Changping Prison, cell.

The atmosphere here was extremely solemn at this time. After learning that Zishi was going to be executed at three o'clock, all the hunters fell silent.

a long time.

The old man surnamed Tie said: "Nanny, what did you give to Magistrate Sun just now?"

Silver fish charms were only owned by a few high-ranking officials, so they had never seen them.

The little girl looked confused and said: "I don't know what it is. Brother just said that when you meet a bad guy, just show it."

"He also said that no matter who sees it, he will not dare to bully us again."

Hearing these words, the old man shook his head in disappointment. He thought it was something to save his life, but it turned out to be Fan Renyan's words to fool the little girl.

When he was rescuing people, he paid special attention to the fact that Fan Renyan did not appear to be a distinguished person, let alone a high-ranking official of the imperial court who paid a private visit incognito.

Judging from the way he is dressed, he looks like a poor scholar studying hard in a cold window.

Expecting such people to save everyone from prison is ultimately thinking too much.

"Xiao Nan, you were deceived by that guy. The clothes he wears are not even as good as ours. How can he save everyone?"

"You'd better give up on this idea." As a person who has experienced this, Cheng Zhuzhu really couldn't bear the thought of his daughter dying with hope.

"Yes, little girl, scholars are the most spendthrift, so you'd better accept your fate."

"I'm afraid we won't survive tonight with such a dog officer on the stall." Several other hunters followed suit.

However, no matter what everyone said, Cheng Xiaonan always believed that the gentle brother did not lie to him.

Since he said the cards were useful, it would definitely save his life.

Seeing this, everyone sighed and closed their eyes and waited for the arrival of the third hour.

After half a stick of incense, a fire suddenly lit up in the dark corridor. Two jailers came over carrying food boxes and knocked on the iron bars.

"Hurry up and eat your food, and then you can hit the road!" After that, nine bowls of white rice were placed on the ground, with a chicken butt on each top.

Seeing the decapitated meal, a hunter cried and ran to the iron fence and shouted.

"Master, we are wronged!"

"Whoever comes in and doesn't cry out for injustice, hurry up and eat. If you dare to scream again, I will beat you to death!"

"Master..."

Seeing Orion clinging to his uniform, the jailer's eyes flashed with a fierce look and he pulled out his whip and tried to whip him away.

At the critical moment, a loud shout sounded in the corridor.

"stop!"

"County Magistrate Zhang, what are you doing?" Seeing Magistrate Sun walking over with a bundle of thorns on his back, the jailer put away his whip with a hint of confusion in his eyes.

When he came closer, Magistrate Zhang slapped the jailer twice in the face without saying a word.

"I have warned you again and again on weekdays that officials must love the people under their jurisdiction and must never let them suffer any injustice."

"But you are so willing to take out your whip and beat the people. Do you know that you are guilty?"

The jailer covered his face and was shocked. He never thought that Magistrate Zhang would say these words.

Is this still the same Zhang Rooster who plucks his feathers and is greedy for money?

"Get out of the way!" Giving the jailer a fierce look, Magistrate Zhang came to the little girl with a smile on his face and took out the silver fish charm.

"Little girl, I want to ask you what is your relationship with the owner of this half fish charm?"

Cheng Xiaonan took the fish talisman and thought about it for a while and said in a childish voice: "Brother said before he left, all he had to do was show this sign when he encountered someone who bullied me."

"No one in Youzhou dares to hurt us unless he doesn't want to live anymore."

Hearing these words, Magistrate Zhang suddenly became excited. There was no doubt that this girl named Xiao Nan must have a special relationship with that high official.

And it is not difficult to tell from the other party's words that the grade is at least fourth grade or above, otherwise he would not be able to say the whole word "Youzhou".

In recent years, I have been worried about not having a supporter to support me. Now, isn't this an opportunity?

After thinking about this, the smile on Magistrate Zhang's face became warmer.

"Your brother is right. With this fish charm, no one in Youzhou can harm you."

"Come on, untie the shackles of my god-sister and the folks in Dawang Village."

"We are all from the countryside, how can you be so cruel?"

The faces of several jailers changed slightly and they hurriedly tried to persuade them: "Ming Mansion, these are the people the Governor's Mansion wants to kill. We can't afford to let them go."

Magistrate Sun said angrily: "Stupid, don't you go to the streets and catch a few beggars to make up for your income?"

"Yes, yes, Ming Mansion was thoughtful." Several jailers nodded and bowed and left the prison.

When the prison calmed down, Magistrate Zhang was about to inquire about the owner of the fish charm, when a yamen servant ran over and hugged him.

"Reporting to the Ming Dynasty, Lieutenant Tan County is asking for an audience in the hall. It seems that something has happened."

"Tan Yue?" Magistrate Zhang frowned and thought for a moment, then said to the little girl.

"Sister, we will be a family from now on. You will go to the back office to rest for a while. After I have received Captain Tan, we will go to Tai Feng Tower for a big meal."

"The government will send a car to take you home tomorrow." After saying this, he walked out of the prison in front of everyone's stunned eyes.

quiet!

The whole cell was eerily quiet, and all the hunters stared blankly at the little girl, with disbelief in their eyes.

They never expected that what Xiaonan said was true, that the sign could really save their lives.

I didn't even expect that the young scholar's status was so high.

It was so high that even the seventh-grade county magistrate had to plead guilty.

So the question is, who is he?

"I remember he seems to be from Xiaolianzi Village. Let's go and visit him with some things?" Cheng Zhuzhu asked.

The old man waved his hand: "Forget it, since Mr. Fan has not revealed his identity to us, everyone should just pretend not to know."

"When the time comes, let's go to Xiaolianzi Village to express our thanks. Tsk, tsk, I've always been proud of these eyes. I never thought that one day I would miss them."

……

County government hall.

Tan Yue sat on the chair, his brows tightly knitted together, his face extremely solemn.

This case was different from usual. It was the governor's office who wanted to kill people. It was said that even Magistrate Zhang did not dare to let people go without permission.

The reason why he brought his father-in-law and Fan Xin in was simply to show that he had tried his best.

After pondering for a while, he turned to Fan Zhonghua and said, "Master Taishan, this case is decided by the governor's office. It's extremely difficult to save people. You'd better be mentally prepared."

Seeing everyone's solemn expressions, Fan Xin smiled and comforted.

"Brother-in-law, you are serious. Youzhou is a place governed by law. Changping County does not dare to kill people indiscriminately." With his own fish charm, he believed that the Youzhou government was not crazy enough.

Tan Yue was feeling frustrated because of the unfavorable situation. When he heard this, he immediately became angry and out of breath.

"What do you know as a person who has been kicked out of his official position? He is the biggest governor in Youzhou. Who dares to save the people he wants to kill?"

"No wonder you can't survive in the officialdom. You think too simplistically when things happen."

"Come to the county government office in a few days and work as a clerk, and learn from your brother-in-law."

Fan Zhonghua nodded in agreement: "Xin'er, your brother-in-law can become a Zhengjiupin county captain at the age of thirty. He can be said to be the most capable person in our eight villages."

"It wouldn't hurt to learn some skills from him."

A loud voice sounded outside the door of the talking room.

"Magistrate Zhang is here!"
