Chapter 95: A false alarm
"Li Zhi County, the county lord of Yingrui, how can he stay in prison!"
Fan Ruhai didn't know why Zhou Yuting could swallow her anger to such a point, but presumably her patience at this time had reached the limit, and the prison of Yandao Yamen was even worse than the prison of Yangzhou Mansion, so he didn't have time to think about it, and got up and said to Li Yuntian.
In addition, since Zhou Yuting can make Wei Zhennan **, then he must be born beautiful, and the person who can be a jailer in the prison is not a good person, if he has a bad idea of her, then the consequences will be unimaginable, and his salt patrol imperial history will come to an end.
Li Yuntian was worried about the safety of Zhou Yuting and the others, so he stood up and made a gesture of please, and rushed to the Yandao Yamen Prison with Fan Ruhai.
Yang Muen and Wei Deguang and other salt merchants followed behind, in different moods, some were anxious, some were as usual, and some were secretly happy, everyone was playing their own small calculations in their hearts, everyone knew that Wei Deguang would definitely be unlucky after this incident.
When on the road, Fan Ruhai asked people to patrol the Yandao Yushi Yamen and transferred their soldiers, and now that the Yandao Yamen has an accident, it is naturally impossible for him to use the people of the Yandao Yamen to do things, one is to avoid suspicion, and the other is also the process.
When he came to the Yandao Yamen Prison, the cell boss had already led his men to wait outside the gate, knelt down on one knee to salute Fan Ruhai, and saw such a large group of people coming to Hulala, and he was suddenly surprised in his heart, and he didn't know what was going on.
Li Daniu and the others who were guarding outside the prison immediately greeted them, they had been staying here, and they had bought off a servant inside, as long as there were people in the prison who were unfavorable to Zhou Yuting and others, then they would break into the prison and rob the prison, anyway, Li Yuntian had already arranged it, and the bigger the matter was, the more Yandao Yamen would not be able to come to the stage.
"Lead the way." Fan Ruhai said to the cell head expressionlessly.
The cell boss didn't know why, he bowed down, and led the way in front with a flattering face, wondering why Fan Ruhai was interested in coming to check the prison at night, what happened?
A jailer standing next to the gate stood there with his body bowed, quietly looked up, first slightly stunned, and then stunned, staring at Li Yuntian who was walking behind Fan Ruhai.
This jailer was the doorman who received Zheng Boxin's benefits in the afternoon, he saw that Yang Muen, the president of the Salt Merchants Association, was walking behind Li Yuntian, and he was shocked in his heart, even Yang Muen, the governor of Yangzhou Prefecture, walked side by side with him, but he didn't expect to fall behind Li Yuntian, the name of this is great, is Li Yuntian more powerful than the Yangzhou prefect?
Entering the prison, Fan Ruhai and Li Yuntian went to the innermost cell, but what shocked Li Yuntian was that Zhou Yuting and the four were not inside, and the female prisoners in the prison looked timidly at the large group of people outside the door. The update is the fastest and most stable
"Say, what about the four new women you have captured?" Li Yuntian's face turned cold, he reached out and grabbed the collar of the cell leader, and forcibly lifted the fat cell head up.
"In ...... In the torture chamber! The cell boss was already pale with fright at this time, and stammered that just a quarter of an hour before Li Yuntian came, several jailers who had drunk alcohol carried Zhou Yuting and the four of them to the execution room in a daze.
As long as the women who enter the gate of the Yandao Yamen, there is no one who is not bullied by those jailers, and the jailers still like the delicate ladies of big families like Zhou Yuting and Chen Ningning.
For this kind of thing, the cell boss will turn a blind eye, presumably Zhou Yuting and others have no background and background, otherwise they would have been rescued a long time ago, so they would have been bullied.
"If something happens to them, I'm going to cut you with a thousand knives." Hearing this, Li Yuntian slammed the cell head to the ground, yelled at him murderously, and strode towards the torture cell outside the cell.
"Grab it!" Fan Ruhai's face became very ugly, and he waved his hand at the soldiers of the Yamen who patrolled the salt and imperial history behind him, and several big men stepped forward and pressed the cell head firmly to the ground.
Fan Ruhai didn't care about repairing the cell head now, and hurriedly chased after Li Yuntian, secretly praying in his heart that nothing would happen, otherwise tonight's incident would be stabbed to the sky.
Wei Deguang felt a little fluttering under his feet, and was about to fall to the ground, but was supported by a salt merchant on the side and stumbled over.
"Open the door, open the door!" The torture chamber was in the northwest corner of the courtyard of the cell, Li Yuntian rushed over and pushed it with his hand, and found that it had been locked inside, so he couldn't help but get anxious, and shouted loudly while banging on the iron door of the torture cell.
"Knock it out of the way!" The door of the torture room did not move at all, and there was not the slightest movement in it, and Fan Ruhai, who rushed over, saw this and said to the soldiers behind him.
Several soldiers immediately found a log and slammed it against the iron door of the torture chamber, and after a few blows, the iron door was deformed and fell to the ground with a bang.
Li Yuntian rushed in first, and when he saw the situation in the room, he couldn't help but be stunned at the door, looking quite surprised.
Fan Ruhai and the people who followed up were also stunned, looking at the scene in front of them with a surprised expression, no one expected such a thing to happen.
In the innermost corner of the house, Zhou Yuting protected Chen Ningning, Lu Cao and Zheng Wanrou, who looked panicked, with double knives in their hands, staring at the people who rushed into the torture room.
"Yuting, it's okay." Li Yuntian glanced at the jailers who were lying there like dead pigs on the ground, and immediately understood what was going on, and couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief in his heart, and walked quickly towards Zhou Yuting.
Seeing Li Yuntian, the nervous look on Zhou Yuting's face suddenly disappeared, and as soon as her hand was released, the two knives fell to the ground.
After coming to Zhou Yuting, Li Yuntian stretched out his hand and took her into his arms with Lu Cao, Chen Ningning and Zheng Wanrou, secretly feeling afraid, and decided not to play such a dangerous game in the future: if it weren't for Zhou Yuting's extraordinary skills, then he would have wanted to cry without tears.
"Put these lawless guys in jail." Fan Ruhai couldn't help but let out a sigh of relief, it seemed that Zhou Yuting and the others didn't look like they were suffering, so a hanging heart finally let go, and shouted at the soldiers behind him.
Those soldiers dragged out the hapless jailers on the ground and put them in the prison of the Salt Patrol Imperial Shi Yamen, this time I am afraid that if they don't die, they will have to shed their skin.
Green Calyx, Chen Ningning, and Zheng Wanrou were all frightened, their eyes were red, and they looked aggrieved, if it weren't for the presence of outsiders like Fan Ruhai, they would definitely have cried so much.
"Li Zhixian, it's not appropriate to stay here for a long time, let's go outside and talk." The torture room was not only dark and damp, but also smelled of blood, Fan Ruhai reached out and fanned his nose, came to Li Yuntian's side and said.
He felt that Li Yuntian was really blessed, and he actually hugged four little ladies who were like flowers and jade, and he didn't know which one was the Yingrui County Lord.
According to Fan Ruhai's calculations, the top priority now is to let Zhou Yuting and others leave the prison of Yandao Yamen, and then find a group of scapegoats to vent Zhou Yuting's anger, and then let Wei Deguang break the fortune to avoid disasters, and the matter will be turned into a big and small matter, anyway, Wei Deguang's family has money.
It's a pity that after leaving the torture room, Zhou Yuting stayed in the courtyard and didn't leave, and she wanted to ask the Yandao Yamen for justice, she couldn't be caught inexplicably and let out in a daze, which made Fan Ruhai quite a headache.
Of course, Li Yuntian couldn't help Fan Ruhai persuade Zhou Yuting to leave, how could the dignified daughter of the Hou Ye Mansion just let the people of the Yandao Yamen bully, and what was the face of the Hou Ye Mansion if it was spread out? What is the reputation of the Wise County Lord?
Since Zhou Yuting wants to seek justice, then Fan Ruhai has no choice but to find out about this matter, whoever stabs the basket will be responsible, and now that the matter has reached this point, he doesn't want to face the anger of the Marquis of Zhongyong.
After learning the news of the accident in the Yandao Yamen Prison, Shi Cheng'an, the transfer envoy of the two Huai Salt Roads, and the Tongzhi and deputy envoys of the Yandao rushed to the prison one after another, gathered in the courtyard of the prison and whispered and discussed, no one expected that such a thing would happen.
Shi Chengan and Fan Ruhai communicated privately, if they don't give Zhou Yuting an explanation, I'm afraid things will definitely not be good, once they get to the capital, then both of them will be unlucky.
Just imagine, a marquis's daughter with the title of county lord was arrested in a daze and put in the prison of Yandao Yamen, and he was almost humiliated.
Fan Ruhai didn't care how the Yandao Yamen arranged, it was Shi Chengan's business, anyway, the Yandao Yamen would hand him over someone to bear the guilt at that time, so as to calm Zhou Yuting's anger.
Shi Cheng'an's heart was also very annoyed, because Zhou Yuting's case was in charge of the judge on duty, and the person was also sent to prison by the judge on duty, so he didn't know what the situation was now, so he could only wait for the judge on duty to come and report the situation.
As a result, when the officials of the Yandao Yamen came about the same, the judge on duty who was full of alcohol hurriedly entered the courtyard.
The judge on duty, surnamed Qin, was drinking in the outer room of the room he was raising at night, so the people of the Yandao Yamen searched around to find him, and he was taken aback when he learned that there was an accident in the prison, and rushed over in a hurry.
Due to the urgency of the situation, Judge Qin didn't know exactly what was going on, and when he arrived at the prison and learned that one of the four women he had put in the prison today was actually the daughter of the loyal and brave Marquis who had been named the lord of Yingrui County by Emperor Yongle, his face turned pale with fright in an instant.
Judge Qin knew that this time the matter was a big problem, so he didn't dare to hide it, and told Shi Cheng'an what happened, of course, he has been an official for so long, so he naturally knows what to say and what not to say.
According to him, what happened was actually very simple, Yandao Yamen received a secret report in the morning, saying that four women who had an affair with a salt lord appeared in Yangzhou City, so he ordered to send someone to arrest him.
Because of the many affairs of the Yandao Yamen, he never had time to interrogate the women after he was arrested, and he was locked in a prison and prepared to pass through the hall tomorrow.
Although the magistrate of Yangzhou Prefecture sent an official letter to the Yandao Yamen in the morning, indicating that the four women arrested were family members of the magistrate of Hukou County, Jiujiang Prefecture, Jiangxi Province, this does not mean that the four women did not collude with the salt baron.
Therefore, for the sake of prudence, he did not release the four women who were suspected of being a heavy and secret salt lord, because Zhou Yuting did not identify himself, so he never knew that Zhou Yuting was the daughter of the Hou Ye Mansion. One
