Yuan Chang felt that he had only closed his eyes and slept for a long time, and there was a burst of itching sensation from his nose.

"Ahh

Yuan Chang opened his eyes with difficulty, only to find that it was Liu Xi who playfully held his hair and made trouble on the tip of his nose. Yuan often puffed out his mouth, like a coquettish child.

"Xi'er, let the family sleep for a while!"

Seeing Yuan Chang's cute expression, Liu Xi almost couldn't help but agree. However, thinking about the consequences of doing so, she still relented and dragged Yuan Chang out of the bed.

"Brother Chang, hurry up! When you came back last night, you told the people that before Feng Xiao left, let him do more work, so that the family could wake you up early. Now the hour has passed, and it is almost noon. Brother Chang, if you don't get up again, Sister Jiang will laugh at others again. ”

Yuan Chang understood, and because of this, Liu Xi hardened his heart and called him up.

If Yuan Chang had spent more time in her room, everyone would have known what would happen. Yuan Chang felt a little emotion in his heart, when the two were not completely integrated together, Liu Xi was obedient to him, and she would not refute what Yuan Chang said. Now, Liu Xi has the consciousness of Yuan Chang's wife, and she will no longer only know how to nod like she did in love. However, Yuan Chang did not feel unhappy, but felt that this was a husband and wife. Instead of treating women like slaves, as many men do.

"Smack!"

Yuan Chang quickly kissed Liu Xi's face, got up and dressed, he is not a big man in feudal society, and he still needs women to serve.

"Brother Chang, you are so bad, you make people saliva all over their faces. ”

Liu Xijiao sneered, but her face was full of shyness and joy. She likes Yuan Chang's love very much, no matter how many women Yuan Chang has around in the future, as long as she still treats her like now, she will be satisfied.

When Yuan Chang came out of Liu Xi's room, Guo Jia, Zhao Yun, Dian Wei, Han Sui, Ximen Blowing Snow, Hua Manlou and Sikong Xingxing were already waiting in the courtyard. Seeing a little sweat on their faces from time to time, it was obvious that they had already cultivated. Although they slept so late last night like Yuan Chang, they would not interrupt their daily cultivation.

Ye Gucheng and Lu Xiaofeng had already returned to Penglai Island, gathered the three hundred strong people on the island and prepared to pull them to the sea near the provincial village to start training. As for their relatives, they will remain on the island, and when Yuan Chang has more power in the future, he will bring them back to land.

"Fengxiao, you are about to go to Yecheng, before this, help me deal with some more things, without you, I am an incompetent county commander. Haha!"

"Hey!"

Guo Jia sighed helplessly, he didn't expect that before leaving, Yuan Chang would exploit his labor. But there is no way, Yuan Chang still has to show an incompetent appearance in front of the people, and the previous pretense was not to deceive Luo Yuan and He Yao, although the cancer in Dongping County has been eradicated. However, there are still mountains on top of Yuan Chang, so he can't relax.

"Blowing snow, full of buildings, picking stars, the three of you don't show up in front of people for the time being, and after Gucheng and Xiaofeng come back, you will set off for Chang'an. ”

At the beginning, Yuan Chang was going to let Zhao Yun and Dian Wei go to Chang'an to take Cai Yong's family away. However, after having the five people of Ye Gucheng, Yuan Chang gave up this idea, after all, he had the ability to disguise himself as a star, and it was easier for him to be competent for this task.

"Yes, my lord!"

Subsequently, Yuan Chang and the five people went to the county office. Guo Jia had already decided to leave in three days, and taking advantage of these three days, Yuan Chang decided to review the prison in Dongping County. Unjust, false and wrongful cases have existed in all dynasties, even famous ones such as Di Renjie and Bao Zheng are no exception, after all, they are human beings, not gods, and sometimes the conditions that come out of appearance cannot make them perfect.

"By the way, Zilong, has the iron master you asked you to look for already here?"

Yuan Chang seemed to suddenly remember something, and turned to Zhao Yun to ask.

Yuan Chang wanted to make something, so he inquired about it before, and learned that there was an iron master fifty miles south of the county, so he asked Zhao Yun to invite him. The status of the craftsman is undoubtedly very low in feudal society, equivalent to slaves, even the famous swordsmiths in history, although they are very famous, but the low status has not changed. Yuan Chang said that as long as the ability of the blacksmith satisfied him, he would let him serve as a treasurer in the county government, although the position was low, he was also an official. Therefore, the master of iron-striking agreed without saying a word.

"My lord, he has settled his family and will arrive tomorrow. ”

Yuan Chang nodded, indicating that he understood. The iron master Yuan Chang will be of great use, Yuan Chang must know what the other party's ability is, otherwise, he will not rest assured that he will hand over the task to him.

Yuan Chang and the five did not go to the county office, but went directly to the prison.

"Your Excellency!"

Seeing that the prefectural magistrate suddenly came to the prison, the jailer who was guarding him ran over in fear and saluted. They secretly rejoiced in their hearts, fortunately they were not lazy today, otherwise this position would not have been kept. Don't look at the position of the jailer, it can't even be compared to the officer, but it is a real oil and water department.

Some people who have some money in the family want to come to visit the prison, so they have to give some benefits to the jailers. This time came and went, but the jailer was the most lucrative position in the county government.

"Well, yes, good job. ”

Yuan Chang tapped his chin proudly and encouraged in a flat tone. Although Yuan Chang is so, it is good news in the eyes of the two jailers, Yuan Chang is the son of the Yuan family, the third prince of the fourth world, and it is already a great thing to be able to encourage them. Moreover, Yuan Chang did not express his dissatisfaction with them, apparently they were able to keep their positions.

"Lord Prefectural Commander, please come here, the warden Tong Wei is also inspecting inside, let the little one lead the way. ”

One of the jailers seemed to be more senior, nodding his head to signal the other jailer to continue guarding the gate, while he nodded and gave Yuan Chang a flattering expression.

Yuan Chang didn't say a word, but his eyes were looking at the prison of this era.

The prisons seen in the TV series before the crossing are gloomy, dark, damp, and rancid, like hell on earth. As far as Yuan Chang saw with his own eyes, there is no difference from the TV series.

"Lady Tong, the prefectural commander has come to inspect it. ”

Before he could see the figure, the jailer had already shouted loudly. It sounds like the prefectural commander is coming and the warden is coming to greet him. In fact, the jailer did this to remind the warden that if he was doing something he shouldn't be doing at this time, he should clean up in advance.

Yuan Chang and the others are not stupid, so they naturally know his intentions, but this kind of trivial matter is harmless, and they will not blame him for it.

"The county ordered the lord to come to inspect, and his subordinates were not welcomed, and I hope that the lord will forgive his sins. ”

The warden and two jailers trotted in front of Yuan Chang and greeted him cautiously. It's no wonder that the warden is like this, Dongping County's county Cheng Luoyuan, county lieutenant He Yao, and chief bookkeeper Sang Qiu were all killed by Yuan Chang, or Guo Jia. Now that he is in the prison, the warden will of course be terrified.

Originally, the warden generally did not stay in the prison, after all, who wants to stay in this kind of place all day. However, since Luo Yuan and the three were removed, the warden was terrified, afraid that one day it would be his turn. Therefore, after that, I would stay in the prison every day honestly, and I would not go home until the time came.

And today, the county magistrate suddenly appeared in the prison without prior notice, fortunately he stayed here these days, otherwise, it is estimated that it will be difficult to escape punishment this time.

"This county order is just to come to inspect as usual, you don't have to be so nervous, Tong Wei can accompany this county order, and others can do whatever they want. ”

Yuan Chang gave the order, and several jailers dispersed.

"Your Excellency has wronged!"

"Spare your life!"

Some of the prisoners in the cells seemed to know that a big man was coming, and they shouted one after another. Anyone who says that he has been wronged, or begs for mercy, is everything.

"What kind of noise, if you quarrel again, the uncle will reward you with a whip. ”

A jailer seemed to forget that Yuan Chang was here, picked up the whip and waved it at will, and after a crackling sound, those prisoners also knew how powerful the jailer was, and they were all silent for fear of being punished.

Don't look at these jailers as lowly positions, but their prestige is not weak in history.

Zhou Bo, the founding general of the Western Han Dynasty, was imprisoned for being falsely accused of rebellion. The prison guards did not give him preferential treatment because he was a prince, but on the contrary, they humiliated and abused him in every way like ordinary prisoners. Zhou Bo had no choice but to bribe the jailer with his daughter. When the jailer got the money, he immediately changed his attitude, and also taught Zhou Bo to let his daughter-in-law intercede with Emperor Wen. Originally, Emperor Wen of the Han Dynasty had no tangible evidence for Zhou Bo's rebellion, but he just wanted to frustrate the prestige of this group of old ministers, and now when he saw his daughter interceding, his mother Empress Dowager Bo also said that Zhou Bo could not rebel, so he fell into the boat, not only released Zhou Bo, but also restored his title. After Zhou Bo was released from prison, he sighed and said: I once commanded an army of millions, and I thought I was extremely noble, and I was a very noble minister, how did I know that a small jailer was so noble!

It can be seen that the power of the jailer is not as high as that of a high-ranking official.

"Bastard, this county order reads the way of Confucius and Mencius, knows benevolence and righteousness, and prisoners are also human beings, how can you be treated like this, if there is a next time, this county order will not be spared. ”

"Yes, yes, the villain knows his mistake!"

The powerful jailer bowed down in horror and admitted his mistake, but in his heart, he scolded Yuan Chang's ancestors for the eighteenth generation. If these people are all in prison, what kind of benevolence and righteousness will they be treated? If they do not use torture, how will the prisoner confess? If you want to solve the case, wait a few more decades! This jailer secretly prayed in his heart that it would be best for this county order to be sent to prison for corruption and perversion of the law, and then he would serve him with a whip to see if he dared to say anything about benevolence and righteousness to himself. However, the jailer was afraid that he would be disappointed, and he would never have such a chance. Yuan Chang has watched so many TV series, how can he not know the situation in prison, even if he is really convicted, how can Yuan Chang be honestly sent in. When he crosses the name of a fake?

Yuan Chang, under the leadership of the warden Tong Wei, inspected all the way. Half of the inmates in the cell had a vegetable, numb eyes, and it seemed that the whole world had lost color. Even if Yuan Chang arrived, it only made them raise their eyebrows, and then they didn't react. These prisoners have been locked up for years, or more, before they become like this.

And some of the prisoners who shouted earlier looked at Yuan Chang with flickering eyes. These prisoners have been imprisoned for a short time, a few months or less than a year, some of them are really wronged, and some of them are blindly coaxing, hoping that Yuan Changfa will let them go.

"What's going on with those two people?"

Suddenly, Yuan Chang saw that there were only two people in a fairly clean cell. Seeing that both of them are not very old, they are only seventeen or eighteen years old, their eyes are very firm, full of enthusiasm for life. However, they didn't shout along, and they didn't seem to have any hope for Yuan Chang.

Warden Tong Wei frowned slightly, as if he was hesitating about something, glanced at Guo Jia beside Yuan Chang, seemed to have made some decision, and opened his mouth to speak.
