I sighed for Zhao Yi with red ears, my grief and indignation came from my heart.I didn't intend to catch a glimpse of Bai Xuanhan, but saw that his face was already ashen.Bai Zhen lowered his eyes and glanced at Bai Xuanhan, he was about to say a few words, after a few struggles, he turned his gaze to me.I quickly averted my eyes.

"Zhao Xiao, was there really no one outside Zhao Qing's house that night?!" Master Zhang's gaze was fierce, and Zhao Xiao was trembling. "My lord, there is really no one, we all left." Zhao Da spoke earnestly: "We are telling the truth, and we dare not lie to you."

Master Zhang suddenly slapped the gavel, not only scared Zhao Xiao's body, even I trembled.He sternly said, "Zhao Xiao! Was there really no one outside the house that night?" Zhao Xiao almost cried, "No one, really no one."

"Bold! How dare you open your eyes and talk nonsense!" Mr. Zhang let out a long cry, which made Xiao Zhao's body go limp in fright, and he slumped on the ground. "Come on! Give me twenty big boards first!"

"My lord! My lord, please spare me!" Zhao Xiao cried out in fright, "I really don't know anything! My lord!" The clerk dragged out the bench, pulled Zhao Xiao over and pressed him on top. "Hit me!" At the command, the yamen official raised his hand and hit, Zhao Xiao cried while crying, "My lord, I really don't know anything!"

"I want to see if it's your stubbornness or my toughness!" After just a few hits, Zhao Xiao's buttocks showed a little scarlet color.I couldn't help shrinking back, this board is still a bit powerful.

"Say... I'll say!" Zhao Xiao's tears dripped down his nose and saliva, and he choked, "I said..." There is really something else hidden, I can't help but sigh, sometimes it takes real work to make it happen thing.Everyone in the hall was silent, and all cast their eyes on Zhao Xiao.

Zhao Xiaodao: "That night... I actually sneaked back outside the young master's house... At that time, the young master was having a good time, one... one..." Zhao Xiao stuttered and dared not say any more.Master Zhang frowned, and said, "What?!"

Zhao Xiao raised his sleeve and wiped the tears on his face, trying his best to suppress the timidity in his heart: "A man wearing night clothes and covering his face jumped in from the window sill, and killed the young master with a single knife..."

"What did you say?" Zhao Yougan was so angry that he grabbed Zhao Xiao's hair and shouted, "If you dare to talk nonsense, I will definitely ask you to be buried with him!"

"No, master, I'm not talking nonsense." Zhao Xiao fell from the wooden bench to the ground, climbed into the hall, and cried, "My lord, I really don't have to lie this time. When the young master fell on the bed, I was scared." I had to scream. The man found me, if I hadn't run fast at that time, I'm afraid he would have died..."

Zhao Xiaoxiao's words, although it is still unclear who the murderer is, are enough to prove my innocence.When I was about to speak, Bai Xuanhan took the lead and said, "Master Zhang, Zhao Yi's innocence is now clear, can he be released now?"

Mr. Zhang was silent for a moment, "Zhao Xiaoxiao's words are true, so we can let Zhao Yi go..." Bai Xuanhan didn't care whether he finished speaking or not, and said I would leave.Bai Xuanhan's expression at this moment is so frighteningly frightening that he really dare not look at it.

"Stop!" Zhao Youqian shouted suddenly, before he could wipe away his tears, he staggered to his feet: "Master Zhang! How do you know it wasn't Zhao Yi who bought/killed/killed/people?"

"Buying murder..." In fact, what Zhao You said was not wrong, even if Zhao Xiaoxiao's story is true, it can only prove that I didn't kill someone myself.Now that the real murderer has not been caught, the possibility of me buying the murderer/killer/person cannot be ruled out.

"Master Zhang! Could it be that you want to cover up?!" Zhao Youqian continued, "What's more, Zhao Yi is my school boy! Even if he wants to be released, he can only go back to my Zhao family!"

"Now he's mine." Suddenly, Bai Xuanhan snarled.Zhao Youqian was still arrogant, "Your? I have raised this dog for 12 years. Does it belong to you if you say it is yours? Do you have his deed of prostitution?"

"Who are you calling a dog!" Bai Xuanhan clenched his fist, and I could clearly feel the angry tremor coming from Bai Xuanhan's arm.Zhao Youqian burst into tears again, "Master Zhang, now my son has died tragically, and the book boy at home is being targeted by outsiders again. You are the master of Qingtian, you must make the decision for me! Master Zhang!"

The person in the hall looked troubled, in a dilemma.If it were me, I would be embarrassed too.If you don't care about it, you can sell Bai Xuanhan to save face and force me to go, but the contract of selling yourself is unavoidable.The atmosphere in the hall was tense for a while, Mr. Zhang said: "Come on, take Zhao Yi back to the prison first, and try again at another day!"

"My lord..." Bai Xuanhan didn't want to let go, and I didn't dare to let go either.Master Zhang showed bitterness, Bai Zhen stepped forward, and said in a low voice, "My lord, the overall situation is the most important thing." The overall situation is the most important?Human life is at stake, isn't my life important?God knows how much I want to tear up Bai Zhen's rotten mouth, and I'm afraid I won't be able to save my life if I drag it on.

"Tong'er, just wait a little longer. I will catch the murderer and return your innocence." Whether Bai Xuanhan let go of his hand after all, I felt a chill in my heart, the night was full of dreams.I was thrown back into the prison again, and this time I probably couldn't escape death.After careful consideration, the form is very unfavorable to me. Even if Bai Xuanhan proves my innocence, Zhao Yougan has Zhao Yi's deed of prostitution. Once his son Zhao Qing dies, that old guy will definitely not let me, a school boy, be let go.

After going around and around, I still can't jump out of this dead word.While lamenting my rough fate, I grabbed the straw beside me, and suddenly a big mouse rushed over from the opposite corner, and slid into the haystack next to my buttocks.

Rats, familiar to everyone, suddenly feel a little familiar. "Why is my life so hard! When I was young, my parents didn't love me, and when I grew up, I was tortured by society... Now that I have come to this ruined dynasty, I haven't figured out the door yet, so I have to go down to be buried with others..." I feel sad to myself.

"You all be honest!" A warden snorted, "Zhao Yi." The jailer brought the food: "This is from your son, so hurry up and eat while you still have breath!"

The jailer was about to leave, and I hurriedly grabbed him by the corner of his clothes, "Brother jailer, brother jailer, wait..." The jailer was very impatient: "If you fart, let it go!" It is said that women turn their faces faster than flipping a book, but it is not the case. Men are also fickle masters.

"Could you trouble me to send a message to my young master, just say that I want to see him and invite him to come." I humbly smiled.The jailer glanced at me and said jokingly, "Do you have any money?"

I groped all over my body but didn't find a copper coin. All the silver I had on my body before was left in the room of that dead ghost Zhao Qing.I laughed dryly and said, "Brother jailer, brother jailer. See if I can owe you first, and when my young master comes, then..."

"Stop dreaming!" The jailer sneered, "You killed Zhao Yougan's son and you still want to live?" I admit that I cheated and robbed me, but I can't admit that I killed someone.Although I am not a builder of society, I am by no means a moth of society. "I didn't kill Zhao Qing!"

"Come on! Even if you didn't kill him, Zhao Yougan will let you go to be buried with him! Who is this Zhao Yougan? The richest master in Xinzhang City, the former county magistrates, are not arrogant in front of him. Dare to come out! Now this Lord Zhang is probably just putting on a show, when the show is enough, you! Go to the hell and continue to accompany your son!" The jailer walked away proudly.Xinyue, your head was buzzing, and you couldn't take it easy for a long time: "I don't want to be buried with that pervert...Bai Xuanhan, you said you would save me..."

Helpless, I leaned against the corner very depressed.From under the haystack came the squeaking of mice.I am very hungry, and there are all kinds of chicken, duck, fish, pastries and snacks in front of me. These are all my favorite things, but at the moment I have no appetite at all.

The haystack in front of him suddenly trembled, and the squeaking of mice became louder and louder.I followed the sound, but saw the mouse hiding in the haystack just now, with half of its head exposed, staring straight at the food in front of me.The mouse's eyes were very hungry and thirsty, and I remembered the mouse in the rented house before. It was so hungry that it had nothing to eat, so it ate my sleeping pills...

With a long sigh, I laughed to myself: "I haven't done anything wrong in this life, and now that I'm dying, I feel a little pity." The laughter was very mocking, and I threw the plate of cakes to the mouse, Holding the pastry and gnawing on it.A few more mice came out from under the haystack, and I picked up some soft cakes and threw them in front of them. "Eat it, eat it! Only after eating will you have the strength to make a hole..."

"Punch a hole..." A flash of inspiration flashed by, and I stood up suddenly, and looked at the outside environment through the small iron window.It's dusk now, and the western sky is reddened by the sunset glow. The scenery is very beautiful. If I change my mood in another place, I will definitely sit down and enjoy it.At this moment, my head is not safe, I dare not delay, and quickly scanned the situation outside the window.There is a high wall outside the window. From time to time, two small officials with knives will pass by. It seems that the security of this prison is not strict.

I squatted down again and opened a hole in the straw on the ground.Under the grass is moist soil, which is very soft, and a hole can be made by pawing it casually.This cell is at the end of the prison, and the guards often go back halfway, and they never come so far.I jumped to the door of the prison and looked out. The jailers were eating melon seeds, and suddenly I had a glimmer of hope, God will not kill me!

In the past, I was chased and intercepted by so many creditors in modern times, so I escaped. How can the dungeon with poor security be able to trap me now. "Heaven will send a great mission to the people, and they must first work hard on their minds and minds, exhaust their muscles and bones, starve their bodies and skins, and gain what they can't..." I have practiced the ability to sneak, kidnap and escape before, and now it's time to perform.There are many skills without overwhelming your body, and you can eat wherever you go.

After choosing a place, I picked up the porcelain plate where the pastry was just placed.Using a porcelain plate as a shovel, quickly dig the soft and wet soil.While digging, pave the dirt that has been dug out, cover it with straw, and keep digging and digging. I always believe in one sentence, the sky pays off.

"Be honest!" The jailer's sharp roar suddenly sounded in front of him.I paused for a second, hurriedly grabbed the straw, covered the hole, lay down on my side, closed my eyes and pretended to be asleep.The jailer came over, snorted a few times, and seemed to spit at me again, "It's no good to find a benefactor, short-lived thing!"

Hearing the sound of footsteps going away, I slowly stood up, not daring to think too much, took out the porcelain plate under my buttocks and continued digging up the soil.As the night deepened, my movements became lighter and lighter.I don't know how many days later, the soil suddenly emptied, and a cool night wind blew over the back of my hand, and it worked!

Overjoyed in my heart, I climbed into the hole and continued to open the opening on that side.The hole opened wider and wider, and it was estimated that it was almost the same, so I began to work hard to drill out.I wanted to see Bai Xuanhan again, but now that I think about it, forget it!Escape is important.

My head got out of the tunnel, I turned my head with difficulty and glanced around, there was no one, just right!I struggled to climb out of the tunnel, and ran to a pile of firewood like a gecko, climbed up the high wall, leaned on one side, and jumped down.

When I landed, my feet went numb and I let out a muffled groan.Ignoring the pain, I hurriedly limped into the woods outside the high wall.Taking advantage of the darkness, I touched the pier, the cold moonlight was reflected in the river water, and I could vaguely see a few flat boats floating on the river.

I jumped to the bank of the river, like a thief, "Boatman...Boatman..." The lights on the river suddenly flickered, an old man walked to the bow with the boat's awning in his hands, raised his oars, and rowed over, "Guest officer, Where are you going?"

I quickly jumped onto the bow of the boat and said casually: "Tongcheng, go to Tongcheng!" Bai Xuanhan had reported several place names earlier, but I only remembered this Tongcheng.

"Okay, sit down!" The old man yelled, and with a stroke of the pole, the boat swam, creating ripples.I staggered and nearly fell into the river.Looking at the far away river bank, he let out a long sigh of relief, this little life was saved.Thinking of Bai Xuanhan again, I always feel ashamed, that guy not only rescued me, but also served me delicious food, and now I leave him and run away, I feel so dishonest.

"Never mind him! Bai Zhen's kung fu is so good, there shouldn't be anything wrong..." I was a little annoyed, and finally I didn't think about it.He took out the soft cake in his arms, took a few bites, and Bai Xuanhan's cold face appeared in his mind again. "That bastard Bai Xuanhan gave me some kind of ecstasy, right? Why do I always miss him!"

He yawned and closed his eyes.The sound of oars piercing the water kept ringing, and the breeze blowing across the lake slapped me with a hint of sweetness. The breeze playfully played with the long hair, and the outline of the distant mountains was looming, like a shy beauty. "Finally free." Sleepy, I slowly closed my eyes.
