"It's ugly to cry, like a rabbit." Leng Nanxian teased him with his uniform tone.

An Sheng suddenly burst into tears and laughed.

"That's right, what's there to cry about? I'd rather laugh and pull my mouth than cry and have red eyes. ”

"It's not like it's all rabbits?" Qianzhou asked suspiciously.

This time, even the Dragon Boat Festival couldn't help laughing.

Leng Nanxian took out a handkerchief from his arms and handed it to her: "Quickly wipe your nose, this smile is all bubbles." ”

An Sheng took it in his hand embarrassedly, smiled and snorted aggrievedly: "I know that those people are colluding with Xue Zhao to cheat money, but I can't do anything about it, and I watched them run away." ”

Leng Nanxian smiled comfortingly: "It's just a little silver tael, if you lose it, you lose it, as long as the person is still there, it's lucky." ”

As soon as he said this, An Sheng cried more and more: "But my father has an accident, Master, I can't do anything." ”

"Ansheng ......" Leng Nanxian said gloomily.

"Don't persuade me, Master." An Sheng interrupted his unspoken words: "I know it myself, I just want to do my part." My father's hobby is not easy to be lost and regained, and before I can feel happiness, I watch it disappear.

Actually, last night, I managed to go to Dongcheng Cangli, you know? They all secretly said that the fire was deliberately planted and that my father was just a scapegoat.

But they didn't want to cause trouble, so they said that if the Criminal Department and Dali Temple asked, they would say that it was Tianhuo. Now that there is an autumn rain, all traces are gone, even if the truth is true, there is no possibility of overturning the case. ”

Leng Nanxian thought for a moment and asked out loud, "What did Yu Jingyun say?" ”

An Sheng raised his head suddenly: "You, how do you know?" ”

Qianzhou said angrily: "We looked for you for most of the night last night, how do you know?" ”

Leng Nanxian scolded lightly: "Qianzhou, many mouths." ”

An Sheng glanced at Leng Nanxian gratefully: "Yu Shizi said that this case is extraordinary, let me not be overweight and investigate without authorization." I insisted on looking for clues, but he knocked me out and brought me back. ”

Qianzhou snorted disdainfully: "I always thought he was an iron-clad man." I didn't expect to be so timid and afraid! ”

Leng Nanxian shook his head: "Yu Jingyun is just for the sake of his life." ”

"For my good?"

Leng Nanxian nodded: "Listen to what you say, this case may not be as simple as it seems, but all such big and important cases are organized and premeditated behind them, inextricably linked, and involve a wide range of people."

It's like a fraud case a few years ago, including a trivial abandoned baby case that caused a sensation in Chang'an more than ten years ago, and in the end, it was shocking, and the court had to stop it.

During the investigation of the case, there were many people who were killed and killed. Yu Jingyun may have also investigated something, and felt that it would be dangerous for you to investigate recklessly, so he dissuaded you like this. ”

"Although my father is not a good official for the country and the people, he has always done his duty and does not collude with those corrupt officials. It is difficult not to seek development, but to seek peace, and to suffer from such an unwarranted disaster. An Sheng said gloomily.

"And what are you going to do now?" Leng Nanxian asked.

An Sheng shook his head: "I don't know, now I am also powerless." And what if I could prove that the fire was deliberate? The same still can't offset my father's sins. My only luxury now is to see my father and see what I, as a daughter, can do for him, and I am already content. ”

"An Sheng, there is nothing you can do about this matter if you are in a hurry now. Fortunately, the charges have not yet been confirmed, and the court has not yet condemned your father's capital crime, so we still have time, so we don't have to be discouraged. You must know that your father is still in prison, waiting for you to save him, and you are his only hope. ”

An Sheng nodded helplessly, sniffed, and his eyes were red: "Thank you, Master." I know. ”

Leng Nanxian stretched out his hand at her: "Follow me." ”

"Where to go?"

"Take you to eat."

An Sheng shook his head: "I can't eat it." ”

"If you can't eat it, you have to eat it." Leng Nanxian pursed his lips: "If you don't take care of yourself, how can you save your father?" ”

An Sheng raised his face, looked at Leng Nanxian in a daze for a long time, then gritted his teeth and stood up, and followed Leng Nanxian into the carriage.

It's already past dinner, and the restaurant is closed.

Leng Nanxian took her to the teahouse, ordered a few snacks, asked for a pot of tea, didn't speak, and stayed with her quietly.

An Sheng barely stuffed two mouthfuls of food, and he couldn't eat anymore.

Leng Nanxian pointed to the couch next to him: "I need to go out for a while." You rest first, don't run around when you wake up, and Master will take you to meet someone at night. ”

An Sheng was dizzy from crying and exhausted. Lie down obediently.

With Leng Nanxian by his side, An Sheng suddenly felt that an impetuous and unsettled heart had something to rely on, and gradually calmed down.

Because I was tired from crying, I really fell asleep dizzy.

When I woke up, it was already dark outside. Leng Nanxian stayed on the chair next to her, supporting her forehead with her hands and closing her eyes to recuperate. Seeing her wake up, he smiled at her: "Awake? ”

An Sheng struggled to open his eyes, and his eyelids were heavy, which should be swollen.

Leng Nanxian raised his hand and poured her a cup of tea, not cold or hot, just right: "Let's leave after drinking tea." ”

An Sheng took the tea and drank it all.

"Didn't Master go out?"

"It's all done, and then I'll be back."

Leng Nanxian directly threw An Sheng a burden, and said in a low voice: "Change into the clothes here, and I'll take you to meet someone." ”

"To whom are you going?" An Sheng asked curiously.

"You'll know when you get there."

An Sheng opened his baggage, took advantage of the light outside the window, and looked closely, but inside was a soap-colored prison guard's clothes.

Her breathing suddenly became short, and she stammered when she spoke: "This, this is to go to see my father?" ”

Leng Nanxian nodded: "I have already taken care of everything, and after a while, Dali Temple and the Criminal Department need to interrogate your father, so you will pretend to be a prison official and escort your father to the interrogation room."

I'll find a way to make it a while before you can meet your father and have a few words. But you have to remember, to make a long story short, don't show your feet. When you hear someone coughing lightly, immediately bow your head and quit, don't be nostalgic. ”

An Sheng nodded, his heart was so excited that he secretly thought about what he was going to say and how to do it when he saw his father for a while, and after thinking for a while, he raised his head in shock.

"Such a critical case, the guards are so strict, Master, how did you clear it?"

Leng Nanxian said indifferently: "The cell head is my patient. ”

Leng Nanxian's sentence is obviously perfunctory. After all, this is not an ordinary prison visit, something that can be done with a few taels of silver in a word. One is to take risks, no one will dare to do it without support, and the second is how to control the time difference in between? This is not an understatement, it needs to be sufficiently powerful.

An Sheng felt that his master should not be an ordinary person.

However, she didn't have the heart to look into it. Because, no matter who Leng Nanxian is, that is her closest master to Xia Ansheng.

Leng Nanxian went out first and got into the carriage, An Sheng changed his clothes, coiled his hair, and followed.

The carriage stopped in an alley near Dali Temple, and Leng Nanxian stepped out of the carriage, and someone stepped forward to answer it.

Because the night in the alley was too dark, An Sheng couldn't see the person's appearance clearly, only heard him speak respectfully to Leng Nanxian, bowed his head again and again, and then took An Sheng directly into Dali Temple from the corner gate.

Along the way, carefully tell An Sheng the rules in it, let her bow her head all the way and speak carefully, and be careful not to show her feet.

An Sheng was full of gratitude, and only responded resignedly.

Turning and crutching, An Sheng kept his head down all the way, and he didn't know how many miles he had walked, and when he heard the sound of the iron door "clanging", as well as the friction sound of the chains, he understood that the place where important prisoners were held in Dali Temple had arrived.

The man in front of the head took out a token from his arms and handed it to the person guarding the door: "By the boss's command, come and interrogate the criminal Xia Yunhai." ”

The jailer had already received the notice in advance, and waved his hand behind him: "Take the prisoner Xia Yunhai." ”

An Sheng's heart suddenly began to beat violently, and he had never been so eager to see his relatives. The door of the cell was brightly lit, and the torch lanterns illuminated her surroundings as bright as day, and she did not dare to look up, her head hooked in front of her chest, her hands clenched into fists, and she was already oozing sweat.

Inside the cell, the sound of chains was heard, and someone dragged handcuffs and shackles out of the long corridor. An Sheng seemed to be able to feel the pain of the cold anklet rubbing against the flesh, and he really felt it.

"For such an important prisoner, why are only the two of you coming to escort him?" The jailer asked, puzzled.

The person who brought An Sheng in said nonchalantly: "There are not many people, just use it, otherwise a bunch of straw bales coming over is just a bluff." Besides, along the road, there are heavy guards, just him, do you think he can run, or is someone in charge? ”

The jailer nodded: "That's right, he can't fly away even if he puts on a wing." ”

The person behind pushed Xia Yunhai: "Let's go, what are you rubbing!" After speaking, he also made up for it.

Xia Yunhai stumbled and threw himself out of the door.

An Sheng involuntarily stretched out his hand and hugged him.

"Bet on!" The man commanded Ansheng.

An Sheng was also alert in an instant, holding Xia Yuanwai's arm with a backhand, which turned into an escort posture.

The man threw his hand at the jailer: "Let's go, I'll send it back after the trial is over." ”

The door slammed shut behind him.

"Let's go!" The man yelled at Xia Yuanwai.

An Sheng took advantage of this effort to look his father up and down, although his clothes were dirty and his hair was messy, he didn't seem to have suffered much from flesh and skin, and he felt a little relieved in his heart.

Xia Yuanwai didn't recognize the escort as his daughter at this time, but just followed the path pointed out and walked forward with his head down.
