After separating from Huarong, Pang He and Hu Sanniang hurried to Cangzhou, in front of the gate of Cangzhou City, there were several officers and soldiers who were investigating, Pang He and Hu Sanniang naturally walked into the city, Pang He saw that Cangzhou City basically did not change: "It's a pity, senior brother can't come now!"

Hu Sanniang said: "The tattoo on his face is easy to find, what are we going to do now?"

Pang He thought for a while and said, "Let's go to the prison first to see how the Chai officials are doing now." Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 ｉｎfo”

Hu Sanniang said worriedly: "Let's go to the heavenly prison to see the Chai officials, will they visit us, I'm afraid this won't work, right?"

Pang He said with a smile: "We go in like this, of course it won't work, but we can go in another way, we visit the prison, and we don't have to name and say that it is a big official who visited Chai Jin, we just need to go and say that we are going to visit Chai Jin, and it is strange not to be arrested." Let's just find a prisoner to visit, isn't that okay, even if we don't see Chai Daguan, we can still find out some of the prison situation in Cangzhou. ”

Hu Sanniang patted her head: "This, why didn't I think of it, let's go over now!"

Pang He stopped: "You can't go now, let's go to the teahouse first." ”

Hu Sanniang looked at Pang He puzzled: "What are we going to do in the teahouse?"

Pang He still smiled: "Go, you'll know!"

In this way, Pang He took Hu Sanniang to a teahouse and sat down in a position with more people: "Little Er, serve tea!"

After waiting for tea, Pang He deliberately shouted loudly: "Lady, I heard that something big happened in Cangzhou City, and this Chai official seems to be locked up!"

Hu Sanniang didn't know which one Pang He was singing, so she was stunned and didn't know what to say, but several people around her came around, and one of them said: "This brother, it was already a few days ago, this Chai Jin is indeed pitiful, it is useless to have a death-free iron coupon in his hand, this is said to be an emperor, but whoever wants to die will die." ”

Pang He listened and asked: "So that's the case, our husband and wife just entered the city, and we saw several people in front of the city gate investigating, presumably because of this incident." ”

The man replied, "Who says no, now it is a visit to the prison, and it is also a lot of trouble, not only to ask for money, but also to ask this and that, man, you can't commit a crime, and this crime will cause him to suffer." ”

Pang He continued to ask, "It's enough to have someone in the prison guarded, why is it still like this?" How do you know that when you go to visit the prison and interrogate like this, how can someone like Chai Daguan be imprisoned in Cangzhou, isn't it going to be sent to the capital? ”

The man continued: "Of course I don't know, but he knows that when his son was pouring water at night, he accidentally splashed the officials, and he was locked up and beaten with twenty boards. This world, it's really chaotic, it's not intentional, it's just a splash, just apologize and apologize, don't you say?"

As the man spoke, he called the second child in the teahouse: "It's him, his son has been locked up in prison for several days!"

Xiao Er choked up and said, "Hey, don't talk about it, just blame my son for his miserable life, he committed them, and I don't know when I will be able to come out." In addition, when I go to visit, I either ask for money or ask this and that, how can I, an ordinary person, withstand such a toss. ”

Pang He said embarrassedly: "Then there is no solution to this matter, how are they going to release people?"

Xiao Er sobbed and said: "They want me to give two hundred taels of silver before they are willing to release people, I only have one or two silver this month, where can I find so much money." ”

Pang He asked, "Is that official injured?"

He just called Xiao Er over and said: "There was no injury, so I drenched it a little, and the injury, it was also his son's injury, they ran over and beat his son so much that he couldn't stand up, and asked his son for money, but he didn't have any money, so he took it away." ”

Pang He said angrily: "How are they!"

"Who said no, if you want to say that his son is also unlucky, but he met the most difficult one, you said that if he had a better temper, he would be beaten a few times and it would have passed. And I heard that that day, that person happened to be in a bad mood and was worried that he had nowhere to vent!"

Pang He sighed: "That uncle, if I give two hundred taels, will your son be able to get out of prison?"

Xiao Er said: "They said so, but I can't say for sure!"

Pang He thought for a while: "In this way, you tell me the details, let's go to the prison to see your son together, and then discuss with them how to save your son from prison." ”

Xiao Er knelt down with a puff: "Okay, good, thank you, thank you!"

Hu Sanniang finally knew why Pang He came to the teahouse at this time, the teahouse is a place where people gather, and many people drink tea here and talk about things. Pang He deliberately shouted just now, just to attract the attention of some good deeds and attract them over. In this way, you can find some breakthroughs, such as finding this old man this time. With the help of the uncle's information, it can be justified and will not be easily discovered.

Pang He picked up the old man and said, "No thanks, no thanks, this thing hasn't been done yet, uncle, you get up first." ”

Xiao Er gratefully told Pang He about what happened, Pang He also asked some detailed questions from time to time, and when the old man finished speaking, Pang He sorted it out by himself: "This way, tomorrow morning, we will meet here, and then, let's go to the prison together." ”

Xiao Er knelt down again: "Okay, okay! Thank you, thank you, thank you..."

Pang He grabbed his hand tightly and said, "Okay, don't thank you first, when your son comes out, it's not too late for you to thank me." ”

Walking out of the teahouse, Pang He and Hu Sanniang went to the Anlai Inn, and in the room, Hu Sanniang asked why they chose to be in the teahouse. Pang He explained with a smile: "It's very simple, there are many people there, and there are many people talking about things. If you want to receive information about some prisoners, the most direct way is to read the notice, but the notice at this time is not very credible, and we will get very little news from the bulletin. So at this point, we drain it. There is also a restaurant, those who can go to the restaurant are generally either rich or expensive, and occasionally some, it is also to please or ask for people, so they will not waste time on a stranger, so we can't go to the restaurant. Restaurants, taverns, either socializing or each having their own business or gathering. The rest, that is, the teahouse, is the most suitable, there will be some literati here, they will look at and listen to the news of the neighborhood, and some will need someone to accompany them to relieve their worries because they have not passed the exam. ”
