Split one
Late at night.
Xu Yi secretly ran out of his room and walked to the door of Xu Zhibei's room.
"Xiaobei, did you sleep? I'm Xu Yi. Xu Yi secretly looked at the room that was still unlit.
Xu Yi was afraid, she was afraid that she would split up tomorrow, the Xu family did not agree, not only could she not get her dowry, but even the money of Uncle Xu's family, including Xiaobei's dowry, was taken away by those wolves.
"Sister Gardenia, don't worry, I didn't have any dowry in the first place, this time it's mainly for you, and we don't have dignity when we can't leave. By the way, do you know our county order? ”
Xu Yi thought for a while, "Are you talking about Song Zhixian, Song Guangquan?" ”
"Yes, that's him."
"Song Zhixian I know, he has a good relationship with my father, Xiaobei, why are you asking this?" Xu Yi looked at Xu Zhibei puzzled.
"Sister Gardenia, since Song Zhixian has a good relationship with Uncle Bai, then we can invite him to witness tomorrow, and I believe that we can naturally get justice."
"Yes, why didn't I think of it, but, Xiaobei, when are we going to find Song Zhixian." Tomorrow, the family will begin.
"Tomorrow the family will start at the end of the day, and we women are not allowed to participate, so we will go at the hour." It is rumored that Song Zhixian is a noble person, and he is good friends with Xu Bai, the second son of the Xu family, and he also knows some things about the Xu family.
"That's right, Sister Gardenia, when we go to Song Zhixian tomorrow morning, you wear the most plain and longest-lasting clothes, we are still in filial piety, we can't wear bright clothes, and the plain clothes you wear can also let Song County Ling see how you are doing in this family."
"Okay, Xiaobei, cousin will listen to you for everything." Looking at Xu Zhibei in front of him, he really felt different from before, but it was nothing to think about, after all, in such a house of jackals and tigers, if he is not stronger, he will die first.
The next day.
"Sister Gardenia, are you in the house? I'm Xiaobei. Before the hour, Xu Zhibei crept to Xu Yi's house and discussed with Xu Yi how to go out of Xu's house to find Song Zhixian.
"Xiaobei, come here, I've already secretly said hello, the gate and side door here are guarded by the family, we can't go out at will, but there are two dog holes in the back garden, which are usually sneaked out when the family is fine."
"Okay, then let's get ready and go."
After Xu Yi sorted out everything, the two wanted to go to the back garden.
"Xiaobei, this is it, let's get out quickly." Seeing that there was no one around, Xu Yi pulled Xu Zhibei behind him and came out first. Turned around and stretched out his hand to Xu Zhibei in the rear and pulled Xu Zhibei out.
"Xiaobei, let's go quickly, I'm afraid we won't be able to see Song Zhixian later."
"Auntie, don't worry, it's just the beginning of the morning, and there's still an hour."
Xu Zhibei crawled out of the dog hole, and saw that out of the dog hole was a street, many people who bought food and played, and it was also a prosperous one, no wonder the family in the house would run out.
"Let's go, let's go to Song Mansion now."
The Song Mansion is actually not far away, almost a few hundred meters away.
"Anyone? Is Song Zhixian at home? ”
The "Squeak" door opened, and an old man came out of it, and when he saw the plainly dressed second daughter, he didn't have the slightest contempt.
"May I ask what you are looking for Lord Song?"
"Hello, we are from the Xu family, this is Xu Yu, the widow of the second young man of the Xu family, at this time, I want to ask Song Zhixian to preside over the witness of the third young man of the Xu family and the Xu family. Song Zhixian can also give us a fairness. Xu Zhibei said neither humbly nor arrogantly.
Steward Song knew that his county master and the second young man of the Xu family had always been good friends, and he turned his head to look at Xu Yu beside Xu Zhibei, and saw that Xu Yi was dressed in coarse linen clothes, and his head was even bare, and there was no jewelry, which was also angry at the Xu family's practice.
"I'm sorry, our lord should be handling the case in the yamen now, if the two of you are not in a hurry, let me report to my wife first, and see if I can enter the house and wait for our lord."
"No need, thank you Steward Song, we won't go to the Song Mansion to talk about it, we'll go to the Yamen to find Lord Song now."
Steward Song looked at the two who were drifting away and shook his head helplessly.
In fact, the yamen is not far away, just a street away from the Song Mansion.
Xu Zhibei saw that the yamen was guarded, so he and Xu Yi had no right and ability to enter, and the gate could not enter, so he could only think of other ways.
"Sister, come and follow me."
Xu Zhibei took Xu Yan around the county office and found that every door was guarded.
"Xiaobei, how should we get in?"
Xu Zhibei, who was thinking of a way, twisted his head and saw a wooden cart full of straw.
"Sister, look, we can get in from here."
Xu Yan looked at the place where Xu Zhibei was pointing, his eyes widened, this! How do you flip into this!
When Xu Zhibei saw Xu Yi's surprised appearance, he knew that Xu Yan might be a little scared, after all, in this era, there is a woman who dares to climb over the wall.
"Sister, if you don't dare, I'll go first and then pull you up."
Xu Yi looked at Xu Zhibei, he was several years older than Xu Zhibei, but he had always let his cousin give advice, at this time, because of his fear, let Xu Zhibei, who was a head and a half shorter than himself, take the lead, and he was not worthy of being this cousin.
"No, Xiaobei, I'm taller than you, my strength is greater than yours, you've just recovered from your illness, and I can't let you go up first. In this way, I will climb up first, and then pull you up. ”
Xu Zhibei looked at the height, indeed, Xu Yan climbed up easier than himself.
"Okay, Sister Gardenia, then you should be careful."
The two pushed the wooden cart full of straw to the wall together, Xu Yi climbed up little by little, and Xu Zhibei supported the car next to the car to prevent the car from running and falling off Xu Yi.
"Okay, Xiaobei, you be careful, take my hand, come, be careful."
Xu Zhibei climbed up, looked at the height, and was thinking about how to jump, and when she looked back, she saw that Xu Yan had already jumped, and she didn't care if she was tall or not, so she also jumped down.
"Xiaobei, are you okay, I want to jump down to pick you up, why did you jump so fast?"
"I'm fine, sister, are you okay?"
Xu Yan looked at himself, moved a few times, and there was no major injury.
"I'm fine, but my clothes are torn and my hands are scratched."
"That's good, let's go to the prefectural magistrate now."
The two looked at their surroundings and didn't know where to start.
"Hey! Who are you and how did you get in? Don't move! “
Just when the two were looking for Song Zhixian, a catcher suddenly came to them.
Xu Zhibei hurriedly blocked Xu Yi and said calmly
"This big brother who catches quickly, the two of us are the maids in the Song Zhi County Mansion, and it was the lady who sent the two of us to find Lord Song, I don't know if this Lord can make it convenient and take the two of us to Song Zhi County."
I don't know if I saw that the two of them were already in the yamen, thinking that the brothers at the front gate had let them in, so I didn't have much suspicion. "Now the magistrate should be in Yizhuang, so let's take you over now, I don't know if you are afraid, if you are afraid, just wait at the door."
"Thank you so much for this big brother. I'm sorry for you. Xu Zhibei said calmly.
Brother Kuai scratched his head embarrassedly, "That, don't call me Brother Kuai, my surname is Wang, and my single name is a righteous word, just call me Wang Yi." ”
"Okay, thank you, Brother Wang Yi."
Wang Yi took the two of them around left and right, and finally arrived at Yizhuang.
"Lord Zhixian is inside, there was a murder a few days ago, and Lord Song and Qi Zuo are checking the body at this time. If you are not afraid, go in. ”
"Okay, thank you Brother Wang Yi, Sister Gardenia, you just wait for me at the door, I'll go in and find the master."
"Okay."
Wang Yijian may have been because Xu Yi was a little scared, so he kept chatting with her to divert her attention.
Xu Zhibei walked in slowly, and at a glance, he saw Song Zhixian standing next to the corpse.
"My lord, the small one has been examined, and the silver needles in the throat of the deceased are black, and they have been poisoned. However, at the time of the crime, there were also witnesses who saw that the deceased had been besieged by the people of the gambling house, and the little teacher was not there, and the little one did not dare to conclude whether the deceased was poisoned or beaten to death. ”
After Song Zhixian heard this, his eyebrows were even more wrinkled.
"Lord Song, the little girl can help the adults test it."
Song Guangquan turned his head to see that it was a little girl who was less than his chest height talking.
"You say, you have a way?" Song Guangquan doesn't care how old Xu Zhibei is, how he got in, there is a sky outside the sky, there are people outside the world, maybe the little disciples of which sect sneaked out to play and didn't have money to come.
