Chapter 297: Released from prison without guilt

In the edict prison, Gu Yunji was dizzy, and his spirit shrank in the corner of the cell.

Even though there is a gold sore medicine to treat the wound, but in the end there is no special treatment, Gu Yunji's chest injury is currently in a state of semi-healing, the outside is scabbing, and the new flesh inside has just grown, and the slightest movement may cause the wound to rupture, he can only sit on the ground without moving, and his legs are numb all day long.

However, compared with Fang Zigui, Gu Yunji was already very lucky. Fang Zigui had received more whips than him at the beginning, and there was no medicine to treat the wounds, and now it was April and summer had just begun, and after the weather became hot, Fang Zigui's wounds gradually showed signs of festering. In the past few days, he has been having a high fever, people are about to burn and dazed, and most of the time every day he is unconscious, and he can't even scold Gu Yunji.

I don't know how long it took, the iron chains in the cell clanged, the door was opened, and Zhao Fan, who was wearing a flying fish guard uniform, walked in.

Hearing the voice, Gu Yunji's empty eyes regained a little brilliance, he turned his stiff neck, and was about to ask, but saw Zhao Fan take out a holy decree, and said loudly: "Gu Yunji, Fang Zigui listens to the decreeβ€”β€”"

Gu Yunji was stunned when he heard this, his mind instantly cleared up most of the time, and he quickly knelt down respectfully.

"Your Majesty's decree: After investigation, there is insufficient evidence of Gu Yunji's collusion with Bai Xingjia to commit fraud, and it is really false, and Gu Yunji, Fang Zigui, Bai Xingjia and other relevant personnel in this case are all acquitted."

"On the other hand, the former Hanlin editor Fang Zi was transferred to the Guozi Jian Zheng Liupin Division, and the former Hanlin editor Gu Yunji was transferred to the Xuzhou Mansion Zheng Liupin General Judgment, and the two of them received the order, and they should take office on the same day, and there must be no mistakes, Qin thisβ€”β€”"

"Ministers and other leaders, long live my emperor, long live, long live."

Holding the holy decree in his hand, Gu Yunji still didn't react, and read it over and over again, lest he heard it wrong.

Seeing this, Zhao Fan hurriedly said: "Why, Lord Gu can't believe that he can go out with all his tails after entering the edict prison?" Don't worry, this is a holy decree issued by His Majesty himself, and there will be no mistake. ”

Gu Yunji suddenly came back to his senses and said, "That's not it, I know that I can't go out sooner or later because of the lack of evidence, but I didn't expect it to be so fast." I wonder how His Majesty could suddenly think of transferring me from the Hanlin Academy to the Xuzhou Mansion? ”

Zhao Fan smiled and said, "Your Majesty's thoughts, I can't guess it. But then again, Lord Gu went to the Imperial Prison for a while, and was promoted from the Hanlin editor of the seventh grade to the general judgment of the sixth grade, which can be regarded as a blessing in disguise, congratulations to Lord Gu for his promotion. ”

Gu Yunji smiled politely and did not answer.

What is a blessing in disguise is clearly a curse from beginning to end. When the Hanlin Academy "graduated", the Hanlin officials were usually transferred to the Sixth Ministry, and only under special circumstances would they be sent to the state capitals as magistrates.

Xuzhou Mansion is located in the southwest, the geographical location is remote, the economy is backward, in the early years of the Dynasty was still a place of exile for prisoners, it can be said that it is one of the most backward and remote state capitals in the country. What's more, the magistrate has always been one level shorter than the Beijing official, and this kind of appointment is to be promoted and degraded, and if you are a bystander, you are afraid that you will cry and mourn your face.

Fang Zigui's situation is similar to him, Guozijian is nominally the most authoritative and formal school in the imperial court, but in fact, the qualifications of students in recent years are uneven, most of them are after the rich gentry who spend money and gild, as well as the children of nobles who do not do their jobs, and there are almost no people who really come in to study.

In this case, Guozijian has almost become a cold bench, except for the older officials who will come to teach and "retire" at the same time, there are basically no young and promising officials to serve here.

To put it bluntly, Gu Yunji and Fang Zigui were both transferred out of the political center this time, one has real power but is not in the capital, and the other has no real power in the capital.

Fang Zigui was injured and burned badly, except for barely supporting his spirit when he read the holy decree, he couldn't even walk at this time, and was carried out. Gu Yunji watched him be carried away coldly, but finally withdrew his gaze and said nothing.

Zhao Fan noticed his movements and said, "If you suspect that someone is framing you this time, you can appeal to the above, but that is not the scope of our Flying Fish Guard's authority, you have to go to the Three Law Divisions." ”

Gu Yunji responded: "Well, I know, thank you Lord Zhao for reminding me." ”

That being said, he didn't intend to appeal. It can be seen from the transfer of the two this time that Emperor Jingfeng knows the truth behind it, and the reason why he will deal with it like this is that he doesn't want to pursue it too much, and he doesn't need to be uninteresting to do it against Emperor Jingfeng.

What's more, since Fang Zigui has started, he will definitely deal with the traces, even if he appeals, it is useless, he can only find a chance to get it back in the future.

At this time, a jailer came over and handed a set of clothes to Gu Yunji: "Lord Gu, this is the clothes sent by your family, you can go out after changing, your family is waiting for you outside." ”

Gu Yunji was still wearing the official uniform when he was in prison, he had already been whipped and broken, and he was dirty, so he couldn't go out to meet people. Hearing this, he hurriedly changed his clothes, and deliberately covered the scar that extended to his collarbone, and after confirming that there was no problem, he walked outside.

Walking out of the gate of the Imperial Prison, Gu Yunji was dazzled by the bright light, and stayed in the dark and damp dungeon for more than ten days.

When he was out of his mind, a familiar voice with trembling sounded in his ears: "Yunji." ”

Gu Yunji came back to his senses, turned his head to find his wife's figure, the corners of his lips rose, and he showed a smile at her: "Shuhua, I'm back." ”

The moment he saw Gu Yunji, Xu Shuhua's tears instantly filled his eyes, his heart was tightly gripped, sore and painful, and he almost couldn't believe that the man in front of him who was haggard and tortured was his husband.

Gu Yunji walked over slowly, his eyes carefully delineated her face, and sighed lightly: "Shuhua, you have cleared it." ”

The surging emotions swept over, Xu Shuhua couldn't restrain it anymore, and suddenly threw herself into her husband's arms and whimpered in a low voice: "I thought I would never see you again......"

Gu Yunji stroked her back and comforted her softly: "Okay, okay, don't cry, didn't I come out?" It's all bearded and all tailed, nothing at all, don't worry. ”

Xu Shuhua didn't speak, but hugged him tighter and tighter, and the tears flowed more fiercely.

Gu Yunji was helpless and deliberately teased her: "I haven't taken a bath for so many days, my body is very dirty, you hold me like this, don't you dislike it?" ”

Xu Shuhua was very distressed, and when he heard this, he beat him, stopped his tears a little, and said with red eyes: "Bastard, you are still joking with me at this time." ”

Gu Yunji happened to be beaten to the wound, but in order not to worry Xu Shuhua, he endured it and didn't make a sound.

Xu Shuhua was keenly aware of his stiffness for a moment, and hurriedly let go of him and asked urgently, "What's wrong?" Where is it uncomfortable? Was he tortured in prison? Where's the injury? Let me see. As she spoke, she rolled up Gu Yunji's sleeves and wanted to check the injury.

Gu Yunji grabbed her hand and quietly dodged her movements: "It's okay, it's just a little oily skin, a small injury." ”

Coming out of the edict known as Yama Hell, how could it be just to rub off the oily skin, but now it is on the street, although Xu Shuhua is worried, he has to hold back his mood first and wait until he gets home.
