Chapter Seventy-Seven: Visiting the Prison Master Chen Zhuang

The dirty old man suddenly realized, "Are you talking about that embroidery girl?" Then I remember. Yes, it does. He leaned over and whispered, "What?" Did you find the embroiderer of the year? ”

Yang Leyu shook her head: "I'm not sure if this Jia Xiuniang is the embroidery girl you said, but when I went to Jiangnan on this trip, I heard all the good things about Jia Xiuniang, and I think she won't hurt Concubine Zhuang." ”

"You're wrong." The dirty old man swallowed a sip of wine, "Seeing is not necessarily believing, and hearing is even more false." Only if you actually experience this person can you decipher the truth. ”

Yang Leyu: "Everyone said that Jia Xiuniang entered the palace, I asked a friend of Shangyi Supervisor, and she had no impression of this person. But Jia Xiuniang is from Juyuanzhuang, Juyuanzhuang's embroidery is the first in the world, if she really stayed in the palace, then how come the juniors of Shangyi Prison have never even heard of it? ”

The dirty old man thought thoughtfully: "There are only two possibilities. ”

Yang Leyu couldn't wait: "Which two?" ”

The dirty old man stretched out two fingers and flexed one, "First, the people in Juyuanzhuang are lying. He bent up again, "Second, your friend is lying to you." ”

Yang Leyu took a sip of wine, since she was imprisoned last time, Wu Buyue has been sincere to her like a treasure, and she will no longer doubt her.

To say Juyuanzhuang...... Master Chen!

Yang Leyu put down his wine glass and asked the jailer, "Brother, where are the prisoners from Qianjun locked up?" ”

The jailer clenched his fists, "Hui Niangniang, their sins are unforgivable, and Your Majesty ordered the younger ones to be held on death row." ”

Yang Leyu: "Is death row also here?" ”

Jailer: "There are two floors in the dungeon, and this first level is where Niangniang sees it now, and death row is at your feet. ”

The dirty old man saw her thoughts, "Little girl, curiosity kills cats, don't narrow your path." ”

Yang Leyu smiled at him, "Grandpa, don't worry, I know it in my heart." She dusted off her dust and stood up, "Then you eat slowly, I think Your Majesty will let you out soon." During this period, I will send the little eunuch Shanhai in my palace to see you once every two days, if you still want to eat anything on weekdays, tell Shanhai and promise to send it to you. ”

The dirty old man nodded, "Okay! ”

Yang Leyu gave the jailer two taels of silver ingots, "Trouble brother take me to death row to have a look." ”

The jailer weighed the silver ingot and put it in his arms, "Concubine, death row is not a place for noble people like you, if Your Majesty knew about it, he would definitely cut off his little head." ”

Yang Leyu: "What is noble or not, didn't I come to this place a few days ago?" I don't like vain heads, so either take me with you or give me back the ingots. ”

The jailer said twice, "Please come with the little one." ”

The jailer led Yang Leyu to a groove in the wall, pulled the gears on the wall, and a simple 'elevator' rose up.

The two of them stood in the 'elevator', and the jailer manually slid the ladder down.

The light on the second basement floor was even worse than above, and not only was the candlelight dim, but the smell was also mixed with the smell of rotting blood, like rancid kefir.

Yang Leyu really couldn't stand the smell, and followed the jailer with her mouth and nose covered.

"Concubine Niangniang, this is it." The jailer stopped in front of a cell.

By the dim candlelight, Yang Leyu saw a stack of people lying inside, at first glance I thought it was a dead body, but when I looked closely, they were not completely dead, but they were covered with bruises, and there were many missing arms and legs.

Because of the inconvenience of physical mobility, I simply lay there, reduced my consumption, and lived with a hanging breath.

Yang Leyu couldn't bear to look at it and looked away.

"You're here." A voice came, Yang Leyu turned around, and the owner of Chen Zhuang sat in the prison with his hair scattered, and his body was more or less bloody.

Yang Leyu's heart trembled, the former owner of Chen Zhuang was dressed up glamorously and gracefully, but in just a few days, he became this sloppy.

"Master Chen." Yang Leyu called, "You....... You okay? ”

She regretted it when she said this, and it didn't look like it was good for people to look at it, so she quickly changed her words: "In such a bad environment, the wound will be infected, and I can call the imperial doctor to treat you." ”

Master Chen sneered: "Don't cry and fake mercy, I poisoned your pearl hairpin, causing you to almost die in Juyuanzhuang, you should hate me." ”

Yang Leyu: "To be honest, I didn't hate you. ”

Master Chen squinted at her.

Yang Leyu said: "I can understand the annoyance and anger when a person's secret is discovered, so I don't blame you." She smiled faintly: "After all, I also learned a craft from you, which is half a master." ”

Master Chen: "Oh? Don't tell me you're here to visit me today. ”

Yang Leyu put the food box into the prison door, "I guess you don't like to drink, so you put tea in it, it's your favorite pine needles." ”

Chen Zhuang's eyebrows lit up, and he opened the tea lid, and it was indeed pine needles, but it was a pity that it was cold.

She took a sip, "The pine needles in the capital are not as fragrant as those in Qianjun." ”

Yang Leyu: "But at least it's cleaner than Qianjun's, and it's safe to drink." ”

A pun, Chen Zhuang is a smart person, "Sheep girl......." she worded: "Concubine Niangniang, what do you want to know?" ”

Yang Leyu sent the jailer away before he spoke: "I want to ask Master Chen, who else was able to enter the metaverse with you back then?" ”

Lord Chen frowned, "I can't say, this is a violation." ”

Yang Leyu: "Okay, then I'll tell you, if I guess right, you can take a sip of tea; If I'm wrong, you don't speak, okay? ”

Lord Chen pondered for a moment and slowly bowed his head.

Yang Leyu got straight to the point: "Jia Xiuniang." ”

The teacup in the hand of the owner of Chen Zhuang fell to the ground and shattered into sharp porcelain pieces with a 'click'.

She reached for it, but her finger was cut.

Yang Leyu looked at the debris and water stains on the ground, and already had the answer in her heart.

Chen Zhuang said, "She's not." ”

Yang Leyu: "You don't have to hide it. Your Suzhou embroidery skills are superb, and you must have practiced picking needles on weekdays, and you have never hurt your hands when you fall to the ground like a silver needle goddess scattering flowers, just a tea cup, how can you be cut? ”

Chen Zhuang was in a trance for a moment, "That's it, you know, you know." ”

Yang Leyu squatted down on her knees to look at her, "What is Jia Xiuniang here for?" ”

Chen Zhuang picked up the fragments one by one, stacked them in one place, and said: "We are the first batch of users to come in to experience the metaverse, at that time this thing was not popular, we had our own tasks, others did not know, and they would not deliberately ask." If the system catches the violation, the fine is too high for anyone to pay. ”

Yang Leyu watched her silently.

Chen Zhuang owner: "When we first came, we did handicrafts on the streets of Qianjun, knitted insoles, embroidered Suzhou embroidery, and later found that the people of Qianjun County were extremely fond of Suzhou embroidery, and our small shop soon became bigger, so we hired workers to find a barren mountain and build Juyuanzhuang.

You must have also noticed that the name Juyuanzhuang has a special meaning, which is taken from the meaning of 'bringing people together in the metaverse'. ”
