Chapter 32: Boy's Tears

Zhou Jin comforted: "If you don't believe in people's senses and ethereal things, don't add trouble to yourself." ”

Qingyu shook his head sadly and said, "You don't understand, if you just feel something, you won't be so anxious, but the string of keys will kill you." ”

Zhou Jin was very puzzled: "What's the fuss about a string of keys, most of the cells in my house are used for these." ”

Qingyu said uncomfortably: "The significance of this key is extraordinary, and it is of great significance to our family. Zhou Jin was even more incomprehensible and said: "The significance is still in the hands of the guys? ”

Qingyu said in a low voice: "This is the key of my family's ancestral house, and now that I am a warehouse, it is normal for Shopkeeper Liu to go there often." Okay, let's not talk about hurrying away. The two of them rode their horses and galloped away.

Songlin County Yada Prison, "You can't recruit it." Jin Yiwei asked Li Wendong, who was tied to the torture rack, Li Wendong had been tortured all over his body at this time, spit blood out of his mouth from time to time, and said with all his strength: "I'll recruit, don't fight." When he was first arrested and put in the county office, Li Wendong explained in every possible way, saying that those books were bought and put in the house, and he didn't have time to read them, and he didn't know that they were anti-books.

Until he was used for a big punishment, he gritted his teeth and did not admit his guilt, Jin Yiwei's methods were famous, and the man who let him be iron-clad also bowed his head in front of him, and now he confessed that he wanted to take a breath to see his son for the last time, his radiant face on weekdays was dead like dust, without a little flesh color, with a long beard covered with blood, and his hair was scattered on his shoulders, and there was no past scenery at all.

"My lord, the prisoner has confessed." Ma Shun said to Xiao Qianjun, "Well, if you recruit it, you won't suffer some flesh and skin." Xiao Qianjun nodded, and then said to Ma Shun: "You go and release the other subordinates of the Li Mansion in the prison." Only Li Wendong and his wife can be left. ”

Ma Shun asked softly: "My lord, Li Wendong still has a son who has not been brought to justice, is it a fish that has slipped through the net, is it to be arrested?" Without waiting for Xiao Qianjun to speak, Zhou Xianling hurriedly said: "My lord, since the Li couple has confessed that it has nothing to do with others, then their son should also be innocent. ”

"Well, that's exactly what I thought. Ma Shun, you can do what I just meant. Xiao Qianjun said to Ma Shun, and Ma Shun rushed to the county jail after receiving the order.

"Master Ma, why did you come to this prison, you are unlucky to regret it, you have something to call someone to come and inform you, just say no." The brocade guard on the side patted the horses' ass, and Ma Shunpi said with a smile: "The official is crushing people to death, and I am not a soothing envoy to help people run errands." ”

The Jinyi guard next to him nodded and said: "Ouch, my lord, you must not surrender your identity, if you are like this, let me wait and die of embarrassment, besides, your relationship with the prince has always been very good, and the position of the commander of the Jinyi guard will not be yours at that time." Speaking of the back, the man whispered in Ma Shun's ear.

The feeling of being slapped on the back is very pleasant, Ma Shunle laughed loudly and intertwined with the wailing in the prison, which sounded extremely chilling, Ma Shun said: "Borrow your auspicious words, if there is one day, you will be indispensable." The brocade guard who patted the sycophants hurriedly knelt on the ground and knelt down to thank him, and said from time to time: "Thank you, Lord Ma, Wei Qun will only be the first to look forward to the future." ”

Ma Shun helped up the Jinyi guard who was kneeling on the ground and said, "Okay, my brother doesn't have to be so polite. Alright, let's get down to business. Ma Shun found a stool in the prison, Wei Qun quickly picked up the kettle and poured a glass of water, and carefully sent it to Ma Shun in his hand, Ma Shun took the water and drank it, put down the bowl and said: "The commander has ordered all the rest of the people except Li Wendong and his wife to be returned home." ”

Wei Qun said with surprise on his face: "My lord, these people haven't been interrogated yet, so how can they explain to the above?" What should we do if there is a fish that slips through the net, even if we release the people, according to the old practice, we should have notified the family to come and pay the silver taels to receive the people, otherwise we will not be busy in vain these days. Ma Shun saw that Wei Qun said a lot as if he was teaching him a lesson, and said angrily: "Do I still need you to teach him how to do things?" Wei Qun hurriedly begged for mercy and said: "The villain doesn't dare, the villain is anxious and angers the adult, and he hopes that the adult will not care about the villain." ”

Seeing that Wei Qun was so deferential, Ma Shun's anger gradually subsided: "Okay, you don't have to worry too much about this matter, and follow what the commander said, that is, when the sky falls, there is still a tall one, and it will not be the turn of the two of us." Ma Shun said that this was on the way, and Wei Qun had to take the order to do things.

"Your Excellency, you've been standing here for a while." Xiao Qianjun to the "Yuan Ji" ** case is getting more and more powerless, maybe because he is old and his energy is not as good as before, Zhou County Ling saw Xiao Qianjun standing in the backyard for half an hour and couldn't help but step forward and shouted, "My lord, if you are not used to it when you first come to Songlin, even if you tell the lower officials, the county is not as full as the capital, but it is also unique, as long as the lower officials can do it, they must do it wholeheartedly." Zhou Xianling was afraid that he would not take good care of himself and anger this Shangguan.

"Lord Zhou, you are too worried, you are already very satisfied with taking care of me and doing your best." Xiao Qianjun looked at the county magistrate in front of him with a smile and then asked, "Zhou County ordered you to be an official here for a few years?" Zhou County Ling replied: "There are six years in this year. Xiao Qianjun asked suspiciously: "Six years?" According to the law, why is the prefect still standing still? ”

Zhou County's order said: "The lower officials don't know. The lower officials thought that they were still diligent and thrifty, and they didn't dare to slack off, and they didn't know why they couldn't get the approval of the imperial court for a long time. Hey......... "Zhou County Commander sighed, he had held his breath for many years, and it was a blessing to be able to vomit one or two today.

Xiao Qianjun said: "Then why don't you ask from above, or contact Shangguan often to accompany some 'feelings'." Zhou County Ling said: "The lower officials don't know how to be flexible, and those who are officials should put the people first, no matter where they are, it's the same, Songlin County has been here for six years, and every flower, grass, thing and scenery here is familiar, and it's a little unaccustomed to changing places." ”

"Haha......" Xiao Qianjun said with a smile: "I admire the state of mind of Zhou County, if I had your casualness back then, I wouldn't have to be old and sad now, I'm afraid of going to hell after death." ”

"Adults don't have to be sad, everyone's pursuits and circumstances are different, you can't generalize, as long as you don't deviate from your heart, even if you do something out of the ordinary, God will forgive you." Zhou County Ling felt that Xiao Qianjun and himself were very speculative, regardless of their identity, and said, "My lord, there are some thin wine and coarse dishes in the Xiaguan Mansion, I don't know if I can enjoy my face." "Zhou County's invitation is kind, there is no reason not to go, but let you break the bank." Xiao Qianjun said.

Zhou County led the way and said: "It's my honor to be able to go, the wine is home-brewed rice wine, the vegetables are grown in my own field, and I have marinated some meat and dried fish, all of which are my own family products, and I can't talk about breaking the bank." ”

"Lord Zhou is idle, Yazhi also grows some vegetables himself." Xiao Qianjun said, and Zhou County's order said: "Let the adults laugh at this is a home-cooked dish grown in the back garden of the cheap." "Home-cooked food is the most delicious, it's a thousand times better than going to a restaurant, I can't wait to eat it." Xiao Qianjun said, "Hehe, my lord, this is almost there." The two talked very happily and hurried to Zhou County's house.

"Qingyu, we've been on the road for a day and a night, let's rest." Zhou Jin said tiredly, he was very tired from traveling for days, and if there was a bed in front of him, he could sleep for several days, and he really wanted to stop and lie down for a while, but he was more worried about Qingyu, and the anxiety in his heart would overwhelm Qingyu.

He persuaded Qingyu to stop and rest from time to time along the way, but Qingyu was too concerned about the situation at home and kept hurrying despite the dissuasion, which was a day and a night. If this continues, something will definitely happen.

Zhou Jin threw a few whips on the horse's back, hurried in front to block Qingyu's way, and grabbed Qingyu's reins.

Qingyu rushed back in a hurry and saw that he was blocked in the way, and scolded loudly: "Get out of the way, don't block my way." ”

Zhou Jin also responded loudly: "Don't let me, Qingyu, look at what you have become, if you don't rest, you will be tired before you reach the pine forest." ”

Qingyu's eyes glared at Zhou Jin angrily and said, "You don't let me." "His eyes were bloodshot like a mad lion.

Zhou Jin grabbed the reins and said, "Don't let me, I'll hurt you by letting you go now." Qingyu said: "If you don't get out of the way, don't blame me for ignoring more than ten years of friendship." Saying that, the whip hit Zhou Jin's arm, although it was very painful, but Zhou Jin still did not let go of the reins in his hand, Qingyu followed another whip, and after three whips, Qingyu's eyes were red and he slipped from the horse's back and fell to the ground.

It's not that a manly man doesn't shed tears, but he hasn't met someone who is suitable to see him cry. Qingyu knelt on the ground on his knees and cried, and Zhou Jin quickly jumped down from the horse to support Qingyu when he saw this.

Qingyu cried bitterly and said heartbrokenly: "Zhou Jin, I can't stand you, I can't stand you." I missed home so much and was so scared of losing my parents. ”

Zhou Jin gently patted Qingyu's shoulder and said, "I know your pain, and I know that you are very anxious. But you have to take care of yourself first to have the energy and stamina to do what you want to do. Zhou Jin helped Qingyu to the open space to find a clean place and let him do it.

Zhou Jin took out the dry food and water prepared in Sun's Mansion from his horse and handed them to Qingyu.

Qingyu looked ahead blankly with blank eyes, numbly took the dry food handed to him by Zhou Jin, ate a few bites and put it on the ground, Zhou Jin put down the food in his hand, picked up some hay beside him, spread it on the ground, let Qingyu sleep on the ground, and took a cloak from the horse to cover his body.

At this time, it was already night, and the shadows of the trees were waving, and the sounds of birds and beasts were heard from time to time in the nearby mountains and forests, which was very terrifying. Zhou Jin didn't care about eating, and hurriedly picked up some dry firewood, took out the fire fold from his body, and lit the firewood.

Zhou Jin picked up what he hadn't finished and continued to eat, this was the second time the two had spent the night outside. Qingyu had already fallen asleep, and Zhou Jin was a little afraid to look up from time to time to see what was going on, wanting to find something in the night of the black hole, but there was nothing.
