May Fourth prison visit

In Yingtianfu Prison, the oil lamp is like a bean, the cell is silent, and the sounds of crying or crying or making noise or shouting during the day have also disappeared into the night, two jailers are napping, one jailer is holding his chin with his hand, his head is too heavy to lift up, and the other jailer has fallen asleep against the wall, suddenly the door was gently tapped twice, and one jailer was awakened from his sleep, opened his eyes and shouted: "Who? ”

A low voice came from outside the door: "In Xia Chen, I said that I saw it a few days ago, and if I have something to worry about, please make it easier." ”

While speaking, the two jailers had woken up, the two heard what was said outside, looked at each other, glanced through the door, and opened the door, under the dim light, Chen Shiyan walked in with Ding Si and Xiong Tianlei, Ding Si looked at it, but it was also a coincidence, the two jailers knew each other, the older one was Hu Chao, and the younger one was called Fang Wen.

Chen Shiyan said to the two jailers: "Two brothers, thank you for taking care of you these days. ”

Hu Chao hurriedly said: "Uncle Chen is polite, Feng Shaoqing of Dali Temple has already instructed, if there is something to do, just open your mouth, and besides, Ding Zhutou and we are all acquaintances, these things should be done." ”

Liu Wen continued: "Fortunately, Feng Shaoqing greeted him in advance, otherwise Ding Zhutou would have been sent to Dongchang Prison." ”

Ding Si flashed out from behind Chen Shiyan and saluted Hu Chao and Fang Wen, Hu Chao and Fang Wen couldn't help but be taken aback when they saw that it was Ding Si, Hu Chao said straight to Ding Si: "Why haven't you shown up for so many days, Ding Zhutou is still in the cell and has been worrying about you, and asked us to inquire about you this morning." ”

Ding Si rushed? Another wave: "Thank you Brother Hu, the younger brother has not been at home these days, and he has just learned the news of his father." ”

Hu Ba and Liu Wen knew that Ding Si was going to visit his father in the cell, so they took the key before he could open his mouth, opened the cell door, and let Ding Si go in alone. In the dim light, Ding Si finally found the cell where his father was held, and shouted through the window, "Dad." ”

He didn't shout twice, Ding Qianzhong's voice sounded inside: "Ding Si? ”

Ding Si hurriedly responded, and heard the sound of Xi Suo Suo inside, and it didn't take long for Ding Duanzhong to walk to the window, Ding Si saw that his father's face was much thinner than the previous two days, and he couldn't help but choke a little in his throat: "Dad......"

Ding Qianzhong let out a sigh of relief and asked, "Ding Si, where have you been these days?" ”

Ding Si didn't care about concealing it at this time, so he told the story before and after, and Ding Quanzhong was shocked when he heard it, and Ding Si didn't speak for a long time after speaking.

Ding Si saw that his father was silent, thinking that his father was annoyed with him, so he hurriedly said: "Dad, I didn't think things through, but I caused you to suffer." ”

Ding Qianzhong let out a long sigh: "Little Si, your mother and I are only one of your sons, do you know why we named you Ding Si?" ”

Ding Si's heart skipped a beat, and he replied: "I also heard my mother mention it for nothing, originally I had three older brothers above me, but none of them were raised and died early." ”

Ding Qianzhong's deep voice looked a little old in the cell: "Do you know why your mother is devout to the Buddha and wears three incense sticks a day?" ”

Ding Si didn't know why his father mentioned this, so he couldn't help but be stunned, and said, "I don't know." ”

Ding Qianzhong wanted to speak, but suddenly coughed, and finally stopped, and said in a hoarse voice: "Your mother once made a wish in front of the Bodhisattva, as long as you are safe and sound in this life, she is willing to be a vegetarian for the rest of her life." Fortunately, you have no illness and no disaster, and you have grown so big in peace. ”

Ding Si's tears swirled in his eyes, and he held on to prevent the tears from flowing.

Ding Qianzhong said again: "I originally wanted you to do a quick catch, and I could take care of it under my nose, but I didn't expect your temperament to let you get into danger repeatedly, and I should have stopped you in time after I knew it last time, and I didn't let you check it again, it was my carelessness." After Ding Qianzhong finished speaking, he coughed again, and then said after the cough was finished: "I also wondered, how could I be in prison for so long, I first thought about whether I had inadvertently offended someone, but after thinking about it, I didn't have any impression, and then I heard the jailer say that Dongchang wanted to take me to go, and I still wondered why Dongchang found me in trouble." ”

Ding Si choked up again and said, "Dad, it's me who is not filial, and I have caused you to suffer." ”

Ding Qianzhong waved his hand to Ding Si and said, "I didn't suffer much, several jailers knew each other, and they still took care of it." Then he said slowly: "In this way, the case of the Xiong family is really a bit strange, but how did it have anything to do with the East Factory, although now the Shengshang has built the West Factory, and has shared some of the limelight of the East Factory, the East Factory is not as good as before, but Yu Wei is still there, and it is still not easy to provoke." Ding Qianzhong's heart was already clear at this time, the reason why he was arrested and put in prison was that Dongchang found out the relationship between Ding Si and himself, thinking that he had instructed Ding Si to secretly investigate the matter, so he simply set up a crime for himself in order to prevent himself from investigating. He thought it clear in his heart, and couldn't help but let out a long breath, secretly saying that it was fortunate that Dongchang misunderstood him, otherwise if he dealt with Ding Si specifically, Ding Si would be planted in his life. Ding Qianzhong thought for a while, in this way, Fu Yin still gave himself some face, if he was taken away by Dongchang, he didn't know if he would be able to come out alive.

Thinking of this, Ding Qianzhong said again: "With the current attitude of Fu Yin towards this matter, Dongchang should not directly intervene in this matter, otherwise, I would have been taken away a long time ago." However, with Fu Yin as a person, it is difficult for him, I didn't expect to have a little backbone this time. ”

Hearing Ding Qianzhong say this, Ding Si hesitated, but still said: "It was Mr. Chen Shiyan who had an old relationship with Feng Degao, Shaoqing of Dali Temple, so he interceded with him, and Feng Shaoqing specially confessed." ”

Ding Qianzhong said strangely: "Who is Chen Shiyan?" ”

Ding Si remembered that he hadn't mentioned Chen Shiyan's name to his father, so he hurriedly told his father about Chen Shiyan and Zheng Qiaoniang. After speaking, he looked at Ding Si and said: "Chen Shiyan was also a leader in catching fast back then, this person has superb martial arts, is witty and decisive, and should be quite dependent on the Yin of Tianfu Mansion, and even the current emperor has been rewarded, because he offended Dongchang, he was forced to withdraw from the yamen, and has disappeared since then." The victory of Dongchang's arrogance can be seen from this. Feng Shaoqing once served in Ying Tianfu, and he must have known him at that time. Speaking of this, Ding Qianzhong's tone suddenly changed, and he said sharply: "Ding Si, from now on, you will leave the Xiong family away, don't care about right and wrong." Whether my life is life or death, you must be safe. ”

When Ding Si heard his father say this, he didn't know how to answer, he just muttered.

Seeing Ding Si's attitude, Ding Qianzhong said bitterly: "Little Si, do you still want to be obsessed and take care of this matter?" You're just a little catcher, can you still think of yourself as some kind of hero? ”

Ding Si saw that his father was in a hurry, and he didn't know what to say in a hurry, and when he saw his father coughing, he hurriedly comforted him.

Ding Qianzhong saw that Ding Si did not agree, so he sank his face and said: "If you want to be obsessed and nosy again, you will not see me again." After finishing speaking, he ignored Ding Si and walked straight to the bed and sat down.

Ding Si saw that the cell was cramped, and his father was sitting there with his body slumped, and he felt uncomfortable for a while, and screamed a few times in a low voice outside, only to see Ding Quanzhong's face buried in the dark, and he couldn't see the expression on his face, so he had to say, "Dad, I will definitely find a way to save you out." After waiting for a while, but never hearing his father's response, Ding Si had no choice but to say goodbye to his father in tears and leave the cell.
