Chapter Forty-Eight: Arrest
Not long after breakfast, Jing'er brought back a piece of news: Tan Tai was arrested.
Yesterday, he accompanied King Yi out of the city to drink and have fun in the villa of a famous prostitute. Early in the morning, the maid found the famous prostitute dead in bed, and Tan Tai was sleeping next to him with a dagger in his hand. Because they came anonymously, the maid didn't know her identity, so she immediately ran to report to the official.
Qin Ji had already prepared, and a group of catchers rushed to the other garden to arrest people, and King Yi was afraid of being contaminated with bad luck, so he had already disappeared without a trace.
Tan Tai was twisted to the yamen, and before he woke up from the wine, he sprinkled a meal, and was rewarded with a board by Jing Zhaoyin.
Jing'er said: "Qin Sheren ordered, the carriage is waiting outside, if the young lady wants to see, she can leave immediately, thinking that Tan Tai should be sober for a while." ”
Yu Mingzhi put down the book, "Let's go, let's go now." ”
Guo Long is not at home, so he saves the trouble of explaining. Qi's mother thought that she was going out with Qin Sheren again, so she didn't persuade her, and only sighed, "It's good that my uncle loves Miss."
She changed into a light and easy silver tunic-patterned dark blue beard, tied up her long hair, and looked heroic. Hufu spread from the northwest to the Central Plains about ten years ago, and has always been loved by men, women and children, and many people love to wear it today. When you go to watch the execution in prison, you naturally can't wear a long dress with fancy branches.
As soon as she went out, she saw Yang Run holding Jin Wei's hand and hurriedly jumping down from the carriage.
"Sister Baozhi!" Yang Runran was out of breath, but he couldn't suppress the smile on his face, "I heard that Tan Tai was arrested, but is there such a thing?"
Jin Wei also stared at Yu Mingzhi nervously, not daring to speak.
Yu Mingzhi gently stroked Yang Run's back, gave her a smooth breath, and smiled: "It is true, because I dislike it for murder." ”
Yang Run and Jin Wei cheered together, and then hugged together to celebrate, "It's so good, it's great, you don't have to marry Tan Tai's bastard boy!"
Yang Run said again: "I heard early in the morning that I was escorting Tan Tai from the street, and that kid was stained with blood, so I immediately took Jin Wei to you to inquire about the news." I may be relieved this time, thank you Sister Baozhi. ”
Yu Mingzhi said: "Thank you for what I did, I just passed on a word, and it was the Qin She people who really did the work." ”
"Qin She is a good person!" Yang Run jumped up and hugged Yu Mingzhi.
Yu Mingzhi thought to himself how Qin Ji would feel if he heard someone sincerely praise him as a good person?
Jin Wei said: "I still have to thank Sister Baozhi." As she spoke, she saluted, "My father and mother said that if Tan Tai really killed someone, this marriage would be over." ”
"Okay, okay," Yu Mingzhi squeezed her hand, "In the future, you have to live happily, if you have difficulties, let's talk about them and think of a way together, don't hold it in your heart alone, but also learn to fight for yourself, I heard Qin Sheren say, if you didn't test Tan Tai, he wouldn't have thought of a good way to deal with him." ”
Jin Wei blinked, faintly filled with tears, "I remember, Sister Baozhi." ”
"Hmm. Yu Mingzhi smiled and nodded, thinking of the many secrets that Tan Tai had mastered, and had no intention of celebrating this great event with Yang Run and Jin Wei, "I have other things to do, and I will get together with my two sisters another day." ”
Yang Run reluctantly pulled her arm, "What's the matter with my sister?"
"I don't know much about the Qin Sheren's side. ”
Jin Wei pulled Yang Run and said, "What's the news about Xu? Don't delay Sister Baozhi." ”
Yang Run tapped the tip of her nose and said with a smile: "Okay." ”
Yu Mingzhi nodded to them, boarded the carriage sent by Qin Ji, and took her to the back door of the mansion after a short time, and then the long-waiting catcher took her around the courtyards and gardens to the most terrifying prison of the mansion.
As soon as I entered, the hut on the left side of the door had been cleaned, except for a pair of tables and chairs, and the sunlight poured in through the small windows, dissipating the coldness of the place. Qin Ji sat at the table at this time, smiled and waved at her, and put down the teacup.
"The branches are a little slow. He said.
Yu Mingzhi said: "It seems that Tan Tai was arrested and made a big fuss, and Yang Run and Jin Wei also knew about it, and came to Yang's house to ask me about the news." ”
Qin Ji looked like he was winning, and said, "Deliberately." He looked at Yu Mingzhi's dress and praised: "Zhizhi's bearded clothes are good-looking, very good-looking." ”
Yu Mingzhi deliberately teased him: "Yang Run said that you are a good person." ”
"Huh. Qin Ji shook his head and smiled, "Praise and praise." ”
Yu Mingzhi looked outside, the light in the depths of the prison was not very good, it was black, he couldn't see anything clearly, and there was a faint smell of stench and blood. She asked, "Where is Tan Tai locked up and when will he be interrogated?" And also...... Where's Wan Bao Yang?!"
"It's all down there. Qin Ji stepped on the ground covered with hay, "When Jing Zhaoyin comes, let's go over." However, the smell below is not very good, if you feel unwell, let me know as soon as possible. ”
Yu Mingzhi turned around and returned to the door of the prison, took a deep breath of the still fresh air, and then returned to the hut, "I'm not afraid. ”
"It is worthy of being the daughter of Yu Tingshi. A middle-aged man in a red official uniform clapped his hands and strode over.
"Kyung Zhao Yin. Yu Mingzhi bowed, this person had met twice when his father returned to Beijing to report on work, so he recognized him.
Jing Zhaoyin said: "The virtuous niece doesn't have to be polite. Qin Sheren, this is going down to interrogate Tan Tai?"
"Yes, without further ado. Qin Ji got up, his expression was indifferent, but Rumo's eyes flashed with light.
"Please, two. After Jing Zhaoyin finished speaking, he led the way.
Yu Mingzhi watched the jailer struggling to lift the secret door leading to the dungeon, his heart was like a turbulent wave, and he gritted his teeth.
Qin Ji glanced at it, reached over and took her hand, holding it in his palm.
