When the eldest lady came to the prison with the errand arranged by the county, the prison was in chaos, it turned out that Sha Feiying was killed at night, and the eldest lady was also shocked when she heard the news, she quickly ran to her husband's prison, only to see Li Mian lying motionless in the prison, and the eldest lady screamed in fright when she saw this.

The jailer hurriedly opened Li Mian's cell door, and the eldest lady rushed in with an arrow step to help Li Mian sit up, at this time the eldest lady put her hand in front of Li Mian's nose, and she felt a trace of snort in her hand before she was relieved, and the people in the prison quickly carried Li Mian out of the cell when they saw this.

Soon the county Cheng took Lang Zhong and Yan Zuo to the prison, he looked at Li Mian who was lying on a makeshift hospital bed and asked, "Who was on duty last night?" ”

A jailer hurriedly stepped forward and knelt on the ground, "The little one is on duty." ”

"Are you alone?"

"Yes, Liu Rui didn't come to the house because of something."

Kong Xiancheng wanted to get angry at that time, there was no one in the prison and there was no one on top, only one jailer was on duty, how could this matter get out, he suppressed the anger in his heart and said: "Did you notice anything unusual at night?" ”

"The little one was on duty all night, and I didn't hear anything unusual."

At this time, Xian Cheng looked at Lang Zhong, who was treating the patient, and at this time Li Mian was woken up by Lang Zhong, he saw his wife standing anxiously beside him, while several other people looked at him with concern, "What's wrong with me?" ”

The eldest lady saw that Li Mian was awake at this time, and hurriedly said: "Husband, you fainted in the cell, what happened to you last night?" ”

"I don't know, I just felt a pain in my chest at night and fainted."

Kong Xiancheng glanced at Li Mian and turned his head to ask what was going on with that Lang Zhong, who quickly got up and replied: "The prisoner was hit in the chest by a heavy object and fainted, just because a leather device on the prisoner's chest saved his life." ”

"What leather goods?" Kong Xiancheng also felt that something was wrong.

Li Mian hurriedly took out a leather waist guard and said, "My waist is not very good on weekdays, so I wear this thing on my body at all times." After speaking, he handed his leather waist guard to Kong Xiancheng.

The eldest lady next to her was also happy to see this leather carousel, fortunately, she and Qingmei had been here yesterday, and this protective gear was clearly brought in by Qingmei yesterday.

Kong Xiancheng, who took the leather goods handed over by Li Mian, couldn't help laughing, "I didn't expect it to be this thing that saved your life." ”

At this time, he replied that Sha Feiying had been hit with a stone in the chest and died, and that only one stone had been found in Sha Feiying's cell and nothing else could be fatal.

Looking at the stone Xiancheng who was handed over, he also felt a shock, he didn't expect someone to use this to kill people, he looked at the jailer and asked, "Did you drink last night?" ”

The jailer was stunned for a moment, and then whispered, "My subordinates didn't drink." ”

Kong Xiancheng snorted and looked around, and asked him to find an empty wine jug in the corner of the wall, and then the jailer quickly knelt down and admitted his mistake, Kong Xiancheng didn't care so much, and asked someone to pull the jailer down and beat him for twenty boards.

After the twenty boards were finished, the jailer's buttocks who were secretly drinking also blossomed, and the two executioners carried him to Kong Xiancheng, who looked at the jailer whose buttocks were beaten to a bloody blur and asked, "When did you drink?" ”

This beating made the jailer tremble when he heard the voice of the county undertaker, "The subordinates only drank the wine this morning, and the subordinates did not dare to make a mistake at night, only in the morning, I estimated that the brothers who changed guards should also come, so I drank this pot of wine, and as soon as I drank it, I got drunk." ”

"Where did you buy this wine?"

"It was given by the family of the prisoner who had just been released from prison, and the family drank a few glasses with me when they left, and I was fine after eating, but I didn't dare to drink more at the time, and I only finished drinking this pot of wine this morning."

"Has anyone else been here during this time?"

"Only Lord Bo has come here to check the prison, and no one has come since then."

Kong Xiancheng nodded, "Li Mian was still very weak when he was rescued, and I was afraid that something would happen to him if he was imprisoned here, so I will temporarily lock you up in the county office." After saying that, Kong Xiancheng got up, and he knew that there must be a reason for this matter, but now is not the time to say it.

After returning to the county office, the county Cheng called Li Mian to the back hall, "You tell me honestly, is there anything wrong with the business you did with these people this time?" ”

"If I go back to the county, I was just greedy for a while, and I wanted to buy some cheap goods to sell myself, but I didn't expect to be caught by the official as soon as I made a move, but I was only a minor crime, and generally speaking, it would be fine if I paid the fine, but I didn't expect the county to lock me up for a few days, and today I almost lost my life."

"How's your family going?"

"The villain doesn't know, I've been separated from my family for many days."

"Didn't your second brother come to see you?"

"Never."

Kong Xiancheng knew what was going on at this time, and he asked someone to take Li Mian to Yan's house to take care of it.

Seeing that Li Mian was safe, the eldest lady was also slightly relieved, she asked Qingmei to go back to the house first, she was here with Li Mian, Qingmei also packed up and returned to the Li house in Baiyan Town.

After listening to Qingmei's narration, Cen Wenhan and Yingxiang didn't expect this gang of people to be so dangerous, and they dared to kill people in prison, but the important thing now is to rescue Li Mian, as long as the lord of the village comes back, everything will be easy to do, "Please prepare silver for the eldest lady to send to the eldest lady, what is needed there most now is money." ”

"Qian ......" at this time, Qingmei's face was embarrassed.

"Is there no money in the village?"

"Is this not, Steward Li is very close to the family's silver, and we can't get it."

Cen Wenhan asked in surprise: "What kind of thing is he Steward Li, does he dare to stop the master if he wants to use silver!" ”

"At the beginning, the owner of the village set up a rule, and anyone who wanted to withdraw silver from the village needed his consent, so Steward Li used this rule to make it difficult for us to save the owner of the village with silver."

"Didn't the second lady get any vouchers or anything like that from the big owner when she came back this time?"

"It's useless, the eldest sister used the owner's seal letter to take the silver, and Steward Li said that the amount of silver taken was too large, and the owner of the village must confirm it himself."

"How dare a slave be so bold, how can the owner of the big village be present in person now that he is in prison, doesn't he know this?"

He said this precisely because he knew this, he said that at this time, he could just find the second owner to get the silver, and the second uncle ...... "Qingmei stopped talking when she said this, and Cen Wenhan also knew what was going on below.

Yingxiang next to him said: "If he doesn't take the silver out, can't we smash the lock and take it?" ”

Qingmei looked up at Yingxiang, it seemed that she agreed with Yingxiang to do this, Cen Wenhan also nodded when she saw this, "It's best for you to do this." ”

As soon as Yingxiang heard that Cen Wenhan had pulled the matter on his head again, he slapped Cen Wenhan hard, "Why is it appropriate for me to do it, is it appropriate for you to do it differently?" ”

Cen Wenhan didn't bother to pay attention to Yingxiang, so he asked Qingmei: "Second lady, do you know if this Steward Li is afraid of ghosts?" ”

"Ghost!" Qingmei looked at Cen Wenhan in surprise.

At this time, Yingxiang understood what Cen Wenhan meant, and she quickly interjected: "Whether he is afraid of ghosts or not, we will give him a pretending ghost to scare him first." ”

Cen Wenhan saw that she was enlightened, he nodded and asked, "Where is the silver vault in the village?" How is the silver preserved? How do I get in? ”

Qingmei hesitated for a moment before saying: "The silver vault is in this backyard, but I don't know what's going on inside, I only know that Steward Li has a key to go in, and the other key is at Xianggong's, but this time when I went to visit the prison, Xianggong said that the key was handed over to the second uncle." ”

"Where does the second owner live on weekdays?"

"He doesn't live in Zhuangzi, he still has a place to live in the town."

"Is it possible to open the door with a key?"

"Exactly."

At this time, Cen Wenhan looked at Yingxiang and said, "Do you have a way to get that key?" ”

Yingxiang nodded and said, "It's easy, and the key is on me." ”

At this time, Cen Wenhan said to Qingmei again: "Is there anyone the second lady can trust here, I think that when the time comes, after I get the key to Steward Li, I will have to move these things, I am afraid that these people will not work hard when they see the money, so I want to ask the second lady to find a reliable person to do something." ”

"I'll figure it out."
