Chapter IV: Testimony
Yun Chu clenched the food box in his hand, wiped away the tears from the corners of his eyes, and walked away step by step.
Mrs. Wen Yuanbo couldn't help but look back.
The eyes are facing each other.
Mrs. Wen Yuanbo burst into tears.
She took two steps and sat down on the bed, completely avoiding Yun Chu's gaze.
Yun Chu didn't dare to turn around, so naturally he couldn't see his mother again, so he could only leave without looking back.
Caidie's nose was sour, she wanted the girl to fly away, but she didn't expect the girl to chase her to Kyoto.
Uncle Wenyuan didn't know which evil star he provoked, and the uncle was loyal to the imperial court, and he spilled his blood for the imperial court, and was suspected of collaborating with the enemy and betraying the country.
also received a letter from the uncle's study, the uncle is an upright person, how can he be wronged like this, he can't be forced to ask, and he actually killed Mingzhi headlong.
Now that the girls have been found in the prison of the Criminal Department, they dare not say a word.
Mrs. Wen Yuanbo cried into tears, she had always wanted to see her daughter, but now that she saw it, she had a heartfelt matter, but it was also heavier.
She knew that she would never listen to her and her uncle's words and hide far away, and live incognito for the rest of her life.
But what can she do with a girl's family
After getting out of the prison of the Criminal Department, Yun Chu also glanced back.
She didn't have much money on her, and it cost twenty-five taels to go to the prison of the Criminal Department, and the next time she spent more and not less.
She had no money to work with.
She thought of the 10,000 taels of silver tickets.
Whether it's finding someone or surviving, she needs money.
She had to borrow it first and then return it.
Although she didn't dare to ask who the Hou Ye was when she returned the money on the street that day, there were not many Hou Ye in Kyoto, and she could always inquire.
Hold the food box tightly and return to the inn at the beginning of the day.
The Secret Guard, two yacha followed.
Mr. Qian has been locked up in the prison of the Criminal Department for more than half a month, and there has been no progress in the case.
That Lord Qian's mouth was also very tight, and he couldn't ask anything no matter how he interrogated him.
Now there is actually a prison visitor, I don't know who dares to deliver food to Lord Qian at this juncture.
Shangshu of the Criminal Department felt that this was a breakthrough, so he sent two powerful officials to follow up and find out who was in the house to deliver the food.
Yacha followed all the way and followed Yun Chu to an inn.
You look at me, I look at you, and my brows are twisted.
They were discovered or discovered
The little guy doesn't go back to the inn, which is obviously a problem.
Yun Chu went upstairs, and the innkeeper saw the yamen coming, and his frightened heart was beating wildly.
In these years, except for beggars, inns are not welcome, and they are just yacha.
When the yacha came to the door, it was either an accident or something to do, which would affect the inn's business.
The shopkeeper didn't welcome it in his heart, and he greeted him with a smile on his face, "The two officials came to the small inn to work or live in the hotel."
The yacha looked at the steps and said, "When did the little guy who just went upstairs come?"
The shopkeeper was stunned, he was just busy settling accounts, and he didn't pay attention to any little guy going upstairs.
But he didn't pay attention, the young man paid attention, and said busily, "That guest officer is the inn where he stayed three days ago, and he was dressed as a child of a family before, and I don't know why he changed his dress as a small servant today." ”
That boy looks mild-tempered, don't be a vicious person.
You look at me again, I look at you.
It seems that the little guy didn't find them and hid in the inn, this is where he stayed.
It was originally a child of a family dressed up, but now it has been changed to a small house, there must be a problem.
The two yamen discussed, one stayed to watch Yun Chu, and the other went back to the yamen to report.
The clues that were finally there, they didn't dare to act rashly, in case they startled the snake and delayed Lord Shangshu's investigation of the case, they couldn't afford it.
The yacha rushed back to the yamen and received a reply that he had been arrested.
By the time the yacha arrived at the inn, the other yacha had disappeared.
The innkeeper told him that Yun Chu had gone downstairs, and the yacha followed him.
As for where he went, it was a private matter for the guests, and the inn had no right to ask.
Yacha's skull hurts.
Kyoto is so big, where can they find someone?
Besides, Yun Chu, went back to the inn to drink a cup of tea, took the silver ticket and went downstairs.
Yacha hid in the shadows and watched Yun Chu go from shop to shop and buy two thousand taels.
Carrying the food box, Yun Chu went to the door, but she was a small servant, even if she was carrying valuable things in her hands, people didn't see her.
After eating two slaps in a row, Yun Chu also walked a lot and returned to the inn exhausted.
As soon as I walked in, I was blocked by the official of the Criminal Department.
Even people and belongings were taken to the criminal department.
At this time, Yun Chu knew that she was beaten by the Criminal Department as a member of the same party as Lord Qian in order to see her mother and brothers.
She only thought about the benefits of borrowing money from prison visits, but she didn't think about the disadvantages of borrowing.
Kneeling on the cold ground in the lobby of the Criminal Department, Shangshu of the Criminal Department sat on a chair, looking at the things on the table, his brows furrowed.
Yun Chu went to ask to see anyone, and the following yacha made a 1510 confession, these are all bribes that were not sent.
Shangshu of the Criminal Department was shocked, startling Yun Chu, only to hear the serious voice of Shangshu of the Criminal Department, "What is the relationship between you and Lord Qian?"
Yunchu was bitter from the bottom of his heart.
Today is the first time she has met Master Qian.
She doesn't even know who they are, so what does it matter.
However, Yun Chu was smart and had already thought of a reason for prevarication, she said, "I just take people's money and do things for others, and I have nothing to do with Lord Qian." ”
"It's okay," Shangshu of the Criminal Department smiled.
"It's okay, you bring food to people"
Yun Chu's face did not change, "Someone asked me to give it to Lord Qian." ”
"Who entrusted you?" asked the criminal department again.
"I don't know, he only gave me a portrait of Lord Qian, and asked me to send him a few meals to honor the feelings of the deceased."
Yun Chu looked at the eyes of Shangshu of the Criminal Department and said, although she lied, she was not weak-hearted.
Because she really doesn't know Master Qian.
Deliver him meals just because his cell is across from her mother, that's all.
Shangshu of the Criminal Department really has never seen anyone who dares to look into his eyes and speak, either he is bold, or he is telling the truth.
"The portrait is here," Shangshu of the Criminal Department asked.
Yun Chu nodded, "The portrait is in the inn." ”
Yun Chu felt that prevarication was not a problem, but she didn't expect her to be arrested, and even the things she had put in the inn were brought to the Criminal Department.
There was no portrait of her in the baggage.
Seeing that the lie was about to be exposed, Yun Chu didn't dare to believe it, "Isn't the portrait in the baggage?"
She got up and went to rummage through her baggage, but she didn't find it.
Yun Chu was glad that there was only one set of men's clothes in the baggage, no women's clothes, otherwise he would have exposed his daughter if he was not suspected of having special habits.
concealing her daughter's disguise as a man to deliver food to Lord Qian is a more serious problem.
Yun Chu flipped through it twice and said, "Impossible, I went out today and looked at the portrait." ”
She looked at the yacha.
Yacha was a little unhappy, "Everything is here." ”
"It may have fallen in the inn, I'll go back and get it," Yun Chu said.
The Shangshu of the Criminal Department asked the Yacha to go back to look for it, and Yun Chu said, "I still have something to hide in the inn, in case that room is occupied by other guests, and the thing is lost." ”
The Shangshu of the Criminal Department frowned, but he also asked the yacha to send her back.
It was only Yun Chu who went back, and the baggage and everything remained in the Criminal Department.
There are eight thousand taels of silver in the baggage, and there is also a yacha, so I am not afraid that she will run away.
Poor inn, the front foot sent the yacha away, and before an hour, the man returned.
And this time it was four yacha who came back.
Yun Chu asked the yacha to guard outside the door, "I want to make it convenient, and the two big brothers will wait outside the door for a while." ”
Yacha looked at her with a wary expression.
I suspect that her convenience is fake, and her escape is real.
Yun Chu looked helpless, "I won't run away." ”
"I didn't do anything bad, why should I run away"
The yacha waved his hand and said to the other two yacha, "You two go to the backyard to guard, and the inn guys, give me a little brightness in my eyes." ”
After that, he said to Yun Chu, "If you dare to escape, you will be punished with the same crime as Lord Qian." ”
Yun Chu nodded in understanding.
She didn't want to run away.
After entering the house, Yun Chu closed the door.
She quickly took out the pen, ink, paper and inkstone in the cabinet, only glad that she had called a first-class private room, which had pen and ink, and there was no need to ask the young man to take it.
Otherwise, the lie would not have been hidden.
Yun Chu saw the appearance of Lord Qian in the prison, and he dipped his pen in ink, and soon drew a simple portrait of Lord Qian.
She returned the inkstone to its place, took the portrait to the back of the screen, dried it, folded it, and placed it under the bed.
Yun Chu's movements were smooth, and when he was done, he went to open the door.
Yun Chu rummaged, and then found the portrait under the futon.
Yacha took a look, and it was really a good portrait of Lord Qian.
The innkeeper and the lad were in the house.
Seeing this scene, the young man's eyes were round, and he glanced at the shopkeeper, ready to speak, but the shopkeeper shook his head at him, telling him not to talk too much and cause trouble for the inn.
It's best not to deal with the yamen.
Let a sleeping dog lie.
The young man swallowed his words.
After the guests left, he changed all the bedding, and did not find a portrait under the mattress, but now there is a problem.
It's just that the shopkeeper didn't let him say anything, and he didn't dare to say a word about borrowing his three tiger guts.
The yacha did not suspect anything, and returned to the yamen with the portrait and Yun Chu.
Before leaving, Yun Chu said to the innkeeper, "Leave me a room." ”
She stayed for three days, only paid the deposit, and still hasn't paid for the room.
It's just that she was taken away by the official of the Criminal Department, and the innkeeper didn't dare to ask for room fees.
For Yun Chu to come back to live, the innkeeper is very happy.
can be put back, which means that Yun Chu is fine.
An unproblematic guest, the inn is naturally very welcome.
After returning to the Criminal Department, the Yacha handed over the portrait to the Shangshu of the Criminal Department.
The Shangshu of the Criminal Department couldn't see anything wrong from the portrait, not to mention it, how could the Shangshu of the Criminal Department think that this portrait was painted by Yun Chu temporarily
It's not that the painting skills are superb, how can you paint the portrait in such a short time
Shangshu of the Criminal Department looked at Yun Chu, and Yun Chu said, "Lord Shangshu, don't look at me like that, I really don't know any Lord Qian, and when I brought him food, I misremembered him as Lord Li." ”
The prison guards of the Criminal Department can testify to this.
I said it casually before, but now it is a personal witness for Yun Chu.
Yun Chu just accepted money from people and delivered food for people, and the Shangshu of the Criminal Department had no conclusive evidence to suspect that she had a problem, so he could only release her.
Yun Chu was not afraid of death, and said, "Can I still deliver food to people?"
The officials of the Criminal Department all felt that Yun Chu was beaten.
It's all going to happen, and she has to continue to send it, she's so bold.
However, it also shows that people are reliable.
The Shangshu of the Criminal Department waved his hand and said, "You can go." ”
