After losing the vest at the beginning, the female general was forced to marry the scheming prince

Chapter 97 The South Vietnamese Prison
After leaving the barracks of the Nanyi border guards, the three of them headed to Jianghuai, and the first town they would pass was Nanyue.

South Vietnam used to be a barren land, but since the previous dynasty, the prisoners have been exiled here. After a long time, it has become a rather lively place.

But it's also a mixed bag.

It was not so smooth for the three of them to enter Nanyue City. The soldiers guarding the gate of the city did not intend to let them in after checking the customs clearance certificates of the three, but asked them to wait.

Qu Chu naturally understood what they meant, what they wanted was "passing money", but she had her own purpose, so the soldiers asked her to wait while she waited.

However, Qu Chu's eyes were not idle, she saw clearly all the people going to and from the city gate.

Seeing that Qu Chu didn't respond, Yan Hong would naturally not be troublesome, and quietly followed Qu Chu and waited.

This wait is half an hour.

How could Ning Youbei have been so pickled? He became impatient and asked Qu Chu: "What do they mean?"

Only then did Qu Chu answer him: "Oh, they want money."

Ning Youbei said angrily: "Why do you need to collect money? We have a certificate of customs clearance, why don't you let us in?"

Qu Chu wanted Ning Youbei to experience the chaos in different cities for himself, and said, "Why don't you go and reason with them?"

Ning Youbei was really angry.

It's not that he doesn't have silver, but he doesn't want to give it to these soldiers like this.

If you have to pay to enter a city, how can you promote the circulation and the development of commerce?

He does not want to encourage this unhealthy tendency.

Ning You went up to the north and questioned a gatekeeper who looked like the team leader, "What do you mean? We have customs clearance documents, why don't we let us enter the city?"

The leader turned his nostrils to the sky, "I suspect that your customs clearance document is fake, so I'm going to verify it. You will wait here until the verification result comes out."

"You read so many customs clearance documents here every day, can't you tell whether they are true or not? Our customs clearance documents are stamped by the government."

The team leader glanced at Ning Youbei, and thought to himself, why is this person so dishonest?You're still a businessman, why can't you figure out this point?
Looking at it this way, the team leader really became suspicious, because Ning Youbei didn't look like a businessman at all.

If Ning Youbei had given them money, they would naturally not care so much. The problem is that now Ning Youbei not only refused to give them money, but also asked them to reason, so it would make things difficult for them.

The leader waved his hand, and several soldiers came up immediately.

"I suspect that their customs clearance documents are stolen from others, take them away!"

Ning Youbei was really angry, and when he was about to teach them a lesson, Qu Chu grabbed him.

Ning Youbei looked at Qu Chu, and Qu Chu shook his head slightly.

Ning Youbei understood what Qu Chu meant, and told him not to resist.

But why he wasn't allowed to resist, he didn't understand.

When Ning Youbei had a dispute with the team leader, Qu Chu gave Yanhong her package and black iron knife, and told her to find a way to sneak into the city and wait.

……

It was the first time that Ning Youbei entered the cell as a perpetrator, but fortunately he was not separated from Qu Chu.

After the guards in the cell left, Ning Youbei asked Qu Chu: "Why don't you let me teach them a lesson?"

Qu Chu looked around the cell, "Because I want to go into the cell to have a look."

When entering the cell just now, Qu Chu observed carefully. There were quite a few people in the Nanyue cell, and none of the cells was empty. There were six people in the cell next to them, and several cells in the opposite cell.

Ning Youbei still didn't understand Qu Chu's intention, "What do you want to see? And how do you get out after you come in?"

Qu Chu signaled Ning Youbei not to ask more questions, "I'll tell you after I get out."

Seeing that Qu Chu knew it well, Ning Youbei didn't ask any further questions.It's just that the conditions in the cell are so bad that Ning Youbei dared not sit down.

Seeing him, Qu Chu took off his cloak and spread it along the wall, "Sit on it."

Ning Youbei sat on the cloak and greeted Qu Chu: "Ah Chu, sit down too!"

Qu Chu didn't sit down.

The cell they were in now was separated from the cell next door by an iron railing. She took out a bag of dried meat from her bosom and went to the railing.

"I have a bag of jerky here, and I want to ask you a few questions."

After speaking, Qu Chu pulled a piece of jerky and chewed it himself.

Immediately a person came over.

"What are you locked in for?"

The man replied: "I was imprisoned because I stole a few chickens from my neighbor. He was imprisoned because he broke something belonging to the owner and had no money to pay. He was..."

This person answered five people, all because of trivial matters.

Qu Chu pointed to the people in the opposite cell and asked, "Then do you know why they came in?"

The man replied, "They're all pretty much the same. They're all trivial matters. They'll be locked up for ten days and half a month, and then released."

Qu Chu pointed to an old man in the next cell and asked, "Then why did he come in?"

"He..." The man looked at the jerky in Qu Chu's hand and didn't answer.

Qu Chu gave this person 1/3 bag of jerky.

After the man took the jerky, he replied even more slickly: "He is a frequent visitor here, and he comes in every two days, and the reasons for coming in are all kinds of strange."

Qu Chudao: "Stay and eat together?"

"how do you know?"

Qu Chu saw that the old man's expression was different from other people's, and he didn't look disgusted or panicked at all, instead he felt at ease.

Think of the prison as a home.

There are only two possibilities for such a person, either he committed a felony and was imprisoned for a long time, or he came in every day.

Since the man said just now that the old man came in every day, and the reasons for coming in were all kinds of strange, he must have entered the cell for the purpose of entering the cell.

What causes such an old man to come in voluntarily?Usually it is because there are no relatives, no place to live, no money to eat.

However, if you want to inquire about the situation, you still need to find such an old oilman.

Qu Chu made up his mind and set his sights on the old man.She didn't continue to ask, and gave all the jerky to this person.

"Everyone eat something!"

……

After distributing the jerky, Qu Chu returned to Ning Youbei and sat down.

Ning Youbei asked, "Did you ask what you wanted to ask?"

He had been paying attention to what Qu Chu was doing just now, and when she saw her asking a few questions, he gave up.But those questions are nothing special!
Qu Chu shook his head, "I haven't started asking yet."

Ning Youbei asked curiously: "Then why don't you continue to ask?"

Qu Chu said: "Not yet."

This made Ning Youbei even more confused, but Qu Chu had already fallen asleep with his back against the wall.
