Chapter 583: At Stake
In the evening, an inn in the city of Hangzhou.
"Sir, Sakurako is fine, she is much better after bathing and changing."
After returning from the government prison, Youlan smiled and said to Li Hongyu, who was waiting for news, "Lord Xue arranged for Sakura to be in a clean cell, if it wasn't for your explanation, he would have put Sakura back directly." ”
"Sakura was arrested and put in prison by the people of the Yamen, so naturally the people of the Yamen will release her in a dignified manner."
Li Hongyu secretly breathed a sigh of relief when he heard this, then groaned for a while, looked at Youlan with emotion and said:
"When Wanli Ye sent troops to Korea to fight with the invading Japanese people, the Japanese army had already begun to learn from Westerners to equip firearms, and now twenty or thirty years have passed, their firearms are better, and our Ming Dynasty has stagnated, which is really worrying."
"What Mr. said is very true, if Sakurako hadn't had a firearm to defend herself this time, I'm afraid she would have died a long time ago." When Youlan heard this, she nodded with deep feelings.
At this moment, Li Hongyu and Youlan have already understood the story of Yamashita Sakurako's case, Yamashita Sakurako was taken by a local gentry when she was playing in Qiantang County, so the gentry asked his subordinates to create a trivial incident to attract the attention of Yamashita Sakurako's entourage, and took the opportunity to let two patters take Yamashita Sakurako away from her stun.
Due to Yamashita Sakurako's young age, the gentry's subordinates did not search Yamashita Sakurako's body, which gave Yamashita Sakurako a chance to escape, and no one would have thought that Yamashita Sakurako was carrying a short knife and a flint pistol.
Yamashita Sakurako's flint pistol is even smaller and more delicate than Li Hongyu's, and it is the latest product on the Western market, and it has become Yamashita Sakurako's favorite self-defense weapon.
It turned out that the gentry liked the young man, the young in the ancient upper class society was all the rage, considered a kind of fashion in the upper class, those rich and powerful people especially like to find some girls to come****** the gentry has never seen Yamashita Sakurako, such a peugeot little girl, suddenly itching, feeling that Yamashita Sakurako is a foreigner in Hangzhou Mansion can not make any big waves, so let people take her captive, ready to enjoy Fangze.
When she realized that the gentry would not let her go, she pulled out her short knife and stabbed him in the heart when the gentry pressed her down on the bed and wanted to do wrong.
This caused the gentry to die on the spot, his eyes wide open, and he never imagined that he would die at the hands of a little girl.
One of the sons of the gentry was furious when he saw that the gentry was killed, and took a knife from the hand of a family member and ran towards Sakurako Yamashita violently, wanting to kill Sakurako Yamashita to avenge the gentry.
Faced with such a critical situation, Yamashita Sakurako took out the flint pistol from her body, pulled the trigger and fired a projectile, which was too close to the gentry's son in the forehead, causing him to scream and fall to the ground and convulse before he stopped moving.
The people around were frightened by the flint pistol in the hand of Yamashita Sakurako, and they didn't dare to act rashly, and it happened that the errand patrol of Qiantang County passed in front of the house, and the current house was chaotic, so they went in to check and arrested Yamashita Sakurako in prison.
It was only at this time that Yamashita Sakurako's entourage knew that something had happened to Yamashita Sakurako, so they sent someone to hurry up to Li Hongyu for help, although they could dominate the sea at sea, but there was nothing they could do on the 6 grounds, so they could only pin their hopes on Li Hongyu's body.
Through Yamashita Sakurako's incident this time, Li Hongyu not only realized that Yamashita Sakurako must have experienced unimaginable tribulations before, so that she could kill people so calmly, but also felt helpless and saddened by the backwardness of Daming Firearms.
I think that when the Yongle Emperor was the Shenji Battalion, the Northern Yuan Dynasty lost his armor and was famous all over the world, but now he was driven away by the Red Maoyi of the West, it is really a thing or a person, if the Yongle Emperor knew it, he would definitely jump out of the mausoleum to teach future generations those unscrupulous descendants.
"I'd better go see her!"
Although Yamashita Sakurako was fine, Li Hongyu decided to visit after pacing back and forth in the room a few times, and said to Youlan in a deep voice, after all, Yamashita Sakurako was his fiancée, so he should go to it with reason.
"Lord Xue has already arranged it." Youlan smiled slightly when she heard this, she had long known that Li Hongyu was not at ease not to go down the mountain Sakurako, no matter how Sakurako said it, she was still a teenage girl, and Xue Liang had thought it through and had already taken care of everything.
Li Hongyu nodded, and led Youlan to the Hangzhou Mansion prison, and the doorman guarding the door of the prison had already been explained in advance, and nodded and welcomed the person in.
"This son, please here, the magistrate has already instructed the young lady, and the little ones will definitely not let the young lady be wronged."
When the cell boss heard the news, he immediately rushed over, led Li Hongyi and Youlan into the prison with a smile on his face, bowed down and said as he walked, "You slow down, the lights in the prison are dim, you are careful of your step." ”
Xue Liang is the top boss of those people in the prison, so the cell boss naturally doesn't dare to slack off, otherwise Xue Liang will lose his official son if he says a word.
The prison was dark and damp, and there was a foul smell, which made Li Hongyu's brows furrow slightly, not that he couldn't stand this pungent smell, but that he was worried that Sakurako Yamashita would be difficult to adapt to this harsh environment.
"Salary, the magistrate specially explained, saying that Miss doesn't like to be disturbed, so the small one sent someone to guard the door of the young lady's cell, and no one can enter without the small one."
The cell boss thinks that Li Hongyu is a powerful child, which not only makes Xue Liang attach great importance to him, but also has a female companion like Youlan with a stunning face, so he flatteringly invites Gong while walking, as long as Li Hongyu is happy, the silver he will reward him with is enough for him to eat and drink for a while.
"Brothers have worked hard, please have a few glasses of wine!" Li Hongyu naturally understood what the cell boss meant, so he nodded to an entourage following behind him, and the entourage took out a gold ingot and threw it at the cell boss.
"Gongzi Xie, Gongzi Xie." The cell head stretched out his hand and weighed the appearance of five or six taels, and then bowed to Li Hongyu with a smile and said, this kind of person who is a gold ingot as soon as he makes a move is definitely a rich and noble person.
If the cell boss knew that the young and elegant young man in front of him was the auxiliary minister of the Ming Dynasty, he would definitely be so shocked that his jaw dropped, and he actually accepted the black money of the auxiliary minister of the Ming Dynasty.
Li Hongyu is not the kind of person who does not understand the world, he naturally knows that those errand servants in the prison belong to the "servants" recruited by the yamen, and there is no salary to receive on weekdays, so he specially fishes oil and water from the prisoners in the prison.
Since Yamashita Sakurako's case will take a few days to be concluded, Li Hongyu naturally hopes that the cell boss can take good care of her, after all, the county official is not as good as the current management, and the cell boss must not be offended in a place like the prison.
While walking, turning a corner, Li Hongyu noticed that there was a tall and thin jailer not far in front of him, who was leaning on the wooden fence of the prison and talking and laughing with a prisoner in the cell.
"Stop!" Li Hongyu frowned when he saw this, and shouted at him in a deep voice, the performance of this thin and tall jailer is really too abnormal, it stands to reason that the cell head is behind him, so the thin and tall jailer should not run away, and his face has changed.
The tall and thin jailer did not stop, but ran faster when he heard the words, Li Hongyu suddenly had an ominous premonition in his heart, so he took the gold ingot from the hand of the cell leader, and threw it at the tall and thin jailer who was rushing forward.
With a thud, the gold ingot drew a low parabola in the air and smashed impartially on the head of the tall and thin jailer.
The tall and thin jailer snorted, stumbled under his feet, and fell with a plop to a dog to nibble on, and could not get up for a long time.
The two attendants behind Li Hongyu immediately stepped forward and brought the tall and thin jailer over, his face was covered with blood, and his mouth kept moaning, and it seemed that he had fallen a lot just now.
"What are you running, swindling corpses!"
The cell boss also felt that the thin and tall jailer's performance was too abnormal, and thought that the thin and tall man thought that his boss was coming to inspect after seeing Li Hongyu and his party, so he panicked, so his face sank and he stepped forward and scolded.
"Say, why did you see us running away?" Li Hongyu stared at the thin and tall jailer and asked coldly, he felt that this matter was not simple.
"Rao...... Spare your life, little ...... The small ones are just looking at the wind, and the small ones have nothing to ...... Independent! The tall and thin jailer glanced at Youlan standing beside Li Hongyu in horror, and begged Li Hongyu for mercy in a loud voice.
"Oops!"
Li Hongyu's heart suddenly sank when he heard this, he realized from the action of the thin and tall jailer that the situation of Sakurako Yamashita was not good, so he didn't think much about it, he ran forward, if he remembered correctly, Sakurako's cell under Yamashita was in the innermost, and the environment was the most quiet.
Youlan also saw that the situation was not good, and hurriedly followed behind Li Hongyu, with an anxious look in her eyes.
"You...... You guys...... You are so bold that you dare to take this kind of money! ”
The head of the cell was already bloodless at this time, how could he not know the doors and doors in the prison after so many years of crawling and rolling in the prison? So he pointed his finger at the tall and thin jailer and scolded in annoyance, "You just wait to lose your head!" ”
"Boss, help me, help me!" The tall and thin jailer was so frightened that his crotch peed out of his crotch, and he pleaded with the cell boss repeatedly.
"Hmph, did you ever think of Lao Tzu when you did this kind of thing?"
The cell boss suddenly sneered, and then hurriedly chased after Li Hongyu, the thin and tall jailer and the others didn't take him as a cell boss at all when they hid him from eating such a big single food, which broke the rules of the prison, so how could he speak for them.
Besides, the cell boss is now unable to protect himself, how can he help the thin and tall jailer and others speak, in the eyes of the cell boss, they are simply looking for death, don't you see that Yamashita Sakurako's life experience is not simple? Even Xue Liang personally went out and dared to collect black money!
