son, don't mess around

Chapter 173

In the dark basement, inside the cell.

"Da da da!"

The sound of crisp footsteps appeared in the cell, echoing around.

The entire dungeon was silent, except for the crisp and loud footsteps, there was no other sound.

Surrounded by silence, depressing people breathless.

The dungeon is not big, and there are water droplets on the dark and smooth stone walls around it.The flickering lights make people tremble.

The surroundings of the dungeon were dark and dark, and there were no figures.

In the entire dungeon, the only place where there was movement and noise was in the deepest cell of the dungeon.

A distraught figure was lying in the dungeon, sluggish.

She was lying on the damp straw in her luxurious clothes, shabby and shabby, her hair was disheveled and unkempt, without a trace of vitality.

Until the sound of footsteps not far away, the embarrassed figure on the ground raised his head with difficulty, a pair of bleak eyes with a look of fear, terrified, uneasy as if waiting for a trial fate.

As the footsteps approached, his heart became more uneasy and his expression became more terrified.

"Tick!"

A drop of rain fell from the dungeon and landed on Wang Qin's dry face. He licked his lips and raised his head.

A figure appeared outside the cell door.

However, it was not the person Wang Qin imagined.

What appeared in his sight was a woman!
A very beautiful woman!

Wang Qin seemed to be in a daze, his head short-circuited for an instant, and he stared blankly at the woman in front of him.

beautiful!

The beauty is thrilling!

The beauty makes his brain forget to think and forget the situation he is in.

As the son of the prefect of Xunyang, Wang Qin has seen many women, and there are not a few women with peerless beauty.But the only thing that can really haunt him is the eldest princess in the middle of Beijing.

At this moment, the woman who appeared in his sight in front of him was no worse than that eldest princess!
Wearing a snow-white long dress, wrapped in mink wool, she appeared as pure and flawless as a fairy, and appeared in his sight coldly and beautifully.

beautiful!

Also very indifferent!

Like ice cubes in the cold winter, the cold makes people tremble.

In the next second, Wang Qin shuddered, his back numb as if he had fallen into an abyss, and his whole body was icy cold.

He had seen the woman in front of him before.

Not long ago, in the back mountain secret room.

this woman...

Hunted down him and his second uncle.

She, is she not dead?

After realizing this, Wang Qin had a look of horror on his face.

Prince Lin is not dead, so she who was also trapped in the back mountain secret room like Prince Lin is also safe and sound.

that……

Why is she here? !

After being briefly amazed, Wang Qin felt deep fear in his heart.

He knew very well that the woman in front of him was very dangerous.

Martial arts are extremely high!

What does she want to do? !

Wang Qin struggled to get up, but felt weak for a while.He hadn't eaten for several days, he was dizzy from hunger, his chest stuck to his back, and he couldn't lift any strength.

Just as he struggled to get up, he fell back down again, panting.

"Clap!"

The cell door opened.

Wang Qin raised his head in horror, watching this glamorous woman slowly stepping into the cell.He struggled back a few steps.

"You, who are you?!"

"You, what do you want to do?!"

If he is serious and soft, he doesn't have any momentum.

At this moment, Wang Qin is no longer the son of the high-ranking Xunyang prefect in the past.In the past few days of being detained, his arrogance has long been worn out.

In this dark and damp basement, he was tortured and exhausted.

Doorway.

Zhiyuan stepped into the cell and looked at Wang Qin in the cell coldly.There was no emotion in her expression, and she just stared at him until after a long time, she said expressionlessly: "You deserve to die."

Wang Qin trembled all over, looked up in horror, only to see a dagger and a scimitar in the hand of the woman in white at some point.

A ray of cold light shone from the dagger and scimitar, and also flashed into the fear in Wang Qin's heart.

She, she wants to kill herself? !
When this thought emerged, Wang Qin completely collapsed.

"Female, please forgive me..."

Wang Qin fell to the ground like a dead dog, wailing and screaming again and again: "I have no grievances or enmity with you... You have a grudge against my second uncle. If you want revenge, you should go to my second uncle and don't implicate me. ..."

"Let me go..."

After experiencing the torture of life and death, Wang Qin lost half of his spine.Right now, he just wants to survive.

Even if it is very frustrating to survive.

But, he has to live.

As long as you live, there is still hope.

Once dead, nothing is left.

Regarding Wang Qin's begging for mercy, Zhi Yuan looked indifferent, unmoved at all, and said indifferently, "You deserve to die too!"

"Everyone in your Wang family deserves to die!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Zhiyuan flicked his sleeves lightly, and the dagger and scimitar in his hand came out.

next second.

"what!"

There was a sharp scream.

The dagger pierced through Wang Qin's palm in an instant, stabbing his right hand into the ground.

Blood spurted out, and Wang Qin lay on the ground, screaming, his pale face full of horror.

The screams were as violent as killing a pig, and he passed out on the spot.

Zhiyuan stood where she was, watching the scene indifferently.

not moving at all.

In his eyes, there seemed to be something hesitating.

The killing intent lingered and finally disappeared.

She didn't say anything, she gradually lowered her gaze and turned around slowly.

Turned around, but stopped again.

Not far ahead, Lin Jiangnian appeared in the dungeon at some point, leaned against the wall, and watched this scene with interest.

He glanced behind the kite, and landed on her again.

"Why not just kill him?"

Zhiyuan didn't speak.

"Since we want to take revenge, wouldn't killing him directly make the Wang family end?"

Lin Jiangnian looked at her and said with a light smile, "Why didn't you kill me?"

This Wang Qin is the only member of the current generation of the Wang family. After his death, the Wang family is indeed considered to have no descendants.

He learned the news that Zhiyuan had come here alone, and guessed her purpose.I thought Wang Qin would definitely die, but I didn't expect that she didn't kill Wang Qin?

Zhiyuan said calmly: "He can't die yet."

"Why?"

Zhiyuan raised her eyes and glanced at him: "Because he is the only child of the Wang family, he still has final use value..."

Lin Jiangnian was very interested: "How to say?"

"Keep him, Wang Shiquan's only son is in your hands, he will definitely be afraid and dare not tear his face completely. If Wang Qin dies..."

After a pause, she said expressionlessly, "Wang Shiquan has no worries about the future. Once he loses his mind, he will be with you and me forever. The loss outweighs the gain!"

Lin Jiangnian listened to Zhiyuan's explanation and stared at her delicate and delicate face. After a while, he sighed: "I still underestimate you."

Indeed, now was not the time to kill Wang Qin, and Lin Jiangnian had no intention of doing so now.

As Zhiyuan said, as long as Wang Qin is alive, it will be a great constraint for Wang Shiquan.With Wang Shiquan's love for his only son, as long as Wang Qin had a chance of surviving, he would not dare to tear his face away from Lin Jiangnian.

He couldn't bear the end of the fish dying.

But once Wang Qin dies, there will be no worries for Wang Shiquan. It is difficult to guarantee what irrational things a father will do when he suffers the pain of losing his son.

"You could actually kill him."

Lin Jiangnian glanced behind her, and shook his head lightly: "Whether he dies or not, it doesn't matter much... Even if he completely breaks face with Wang Shiquan, it's okay."

For Lin Jiangnian, killing Wang Qin and completely angering Wang Shiquan is not a good choice, but it is not impossible.

If Zhiyuan really wanted to kill Wang Qin, Lin Jiangnian would not stop her.It doesn't matter whether Wang Shiquan completely broke his face with him, and Lin Jiangnian didn't take it to heart.

Zhiyuan lowered her eyes and did not speak.

Lin Jiangnian stepped forward slowly and walked up to her: "Since you don't plan to kill him, why do you come here?"

Zhiyuan still didn't answer this question, just kept silent for a while, and then spoke suddenly.

"When do you start?"

"tonight."

"tonight?"

Zhi Yuan was startled, and subconsciously raised her eyes to look at him.

"Yes."

Lin Jiangnian nodded: "Just tonight."

"Now?"

"Now."

Lin Jiang smiled young: "The person I'm waiting for has arrived, and it's time for a good show."

Zhiyuan was silent, but there was a little worry in her eyes.

"don’t worry."

Lin Jiangnian seemed to see her worry, shook his head lightly, and helped her trim her temple hair.Zhi Yuan took a step back subconsciously, but Lin Jiangnian grabbed Su's hand.

The paper kite twitched lightly, but it didn't come out.

However, she didn't seem to intend to pull away, she just resisted symbolically, and then remained silent, letting Lin Jiangnian grab her.

He lowered his head and stared quietly.

"After waiting for so long, it's time to end this matter once and for all."

Lin Jiangnian glanced at her and chuckled, "Let's go."

Zhiyuan looked at him: "Where are you going?"

"Go and see this good show!"

Lin Jiangnian paused: "You don't want to go to the prefect's mansion and witness it with your own eyes?"

"..."

Night falls.

Xunyang City, the Prefect's Mansion.

"No news yet?"

Sitting in the lobby, Wang Shiquan looked gloomy and frowned.

Outside the hall, several guards were kneeling on one knee, their brows full of fatigue.

The surrounding atmosphere is dull.

After searching for several days, the prefect's mansion sent many guards and soldiers to search Xunyang City in a carpet-like manner.Although it is true that many forces hidden in Xunyang City were found.

But there is still no news about Wang Qin.

Find a needle in a haystack!

Nothing was caught.

Wang Shiquan's face became more and more ugly. He knew very well that Wang Qin must still be in Xunyang City.

How to find it is a question.

If he can't find it for one day, Wang Qin will be in danger for one more day.

just in case……

Wang Shiquan didn't dare to continue thinking about it.

No matter how dandy, no matter how good-for-nothing, he was his only son after all.

"If any accident happens to Qin'er, all of you will come to see this officer!"

Wang Shiquan's eyes were gloomy.

At this moment, he lost a bit of elegance and a bit more violent indifference.

"Of course Qin'er is looking for it, but Linzhou... has to guard against it!"

From the side, Wang Changjin's voice came.

With a bit of a low voice: "There is a lot of movement in the direction of Linzhou. Once Lin Hengzhong really ignores the charges of rebellion and sends troops northward, there may be a tough battle then."

Wang Shiquan's face was gloomy: "I went to see Lord Inspector. Once Lin Hengzhong sends troops, he will not just sit idly by."

Wang Changjin still frowned: "What I'm worried about is, what if he can't stop Lin Hengzhong's troops?"

As soon as these words came out, Wang Shiquan fell silent.

Not a word.

No one can guarantee this matter.

After all, Yanzhou is located in the interior of the dynasty. There are not many troops stationed in Yanzhou, and there are many eunuchs' sons in the Yanzhou army. Most of them have never been on the battlefield and can only talk about military affairs on paper. When it comes to combat effectiveness, who can There is no guarantee.

Linzhou, on the other hand, is located on the border of the dynasty and has rich experience in actual combat drills all year round. Most of the soldiers under Lin Hengzhong are elites who have participated in southern Xinjiang in the past, and all of them are soldiers who have experienced hundreds of battles.Once Lin Heng is determined to mobilize troops, can these soldiers and horses in Yanzhou really stop them?

I am afraid that they already have the answer in their hearts.

The only thing that can comfort them is that once Lin Hengzhong really mobilizes troops, he will definitely become the public enemy of the dynasty.At that time, the imperial court will definitely not sit idly by. Even if Lin Hengzhong can conquer Yanzhou, he will soon be surrounded and wiped out by reinforcements from all directions.

However, this is the most ideal state.

No one can guarantee what will happen at that time.

"No matter what, always try."

Wang Changjin said in a deep voice: "The time has come to decide the fate of our Wang family!"

Wang Shiquan glanced at him: "What about Qin'er?"

Wang Changjin was silent for a while, "If he is alive, everything will be fine, in case something unexpected happens..."

"Avenge him."

Wang Shiquan's eyes changed instantly: "You mean, give up on Qin'er?"

Wang Changjin said calmly: "If that time really comes, you have no choice."

Wang Shiquan's expression became fierce, and he said angrily, "Qin'er is your nephew!"

"I know!"

Wang Changjin was still calm: "I love Qin'er too, but what can you and I do now?"

"Don't forget, you are not only Qin'er's father, but also the prefect of Xunyang County. You are responsible for your people!"

Wang Shiquan sneered, with a bit of sarcasm on his face: "Responsible?"

"If you hadn't caused this catastrophe, would you have ended up in this situation?"

"You should never, never provoke that Prince Lin's son!"

"Kill him, can you and I really afford the consequences?!"

Facing Wang Shiquan's questioning, Wang Changjin was silent for a long time.

"It's meaningless to say all this now. What you have to do is find a way to stabilize the situation!"

Wang Changjin said in a deep voice: "Qin'er will be fine, at least not now... As long as our Wang family is still there, they will not dare to touch Qin'er."

There was a long silence in the lobby.

Not long after, the sound of hurried footsteps came from outside the hall.

"Sir, yes, there is a clue about the young master!"

Hearing this, both Wang Shiquan and Wang Changjin stood up excitedly: "Where is it? Where is Qin'er?!"

"My lord, my subordinates found Miss Piaoxiang, the oiran of Liuxianglou who disappeared with the young master that day in the city, just outside."

Wang Shiquan's eyes were fixed: "Take her in quickly!"

A bewildered figure was brought into the hall by the guards.

It was the Piaoxiang girl from Liuxiang Tower. At this moment, this oiran woman looked embarrassed, her eyes were full of fear, and her whole body was trembling, as if she had been greatly stimulated.

Wang Shiquan stared at the woman in the hall, and said in a strict tone, "Where is Qin'er? Tell me!"

"..."
