Chapter 5: This Son Is Hard to Say (5)

If this happened to someone else, I am afraid that the government would not care, but the Chu family is a well-known big family in the city, and even has some potential connections with the officials in the capital, and the local petty officials will not be offended.

It could even be very positive.

The crime of theft is not punishable by death, and it needs to be locked up for a few days to keep a record.

It may be nothing for ordinary people, but for a person who wants to participate in the imperial examination, this case record will become an obstacle for him.

No matter how Zhang Shusheng explained, he couldn't avoid this catastrophe.

When the people in the government saw that he had a hard mouth, they refused to bow their heads, and used a little punishment, and they all confessed in less than half a pillar of incense.

But it wasn't really him who stole the money bag, he refused to admit it anyway, and the people in the government knocked him unconscious and forced him to twist his fingers and draw them.

Painting the charge is evidence of the crime, and the official family sees that he has the name of a showman, and it is not too much.

There are too many talents in a small town, and Zhang Shusheng's village may be something to be proud of, but in this city it is not as good as a rich person.

Zhang Shusheng experienced the taste of prisoners under the stairs, the damp and smelly cell, the sudden appearance of rats, and the scare of his cellmates from time to time, all made him angry.

Officials are corrupt, bullying the weak and afraid of the hard, rich are masters, and such officials are moths of the whole country!

But now that he is in prison, he can only think about it in his heart. If it was a plaything to be with the little fox before, now I am afraid that the prodigal son will go back to talk.

"Zhang Shusheng! Someone's looking at you! ”

He didn't dare to go up to the bed that had been reviewed by the rat again, so he could only shrink into the corner to reduce his presence, so that this small but very scary little thing could not notice him.

Hearing the jailer's words, Zhang Shusheng subconsciously looked towards the prison door. There were two people standing outside the door, a woman in gray and a boy in white.

The first thing he saw was the man in white, the clothes, the temperament did not look like an ordinary person, the other party also saw him, just smiled kindly and nodded, and then looked at the woman next to him.

Just at a glance, Zhang Shusheng felt even more that the other party was not an ordinary person.

The man in white only gave him a look, and then looked at Yin Xi who came with him, "Miss Huang, Xiaosheng has brought you here, you can say a few words." ”

Yin Xi was looking at Zhang Shusheng, who he hadn't seen for a few days, his clothes were dirty and torn, and his hair was messy. The other party is looking up at this side, so that his face is exposed. His face is not necessarily any better, and being dry and thin is his vital sign now.

The smell of the cell is really not very good, as if it hasn't been cleaned for half a year, it's disgusting.

Zhang Shusheng was locked alone in a cell with a stone bed, no warm bedding, only moldy straw, and the rest was empty.

There was a bowl next to the cell door, and the food was packed together, and it looked like prison food.

Zhang Shusheng didn't seem to have eaten much, and at this time, there was a little mouse next to the prison meal that was destroying the remaining food little by little.

Before being arrested, Huang Yinger tried her best to cook meals, and when Yin Xi arrived, his living standard was lowered, even if he drank porridge, he was full of unwillingness.

How could he eat these leftovers?

"Childe, I'll say a few words to the scholar, please avoid it."

The man in white smiled and left.

After he left, Zhang Shusheng rushed over with a surprisingly fast speed, grabbing the cell door with both hands, "Ying'er, you save me!" ”

Yin Xi just looked at him and didn't speak.

This made Zhang Shusheng very panicked, now only Huang Yinger is outside, if she doesn't save him, he will not spend his life in this environment!

No, never.

Zhang Shusheng looked at her earnestly, with a thousand words in his eyes. But he didn't think about how his wife was also an ordinary farming woman, how to save him, how to save him.

This wife is his life-saving straw now, even if this straw can't bear his weight or even will be dragged into the water by him, the other party has to grab it.

Yin Xi remembered that she had such a scene before, when she was the prisoner of the stairs, and it didn't seem to be what she said to another person.

After a long time, this memory actually made her a little trance.

Zhang Shusheng called Huang Yinger diligently again, letting her get out of the trance.

There was a sneer on the corner of his mouth, thinking that if he had Huang Ying'er as a wife in his heart, after what happened, didn't he ask her if she was okay.

Yin Xi is often expressionless, even the slightest movement can't be seen in this dark light.

Zhang Shusheng kept begging her, at this time he had lost his former arrogance, maybe the blow was too big this time, or maybe he had to cower under power.

Yin Xi just said that he would give it a try himself, but he was not sure. Even so, it is enough for Zhang Shusheng to be happy.

Yin Xi didn't plan to stay here for long, and after seeing that he was a little happy, he was about to leave, but Zhang Shusheng suddenly asked about the people who came with her.

"Who is he?"

Zhang Shusheng's tone was a simple inquiry, with a hint of imperceptible intent, but it could be seen that the other party's extraordinary posture had confused him.

Perhaps, this is an opportunity that he thinks is for him.

Chu Ji, this is a thunderous name.

Three-year-old can write, four-year-old can martial arts, a genius-like child, this is like talking about other people's children.

The saint once saw it himself, but he refused to allow him a three-rank official position, he just wanted to gallop in the business world, but he had no ambitions in the court.

Even so, from time to time, he threw a stone at the literary side to stir up a monstrous wave.

Zhang Shusheng was excited, he didn't know how Huang Yinger found such a legendary person to help her, this was really a great opportunity for him.

Yin Xi had already guessed from his expression, and sure enough, Zhang Shusheng reached forward to catch her, "Ying'er, tell me quickly, how did you get him!" ”

Beg?

It's a fitting word.

Yin Xi ruthlessly broke his illusion, "The money bag stolen by the little fox is his." ”

Zhang Shusheng's emaciated face changed color, and his eyes widened in vain, "What? ”

How incredible.

It turned out to be like this.

The excitement just now suddenly turned into apprehension and an inexpressible feeling, and he sat down decadently.

Yin Xi watched expressionlessly as he performed immersed in his own world, from excitement to decadence, until she really couldn't stand the smell of the place and went out.

She is now the wife of this Zhang Shusheng, and she has to do everything that should be done so that people can't find fault with it.

Huang Ying'er can see what she does when she sacrifices to the underworld, and the contract she signs will also restrain her behavior, in order to prevent the guardians of this world from discovering her abnormality.

Yin Xi knew who the guardian was, and when she first signed a contract with the soul, she was killed by the elusive guardian because she didn't care.

I still have palpitations.

She didn't expect that Chu Ji, who had made Zhang Shusheng's heart ups and downs, hadn't left yet, and was talking to the jailer.

To be precise, the jailer was talking, and the other party just nodded from time to time. Yin Xi saw that as long as Chu Ji nodded, the jailer seemed to have received a big reward.

As soon as she came out, Chu Ji found her, left the jailer and walked over quickly, saying something.

It was nothing more than to reassure her and promise that Zhang Shusheng would come out in two days.

Yin Xi really didn't care much about them, but she still thanked them.
