Chapter 238
The magistrate of Yuwen summoned that person to come in. It was a thin woman. She looked timid and glutinous. When she came in, she knelt down and saluted: "The woman has seen you."

The magistrate of Yuwen County put on an amiable and loving manner and said, "Madam, please, have you met Miss Yang?"

The woman whispered: "Your Excellency is talking about Miss Yang from the Dianzhuang Pavilion? If so, the women have seen her tonight."

Yuwen Zhixian nodded: "It's Miss Yang from Dianzhuang Pavilion. When and where did you meet her tonight? Where is she now?"

The woman said: "The little lady sells wontons at the street corner for a living. Today, I saw Miss Yang asking her guards to buy candied haws, but someone came out of the alley and put a sack on her head and dragged her away. I often come to our stall to eat wontons, and my husband and I have a good relationship with her, so my husband told me to watch the stall and followed up."

Yu Wenyi asked again: "Then why are you here to report the case now?"

The woman said: "Responding to your lord's words, the guy from my family came back in a hurry not long ago and told me that Miss Yang was taken into a yard by the thief, and she was locked up after hearing the news. He was afraid that something would happen to Miss Yang, so he came back and let me know." I hurried to report to some makeup pavilions, and he went back to that yard to look at Miss Yang."

Yu Wenyi stroked his beard and said, "Your husband and wife are quite loyal."

The woman said: "Miss Yang usually takes care of us a lot, but now that she is in trouble, we will naturally help if we can."

The magistrate of Yuwen asked again: "Ma'am, do you know where this yard is?"

The woman nodded and said, "I know, I know, my guy told me where he was before he left."

So the old lady led the way, and the group went to the courtyard where Yang Fengxian was said to be imprisoned.Pei Xiaoyao hung behind and followed, not very worried, anyway, the old woman and her husband were both from Anbu, obviously only the old woman's husband was there, but secretly there were many people staring at the yard.

Yuwen Zhixian followed the old woman to turn left and right, and came to a very ordinary courtyard, where there was indeed an old man standing there.

The old man saw his mother-in-law leading a group of people who looked like officials, so he went forward and said: "Old lady, you have come, I have been watching here, Miss Yang has not been transported out yet."

The magistrate of Yuwen watched the expressions of Zhou Wenshu and Shi Jiezhong stealthily, and saw that Shi Jiezhong's face was pale, and Zhou Wenshu was not much better that day, so he knew that Yang Fengxian was probably here.

The old woman tugged on the old man's sleeve and said in a low voice, "The head of the house, this is the magistrate of the county government."

Only then did the old man notice that there was another person in an official uniform, and quickly knelt down to salute.The magistrate of Yuwen helped him up and asked, "Miss Yang is in the yard?"

The old man replied respectfully: "My lord, yes, the villain has been watching here, and no one has come out."

Yuwen Zhixian's face sank, and he ordered: "Let me go in and find it!"

The yamen servant stepped forward and kicked open the door. The guard who heard the movement wanted to take him down, but when he saw the official uniform, his legs were weak and he did not dare to act rashly.

It didn't take long for the yamen servants to search, and someone came out to report: "My lord, Miss Yang was locked in the firewood room. She is fine now, but the door of the firewood room is locked. We tried it, but the knife couldn't open it."

A group of people entered the courtyard and gathered in front of the woodshed.The surrounding servants were also restrained, and they knelt on the ground with their hands tied.

Zhou Wenshu winked, and one of the servants took a few steps on his knees, knelt down in front of Shi Jiezhong, and burst into tears: "Master, what should we do, sir, we don't want to die, save me!" Save us!"

Yuwen Zhixian glanced at Shi Jiezhong for a few times, and Shi Jiezhong broke out in sweat. He kicked the servant down and said in a panic: "What are you talking about? What master? I don't know you , don't talk nonsense!"

Another servant also cried and said: "Master, we have done so many things for you, you can't cross the river, tear down bridges, unload mills and kill donkeys! We don't want to die!!!"

A group of servants began to cry, and when Yuwen Zhixian frowned, Cai Wenshu scolded very discerningly: "Shut up!"

The magistrate of Yuwen said leisurely, "Shi Jiezhong, I don't care if it's you or Zhou Wenshu, as things have come to this, let's hand over the keys to the woodshed."

Shi Jiezhong gritted his teeth. Although the house does not belong to him, the key to the firewood room is with him.What Zhou Wenshu said was good at the beginning, for the two of them to work together and trust each other, Zhou Wenshu used Zhou Wenshu's house, but the key to the prisoner was placed with him. I didn't expect him to come up with such an idea.

But at this time, two strong men can kick the door open. If the key is found on him, it will be impossible to resist, so he can only grit his teeth and stare at the surrounding area. The clerk: "Okay, Mr. Zhou, you really have a good plan."

Zhou Wenshu pretended to be puzzled: "What is shopkeeper Shi talking about? Why can't I understand?"

Shi Jiezhong didn't say any more, although this man surnamed Zhou is a popular person around Yuwen Zhi County, but he is not without background, he believes that His Royal Highness will definitely rescue him, and he must speak to His Royal Highness when the time comes, Take down this villain named Zhou.

A yamen servant took the key from Shi Jiezhong and opened the door of the firewood room smoothly.I saw Yang Fengxian's hands and feet were tied behind his back, and his eyes were still covered with a black cloth, but fortunately he was still conscious.

Seeing that Yang Fengxian was safe and sound, Pei Xiaoyao didn't care whether she kept a low profile or not, so she hurried forward to untie the rope binding her hands and feet, stroked the marks that were tied up, and said distressedly: "Feng girl, don't be afraid, I will Here we come." Although he knew that she was safe and well before, but he didn't see her for a moment, Pei Xiaoyao couldn't feel at ease for a moment.

Yang Fengxian wanted to take off the black cloth from his eyes, but the yard and woodshed were brightly lit, Pei Xiaoyao was afraid of hurting Yang Fengxian's eyes, so he grabbed her hand and said, "Don't take it off yet, wait until you get out to the dark place." Pick the place and adapt slowly, carefully hurting the eyes."

The magistrate of Yuwen County saw that he was found and that nothing happened, so he said relaxedly: "Miss Yang and your cousin really have a good relationship, look at how worried he is."

Yang Fengxian was still a little dazed until Pei Xiaoyao reminded him that he was the magistrate of Yuwen County, and she said politely: "Then I have to thank Lord Yuwen for saving my life, but I don't know who wanted me, an innocent The life of the person who died, the little girl claims to be a good citizen, and has never made enemies with anyone."

Yuwen County Magistrate took a deep look at Shi Jiezhong and Zhou Wenshu, and said, "Miss Yang, don't worry, I will give you a fair answer."

Then he ordered: "Put Shi Jiezhong and Zhou Wenshu in the prison of the county government."
