"Brother Xing." The night was deep, and in the prison, Xing Su looked at the bright moon outside the high window without saying a word, thinking of the events of the day, he vaguely felt that it was right in front of him, and the pool of blood outside the cell behind him had dried up, but Xing Su didn't dare to look back, as if as long as he turned his head, he would see Bu Zhiming's flesh and blood blurred corpse. He leaned against the wall and was distracted, and the jailer outside the prison saw it in his eyes and knew that he was sad in his heart, so he comforted: "Don't think about it anymore, His Royal Highness King Qin has already said that he will thoroughly investigate this matter, and when the time comes, he will definitely return your innocence to your eldest brother." ”

"Probably." Xing Su tilted his head and glanced over here, and said with a wry smile: "But what can it be?" Little Bit is dead. Even if they find out that I'm not guilty, can they bring me back to life? ”

The jailer was speechless, frowned, looked at the bloodstains on the ground, and said, "It's a pity that this child is too young." ”

"Where's his wife?" Xing Su suddenly remembered something and asked, "Do you know about this?" ”

"Nope." The jailer shook his head. "None of the brothers dared to tell her, at such an age, I was afraid that she would not be able to accept it for a while."

"Hmm" Xing Su sighed and said, "Let's hide it first, let the brothers accompany the old man for more than these two days." ”

"It's already been said." The jailer nodded, "These days, I have taken turns to go to the old man's house to help do something." ”

"Thank you." Xing Su knew that things had been arranged, so he continued to turn his head and look at the bright moon.

"They are all their own brothers, why bother to say these nonsense." Seeing that Xing Su no longer spoke, the jailer didn't want to disturb anymore, so he got up and took some firewood and grass to cover up the bloodstains and said, "Big brother, I have to go outside to inspect, if you need anything, just call me through the wall." ”

"Hmm." Xing Su didn't look back, and replied lightly.

"I don't know what's going on at home." Xing Su looked at the bright moon outside the window and muttered to himself.

Early the next morning.

Pei Fu.

"It's done!" Shi Jingzhong was dressing in the side room at this time, and suddenly saw Pei Juqi break into the door with an excited face, and hurriedly asked what happened.

"The gates are already arranged." Pei Juqi said excitedly: "It cost me a lot of silver." By this afternoon, I'll be able to send Mr. and Miss Snow out of town. ”

"Is that true?" Hearing Pei Juqi say this, Shi Jingzhong couldn't help but be overjoyed, and hurriedly asked, "How to arrange the dredging?" ”

"My distant cousin is on an errand in that guard." Pei Juqi said: "Although I am not very close, but after all, money can pass through the gods, I have already stuffed enough silver, and when the time comes, I only need to pretend to go out of the city to purchase goods, hide the two gentlemen under the carriage, and then I can secretly Chen Cang, and send the two gentlemen out of the city unconsciously." ”

"That's very good." Shi Jingzhong was overjoyed after hearing this, and he didn't have time to tidy up his clothes, so he opened the door to find Zhou Xueke. Seeing that Xue Ke was fighting with Pei Guangyi in that courtyard, he ran over excitedly and picked up Xue Ke and said, "Xiao Ke'er, go and pack your things, we can go out of the city today." ”

"Huh? Out of town? Zhou Xue was having fun, and when she heard Shi Jingzhong say this, she couldn't help frowning suddenly, showing an unhappy expression, and said pleadingly: "But Xue doesn't want to leave here." As soon as you leave here, you can't play with Brother Pei. ”

"Uncle, you're leaving?" Pei Guangyi heard their conversation on the side, and couldn't help but be stunned, and then became sad: "I forgot, Xue Ke is about to leave Chang'an." ”

"Don't be sad," Shi Jingzhong couldn't help but feel a little unbearable when he saw Zhou Xueke like this. "If you miss him, let's come back later, okay?" Although it was so comforting, Shi Jingzhong knew in his heart that if he said goodbye to this trip, he was afraid that he could only die in this life, wander all over the world, and never return to Chang'an.

"Don't cry, little one." Pei Guangyi saw tears rolling in Zhou Xueke's eyes, so he patted his chest and said, "I will definitely go to you in the future, and I will take you to catch Maji Bird to play when the time comes." Saying this, he couldn't help but reddened his eyes. It's just that little Coco must not forget me, even if I accompany you to read "Perch" and "Stone Scripture" when the time comes. ”

"It's the Analects and the Book of Songs." Zhou Xue heard Pei Guangyi say this, and couldn't help but want to correct it, so she smiled bitterly: "Don't want it, let you study with me, you will definitely not be able to read." Take me to catch the Maggie. ”

The four of them were talking like this, when they suddenly saw a subordinate running in in a hurry and said, "Master, what you asked me to check has been found." ”

"How?" Pei Juqi heard the scary words and asked hurriedly.

"It's a lieutenant general named Xing Su." "It is said that because of the collusion with the prince to rebel and openly resist arrest, he is now being held in prison, as for how to deal with it, there is no specific statement." It's just that because the prince is involved, I'm afraid that the silver taels given are not enough. I've already told them to spend more. ”

"Nope." Pei Juqi shook his head and said: "We can't manage this kind of big man like the prince, you go back and send the silver back intact, just say we can't do it." ”

When the next person went, Pei Juqi saw Shi Jingzhong's suspicious face, so he couldn't help but explain: "Brother Shi smiled. The brothers' family business is quite large, and the expenses on weekdays are not small, so they have to do some mundane things to earn some silver taels. I also hope that Brother Shi will forgive me. ”

"Brother Pei is too worried." When Shi Jingzhong heard Pei Juqi's tone, he knew that he was in the capital and took advantage of his position to do things like accepting money to help people settle things. Although he is high-spirited, he is not disgusted with other people's behavior, you must know that the world is different, people have different aspirations, different ways of living, and no one has to look down on anyone. Therefore, although I don't like it, I don't hate it, I just feel that this person's name is a little familiar, because he said: "Xing Su Xing Su's name is very familiar, but I can't remember who it is for a while." ”

"Ah, I know." Xue Ke was held by Shi Jingzhong, and when he heard this name, he couldn't help but say: "I was slapped by that bad guy that day, and it was this Brother Xing who coaxed me." ”

"It's him!?" Shi Jingzhong then remembered that it was Xing Su who had been fighting with him for a long time that night, but he was puzzled when he thought about it: "Why did he go to prison?" Or is it because of the Prince? ”

"I heard that two secret letters with the prince were found at home, and I don't know if it was true or false. It's pitiful. Hearing that the officers and soldiers said that they were going to be sentenced to death when they found out the secret letter, the old lady was too old to be stimulated, and she was scared to death all of a sudden, and her wife saw the old lady like this, so she wanted to pounce on the officers and soldiers to fight hard, but was hacked to death by the officer, leaving a few years old girl, and I don't know where she is now. Pei Juqi shook his head and said, "It's really miserable." ”

"That Xing Su, where is he locked up now?" Shi Jingzhong listened to Pei Juqi's words, and was silent for a long time before asking.

"It's in a nearby prison." Pei Ju chess. "What is this for?"

"Brother Pei." Shi Jingzhong said.

"Looks like I won't be able to leave for a while."
