Rebirth of Upside Down

Chapter 15 Chapter 15

The six kings could see Xie Jin's blatant defense of the blind man, and the master knelt down again in horror: "This minister deserves to die. It was an unintentional mistake to run into Mr. Xie."

Xie Wen said coldly: "If you don't want to slander like this, you don't know what to do if you want to. My second brother has always been kind and kind. If the prince and I hadn't happened to meet this scene, I don't know how he would be bullied by you."

As soon as these words came out, the principal broke out in cold sweat, but Xie Jin was taken aback for a moment, and then a warm current surged in his heart.It turns out... Is Xie Wen so protective of him?Did he miss a lot in his last life?

"Thank you brother for protecting me, the master didn't say anything about me, it's just that I don't know what to do."

Bei Zhao looked at the principal, and opened his thin lips lightly: "You mean, this king recruited someone who is incompetent as an assistant?"

The principal was sweating even more, and kowtowed like garlic: "I don't mean that, I really don't mean that."

"Go away!" Xie Jin shouted sharply.As if he had received an amnesty, the master rolled and crawled out.

"You are kind-hearted, afraid that I will kill him?" Bei Zhao sneered, but changed the subject in a flash: "Xie Jin, Xie Wen, as usual, you will be interrogated by the officials of the Ministry of Criminal Justice tomorrow, and you must live in the prison of the Ministry of Criminal Justice today. .”

Xie Wen said: "We understand that it is a fluke to be able to save our lives this time."

After all, they are inseparable from Xie Zihan, if not for the protection of the two princes, they would surely die.

Bei Zhao came here with Xie Wen, and gave the chief a warning, the treatment of the two brothers of the Xie family was naturally different.

Although they still lived in the cell, no one dared to insult or abuse them. In the evening, the cell boss brought two quilts over: "Young masters, it can freeze to death at night, but these two quilts will make you warmer." .”

"Thank you very much." Xie Jin took the quilt and said with a smile, "We both live here, so I need to trouble you."

The prison chief was flattered, and said again and again: "How dare you do it, how dare you do it, sleep well, I'm going out to inspect."

"Brother, how is the prince?" Xie Jin finally couldn't help asking after the jailer walked away.

Xie Wen couldn't see any emotion between his brows, and said in a flat tone: "He has been grounded."

Xie Jin then stopped talking.Soon the cold air spread from all directions, he wrapped the quilt around his body, and fell asleep after a long time.

In the interrogation the next day, Bei Zhao was the presiding judge, and the Secretary of the Ministry of Punishment was not a fool, and he knew how to suppress this matter appropriately.He simply asked a few questions, and then announced that the second trial will be held in two days.

By the time of the third trial, seven days had passed.Not surprisingly, both Xie Wen and Xie Jin were released without charge. Not only that, the emperor thanked Xie Wen for his meritorious service in reporting, and he was promoted to a higher level.

Xie Mansion was sealed off, and Xie Wen's residence became a problem.People kept coming to give him money and a house, but he didn't take anyone's money—gifts were not free.

So the emperor found out about this, and once again rewarded him in front of his ministers, saying that he was just a clean and honest official.Xie Jin's official position is too humble, and he cannot go to the court, so he can only stand at the bottom of Danchi for nearly half an hour every day, and occasionally stand for an hour, it all depends on how many things are going on inside.

Therefore, he probably heard about Xie Wen's deeds.Zhao Cheng made him a pot of hot tea, and said with a smile, "The eldest young master is so progressive, the restoration of Xie's family is just around the corner. Congratulations to the second young master."

Xie Jin was not as happy as him, and it wasn't because he was jealous, but there was always a faint worry in his heart.

Xie Wen looks similar to him in temperament, but in fact, Xie Jin couldn't see what Xie Wen was thinking.After the incident in Ningzhou, he seemed to be a little less friendly with the prince, but he didn't come to Bei Zhao again.It is really hard to figure out how to act like this.

"Second Young Master, are you unhappy?" Zhao Cheng lowered his voice, fearing that he might say something wrong.

Xie Jin smiled faintly: "Why are you unhappy? Elder brother Qingyun is going straight up, I should encourage myself more and work hard to follow."

"You were worried about this in the first place. In fact, you are quite good, and you will definitely pass the Jinshi exam next time."

Xie Jin smiled and said, "I'm already a member of the Imperial Academy, so why do I need to take the Jinshi exam?"

He got up, walked a few steps, and arrived in front of Zhao Jun.Zhao Jun has been practicing archery in the yard. Like most children, he prefers martial arts to literature.

"That's not how you hold a bow. I'll teach you." Xie Jin took over the simple bow and arrow cut from bamboo in his hand, put the arrow on it, almost as if he had loosened the string, but the tip of the arrow stuck straight into the center of the target. .

"It's amazing!" Zhao Jun looked at him with starry eyes: "How did you do it?"

Xie Jin patted his head and said, "Practice more. I'm not that good. After you practice for a few years, you will surpass me."

This is the truth, he doesn't have any talent in martial arts, and he doesn't like it very much, so he hastily learned it for more than ten years.

Although Xie Zihan didn't let him show off, he asked him to learn what he should learn. The intention was to put pressure on Xie Wen. If no one competed with him, he would inevitably slack off.

"Yeah." Zhao Jun nodded solemnly: "I will practice harder."

The weather has entered the middle of winter, dry and cold.Xie Jin looked up at the sky, it was completely white.He murmured: "I don't know what happened to Xie Zihan."

The Ningzhou injustice case was investigated, and then Xie Zihan was investigated. He has committed a lot of crimes over the years.Therefore, during this period of time, the Ministry of Criminal Justice and Dali Temple have been investigating this matter, and Xie Zihan has been locked in the prison.

"Zhao Cheng, go to the kitchen to get some food, no, you cook some dishes, don't be too greasy, make them easy to eat."

Zhao Cheng thought he was hungry, so he said, "Okay."

After the meal was ready, Zhao Cheng carried it, and the master and servant left the palace and rushed to the prison.

Where is the dungeon?All the prisoners were important officials and nobles, and even a small jailer was a smooth figure who had been boiled in oil seven or eight times.

Xie Jin reported his name, and the jailer made up his mind before he could change his mind: "Master Xie, there are rules in the prison, don't you know? Don't give money, what's the use of money if you lose your head? Go ahead, go ask the Sixth Prince for a word, and I will have an answer if you blame me in the future, right?"

"Then trouble you to bring this meal in, can you?" Xie Jin didn't have to meet people either.

"It's easy to say." The jailer smiled and refused to pick up the food box.

Xie Jin then stuffed the silver ticket over: "It's troublesome."

The jailer took the food box with a smile: "It's a little effort, it's human nature for you, I'll send it out right away, you go slowly."

"Did you go to see Xie Zihan today?" Bei Zhao looked at him condescendingly, and said with a smile, "Don't you hate him? Why are father and son so affectionate now?"

Xie Jin smiled wryly and said, "I really want to hate him, but he is my father after all, how can I really hate him?"

Only then did he realize that when he was reborn, his heart was full of grief. He thought he hated Xie Zihan, and felt that Xie Zihan was sorry for him, and even more sorry for his mother.But as time passed slowly, my heart gradually calmed down, and I didn't have any hatred.Everything is to blame.Maybe God gave him another chance just to let him understand this truth.

It wasn't that Xie Zihan was sorry for him, it was that he himself was too cowardly to resist, and he lowered his status too low.It's not that Xie Wen has no brotherhood with him, but every time he sees Xie Wen, he takes a detour and hardly has a chance to chat.
