Volume 1, Chapter 130 of the Capital of Wisdom, it is difficult to tolerate humility
"Stop!" suddenly came from outside the cell door.
"Wang ...... O king, we are not ...... Are you cleaning up the prisoners......" The two jailers saw the cell head standing outside the door, and hurriedly replied. While they were talking, they also pretended to help Yao Zibei get dressed.
"Get out of here!" the king rebuked outside.
The two jailers hurriedly exited death row and locked the cell door again.
The head of the Wang cell scolded again: "People are good at a woman, even if they kill someone, you two dogs, you can't let people go innocently!"
The jailer licked his face and smiled: "Wangtou, my brother is really looking at this girl's body! This is a person who is dying, and the brothers also want her to have a good taste of a man before she dies, and also tell her not to live in vain, haha!"
The head of the Wang cell snorted coldly: "This female prisoner will be executed the day after tomorrow, you two can do it, don't go to harm others! I really want to find a girl, there are some in Cuiyun Building! You must know that before a person is beheaded, it is necessary to verify the correct body." When the time comes, if you let Master Cheng know that you have done these pickled things, see that his old man will not pick up a layer of your skin!"
The two jailers hurriedly nodded yes, and they said in their hearts that if you don't talk about it, how will Cheng Shilang know what our brother has done. But at this time, seeing that the king was so serious, they naturally didn't dare to take any more risks and steal joy......
This night, Yao Zibei was lying on death row, physically and mentally painful, grieving to death, but in the end, no one came to violate her again.
On the second night, the night of February 14, an "uninvited guest" came to the prison of the Criminal Department. The man had a sharp beak and monkey cheeks, and he looked strange, and he was an old man in the criminal department. He now holds a plate with a Fluttershy and a spoon on it, and heads straight to the death row where Yao Zibei is being held.
That preoccupation was naturally ordered by Xiao Yihong to take Yao Zibei's eyes and hand them over to the head of the Zhao Mansion waiting outside the gate of the Criminal Department.
According to Zhao Yong's temperament, he was unwilling to agree to his son's unreasonable request. Zhao Xiaogang was forced to die on a hunger strike, and his wife was crying and shouting beside him. Zhao Yong had no choice but to find Xiao Yihong, the secretary of the Criminal Department.
For the sake of eight thousand taels of silver, Lord Xiao waved his hand and said that this matter was easy to do. Under Xiao Yihong's orders, Na Zuo took advantage of the dead of night to secretly come to Yao Zibei's death row......
Poor Yao Zibei, she is a smart and talented woman. She was born in Baoying, Yangzhou, although her family was poor since she was a child, she likes to read, and she has great ambitions in her heart. When her parents saw that she knew how to read and etiquette, they were also relieved and happy. As long as Zibei is happy in her heart, her parents have always been dependent on her temperament. It's just that the clan elders of the Yao family all know that women can't participate in the scientific examination, and when they see her reading books all day long, they all sigh that a woman's lack of talent is virtue, and they just keep persuading her to learn more about knitting women's red, cooking on fire, and farming.
When Yao Zibei was seventeen years old, the people who came to be matchmakers from all over the world had already broken through the threshold of her family. However, she has a high vision, but she can't look at any ordinary peasant children
Eyes. She stayed in the boudoir, did not marry for a long time, and never thought that her beautiful name had alarmed the county's famous wealth advocate Wanbao. That Zhang Wanbao has already married more than a dozen concubines in his family, and he is still thinking about taking Yao Zibei as a concubine again.
Yao Zibei heard that Zhang Wanbao was a fat and bald man in his fifties, so he naturally preferred to die rather than marry his concubine. Helplessly, the Zhang Wanbao family has a huge amount of money, known as the richest man in Baoying, if he refuses to agree to the Zhang family's proposal, he is afraid that he will not be able to stay in the realm of Baoying. Yao Zibei's parents had to be ruthless, packed up all the softness, took Zibei overnight, left Baoying, went hundreds of miles north, came to Xuchang Mansion in Huaiyang Road, and defected to a distant relative of the clan.
In Xuchang, the Yao family was finally able to settle down, but unexpectedly, there was a sudden drought, and after half a year, the food was eaten up, and the three Yao family had to follow everyone to Xuchang City for help. Yao Zibei's parents, on the way to escape the famine, couldn't stand the hunger and cold, and both died of illness.
Yao Zibei suddenly lost his parents and suddenly felt lonely. She's just an eighteen-year-old girl after all. She has always kept in mind what the book says, filial piety comes first, and in order to bury her parents, she did not hesitate to sell herself to Zhang Butcher in the market.
But she is also the most stubborn girl, and she would rather die than violate the truth in her heart. Therefore, no matter whether those people were pulling the strings for her, or Zhang Butcher wanted to sell her to others, as soon as she heard that she was being accepted as a concubine, she categorically refused.
But stubbornness is stubbornness, how can she know how many hardships and pains there are in this world? When Zhang Butcher's machete reached the root of her thigh, she was so frightened that her eyes were closed, and she only hated why she had come to this world......
Fortunately, on that day, Brother Xu, who suddenly appeared, rescued her from the sea of suffering.
When she felt the most desperate, it was Brother Xu who gave her all her hope, courage, joy and dreams again......
It's a pity that the time with Brother Xu is too short. That night, they slept in the mountains, and in her sleep, she couldn't help but fall into his arms......
When Xu Ke slowly pushed her away, in fact, she had quietly woken up. She herself didn't expect that she would suddenly lean into Brother Xu's arms. At that time, she was inexplicably ashamed in her heart, but she pretended to be asleep and didn't know.
......
At this time, Yao Zibei was lying on death row in the Criminal Department, but he suddenly remembered the night he spent in the mountains with Xu Ke. She only thought about it for a moment, and a hint of blush appeared on her face......
Until now, she recalled the scene of sleeping in the mountains that night, and she still couldn't help but feel shy in her heart......
No matter how many ambitions the young Yao Zibei had in her heart, she only had one dream at this time. That is to be able to stay by her brother Xu's side, even if it is just to be one of his maids, wash his clothes, cook, clean his room, and tidy up his study...... As long as she can see his tall figure every day and hear his hearty laughter, she will feel enough in her heart!
It's a pity that it's such a simple and humble dream, and God still can't satisfy him.
So far
, it's all late......
The servant put down the plate and fumbled for a long time, until he finally found the key to the death row that he had asked the jailer to come. He inserted the key into the keyhole and gently opened the cell door.
He bent down to pick up the plate, but he was kicked from behind and knocked him to the ground.
"You're looking for death!" he got up, and was about to get angry, when he saw the person who kicked him, he suddenly changed to a smile and said, "Wang...... O king, you haven't gone to sleep at such a late hour?"
"Monkey Liu, what are you doing here, and what are you trying to do badly?" said the head of the Wang cell.
"I didn't ...... No, I'm leaving...... Next time, I'll be the east, worry-free, and invite Wang Tou to drink!" The criminal department who was called "Liu Monkey" saw that Wang Prison was here, and knew that things could not be done, so he hurriedly picked up the plate and ran out quickly.
Seeing the back of Liu Monkey in the distance, Wang Cell Boss glanced at Yao Zibei inside, couldn't help but sigh, shook his head, and locked the cell door again.
It turned out that Cheng Kezhong, the servant of the Criminal Department, although he saw that Xiao Yihong's case was justified and could not be overturned for a while, but after all, he knew that Yao Zibei was wronged. He was sure that the guards in the cell would not be honest. In order to prevent the girl from suffering before she died, he secretly asked the head of the Wang cell to take care of the death row for a long time, but there was really no way to keep Yao Zibei's innocence.
The man who was called "Liu Monkey" was actually surnamed Liu Minghou, and he had been in the post-mortem industry in the Criminal Department for more than 20 years. Just because of his slender body and sharp-beaked monkey gills, he was called "Liu Monkey". After Liu Hou left the prison of the Criminal Department, in desperation, he had to go to the morgue again, find an ownerless dead body, pluck out two eyeballs from his eye sockets, put them in a dish, walked outside the gate of the Criminal Department, and handed them over to the head of the Zhao Mansion.
When the manager saw these two "living" eyes, he immediately did not dare to look at them again, and hurriedly covered them with a white cloth. Naturally, he couldn't tell whether the eyeballs were Yao Zibei's, so he hurriedly took the plate and went back to Zhao's mansion to resume his life......
However, that Zhao Yong, as a soldier in the army, had been on the battlefield to kill the enemy, so he naturally knew at a glance that it was not a living person's eyes. In order to please his son, he ordered someone to slaughter a live chicken and dripped some chicken blood on his eyes, so that the chief manager took the plate and took it to Zhao Xiaogang to "see".
Zhao Xiaogang held up the plate and carefully stroked the two "bloody" eyeballs in the plate. After all, he was blind, and between the tentacles, he only felt that his eyes were soft, and there was a bloody breath on his face, and he believed it immediately.
The manager of the Zhao Mansion saw that Zhao Xiaogang had touched his eyeballs for a long time, and suddenly pinched them hard, kneaded the two eyeballs to pieces, and threw them to the ground, desperately stepping on them with his feet, laughing and crying bitterly in his mouth, until finally, Zhao Gongzi had already scolded so much that he had no strength, and then gradually stopped......
Finally, Zhao Xiaogang stopped going on a hunger strike and was willing to eat.
And Yao Zibei, who was imprisoned on death row, although her eyes were saved, what was waiting for her was still beheaded by the executioner on the court of justice.
