40. Pangyu (14)

"Ahh

An exclamation suddenly exploded in his ears, causing Tian Qiyuan to come back to his senses from his sadness, only to see the apricot blossoms slowly falling into his arms; Tian Qiyuan, who was originally going to avoid it, suddenly saw that the thief had a hideous look on his face, and he was holding a blood-stained steel knife in his hand, looking at him with evil in his eyes. Tian Qiyuan was shocked, and he didn't dare to avoid it for a while, until Xinghua's weak voice came into his ears.

"Girl," Tian Qiyuan didn't care about the suspicion of men and women, held Xinghua's soft body, and asked with concern: "You, what's wrong with you?" ”

"Report ...... Revenge ......" The severe pain of the wound made Xinghua unable to utter a complete sentence, and finally died reluctantly with just two words.

"Girl, girl......" The warm liquid in his hand finally made Tian Qiyuan react to what was going on, and he looked at the thief's eyebrows with a frightened expression: "You...... You ......"

The thief's eyebrows smiled coldly, and he directly stuffed the knife in his hand into the stupid Tian Qiyuan, raised his sleeve to wipe the blood on his face, and shouted directly: "Come on, come on!" ”

"What's wrong?" The jailer guarding the prison quickly ran in from the outside: "What happened? ”

As soon as the jailer entered, he smelled a strong smell of blood. He secretly spat in his heart, and kept scolding bad luck in his heart.

In fact, all along, he secretly hated his colleagues in his heart for being too uninteresting, in order to tie up with An Lehou Pang Yu, they either ran to help An Lehou's mansion as a supervisor, or helped An Lehou to catch strong men everywhere to build a mansion, or else they also asked around which young and beautiful girl and daughter-in-law of the family, and forcibly abducted them to give to An Lehou. Of course, he can also understand that what those people are trying to do is just to get An Lehou's blue eyes and have a good future; But what kind of mistake did he make, he could only do the errand of guarding the prisoners - although all the prisoners in the prison were pressed to build a mansion for An Lehou, and only the unlucky Tian Qiyuan was left.

Every time he thought of this, the jailer looked at Tian Qiyuan even more unpleasantly. But who would have thought that it was not easy for An Lehou to finally think of Tian Qiyuan, and someone from Anlehou's Mansion finally came to the prison, and he could also have a chance to express himself, but what did he see: that An Lehou's concubine would actually fall into Tian Qiyuan's arms, and the strong smell of blood came from that direction, and Tian Qiyuan was holding a blood-stained steel knife in his hand.

"He," the thief raised his hand and pointed at Tian Qiyuan, and shouted loudly: "Tian Qiyuan, he killed the concubine Xinghua of the Hou Ye, and you still don't go to find Taishou." ”

"No, it's not me, it's not me......" Tian Qiyuan reacted at this time, threw down the knife in his hand, and at the same time threw the dead apricot blossom on the ground, shook his head, and kept retreating.

"Later," Yu Xiaoyu, who heard this, was already able to figure out what was going on, so he said: "Chenzhou Taishou decided that you killed Xinghua, so he sentenced you to death?" ”

Tian Qiyuan nodded: "That Chenzhou Taishou only listened to the words of the head of Pang Mansion and the guards, and refused to listen to my explanation at all, and decided that I had kidnapped the Xinghua girl in order to escape from the prison, but I didn't expect to escape and finally killed the Xinghua girl in anger, and hastily sentenced me to be executed." ”

Yu Xiaoyu nodded, and said secretly: "In this way, it should be that the little crab has already made a plan to kill Natian Qiyuan; As for the reason why Chen Zhou Taishou judged this case so hastily and in such a hurry, it should have been instructed by Xiao Crab. Is Zhanzhao ......?"

"But," Tian Qiyuan's tears flowed, and his face was full of sadness: "I, I am really wrongedβ€”how can I harm an innocent life; And my lady, she, she ......"

"Okay, don't cry," Yu Xiaoyu, who was interrupted from his train of thought, said helplessly: "If you are really wronged, then there will always be a day when you will be wronged." During this time, you should think about what you will do in the future, Chenzhou City, you will not be able to go back for a while......"

"Madam," Tian Qiyuan saw that Yu Xiaoyu seemed to be planning to leave, and hurriedly said in a loud voice: "Can you stay, the student has something to ask for." ”

"What's the matter?" Yu Xiaoyu turned his head and looked at Tian Qiyuan puzzled.

"The righteous man who saved me yesterday," mentioning this matter, Tian Qiyuan seemed to be a little embarrassed: "The skill seems to be quite ......"

Looking at Tian Qiyuan's appearance of wanting to speak and stopping, Yu Xiaoyu frowned: "Then what, what's the problem?" ”

"I wonder if I can ask that righteous man to help me redress my grievances?" Tian Qiyuan gritted his teeth and simply said it directly.

Looking at the expression on Tian Qiyuan's face, he unintentionally revealed a look of Zhanzhao helping him as a matter of course, Yu Xiaoyu suddenly understood: "I don't know how Tian Gongzi plans to let him help you redress your grievances?" ”

Yu Xiaoyu's deliberately focused four words "redress grievances and be the master" made Tian Qiyuan stunned for a moment, as if he was thinking about how to answer this question.

"It's the government's business to redress grievances, what can he do?" However, without waiting for Tian Qiyuan to answer, Yu Xiaoyu directly said what he thought in his heart: "But you just named him to find him, do you want him to directly solve the An Lehou for you?" ”

Tian Qiyuan's silence gave Yu Xiaoyu a feeling of "that's what he thinks".

"I can't contact him now," Yu Xiaoyu's voice also cooled: "Let's talk about this matter when you can meet him." As soon as the words fell, Yu Xiaoyu turned around and returned directly to the broken temple - although Yu Xiaoyu also wanted to leave here directly to find Zhanzhao, but after all, he was a little worried: if Zhanzhao came back here and didn't see her, he would be fooled by Tian Qiyuan's rhetoric and really go to find the little crab's direct bad luck - even if this possibility is very small, it must be guarded against in advance. Therefore, although Yu Xiaoyu's heart was angry, he did not leave directly.

Yu Xiaoyu was wandering around in the main hall of the broken temple, thinking about Tian Qiyuan's affairs, and felt that Zhanzhao's behavior was not worth it: Zhanzhao risked his life to break into the prison and save Tian Qiyuan, who should have been beheaded at three o'clock in the afternoon today; But as a result, Tian Qiyuan didn't care about Zhanzhao's life or death at all, and now he even wanted Zhanzhao to directly kill the little crab for him to vent his personal anger.

Although Yu Xiaoyu had also stringed up with Zhan Zhao to clean up Pang Yu, in the end, he never thought about letting Zhan Zhao kill him in private - how big the crime of killing Qin Cha was, even if Yu Xiaoyu had not studied the law of the Great Song Dynasty, he still knew it in his heart.

"That's it, he is still known as a scholar," Yu Xiaoyu bent down and picked up a small stone, threw it outside the hall, and muttered in a disdainful voice: "Doesn't he understand, that little crab is ordered to give relief, and it can be regarded as a Qincha, no matter how he dies, it is governed by national law, and others can say more." If Zhan Zhao really did him in private, what would be the consequences, would you Tian Qiyuan not know? When the time comes, will you Tian Qiyuan help Zhanzhao carry this matter? Or can you, Tian Qiyuan, risk your life to rob Zhanzhao out of prison? Hmph, is it possible that in the eyes of your Tian Qiyuan, your life is worth money, but Zhanzhao's life is not worth anything? ”

Thinking of this, Yu Xiaoyu felt a little sympathetic to Jin Yuxian, the lady of the Tian family who had never met before-it was obvious that Tian Qiyuan did not believe in her innocence......

"It seems that this Tian family is still a little far away, don't count me and Zhanzhao into it when the time comes." Yu Xiaoyu secretly made up his mind in his heart to stay away from Tian Qiyuan's family: "Alas, I don't know when Zhanzhao will come to me?" Zhan Zhao, Zhan Zhao, do you know that if it weren't for the fear that you would be tricked into it by that surnamed Tian and affect me, I would have run away a long time ago, would I still be hungry here? ”

Here, Yu Xiaoyu was thinking about how to get rid of the Tian family completely, and Zhanzhao was carefully probing the actual situation of Chenzhou City.

The situation in Chenzhou City is obviously not optimistic: all the rice, noodles and other grains on the market have been sold, and vegetables and meat have basically disappeared. Of course, those with a well-to-do family can be a little stronger - after all, they have the financial resources to save a little food in advance, and they can barely support themselves; As for those who are poorly off, they have to go to the nearby mountains to dig up some wild vegetables to fill their stomachs, but now, even the wild vegetables on the nearby mountains have been dug up.

Zhan Zhao held the sword and stood at the corner of the street not far from the soft red hall. Looking at the magnificent, carved and painted mansion in front of him, thinking of those people with yellow faces and thin muscles and poor meals, Zhanzhao's heart burned with raging anger, and he really wanted Lord Bao to come immediately and quickly solve the predicament of Chenzhou.

However, Zhan Zhao soon discovered a very puzzling thing: last night, he rescued Tian Qiyuan, who was supposed to be beheaded at three o'clock in the afternoon today, from Chenzhou Prison, and he had already expected that Tian Qiyuan would be hunted down in the city today; Even, Zhan Zhao had already figured out how to get the truth of Tian Qiyuan's murder case from that chaos; However, to his complete surprise, the manhunt he had expected did not materialize......

"Could it be that Chen Zhou Taishou suddenly discovered his conscience?" Zhan Zhao asked himself secretly, but quickly shook his head. Although he still doesn't know why Tian Qiyuan is considered to be the murderer of Anlehou's concubine, judging from the fact that Chenzhou Taishou hastily closed the case, Chenzhou Taishou should have taken refuge in Anlehou, so he would judge a life so hastily.

However, the prisoner who was supposed to be executed today suddenly disappeared, but Chenzhou Taishou was not in a hurry at all, which made Zhanzhao feel incomprehensible and at the same time lightly relieved, I only hope that Chenzhou Taishou and An Lehou really don't care whether Tian Qiyuan is dead or alive, in that case, Tian Qiyuan's master and servant in the Guanyin Temple and Yu Xiaoyu can be safer.

In the evening, Yu Xiaoyu, who had been hungry for a day, finally saw Tian Yang's who had disappeared since the morning.

"Mrs. Yu," Tian Yang, whose face was gloomy, greeted Yu Xiaoyu: "Are you hungry?" The old woman got some food from outside, so you can take a bite to eat. ”

Tian Yang said, and actually took out a white-flour steamed bun from the close-fitting cloth bag and stuffed it into Yu Xiaoyu's hand.

Yu Xiaoyu pinched the steamed bun in his hand, although it was already cold, it was obviously much softer than what Zhanzhao had left for him before, and he couldn't help but feel a strange feeling in his heart: "Old mother, where have you been today, why haven't you seen you for a day?" ”

Hearing Yu Xiaoyu's question, Tian Yang's eyes couldn't help but tilt to the outside of the Guanyin Temple, remembering that when she had just come back, she met Tian Qiyuan outside the temple; And Tian Qiyuan told her a thousand times, saying that she must not let Yu Xiaoyu know that she went to Chenzhou City today.

Although Tian Yang didn't know why Tian Qiyuan asked her to hide an extremely inconspicuous thing from her life-saving benefactor, Tian Yang, who was used to listening to orders, still decided to follow the instructions of her little master: "What else can the old woman do, just go out and find food." By the way, madam, hasn't the old man with you come back yet? ”

Even though he felt that Tian Yang's expression and words were a little strange, Yu Xiaoyu still didn't pay too much attention to it: "Well, he still has his own things to do." ”

However, what Yu Xiaoyu didn't expect was that she didn't pay attention to it at this time, but she almost took her life.
