Chapter 71: The Mansion Prison

The cells all looked similar, dark, damp, and smelled unpleasant—this was the general impression of ancient cells, and the first time I came to the cell, I didn't know if the cells in other parts of the Tang Dynasty were the same as here.

It's darker, but it's ventilated, there's no dampness, and there's no unpleasant smell.

The cell seems to be in the shape of "Hui", with several doors inside and outside, and the four corners are guarded by officials, who say that they are guarding the prisoners.

Officials are at risk of being reported at any time.

If Fu Yin comes often, I am afraid that there is indeed such a risk.

The official pointed in a direction, tightened, and quietly left.

She walked as slowly as she could, went as fast as she could, took a few steps and fell back into the middle.

The guy curled up in a ball...... Like herbs?

"Whew-"

"Whew-"

In the cell opposite was the sound of a man snoring.

A large lump of rice was lying on a straw mat, and its abdomen was bobbing up and down.

There was a monkey nesting next to him.

Hurriedly squatted down in front of the fence: "Little grass girl? ”

only shouted, and the shrunken mass immediately trembled, and the next moment, she sat up suddenly.

The grass looked straight behind the fence with her eyes.

I was stunned for a moment.

Fangcao muttered to herself, "I dreamed of Miss." ”

"Fangcao, come here."

Fangcao, who was about to lie down, slowly moved over and reached out of the fence.

"It's not a dream, I'm back." She grabbed Fangcao's hand.

Fangcao's hand suddenly pulled out.

He hurriedly grabbed her arm.

"Hot ...... Hot? ”

Fangcao's mouth pouted, and her mouth immediately opened.

She covered it.

"What happened that day?"

Fangcao shook her head, and pea-sized tears hit the back of her hand.

Looked around.

A chill ran down the back of his neck.

Don't drop the chain.

Whispered: "Don't cry!" ”

The woman from Hongjia Village who was locked up with Fangcao woke up, and the two of them hurriedly stepped forward, Fangcao covered her mouth by herself, and she didn't cry, but her shoulders twitched.

The two women told the story of that day.

"The shopkeeper is all framed!"

"Why did we poison that man?"

The version heard outside is similar to what the people in the shop say.

The deceased's name was Wu Yiru, and he ate in Xiaodongtian, and before he finished eating, he fell to the ground.

Died on the spot.

And the more troublesome point - Wu Yiru is a student of Huai'an Academy.

All of them were originally pillars of the country, and it was definitely a troublesome thing to die in Xiaodongtian.

Therefore, even if everyone knew that it was impossible for Xiao Dongtian to poison a diner, he was still in his own shop, but Xiao Dongtian had to come out and take the blame.

Unless, find the real murderer.

The ancient technology level was limited, and there was no surveillance camera, what can the results of autopsy and drug test say?

The real murderer is afraid that he will get away with it early!

Teary-eyed.

It was almost time, and she got up to leave, but Fangcao was holding on to the corner of her clothes.

"Miss......" Fangcao was still sobbing.

"Don't worry, I'll find a way to get you out."

When the passage went to and fro, when the official opened the door, the corner of his eye caught a line of sight.

Glanced.

I was stunned for a moment.

In the corner was a small cell, with only one person, and judging by his size, it should be a man.

The servants are still unlocking chains.

She walked over and looked against the fence.

The man was watching her, too.

The light was dim, and the man seemed to blend into that dimness, but she looked hard—she recognized him!

Until she went out, the man was also motionless.

The official happened to change shifts, and she left the government prison with him, carrying a wine jar in his hand.

"Big brother, what happened to the man in that corner just now?"

"You mean the three gates?"

"Yes, it's him, swarthy."

"You've got a good look! That guy was born black, the same color as the big sauce! He came in in in a fight, and after being locked up for a while, no one came to take him back, and he was a white eater! ”

"How long is it going to be held?"

"It's the New Year."

"Can you release it in advance like him?"

The official raised his hand and rubbed his thumb and forefinger: "If someone takes money, release him immediately." ”

"How much?"

"Five hundred dollars, not one less."

"So much?"

"Shopkeeper Liu, what are you asking him to do? It's better to think of a way, how to save those few in your shop! The official leaned closer and whispered: "Before you, there were a few people who came to see your shop, but none of them let you in, but I let you in, do you know why?" ”

Shake your head silently.

The official continued: "My mother-in-law is working in the backyard of the government, and she listened to the steward, Gu Gong likes to eat the crab roe soup dumplings from your shop. ”

Ouch, she couldn't turn around for a while.

What does this have to do with crab roe soup dumplings?

"Please also make it clear to the eldest brother."

"Gu Gong will definitely try your case personally."

The official took the wine and left.

She was left standing still, looking up at the moon.

Is this a hint that she is going to stuff some baggage?

Didn't you hear of it...... Gu Kaizhi is a simple style of Fu Yin?

If a gift could solve this problem, she really couldn't solve it - she was too shy to speak.

It's not early.

Unable to return to the courtyard where she had lived, she decided to find an inn.

Before looking for an inn, I went to a small cave again.

Alas.

The officials were still guarding in front of the small cave gate.

It's already so late.

Go to the place where there is an inn.

It was not long before I left Xuefu Road, so I walked a few steps and looked back.

Keep going.

There is a corner in front.

Walk in, back against the wall, slow your breathing.

Wait quietly.

One breath.

Two breaths.

Fifty or sixty breaths.

Is she too nervous?

He was about to stretch his neck to peek in.

Suddenly—

A black ball crashed into the eyes!

"Ahh

The two came to a glance collision.

She saw the other party's appearance clearly, but the other party only saw a pair of eyes in the black wall.

"What are you doing with me?" She covered the other person's mouth.

"Hmm...... Uh-huh-hmm......"

"Then I'll let go, don't you scream?"

He nodded for her to let go.

As soon as you let go of your hand.

He hurriedly stood beside her, clinging to the wall, and said with a shush, "There are people in the back." ”

The two had just leaned against the wall when someone ran by.

"You come with me."

"There's a hidden alley over here."

"Hidden Alley?"

"Look at the road, in fact, you can still pass."

Turn into an alley that is only large enough for one person to pass sideways.

After walking for a while, I changed to another alley.

Turning around, I came out and went to the river, not far from the flower workshop.

The vicinity of Fanhuafang is still lively.

The two sat down by the river.

"Why are you following me?"

"I'm waiting for you."

The person who called her "waiting" for her was Wang Zijing.

"I know you're not in the shop, and it's not like they said, you ran away alone, I've been resting in the academy recently, and I've been walking to the small cave from time to time to take a look, but I really met you tonight."

"And then?"

"Shopkeeper Liu, I can help you testify!"
