This "four-storey high, five-storey facing domain" is impressive from a distance.

At this time, it is the beginning of the first month of the lunar month, the crescent moon is like a silver bud hook, this domain, each tile on the eaves is lit with a lamp, the candle flame is shining, looking from afar, like a golden flying dragon soaring in the night sky of Miao.

Walking into the feudal building, entering from the main entrance, there is a long main corridor, about 100 steps, on both sides are three-storey wings, under the eaves of the main corridor, there are all flowery courtesans and dancers, almost hundreds, all waiting for the drinkers to order their flower cards. Around the north and south courtyards, there are small pavilions for drinking, and every aisle and pavilion are hung with crystal clear bead curtain embroidery, full of dazzling colors.

"It's Yanjing, and there is no such prosperous place," Zhang Yubo Chongguan lived in Yanjing for two years for three years before he was put into the local office, every time he thought of Yanjing, he was somewhat yearning, but he smiled in his mouth, "I have lived in Jiangning for a long time, I can't miss it, I can listen to Su Meixiao's singing, and I forgot that it was a foreign country in the clouds...... "He forgot that Jiangdong County is his hometown, and Jingshi is another country."

"Speaking of Su Mei singing, Lin Lian has a little experience...... Lin Mengde said with a smile next to him, although he was forced to agree to secretly help Lin Lian set up his own door in Jiangning, but he has always been the elder of Lin Lian's clan, and it is casual to say a few harmless jokes about Lin Lian.

"Lin Juren recognizes Miss Su Mei?" Zhang Yubo asked.

Small singing is a popular mode of Qingle in the Da Yue Dynasty, which can be regarded as the pop music of the Da Yue Dynasty, Su Mei Yi shocked Jiang Ning, and was still good at singing, restarting and killing, singing in a shallow and low voice, full of infinite tenderness and honey, and the most able to unload people's hearts. However, at this time, Lin Jian could only make a wry smile, and the people who knew Su Mei only knew that he was entangled with Su Mei when he participated in the township test in Jiangning, which really couldn't be regarded as a glorious thing, "When Jiangning took the township test, he had seen two sides from afar," Lin Jian squeaked and dealt with Zhang Yubo, who wanted to reveal this without mentioning it.

Lin Mengde didn't want to let him go so easily, pulled the brocade-clothed guy in the mansion, and asked, "Did Miss Su Mei's flower card give people some to take away tonight?" ”

"It's still there," said the brocade-clothed boy, "I'm going to help the four masters ask Miss Su Mei if she is free." ”

"Go ahead and ask...... Let's just say that Master Zuo Si Kou Zhang, Lin Lian, the proprietor of Jiyun Society, and Lin Ji Jufutang Warehouse, Lin Mengde are waiting for Miss Su Mei. Lin Mengde knew that even if Su Mei was idle, it would depend on her mood to ask her to come out to sing, and there were few people in Jiangning City who had the face to invite Su Mei out to sing and help the wine, patted the shoulder of the brocade maid and asked him to go quickly, and smiled at Lin Lian, "Don't worry, I will pay for you for twenty taels of silver for listening to music." ”

Lin Jingzhong only smiled and sat in the elegant room with Lin Lian, Lin Mengde and Zhang Yubo, he also wanted to see what Su Mei, who was famous in Jiangning, looked like; Zhou Pu, as a servant, naturally had to be silent, he thought in his heart that Lin Mengde and Zhang Yubo's face was just not enough, Lin was bound here, how could Su Mei come.

Lin Mengde and Zhang Yubo didn't have much expectations for inviting Su Mei, Su Mei put the flower card in the mansion, most of her people were still in Baiyuan, even if she was interested in earning the twenty taels of silver for listening to music, there were people who went to the mansion tonight to buy drunk people with a higher status than them, and Su Mei might not be able to look at this. A few of them sat in the small pavilion, asked the little maid to bring the wine and food, and said with a smile that they were waiting for Su Mei to have a cup of tea, and without replying to the letter, they ordered another flower card to accompany the wine.

Lin Jian invited Zhang Yubo to come because he wanted to inquire about the inside story of the Yamen of the Inspectorate Division. Zhang Yubo had heard Yang Pu say that Gu Wuchen intended to invite Lin Tie into the curtain but refused to do so, and recently said that Gu Wuchen had also mentioned Lin Tie in public many times in the Yamen of the Inspectorate Envoy Department after taking office, probably to build momentum for Lin Tie to enter the office, and thought that the four members of the imperial court were so dedicated to a small move to enter the office, which was really enviable, Lin Tie wanted to inquire about the inside story of the Inspector Envoy Division, and he naturally told the inside story of what he could tell the ears of others.

"When I first entered Jiangning, I took a boat through the Jinchuan River from Wumiao Shuiguan into the city, and outside the mouth of the Jinchuan River, I saw that the prison of the Inspectorate was built on the river island at the mouth of the river, but I never saw any mention of this prison in Jiangdong from the Tang Copying Post Newspaper?"

"The north is dangerous, nine out of ten exiles died, and the Jiangning Criminal Department requested that the exile sentence be changed to imprisonment because the punishment was too heavy, and because the Jiangning Criminal Department had no right to set up a prison, Jiangdong built a prison city on Jiangdao according to the Prosecutorial Department to detain the exiles. This proposal was vetoed by Yanjing only two years after its first operation, and Jiangdao Daqian was only used as an ordinary prison for the Inspectorate Division, which also had a prison in the city, and the prison outside the Jinchuan River only held prisoners who had been sentenced to prison...... Therefore, the prison outside the Jinchuan River is really a very deserted yamen, and it is in the river outside the city, swinging towards the sky and making trouble from time to time. Zhang Yubo couldn't help but smack his lips and shake his head when he mentioned Jiangdao Prison.

Lin Jian smiled slightly, knowing why Zhang Yubo said that Jiangdao Prison was a deserted yamen.

The prisoners of this dynasty can be atonement for their crimes with money, 4,000 yuan can be redeemed for one year, and the criminal law of this dynasty is up to five years in prison, and all exiles after five years are given, that is to say, 20,000 yuan can be exempted from all sentences.

The Jiangdao Prison is only for prisoners who have been sentenced to prison, just imagine, those who have money have already used money to launder their crimes, only the poor people who have no money are honestly put in the prison to serve hard labor, and the prison officials and jailers naturally can't get any oil and water from them, and even have to pay for food to these poor prisoners.

The city jails are different, where suspects awaiting trial are mainly held, and even witnesses of the case have to be detained in the city jails awaiting trial, and the suspects have to pay bribes to the jailers if they want to live a more comfortable life. Not to mention the suspected prisoners awaiting trial, there are also many people who have extorted money from the prison officials and bankrupted their families.

"But it's hard to say, it was Yang Ye of the Jiangning Criminal Department Langzhong who proposed to build a prison city at the beginning, and now Lord Yang has been transferred to Yanjing to serve as Langzhong of the Criminal Department, maybe the discussion of the prison city will be readjusted every other day, if all the exiles in Jiangdong County are imprisoned in the Jiangdao prison outside the city......" Speaking of this, Zhang Yubo smiled, patted Lin Lian's shoulder and said, "Lord Gu appreciates you so much, you don't need to take this risk, even if you can't get the position of the prison in the city, according to the fat shortage of the Yamen of the Inspector Division!" ”

Lin Jian also looked at each other and smiled, with the meaning that silence is better than sound here, but he was disdainful in his heart, but he was helpless, Zhang Yubo was born in Jinshi, and he was for Qingliu, and these so-called "Qingliu" had already soaked into his bones the idea of "being an official only for money".

According to the practice of this dynasty, the first time to enter the official position from the eighth grade or above, it is necessary to be born as a scholar and a lord, and the door shade to enter the country and obtain an excellent grade. Gu Wuchen promised to choose according to the position of the subordinate officer of the inspector, but in fact, he could only choose the official positions of the ninth rank and those who had not entered the stream.

Lin Mengde sat next to him and listened for a long time, and slowly heard some clues, thinking that Lin Lian's Gu family really had a good future, and there were many people in Jiangning City waiting for the alternate officials and the prisoners of Guozijian who didn't know how many, and there was no hope when his beard turned white.

In these years, the people are afraid of officials, and they are even more afraid of cruel officials, and this jailer is the most famous among all officials. As the saying goes, "a fat belly with both hands goes to prison and becomes a monkey", it is one thing for this jailer to have a bad reputation, but it is a very oily dispatch, Lin Mengde thought to himself: Does Lin Jian want to be a prisoner? You can't really offend him in the future.

Lin Jian is looking at the position of the prison of Jiangdao Prison outside the city, according to the inspector of the prison is a small official from the ninth grade, it is appropriate for him to enter the office with the name of his son.

The prison was originally a military position, and Emperor Renzong was compassionate about the prison and prudent punishment, and re-elected the Confucian minister to govern the county prison, which has formed a practice in the past hundred years, and only the civil minister was used for the post of prison. Emperor Renzong didn't know that the torture of Confucian scholars to extort prisoners was several times more ruthless than martial arts, and it was full of tricks.

Lin Tie took a fancy to this position, but did not want to extort a huge amount of money from prisoners and their families, he wanted to build a warehouse at the mouth of the Jinchuan River, the biggest difficulty was that the estuary of the river and the lake bandits were frequently in and out, he took a fancy to the Jiangdao Prison is facing the Jinchuan Estuary, once he was appointed as the prisoner of the Jiangdao Prison, he could use the force of the garrison prison to guard the estuary, in order to protect the safety of the Jinchuan Estuary Warehouse - he wanted to be a public and private couple.

Lin Jian was worried that someone would come to compete with him for this position, but after listening to Zhang Yubo's analysis, Jiangdao Prison was really an errand with little oil and water to fish, extremely heavy responsibilities and full of risks, so he put his mind at ease and thought that he would go to Gu Wuchen tomorrow to allow him to go to Jiangdao Prison to be a prison officer.

The time for a cup of tea had passed, Zhang Yubo looked out of the curtain and complained: "Even if Miss Su Mei doesn't come, she should give a reply......

Lin Jian knew what Zhang Yubo meant, and said to Lin Jingzhong: "Call someone to come in and let them bring the flower plate to them, or let them directly find a few girls who are familiar with Lord Zhang to come over and let Lord Zhang choose ......."

Lin Jingzhong was just about to get up, when he heard Su Mei say at the door: "Is this to drive me out?" ”

Zhang Yubo and Lin Mengde heard Su Mei's clear and charming voice, and hurriedly stood up and went to the door to greet them: "Who will drive away the Su family?" ”

Only then did Lin Jian see the scenery of Su Mei in Jiangning, Zhang Yubo was the Zuo Si Kou of the Soldiers and Horses Division of Jiangning Mansion who joined the army, and Lin Mengde was also a wealthy businessman in Jiangning City, and Su Mei was the person who could make Zhang Yubo and Lin Mengde stand up and greet each other. Lin Lian smiled at the corner of his mouth, and also stood up and walked behind Zhang Yubo and Lin Mengde, and said: "Everyone Su can appreciate their faces, Lin Lian can't ask for it......" I watched Su Meiluo's clothes fluttering, Peicui struck, his sleeves showed his wrists, his ten fingers were slender, he looked forward to the brilliance of people, his eyes were clear and pure as a baby, this was the first time he saw Su Mei dressed up after Lin Lian's soul, looking at the smile on her face, and at the moment, there was a little heart swaying.

Su Mei ignored Zhang Yubo and Lin Mengde, and only whispered to Lin Lianqi: "Lin Juren looks at Su Mei like this, do you recognize Su Mei?" ”
