He has nothing to do but endure it for a while.So he still begged: "My lord, please let Liu Hai go, Caomin is willing to bear the responsibility. Just now I saw that the lord's behavior is exactly the same as that of his teacher. He must have been taught deeply by his teacher. The teacher's life is fair and strict, and all his followers are good officials. , there is absolutely no one who wronged innocent people. Presumably, I don’t want to be like Wu Zonglun, so I beg you to let Liu Hai go!”

"Wu Zonglun, do you know that Ms. Wu and I are childhood sweethearts? I secretly made up my mind since I was a child that I will marry her when she grows up. When she grows up, she falls in love with someone else. I have nothing to say. But that person I didn't even know it... let her down..." Yuan Hong took a deep breath, "Now that she is dead, you are still alive. Tell me, can I let you go?! No, the last thing I can't let go is Liu Hai, Hehe, you should also taste the feeling of losing the one you love!"

Hearing the hatred in his tone, Wu Zonglun raised his head in surprise and said, "My lord knows that I am the one who did the harm, but dare not take revenge on me? Besides, Liu Hai is just my good brother, we are all men... How could it be... a beloved person?"

Yuan Hong laughed: "I was a little hesitant at first, but just now I saw the marks on his body and tested him for a long time. Not only is he willing to convict his lover, but he is even willing to die for his lover... It is really affectionate!"

He stopped talking to Wu Zonglun, called the Yamen servant loudly, and put the two of them into the county Yamen jail.

Survive

eleven,

The jailer also recognized Wu Zonglun. When the two entered the prison, Wu Zonglun said, "Brother Wang Wu, please bring some sore medicine. I have money on me."

Wang Wu said in a low voice: "Master Wu, I don't dare to ask for your money. The county lord just ordered that anyone who dares to treat the prisoners will be kicked out! How about this, I'll bring a basin of warm water over, and you wipe this little brother's money." Wipe the blood."

Wu Zonglun had no choice but to agree.Wang Wu said again: "No, the master also said that the two of you can't be locked together. After cleaning, you can live in a cell next to each other."

Wu Zonglun knew that Wang Wu had intentionally released the water, and the period of wiping his body was the time he left for the two of them to talk.

Wu Zonglun helped Liu Hai into the cell, but Liu Hai couldn't stand anymore and knelt down.

Wu Zonglun hurriedly helped him sit up straight, and said in a low voice, "Hai'er?"

Liu Hai looked up: "It's okay, it's just that I knelt for too long just now and my feet are numb."

Wu Zonglun was a little apprehensive: "I really don't know what the hairpin is as a token for choosing a son-in-law. If I knew, I wouldn't accept it!"

The two suddenly encountered a catastrophe, and the first sentence he said was this. Liu Hai was in pain, and couldn't help laughing: "I know. Brother Ang, I believe in you."

Only then did Wu Zonglun feel relieved, and sat down against the wall, took off his bangs jacket and trousers to prevent the wound from sticking to it, and while wiping the blood and sweat around the wound, comforted him: "Hai'er, I still can't think of a countermeasure right now. , but you don’t have to worry, if you keep the green hills, you don’t have to worry about running out of firewood. No matter what happens, you just need to remember one thing.”

He stared into Liu Hai's eyes and said seriously: "No matter what happens, you promise me that you will not commit suicide."

Liu Hai nodded in shock: "Okay, I promise you."

Wu Zonglun cleaned the wound carefully, and put on the clean clothes on Liu Hai's body, and put on the dirty clothes with torn bangs himself.

Liu Hai turned his back to him and said: "Brother Wu, you changed my medicine in the same way last time in prison, but last time you got involved and lost your official position. This time, I'm really afraid that I will get involved with you again. If the county The official wants to punish me, so you don't have to stop him, just let him vent his anger, and he will let us go, in fact, I think his sweetheart is gone, and it's very pitiful..."

Wu Zonglun shook his head and said: "The crime of theft can be big or small. It can be as small as a fine of money, or as big as exile and beheading. It depends on how the official will sentence you. If he wants to sentence you to death, can I sit idly by? Besides..." He Looking at Liu Hai with affection on his face: "Regardless of last time and this time, if you say that you are implicated, it is I who implicated you."

Both of them were a little sad, but they both knew that there was nothing they could do about the situation before them.

Wu Zonglun kissed Liu Hai a few more times before going back to his cell. He leaned against the wall and stayed up all night, thinking about strategies to survive.

On the second day, the cell boss went back to Wu Zonglun, saying that Shao An had received the letter, and that he would take care of Yu Shi in the next few days, and would help to conceal it for the time being.Let the two of you not worry.

Wu Zonglun said: "Thank you." He thought about it all night last night, and the only person who can save himself and Liu Hai today is probably only his teacher Wu Chao.It's just that it's more than a month away from the capital, even by the fastest waterway. Even if Wu Chao is willing to save him, no matter if he comes in person or writes a letter to intercede, he and Liu Hai may not be able to wait for such a long time if they go back and forth for three months. up.

It seems that the only option is to delay, or as Liu Hai said, let the county magistrate vent his anger and settle the matter.But this was a bad idea, and he really didn't want to make this decision unless it was absolutely necessary.

"Wang Wuge, can you find a piece of paper for me?"

He asked the prison head for a piece of yellow paper, so he took the bat wooden hairpin from his head. When he was up late last night, he took the hairpin and rubbed it on the ground. Use sharps.He tried it on his hand, and blood beads immediately oozed from his fingertips. He stabbed it hard and wrote a blood letter to Wu Chao with the blood on his fingertips.

After finishing writing, when Shao An came over in the afternoon, he avoided others.Although he has been jealous of Shao An many times, he knows his character very well. Under the current situation, Shao An is probably the only one who can help them.

He explained the situation in detail, and also Wu Chao's official position and address, and wrote a post on Shao An.Said: "Whether Liu Hai and I can get out of trouble this time depends entirely on whether this letter can be delivered. Everything is up to you."

Shao An also knew the pros and cons of it, nodded and said: "Master Wu, don't worry, Shao An will definitely bring the letter."

After another three days in prison, Wu Zonglun heard Liu Hai coughing at night, he shouted Liu Hai's name, Liu Hai said: "I'm fine, Brother Ang, the humidity in the prison is heavy, I feel a little uncomfortable."

After coughing for two days, the cell boss came to report and said: "Master Wu, Liu Hai has a high fever and has not subsided for two days. I also reported it to Master Yuan, but he was noncommittal, just said he wanted me to tell you."

Wu Zonglun almost broke the fence of the cell!

"Go and report to Master Yuan, just say that I begged to see him!"

When the prison chief came back, he looked embarrassed: "Master Yuan said that you two are only criminals now, and the sentence has not yet been pronounced. He can't see you for the time being to avoid suspicion. He also said..."

Wu Zonglun asked anxiously, "What else did he say?"

The prison boss said: "He also said that you and Liu Hai can only go out one by one, and he wants you two to choose, whoever goes out, who...that...carry out..."

Wu Zonglun said: "Tell him, you don't have to choose, I am willing to let him handle it. Brother Wang, Liu Hai still has a blind mother to take care of. If there are any problems with him, it will be two lives. Please tell Mr. Yuan , save Liu Hai... Please..."

Before he finished speaking, an indifferent female voice came from the darkness: "Liu Hai still has a blind mother to take care of, why don't you have nothing to worry about in this world?"

The cell boss hurriedly saluted behind him, Wu Zonglun took a closer look, and saw a glamorous lady Shi Shiran stepping out of the shadows.

She is around forty years old, but she looks younger because of proper maintenance. She is dressed in fancy clothes and the huge pearl on her neck shows that her status is either rich or noble.The eyebrows and eyes are sharp, and they are five or six points similar to Wu Zonglun.

Wu Zonglun whispered: "Mother?!"

Yuan Hong who was behind the noble lady said with a smile: "I wrote a letter to tell Mrs. Wu that you have abandoned your official position and lived here in seclusion. Mrs. Wu loves her son dearly, so she rushed over in ten days."

The noble lady nodded to look at the direction of Liu Hai, and then looked at Wu Zonglun's ragged and distressed appearance, her face was gloomy: "It's really a useless thing! It's hiding here!"

Wu Zonglun knelt down and said, "Mother, it was Zonglun who brought mother to shame and shamed Wu."

Mrs. Wu sighed: "Although you have never met, Mr. Yuan is actually a distant cousin of yours. Logically, you should call me aunt. He is also kind, and he can't bear to see you abandon your fame and be so disrespectful." Four people mixed together, that's why I was called here. Now that you have learned your lesson, don't hesitate, go back with me."

Wu Zonglun still knelt and did not move: "Then Liu Hai has not been released yet, he was innocently implicated by the child, and the child cannot leave."

Yuan Hongdao: "Auntie, look, it's not that my nephew is lying, my cousin really has a deep affection for this woodcutter, that's why he stays in Putian and refuses to leave!"

He originally thought that Mrs. Wu would be furious if this happened, but Mrs. Wu was not angry, she just said indifferently: "Then what do you want to leave? Well, I will ask Mr. Yuan to let Liu Hai go. If you I really like it, and it’s not a big deal for a son of a rich family to raise a few moles.”

She looked up and saw Yuan Hong's face was ugly, she was proud, and she said: "You don't know outside, your sister who is a direct relative has just been drafted into the palace recently, and she was directly conferred by the emperor. It’s not a matter of a word from the Holy Majesty, as long as you go home now, with your talent and ability and the care of caring people, it’s not all about returning to fame and even official positions.”

This was not only for Wu Zonglun, but also for Yuan Hong.

The more Yuan Hong listened, the more angry he became. He wrote to ask Mrs. Wu to come, because he was ready to watch and beat the mandarin ducks, but he didn't ask Wu Zonglun to be reborn from the Jedi!

But now he is still riding a tiger. After all, the Wu family is a big family. If he didn't alarm others, it would be no big deal to kill Wu Zonglun. But now that Wu family knows, he can no longer directly attack Wu Zonglun.Thinking of this, I'm really angry
