There is enough Li Pu's travel, starting from the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 422
The three of them walked all the way, and they arrived in front of Yingtianfu City not long after.

As the largest mansion in the south of the Yangtze River, Yingtian Mansion has an extremely large city scale, and the imperial court also set up six small departments in Yingtian Mansion. Among them, the person in charge of Yingtian Mansion's big and small affairs is Yingtian Mansion Yin, Mr. Zhang, who is in Zuo Qianhu.

After the three of them entered the city, Ning Caichen looked at the bustling pedestrians on the street and the peddlers on both sides of the street.

There was a strong contrast between the prosperity of Yingtian Mansion and the desolate and weird village last night.

That village is only half a day's journey away from Yingtian Mansion, and there are demons running rampant not far from the prosperity of humanity, which really makes people feel a little unreal.

On the riverside of Yingtianfu, there are countless boats docked on the broad water of the Yangtze River.

Some ships are very simple and have a very deep draft. Every time they arrive at the shore, a large number of dock workers will step forward to unload the cargo. The workers carry their hands on their shoulders at an extremely fast speed.

Some ships are painted with dragons and phoenixes, and the decorations are extremely gorgeous. From time to time, a pretty face or a section of lotus-white arm is exposed from the window of the cabin.

Some of the dock workers who watched dry mouthed.

Going further inside are all kinds of residences, these residences are connected together, some are only as small as a small courtyard, some are extremely luxurious, there is even a mansion, which occupies less than half of the inner city of Yingtianfu.

"Whose mansion is this? Why is it so luxurious?"

Ning Caichen looked at the only trace of scenery exposed from the door, and he had a glimpse of the prosperity of this mansion.

"I don't know about this mansion. I only know that it is a businessman. At first I heard that this mansion is not so huge. After decades of expansion, it has reached such a point."

Zuo Qianhu was like a host, introducing the various scenes in Yingtianfu City to the two of them, and arrived in front of Yingtianfu Yin's yamen not long after.

"Brother Geng, Brother Ning, I'll go in first and talk to Mr. Zhang."

After finishing speaking, Zuo Qianhu raised his leg and walked into the yamen, after a while Zuo Qianhu came out, calling Li Pu and Ning Caichen to go in.

Under the leadership of Zuo Qianhu, the two were not in the lobby of the yamen, but directly came to the backyard of the yamen.

In the backyard, I saw a man over half a century old with gray hair drinking tea.

After Zuo Qianhu saw this person, he bowed his hands and bowed.

"Master Zhang, I'm talking about these two people, who killed the evil tiger demon and the ghost pretending to be the magistrate for the people."

Master Zhang raised his head and looked at Li Pu and Ning Caichen after hearing this.

"Okay! What a hero out of a teenager, the two of you are young, but they have done this, they are really heroes."

Although this man is over half a hundred years old, he speaks with a full of air, and it seems that he is not an ordinary person.

"Your Majesty Fu Yin has given you too much credit."

Ning Caichen was a little embarrassed to see that Mr. Zhang praised him so much, but Li Pu just smiled and bowed his head as a gesture.

"I admire the actions of the two of you very much, but the magistrate of Ningguo Prefecture was murdered by ghosts, so I can only report to the court. The court doesn't believe in ghosts and ghosts at all. This is a difficult task."

The grown-up seemed a little embarrassed, and then continued to speak.

"The only way now is to take the two of you into custody first, wait for me to personally write a letter explaining the key points, and then let the two of you go away?"

"This……"

Zuo Qianhu didn't expect that even though Mr. Zhang believed in the theory of ghosts, he still wanted to take Li Pu and Li Pu into custody.

"Don't worry, it's only temporarily detained, and the two heroes will not be treated badly!"

Mr. Zhang said righteously, Zuo Qianhu looked at Li Pu with some embarrassment when he saw this.

Because according to the procedure of the imperial court, it is necessary to do so, because the two of Li Pu did murder, as to whether it was a ghost or not, it can only be determined by the imperial court.

You must know that killing an official is tantamount to rebellion, not to mention Zuo Qianhu, even this Yingtian Fu Yin can't stand it.

"Hahaha, Mr. Zhang is wise and will clear up my grievances, but it will only be a few days, and I can afford to wait."

Li Pu smiled calmly, Ning Caichen wanted to say something, but closed his mouth again.

"Come here! Send the two heroes to prison, and you must not treat them badly."

Following Master Zhang's order, several yamen servants walked into the small courtyard, stepped forward to detain Li Pu and Ning Caichen, and one of them wanted to take away the sickle and lantern from Li Pu's waist. Li Pu held down the hand of the yamen servant. .

"It's like this. As a watchman, I usually get inexplicably flustered when I don't have a lantern in my hand. Please forgive me, Lord Fu Yin."

Seeing what Li Pu said, Mr. Zhang nodded when he saw that the lantern was old and worn out.

Seeing Mr. Zhang nodded, the yamen servant grabbed Li Pu's sickle again, and Li Pu held it down again.

"As a farmer who watches at night and reaps wheat during the day, it makes sense for me to have a sickle in my hand, right?"

Mr. Zhang checked the sickle in Li Pu's hand again, and found that the sickle was so rusty that it took a lot of effort to cut wheat, let alone hurt people.

Master Zhang nodded again.

Only then did the yamen servant let go of Li Pu's sickle, and led Li Pu and Ning Caichen down.

Li Pu and Ning Caichen were taken to a remote prison by several government servants.

It is said to be prisons, but each one is huge. Li Pu and Ning Caichen were locked in one of the prisons.

The prison is backed by the inner city, just on the other side of the extremely gorgeous compound.

After arranging the two, not long after, a yamen servant came in with food. The yamen servant put the lunch box on the ground and took out all kinds of food from it. There were chickens, fish, wine and meat, but Mr. Zhang said To do so, did not treat them badly.

After a while, Zuo Qianhu walked in with an apologetic face.

"You two, I..."

"Needless to say, the imperial court has its own laws."

Seeing what Li Pu said, Zuo Qianhu sat down to drink with Li Pu.

"Zuo Qianhu, do you think Mr. Zhang is a good official?"

"How can Brother Geng ask such a question?"

Seeing Li Pu speak like this, Zuo Qianhu's expression changed drastically.

"It's nothing, I just hope that you'd better not go out to Yingtian Mansion these two days."

After thinking about it, Zuo Qianhu nodded.

It has been three days since he was taken into custody. During these three days, Li Pu's requirements and these government servants were fulfilled as much as possible until the afternoon of the fourth day.

As usual, a yamen servant came in with all kinds of food, still so rich.

But different from the previous days, after watching Li Pu and Ning Caichen finish their meal, the yamen servant collected the food box and turned to leave.

After a while Li Pu heard that all the government servants outside the prison had left, leaving only Li Pu and Ning Caichen in the prison.

At this time, Ning Caichen was already drowsy. Normally, Ning Caichen would read books for two more hours to contribute to his imperial examination dream, but today he fell to the ground and fell asleep soundly. .
