mood, no matter how she disperses it, it can't erase the lingering clouds. Although it is not raining heavily, the moist and gloomy feeling is always inexplicable.

I feel irritable and very uncomfortable.

The dungeon is in front of the Weaving Yamen and behind the Jiangnan Magistrate. When they heard that Ning Ke was going, someone rushed to deliver the message early in the morning. Therefore, when Ning Ke and Rong Chu arrived, someone had already opened the door and was waiting respectfully.

Got there.

"Two adults." Jiangnan Magistrate Liu Zhiyi looked at the two of them strangely, then leaned forward and looked behind them, and said respectfully, "Didn't the two adults come with any guards?"

Sun Kang sent a message to Liu Zhiyi, saying that Liu Yushi and Ning Guo were going together, and mentioned that the two of them were alone without any entourage. Liu Zhiyi had always been on good terms with Sun Kang, so he naturally knew that Sun Kang wanted to find out for himself.

That's why I asked.

"For a private visit incognito, is it necessary to bring an entourage?"

Ning Ke smiled back at Liu Zhiyi, seemingly very easy-going, and revealed everything to Liu Zhiyi. However, before Liu Zhiyi could react, Rong Chu, who was following closely behind, thrust the soft sword in his hand into Liu Zhiyi without mercy.

In the belly.

Then he hugged the shaky Liu Zhiyi and deliberately laughed in a voice that could be heard by everyone, "It's Liu. Mr. Liu, there is no need to be polite. If we talk about it, you and I were still the same family five hundred years ago."

After saying this, he made a "please" gesture and "hugged" Liu Zhiyi very intimately, following Ning Ke into the dungeon.

Not far away, the person who came to deliver a message to Liu Zhiyi early in the morning happened to see this scene, so he nodded with some relief, got on his horse and returned to the weaving Yamen.

Rong Chu carried Liu Zhiyi and Ning Ke into the dungeon, and a smell of decay and decay rushed straight to his nose. Ning Ke hesitated slightly. He had heard his father mention the dungeon earlier, and at first he felt that those in the dungeon deserved what they deserved, and they deserved it.

, only when you are really in a dungeon do you realize what kind of unforgivable sin it is that you should use a dungeon to imprison such a soul that longs for freedom.

Then her footsteps paused slightly. Rong Chu, who was following her, also paused while supporting Liu Zhiyi.

It was during such a meal that the soft sword held by Rong Chu went sideways. The jailer who was following the two men could not avoid it and bumped into Liu Zhiyi. The soft sword lost control and penetrated Liu Zhiyi's ribs.

Rong Chu reacted very quickly and immediately turned Liu Zhiyi around, leaning the exposed sword tip against the wall, and then looked back at the jailer.

When Ning Ke heard the movement, he turned his head. There was no anger in his eyes, but there was an endless coolness in his eyes.

The jailer couldn't hear Liu Zhiyi's lecture, but saw Ning Guoxiang and Liu Yushi looking back at him. He lowered his head in desperation, "Young man... I accidentally bumped into some adults..."

Ning Ke didn't answer, but waited for the jailer to finish speaking, and then said coolly, "I can't even walk well, so what use are you?"

Rong Chu smiled lightly, drew out his soft sword, and swiped past the jailer before he could react.

In one moment, two lives were lost.

Even though he deliberately tried to hide, there was still some splattered blood stained on Rong Chu's blue robe. Rong Chu looked at Ning Ke with a hint of resentment in his eyes, "How do you know that these two people's crimes are unforgivable?"

"People flock together, and Sun Kang is like this, and they are no better."

Ning Ke smiled faintly and walked forward a few steps. When Rong Chu quickly followed, he laughed again and said, "In Sun Kang's study, I saw the words Liu Zhiyi sent him, and the signature was still the same.

Handwritten by His Highness the King."

Without waiting for Rong Chu to speak, Ning Ke turned right and walked a few steps forward before stopping in front of the iron prison door.

Rong Chu hurried over and handed the key he took out from the jailer to Ning Ke. Although he tried his best to suppress it, his trembling hands still betrayed Ning Ke's extremely unstable mind. After all, he hadn't seen his father for a long time, not to mention

, when they meet again, their identities are very different.

Rong Chu leaned over at the right time and whispered, "Prime Minister, are you okay?"

It was this voice of "Prime Minister" that calmed Ning Ke's mind. In any case, she is the Prime Minister and the one in the Northern Zhou Dynasty. She must not lose her manners in the dungeon in Jiangnan. Even in the dungeon, the person facing her is hers.

Dad.

Rong Chu patted Ning Ke on the shoulder and whispered, "Go, I'll wait for you outside."

Ning Ke nodded and pushed the cell door. There was a "squeak" sound, carrying the weight and oppression that could not be turned around. The gap became wider and wider, and the situation in between became clearer.

Lin Jiang sat at the low table with his back to the door. Even when he heard the sound of the cell door opening, he remained silent.

Ning Ke stood behind Lin Jiang and suddenly lost the courage to ask righteous questions. No matter how he pretended to be, he would always be her father. He was connected by blood and could not be denied. Even now, they had changed their identities, but he was with her.

The majesty and nobility in her heart have never changed. Only in front of him will she realize her humbleness and insignificance. Even if it is as low as dust, it is not enough to wash away the dirt stained by her scheming.
