Chapter 67: Dressed in White
Chenyang County Prison.
This large prison is located near the county government and is a single building. Compared with the prison, the county prison is much simpler. Underneath the roof tiles is the cell.
Not only bright, but also airy. There were no officials to watch over them, only a few prisoners were in charge of watching.
The big prison in a small county town is usually not of much use. So the rooms are only forty or fifty, and the rooms are almost full at the moment.
The Wang family has more than 30 people, all of whom live here.
The Wang family is in a miserable situation.
Wang Ruyi, the old lady in charge of the Wang family, is accused of corruption, and the amount is still very large. If it is heavy, it will be beheaded, and if it is light, it will be exiled.
The male and female dependents of the Wang family, the male family is estimated to be exiled, and the female dependents and young children will be confiscated into the official palace as slaves and maids.
The Wang family has been an official eunuch for generations, and of course this end is very miserable.
However, Wang Ruyi has been a county magistrate in the county for many years, and he still has a little incense. Looking at the cell bosses, the prison people all took some care of Wang Ruyi, and there was a pot of wine and meat for the meal.
But the others are miserable.
A bowl of rice, a bowl of pickle soup, and two meals a day. It was morning at the moment, and the prisoners brought food and gave the Wang family old snacks.
Liu Qiuqiu was locked up with his son Tiger Head, wearing prison clothes, and his unkempt face was very pitiful. This meal can be eaten with willow balls, but the tiger head is not used to it.
Not only is I not used to eating, but I also have diarrhea when I eat it. At this moment, he was even more crying, holding Liu Qiuqiu's legs, and shouted: "Mother, mother, I want to eat millet porridge, I want to eat millet porridge." ”
"The tiger is good, the tiger is good. Wait for my mother to make millet porridge for you. Liu Qiuqiu picked up the tiger's head in fear, patted the tiger's back, and comforted him softly.
The woman who had just killed her husband was again imprisoned in the prison. After the verdict, I am afraid that I will be sold as slaves and maids. Liuqiu is soft by nature, and it is even more overwhelming.
Orphans and widows, huddled together, very pitiful.
.............
At noon, the sun is shining. On this hot day, Chen Yang County seems to be a hot pot, boiling to a boil. Zhang Ning was dressed in white, tied with a scarf on his head, wearing a lancet, riding a black horse, stepping on a stirrup made of rotten silver, and came to the outside of Chenyang County.
It was not easy to ride a horse when entering the county, so Zhang Ning turned over and dismounted and owed the horse to walk. On the way, he inquired about the location of the county office, and Zhang Ning came to the outside of the county office.
There are a few officials on duty outside the county office, all of them are lazy and look unenergetic.
"What are you doing?" a servant looked at Zhang Ning lazily.
Zhang Ning plucked a strand of hair from his head and blew on it. The hair turned into a black dot and shot at a pillar outside the yamen with a thud.
With a "poof", the cylinder was shot in half, castration was endless, and the hair shot into the wall behind it, and a large hole appeared.
"I want to see your county order. Zhang Ning said lightly.
The officials were already stunned, and one of them even pinched his thigh, mistakenly thinking that he was dreaming. After a long time, one of the officials swallowed a mouthful of saliva, and then entered the county government with a stream of urine.
The other officials looked at Zhang Ning with a look of fear.
Zhang Ning stood outside the door basking in the sun with an indifferent face, and soon after, a sound of footsteps sounded. Zhang Zichao walked out of the yamen.
He was wearing a civilian dress, slightly disheveled, and had a woman's scent on his body. He was still messing with Mrs. Hu just now, and as soon as he heard the report from the officials, he immediately rushed out.
When he saw Zhang Ning, he suddenly gasped when he saw the movement of Zhang Ning's hair. He was much more knowledgeable than the officials, and knew that the people who came were extraordinary.
It is very likely to be a legendary master of the Heavenly Realm.
"Zhang Zichao, the county commander of Chenyang County, I don't know what advice this senior has?" Zhang Zichao said extremely humbly, and bowed his hand.
"Did you arrest the Wang family?" Zhang Ning asked lightly.
"Yes. Zhang Zichao's heart was suddenly shocked, and he thought, is this the legendary kick to the iron plate? This seemingly ordinary Wang family is actually blessed by a master of the Heavenly Realm?
"Is it true that Wang Ruyi is corrupt?" Zhang Ning asked again.
"Really. Zhang Zichao said stiffly. In fact, Wang Ruyi was not wronged in this matter, this old guy is an old fritter, and he is really greedy a lot.
"I don't ask about the Wang family. Wang Miaochun's wife, Liu, is my relative, and you let them go. Zhang Ning said.
"Well said. Zhang Zichao hurriedly said.
"Chen Jin, you immediately go to the back office and call the two maidservants, and then the Liu family comes out. Let the maid serve to bathe and change clothes, so that she can be entertained. ”
Zhang Zichao hurriedly called a servant and said.
"Thank you. Seeing that Zhang Zichao was so knowledgeable, Zhang Ning's face softened a little, and he said politely.
Zhang Zichao took the opportunity to say: "It will take a while to take out the Liu family, and the seniors should come in to rest for a while." ”
Zhang Ning nodded and said, "Okay." Feed me some more good stuff for this horse. Zhang Zichao hurriedly agreed, and then led Zhang Ning into the back office.
After entering the lobby of the back office, Zhang Zichao asked people to serve tea, and he confessed his guilt and went to find Mrs. Hu.
Soon after, Zhang Zichao and Mrs. Hu came to the lobby and knelt down towards Zhang Ning, and Mrs. Hu took out a silver ticket from her sleeve and presented it.
"What does this mean?" asked Zhang Ning rather strangely.
Mrs. Hu was a little apprehensive and said, "Go back to the words of your predecessors." The two of us are the disciples of the lord of the overseas pinnacle city, Xiaoyaohou, and are responsible for collecting the belongings. The Wang family is indeed corrupt, but Wang Miaochun, the third man of the Wang family, was indeed killed by us in a conspiracy. This silver ticket is the entire property of the Wang family, a total of one million taels of silver. ”
"We know the depth of sin. The seniors can kill us, but please don't delve into the matter. Zhang Zichao was also very frightened.
Sooner or later, this thing will go through the cracks.
This kicks to the iron plate, and there is always a price.
Zhang Zichao discussed with Mrs. Hu a little, and decided to make peace with him. The other party is a Heaven Realm master, and they don't have any power to resist.
It's a pleasure to die. As for the problem of the old and young in the family after the death of the two, naturally there are people from the Peerless City to take care of them.
Zhang Ning frowned slightly, he didn't expect this matter to be related to the Peerless City. Intuition told Zhang Ning that there must be some trouble after this incident.
It's not that I'm afraid of retaliation from the Peerless City.
Because Zhang Ning didn't plan to kill Zhang Zichao, Mrs. Hu. Wang Miaochun is so annoying, Zhang Ning will not avenge that guy.
"I took the money. As for the affairs of the Wang family, I said that I would not ask. So you don't have to worry too much. Zhang Ning shook his head and said.
Zhang Zichao and Mrs. Hu were a little surprised, Zhang Ning claimed to be related to the Liu family, which killed someone's husband, but the other party did not pursue it.
In addition to surprise, there is more ecstasy.
"Thank you, thank you. Zhang Zichao and Mrs. Hu hurriedly thanked him.
