On duty in the evening, Zhou Xiang carried some wine and meat, came in and set the table, and the two drank. It seems that he no longer treats Zhao Shi as a child, and begins to call him a brother.

After the wine was hot, Zhou Xiang said embarrassedly, "This time the brother did a beautiful job, but is the little lady of the Liu family ......?" ”

As he spoke, he looked at Zhao Shi. Zhao Shi snickered in his heart and said: "Be cautious, the little lady's house has gone a lot, and people will get dirty when they know it."

Zhou Xiang's face immediately darkened after hearing this.

"But ......" Zhao Shi pulled a piece of beef with chopsticks and continued: "I can't take it, but the little lady can come."

Zhou Xiang was overjoyed when he heard this, and hurriedly asked, "Tell me in detail, how to come?" ”

"You can let the little lady often send some food to Liu Shusheng"

Zhao Shi sandwiched a piece of beef and threw it into his mouth: "This little lady sent some food to her husband, and the name is justified."

The pipe belt also came to deliver food every day, transferred me to the inner prison, and took the little lady to the dungeon and there was no one else, and I didn't let the pipe belt at will."

"Great goodness" Zhou Xiang slapped the table happily when he heard it.

Zhao Shi suddenly felt that he was playing for the tiger, but he thought that he was not a good person in the first place.

On the second day, Zhao Shi was transferred to the inner prison, the inner prison turned out to be an old soldier who had been with the prince for a long time, Zhou Xiang only said that the old army was old, and he was afraid that he would not be able to stand the damp cold of the dungeon, so he was transferred to the outer prison, and the salary remained unchanged.

The salaries of internal supervisors are much higher than those of external supervisors. Zhao Shi went down to the dungeon, and the first thing he arrived at was a room with a table and a bed, which should be a place for the jailer to rest.

Next to the house is a corridor, with an iron fence gate at the top, and the prison is the prison when you enter, and the middle passage is separated by an iron fence on both sides, and there are two oil lamps lit in the middle, and the dungeon is only locked up by a few prisoners.

There was a room at the top of the room, separated by an iron fence, locked, and the light on one side of the room was exposed, which should be a vent on the other side.

There were people in the house, but they never came out. Zhao Shi was told not to come over here, and to leave this side alone.

The next day, the little lady of the Liu family really sent food. The one at the door has already been informed and let it in.

Zhao Shi took the food box and asked another jailer to give it to the Liu Shusheng, then took the little lady down the dungeon, plugged in the outside door, took it to the room where he was resting, and went inside.

After a while, Zhou Xiang also walked out of it with the food box, locked the fence door, handed the food box to Zhao Shi, and hurriedly walked out.

Zhao Shi put the food box aside, moved a small pier and sat down, after a while, there was a heavy wheezing sound and a very slight moan, although Zhao Shi's body was not too mature, but it still reacted quite loudly.

was listening energetically, at this time an old man came out of the house, Zhao Shi was startled, the old man was full of scars, it seemed to be burns, his facial features were distorted and deformed, and he saw Zhao Shi nodding slightly.

Zhao Shi understood that this was the person who brought the food to the tube, and he didn't squeak, just nodded. The two of them sounded together, and after a while the old man whispered, "No wonder I'm in a hurry today, the family of the criminal."

casually guessed, Zhao Shi admired the old man quite a lot.

"It's also a worthless product, who are you?"

"Nephew" Zhao Shi wanted to go back

"How can anyone call a nephew to do this?"

The old man said casually, but Zhao Shi only smiled and did not answer.

After a while, the sound stopped, Zhao Shi got up and walked out with the food box, and saw that the little lady was already waiting outside the door, with traces of crying in the corners of her eyes, but her face was flushed and her head was bowed deeply.

Zhao Shi led her out. When he came back, Zhou Xiang had already come out with a food box, and he glanced at Zhao Shi and left.

The little lady of the Liu family basically came over every three or five days, and Zhou Xiang often asked Zhao Shi to put some silver coins in the food box she got back. After a few times, the little lady of the Liu family took the initiative to get up, and she was no longer sad and sad, and she also brought some food to Zhao Shi from time to time to please her.

Every time Zhao Shi moved a pier and sat in front of the fence of the hut behind, the old man also came out tacitly every time.

Gradually, the two became acquainted, and sometimes they came over to talk for a while when they couldn't sleep after meditating at night.

The old man only came out of the house at night, and basically did not come out during the day, probably because he was afraid of being seen, even if he could hardly see this side in other cells.

The old man is very cautious, he doesn't say a word about his own affairs, and when he was young, he should also be a romantic person, and he treasures all kinds of joy.

Zhao Shi had seen a lot of this thing in his previous life, and he often made the old man amazed with a casual opinion. Then he doubted Zhao Shibeinu's experience.

In his opinion, the prince may not have Zhao Shi as well-informed in this regard, but Zhao Shi is well-behaved and pushes everything to an old man in the outer land.

Two months passed, and Zhao Shi felt that the white qi accumulated in his abdomen had gradually turned into a full moon shape, but he didn't feel anything other than feeling energetic.

Zhou Xiang didn't leave after finishing his work that day, and sighed at Zhao Shi again. Zhao Shi smiled:

"Pipe band, if you have something, just say it, don't pretend."

Zhou Xiang was also embarrassed to get up and said: "Yesterday, the prince didn't know how to think about it, so he said that it wasn't a big deal."

"Oh, then let's put it," Zhao Shi said

"But this, but this one, won't I have no fun?" Zhou Xiang was anxious.

Zhao Shi pondered for a while and said, "I said that the pipe belt, let's take a pipe belt, it's not difficult to marry a few concubines, and then get a few maids and servants, what kind of woman can't get it?"

Let's just say that buying a big house is tight, with your friendship with the prince, it is not difficult to find the prince to ask for a decent house, right? Look at you every day to make a poor sour image, only know how to gamble, and always lose, spending money in the left hand and out of the right hand."

Zhou Xiang was embarrassed: "The house, the prince sent it, but then I lost the money and went out, and after my mother-in-law was gone, I also sent two maids and me."

Zhao Shiyi rolled his eyes: "Didn't Mo also lose?" ”

"That's not true," Zhou Xiang was even more embarrassed, "I ate too much wine and beat me to death."

Zhao Shi slapped his head and was completely speechless.

"But this little lady of the Liu family is different from the past, I really care, I have been gambling less recently, if I can't see each other again, life will be boring"

Zhao Shi almost spurted out a mouthful of old blood, looking at the 10,000 alpacas in Zhao Shi's heart.

"Then you just slaughtered the scholar"

When Zhou Xiang heard this, he hurriedly waved his hand, "Don't say anything, not to mention that if the Liu family makes trouble, the prince can't spare me, then the little lady has to fight with me."

"What do you want if you know it doesn't work?"

"I can't think of an idea, so I begged my brother to help me again."

The first time he saw Zhou Xiang talking to himself, Zhao Shi sighed, this is a thigh that he finally hugs, and he has to do it well when his life has just improved a little.

This time, the wicked man has done it to the end, but he is really a little lacking in morality.

"Come on, don't be pretentious, I'll figure it out," Zhao Shi said to Zhou Xiang.

"If this thing is to last long, the scholar must be willing. Otherwise, it will be a disaster after all, or like that, you can wait for me to believe it."

Zhou Xiang patted Zhao Shi on the shoulder when he heard Daxi and said, "I knew that you would have a way, and if you need any need for the ward, I will say."

The next day, Zhao Shi found a jailer, explained the rhetoric, and the two of them pretended to pass by the door of the scholar's cell, Zhao Shi slightly amplified his voice and said:

"I heard that the sentence surnamed Liu has been handed down, and the mine has been flowing for three years, and it is still a deep well 800 miles away."

"Ah, that's enough to come back alive," the other party said according to the routine.

"Three years? If you can survive a month, I will lose you, isn't this person from the Liu family? Why don't you find a pipe belt and send some silver, one or two hundred taels can save your life," Zhao Shi continued.

The jailer continued: "The Liu family has long been gone, I heard his little lady say that his family is also a broken family, how can there be silver, but you said that if his delicate little lady is holding the thigh of the pipe belt, she is shedding two or three tears, can the pipe belt resist?" ”。

Zhao Shi smiled and said: "It's a pity that the pipe belt is not good, if you hug me naked, I can't resist it."

"It's just you, is the hair growing underneath? People are not big, and their hearts are not small," the two of them said and walked away.

When he came back after a while, the scholar jumped over and shouted eagerly through the fence: "Little brother stay, little brother stays",

Zhao Shi stopped and turned his head and asked, "What are you doing?" ”

The scholar had a smile on his face: "Little brother, is my case really sentenced?" ”

Zhao Shi said with a cold face: "Can that still be fake?" The official document has come down in a few days."

The scholar immediately cried with a sad face, "It's not really three years of mining."

"That's right, that is, if you still want to live, hurry up and make the silver move," Zhao Shi finished raising his legs to leave,

"Little brother slow down, little brother stays"

The scholar said eagerly: "Little brother, can you help me talk about it in front of the pipe belt?"

"I" Zhao Shi pointed to himself:

"What am I doing, let me tell you",

"Where, ......," said the scholar after a while:

"Then beg the little brother to go to my house, let me come to the hall, my house lives..., please little brother, as soon as possible, it must be as soon as possible, and there will be a reward in the future."

Zhao Shi nodded and should come down.

After getting off duty, Zhao Shi went to the scholar's house. The little lady of the Liu family made a cup of tea for Zhao Shi, and the little lady's eyebrows were bright, and she could see that the days were more moisturized than before.

"Your father-in-law's case has been sentenced, and he will be in the mine for three years."

The little lady of the Liu family turned pale when she heard this, and she almost didn't fall to the ground.

Zhao Shi continued: "Don't worry, Guan Tie has already gone to find the prince, don't worry, Guan Tie and the prince have a deep relationship, most of them are fine, and they should be released in a few days."

But this is what I told you privately, everything has a case, there is no complete guarantee, you don't show your mouth first"

The little lady of the Liu family turned sad into joy, and Zhao Shi continued:

"What will you do when this man comes out? This house is owned by your father-in-law as a clerk's office, and this position must be gone, but are you ready to go back to Liu's house? ”。

The happy face of the little lady of the Liu family immediately collapsed, and tears fell without money:

"The Liu family lost money and lost face again this time, and the prince cut off the official errand again, where will he support us, and he can only farm when he goes back.

It's nothing for me to suffer a little, I can't carry it on my shoulders but my hands, my heart is still high, and I will never do these next jobs."

Zhao Shi didn't say anything, and the little lady continued to cry:

"My father-in-law has been clever since he was a child, so even though he is a side branch, he is also offered to study. Thinking that there is a future in the future, it is not easy for the clan to be oppressed, so when you go back, the concubine's body will not be turned over in turn, so it is better to die clean."

Don't think about shortcomings, since I don't want to go back, I'll let the pipe band think of a way, there will always be another way out"

Zhao Shi said earnestly: "Your father-in-law may also hear the rumors, let you go, and you will go and see tomorrow." People get it back first, and then let the tube bring you a way out."

The little lady was grateful for her kindness.

The next day, Zhao Shi was on duty at night, and when he heard the jailer say that the little lady had come, he left crying and laughing.
