Chapter 73: Getting Out of Prison
The entire Yuncheng County was in chaos, but the prison cell was quieter than a pool of stagnant water.
Ximen Qing and Song Jiang woke up Youyouyoujue, and then woke Zhang Guanying and Wang Chappa. The two of them slept until now after getting drunk, sleeping like dead pigs, and they were hit by the fainting hole. They probably wouldn't wake up and they would have to sleep for another day.
The two opened their eyes and looked at Ximen Qing and Song Jiang, then looked at the surrounding environment, then reacted and said with a smile: "Oh, look at us, this wine is so bad that it's actually asleep here!"
Ximen Qing laughed and said, "Brother Song and I just woke up. We fell asleep after drinking too much wine. Everyone is like this! I thought it was getting late, so I woke up the two brothers. I think you have to go to the signing hall to sign in, so don't delay!"
Song Jiang also nodded and said, "Yes, you two still have official duties, don't delay it!"
"That's right! That's right!" Zhang Guanying nodded repeatedly, and then said, "Since that's the case, I will say goodbye first. We will bring wine and meat to the two brothers in a while. You can wait!"
After saying that, he and Wang Cha were dismissed from the cell.
After the two left, Song Jiang smiled and said, "Emperor Yi, what expression do you have to run in with these two people in a while?"
Hao Zhuo died and Hao Jian died too. This shocking event was nothing more than a major earthquake for Zhang Guanying and Wang Chaibo.
Ximen Qing said: "It must be in a hurry and a look of panic! I guess among all the officials, only Zhu Tong and Lei Heng can face it safely!"
After saying that, Ximen Qing smiled and said, "I don't know what chaos is going on outside. Haha, Hao Zhuo, the parents of food and clothing, are dead. These villains who are accomplices of tigers are afraid. Not everyone can bear the anger of Yang Jian's fake man!"
"Haha..." Song Jiang nodded repeatedly, feeling happy in his heart.
Just as Ximen Qing and Song Jiang were having a good time chatting, Zhang Guanying and Wang Chabao ran in with panic. The two entered the cell and held Zhuzi and gasped. Then they saw Wang Chabao's face full of sweetness and said, "Two brothers, it's not good, no, Hao, County Magistrate Hao died, died on the belly of the concubine!"
Ximen Qing and Song Jiang looked at each other and looked at each other. Then Song Jiang pretended to be surprised and asked, "What? Hao Zhuo is dead?"
At this time, Zhang Guanying also added: "Not only him, but even Hao Jian died, and he died on the belly of his concubine!"
This time, Ximen Qing pretended to be surprised and asked: "What, Hao Jian died too? He also died on the concubine's belly? The father and son would not be......"
Wang Chabao shook his head quickly and said, "Of course not. They all died on the belly of his concubine. I don't know who can make the move. I know that the concubines of Hao County Magistrate Hao and Hao Jian are all as beautiful as flowers and as tender as water. Tsk tsk... By the way, fortunately, the two brothers are not outside, otherwise it will be troublesome. The outside is in great chaos now. Zhou Xing County Magistrate Zhu Tong and Lei Heng are all searching the whole city. As long as they are face-to-face, they will be arrested directly. They will probably be sent to the cell in a while."
Zhang Guanying said: "Yes, two brothers, fortunately you didn't go out. If you were outside, that would be bad. You only offended County Magistrate Hao and Hao Jian yesterday, and it can be said that the most suspicious."
Ximen Qing smiled and said, "Haha, this is called God's help from those who are enlightened! Of course, I also have to thank the two elder brothers for their care!"
Song Jiang said: "Yes, fortunately we stayed in prison, otherwise how could we tell the two mouths clearly!"
At this moment, a group of people walked in outside the prison cell. The head was Zhou Xing, the county lieutenant, followed by Zhu Tong and Lei Heng, and the arrested "suspects"!
As soon as the group came in, they suddenly silenced Ximen Qing and Song Jiang, making the two look strange and look like they wanted to laugh but couldn't.
Why?
Just because Zhou Xing arrested the suspects was speechless. Among these suspects, there were elderly people, as well as children aged 200, and there were beggars and women in the middle. Hundreds of people stood all the passages in the cell.
It is obvious that Zhou Xing is also a person who is not very smart. How could he be a child and an old man who can kill Hao Jian and Hao Zhuo silently? You think that they are superhumans with superpowers and can wear underwear backwards!
Wang Chabao and Zhang Guanying hurriedly went out to greet Zhou Xing.
Zhou Xing looked impatient and pointed at the suspect behind him and said to Wang Chaba and Zhang Guanying: "You two quickly put these suspects in prison and guard them well for me. No mistakes must occur, otherwise I will cut you alive!"
Hao Zhuo and Hao Jian's death have made Zhou Xing worry. The white hair on his head has emerged, which is even more painful than his own father. He was sent by him in the Hao Mansion. Now that Hao Zhuo and his two are dead, Zhou Xing is most likely to escape. If the murderer cannot be found, the county magistrate and the lord may have pushed him out to be a scapegoat!
Seeing that Aunt Zhou Xing was angry as if she was coming, Zhang Guanying and Wang Chaba had to nodded repeatedly, and then directed other prison guards to lock the suspect in the cell, but there were too many people and they could not be locked up at all.
Seeing more than twenty people standing outside, Zhou Xing scolded in anger: "You can't even do something useless, what's the use of Guan?"
Zhang Guanying lowered his head repeatedly and said, "Sir, villains are incompetent, but there are too many people, and the prison cells are really not enough!"
"Hmph!" Zhou Xing snorted in anger, and then said, "Zhu Tong, take the person to Hao Mansion, Lei Heng, let's continue to look for the suspect. Within today, all the suspects must be arrested and no one will be left!"
After saying that, he turned around and wanted to leave. However, he had just taken two steps before stopping, then turned around and looked at the cell where Ximen Qing and Song Jiang were staying, and then walked over.
Zhou Xing glanced at Song Jiang, his face became better, and he asked kindly: "Ayesi, why are you staying here?"
Those who knew about yesterday did not publicize the dispute, so Zhou Xing did not know about the dispute between Song Jiang and Hao Zhuo.
Song Jiang smiled bitterly and said in a pretentious manner: "Oh, it's unlucky. Come on, Brother Zhou, I will introduce you to me. This is my brother Ximen Qing. People from Jianghu give Emperor Yi!"
"Oh?" Zhou Xing was shocked, then bowed to Ximen Qing and said, "So it's the young hero of the righteous emperor, I'm so respectful!"
After saying that, he said to Zhang Guanying: "You are not letting out the Ai Si and the Young Master Yi Di! You are so stupid that you are ignorant!"
At this time, Song Jiang hurriedly stopped Zhou Xing and said, "Brother Zhou, there is no need. Emperor Yi and I offended Hao Jian, so we were sent to the prison. Alas, we were waiting for Lord Hao to give us a favor, but I didn't expect Lord Hao to be the one who said he was, Alas..."
Ximen Qing also sighed and said, "Thank you, Brother Zhou, for your care, but we really can't go out. Now that Hao Jian has just died, if we go out, wouldn't we become the biggest suspects? It's also unlucky. I just argued with Hao Jian for a few words and would be imprisoned in prison like this. It's really a disaster!"
After a few words, Ximen Qing distorted the conflict between himself and Hao Jian, from the original unbreakable or even to the death to the point of just verbal conspiracy, making people think that the conflict between Ximen Qing and Hao Jian was just a verbal dispute.
At this time, Wang Guanying said at the right time: "Yes, the county magistrate, Brother Song and Brother Ximen are very innocent. Last night, Lao Zhang and I accompanied them to drink with them, so we can guarantee that they are not suspicious. And now that Lord Hao and Hao Jian are dead, the conflict between them and Hao Jian can be lifted, so we beg the master to let them go. Just so we are in a very small cell, and we can just hold the remaining people!"
Zhu Tong and Lei Heng also hurriedly walked up and pleaded: "Yes, Lord Zhou, Hao Jian is dead, and there is no value in locking up Song Jiang and Ximen Qing. And they have no suspicion at all, so why not let go of personal favors?"
Seeing everyone persuading, Zhou Xing nodded, thinking that was the case, but he did not make a decision to go to the court. Song Jiang and Ximen Qing were just locked up and had no charge at all. This time, he spoke up to Song Jiang and Ximen Qing, which was equivalent to saving them once. He owed him once, and he might use it in the future.
Zhou Xing said: "I also believe that Brother Song and Brother Ximen are innocent. Since Hao Jian is dead, Brother Song and Brother Ximen can naturally come out."
Ximen Qing and Song Jiang looked at each other, then smiled and thanked Zhou Xing: "Then thank you County Magistrate Zhou!"
