It's cold in spring, and it's most difficult to endure the cold weather in the middle of the night.
There is a row of gloomy small buildings deep in the punishment department. There are no windows, and the doors are covered tightly with black cotton cloth, even the cracks in the doors are left open. When you close the door, it is pitch black day and night, and you can't hear anything outside.
Any sound he makes is like falling into an endless hell.
But Boyi, who was locked here alone, was still unconscious and full of energy.
After careful calculation, I gained a lot in these two days. Although there were some accidents, I managed to enter the capital smoothly.
The only surprise may be the woman in red outside.
Rumor has it that the Duke of Qi chose Yu Qiansi because she was a woman and would not easily arouse the jealousy of the courtiers. The second reason was that the Duke of Qi urgently needed someone who was well-known among the people to change the reputation of the Duke of Qi.
It can be thought that after entering the city yesterday, although there were endless congratulations and cheers, there were also loud boos and boos. It seems that not only did Yu Qiansi fail to help the Duke of Qi, but he himself was also stained.
But Yu Qiansi was a man who was always determined to retaliate as rumored. He actually did so many public and private things to avenge himself just because he said "Jade Rakshasa".
I just heard that Yu Qiansi has some relationship with Du Ruozhai
Thinking of this, Boyi shook his head in the dark night. Forget it, after someone comes to help him, he will leave immediately after handling all the matters in the capital. Who did Du Ruozhai's people help, and what does it have to do with him.
The iron chain outside was loose, and the light split through the darkness like a soft sword, and Boyi was shaken so hard that he lost his eyes.
It turned out to be the early morning of the second day. Only then did I suddenly realize that I was a little tired.
The ingenuity of this house turns out to be here. It isolates people from time, regardless of day or night. In the endless darkness in the depths, thinking will be particularly active. You will think about everything you should think about and shouldn't think about.
As a result, you will be exhausted within a few days, and you will have no choice but to be slaughtered by others.
This is indeed not a lynching, but it is more horrific than a lynching.
Looking over again, I saw a figure leaning against the door in the backlight. The bright light outside the door outlined the woman's outline as if she were not there, like an immortal, with an orange-red light emitting from her whole body.
Yu Qiansi was also looking at the man in black with squinted eyes in front of him.
"Bo Yi of Hongzhou Weiran Academy?"
The final note of Shuying's voice was slightly raised. Although it was a question, it was an undoubted affirmation.
Boyi was wearing a black coat and sitting cross-legged, with his back against the wall. He had taken off his dirty coat yesterday and gathered it on one side. Therefore, there was not much odor in the room.
Although he was only wearing mid-length clothes, he was not at all cramped. The young man's posture was free and easy, as relaxed and leisurely as a hawk taking a nap.
Yu Qian raised her eyebrows indiscriminately, so comfortable, was she provoking herself?
However, the situation changed drastically this morning. He could no longer pretend to be calm.
Yu Qiansi held the letter and official documents in her hands, her eyes full of interest, as if a fox had found its prey.
"Bo Yi, why did you come to Beijing?"
Boyi Guo was confident: "I came to visit my old friend on behalf of my father."
She had already found an explanation before entering the capital. She was very careful about her actions and her identity, so she would definitely not be able to find any mistakes. As long as someone came to rescue her, she could only let herself go.
I really want to see the helpless look of Jade Rakshasa at that time.
"Didn't you ask all these questions yesterday? It seems that your efficiency is not very good."
The Bo family does have some old roots in the capital. After all, Weiran Academy is well-known, and many high-ranking dignitaries in Beijing are proud to invite gentlemen from Weiran Academy to set up private schools.
Yu Qiansi pursed his lips. Was he sure that he would not be able to invite those old-fashioned witnesses to testify? Yu Qiansi shook the documents copied from the Ministry of Household Affairs and was too lazy to practice Tai Chi with him again.
"First of all, Boyi has never left Hongzhou and is an only son. According to the rules of Weiran Academy, he should pursue an official career.
But there are thick calluses on the tiger's mouth of your right hand, on the pulp of the five fingers, on the palm of your hand, and on the first joint of the thumb and index finger. The index finger of your left hand is also covered with thick calluses. It must be that you can only be like this if you practice weapons hard every day, and it's not just that."
Yu Qiansi glanced at the locking method of his riding boots with a hint of sarcasm, "Not only that, he is also proficient in riding and shooting. There is no trace of calluses on his hands."
That lock is something that only those who have been working on horses for many years can't do it. Such a neat rice-shaped buckle, coupled with his proficiency in riding and shooting, makes his identity clear at a glance, and he is really full of flaws.
Boyi's father was the eldest son of the third eldest son of the uncle's family in Weiran Academy. Unfortunately, he was too pedantic and only knew how to study hard and did not know how to adapt. Therefore, even though he was born with the same Jinshi, he was never elected to an official position and could only return to Weiran Academy to teach. Such a pedantic person
, coupled with the strict rules of Weiran Academy, how could his only son wield a knife and a gun every day?
"Both, although your personal statement is true. But according to regulations, in order to avoid chaos during the implementation of the new household registration system, each state government starts with officials, followed by farmers, and then those who have not immigrated for three generations.
Residents, followed by craftsmen from all walks of life, then businessmen, and finally residents who have registered in the local area but are less than three generations old. Every time a photo album is issued, three or more relatives are required to prove it."
When Boyi heard this, his heart sank.
Yu Qiansi smiled even more when she saw Boyi's reaction.
"Weiran Academy has only been moved to Hongzhou for more than 20 years, less than three generations, and Hongzhou already has many merchants. The New Deal has only been started for more than a month. You can ask the capital whether there are any merchants from Hongzhou recently? How to get merchants?
You haven't even gotten the photo ID yet, how can you be one step ahead of them?"
Hearing this, Boyi was very angry. She had obviously used this "invite you into the urn" trick on Guang'an Marquis Mansion yesterday, so how could she still fall for it?
Yu Qiansi wore a wanton smile, but every word was cold to the bone.
"Just because you jumped up the ranks and got the photo ID, I'm afraid all of you in Hongzhou and Weiran Academy will be in disaster."
Boyi didn't want to show his timidity and stared at Yu Qiansi with his dark eyes.
But I have to admit that what Yu Qiansi said is true.
There is no need to bother bringing him back to the government. As long as it is revealed that someone from Weiran Academy in Hongzhou has jumped over the hierarchy and obtained the photo ID, those people in Hongzhou who travel all over the country to make a living will be the first to start a fight.
Jade Rakshasa is really difficult to deal with!
As soon as he saw the woman in front of him with her chin raised and her eyes bright, the pain of being hit by a rotten egg yesterday suddenly jumped up. Then he thought that she was from the Duke of Qi's palace. No matter how young and mature Boyi was, he was in a series of embarrassments.
It also made him unable to hold back his anger.
"On the way here, I heard the monk tell you how you solved the murder case. I didn't expect that the rumored Jade Rakshasa was just a little girl who relied on luck!" Boyi said without hesitation, trying to suppress the inexplicable pain in his heart.
Comes angry.
They did talk!
Yu Qiansi was very cooperative and showed just the right amount of curiosity: "You talked with Qingyuan? This is a strange thing. The person who brought the punishment department couldn't get him to talk all the way. He also told you
What?"
Just as Boyi was about to speak, he suddenly came to his senses when he saw Yu Qiansi's fox-like eyes.
"You want to trick me?"
Yu Qiansi did not answer, but picked up the topic about "luck" and continued talking to himself.
"It was indeed my chance encounter with two young monks arguing that inspired me. I don't deny this. But luck is a very important part of the process of handling cases. Luck plus insight can get twice the result with half the effort.
If you're not lucky, I might just pass the clues and not even know about it."
Boyi snorted coldly and spoke eloquently. I don't believe you can always be so lucky.
Yu Qiansi seemed to understand Boyi's unfinished words, as if teasing a dying prey, and said slowly: "I don't know whether I am lucky or not, but your luck is definitely not that good."
Boyi muttered in his heart: Wait, I have been led by this Jade Rakshasa and I have forgotten to think. She treated her early in the morning and asked her about her identity? It must not be that simple. Could it be that the person who came to rescue me has disappeared?
misfortune?
There was a small noise in the distance, as if someone was arguing.
"I have good news and bad news here."
Yu Qiansi seemed to know that Boyi would not pay attention to her. After hearing the voice in the distance, she calmly said to herself: "The good news is that someone is here to guarantee you and prove that you are not a thief."
Hearing this unexpected piece of news coming from Yu Qiansi's mouth, it made Boyi a little confused.
When Yu Qiansi saw that his goal was achieved, he turned his head and saw a plain figure rushing towards them - it was none other than Princess Changsi Yu Anning. Yu Qiansi thought carefully, thinking that Yu Anning was still in Xiaozhong, and said
I went early in the morning to buy a suit of plain clothes for her to change into.
He deliberately raised his voice and lamented: "What a pity. Although you are no longer a thief, you have become a suspect in a murder case."
"You can't leave."
Yu Anning and Boyi, who rushed over panting, were both stunned.
