The Little Lucky Girl

Chapter 3 Can’t get out

Zheng Huan and the other two didn't expect that the kid would speak well of them, and they felt even more guilty. "Sir, he is the most innocent. We robbed his room. Please let him go too."

Magistrate Tao waved his hand and said, "Okay, I understand."

He didn't say whether to release him or not. He didn't care about the case. He would hand it over to Jingzhao Yinfu and let his superiors worry about it. But he could say a few words to plead for mercy.

Magistrate Tao made up his mind and turned to leave, but he saw his lawyer running in from outside.

The expression on his master's face made him inexplicably nervous.

Sure enough, the master said, "Sir, after receiving the news, Jingzhao Yin Li rushed to the palace immediately. As a result, his horse got frightened on the way and he fell off the horse. He is now recovering at home."

After looking at Magistrate Tao's expression, the lawyer continued, "Someone just came from the palace. His Majesty wants you to be in charge of this matter."

Humph, Magistrate Tao thought to himself that Lord Li dodged quickly. He was frightened and fell off his horse. Who was he kidding? The chief instructor of the capital's cavalry and archery, who won first place in the spring hunting every year, could he fall off his horse so easily?

Forget it, the emperor has already issued an edict, Magistrate Tao sighed in his heart, it is useless to push the responsibility to others, he might as well get to work.

The most important thing now is to keep an eye on Xiao Ningyi's condition. Whether he wakes up or not makes a big difference.

As for these children, since we can't send them away, just keep them in jail for now.

When they heard that they were going to be imprisoned, Zheng Huan and his friends remained calm. After all, the three brothers had thought about the worst possible outcome.

Ming Youyou was so frightened that she shuddered and sobered up. It would be fine if she came to the county government, but why did she have to go to jail?

"Sir, sir, I was just passing by, I didn't hit anyone." Ming Youyou's little head was spinning quickly at this moment, spouting out all the good words he had heard before, "It is said that you love the people like your own children, you are very observant, and you can solve cases like a god. You must not wrongly accuse a good person."

Magistrate Tao felt a little annoyed. If it was an adult who was complimenting him like this, he would not even pay attention. But now it was a chubby little boy, so he found it quite interesting. "You say you are wronged, then let me ask you, it was you who handed the vase over?"

Ming Youyou nodded stupidly, then understood and widened her eyes, "Does this count?"

"Why not? The vase is an important piece of evidence."

Ming Youyou was not convinced, "That's not what I want, that's..."

"We asked him to take it. He was forced." Zheng Huan and the other two said righteously.

Ming Youyou nodded wildly, "Yes, I was forced." He was afraid of being beaten if he didn't give in at that time.

Magistrate Tao sighed, "Whether it was voluntary or forced, the vase passed through your hands, and this matter has something to do with you. The specific extent of the connection will depend on how the higher-ups decide. Just stay quiet for the next few days."

Ming Youyou opened her mouth wide but couldn't say a word. A feeling of grievance surged from her heart and tears welled up in her eyes.

Seeing that he had successfully made the child cry, County Magistrate Tao felt a little bit sorry for him, but he also thought that the child looked quite funny and could not help but look at him a few more times.

This time, I found something was wrong...

These eyebrows, this little face...

Hiss, this child, could it be a girl?

This child is only about six or seven years old. It is hard to tell that a child of this age is wearing men's clothes. Moreover, the child looks very heroic. In addition, he was brought here from the restaurant...

Haha, she is a brave young lady.

Magistrate Tao thought about it and felt that there was no need to expose her identity. This matter had nothing to do with her. He would just make the case file vague when he submitted it and then release the person quietly when he came back.

But now, we should take better care of them. Magistrate Tao waved his hand to the officers and said, "Take them away."

Then he pointed at Ming Youyou and said, "Find her a better room."

The officers were stunned. Shouldn't they find a good place for the three young masters? Did the lord make a mistake?

But seeing that the adults had no intention of changing their ways, they bowed and left.

So Ming Youyou occupied the largest luxurious room in the county jail by herself, and Zheng Huan and the other three squeezed into the second luxurious room together.

To say it was luxurious meant that the floor wasn't that dirty and there was an extra bed and a set of table and chairs in the room.

Ming Youyou looked at the empty cell and felt a little sad and a little scared. The tears in her eyes couldn't help but flow down.

She missed home and her parents. Her parents must be worried sick now.

Although Zheng Huan and his two companions were frequent visitors to the county government office, this was their first time in jail.

Just as they were feeling a little emotional, they saw the child opposite them sitting on the bed wiping his tears.

Now there was no time to think about anything else. The three of them looked at each other and wondered how they should coax the child.

Zheng Huan tried to comfort him: "Don't be afraid, I have people at home. When I see them, I will ask them to get you out first."

The fat boy Lu Tai also said, "Yes, my grandfather must be crying in front of Your Majesty now. Your Majesty will let us go if he gets tired of him."

Feng Xu also said: "Although my father is not in the capital, the housekeeper will definitely go to find my father's friends, and they will help."

Ming Youyou raised her head and looked at them with a pair of slightly red and swollen eyes, and asked in surprise: "Your family members sound so powerful, are they high-ranking officials?"

Zheng Huan: "I guess so. My father is a duke."

Lu Tai: "My grandfather was a minister."

Duke, Shangshu... Hey, why do these official titles sound familiar? Ming Youyou's eyes lit up and he pointed at Feng Xu and asked, "Is your father a general?"

Feng Xu nodded vigorously. "Yes, my father is a mighty general who was personally appointed by His Majesty to protect the country. How did you know that? Did you think of my father because you saw how powerful I am?"

Ming Youyou smiled, "That's not the case. I have heard of you. In the teahouse in my hometown county, the storyteller loves to tell your stories the most."

"Where is your hometown?"

"Yuqing County."

"I haven't heard of it. Is it far from the capital?"

"It's far. It took me ten days to get there by car."

So their deeds have spread so far? Zheng Huan and the other two were inexplicably proud, "What did the storyteller say about us?"
