East Factory Governor

Chapter 291
The old Taoist nodded, put away his things and immediately walked to the backyard.

Not long after, a group of officers and soldiers rushed in, led by a bearded man who seemed to be a head catcher.

Immediately after he came in, he pointed at Qin Shuhuai and the others and said, "Take them all for me!"

Qin Shuhuai sneered, "Take people without asking, is this how you handle cases in Yangzhou Prefecture?"

The bearded man sneered back, "There are only a few of you at the scene of the crime, who would you take if the arrester didn't?"

Hua Chen came up and said, "Then you picked the wrong person." Then she turned to the maid and said, "Girl, please tell this head catcher what's going on."

The servant girl said with tears on her face, "My lord, the servant girl's name is Mingyue, she is a servant girl of the Zhao family. Tonight, seven or eight black-clothed robbers suddenly broke into the house, and they started killing people without any explanation! They went from outside to inside the house. Men, women and children were killed by them in the blink of an eye! My lord, you want to avenge the 36 members of the Zhao family! My lord!"

Mingyue cried heart-rendingly, her eyes were red, and she was on the verge of fainting.

The bearded man just said coldly, "Then why are you still alive?"

Mingyue said, "When the incident happened, I was outside to buy fruit for the lady. When I came back, I saw the door was open. I felt strange. After walking a few steps in, I smelled a strong smell of blood, and then heard a few miserable sounds. When I saw something was wrong, I ran outside immediately, but was discovered by those men in black. They chased them out, and I shouted to kill while running. After running for a while, I happened to meet these heroes, and was caught They saved! My lord, they came to save people, they didn't kill people."

The bearded man snorted coldly, "Based on your one-sided words, how can I trust you? Let's go, all go to the yamen, right and wrong will be straight to the judgment of the Lord."

After speaking, he waved his hands again.Several wolf-like yamen servants rushed forward immediately, picked up the shackles and hinges, and were about to put them on Qin Shuhuai and the others.

Hua Chen raised his hand and slapped a government servant, angrily said, "You're blind! I'm here to save people, not prisoners!"

A cold light flashed in the bearded man's eyes, and he said, "Hmph, resisting arrest, right? I think you are courting death!"

As soon as the voice fell, another group of officers and soldiers poured in from outside with a huff.At the same time, the window was opened, and more than a dozen crossbowmen appeared outside.

Crossbowmen are not the standard equipment of the Yamen, they are only available to the local garrison.

Qin Shuhuai felt that the situation was getting more and more complicated, so he decided to see what these yamen servants were going to do first, so he said, "Well, we will go with you."

Then he took a step forward, raised his hands, and let the yamen servants put the shackles on him.

Zhao Quyou also laughed when he saw this, and said, "Come on, come on, Master Zhao, I haven't tasted the taste of shackles yet, come and give me a taste."

Both of them are masters among masters, these shackles can't restrain them naturally, so it doesn't matter at all.

But Hua Chen hesitated for a while.He is only at the first level of the Mysterious Tongjing Realm, so he will definitely not be able to break free from the shackles.However, seeing that Qin Shuhuai and Zhao Quyou were happily put on the shackles, they were not too worried.

I thought, Brother Qin is very capable, so he should be able to break free from the shackles, but what is the origin of Zhao Quyou?Could it be that he can too?So that means his cultivation is at least above the fifth level of Xiaocheng Realm?
Qin Shuhuai, Hua Chen, and Zhao Quyou were put on chains and hinges, and immediately escorted to the Yangzhou government office.Mingyue was also taken there, but she was not chained.

After arriving at the yamen, the bearded policeman quickly searched them first, but Qin Shuhuai had already handed over all the valuables and things that could prove his identity to the old man, while Hua Chen and Zhao Quyou were just two poor people, so they didn't care about anything. Did not find out.

But the bearded man was not only not disappointed, he also smiled very happily.

"Nothing? Haha, nothing is better!"

After speaking, he took them directly to the prison.

Most of the prisoners in this prison are serious criminals, and many of them are death row prisoners. When they saw Qin Shuhuai and others coming in, they all stretched out their hands through the wooden prison door and howled.

"Wrong, I am wrong!"

"Hey, the boy has thin skin and tender meat, let the men taste it!"

"New here, dare to live in the same room with grandpa, grandpa will make you happy, hahaha."

In the gloomy atmosphere, it feels a bit like a hell.

The three were locked up in different rooms, and according to the officials, they were afraid that they would "steal their confessions".

The bearded man left after putting them in prison, and no one cared about them after that.

Qin Shuhuai's cell was only about fifteen or six square meters, but it housed five prisoners.In addition to him, there are four serious criminals.

"Boy, do you understand the rules in the prison?" One of the leading felons looked at Qin Shuhuai gloomyly and said.

The felon had a tough face and was full of tendons. It was said that he used to be a Jiangyang thief. He was going to be executed two years ago. It happened that Chongzhen ascended the throne and gave the world amnesty, so the execution was changed to imprisonment.

Qin Shuhuai was thinking about the Zhao family's case, so he didn't bother to deal with these serious criminals at all.

"Second Master Qi asked you something, are you dumb?" Another felony prisoner yelled.

Qin Shuhuai was interrupted by his yelling, only then did he realize that there were still four prisoners in the cell.

So he asked, "What did you just say?"

"Second Master Qi asked if you knew the rules in the prison?"

Qin Shuhuai nodded, "I know, I know. Erye Qi is the biggest, I just sit in the corner."

As he spoke, he sat down in a corner of the cell and continued to think about the case of the Zhao Mansion.

But as soon as he sat down, besides Qi Erye, the other three serious criminals came over.

"It's him, who let you sit?"

"You still dare to sit if you know the rules?"

"Brother Biao, it seems that we have to teach him the rules."

The three of them looked down at Qin Shuhuai with a sinister smile on their faces.At the same time, he squeezed his fist, ready to "play".The prison boss came to say hello before, and asked them to "serve" this new kid well, and make him "honest".

The same is true for the cell boss, what do you mean by must?Prisoners who enter our cell, even if they don't have the care of the cell boss, they must be honest!I don't even look at who is locked in this prison, but that is Erye Qi, the famous thief king in Jiangsu and Zhejiang back then!

Qin Shuhuai knew that the visitors were not friendly, so he sighed and said to them, "Guys, I think it's better not to explain the rules too carefully, otherwise it will be inconvenient for you to follow."

"Huh? I didn't hear what you said, man, can you say it again?" The man called "Biao Brother" among the three had a grim face and pressed forward step by step.

Qin Shuhuai said, "Okay then, tell me, what is the first rule?"

Brother Biao laughed grimly, "Are you afraid? I thought it was a hard thorn. Listen carefully, the first rule is to enter the door and respect the boss."

"Oh? How about respecting the Fa?"

"Simple. Put your head on the ground, put your hands on your back, keep your legs straight, and raise your butt."

Qin Shuhuai nodded and said, "Oh, that's it, how long do we have to keep this posture?"

"How long?" Brother Biao laughed loudly, "Others will be fine in half an hour, as for you, it depends on the man's mood. By the way, little brother, the man likes you very much and plans to give you some food."
