"Bet on what?"

"Bet on whether I have done anything bad since I became a son of the world." Shen Yunfan squinted his eyes, "I bet on myself that I have never done anything bad."

"Joke, then your murder and wealth accumulation, is it all groundless?" Shizi glared.

"Don't talk nonsense, just say you don't gamble, mother-in-law and mother-in-law don't look like men."

These words really angered the scholar, and he turned red with anger, and said decisively: "Okay, then I will bet that you are a corrupt official, a villain who has done all kinds of bad things and dare not admit it!"

"Okay, time for a stick of incense. If I lose my bet, I'll be at your disposal. But if you lose, get down on your knees and apologize to me."

"Okay!" The gentleman agreed.

A gambling contract eased the original tense atmosphere a lot, but it added a little subtle suspicion.

Someone muttered, "This person surnamed Shen shouldn't be using a delaying tactic, right?"

"I think we'd better do it now."

"Everyone, don't be impatient, I'm going to wait for a result today!" The bet was a dead brain, so he sat down and waited.

He has some background in his family, and everyone didn't dare to say anything when they heard it, so they could only wait with him.

The prison in the capital fell into an eerie silence.

A stick of incense quickly burns to the bottom.

From beginning to end, no one on either side moved, and Shen Yunfan did not make any moves to prove his innocence.

"If you can't prove it, you've lost the bet." Shizi sneered.

The jailers pinched a cold sweat and said, "Divine Doctor Shen, you better run, you can't fight for this breath!"

Hearing this, everyone behind the scholar got up and stepped forward, for fear that Shen Yunfan would escape.

The moment the incense candle was burned, the scholar got up and said indifferently: "A stick of incense has passed, if you are a man, don't break your word, and enter the palace with us now!"

Shen Yunfan smiled, stared at the back of everyone, and said lightly:

"Don't worry, isn't that coming?"

Everyone was stunned when they heard this, and when they looked back, they saw more than a hundred guards of the capital walking in line towards this side.

However, they were dressed in black armor and crumpled, and their hair was messy, and their bodies were dirty. This embarrassed appearance is more like a beggar fleeing from the famine.

Behind them, each pulled a few empty carts.

But even if they were so embarrassed, the murderous momentum in their eyes still made everyone feel worried.

The leader of this small group of Praetorian Guards is none other than the commander of the Left Guard, Li Cheng!

I saw him quickly enter the prison, and then knelt down on one knee and shouted: "Shizi, the last general is fortunate to live up to his life, and has sent 50,000 taels of silver to Chuzhou, most of which have been exchanged for grain and cloth in advance, and we have personally distributed them to the victims of the disaster in Chuzhou and the front-line soldiers!"

"I heard that you came back last night, and it was really hard." Shen Yunfan patted Li Cheng on the shoulder and asked, "How is the battle situation on the front line?"

"The battle was stalemate, and the fight was fierce. The brothers have been on the front lines and have participated in several battles, and they have suffered a lot of losses." Li Cheng's resolute expression was a little sad.

When Shen Yunfan heard this, he raised his head and swept over the Praetorian Guards, these Praetorian Guards who had returned from the front line were really imposing!

This is a real soldier.

"Good, good, good! It's really a blessing for me to have you here!" Shen Yunfan's face was full of appreciation, and he asked the scholar next to him, "Now, do you think I'm still a corrupt official?"

"This ...... It's just one side." Shizi frowned.

Li Cheng glanced at him, and then arched his hand: "By the way, Shizi, there are still two people who want to see you."

"Oh? Who is it?" Shen Yunfan raised his eyebrows.

As soon as Li Cheng waved his hand, an old man with gray hair was helped up.

As soon as he saw him, he knelt on his knees and shouted, "The old man bows to thank Engong today, Engong is our reborn parent, and the life of the old man is not worthy of your kindness!"

Shen Yunfan looked confused, and Li Cheng explained, "This is the village chief of Xiaoshi Village in Chuzhou

, the village of Koishi, which was on the front lines of the fighting, has been burned. The whole village fled and almost starved to death."

"We happened to arrive at that time, and we were able to save these villagers with supplies. When the village chief found out that we were returning to Beijing, he insisted on coming with him, saying that he was thanking you for your kindness."

The village chief snorted and cried, kowtowing on the ground.

Shen Yunfan hurriedly helped him up and said seriously, "Old man, I was the prime minister of the times, and it was my duty to allocate funds. If you want to thank you, you should thank the court and the emperor."

Hearing this, Li Cheng's expression was a little strange, and he whispered, "Divine Doctor Shen, I heard on the way back that the emperor punished you for this?" Then I'll tell the emperor."

When he spoke, his tone was clearly dissatisfied with the emperor.

"Who else wants to see me?" Shen Yunfan waved his hand and changed the topic.

Li Cheng waved his hand, and another woman was brought up.

As soon as she met, she also knelt on the ground and thanked Shen Yunfan for her kindness.

"This is also the victim of the Chuzhou disaster?"

"No, this is a villager from a mountain village somewhere outside the capital, we met by chance."

The woman said, "My husband was forcibly captured in the capital many years ago because of his strong physique, and he was forced to come to the capital to be a thug in the martial arts arena, and he has not been able to return for several years. A few days ago, he suddenly came home and said that someone had saved him, and the grass people ...... The grass people are here to thank you!"

It turned out that this was the family of those thugs in the martial arts arena.

Shen Yunfan was a little emotional, and quickly helped the woman up and comforted her a few words.

At this time, the expressions of the people around him have become extremely exciting.

"Actually, that Qian Ye in the martial arts arena has done a lot of evil, it's quite damned, hasn't this surnamed Shen really done anything bad?"

"The 50,000 taels of silver that were looted were really sent to the front line?"

Shizi muttered, "It shouldn't be acting, right?"

Li Cheng's face changed, he suddenly reached out and grabbed the soldier's neck, and said with a cold gaze: "Shen Shizi didn't keep any of the money for stealing the martial arts arena at the beginning, and all of it was sent to Chuzhou to be distributed to the victims and soldiers, and it was sent by Lao Tzu himself."

"You nobles in the capital, all of you are clothed and fed, but have you ever taken a penny when the country is in trouble? I warn you, if you dare to slander again, don't blame my knife for not being long-sighted."

When he said this, everyone was red-faced!

After a while, a middle-aged wealthy businessman stepped forward and arched his hand: "Shen Shizi is worried about the country and the people, and I admire it. Today's incident seems to be a misunderstanding, so let's retire first!"

Some took the lead, others fled. Shizi didn't mention the gambling contract at all, and fled in the crowd.

Today, they have lost face.

The farce of the Beijing Prison has been seen by many people.

In addition to bringing those two people back, Li Cheng also brought a lot of refugees from Chuzhou. These people are grateful to Shen Yunfan, and Shen Yunfan's contribution to help Chuzhou has spread in the capital.

For a while, his prestige rose, and his original notoriety turned into a name praised by everyone in the blink of an eye!
