[69 Book Bar - www.] Han Liudie walked out of the Qian Mansion and came to the depressed streets. He passed through unfamiliar alleys one after another and stopped in front of a Yongan Pawnshop.
Looking at the carved jade pendant given by Ling Feng, Han Liudie thought to herself: "This jade pendant doesn't look like something from ordinary people. It must be very important to its owner. I'd better not take it seriously.
Please return it to that young master when you have time."
While putting away the jade pendant, Han Liudie took out the mandarin duck jade pendant that had been with her for many years. It was given to her by her mother when she was dying. Her sister also had an identical one.
Yes, I remember my mother told them that this mandarin duck jade pendant can only be given away to someone she really likes. But now she is going to pawn it in exchange for some money to visit her sister Han in Suzhou prison.
Flower Dance.
Although she felt reluctant to give up, in order to be able to see her sister, she did not care so much. Han Liudie strode into the pawn shop. When the shopkeeper in an orange hat saw a customer coming, he said enthusiastically with a busy look on his face.
: "Girl, what do you want to be?"
Han Liudie reluctantly placed the jade pendant on the counter and asked softly: "Shopkeeper, how much silver can I exchange for this Yuanyang jade pendant?"
"What about this?" The store manager took the Yuanyang jade pendant in his hand and looked at the jade's color, weight, and transparency. Then he squinted and said with a smile: "This jade pendant is just an ordinary jade pendant. I think it's worth five dollars."
Two pieces of silver."
"Five taels? Shopkeeper, look again, this is not ordinary jade, it is Lantian jade." Han Liudie hoped that the shopkeeper could raise the price a little more.
The shopkeeper glanced at Han Liudie and said quibly: "I know it's Lantian jade. I just said it wrong. So, it's ten taels of silver."
Unexpectedly, this mandarin duck jade pendant can only be exchanged for such a small amount of silver. Han Liudie frowned slightly and discussed: "Ten taels? Can it be higher? Is twenty taels okay?"
"Twenty taels?" The shopkeeper thought for a moment and said, "Okay, but we have agreed in advance that the time limit is three days. If you don't redeem it after three days, you will be dead."
Han Liudie couldn't help but said in surprise: "Three days? Isn't the current period only one month?"
"I'm only here for three days. Do you want to pawn it off? Anyway, my Yong'an Pawn Shop offers the highest price." The shopkeeper put on a stinking face, as if he was a dead pig not afraid of being scalded by boiling water. He just saw it right.
Han Liudie will definitely agree to it.
"Okay, I'll take it." Han Liudie nodded helplessly. She needed some silver to clear the way for the prison guards, so she couldn't delay any longer.
Seeing that Han Liudie still agreed, a smile flashed across the corner of the shopkeeper's mouth and he said: "San'er, quickly exchange twenty taels of silver for this girl."
Han Liudie walked out of the pawn shop with the twenty taels of silver and the pawn tickets in her bag. She turned back and took a deep look at Yong'an Pawn Shop, and said happily: "When I have money in the future, I will definitely redeem you.
,must!"
Although she said so, Han Liudie had no confidence in her heart. Three days was simply impossible. She shook her head and continued walking forward. She came all the way from Zhoushan City just to
Looking for my sister Han Huawu. Ever since they found out that their father Han Qingyun was beheaded, the two sisters have been living in a state of heartbreak and relying on each other. When we parted ways with her for the last time, I still remembered that night my sister Han Huawu said she must go.
Suzhou killed that dog official Liang Wentian to avenge his father. When Han Liudie woke up, her sister was no longer by her side.
When Han Liudie came here all the way from Zhoushan, her money had been basically exhausted. She found out from the people's mouths that a female assassin who assassinated the prefect of Suzhou was caught a while ago. She guessed that it must be her sister Han Hua.
Wu, so she must go to the prison in Suzhou to see if her sister was really arrested for assassinating the Suzhou prefect? Is she really locked up there?
Han Liudie also learned from the people's mouths that "the yamen gate faces south. If you have no money, don't come in." If you want to enter the prison in Suzhou to visit the prisoners, you can't get in without money, so she needs money to bribe the servant.
Yamen, I wonder if I can get these silver coins by selling my jewelry and jade pendants? As long as I can see my sister and make sure that she is safe, there will definitely be a way to rescue her. If that doesn't work, I will use a beauty trap to seduce the Suzhou magistrate.
He released his sister. Of course, these were all things for later. At least he had to make sure Han Huawu was safe first.
Han Liudie was only thinking about these things, without even looking at the road ahead, so she bumped into a man with broad arms.
"It's you." Han Liudie raised his head slightly and saw the kind-faced man who gave him the jade pendant - Ling Feng.
Ling Feng lowered his head and saw that the woman who bumped into him was the woman he met yesterday wearing white clothes and playing and singing pipa on the street. He smiled and said: "Girl, your body is not fully recovered yet, why did you come out?"
I'm coming out to find you."
"It's okay, thank you for your concern, sir." His smile made Han Liudie feel at ease. She raised her head and asked, "By the way, I don't know your name, sir."
"Ling Feng!" Ling Feng replied without thinking. Although his current identity was Liang Wentian, the prefect of Suzhou during the Xuanhe period of the Northern Song Dynasty, he still said the name he had been accustomed to for a long time and had no intention of changing it.
"It turns out to be Mr. Ling, and the little girl Han Liudie. Thank you for sending me to the Qian Mansion yesterday after I fell into a coma and asking someone to take good care of me." Han Liudie gave a slight gift to Ling Feng.
Ling Feng quickly supported Han Liudie, waved his hand and said, "You're welcome. By the way, how did the people in the Qian Mansion treat you? Did they bully you?"
Han Liudie shook her head lightly and said, "No, they all treat me very well."
Ling Feng smiled and said: "That's good, I'm really worried that they will treat you badly."
"Master Ling, I will return this jade pendant to you now." Han Liudie took out the jade pendant and wanted to return it to Ling Feng's hand.
Ling Feng did not accept it, but waved his hand and said: "I will never take back what you give away."
Han Liudie nodded helplessly and said: "Okay, I'll keep it for you for the time being, and I'll return it to you when you want it."
Han Liudie's sad look on his face clearly meant that he had something on his mind. Ling Feng asked, "Liu Die, I think you have encountered something that you can't solve? If it's convenient, you can tell me."
Standing by the gurgling stream, Han Liudie said: "I am originally an official lady from Zhoushan City, Hangzhou. My father is Han Qingyun, a well-loved upright official there. I also have an older sister named Han Huawu. Originally,
Our family of three lived a good life, but we were framed by the prefect of Suzhou. My father was imprisoned and was beheaded not long ago. My sister was so angry that she came to Suzhou alone and attempted to assassinate the prefect of Suzhou. However,
She was arrested anyway, and I heard that she is now being held in a dungeon in Suzhou, so I want to go and see her."
Ling Feng learned from Han Liudie's words that the prefect of Suzhou must be a corrupt official, but he himself was also the prefect of Suzhou. Could it be that there are two prefects in Suzhou? Feeling doubtful, he asked: "Liudie, I don't know you
So what’s the name of the Suzhou prefect?”
Han Liudie looked resentful and said resentfully: "Liang Wentian! He was the one who caused my father to be beheaded, and now he has caused my sister to be arrested and thrown into the dungeon. Her life or death is uncertain."
Ling Feng frowned and said, "Liang Wentian? Are you sure there is nothing wrong?"
Han Liudie confirmed: "Well, that's him! Although I didn't see what he looked like with my own eyes, I know that it was him who caused our family to be ruined and left alone."
"How could this happen? Didn't Fengxian say that Liang Wentian was an upright official? How could he be a corrupt official who killed upright officials? Who said it was false?" These questions kept lingering in Ling Feng's heart.
Then, Ling Feng knew that only by going back and asking Fengxian could he know the answer to all this, and only then could he know who had lied.
It seems that Han Liudie came to Suzhou alone for her sister Han Huawu. Ling Feng couldn't help but ask: "Then what are your plans?"
Han Liudie said without thinking: "I am going to visit my sister in the dungeon of Suzhou Mansion now."
"Then I'll go with you." Ling Feng also wanted to see what this so-called Suzhou dungeon is like. Does it really require money to clear everything?
Ling Feng would accompany her, which surprised Han Liudie. She raised her eyebrows slightly and said, "Mr. Ling, will you accompany me?"
Ling Feng nodded and confirmed: "Well, you are from a girl's family after all. I am worried that someone will bully you if you are not familiar with the place. Having one more person will naturally give you more strength. If someone bullies you,
, I can still protect you!"
Originally, Han Liudie was a little scared to go alone, but when she heard that Ling Feng volunteered to accompany her and said he would protect her, she bowed and said, "Thank you, Mr. Ling."
"You're welcome, let's go then." Ling Feng accompanied Han Liudie as they walked toward the Suzhou Mansion dungeon.
