Chapter 233: Alone in Prison
Liu was illiterate, so he hurriedly called Lan Duo in and asked Lan Duo to help read the letter.
Lan Duo followed Lan Ya to learn to read, picked up the letter, his eyes were red before he read it, and he whimpered and read: "Mother, say goodbye from now on, never see each other again, I hope to cherish it, be safe and safe, don't worry." Today, there is no way to get along, only money and wealth are given to each other, a house in the county, and orchid is given as a dowry; A house in Fucheng was given to Dalin. There are more than 50,000 taels of silver, which can be used to make flowers, dowries and mother's living needs, red apricot is not pure, don't let your father know, remember to remember. Female orchid bud off the pen. ”
The mother and daughter sat around and cried into tears.
The red apricot fox looked at the house suspiciously, saw the crying family members, and said sarcastically: "This is called people doing evil, not living, people don't accept it, they have their own days to collect it." ”
Hai's red eyes looked at Hongxing, she didn't hate, but because Lanya was not worth it, she saved Hongxing countless times, but in exchange for such cynicism and schadenfreude, as the so-called, human affection is as thin as paper.
The next day, Hai Shi had a deeper understanding of this sentence, especially when he heard that Yu Sanguang also went to the official to receive the reward, he laughed instead of anger, laughed so much that he burst into tears, laughed so much that his liver and intestines were broken, he beat his chest with laughter, and laughed so painfully.
Yu Sanguang looked at the crazy Hai family, and said angrily: "I am not a person who is greedy for money, this is for the sake of the entire Yu family, only in this way can I ignore her relationship with the Yu family, so that I will not be considered by the nine clans of Zhulian, that is, if you don't think about the Yu family, you also have to think about Dalin." ”
Hai Shi looked indifferently at her husband who shared the bed with her for fifteen or sixteen years, who was so strange, perhaps, she had never really known him. Hai Shi looked at the red apricot with a smug face, and said indifferently: "Yu Sanguang, you spend the money of your daughter's life to be at ease, but I feel that the sin is unforgivable, from now on, you and I only have the name of husband and wife, and there is no husband and wife affection." ”
The words, like hail falling from the sky, fell to the ground with a sound, shattered into a trumpet, and the wind passed without a trace.
Yu Sanguang fought a cold war, feeling that he had suddenly lost something very important, and when he thought about it carefully, he didn't know what he had lost.
Yu Sanguang didn't even know what he was wrong, he just told a few words of truth, since he hanged himself and didn't die, this Lan Ya is really unbelievable and weird, and it is clear that she is not her cowardly daughter, as Hong Xing said, she is exchanging a hundred taels of silver for a reward of one hundred taels of silver from someone who will die, so that everyone can live a good life in the future, is it wrong?
Zhang sighed, patted his son on the shoulder and said, "San'er, the broken drum can be beaten by anyone, but not you; The fire that burns the embers can add firewood to anyone, but not you, if the heart is cold, no amount of fire can warm it. ”
Zhang's back was like ten years old, rickety and staggering, Yu Sanguang then remembered that in this family, it was the Zhang family who had always been in the same boat as Lan Ya, and at this critical moment, she was the only one who did not go to the official to receive the reward, was she really wrong?
.......
Xiao Yu ordered his subordinates to pile up more than a foot thick offering paper on Fu Liangheng's table, looking at such a simple county office, he sighed: "Even the cup is a coarse porcelain bowl, it is really poor enough, as the so-called poor mountains and bad waters come out of the people, you are a poor mountain and bad water out of the demon girl, this bad deed, it is difficult to write." ”
He patted the confession paper calmly and said: "This is what the county lord ordered someone to ask for you, tsk, the demon girl is really a demon girl, and her ability is not small." ”
Fu Liangheng frowned, flipped through the top few villagers' confessions, and slapped them back on the table, frowning: "Why did the county lord intervene in this matter?" How convincing are these confessions? ”
Xiao Yu's eyes were also wide, and he said angrily: "In black and white, there are all human and material evidence, why is it not convincing?" ”
Fu Liangheng pulled out a few pieces of testimony and pointed out separately: "Flying away? Strokes of a real dragon? Shakers? Where is this witch, this is a fairy, right? If we know these skills, with mortals like us, can we catch and hold them? Can it be tied? ”
Xiao Yu slapped the table and said angrily: "The surname is Fu, the county lord is a third-grade grade, and you are a seventh-grade, do you dare to obey?" ”
Fu Liangheng rubbed his temples, and said in a gentle tone: "County Lord, there are your personal and physical evidence, this Yu Lanya is already meat on the chopping board, why bother to give birth to these more branches?" Just wait for the full moon night half a month later, when the national teacher sacrifices the sky with fire, you should go and see Zhuo Xiaowang first, I felt a cold in the prison some time ago, I don't know if it is better? ”
Xiao Yu's eyes lit up, and he twisted his fat body back out of the county office, which made Fu Liangheng breathe a long sigh of relief, and said to the official who started to do it: "The county has not come here yet?" ”
The official replied yes.
Fu Liangheng's face suddenly turned gloomy, this Qian County Cheng is the second person in Longmen County under him, three days of fishing, two days of drying nets, and one day of putting up, I heard that there is money to be made, the same as his surname, he runs faster than anyone else, I heard that there is a job, and he also runs faster than anyone else, but the direction of running is different, the former is rushing to ask, the latter is hiding and walking, belonging to the insatiable bureaucrats.
Fu Liangheng is the grandson of Governor Xie, he has been accustomed to officialdom since he was a child, and he is used to it, and he has no intention of being a clear stream.
Fu Liangheng sighed and said to the servant: "Go to the Fucheng Yunlai Inn and ask Liu Qingshi and Liu Gongzi, and let him help me sort out these headache files." ”
Liu Qingshi heard that Fu Liangheng asked him to help, and it was another sensational "demon girl case", so he didn't dare to delay for a moment, and came to the county from the city non-stop.
When Liu Qingshi rushed back to Longmen County from Fucheng, Huo Ran heard that this "demon girl" who was famous in Beixiao, shocked the imperial court, and created plagues and unsolved cases turned out to be his obsessive childhood sweetheart Yu Lanya.
Suddenly, the epidemic said that he would invite Liu Qingshi to see the county order, and the two did not enter the lobby and the back house, but walked to the back cell, the closer to the cell, the more worried Liu Qingshi's heart became.
The cell was built in the backyard of the county government, with a black door, more than a foot thick, wrapped in copper sheets on all sides, which had been corroded into mottled rust over time, and in the cold season, it seemed more isolated and helpless and ruthless.
Lan Ya is the first demon girl imprisoned in Longmen County Jianya for more than 100 years, and may become the last demon girl imprisoned, Fu Liangheng does not dare to slack off, Lan Ya has been isolated from other prisoners so far, and locked in a cell at the innermost end of the prison, in which a large iron cage is cast with pig iron, and the iron bars of the iron cage are as thick as a baby's arm, and only three iron locks are added.
The man accidentally touched the iron bar of the cage, and there was a dull humming sound, and the echo echoed around the prison, visible and heavy.
Rao is like this, Fu Liangheng is still not at ease.
In the iron cage, Lan Ya's hands and feet were put in the iron ring, and the whole person was pulled like a big character, and there was no landing up and down, and he was forced to be pulled in the air.
Outside the iron cage, the windows of the cell were sealed with molten iron, and there was no light in the already dark cell, and it was difficult to distinguish the darkness.
At the door of the iron cage, there is a foot-long peachwood sword, and above the cage, a circle of yellow mounted paper is pasted, and the paper is full of strange red patterns. In the four corners of the cell, there were four buckets, which were full of muddy boy urine, which shone with an eerie glow under the dim oil lamp.
The dim oil lamp was placed on the table in front of the cage door, and behind the table, on the Taishi chair, sat Fu Liangheng with a lazy expression.
Fu Xian Ling fiddled with the startling wood in his hand, like playing with a toy in a child's hand, and said indifferently: "I didn't expect that the fairy child under the seat of Huang Xiangu, who was rumored to be miraculous in the past, turned out to be a femme fatale and a demon girl who attracted the curse of heaven. ”
Lan Ya's limbs were hung by four chains, she was already numb to her own body, her head hung softly, and there was no trace of heat in the cell, but it made her feel terrifyingly hot, and the sweat she shed, wet and dry, dry and wet, the originally beautiful pink gown, had been wrinkled like a broken rag, tangled together, and the girl who was full of vitality was like a lifeless broken doll at this time, swinging in the air.
Fu Liangheng didn't expect Lan Ya to answer him, and said to himself: "You cured the county lord's plague, but the county lord did not hesitate to go against the crown prince and the king of Beixiao, looking for human and physical evidence, and all the evidence pointing to Zhuo Xiaowang was directed to you; You saved the villagers, but for the sake of the county lord's petty profits, they wrote a book of 10,000 words and confessions, pushing you into the abyss step by step; And your father, the confession he wrote was the longest, more than half a foot thick, from the time you killed Wong Tai Sin to scare Zhang, until you designed to harm your sister-in-law and aunt, tsk, I can't help but applaud, you saved everyone in your heart, but everyone pushed you into the fire, you, everyone sentenced you to death, right? ”
Lan Ya finally raised her eyelids, the streamer flashed inside, I don't know if it was the sad tears or the reflection of the light, for a long time, the dark little face actually smiled, like a firefly in the dark night, the moonlight in the still water, the brilliance flowed, but it was beautiful and unreal, and it was unbearable.
Lan Ya licked her chapped lips with her tongue and said in a hoarse voice, "I didn't expect that I could do a good thing before I died." The villagers are unable to sustain due to the flood, but with this reward, they can survive this difficult winter, and when the spring flowers bloom and there is more food on the mountain, they no longer have to worry about being starved to death and frozen to death. ”
Fu Liangheng looked at the girl in front of him with deep eyes, at a young age, he always did something amazing, the two had no grudges, Nai He last time in Puren Temple, when he confronted Xiao Shami, Lan Ya rescued the turtle, so that he lost a huge ugliness in front of the students, so Fu Liangheng would be so cynical, he even imagined Lan Ya in tears, begging and begging.
The county magistrate's face was as dark as the rain was coming, and the officials naturally had to work hard to please them, and the two officials each picked up a long bamboo pole, one in front of the cage of the orchid buds, and the other in the back, regardless of the up, down, left and right.
The tip of the bamboo pole was sharpened into a sharp shape, piercing the heavy gown, piercing into the immature skin, in the quiet cell, and even the sound of piercing clothes and skin could be heard, Lan Ya gasped in pain, his body, I don't know how many times I was stabbed, how many times I hurt, I only know, every inch of skin on my body is twitching pain, this pain, Ren Lanya has searched the sea of words up and down for five thousand years, and I can't find a word to describe this kind of bone-deep pain.
