Chapter 31

In the past, if other prisoners were sentenced, there would be applause outside the yamen, but this time Hongdou was sentenced to an autumn decision, and the people watching outside the yamen were silent.

She didn't wear prison clothes, her body was spotless, and she dressed herself exquisitely, Yun Shengshi found out that Hongdou was not wearing those dusty clothes in the stage, but the crimson clothes of extremely ordinary women from good families, and even the hair bun was the style of ordinary women.

Hongdou stood behind the two catchers, raised her head and looked at the onlookers outside, there were many people she had helped. There is a helpless little beggar on the street, if she can't get food every day, she will go to her red bean table to eat, and take some with her by the way. There is a poor scholar who has no money to treat his old mother's illness, and when Hongdou heard about it, he called the little maid to bring it over, if he soars brightly, don't forget the girl he once made an oath. There is also a little brother who gets up early and sells buns at the stall just to save some bride price money to marry his childhood sweetheart, and Hongdou visits every day to buy his buns.

One by one, the people remember.

Hongdou rushed outside, smiled shallowly, and then bent over, fortunately, what she did in the past was not in vain, at least when she was sentenced, they didn't applaud.

The unclothed in the crowd, unconsciously, burst into tears.

Zhang Jiusheng turned around, glanced at the red beans that slowly disappeared at the door of the lobby, and then at the shocking wood on the table, in the end, he still didn't make a sound, in the end, he couldn't bear it.

Hearing the verdict, Wei Man, who had been in the back hall, seemed to have lost his strength all his body, and sat down with his ass, Zhang Tong watched from the side, and he didn't know what words of comfort to say, so he only patted him on the shoulder and said, "Mourn." ”

"It shouldn't." Wei Man muttered.

Zhang Tong turned around and wanted to leave, but he didn't hear clearly, and turned around a little surprised: "What? ”

"It shouldn't be like this, since she already has a complete plan, why should I cooperate with her?" Wei Man sat in his chair and only asked in a low voice.

Before Zhang Tong could speak, he saw Zhang Jiusheng walk in from outside the hall, and replied as he walked: "That's because she never does something she is not sure about, since she wants to do it, she needs to have one more back road, and you have become the second way in her plan." Originally, the dead person should indeed be Wuyi, I told you, Xuedian and Wuyi are sisters, and Xuedian has deep roots in love with you, but she has little time, so she begged Wuyi to take care of you instead of herself, and she died for Wuyi, which not only fulfilled the sisterhood, but also fulfilled her lifelong vow with you, and also returned the grace of Hongdou's acquaintance. ”

Wei Man was stunned, and he didn't know if he had listened to Zhang Jiusheng's words, but he just shook his head, not believing, not believing, or not believing.

"Do you remember, why did Xuedian want you to redeem Wuyi first?"

Wei Man thought about it, his lips began to tremble unconsciously, his face suddenly turned pale, his heart ached, he clutched his chest tightly with one hand, as if he was having trouble breathing, and tears rolled down in big pieces: "That's it, that's it, I pride myself on being smart, but I was deceived by her, Xuedian, my Xuedian ......"

Yun Sheng followed behind, she looked at Wei Man almost in pain and couldn't breathe, and she couldn't help but feel angry, stretched out a hand and grabbed the corner of Zhang Jiusheng's clothes, Zhang Jiusheng felt something strange behind him, turned around and saw Yun Sheng's face pale, and couldn't help but worry: "What's wrong?" Feeling sick? ”

Yun Sheng shook his head, only hung his head, and his voice came in a low voice: "It's nothing, I miss my father." ”

Zhang Jiusheng listened, his heart sank, he stretched out his hand to pat Yun Sheng's back, and said softly: "Isn't this still me?" No matter how bad it is, my father is your father, my mother is your mother, and my eldest brother, they are all your relatives, if you ......" Zhang Jiusheng said as he spoke, not knowing what he thought, the corners of his mouth rose slightly, he glanced down at the back of Yun Sheng's head, reached out and stroked it gently, and said something "better" in a voice that can almost be heard by mosquitoes.

"Hmm." Yun Sheng didn't pay attention to listening, he only responded in a low voice, but in fact, his heart was not so uncomfortable, yes, what else was there to be afraid of those who crawled back from the ghost gate?

Later, Zhang Jiusheng sent two catchers to send Wei Man back, after Wei Man returned home, it is said that he locked himself in the house for three days and three nights and did not go out, and when he came out, the whole person changed, not only was he angry and decided to go to Beijing to catch the exam, but he didn't even go to a place like Hongdoutai for fireworks. Master Wei finally relented, as long as Wei Man won the list, his marriage would be decided by him from now on, and Master Wei would never interfere, but this promise came a little late for Wei Man.

Xuedian's body was handed over to Zhang Tong to be stitched completely, accompanied by Zhang Jiusheng, and sent to the Wei family's old mansion together.

Finally able to see a complete snow lake, Yun Sheng sighed a little, such a good woman, but why is she so thin? God is not fair.

But Zhang Jiusheng didn't think so, and nodded at Yun Sheng's forehead: "Zhang Tong said, her work and rest are disordered, and she can't help drinking and meat, which is a problem that has accumulated over the years, and the minor illness has become a terminal illness in the end, and the Da Luo Immortal can't do anything." Don't learn from her, eat three meals a day, be on time, drink medicine after meals, and don't have a drop left from the eldest brother who gives you, and this adult will have to check it in the future. ”

"My lord, why are you like my brother?" Yun Sheng rubbed his forehead, quite dissatisfied.

Zhang Jiusheng raised his hand when he heard this, and was confident: "I am a few years older than you, and I can barely afford to call me brother." ”

Yun Sheng rolled his eyes, and was poked by Zhang Jiusheng again: "Go, take medicine." ”

As the so-called rain in the Huangmei season, during this time in Fan County, there was a burst of rain in the east and a burst of rain in the west, and people were about to soak without bones, but they were happy to spoil the frogs in the pond, not to mention Yunsheng, even Zhang Jiusheng was also blocked in the Wei Mansion on this rainy day and couldn't get out, so he simply took advantage of the good weather one day, packed a few clothes, and lived in the yamen with an umbrella.

When Yun Sheng heard this, it was okay, no, she had to live in it too, so she was better off acting, and immediately packed her luggage and moved to the yamen together. After Zhang Qiye found out, he didn't react, anyway, he was twelve months a year, and half of the time he lived in the hospital, so he took advantage of the weather in Huangmei to make some more anti-rheumatic patches, and by the way, he also brought some to Yun Sheng.

On this day, in the autopsy room of the Yamen, Zhang Tong, as usual, was eating snacks on the corpse, and when Zhang Jiusheng was entrusted to look for him, he happened to see Zhang Tong holding a pair of chopsticks poking around on a corpse with a dissected stomach.

"Eh, I'm a mother!" Zhang Jiusheng only glanced at it, and the half foot that reached in immediately retracted, and the whole person seemed to be hit on the head by a hammer, and he staggered and retreated.

Zhang Tong turned around, lifted the white cloth as soon as he stretched out his hand, covered the body tightly, and then smiled flatteringly: "Hehe, why are you here, my lord?" Why don't you call someone to notify me, I'm better prepared, right? Adults, do you want to have a snack? ”

Zhang Jiusheng glanced at it, his stomach was nauseous, and he waved his hand again and again: "No, no, you eat, you eat." ”

"Your Excellency is looking for me?" Zhang Tong took back the dim sum and didn't eat it, which was exactly what he wanted.

Zhang Jiusheng turned his back in order not to think of the things in the autopsy room: "Didn't Yunsheng want to learn autopsy?" Then I came to beg you and teach her. ”

Zhang Tong's eyes widened, he didn't eat the dim sum, and walked around to Zhang Jiusheng: "My lord, are you okay?" I was still holding back from learning before, but now why do I come to speak in person? No, didn't you let her investigate the case herself? Why did you start letting her run around after the Red Bean case began? ”

"Isn't this Lord bothered by her?"

"My lord, Yun Sheng is indeed talented, but he is not a good master to be a master, what kind of job can he grab from me?" Zhang Tong pondered the other meanings hidden in Zhang Jiusheng's eyes, shook his hand, and said while walking back: "Don't teach, don't teach, if he learns to perform an autopsy, what use will I have for this yamen?" ”

Yun Sheng hid under the porch not far away, gritted his teeth, squinted his eyes, and snorted lowly.

After she left, Zhang Jiusheng retreated to the door of the autopsy room, knocked lightly on the door with his hand, and Zhang Tong turned around: "Gone?" ”

Zhang Jiusheng nodded, hid his hand in his sleeve, and gave him a thumbs up.

"My lord, you really don't teach? I think Yun Sheng really wants to learn. ”

"My brother said, her body is not as good as before, and the work of autopsy, and those who are strong may be infected with something unclean, let alone a weak chicken? I don't have to let her learn, I have to wait for her to get better, I'll tell you, don't teach her in private if you can't resist her temptation, before the case of Hongdou, my attention was attracted to the past, and she took advantage of the loophole, and then I have to guard against her. Zhang Jiusheng then said a few more words before he left slowly.

Zhang Tong leaned against the door frame, ate the dim sum without a bite, and said softly: "When this girl was in the capital, she was already famous. If it weren't for that incident, why hide like this? ”

"It seems that this Zhang County Commander is not an embroidered pillow as rumored." At this time, someone who was far away in the capital spread out a note in his hand, a white jade wrench on his thumb, and the five-clawed golden dragon on his chest showed off his might, almost wanting to vacate it.

"I heard that it was given by the former emperor?" He said again.

"Yes, Imperial Doctor Zhang has meritorious service to the royal family, and meritorious service to Jiangshan Sheji, and when he retired, he asked the emperor for such a reward." Sanyu stood below and answered, as an internal attendant, he had been by this side since he was a child, what to say and what not to say, he had long been perfected.

"I heard that girl is in his house?"

"Back to Your Majesty, yes. After three years of raising there, the body bones are still not very good, and the people who returned said that there is residual poison in the body, which is not clean, and the person is as thin as a piece of paper, as if it will fall when the wind blows. ”

Li Hongzhi threw the note in his hand on the table, a red rope on his wrist showed his sleeve a little, he pinched it and gently stuffed it back, and said: "It's burned, let someone check what kind of poison it is, and find a way to stuff it into Baishitang if you need any medicinal materials." ”

"That ......" Sanyu was about to go out, but as if he thought of something, he stopped sideways, and looked like he had something to say or not.

"Huh?"

"Red Bean Girl......"

Li Hongzhi lowered his head, pinched the red rope on his wrist with his fingers, and said after a while: "Find a way to bring her back." ”
