Chapter Twenty-Nine: Yue Fei Goes to Prison and Cao Cao Rescues

Cao Cao has carefully inspected the people's livelihood, agricultural livelihood, and geographical location in Taiyuan in the past few days, and only then did he come to this conclusion.

Taiyuan has an important geographical location and has been a battleground for soldiers since ancient times.

Taiyuan is surrounded by mountains on all sides, easy to defend and difficult to attack, the territory has a large population, the economy is rich, it can be said that Taiyuan has been obtained, and it has choked the lifeblood of the Central Plains.

The former dynasty Li Yuan raised troops in Taiyuan and finally established the Tang Dynasty, which is enough to show the importance of Taiyuan.

At this time, Wang Meng came over, held the map in his hand and asked, "My lord, where are we going?" ”

"Xiangzhou Tangyin." Cao Cao looked into the distance and said meaningfully.

At this time, because he was far away from Chao Gai and Tian Hu's sphere of influence, there was nothing to do along the way.

Wu Song also took this opportunity to read books, recuperate from his injuries, and slowly recovered.

On this day, Cao Cao and his entourage came to Tangyin County.

After arriving in Tangyin, Cao Cao inquired about Yue Fei's residence, but unexpectedly learned the news - Yue Fei was arrested!

When Cao Cao heard the news, he ordered Wang Meng to find an inn to live in, and took Wu Song to Yonghe Township Xiaoyili, Yue Fei's hometown.

"Brother, what crime has my little junior brother committed? Why was he arrested by the government? On the way, Wu Song couldn't help but ask.

"I don't know the specific situation, let's ask Yue Fei after we meet his family, what outsiders know is hearsay." Cao Cao was hurrying while thinking about how to rescue Yue Fei.

But there is a premise, that is, to know what crime Yue Fei has committed in order to think of appropriate countermeasures.

When Cao Cao and Wu Song came to Yue Fei's house, they saw Yue Fei's mother, Yao, washing her face with tears.

"Auntie, we are old friends with Yue Fei. This is Wu Song, Pengju's senior brother. I just arrived in Tangyin County today, and when I learned that my junior brother had been arrested, I was anxious and wanted to know why he was arrested. After Cao Cao identified himself, he hurriedly said.

Yao wiped away his tears and said: "There is a big family in Yonghe Township, surnamed Ma Mingli, he has a son named Ma Ye, this horse industry is a big family, and his father has a good personal relationship with the county order, and he is idle all day long, doing evil. ”

On this day, he came to Xiaoyi and saw a girl named Xiaofang in the village, who was very beautiful, so he had a bad heart. After Ma Li ruined the girl, he was unwilling to be responsible, so he patted his ass and left. ”

Who knew that Xiaofang was pregnant, now all the villagers knew about it, Xiaofang couldn't stand the cynicism of the villagers, and committed suicide by hanging herself without thinking about it for a while. It's a pity that the age of flowers and jade is gone. ”

"Xiaofang's parents asked the Ma family for an explanation, but they were beaten out by the Ma family, covered in injuries, and the villagers were angry."

"After my son found out, he couldn't get angry, so he went to Ma's house to theorize. Who knew that this horse industry not only admitted his mistake, but also took his family and threatened to kill my son. ”

"My son got into a fight with Ma Ye and his gang in a fit of rage, and during the fight, Ma Ye fell off his horse and was trampled to death by the horse."

"The Ma family reported to the official, saying that my son beat Ma Ye to death, and then the county government arrested my son and sentenced him to death without asking any questions."

"We actively rescued, but the Ma family is powerful, and Ma Li is friends with the county order, so we ......"

When Yao Shi said this, he cried again: "Poor my son, who has studied art for many years, is upright, and is about to serve the country, but he suffered such a catastrophe, what can I do?" What will I do when he's dead? ”

"Don't worry, old lady, since we know about this matter, we will definitely find a way to rescue Yue Fei." Cao Cao comforted.

Yao got up from his chair and asked eagerly, "Is there any way you can rescue my son?" ”

Cao Cao thought for a moment and had an idea: "Listening to the description of the eldest mother, Yue Fei did not kill the horse industry with his own hands, but he himself fell off the horse and was trampled to death." According to the law of the Great Song Dynasty, the death penalty should not be imposed, and there must be something strange in this. ”

"In this way, we will go our separate ways, and Wu Song and I will go to the county government to deal around; You have to write a petition for redress of grievances, call on the villagers to sign, and the more people who sign, the better, and use the power of the masses to put pressure on the county order. ”

"I believe that under the pressure of the law and public opinion, this county magistrate will not dare to bend the law for personal gain."

After listening to Cao Cao's words, Yao Shi seemed to have grasped a life-saving straw, and hurriedly called Yue Fei's younger brother Yue Tuo: "Okay, okay, let's go and write this grievance petition, turn it over, go quickly!" ”

"Be fast, it's best to finish it in two days, and if it's late, it will change. After writing it, I went to the Yongle Inn in Tangyin County and handed it to me. ”

After Cao Cao finished speaking, he said goodbye to Yue Fei's family and returned to Tangyin County before dark.

"Brother, my junior brother must have been wronged, can you really save him?" Wu Song asked.

"Even if he really kills someone, even if it is an official of the court, I will save it!" Cao Cao's tone was serious and unquestionable.

After Cao Cao heard that Yue Fei was wrongfully imprisoned for fighting grievances, his impression of him was a little better.

Cao Cao wanted to save Yue Fei from the bottom of his heart, no matter what, he couldn't accept the founding pillar of the country, and he died unjustly in prison before he left the mountain.

Wu Song looked at the sky: "Then I'll rest assured, it's getting dark, let's act tomorrow." ”

Early the next morning, Cao Cao and Wu Song came to Tangyin Prison, and Cao Cao took out a half-hanging copper coin and handed it to the prison guard, asking to see Yue Fei.

When the prison guard saw that Qian was open, he let Cao Cao and Wu Song go to prison.

Under the leadership of the jailer, Cao Cao finally met Yue Fei, who had been thinking about it for a long time.

Yue Fei is only sixteen or seventeen years old, but he is burly, with a white face and a round face.

Yue Fei was in prison and was still reading at this time.

When Cao Cao saw Yue Fei, he was extremely happy.

Wu Song took a few steps and shouted at Yue Fei: "Senior brother! ”

Yue Fei put down the book at this time and looked at Wu Song suspiciously: "Call me?" ”

"Yes, I once worshipped Zhou Dong, the iron arm of Shaanxi Hero, as my teacher, and you are naturally my junior brother!" Wu Song explained.

"You are?"

Wu Song waited until the jailer unlocked the door and entered the private room where Yue Fei was being held: "I'm Wu Song, and I've already met our senior brother Lu Junyi before. ”

"Fighting Tiger Wu Song? I had heard of Senior Brother Wu's name for a long time, and I didn't want to meet him here today. ”

Yue Fei, as the last disciple of Zhou Tong, often heard the master mention several senior brothers, and he was also extremely concerned about the senior brothers, and once said in front of the master that he would definitely meet with the five senior brothers in the future and take care of each other.

After Wu Song and Yue Fei met, they were overjoyed and laughed, not caring at all that this was a prison, which attracted a sideways look from the other prisoners.

Wu Song looked at Yue Fei's messy hair and haggard face, and hurriedly explained his intention: "Let me introduce you, this is my brother, we came today to find out about the specific situation of that day, so as to find a way to save you out." ”

Cao Cao picked up Yue Fei's book at this time and looked at it, it was full of notes, and nodded approvingly.

At the same time, Cao Cao carefully discovered Yue Fei's simulated sand table on the ground and fell into deep thought.

Cao Cao found that the two sides in Yue Fei's sand table were Song and Jin......

However, Yue Fei's words made Cao Cao and Wu Song stunned.

"Thank you, brother, I'm not going out!"
