Chapter 50: The Merciful Killer
After a pause in the chopsticks, and continued to pick up the dishes as if nothing had happened, Yin Ge stopped: "What else?" ”
"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince was cautious and didn't say much, thinking that he wanted to see the slave family's ability." Sitting down next to him, Feng Yue looked at him: "But this news is useful, the slave family has always been unable to understand one thing, with this news, it can be explained." ”
Yin Ge stopped eating, and his eyes motioned for her to continue.
"It stands to reason that the general's house in the barracks has always been cold, even if he accepts some bribes and the like, it is not enough for Zhao Lin to spend money. However, Master Zhao returned to the building in his dream of many rewards, and he also ransomed him at a high price. Mother Jin knocked him and asked for two hundred taels of gold, but he even took out his hand and gave him a gold ingot, not a silver ticket. ”
Fingers tapped lightly on the table, Feng Yue's eyes sparkled: "Such heroism, where does the money come from?" But if it is said that the relationship between the Zhao family and the Sansi Mansion is good, then it is easy to think. ”
In the land of gold and silver in the Sansi Mansion, although the mountains and rivers are clear on the surface, there are few people who do not steal oil. Seeing that Zhu Laicai has become a big fat man, there is naturally a lot of oil and water in the Sansi Mansion.
After finishing the meal, Yin Gezhi put down the dishes and chopsticks, and did not say anything about her words, but said slowly: "Since you are here, it is better to go with me to the prison of the Tingwei Mansion." ”
The prison of the Tingwei Mansion? Zhu Laicai? Fengyue shook the veil and smiled: "Okay." ”
Glancing at her, his gaze fell on her red gauze robe, and Yin Gezhi frowned.
Half an hour later, Feng Yue, who was wearing a good family woman's clothes, followed Prince Yin to the Tingwei Yamen together.
An Shichong waited at the door, and when he saw them coming, he saluted: "Master." ”
"Got the morning class?" Yin Ge asked.
Fengyue thought, such a master is really unkind, and as soon as he comes, he asks people for their homework.
But An Shichong was not annoyed at all, but said very happily: "I practiced, according to what the master taught, I benefited a lot." ”
"Very good." With a slight bow, Yin Gezhi raised his feet and walked into the yamen, and by the way, he turned his head and glared at Feng Yue, who was still in a daze.
Fengyue came back to her senses and immediately followed with her skirt.
"The prince is here?" Someone in the yamen greeted them and saluted: "If the lord is not here today, I will tell the little one to greet you." ”
"Don't bother, let's take a look at the people." An Shichong said: "Zhu Laicai from the Third Envoy's Mansion has already been handed over, right?" ”
"Yes, it's in prison, everyone come with the little ones." Yacha bowed and said: "As soon as the lord took the case, the judiciary interrogated it overnight, and the case was decided early this morning, and the prisoner was put on death row. ”
Yin Gezhi was very pleased: "It really deserves to be the Tingwei Mansion." ”
An Shichong said with a smile: "Lord Tingwei is busy with official business, and when he encounters this kind of case with conclusive evidence, he will naturally not delay it for too long, and Master can rest assured." ”
Feng Yue followed behind, thinking that your master would not rest assured, he must have prepared a knife mountain oil pot to give to those who dare to harm him, and it will definitely not be as simple as letting him be beheaded.
In the dimly lit cell, Zhu Laicai walked around irritablely, and the chains were rattled.
He didn't understand why he was here, he was the account office of the Sansi Mansion! There are adults covered, and what they do is what adults want to do, it stands to reason that even if he is incused, how can the testimony of a mere prostitute convict him? Even if there is Yin Gezhi's support...... What is Yin Gezhi? It's just a proton, and it can still twist the thighs of the three envoys?
The adults said they would save him, but he waited, but he didn't wait for his release, but waited to be locked up on death row?
What's going on out there?
"Wow-" The iron chain on the wooden fence was opened, Zhu Laicai turned back in horror, and saw the Fengyue girl who dreamed of returning to the building coming in with a lamp in her hand and smiling at him: "My lord." ”
His pupils shrank, Zhu Laicai was so frightened that he retreated again and again, leaned against the wall and said, "You...... Are you a human or a ghost? ”
"My lord is joking, the slave family has not done anything wrong, and he has not been convicted, how can he become a ghost?" Stepping into the cell, Feng Yue said, "Didn't I hear that the adults were going to be beheaded, so come and see?" I've taken your money, and I'm going to give you a ride. ”
Beheading? Zhu Laicai glared, and the horizontal flesh on his face twitched: "Impossible, how could I be beheaded!" ”
Looking at him inexplicably, Fengyue pointed to the wooden sign hanging outside the wooden fence, on which was a blood-red word "death".
"Don't you know yet? The envoy of the three divisions has been sick recently, and I heard that he is raising it at home and does not see any guests. Even Lord Tingwei sent someone to collect evidence, and he said that your poisoning has nothing to do with the Sansi Mansion, and it is up to Lord Tingwei to deal with it. So early this morning, you were sentenced to be executed, and you were executed half a month later, and the three divisions had no objection. ”
How so? Zhu Laicai shook his head: "You must be lying to me!" ”
"What's the benefit of the slave deceiving you?" Pouting, Fengyue put down the food box in his hand: "The slave family came to see you and informed you of the situation outside, if you don't like to listen, then the slave family will leave." ”
With that, he turned around and walked out.
The darkness returned to the surroundings, and Zhu Laicai sat down by the wall, still muttering in his mouth: "Impossible, impossible......"
But if you think about it, if you really want to save him, how can he still stay here? The attempted murder of the proton is just that, the proton has no power and no power, who will help him? Even if the prince wants to go against the adult, as long as he bites to death and refuses to admit it, there should be a glimmer of life.
However, he had already been sentenced to death.
Recalling the style of his own adult, Zhu Laicai finally had to face a fact - he may have been abandoned by his own adult, why? If he is so faithful, can it be that because he was sinned, the adults didn't even bother to save him?
It is easy for people to be cranky in the dark environment, and the more they think about it, the worse it gets, Yin Gezhi just watched him in the dark, watching him struggle and suffer, and finally let out a roar of collapse: "Ah-"
It's almost time, flicking his sleeves, Yin Gezhi turned his head to An Shichong next to him and said: "You go to this yamen and walk around, let people take the way, Hou Ye said, Lord Tingwei treats you like his own child, you should also familiarize yourself with this place, and bring gifts to the door in the future, so please be safe." ”
It makes sense, An Shichong nodded, and said, "Then the master will wait at the side door, and the apprentice will go back with you." ”
"Okay."
The upright young man walked without hesitation, and sighed when he saw Fengyue: "It's too honest, I don't even ask why you don't leave." ”
Glancing at her, Yin Gezhi reached out and pinched her squirming mouth, signaling her to be quiet, and then went to the cell.
"This official." Feng Yue smiled and pulled the jailer's sleeve: "The slave family also brought you some snacks, that person's time is short, and I want to ask the official to take care of it more." ”
As he spoke, he dragged the people out for a snack.
The cell was quiet, and Yin Gezhi walked up to Zhu Laicai silently, like a ghost who eats people in the middle of the night, his face is in the shadows, and only a pair of eyes are slightly shining.
Zhu Laicai looked up dejectedly, and when he saw his face, he immediately screamed.
However, there are so many people on death row who shout every day that if he breaks his throat, no one will come outside.
"Why are you so impulsive?" Looking at him condescendingly, Yin Ge stopped: "It's just that you met me in the dream back to the building, and you knew that I ordered Fengyue's platform, so you were eager to poison me?" ”
Scared to the extreme, but fearless, Zhu Laicai took a few breaths, and said angrily: "I'm not in a hurry to poison you, do I still let you go?" Your mansion doesn't get into the water, so it's naturally easy to kill you in the dream back building. ”
"Makes sense." Bowing slightly, Yin Ge stopped: "But you failed, and I didn't die, you want to die, do you know why?" ”
What else? Zhu Laicai sneered: "His Royal Highness asked the prince for help, and the prince wants the slave to die, and the slave can only die." ”
"That's not right." Yin Gezhi shook his head: "It's not the prince who wants you to die, after all, I'm fine, and I've recovered in less than two days." ”
Who else could it be if it wasn't the prince? Zhu Laicai looked up at him, his eyes full of confusion.
Bending down slightly, Yin Gezhi's eyes were deep, staring at him word by word and said: "There are a lot of things in your hands, once they are leaked, your family may not be able to protect them, or even lose their lives." You say, with the cautious nature of your family, with such a good opportunity, he will not take advantage of the situation to kill you? ”
His heart was cold, and Zhu Laicai was dumbfounded.
He had already thought of this possibility just now, but when these words came out of the mouths of others, he still felt cold.
After so many years of loyalty, how many accounts he secretly helped the adults smooth out, and how many secrets he hidden, he didn't even dare to say it in his dreams. Now, because he knows too much, he wants to kill him?
"Your Highness is here, is it a stone?" After figuring out the joints, Zhu Laicai leaned against the wall and smiled bitterly, his eyes slightly bloodshot.
"Why should I fall into the well?" There was suddenly more compassion in his eyes, and Yin Gezhi's tone softened, like a warm breeze, which suddenly blew away the low atmosphere in the cell: "It is the people behind you who want to harm me, you are just doing things for others and sending people to death." ”
"It's just that I have some sympathy for you, my son is only five months old, and he has to lose his father."
With a tense heart, Zhu Laicai looked up at him in a panic: "Your Highness? ”
"Don't be nervous, I'm just sorry for you." Yin Gezhi said gently: "Your son is so cute, wearing red tiger head shoes, carrying the back of the nurse, he can't even speak, and he hasn't opened his mouth to call you dad." ”
Trembling all over, Zhu Laicai stared at him with wide eyes: "Your Highness, even if the slave is guilty, it will not cause trouble to his family!" ”
"What are you panicking about?" Yin Ge stopped: "Am I the kind of person who is ruthless? ”
Isn't it? Zhu Laicai gritted his teeth, knelt on the ground, and kowtowed to him twice: "If Your Highness has a place where you need slaves, although you say bluntly, don't implicate the heirs of slaves!" ”
"Although I have no intention of harming your heirs." Standing up straight, Yin Gezhi said solemnly: "But since the adults want to help me, then it is disrespectful." ”
In the dim cell, the iron chains rattled because of the trembling of people, and Prince Yin looked at the person in front of him with half-lowered eyes, his eyes full of pity.
