Chapter 63: Dong Hao

Bao Zheng, Dong Xianxian and Sun Ling'er got out of the official sedan chair and walked towards the door of the prison. Before the three of them approached, they saw a man wearing heavy armor yelling: "The sky prison is heavy, the idlers are waiting, please do not approach! Otherwise, kill them without any attention!" As soon as the officer shouted, many guards at the door immediately took their bows and arrows. It seemed that as long as the officer gave the order, they would be shot into a hornet's nest.

Bao Zheng stopped immediately. He did not expect the defense of Tianzhu, so rigorous! Bao Zheng said from afar: "In Luzhou Bao Zheng, he has the token of Lord Kou Zhun in his hand, and intends to go to Tianzhu to visit the prisoner Dong Hao!" Bao Zheng said while taking out the token given by Kou Zhun from his arms.[]

The officer looked at the token from a distance and replied, "Since there is a token from Lord Kou, come here!"

Bao Zheng and the other two walked over with the officer's permission. After the officer looked at the token carefully, he immediately returned the token with a cold expression and said impatiently: "After you go in, you must come out quickly, otherwise it will be difficult for us to do!"

Since Bao Zheng was with Zhang Yuxi, he gradually learned a lot of the rules of the Song Dynasty officialdom. Bao Zheng immediately took out a ingot of silver from his sleeve and handed it to the officer, and said with a smile: "This is Bao Zheng invited all brothers to have tea. We will definitely not delay too long after we go in!"

The officer smiled and collected the money. His attitude instantly took a 180-degree turn. He immediately called a prison soldier to lead the way for Bao Zheng. Bao Zheng couldn't help but sigh in secret that although Bao Zheng wanted to be a clean official, his own people were now in a slight state, but now he had to surrender to this decadent worldly style. The Northern Song Dynasty court almost reached the point where everyone was greedy. It was because seeing the ugly side of these government officials, Bao Zheng became more determined to clear the court and the country. Bao Zheng, Dong Xianxian and Sun Ling'er followed the prisoner and walked into the prison. The prisoner was winding and twisting in the prison, and countless prisoners in the prison were tortured to the end. Bao Zheng heard the tortured prisoners along the way, and groaned in pain. Seeing the tortured prisoners, he felt a little reluctant to look at the prisoners.

The soldier who led the way saw the expressions of Bao Zheng and Dong Xianxian, immediately smiled and said, "It seems that this is the first time you have come to the Heavenly Prison! You feel pitiful when you see these people now, but you don't know how powerful these people were before they were imprisoned. Some of them are even more vicious. I don't know how many people were once bullied by these people or even died tragically. Now they suffer these sufferings, but they are just retribution they deserve."

After hearing this, Dong Xianxian was a little dissatisfied: "Not everyone among these people are bad people. There must be many good people who have been wronged."

Bao Zheng knew that Dong Xianxian was worried about her father, so he made such remarks. He immediately grabbed Dong Xianxian and told her not to say too much. Then he clasped his fists and said, "In fact, this young man, the bad guys should have accounted for ten of the prisoners who were tortured in this heavenly prison. What the younger brother said just now is very reasonable."

The soldier immediately smiled when he heard Bao Zheng's words, as if he tortured the prisoners but did a lot of good things to eliminate harm to the people. The soldier took Bao Zheng and the other two to the door of a prison cell and said, "The person you want to meet is inside, but he is a criminal. Without orders from the superiors, we can't get the key to unlock the lock. Just stand at this door and take a look."

After the soldier finished speaking, he shook his head and walked away. Bao Zheng looked at the cell and saw that the door of the cell was composed of a fence, with some thatched grass casually laid inside. The cell was pitch black and a slight light came out from a tall and small window. Bao Zheng adapted for a long time before he saw a middle-aged man in prison uniform lying on the pile of thatched grass in the cell. Although Bao Zheng could not see the person's appearance, he saw him lying straight there, and he didn't know whether he was dead or alive.

Dong Xianxian looked inside the cell and felt a sense of emotion. She couldn't help but burst into tears. She held the pillar on the fence with her slender hands and said to the person inside: "Dad, get up and take a look! I am your daughter Xian'er! My daughter is unfilial until now, "Woooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo

The middle-aged man who was originally straight in the cell could not help but move when he heard the cry of the immortal. The man took a lot of effort to turn over. He saw him lying on the ground, using his hands as support, but crawling towards the direction of the prison door. The man had a very difficult time crawling. When he slowly approached the prison door, Bao Zheng saw his face. He saw that his face was unshaven. Although he was very heroic, he was a little pale and thin. His body was covered in blood. The prison clothes could not cover his body. In some exposed places, Bao Zheng could see shocking scars.

When Dong Xianxian saw that the man was so injured, she burst into tears immediately. Sun Ling'er was standing aside. Seeing this miserable scene, her eyes immediately felt sore, and shed tears when she held Xianxian.

When the middle-aged man saw Dong Xianxian, his face turned happy, and said in a slightly hoarse but somewhat happy tone: "I didn't expect that I, Dong Hao, could actually see my daughter, Xianxian in my lifetime. I, Dong Hao, are really dead without regrets!" Dong Hao said this, but he had already climbed to the door of the prison. He stretched out his hand covered with blood and gently stroked Xianxian's face. Although his body was weak, his expression was extremely happy.

Dong Xianxian held Dong Hao's hand and cried, "Dad! My daughter is unfilial! I didn't know until recently that you were in prison. I didn't expect that I have been persecuted like this now! Dad, don't worry! I will definitely find a way to rescue you!"

Dong Hao looked at Dong Xianxian but squeezed out a smile and said, "Xian'er, I'm satisfied if you can come to visit my father for a moment. You were sent to Luzhou by me since childhood. Now that you have grown up, you won't blame your father for being ruthless!"

Dong Xianxian shook his head and said, "Dad, Xian'er is your flesh and blood, so why would you blame you? Daddy did this back then, so it must be your hard work."

Dong Hao's face was as if he was trapped in deep memories at this moment, and he said, "Xian'er, you lost your mother from the moment you were born! I sent you to Luzhou again. You are neither loved by your mother, and I, a father, have not fulfilled my responsibility. But I have such unspeakable difficulties. Dad is a sinner in this life, and suffering this kind of suffering today is also a retribution. Xian'er, you just need to live well, don't be foolish to save me!"

Bao Zheng said respectfully at this time: "Uncle Dong, here is Bao Zheng! He is the son of Bao Lingyi, the former governor of Luzhou, and also a friend of Xianxian. As long as you tell Bao Zheng about the whole story of your arrest, as long as there is a glimmer of hope, Bao Zheng will definitely save his uncle with Xianxian with all his strength."
