"I'll go with you, but there is one condition, you must not be embarrassed by the people in this warehouse!"

Liu Tong walked to the middle of the courtyard and said coldly at Xu Zhen at the entrance of the fence.

Seeing a few people out of the house glaring at him, Dong Sanlin still felt that he was a little closer to them, so he retreated to the entrance.

"We are the government, your request can be considered." Xu Zhen waved his hand, and the soldiers trotted for a while, like two trickling streams, starting to fork from Dong Sanlin, and surrounded them in an arc, surrounding Liu Tong, Wu Ji and others, aiming at their bows and crossbows, and adding knives and guns.

After a while, the officials behind took the iron chains and immediately locked Liu Tong, Wu Ji, Liu Si, and Luo Tie, and the weapons were also confiscated. Xu Shuo and Xu Dali at the door were also locked up with spears. The red carp and Dong Xiaonan inside helped the injured Xu Lian to be pushed out by several soldiers and converged.

The officials stepped forward with iron chains to tie them up, and the red carp consciously stretched out their hands, and Dong Xiaonan's face was pale.

"What does it have to do with women!" Wu Ji kicked down the official who was about to lock Dong Xiaonan, Dong Xiaonan panicked, grabbed Wu Ji's arm, and hid behind him.

The soldier next to him was about to make a move on Wu Ji with his weapon, and Liu Tong shouted: "How can you not believe what you say? ”

Xu Zhen saw Liu Tong glaring at him angrily, lightly, and waved his hand, and the soldiers no longer came up to beat Wu Ji.

Liu Tong saw that although the people in the warehouse were locked, the other party did not plan to burn the house, so he stopped talking. As long as you keep your home, let's talk about other things.

"My lord, there is no one else!" A group of soldiers came out of it, and the leader reported to Xu Zhen.

"Go back to the house!" Xu Zhen nodded and said.

"Wait!" Liu Tong shouted.

"What the are you going to do?" Dong Sanlin came up to push Liu Tong, but found that Wu Ji, Liu Si, and Luo Tie had fire in their eyes, as if they were going to burn themselves to ashes, and they felt a chill in their hearts and stopped it vividly.

"Huh?" Xu Zhen's eyes signaled that Liu Tong would say something if he had something to say.

"This is just a cook in the warehouse, and now that she has a thigh injury, it makes no sense for you to take her away, it will only make her injury worse."

Xu Zhen looked at Xu Lian, saw Xu Shuo and Xu Dali nodding constantly, threw a pleading look at him, nodded, and turned the horse's head and left without saying a word.

The soldiers and officials suddenly changed from the back team to the front team and walked out. Liu Tong and the others were also pushed, and the two walked out in a row. In the distance, many people watched, whispering, and pointing.

The red carp was originally supporting Xu Lian, but now that Xu Lian stayed, he was about to help Dong Xiaonan, and found that Dong Xiaonan was holding Wu Ji's arm, so he came to Liu Tong's side.

"Red carp, you go, no one can stop you." Liu Tong said in a low voice.

"I won't part with you!"

"Go find someone!"

"I won't part with you!"

Seeing the two talking, the soldier pushed Liu Tong's shoulder. Liu informed that the red carp is a character, it is useless to say anything to him, she is in a dangerous situation, she will not leave herself, so she gave up the idea of persuading her to move the rescuers, and this way, Liu Tong hehe, a little self-deprecation, a little bad taste, and even a little expectation.

This is really a strange state of mind, perhaps only Liu Tong himself can explain it.

"Xiao Nan, why are you so confused, walking with this gang of robbers!"

"They're good people!"

"Would you rather go to the Qinglou than marry me?"

"If you force me, I'll die......"

"Get out of the way!"

Liu Tongzheng was talking to the red carp, and he could also hear Dong Sanlin talking to Dong Xiaonan with a salivating face, while Wu Ji scolded Dong Sanlin impatiently.

Dong Sanlin was furious and was about to punch Wu Ji's head, but he saw Dong Xiaonan holding Wu Ji's head with his hand and facing Dong Sanlin with his back, as if he wanted to block his fist for him.

"Wait, I'll clean you up in a moment!" Dong Sanlin angrily beat his horse and went forward.

Liu Tong looked at this scene and laughed in his heart, it was rumored that this Dong Sanye should be a bold and reckless person, and he never thought that there was nothing he could do about this Dong Xiaonan.

It seems that he has moved his true feelings. On the one hand, he thought of a way to force her to marry herself, and even sent her to the Qinglou, and on the other hand, she was protected by people and did not let her pick up guests, just playing the pipa. This wonderful love is really confusing and lost.

Although Liu Tong felt that Dong Sanlin, a scoundrel, did not need to be strong in front of Dong Xiaonan, and had his desirable side, in order to force Dong Yu to marry his daughter, he actually adopted such a false accusation and framing method, causing people to die, which is indeed too vicious!

Seeing his appearance, especially his abrupt eyes, I felt quite unhappy.

It doesn't matter if you don't look at the uncomfortable things, the soldiers in front of you are marching, but they are also neat and orderly, although they are well-equipped, after all, they are county guards, and they still lack the momentum of the army on the right track, Liu Tong is a little disappointed.

The street had turned into a stone street, and there were very few people on the street except for the crowd of onlookers in the warehouse just now, and even if there were people, they only paused for a moment and then hurried away. In the night, when encountering a sergeant with an open flame, the people are often afraid to avoid it.

The mansion is tall, the front of the door is wide, in the firelight, you can see a rough outline, there seem to be two lions on the stone platform in front of the door, the details are not clear, but quite tall. And the four pillars and three gates, the main gate and the instrument gate are separated, which is also majestic.

Xu Zhen dismounted, and just up the steps to the one-meter-high pedestal, the gate creaked open.

"Young nephew, the master called you over!"

Xu Zhen sent the big knife, and the entourage took it in time, "Sanlin, come over together." The old man who rushed to open the door nodded and went in.

"Put them in jail! A retrial will be held later. Dong Sanlin shouted at the crowd and followed.

Liu Tong and the others did not expect that these people would directly send themselves to prison without questioning or anything, which was a little unexpected and a little worried. Is it too dangerous, it's a big deal to show your identity, on Liu Kuan's ground, Liu Tong's identity should be able to settle all officials.

Now that you are in prison without asking, it is difficult to say what the danger is.

In the midst of pushing and shoving, everyone was taken into the cell. One gate entered, another iron door, the aisle was long, dark and damp, and a foul smell filled the entire space. There were not many prison cells, but rows of stone walls divided the rooms into rooms, and the aisle was made of wooden pillars, and the doors were also made of wooden posts, wrapped around with iron chains, and locked. The cells were simple and not numerous, but Liu Tong also saw that both sides were almost full of people.

When they came to the door of the cell on the east side of the innermost, the jailer had already opened the door, and the servants pushed them in, and it seemed that they had no intention of separating them, or at least the men and women.

Everyone was also satisfied with this arrangement, of course the others wanted to protect Liu Tong, and Liu Tong didn't want to be separated from the red carp. And Wu Ji had to protect Liu Tong on the one hand, but he was worried about what Dong Xiaonan would do if he separated? As soon as I entered the door, although I knew that this room was empty, I was very satisfied with their arrangement, even if there was a rancid smell coming from the corner.

After Liu Kuan came to power, the new law implemented light punishment, replacing detention and corporal punishment with exile, flogging, and fines, and rarely the death penalty. There are very few prison settings in various places, almost all of them are free, and the crowded cells in Xihe County are rare now.

The inner hall of the government.

"Are these people really asking about the ancestral temple? Or is it just to inquire about Dong Yu's family? ”

"Brother-in-law, I chased the officials all the way and asked all the way, they were indeed inquiring about the ancestral temple!"

"Uncle, judging from the accents of this group of people, they are very messy, they have accents from all over the world, and judging from their clothes, they don't look like ordinary vendors!"

A lean man in his forties, with upturned eyebrows, a big nose, round eyes and a thin mouth, and three strands of beard hanging from the base of his ears along his jaw, sat in the main seat, which was Xu You.

"Sanlin, does the Dong Yu family have prominent clansmen in other places?"

"No, brother-in-law."

In this way, it is really possible that they are people from Luoyang, but judging from their age, there are women and teenagers, and they don't look like people from Manboning. Could it be a child of a family passing by? ”

"Uncle, that Man Boning is in charge of the heavens and the earth, and can he still manage my Xihe filial piety to the prime minister?"

"Zhen'er, don't despise this guy who is full of favors, the prime minister is lenient, this guy is in charge of the criminal department, but he questioned and tortured the officials, how many people were exiled by him to Sanhan! Sanlin, you go to interrogate Dong Lei, let him make meritorious service for his crimes, and find out the identity of this group of people, if he can find out, he will be spared for the crime of leaking secrets to the Dong family. ”

said that Dong Lei was Dong Yu's distant nephew and a Xihe servant, and he was sent to a prison cell because he leaked secrets to Mrs. Dong in Dong Yu's case.

"Brother-in-law, if it's not from the court, how should you deal with it?" Dong Sanlin asked.

"You must also abide by the law in the future, and if you lose your identity as a prestige, what good will it do to your family? If you continue like this, I will not protect you anymore. These people are obviously not ordinary people, if they are not the people of Manning, warn them, let them go, and don't make any extraneous branches. ”

"Uncle, what if it's someone from the court?"

"If it's ......" Xu You squinted his eyes and groaned, his face showing murderous intent-

"Look and talk."
