Chapter 127: Out of Prison
The princess saw Wanjun's anger, and hurriedly rescued the letter from her hand, and persuaded Wanjun, saying: "Wanjun, I know that you are very angry in your heart now, and I wish that this letter paper is the enemy who killed Su Qing in prison, and you want to break him into pieces." I can understand your feelings, but this letter can be used as evidence to save him, so I have to ask your men to be merciful. ”
Wanjun, who was carried away by anger, finally regained her senses under the persuasion of the princess. sent a tightly clenched fist, pulled the pockmarked face and the princess, and prepared to go to the county government to rescue Su Qing.
The group rushed to the county office, and Xie Wanjun directly picked up the drum hammer at the door of the county government and beat the drum fiercely.
The official who guarded the door hurriedly went to the palace to report, and the princess comforted Mazimian on the side, trying to make her overcome her fear and tell the truth, and after the princess saw the letter, her hostility towards Mazimie vanished.
Faced with this poor woman, the princess let go of her usual willfulness, as if she had changed a person, and tried every means to comfort her.
After a while, a short, pot-bellied official walked out slowly.
"The lower officials didn't know that the princess had arrived, and they missed the distance, and they still looked at the princess Haihan." The fat-headed and big-eared official bowed respectfully and made a "please" hand gesture.
The group entered under the guidance of the officials.
The officials who "ascended to the court" did not dare to be careless, and hurriedly organized people to be promoted to the court to deal with the grievances of those who complained about their grievances.
"Wei ...... Wu ...... "A group of officials knocked on the ground with wooden planks, but in the eyes of others, they were just posturing.
The princess sat on the upper seat next to the county magistrate and watched the county magistrate Su Qing overturn the case.
"Who is the one who kneels down in the hall, and what are the grievances?" The county commander spoke in official language mechanically, and his tone was cold.
"The people's daughter, Xie Wanjun, is Su Qing's wife, who came to the case of Su Qing's cheating marriage and was imprisoned, and asked Lord Qingtian to make the decision for the people's daughter, and release the husband of the people's daughter, so that our family can be reunited." After Xie Wanjun finished speaking, he kowtowed to the county order.
"Diao Min Xie Wanjun, do you think that this county government was opened by your family, since the person has been imprisoned, how can you say that you will let it go?" The county magistrate was obviously very angry, and even felt that he had lost face by Wanjun, and he imprisoned Su Qing a few days ago, which was very popular with the people.
"The folk girl is guilty, she shouldn't have given false testimony to frame Su Qing, it's true that the folk girl once saved Su Qing, but before that, the folk girl didn't know Su Qing, let alone have a marriage contract. The folk girl was really instigated by others, so she ......" Mazi knelt on the ground with her face, her eyes looked at the eyes of the county order, hoping that her complaint would make the county order change her mind and let Su Qing go.
"How can this be done, you, you people, went to my county to make trouble, and someone came to drag this prisoner out. Hit me with a big bang. And you, Xie Wanjun, it's still too late to withdraw the case, and if you dare to come out to make trouble, you will all be served. The county commander was furious, and his fat face was covered with redness.
The official on the side received the order and directly pulled the pockmarked face to the side, preparing to beat him violently.
"Who dares to touch her!" At this time, the princess took the case, her eyes widened angrily, and she couldn't wait to eat the county order.
The county order was empty, but he still had to die to save face and suffer the crime, so he had to let the officials be executed.
"Have you forgotten whose world this world is? This princess just asked you to deal with the case truthfully, why are you still angry. If this adult breaks him, how can she tell the truth? The princess was not angry but threatened, and the county commander was so frightened that she hurriedly asked the officials to show mercy.
"Then tell me, who secretly instigated you to frame Su Qing?"
"Yes......" Before the words of the pockmarked face could be spoken, he closed his eyes forever. A poison dart shot from the shadows pierced straight into the chest of Mazi's face, killing him instantly.
The people in the court faced this sudden scene, and they were instantly in chaos. For the sake of Wanjun's safety, the princess hurriedly took Wanjun away.
The next day, news came that the county order was ready to release the people, but Su Qing refused to come out.
Early the next morning, a jailer went to Su Qing's cell to deliver food. Since the princess came to the county office, the jailers knew that Su Qing's identity was not so simple, so they arranged a cell with relatively good conditions for him alone, and gave him some hot and fresh food. The jailer's attitude towards him also became much more respectful.
Su Qing didn't know what was going on in the world outside the bars, and in the face of the change of the jailer, Su Qing simply thought that Wanjun secretly gave the jailer an attitude and secretly used the silver to take care of everything, in exchange for his slightly dignified life in prison.
"Su Qing, you can leave after eating." The jailer took Su Qing's food out of the food box and placed it on the table for him.
Su Qing watched the jailer's movements, carefully chewed on what the jailer had just said, and thought that he was hallucinating.
"Brother Jailer, I didn't hear what you said just now." Su Qing asked respectfully. I want to confirm it.
"That's right, the master has found out the truth, you can go out." The jailer glanced at him and turned to leave.
Su Qing heard the leader of the jailers chatting with several jailers, although he didn't hear it very clearly, he learned from the gossip that it was related to the Lu family.
Su Qing listened carefully, remembering the news that the jailer leader had inadvertently revealed.
After Su Qing finished eating, he leaned against the wall and closed his eyes and pretended to sleep, but he took the words of the jailer leader to heart word for word.
The jailer who delivered the meal came back not long after, took away the dishes and chopsticks, and did not forget to urge Su Qing to quickly pack up and leave.
Su Qing said that he was reluctant to let him go and wanted to stay in prison for more time.
"You're such a strange person."
The jailer found it strange that every time a prisoner learned that he could be released from prison, he either gobbled it up and left quickly, or simply grabbed the dry food and ran away. After eating slowly, Su Qing was the first one who leaned against the wall and refused to leave.
"Okay, okay, if you don't go out, you won't go out."
The jailer knew that the relationship between Su Qing and the princess was not ordinary, and when he learned that Su Qing wanted to stay in prison for a few more days, he didn't dare to offend, so he could only serve carefully for a few more days.
After Wanjun at home learned the news that Su Qing could be released from prison but refused to be released from prison, her reaction was the same as that jailer, in addition to being surprised, she was also puzzled.
But Wanjun knew that Su Qing must have his reasons for doing this. If Su Qing had anything to do in prison, he would simply let him do it, his case had been rehabilitated, and the jailer would probably not embarrass him again.
After a few days, Su Qing came back. However, his face was not tired and decadent when he had just come out of prison, but was radiant and in good spirits.
"Wanjun ......"
When Su Qing returned home, she saw Wanjun who had not been seen for a few days, and she had a feeling that she had not seen her for a day, even though she had only been in prison for a week, she felt like she had spent a long few years there. Su Qing watched Wanjun take care of her home and teahouse in an orderly manner, and she felt an indescribable happiness in her heart.
Su Qing couldn't help but feel a little distressed when she looked at Wanjun busy in the teahouse. Looking at the woman in front of her, working so meticulously, Su Qing couldn't help but smile.
"Wanjun, you've worked hard."
Seeing that everything was fine at home, Su Qing remembered that he had almost missed a major incident. Hurriedly stepped forward to say hello to Wanjun, and hurriedly ran to the stable, chose a horse, and turned over on the horse.
Su Qing whipped the horse, the sound of the horse's hooves clattered, rolled up the smoke and dust all the way, and arrived at the princess's mansion in a hurry, so he hurriedly called the door.
The boy who answered the door introduced Su Qing into the house, and Su Qing hinted that the princess would step down, and handed a notebook to the princess.
"Your Highness the Princess."
The princess took the notebook, took a cursory look at it, and suddenly found that this was evidence about the Lu family's conspiracy.
"How did you find out about this kind of thing?"
The princess was very excited, and at the same time a little curious, how did this secret matter be known to Su Qing.
Su Qing just smiled, then sorted out her emotions, and told the princess what she had seen and heard in the cell these days.
Originally, the princess was surprised that Su Qing was still in prison after Su Qing was released from prison, but when she learned that Su Qing had endured many more days in prison in order to find out the secrets of the Lu family, she was suddenly in awe of Su Qing.
"This Su Qing is not bad!"
Su Qing knew that he had completed the task, so he got up and said goodbye, preparing to leave the princess's mansion and go home to accompany Wanjun.
After Su Qing left, the princess hurried to find the Seventh Prince, ready to discuss countermeasures with him, and see how to make the best use of the evidence and expose the Lu family's conspiracy.
The Seventh Prince looked at the evidence in his hand that had been compiled into a book, and felt that he had a bottom in his heart, and decided to leave the town with the princess and enter Beijing to meet the emperor.
The news that the Seventh Prince and the princess were preparing to leave the town and return to Beijing soon spread in the town.
"I heard that no, the Seven Princes and the princess are leaving."
"yes, they seem to be going to quit at the teahouse." A few people gathered around a stall and discussed with themselves.
Xie Wanjun learned that the princess and the prince were preparing to leave, and planned to resign for them in the teahouse. After all, this teahouse has always been operated under the care of the princess, and no one dares to make trouble anymore, and business is still booming.
Wanjun sent someone to the princess's mansion early to spread the news, informing them that she would resign for them.
On this day, the teahouse was very busy, in order to say goodbye to the prince and princess, the cook of the stove room went to the market early to buy fresh things, and carved them in the kitchen, and the food was extraordinarily exquisite, with all the colors and flavors.
The Lu family learned that Su Qing and his wife were going to see off the princess and the seventh prince in the teahouse, and they also planned to attend.
Before, the princess knew that the Lu family had the intention of rebellion, but because there was no evidence, she could only whitewash the peace and maintain a superficial friendship with the Lu family, but now that she has obtained the evidence of the Lu family's rebellion, the princess can no longer force herself to restrain her temper and speak well to the Lu family.
"I'm sorry, the Lu family was not invited and was not allowed to enter!"
As soon as the Lu family arrived at the teahouse, they were blocked by the people sent by the princess. The Lu family, who had eaten the closed door, was dissatisfied, but the majesty of the princess and the prince had no choice but to endure their temper and leave stupidly.
The princess and the seven princes enjoyed singing and dancing in the teahouse, and tasted tea and snacks.
Hearing the next person come over and say: "The Lu family ate the closed door soup and left in a huff." When the princess and Wanjun heard this, they clutched their stomachs and laughed like children who had succeeded in their pranks.
The princess and the seventh prince got into the carriage, and the carriage that returned to Beijing to send off the princess and the prince was ready to leave, although Wanjun and Su Qing were reluctant, they could only send each other in front of the teahouse.
Not long after the princess left, the Lu family took a group of people to the teahouse to eat the overlord meal, relying on the princess's absence and no one to protect the teahouse, doing evil. But fortunately, he just ate and didn't fight in the teahouse, causing even greater losses.
Wanjun knew that the Lu family was eating the princess's closed door. did not participate in the send-off banquet of the princess and the seventh prince, and there was nowhere to vent his unhappiness, so he could only use the teahouse to vent his anger.
The Lu family has taken advantage of the absence of the princess these days, and they are even more villains, making things bad everywhere, causing the business of the teahouse to be bleak.
