Chapter 280: Finding Out the Truth
He Tan entered the Xuanling Temple relatively late, and he was younger than Liu Chengyan. According to the seniority, it should be called Liu Chengyan's senior brother. However, Liu Chengyan has now left the Dao Sect and is no longer a disciple of their Xuanling Temple, and he no longer has to use those false courtesies on him.
"What for?"
Liu Chengyan didn't care about his bad attitude, but said gently: "Who asked you to report the case?" ”
He Tan glared at him and snorted softly, "Who do you care?" If she shatters something in the temple, she will be punished. I don't know what King Huai said to Du Yin, and in the end, the case was not judged. What Qingtian lord, don't you listen to King Huai? ”
As he spoke, Hetan swept over King Huai, waved his sleeves, raised his hand, and said, "Go back!" ”
A group of Taoist priests returned to the Taoist temple unconvinced.
Liu Chengyan said impatiently: "It seems that the Taoist chief does not know about this matter. Counting the days, today is the day when His Majesty's elixir is released, and he really can't take care of it. ”
"Well, it's a tiger not a monkey dominant." King Huai nodded approvingly, "Your senior brother looks honest, but it can be seen that there is some bad water in his heart." ”
"Senior brother is loyal, even if Chang Le is framed, it can't be him." Liu Chengyan excused the Daoist of Jiutan lightly, "At that moment, I will go back to the Xuanling Temple and ask the Daoist to tell the case to be withdrawn, and the matter will be settled." ”
"That's it. Presumably, if the Taoist knew that his disciple had sent Chang Le to the government, he would be angry. He must have asked for this matter. King Huai nodded, "But you don't have to worry, let that girl stay in prison for a while longer, let her remember it for a long time, and don't want to look at everything." ”
Liu Chengyan was helpless: "I really shouldn't have told her about the Fengyu incense burner at that time." ”
King Huai rebuked: "You should, don't tell her anything." ”
As soon as the two of them discussed, Liu Chengyan went to the Xuanling Temple to find out if he was the Taoist chief to withdraw and tell him, and King Huai went to the prison to "chat" with Chang Le. They had only time to descend the high steps outside the yamen when they saw a familiar figure standing not far away.
Liu Chengyan looked at it for a while and said, "It's Miss Sun of the Yi family." ”
"Hmm." King Huai nodded, didn't plan to go over to say hello, and left leisurely, "It seems that I knew about Chang Le's arrest, so I came to see the excitement." ”
"Liu doesn't look like it."
Liu Chengyan paused as he spoke, and looked at Yi Zhao with a smile on his face, followed by a maid.
King Huai also paused, and could only wait for Yi Zhao to come to him.
"Yi Zhao has seen King Huai."
Yi Zhao respectfully saluted King Huai, completely ignoring King Huai's look of not wanting to say hello.
Alienation is alienation, when facing Yi Zhao, how to say that he is also an elder, King Huai still puts on a smiling appearance.
"No need to be polite."
Yi Zhao stood up straight, his slightly cold face was calm.
"Shicai, Yi Zhao accidentally overheard the conversation between King Huai and Gongzi Liu, and asked King Huai for forgiveness."
King Huai smiled even deeper, waiting for her next words.
Yi Zhao thought that directly letting the Daoist not pursue the matter was indeed the most direct solution. However, this will still make Miss Chang carry a trumped-up charge. Yi Zhao said it word by word.
King Huai said: "A trumped-up charge? You don't even know if she's committed a crime, and you believe she didn't do anything like that, based on what she just said? ”
Yi Zhao's face was unwavering, he smiled slightly, and responded indifferently: "Doesn't King Huai also believe that she is innocent?" Otherwise, why bother to intercede with Feng Duyin. ”
"This king just wants to delay time and let the Daoist come forward to calm down." King Huai explained very casually, "It doesn't matter what the facts are, as long as people come out." ”
Yi Zhao twisted his eyebrows and argued, "What about the person who originally smashed the Fengyu incense burner?" Just let him get away with it? Let Miss Chang suffer and be aggrieved? ”
"What if there wasn't that person?" King Huai said, "If this king finds him for three days and still returns in vain, then Ah Chang also stays in prison for three days, why bother?" ”
"This ......" Yi Zhao gritted his back molars, feeling that King Huai's idea was very unacceptable, and said firmly, "I believe that Miss Chang is also more willing to get out of this prison innocently." ”
King Huai was not annoyed, but just looked at Yi Zhao with a smile, feeling that she was young and high-spirited, and her eyes were like looking at a child. After a long time, the fan was turned and the fan surface was opened, which was not serious.
"Why don't we go and ask Ah Chang?"
Yi Zhao looked at each other, his two hands couldn't help but clench, and he didn't know when he breathed a sigh in his heart, and at this time, he also wanted to get Chang Le's words to confirm which of them was more suitable.
……
When Chang Le was sent to the prison, he was first taken to change into a prison uniform.
I don't know how many people have worn the prison clothes, but even if they have been washed, they are still dirty and smelly to the naked eye. When changing clothes, Chang Le also muttered, saying that he hoped that it would not be worn by death row inmates. The female jailer who changed her clothes said that the death row prisoners had already burned them, which was a reassuring pill for Chang Le.
There were very few prisoners in the prison of the Guidu Yamen, and most of them stayed here for a short time. Prisoners serving long sentences are transferred to large prisons outside the city, guarded by special soldiers. Therefore, the prison is not divided into male and female prisons, and it is divided wherever it goes.
The cell boss was just about to stuff Chang Le into a cell and share a room with several female prisoners when Shi Shu suddenly appeared.
"This hasn't been convicted yet, so let's find her a small cell to stay in first."
Shi Shu's face was very big, and the cell boss immediately changed Chang Le to a single room.
Chang Le thought that he could have the opportunity to have a heart-to-heart exchange with those female prisoners, and this time it was a waste, but he didn't have many regrets, and he was busy thanking Shi Shu.
"Thank you for taking care of this official."
"You're welcome." Shi Shu waited for Chang Le to enter the cell, patted the cell boss on the shoulder, gave him some broken silver, and said, "I'll talk to her for a while, and I'll find you to lock the door later." ”
The cell boss accepted the money and nodded very righteously: "Then brother, you talk slowly, just call if you have something." ”
Chang Le was very curious, and he didn't know what Shi Shu wanted to do. He entered the cell on his own and looked around his surroundings.
There is only one iron window in the small single room, and the sunlight beam shines in through the iron window, and the dust beats back and forth in the beam, and many Changle frowns and has a little itchy nose.
The prison was in the basement, and even in late summer, it was damp, but a little less stuffy and a little chilly. At this time, it is not easy to find a place that makes people chill.
"Did you break that phoenix jade incense burner?"
Shi Shu came to the stone bed and helped her tidy up the quilt.
Nothing to be courteous, either a traitor or a thief.
Chang Le looked at it indifferently, secretly guessing what this yacha wanted to do. She also dealt with him once, when she was in Sicai Gambling House, when he was a gangster, and he was quite annoying.
"I didn't break it." Chang Le replied to him casually.
"Didn't you fall asleep? How do you know you didn't break it? Shi Shu pulled over the bench next to the table in the cell, sat down very unceremoniously, and patted the other side of the table, "Sit down and rest for a while, it's not too tiring to just stand." ”
Chang Le pursed his lips and stepped forward, sat on the bench next to him, and said angrily: "Even if I fell asleep and broke the incense burner, when I woke up, those pieces were all in the box, and only I had a piece at hand." So who do you say helped me collect the fragments? Snail girl or you? ”
"You are talking in vain, and your words are unfounded." Shi Shu's tone was serious, and he suddenly smiled evilly, and said, "This matter, Master Yin has already asked people to investigate." I came to you because I wanted to ask for advice. ”
Chang Le raised his eyebrows: "Asking for advice? ”
"Yes." Shi Shu rubbed his hands, and with a turn of his wrist, a few dice were placed in the palm of his hand, "I want to ask you, how did you get out of the Sicai Gambling House at that time?" Even the Buddha can fool the past. ”
Chang Le's eyelids jumped, coughed, forcibly suppressed the embarrassment, and pretended to be profound: "This is a secret technique, you can't tell others." ”
"This ...... You're going to teach me a trick? ”
Shi Shu put the dice into an empty cup again, shook it, turned the cup over, buckled it on the table, and the action was smooth, at first glance, he was a veteran, an old gambler.
Chang Le didn't really want to discuss this with him.
"I think you can see what time the dice are through the dice cup, why don't you teach me this?" Shi Shu didn't relent, "If you teach me this, if you need help in the future, Shi will not hesitate." ”
"I really can't teach this, you'll die of this heart." Chang Le sighed and turned an empty cup.
"King Huai, Miss Chang is here."
Suddenly, the voice of the cell boss was heard outside. Shi Shu's eyes flashed, his hand touched the cup, and in the blink of an eye, the cup had been swung back into place, and the dice disappeared without a trace. By the time King Huai came in, Shi Shu had already stood up and flashed aside.
Chang Le was surprised by the swiftness of the stone tree, pointed twice at a loss, and asked with a sigh.
"The official is not an ordinary person, right?"
Shi Shu's eyes rolled, and just as he wanted to say something to Chang Le, King Huai had already walked in. I had to stand by as if nothing had happened, and salute solemnly.
"I've seen King Huai."
King Huai glanced at it and said, "It seems that it's not bad for you to stay in prison, and you will have someone to talk to as soon as you come in?" ”
"Who made me popular?" Chang Le smiled and boasted to himself, and when he saw that he was still followed by Yi Zhao and Liu Chengyan, he immediately ran forward excitedly, "Lord Zhai!" Yi Zhao! You're here too, huh? ”
Liu Chengyan just smiled and said nothing.
Yi Zhao was a little stunned for a moment when he heard Chang Le call her name, and then he didn't feel anything wrong with it, he just nodded.
"I heard that you committed a crime, so I came here to take a look."
"Your expression is the same as coming to me." Chang Le joked that Yi Zhao was too serious, "However, I don't know how long I'm going to stay here, if you look for me, you can only come here." ”
"You're still enjoying it, and you're not worried about your situation at all?" Huai Wang Road.
