Chapter Ninety-One: The Wind of the Gentleman, the Mountains Are High and the Waters Are Long (I)
The Wind of the Gentleman, the Mountains and the Waters (Middle)
Xu Changan was in prison in Dali Temple, sitting in a daze every day, and he didn't communicate with people, just hoping that day would come soon.
He did not have Chai Xintong's knowledge, nor did he teach the world and change the thinking of the people in the world. However, most of the prisoners here were students of Chai Xintong at the beginning, and they all heard about the relationship between Xu Changan and Chai Xintong, and they all called Mr. one by one in prison.
Xu Changan couldn't stop them, it should be said that he didn't bother to stop them.
A shrill voice dragged on and reached Xu Changan's ears.
Outside the prison, he remembered the voice of the decree, Xu Changan didn't care, anyway, the decree was not announced to him.
After a while, a group of eunuchs came to Xu Changan's prison. Xu Changan looked at it intently, it turned out to be an old acquaintance, Hao Lianying, who almost killed him for meritorious service in Yuezhou City.
Today's Hao Lianying is a little fatter than two years ago, the folds on her face are stacked, and her face is much whiter than before.
When he saw Xu Chang'an, he first smiled awkwardly, and then asked people to open the prison gate and said to Xu Chang'an: "Little Marquis, I didn't expect to see you again every two years, but I met here." β
Two years ago, Xu Changan has long forgotten it, and now when he sees Hao Lianying, he only feels that the world is changeable.
"It seems that my father-in-law is doing quite well. β
Hao Lianying replied with a faint smile: "In the past two years, I have been a palm print eunuch in the Huanyi Bureau, and I have been idle, so there is no big deal. People, once you think less, you will be easy to get fat. β
When Xu Changan heard this, he didn't understand what he meant, and thought that Hao Lianying was still complaining because of what happened back then.
"Father-in-law Hao, in fact, sometimes, it's not bad to be plain and safe......"
Before Xu Changan finished speaking, Hao Lianying hurriedly said, "Little Marquis, you misunderstood. Thank you, old slave. If it weren't for that kind of thing, how would I know that everything I had was illusory, and the woman ran away and took my silver taels. From that day on, I saw through it, I am a eunuch, what do I pursue, it is better to live a good life. β
Xu Changan looked at his appearance, saw the relief and flatness in his eyes, and was also happy for this old eunuch.
"Our family, now there is no psychological pressure, and we have opened a private school in the east corner of the city, and children who can't afford to study can go. β
When Xu Changan heard this, he was also sincerely happy for him, and he didn't know what to say for a while.
"Come on, we're here, we have something to do. Hao Lianying sighed and then said.
"If you have any grievances, then speak up, there is no need to confess. You are an old slave and still know that the person who was able to protect others with his life for the sake of his promise is definitely not a murderer. β
Xu Changan looked at him and smiled and shook his head.
"The truth is not so important, my father-in-law should not have come here to persuade me, right?"
"Hey!" Hao Lianying sighed again, hurry
He said: "Of course not, before, I heard that you confessed your sins. So what those people were trying to do, the bus stopped reading. But now, with the delay in the verdict, the group of people instigated the people and began to exert pressure. So, Holy Emperor ......"
Xu Changan glanced out the window, his eyes were full of indifference.
"So Your Majesty meant to ask the old slave to bring some new clothes. You are a little marquis, even if you are on the road, you have to be particular and decent. Moreover, your business is all the gift of the prince. β
"There is Father-in-law Lao. Xu Changan didn't look back, he knew early on that if he confessed his guilt, the end would definitely be death. Killing the court officials, as long as you admit it, even if there are a hundred reasons, you can't escape death.
However, he chose to confess his guilt, didn't he just want to die?
Hao Lianying shook his head, he always hoped that Xu Changan would repentance and retract his confession, but now it seems that he has made up his mind and is bent on death.
"Little Cuizi, come in and serve the adults to change their clothes. With that, he walked out.
A little eunuch walked in, holding a newly made Hou Ye costume for him, and as a Hou Ye, he naturally couldn't go to the big willow tree execution ground. Generally speaking, high-ranking officials or nobles will not go to the execution ground, all to keep a decent place.
The men are generally poisoned wine, and the women are all three-foot white silk.
The little eunuch was carrying new clothes, Xu Changan didn't look at him, he knew that his own poisonous wine would come, Xu Changan said lightly: "Let it go, you don't need to wait." β
The little eunuch stood behind Xu Changan, gritted his teeth and shouted, "Brother Xu." β
When Xu Changan heard this voice, he suddenly turned his head and saw Cui Wei wearing the costume of a little eunuch.
"You ......"
"It's me, Brother Xu, I found someone to get in. Cui Wei looked at Xu Changan, his eyes full of tears.
"What are you doing here?"
When Cui Wei heard Xu Changan ask, he remembered his purpose, and hurriedly told him how he got the letter and the content of the letter.
He originally thought that Xu Changan would be angry, unwilling, and complaining.
What Cui Wei didn't expect was that there was only a hint of surprise in Xu Changan's eyes, and then he regained his indifference.
"Brother Xu, aren't you angry?"
Xu Changan looked at him and smiled slightly: "What's there to be angry about, I already knew that I didn't do this." β
"Then you can get out of prison?"
Cui Wei is still young after all, and he is a little naΓ―ve to want to rescue Xu Changan.
Xu Changan squatted first, hugged his arms, and said seriously: "Cui Wei, do you think this world is good?"
Cui Wei nodded, although he has suffered a lot and suffered a lot, he still thinks that this world is very good.
There are wicked and bad people, there are sorrows and joys, there are laughter and tears. This is a living world, which carries the memories of too many people, the lives of too many people. Only in this way will the world appear colorful
Color.
"Of course, it's good that most people can survive now, have joys and sorrows, and not be unable to live. β
Xu Changan smiled, rubbed his head and said, "The world is so good, I couldn't bear it." β
"What are you reluctant to?" Cui Wei's eyes widened, a little unclear.
Xu Changan ignored him, patted him on the shoulder and said, "What if...... I'm talking about what if......"
Xu Changan said, raised his head, and faced the window.
Cui Wei suddenly felt that Xu Changan's body was covered with a layer of light.
......
Cui Wei changed his clothes, Cheng Baiyi and Cheng Baili searched several times, but they didn't find anything else.
Cheng Baiyi thought about it, and threw the clothes in the corner of the room.
Cheng Baiyi has been considerate of Mei Ruolan recently, and has been taking care of Mei Ruolan's emotions. Since she learned that her father was dead, Mei Ruolan knew for the first time what it was like to be loved by someone.
She suddenly found that she gradually relied on Cheng Baiyi, and when she thought of Cheng Baiyi, her face was a little hot.
These days, as a daughter, she has learned to do laundry, cook, and a good wife and mother, and she has learned it all during this time.
Seeing Cheng Baiyi and Cheng Baili leaving, she walked into Cheng Baiyi's room and helped him clean up his dirty clothes.
Suddenly, she caught a glimpse of Cui Wei's clothes in the corner.
Mei Ruolan saw the clothes in the corner of the wall and walked over, took them in her hands, and suddenly felt that something was wrong.
She was familiar with the material of this dress, but how to feel it thicker. And this kind of clothing has always been made of one layer of material, and there is no such thing as using two layers of material to make clothes.
Mei Ruolan dismantled Cui Wei's clothes and found a silk.
When she saw the contents of the silk, she immediately froze in place as if she had been struck by lightning.
Cheng Baiyi and Cheng Baili searched for this dress, and they also found that the dress had a sandwich, but after rubbing it, they didn't find any paper. They were not familiar with the fabric of the clothes, and Cui Wei took off his clothes happily, so the two did not take them apart.
They always thought that this letter must have been written on paper, and Cui Wei must have found someone else to send it to Chang'an, so they didn't care.
But they didn't expect that this letter was written by Mei Linkai in silk.
Mei Ruolan saw the familiar notes on the silk and finally knew everything.
Eventually, she gritted her teeth and wanted to give herself a slap.
It turned out that Mei Antai was not her brother. It turned out that his father had noticed the collusion between Aunt Long and Confucius Temple, and wanted to blame Xu Changan......;
During this time, he naturally knew that Cheng Baiyi belonged to Confucius Temple.
Mei Ruolan threw her clothes on the ground, kicked over the basin, and ran out.
......
On this day, the drum of grievances in front of the gate of the Criminal Department was sounded again!
