Chapter 6 Rumors

(Today's word count is small, please post it too. I'll finish it tomorrow. Let's read it together tomorrow)

"Does the child have a case?" Wu Zhi turned around and asked Xu Bingzhe.

Xu Bingzhe shook his head and said, "There is no relatives at home, so he followed his mother to prison."

Wu Zhi nodded slightly, Xu Bingzhe was so quick-witted, and immediately ordered the Semi-Level: "Take this child to take him to wash up, go to the back hall, and change into my wife's clothes! Go quickly and go!"

The little girl called the mistress saw the approaching of the festival level and hid behind her mother quickly and did not dare to show up. If the festival level had already stepped forward and pushed the female prisoner away and pulled her out, but how could he dare to act rashly in front of the prefect? ​​Not to mention that there is a big man who cannot even reach the prefect.

He squeezed out a smile and said in a gentle voice: "Missan'er, don't be afraid, I'll take you to change into beautiful new clothes..."

The semi-level tone sounded extremely strange, and Xu Bingzhe frowned and did not dare to attack in front of the noble king.

Yuanyuan ran over, whispered something, and pulled Xiaosan'er out. Xiaosan'er shrank behind Yuanyuan and walked out of the prison cell step by step. Yuanyuan whispered a few more words in Xiaosan'er's ear before saying to Jiejia: "Call the maid to help Xiaosan wash. If you dare to peek, I will ask my uncle to beat you hard."

The Semi-level smiled and said, "I dare not, how dare I offend the lady's friend, Miss, please don't worry."

To flatter the noble king? He can't stand it. It's a great honor to be able to say a few words to the little aunt in front of him and serve him very well. In the future, he said that he was the niece of the noble king and his old mansion. Who in Kaifeng Mansion has such a blessing?

Xu Bingzhe smiled and came over and bowed slightly, saying, "Don't worry, you won't feel wronged that child."

Yuanyuan nodded slightly, but Wu Zhi laughed secretly. Even though the mistress was about the same age as Yuanyuan, she looked dry and thin and was completely a stunted child. Who would peek at her? Yuanyuan is also funny.

The mistress took the mistress out with a smile. The mistress looked back at Yuanyuan from time to time. Yuanyuan nodded to her and said, "Don't be afraid! You will see me again in a while."

Wu Zhi smiled and touched Yuanyuan's little head. Yuanyuan stuck out his tongue and got into Wu Zhi's arms a little embarrassed.

Xu Bingzhe hesitated for a moment, and then said with some temptation: "Qiansui, the criminal Pan Qiaoyun is crying in prison every day, which shows that she is deeply regretful. Can she be resigned?"

Wu Zhiqi said, "Pan Qiaoyun? Who is it?" He immediately understood that the female prisoner was talking about, but his name sounded a little familiar.

"What crime did she commit?" Wu Zhi asked.

Xu Bingzhe said: "I committed adultery with a monk. Later, the monk killed his husband Yang Xiong. The monk had been beheaded and she was guilty of adultery."

Wu Zhi suddenly felt relieved when he heard "Yang Xiong". It turned out that it was her. It was Shi Xiu and Yang Xiong who took her life. It seemed that Shi Xiu followed him, which made Yang Xiong so tired that he sacrificed his life.

Looking at Pan Qiaoyun who was kneeling there and did not dare to look up slightly, Wu Zhi shook his head and said, "How can the serious crime of adultery be reincarnated?" He was a little contempt, so he was too lazy to say more.

Seeing that Wu Zhi looked bad, Xu Bingzhe regretted it very much, so he flattered the horse on the leg, and quickly changed his words and said it was true.

"You don't have to make things difficult for her." Wu Zhi knew that if he didn't explain, he was afraid that Xu Bingzhe would vent his anger when he left.

Xu Bingzhe should be.

Wu Zhi then took Yuanyuan's hand and went to the outsider. Xu Bingzhe breathed a sigh of relief. The smell in the cell was really bad, but the noble king didn't say anything, so how could he dare to show disgust?

When the female prisoner saw everyone leaving, she let out a long breath and sat down slowly...

Wu Zhi and others left the cell. Xu Bingzhe originally wanted to invite Wu Zhi to the back yamen to sit down, but when Wu Zhi pulled Yuanyuan and asked about his questions, he had to stand by.

After a while, the minister led Xiaosaner along the bluestone road in the front hall. Xiaosaner was clean and looked pretty, but she was too thin. She was dressed in a long silk jacket on her body, which was a clothing for the governor's wife. She was cut short and barely worn on her body, making her look even more skinny.

The little San'er looked at everyone with fear, and stood beside Yuanyuan with fear, holding Yuanyuan's hand, as if she could feel safe only by Yuanyuan's side.

Wu Zhi and his group left Kaifeng Mansion. The guards outside the mansion had already prepared carriages and horses. Yuanyuan pulled Xiaosaner into the carriage. Under the respect of Xu Bingzhe and his yamen runners of Kaifeng, the carriage slowly set off.

In the carriage, Xiaosaner looked at the luxurious decorations in the car curiously, but when he saw Wu Zhi's gaze, he still shrank behind Yuanyuan. Yuanyuan smiled and said, "Don't be afraid of Xiaosaner, uncle is a good person, you will never have to go back to prison again in the future."

The little San'er opened her mouth to talk, looked at Wu Zhi, and closed her mouth again.

Wu Zhi closed his eyes slightly to rest, and listened to Yuanyuan chattering and sighing in his heart, afraid that this was her first "friend", no wonder she was so excited.

After a long time, Xiao Saner probably thought Wu Zhi had fallen asleep and became more courageous. She whispered: "Yuanyuan, is your uncle a high-ranking official?"

Yuanyuan said proudly: "Of course, he is the biggest official in the world."

Wu Zhi heard Yuanyuan's child's words for the first time, and it was funny, but it was easy to understand. If he told Xiaosaner that he was a noble king, a grand master, etc., Xiaosaner would definitely not understand it.

"Then, are there any senior officials at the semi-level? "The mistress asked hesitantly.

Wu Zhi gritted his teeth and then refused to speak out to scold the little guy.

Yuan Yuan giggled and said, "Even the total ranks of the Song Dynasty are combined, they can't compare to one of my uncle's little fingers."

"Brave... The adults at the level of the season are so fierce, we are all afraid of him to death. How can there be a person who is much better than the adults at the level of the season." Xiaosan'er shook her head and looked disbelief.

Yuanyuan smiled and said, "Do you want to call him here to kowtow a few times?"

The little Saner waved his hands repeatedly: "No, I don't want to see him again."

Yuanyuan laughed a few times and stopped arguing with her.

After a while, the little San'er sighed and said, "It's good that your uncle is so powerful. You can rescue my nanny at that time..."

Yuanyuan held her hand and whispered: "If you do something wrong, you should be punished. Come and see her more. You can bring more delicious food to your mother. Isn't it better than accompanying her to suffer in prison?"

The little San'er nodded silently, Yuan Yuan held her in her arms, and there was no sound in the carriage...

...

The next day, Xu Bingzhe, the governor of Daming Prefecture, came to visit early in the morning. Wu Zhi summoned him in the Silver Palace. After a few words, Xu Bingzhe hesitated and talked about Master Zhishen. When the official in the morning, he found that Zhishen was still sitting cross-legged like yesterday and ignored him. The official felt that it was inappropriate. He went into the cell to find him breathing, and then he realized that Lu Zhishen had passed away.

Xu Bingzhe was trembling when he spoke, for fear that the noble king would be furious, so he would vent his anger on himself without asking any questions. To put it bluntly, how could a strong man be killed overnight in prison? Even Xu Bingzhe didn't believe it. He tortured several night patrol officials in the morning, but the confessions were not bad. Xu Bingzhe immediately ordered the prisoners to be imprisoned and rushed to the royal palace to collect the crime.

After hearing this, Wu Zhi was silent for a long time before instructing Xu Bingzhe to send Master Zhishen's body to Daxiangguo Temple. As for the night patrol, he would not be embarrassed.

Seeing that Wu Zhi looked sad and spoke kindly, Xu Bingzhe was relieved and blamed himself for a long time before saying goodbye and leaving.

Not to mention how Wu Zhi handled Zhishen's death, he said that in the past few days, a rumor suddenly broke out in the capital, that is, Princess Roufu had an affair with a monk from Xiangguo Temple. Not only did they date repeatedly in Xiangguo Temple, they were also caught by a tyrant official who did not know the identity of the two and were arrested in Kaifeng Prison. The monk committed suicide due to the crime, and Princess Roufu was secretly sent to the palace. As for Princess Roufu, who happened to live in the same cell with a woman who had an affair with a monk a few years ago, they also added seasonings to this big meat dish.

The news became more and more intense, and later everyone said it so vividly, as if they had seen it with their own eyes, and the streets and alleys were talking about Princess Roufu's romantic affairs everywhere.
