Chapter 167 The Emperor's Palace Branch Hall

  In the gloomy and dark dungeon, the only light is the oil lamp on the wall, and several people are photocopied on the wall, sometimes long and sometimes short.

   "Brother Ma, sister-in-law, why are you locked up too?" Zhang Konghu was a little excited, he didn't expect to meet his colleagues here, how did he say that?

  Meet an old friend in a foreign land.

   Ma Zhuo and his wife were sitting in another cell, separated from Zhang Konghu by a thick log.

   "Are you...Kong Hu?" Zhang Konghu disguised his appearance, but Ma Zhuo and his wife didn't recognize it for a while, but they could hear it from Zhang Konghu's tone.

  Zhang Konghu nodded vigorously.

   "It's me."

  Ma Zhuo and his wife regretted so much. Even Zhang Konghu, a fool like Zhang Konghu, knew that he had to disguise his identity to change his appearance when he went out. How could the couple dare to use their original appearance to sell books.

   "You still know how to change your appearance?"

   "I learned from Brother Jiang. In order to observe the most real Kyushu, Brother Jiang often disguised himself to go out. I thought that as a commander, I should look like Brother Jiang, so I also disguised myself when I went out."

   Kong Hu's heart was pierced.

   "I was arrested because I said something that I will say tomorrow and violated the 'Ming' taboo. Is it because of this too?"

   "Bad, almost." Ma Zhuo and his wife dodged their eyes, not daring to look directly into Zhang Konghu's sincere eyes.

   "Kong Hu, you also know that our husband and wife often write some essays, and then organize them into books for sale. They probably violated Dayong's taboo and were arrested." After all, he has literary skills, and Commander Zhuo spoke very euphemistically.

   "Yes, yes." Commander Ma nodded, "Our book is very popular. Other books have readers saying that the writing here is not good and the writing is not good there. Only our book, everyone who reads it says thank you to the author. The author has worked hard."

   "So that's how it is. Dayong is really disgusting, even literary authors like you are arrested!" Zhang Konghu said angrily, although he didn't know what books the Ma Zhuo and his wife were selling, but he knew that the Ma Zhuo and his wife would not lie to him, they must be very good authors.

   "Little brother, why were you arrested?" The cell was shared by two people, and a little monk was in the same room as Zhang Konghu.

   This is a fledgling little monk who only has the sixth level of Qi training.

   "The official guard stopped me on the street, and he couldn't say the word 'Ming'. I said I understood."

   Zhang Konghu reacted for a while before he figured out why he was arrested.

"oh."

   "But it doesn't matter, I have a brother, he will save me." The little monk didn't worry about his situation at all, "Let me tell you, big brother, I have a brother named Xiaomu, who must have traveled from a big family. He knows a lot of things and knows many incredible spells. He knew that I was imprisoned, and he would definitely come to save me."

  As soon as he finished speaking, he saw a figure coming through the wall and appearing in the dungeon.

   "Ah Yan, I'm here to save you."

   "Xiao Mu, you really came!"

  The two brothers embraced warmly, as if reunited after a long absence.

   "Xiaomu, can you save this big brother too? He was wronged too."

   "It's easy to say, this cell is like entering no one's land for me." Xiaomu was complacent, this feeling of being relied on and trusted is good.

   "Brother Mu, long time no see." Zhang Konghu greeted Xiaomu politely.

  The Ma Zhuo and his wife next door also greeted Xiaomu: "Commander Mu, long time no see."

  Xiaomu froze in place.

  Why there are Zhang Konghu and Ma Zhuo couple here.

  Including him, four of the six commanders of the Human Emperor's Palace are here.

  What about the meeting?

   Commander Mu likes to hang out among the little monks, pretending to be an expert, but he never thought that when he pretended to be an expert, he would run into three of his colleagues.

   "Kong Hu, I'm here to save you." An eager voice came from the air, and the surrounding atmosphere suddenly became dull and depressing, making people unconsciously think of the bad side.

   "Kong Hu, you are confused, why do you have to be locked up here? With your ability, why don't you just run away?" Zhang Konghu, as the only friend of this fit monk, rushed here in a hurry after hearing that Zhang Konghu was caught by the **** Dayong.

   "No, I won't go." Zhang Konghu shook his head firmly, rejecting the proposal, "If I want to run away, wouldn't I be a fugitive? I'm actually a criminal?"

   "I won't go."

   "Yonghuang foolishly made such an order, which is obviously wrong. Why do you follow him and continue to make mistakes?" The fit monk didn't understand Zhang Konghu.

   "Yonghuang is the king of a country, he can't make mistakes."

   "...is that your fault?"

   "I'm not wrong."

   "Since Emperor Yong is right and you are right, why are you locked up here?"

   "I don't know. I'm thinking about this problem." Zhang Konghu shook his head stubbornly, "I won't leave until I don't understand."

  The fit cultivator covered his face, Commander Liu asked Zhang Konghu to read something, but he was still reading books on rational thinking.

  Look at the present, a good fool has turned into a stubborn fool, and he can't be persuaded.

  The fit monk said: "You are the only one of our five commanders to do things, and the four of us are fishing for fish. If you don't leave, brother Jiang will rely on us to patrol Kyushu?"

  After the fit monk finished speaking, he felt three cold eyes staring at him from behind.

   "Commander Huang, long time no see." Commander Mu greeted warmly first.

   "Commander Huang, long time no see." Ma Zhuo and his wife smiled gently.

  The fit monk froze in place, looked at Commander Mu, then turned his head stiffly, and looked at Ma Zhuo and his wife next door who greeted him kindly.

  The fit monk crouched in a corner, lost in thought.

   "Sure enough, I have never done things as I wished. What is the purpose of a person's life? Fame and fortune are just a fleeting moment. Life is full of difficulties. Even complaining in the prison and speaking ill of colleagues behind their backs can be heard by colleagues..."

  There are a total of five combined leaders in the Hall of Human Emperors, all gathered here at this moment.

  Hearing movement outside the cell, Commander Mu and Commander Huang disappeared.

   "Go in!" The official's arrogant voice came from outside the cell.

   "Three more were caught, so we've got all the indicators." The official officer was relieved. Hearing that Yonghuang was coming here for an inspection, the higher-ups ordered that enough people must be caught, even if they were forced to do so.

   Originally, there was no need to arrest so many people, but Yonghuang always felt that there were many people who had objections to him. Officials from all over the country had to fabricate various reasons to lock people in, reaching the number in Yonghuang's heart.

   "My lord, Cao Min is really just a fruit seller."

   "Yes, yes, I hope your lord will be clear about it. Grassmen live their lives according to their duties. They have sold biscuits for more than ten years. How can they have the courage to criticize the Holy Majesty? This is just a biscuit eater, and he dare not criticize the Holy Majesty."

  The officials refused to listen to the pleas of these troublemakers, and locked them in directly.

   "There are not enough cells." After imprisoning the biscuit seller and the fruit seller, the officials found that the biscuit eater had no place to be locked up.

   "Squeeze and lock him here." The official sent the sesame seed eater to Zhang Konghudai's cell.

   "Good guy, it's so lively."

  As soon as Jiang Li entered the cell, he saw Zhang Konghu, Ma Zhuo and his wife, and Commander Mu and Commander Huang who were hiding.

  Usually I can’t make it all together, but unexpectedly I can make it together in the prison.

  Dayong Dungeon, also known as the branch hall of the Emperor's Hall.
