Chapter 5 Guilty

Daoyi finally had a full meal, she is really not picky.

Hmph, it wasn't really a crime in the first place, why can't you feel at ease?

Just as he was about to refute, he glanced at the little boy and looked at County Magistrate Liu seemingly unintentionally.She immediately changed her words, "So what, as long as I don't die for a day, I can't eat enough and sleep well. What's the reason for this? Or is your government just arresting people like this?"

Daoyi didn't know what crime magistrate Liu had convicted her, but she was not stupid, the appearance of this official was a turning point.

If Master hadn't said, don't offend the government, otherwise the consequences would be very serious. Even if she had no strength yesterday, she could win a few people and escape if she fought hard. Moreover, she looked down at the deformed corpse. There are grievances.

Daoyi's reaction and cooperation made Xiaotong heave a sigh of relief and became more vigilant.

Such a smart person, if he really committed a crime, it may be difficult to find evidence of the crime.

Dao only wanted to speak for the corpse, completely unaware that he had already committed several serious crimes.

"Hmph, let your mouth be stubborn, wait until tomorrow my family minister comes back, report to the court, and sentence you to death, let's see what else you can be proud of." Xiaotong seemed to be disdainful, and rushed to make a conclusion before County Magistrate Liu opened his mouth.

Huh, Dao let out a mouthful of the foul air in the prison. Fortunately, there will be a conclusion tomorrow.

In the later days, this corpse is really not easy to preserve.

County Magistrate Liu echoed, "Master Xiaotong is right, you little Taoist, don't practice well in the temple, and run down the mountain to commit crimes."

"Hey, by the way, which Taoist temple you come from, I'm going to ask for an explanation." County Magistrate Liu suddenly remembered that if you have a teacher, you must be rich.

Dao Yi: "——I haven't committed any crimes, so why bother my teacher?"

"Just relying on this county to do things for the court, why do you want to fight against the court?" County magistrate Liu is really courageous and dares to dig any pit.

Xiaotong said in time, "Magistrate Liu, this man is going to be interrogated by the Minister of the Temple tomorrow. We will have the trial today, and the Minister of the Temple will make a decision in the end."

Thinking of Wang Xuanzhi's various actions after he arrived in Pu County, County Magistrate Liu felt that it was really possible, and if he didn't give him face, if he could try this little Taoist priest today, that person might be able to overturn his trial tomorrow.

Magistrate Liu thought he was smart enough not to do such a thing that would upset his face.

"Hmph!!!" Magistrate Liu shook his sleeves and left in anger.

There are many people in the prison.

Xiaotong didn't want to say anything clearly, he just said: "Little Taoist priest, don't hurt this corpse. If the minister of the temple comes back tomorrow, if you don't see this corpse, your crime will become more serious."

Oh, I got it!Save the body!

Well, the same goal.

Dao and Xiaotong rose from strangers to strangers all at once.

Xiao Tong was frightened by her enthusiastic eyes, and his expression was very distorted. This kind of eyes is usually only seen in Siqing's trips, and those girls' homes on Chang'an Avenue.

Does the little Taoist really have some special hobbies?

Xiao Tong's eyes turned back and forth on the corpse on the prison floor.

Daoyi understood: I understand, I understand, we must take good care of this corpse.

Xiao Tong: This fiery gaze really makes people feel uncomfortable.

When County Magistrate Liu put the corpse together with Daoyi, she secretly rejoiced that the corpse could be preserved in a clear and orderly manner.

Well, Daoyi only sees corpses now, but he doesn't know, if Xiaotong didn't come here.

It is very likely that she will die in the prison in Pu county together with this corpse.

"Don't worry, officer, I will help you take care of this corpse." Daoyi patted his chest and promised.

Xiaotong walked out of the county government prison in a daze, and he always felt that something was wrong.

He didn't react until he saw Magistrate Liu.This corpse has something to do with him, so the little Taoist priest wants to help me preserve it.

But thinking of Wang Xuanzhi's order, Xiaotong gritted his teeth and left.

The next day.

Wang Xuanzhi left the inn in tact, went to Pu County to inquire about news and came back, as soon as Fu entered the house, before he was seated, he heard Xiaotong's report, he planned to deal with the news he heard outside first, so he had to see Xiaotong first.

Xiao Tong has always been prudent, it was the first time that he was in such a hurry as today, it seems that there was a lot of trouble in the matter of the little Taoist priest.

It's just that when he listened to Xiaotong's talk about what happened in the prison yesterday, he was also shocked. His usually unsteady face was full of astonishment, and he even blurted out, "Could the little Taoist be a fool?"

Xiaotong looked at him in shock, his eyes were full of disbelief: My husband, who is as sharp as a knife, is as sharp as a grinder, and he can scold people when he comes to Pu County. Is it really a troublemaker out of poor mountains and rivers?

Wang Xuanzhi was looked at very uncomfortable: If I explain it now, it means literally, is there still time?
In order to alleviate his gaffe, he asked: "So you and that little Taoist priest made an agreement to deal with the dead body today."

"Yes, sir!" Xiao Tong let out a breath inadvertently, and the familiar Si Qing came back again.

Judging from Xiaotong's words just now, if the little Taoist priest hadn't been for Fang Xiashan, the kind whose brains are not very good, this kind of trial could be released directly, but she can understand the mystery of Xiaotong's words, look It's not really a fool.

If it is another possibility.

Wang Xuanzhi thought of the news he had found in the past few days, and his eyes were filled with turmoil.

"Let's go, let's go to the prison of the county government." Wang Xuanzhi lowered his eyes slightly, retracting the shadow of swords and swords inside, and said calmly.

"Brother Cha, what is there to eat today?" Dao Yi frowned with a smile at the jailer who delivered the food.

I haven't seen any kind of prisoner in the prison all day long, but it's rare to see someone like Daoyi, because she really smiles happily, not just to please them.

The face that was supposed to be stern, also subconsciously relaxed.

They are also very clear about the character of the county magistrate. After they felt that Dao Yi was a fool, they felt sympathy. If you commit a crime of retreating from the wall, it counts.

When Wang Xuanzhi arrived in the prison, he thought he would see a miserable little Taoist priest, but after being imprisoned all night, the Taoist priest with a pure and innocent face was hard at work, and from time to time he would communicate with the jailer friendly, and his smile seemed to be able to dispel The musty smell in the prison.

The prisoner next to him dared not speak out.

Wang Xuanzhi almost suspected that he had gone to the wrong place, after all the prison was divided into several places.

There is still a final struggle to be done, and Dao Yi has already seen them.

"Officer Xiaotong, you are here!" Dao Yi's very cheerful shout sounded.

When the prisoners, wardens, and prison chiefs all turned their heads to look at the door, even Wang Xuanzhi looked back at him. Xiaotong's face instantly turned red. It was the first time he felt his name, and he felt embarrassed when someone called him. Feel.

When Mingming came here, the prison guards and the others also called them this way.

I can't figure it out, but I can only blame it on that little Taoist priest. I'm afraid it's some kind of evil method. He must be optimistic about his temple minister today, so as not to be deceived, that would be a great sin.

The prison door is wide open.

Wang Xuanzhi walked against the light, like an immortal descending from the earth, comparable to a prison is a sky, a ground, he seemed to be strolling in a leisurely courtyard, and walked lightly to the cell where Dao Yi was imprisoned.

Inscribed on the side: Guiwei.

Prisoners are classified according to their ranks according to the heavenly stems and earthly branches of the prison.

Daoyi is almost at the gate, in Guiweijian.

Prisoners in Guiweijian committed minor crimes at most, this is something both prisoners and officials understand.

Daoyi just went down the mountain, she didn't know.

So at the first sentence of Wang Xuanzhi, she was stunned.

"Little Taoist priest, do you know that you have committed the crime of beheading?" Wang Xuanzhi was uncharacteristically, instead of convicting the criminals earlier, he was directly convicted.

Xiaotong on the side wanted to say something: Si Qing needn't vent his anger on Xiaotong.

Prisoner: Are all the officials from the capital so vicious?

The prisoners hugged themselves hard. They were trembling at first, but now they trembled even more. The official looked young, but his heart was already so vicious. What if he fell in love with them and pulled them out to kill them?
The prisoners who were still joining in the fun just now have squatted back to the corner to get moldy.

It's really such a head-scratching excitement that they can't afford it.

The moment he discovered Wang Xuanzhi, Daoyi felt that if their patriarch and master became immortal and became young again, he should be like this person.

But when this person opens his mouth, let her know that it is all an appearance to deceive the world.

But this man's face told her that this man was not bad, as for his dark thoughts, Dao Yi couldn't see him for the time being in order to get out of prison.

And he can influence the decision of magistrate Liu, either the official position is higher than the other party, or smarter than the other party.

Looking at the young man's clothes again, I tried to recall what Master said about the nobles of the court.

She has a decision to hold on to the life-saving straw in front of her.

Whether he can be released from prison or not depends on the Minister of the Temple. Daoyi thought that if he could settle this matter again, he would try his best to make a living with the Minister of the Temple.

Just now she heard that the jailer guarding the prison called him Dali Siqing.The pilgrims of Jiuxiao Temple have mentioned Dali Temple, which was in charge of prisons and detailed punishments by the Zhou court.

It was the purpose of her trip. Now that Dali Siqing is here, she must seize the opportunity.

The prison in Chang'an, I heard that it is the most prosperous place.How many people are reluctant to leave, maybe there are more obsessive souls in the prison cell of Dali Temple, it would be great to be able to work with this minister.

As soon as Dao made a decision, she knew what to do.

"I just passed by Pu County, so why should I be guilty? A fat county arrested me before, and now this god. Siqing directly said that I committed the crime of beheading. Where is my crime?" Dao Yi said completely. He looked dumbfounded.

Fat county magistrate. County magistrate Liu popped up in everyone's minds. The picture is so beautiful that I can't think about it anymore. Are there gods? Immortals?Glancing at Wang Xuanzhi, all the jailers and prisoners nodded in unison.

Wang Xuanzhi: "Look at him." He pointed with a finger that was as white as jade, and after one night, the corpse changed in many ways.

Everyone:. This is to disregard human lives, right?

Dao Yi looked at the corpse that had been soaked in water and spent another night with him in the prison. While she was sleeping, the mouse gnawed on a lot of meat, and fell into deep thought. Could it be that she is really guilty?
Dao didn't understand the law at a glance, she was in a hurry!

Hey, there is!

Tao immediately burst into tears, and the deafening cry rang out in the prison.

The jailer and others thought that County Magistrate Liu had something to do, so he ran away when he wanted to go out. The poor prisoner had nowhere to go, and his head hurt from the shock.

Xiao Tong didn't expect this, and under Wang Xuanzhi's signal, he also went out to guard the gate, but he didn't think about it for a while, he wanted to keep an eye on Si Qing's affairs.

Everyone left in pain.

One of Wang Xuan's expressions was composed, and he even put on a few smiles.

He moved a little closer to the cell door, and the smell of corpses in the cell rushed into his nostrils in an instant.

Wang Xuanzhi's smile froze, and then he regained his calmness, approached and said gently: "Of course, if you answer my question honestly, I will keep you and your teacher safe. .”

"I will definitely tell Si Qing the truth!" Dao smiled through his tears and nodded sharply.

She breathed a sigh of relief in her heart, as long as she was willing to listen to others, it was not in vain that she shed so many tears, how many pots of water would she have to drink to make up for it, but it is not a bad thing to be able to wash her eyes once.

She was afraid that there would be another County Magistrate Liu, who would say that I don't care, and say that you are guilty, and there is no way to communicate at all. She was really afraid, afraid that she couldn't help it, and punched him in the face with a fist.

Then, is he really guilty?

……

 I suspect that I don't have access to the Internet, and the whole process is stand-alone codewords!
