Chapter nine hundred and forty-two good and evil are rewarded
Unlike the officials and dignitaries in Kyoto who have indeed committed heinous crimes, the Shuzhou officials who were implicated by the King of Shu are actually not that vicious themselves. They may have committed some acts of plundering people's wealth and oppressing the people, but they are not guilty enough to die.
.
The death penalty can be avoided, but I am afraid that my career will be terminated and I will suffer a lot of physical torture. This is inevitable.
Although Li Yi once had some conflicts with Jiang Zian, it was a long time ago. When they were in Shuzhou, the other party was as kind as saving lives for him and Ruyi. Regardless of whether he was sincere or not,
It's enough to clear up all the previous grudges. When you see him reduced to this situation, you can't just stand by and watch.
"Dali Temple and the Secret Intelligence Department still have to go through some procedures. I'm afraid Brother Jiang will have to be wronged in the past two days." Li Yi stood up, looked at Jiang Zian and said: "However, Brother Jiang's suffering will not be in vain, hard work
You have been with King Shu for so many years, and the court will definitely compensate you."
Jiang Zian shook his head quickly, "No grievance, no grievance."
Being able to walk out of here alive is already a great blessing for him. Not being implicated in this case, being reinstated or even going further is something he has never thought about.
With the eldest princess here, everyone was very uneasy and did not dare to speak nonsense. After having arranged Jiang Zian's affairs, Li Yi did not stay long and said goodbye to them.
After Li Yi and the eldest princess left, an official from Dali Temple immediately changed his expression, glared at the jailers beside him, and said, "Hey, you guys, why do you have such long eyes? Why don't you tell Mr. Jiang about it?"
Keep things tidy here..."
No one thought that there was such a person hidden among this group of prisoners.
He is a life-and-death acquaintance with the Marquis of Li County. The undercover agent hiding next to the King of Shu, if he goes out from now on, he will not be able to rise rapidly...
Although he couldn't get Mr. Jiang out, it was still possible to improve the living environment of the cell.
"Here, clean this place..., clean the bucket, change the clean bucket every hour, and then go get a new quilt..."
After that, he looked at the woman who was holding Mr. Jiang's hand tightly, rolled his eyes, and said: "Mr. Jiang, I'm really sorry. The cell has been tense in recent days. Otherwise, you and Mrs. Jiang will be together in the past two days."
Just make do with each other in the same cell..."
Jiang Zian could naturally feel the goodwill conveyed by the Dali Temple official, nodded and said, "Thank you, sir..."
The Dali Temple official smiled and said: "You're welcome, you're welcome..."
Soon, the entire cell was cleaned spotlessly. The single bed was replaced by a double bed. The quilt on the bed was also brand new. Even the curtains were hung around the cell, which could be put down at any time, as if it were an independent cell.
It's like a small world.
Beside the bed, the young woman held Jiang Zian's hand and asked doubtfully: "Husband, what is going on between you and that Mr. Li..."
Jiang Zian sighed, with a hint of reminiscence on his face, and said: "It was an autumn three years ago. I had just won the Jinshi Scholarship. I was full of enthusiasm and high spirits. That day, Prince Ning held a banquet in the mansion for you all.
Jinshi of Qing'an Prefecture..., then, then I met him..."
"Then what?"
"Then I was sent to the remote Shuzhou..."
…
Jiang Zian sighed and murmured: "Misfortune brings blessing, blessing brings misfortune, I really can't explain..."
In the other cells, everyone looked at the isolated area with envy on their faces.
I really didn’t expect that the service in Dali Temple’s Tianlao was so attentive, not to mention the rich decapitation meal, but also such obvious preferential treatment. There was food, a bed, and a woman. This is not like being in prison...
However, when they thought that this might be his last day of enjoyment, no one was envious of him.
It's just a short-term happiness. Maybe tomorrow, he will face a knife in the head.
They just put their ears against the wall, listening quietly, listening...
…
Liu Yishou still had to collect evidence one by one from the people of Dali Temple. They had been eating and lodging here for the past few days. Li Yi and the other three walked around the prison and walked out of Dali Temple.
"The King of Shu ran away, and the Cui family was finished like this. It was really hard to accept for a while..." Li Xuan sighed and asked: "Mingzhu, what should we do next?"
Li Mingzhu walked with her head lowered and did not respond.
Li Xuan looked back at her: "Mingzhu?"
Li Mingzhu came back to her senses, looked at him and nodded: "Well, you are right."
Li Xuan was stunned for a moment and asked in confusion: "What did I just say?"
"I still have some things to deal with, so I'm going back to the palace first." Li Mingzhu left without saying a word and strode away.
Li Xuan looked at her leaving back, touched her chin where there was no beard, and said, "She has something on her mind."
Li Yi counted with his fingers and said: "Women have a few days every month, and they will be fine after a few days."
Li Xuan stopped continuing the topic and suddenly asked: "Is your butt healed?"
Li Yi looked back at him, frowned and said, "My butt has always been very good."
"I saw it all when I went to your house that day." He shook his head, looked at Li Yi, and said pitifully: "I think it might be easier for her to take you down than it is for you to take her down...
"
…
Yunxi Village is a village dozens of miles away from Kyoto City. It relies on mountains to eat and water to eat. Yunxi Village has mountains and water on its back. The villagers mainly make a living by fishing and farming. Occasionally, they also go into the mountains to hunt some prey and hike for a few days.
Ten miles away, go to the market in Kyoto to exchange money.
Rich people in Kyoto are very fond of game in the mountains.
The village is remote and not close to the official road. For decades or hundreds of years, the villagers of Yunxi Village have worked at sunrise and rested at sunset. Apart from daily purchasing and selling activities, they have had little communication with the outside world.
Of course, sometimes, some outsiders will pass by the village, take a rest, and ask for a glass of water, and most of the villagers will not refuse.
At this time, under the big locust tree at the entrance of the village, a man wiped his mouth and praised: "With mountains and water, this place is great..."
Opposite him, a villager smiled honestly and said, "In our hearts, this place can't even compare to Kyoto..."
After he finished speaking, he waved to an old man who came in from outside and asked, "Old man Liu, have you gone into the mountains again?"
The old man seemed to have a disease in his legs and feet and was unsteady when walking. He was carrying a bamboo basket on his back. He smiled and said, "I just picked some medicine, but it didn't go very deep..."
Seeing the old man limping away, the villager smacked his lips and said: "Old man Liu is also a poor man. He is old and old, and it is not easy to have a daughter. Once when he went to the city, he was still entitled to have a daughter in Kyoto.
The young master of a powerful family was ruined, and the girl later jumped into the river. Old man Liu went to the government office to seek justice, but his legs were broken. The old woman at home became angry and sick, and she has not recovered yet, eh..."
The big man shook his head and said: "It is indeed pitiful, but the court has a policy for old people like this to go to the medical clinic built by Her Royal Highness the Princess. There is no charge for medical treatment, and there is no need to collect medicine by yourself..."
"Your Highness the Princess is so kind. The whole village remembers that if it weren't for Her Royal Highness's medical clinic, the old woman would have died long ago... The medicine was not collected for his wife. Old Man Liu picked it up by the river a few days ago.
A man's hands and feet were broken, and his body was badly burned. Old Man Liu collected medicine for him..." The expression on the villager's face became angry, and he cursed: "In this shitty world, there are really no good people.
Good reward, good people don't live long, but evil people who do evil live longer than anyone else!"
The big man finished drinking the water, patted his shoulder, and comforted: "Good and evil will eventually be rewarded. Heaven's way is reincarnation, and evil people will definitely get their retribution..."
In a dilapidated courtyard, as soon as the old man walked through the door, an old woman walked out and said excitedly: "He's awake, he's awake..."
Before the old man could put down the medicine basket on his back, he limped into the house and came to the bed. A figure on the bed had already opened his eyes.
There were large burns on his exposed skin, most of his hair was burned, his limbs were weirdly bent, and there was still some trance in his eyes.
The old man jolted over and said with a smile: "You finally woke up..."
The person on the bed said hoarsely: "Did you save me?"
The old man nodded: "Ah, yes, I found you by the river that day. Where is your home? I'll have someone send you a message..."
The man thought for a while and said: "Please send a message to Prime Minister Qin's house for me, saying that Qin Yu is here. Remember, you must tell Prime Minister Qin personally..."
The old man was stunned on the spot and asked in a trembling voice: "Qin..., Qin Yu?"
After saying that, he seemed to have thought of something. He took a deep breath, looked at him, and asked: "You, are you the missing Young Master Qin..."
"As long as you help me accomplish this, I will be rewarded generously in the future."
The old man looked at him and asked: "Are you really Mr. Qin?"
The person on the bed said nothing again, obviously acquiescing.
"Qin Yu, Young Master Qin..." The old man closed his eyes, clenched his fists, and then slowly loosened them. He put down the medicine basket on his back, turned around, and whispered: "Old woman, go and close the door."
Not long after, outside the door, the big man scratched his head and said in surprise: "What are you doing with the door closed in broad daylight?"
