Anling City is very large, so big that there is only one corner of it in the entire Yiyang County Town, but in such a large capital, Yu Shu can be hit by the same person twice in a row when she is unlucky, and she is still the one she least wants to meet, which has to make her suspect that she and this surnamed Xue are probably still a bit of ape dung.

Just as he glared at her, Yu Shu couldn't fool himself anymore and thought that he didn't recognize her, so he looked away in embarrassment.

Xue Rui glanced at Yu Shu twice, then withdrew his gaze, straightened his face, and waved to the subordinate who was waiting for his order:

"Take them all."

"Yes, sir."

The group of officers and soldiers rushed forward to capture the Evergreen Gang, and a group of gambling Yike people all hid by the wall tremblingly, Yu Shu saw the fight, no exception, picked a safe place to stand, and from time to time glanced at Xue Rui, and his heart was a little drumming.

This private gambling affair seems to be more serious than she imagined, and the backstage of the Evergreen Gang has been dismissed and investigated, and it should be a period of crackdown recently, so I don't know how the government will deal with them as a gambling participant.

When the officers and soldiers subdued the thugs in the courtyard and the scene calmed down, the two Yi Shi, who had been invited to sit in the town, hesitated to step forward, saluted Xue Rui, and said respectfully:

"This, Lord Xue."

Xue Rui put his hands behind his back and glanced at the two of them.

As for Song Yishi, who ignored Yu Shu's test question before, he smiled at this time: "The two of us are Yi Shi in the Shangyi Pavilion in this Qiu Gui Fang, and we were invited by the Evergreen Gang to be guests today, and we don't know much about this gambling Yi." My lord, can you let us go back first? ”

"What do you say?" Xue Rui wanted to ask a rhetorical question with a smile, suddenly lowered his face, and ordered in a deep voice to the officers and soldiers on standby:

"Take them all back and take them into custody first."

There was a commotion in the backyard suddenly, and the officers and soldiers came up to drive them away, gathered all the thirty or so people, and counted the number of people. Lined up in two teams, there were officers and soldiers in the middle of the front and back, Yu Shu was sandwiched in the middle of the team, and left Chunxiang Building with the flow of people depressed.

As soon as she went outside, she saw another figure. I saw him riding on a red horse, waiting outside the door, and when he saw that everyone was coming out, he drove the horse slowly and led the way to the west of the street.

There were a lot of passers-by gathered in front of Chunxiang Building, all of whom stopped to see the excitement, and when they saw the official errands, they didn't dare to block the road, not far from the side of the road. Finger and point.

Yu Shu turned her head and looked around for Xia Mingming's figure, afraid that she would look for food elsewhere at this time, and let her not be able to say anything.

But she was worried in vain, Xia Mingming entered Chunxiang Building from Yu Shu, and she never left on the side of the road, and when she saw the officers and soldiers breaking in to arrest people, she waited outside in fear. Seeing people come out now, before he saw Yu Shu's figure, he rushed to the front of passers-by in a panic and shouted loudly:

"Ah Shu, Ah Shu!"

Hearing these calls, Xue Rui, who was walking at the forefront, moved his neck, turned his head, and looked for it in the pile of people behind. When he saw Yu Shu's figure, he saw her tiptoe waving to the side of the road, and then a young man stumbled out of the roadside, chasing her at a trot across the official errand. He couldn't help but prick up his ears to listen.

"Ah Shu, what's going on?" Xia Mingming asked in a panic.

Yu Shu didn't have the heart to comfort her at this time, and said as concisely as possible: "The government is strictly investigating the gambling in the south of the city, so they have arrested all of us." ”

Xia Mingming cried with a face: "It's not good to blame me, if it weren't for me, you wouldn't have been arrested, Ah Shu, what should I do, what should I do?" ”

As soon as Yu Shu heard her crying, he was so upset that he just wanted to slap her, but doing so would attract the officers and soldiers in front of him, so he couldn't help but beat her, and admonished:

"Obviously, you listen to me, you go back to Huixing Street first, don't go home, and when you don't see me go back at night, you tell Jingchen and Xiao Xiu, and let them go to the yamen early tomorrow morning to ask about the situation, and see that I am in prison, so they want to go in to see me."

After that, he took out the money bag in his arms, took advantage of the official's inattention, stretched out his hand and stuffed it to her, and as soon as he stretched his hand back, he heard the officers and soldiers in front of him stop and drink, pointing to Yu Shu and another gambler who wanted to slip away:

"What are you doing, you, and you, don't go quickly!"

"Don't follow." Yu Shu scolded Xia Mingming in a low voice, and trotted forward two steps.

Xue Rui turned his head thoughtfully, beckoned the subordinate who was following the horse on foot to step forward, bowed his head and whispered a few words.

***

A group of people who gambled in Chunxianglou were taken to the Chengnan Mansion and were thrown directly into the cell before they passed the court.

Everyone lined up to enter the prison door, because there were many people, the front was locked in one room, and soon the empty cell was half full, and when Yu Shu arrived, the room was still very sufficient, so she was lucky to enter a single room.

Since it was a cell, the environment would not be much better, there was no bed or chair, just a pile of hay spread in the corner, and a small iron cage window opened above the head, and the light was shone in bunches, most of which were still in the dark.

Yu Shu watched the jailer lock the cell door, sighed, walked back and forth twice in a small place, and sat on the pile of hay, listening to the other people in the next room beating their chests and regretting.

Alas, her law of calamity, everything is good, but she can't count herself, although the six masters are accurate, but they must be asked to solve it, where did she think that there would be such a trip to prison.

This is good, I didn't win a cent of money, and I made myself disgraced, which really lost my wife and soldiers.

Yu Shu hugged her knees and buried her face, thinking about it, she thought of the glance that the person surnamed Xue glared at her in Chunxianglou, and couldn't help but ponder the meaning of that look.

The marriage between the Ji family and the Xue family was blown away, and she was kicked out of the Ji family again, so she never thought that she would meet Lu again to see him, and she came to the capital all the way, to be honest, it was not that she couldn't remember him, but she didn't want to remember such a person.

thinks that when he was still Cao Zixin, their relationship was so good that they could be called brothers and sisters, and that kind of affection later became strangers, which made her unhappy when she thought about it.

She still remembers clearly that day in the Xue family annex, he deliberately "bullied" her, and was smashed by one of her cups and broke her head and bled out, which was the last scene they met, and it was also the reason why she couldn't let go of him.

She doesn't like to owe favors, and if she owes, she must pay it back clearly in order to be comfortable, otherwise she will always have such a piece of pressure in her heart, and it is okay if she can't remember it, and she will feel uncomfortable when she remembers.

If you want to say that she came here from five hundred years ago, after these five hundred years, who does she really owe, only Cao Zixin.

When she first came to be poor and white, he was the one who gave her her first job, when she was evicted and homeless, he was the one who picked her up, and when she was in prison to protect herself, he was the one who rescued her.

Not to mention whether she was willing to accept these personal favors, she accepted them after all, and more than once, but she had nothing to repay him, so she had to owe them stubbornly.

There is so much debt in front of her, and now in this situation, she is in prison, she can't figure out the incident in the annex, after so long, will he help her again, but he is afraid that he will help her again, if she wants to accept other favors again, she would rather be put on a few boards, or squat in prison for a few days.

Thinking about it like this, soon it was dark outside, and there was one less meal in the middle, Yu Shu gurgled in her stomach, she sat up from the ground, stretched her numb legs and feet, turned around and looked up at the sky outside the window, and frowned secretly.

I don't know if Lu Daoxia went home or not, whether she did what she said, it didn't matter how many days she slept in the cell, I was afraid that Yu Xiaoxiu would worry about them.

There was a chain behind her, Yu Shu didn't pay attention to it at first, and only turned her head when someone called her.

"Hey, you, come out."

In the corridor outside the cell door stood two jailers, followed by a man, the same officer and soldier leader he had seen during the day.

Yu Shu's eyelids jumped, and instead of moving forward, he took a step back, pretending to be stupid and asked, "What's the matter, do you want to let us go?" ”

"Let you come out, where is so much nonsense," said the jailer who opened the door, impatiently.

The leader of the officers and soldiers patted him on the shoulder and said to Yu Shu: "It's not to let you go, it's an adult to interrogate, you come out." ”

Needless to say, this adult is Xue Rui.

As soon as Yu Shu heard this, she was even more reluctant to go out, if she was really face-to-face with him, how could she be embarrassed, and it was still comfortable in this cell.

Her eyes rolled halfway, and she showed a wry smile, and waved her hands and said: "If you want to ask for trial, then you can find the wrong person, I am the first time to go back to that kind of place, I really don't know what to ask, and if I can't ask, I can't say that I can't be tortured, please do a good job, don't ask me to suffer that crime." ”

The leader of the officers and soldiers was sent by Xue Rui's tribe to raise people, and when he saw that Yu Shu refused to come out, he listened to her, and when she was afraid of being forced to confess, he spoke out to appease, no matter how he thought about it, Yu Shu refused to come out, because Xue Rui had confessed before, and he didn't dare to forcibly pull her away, for fear of hurting people, so he had to ask the jailer to lock the prison door and go back to restore his life.

As soon as the person left, Yu Shu breathed a sigh of relief, retreated to the haystack and sat down, leaning against the wall, hungry but not screaming in the stomach, after a while there was sleepiness, then curled up on the haystack, lying on his side and napping, when he was half asleep, and heard the sound of the chain of the cell door, she opened her eyes tiredly, and her vision was blurred for a short time, and she saw a pair of clean white boots dangling in front of her, a figure squatted down in front of her, looked at her for a moment, brushed her hand over her head, picked off a dead grass, and laughed in a low voice:

"Your shelf is not small, and you want me to come and ask you to come out in person."

Yu Shu came to his senses as soon as he was excited, and on the side of his head, he opened his eyes and looked at the gentle smile on the face of the person on the top, and suddenly, he saw the shopkeeper Cao of Changmen Street again.
