Chapter 219 Meeting in Prison
Yuanchen is approaching, and this day is the last day for Dali Temple to be on duty. Due to the lack of cases in the temple and the snow disaster, except for those who take turns on duty during the festival, all the officials in the temple have been authorized to leave the temple early and go home. Go home, go home, go home.

Xie Zhan put the wolf hair on the Wufeng Moyu pen bed, watched the handwriting on the last book dry, closed it, and then raised his hand to rub his tired eyebrows.

It's the next hour, and Zhou Xi, the interim Shaoqing of Dali Temple who is new at the next table, also stands up and sorts out the papers in front of him.

Although his parents are in Jingzhou, since he has just been transferred to Dali Temple and worked in Beijing for only ten days, even though Shaoqing has the title of "temporary generation", it is a great exception to promote him. I set off and returned to my hometown for the New Year, so I simply stayed at my uncle's house in Jiankang City.

At this time, Li Sicheng hurried in from the outside with a paper petition.

Seeing that he came in such a hurry, Zhou Xi hurriedly asked: "Li Sicheng, is there a case?"

Li Sicheng's forward steps paused, and his eyes fell on Zhou Xi's face. There was a burning light in his eyes, which was a kind of happy look of a hunter seeing his prey.

Li Sicheng said in his heart: That's right, since this Zhou Shaoqing joined the job, perhaps it was because of the road closure due to the snowstorm, and it was difficult to send cases from other places. Their Dali Temple has not really received a new case, and this is the first in ten days in his hands. an example.

But this time, there is a Fujia in the two creations.

The previous minister of the temple, Yang Tao, was a chatterbox, and he liked to tell secrets that others didn't know. He told him and Cheng Sicheng that Xie Siqing was married to a girl from the Fu family...

Before Li Sicheng finished thinking, Zhou Xi stepped forward, reached out to take the pleading paper in his hand, and said, "Leave it to me, Xie Siqing should go home and rest earlier."

With nothing in his hand, Li Sicheng was slightly startled, and turned to Xie Zhan. He closed his eyes and rubbed his forehead, his face was serious, he was thinking about how to speak, and then he heard Zhou Xi said happily: "Fujia? But the one from the former Baiyue Army help the family?"

Xie Zhan paused and listened intently.

I just heard Li Sicheng say: "Know Zhou Shaoqing? Oh, I forgot, you are fellow villagers, so you should know each other."

Zhou Xi hummed, "I know, my father and General Fu have a long history of friendship. But the defendant written on this pleadings is 'Fu Shi', without a name, who is he suing?"

Li Sicheng glanced at Xie Zhan and said, "It's the girl who helped the family."

"It's her?" Zhou Xi exclaimed in shock, realizing that he had lost his composure, so suppressing his excitement, he asked Li Sicheng, "Where's the person?"

From the first day Xie Zhan entered the Dali Temple, Li Sicheng had been working here, so he understood Sisi Xie's temperament to some extent, and when he thought about the major events that happened in the court, it was said that the patriarch Xie's quasi-patriarch and Fu He dared not take this case lightly.

Therefore, Li Sicheng did not speak back to Zhou Xi, but turned to Xie Zhan, and said respectfully: "Xie Siqing, more than a dozen victims of the disaster have sued Fujia for poisoning the porridge, and now all of them have been imprisoned. You Look, who will interrogate you and Zhou Shaoqing?"

The Xie Siqing behind the table looked indifferent, and after Li Sicheng spit out the words "helping the family girl", he opened his eyelids and looked straight at the two of them.

After hearing Zhou Xi's exclaimed "Is it her?", the sour emotion in his heart was like a rising tide, almost drowning him.

Without him, it was because he suddenly understood why Zhou Xi was shocked.

He could not forget it all at once, and he suddenly remembered the wedding banquet in the Liu Mansion in May, when Princess Jiayang once said: "In Jingzhou, the men who proposed marriage almost broke down the door of Fu's family, and several of them swore to the heavens that they would not be wronged." She doesn't marry... she knew we were moving, and I heard that the young master of the governor's family cried for three days..."

Zhou Xi, Zhou Zhoulang, the youngest son of the governor of Jingzhou, is 21 years old and has not yet married.

Isn't it the "little son of the governor's family" who cried for Fuxuan for three days!

This week, Zhou Xi is the cousin recommended by Zhou Yuechao, a friend who is proficient in the law. He said that he has excellent abilities, and he made his mark in the investigation of cases in Jingzhou County. That's why he was left in office.

Thinking of this, Xie Zhan secretly licked his back molars, held the folding fan and got up, and said to Zhou Xi with a blank expression: "Zhou Shaoqing go to the hall to prepare first, I will go to the prison to pick him up."

Zhou Xi was overjoyed and said loudly, "Yes."

Following the jailer's voice, "Xie Siqing, this way please!", Fu Xuan's dazed expression moved slightly, and she walked a few steps towards the prison door.

She is familiar with this Dali Temple Prison, thinking that when her father was imprisoned here, she would visit her every month.In the torture room at the entrance, she vomited as soon as she entered from the very beginning, and she was so worn out that she could turn a blind eye.

I just didn't expect that I would be imprisoned here one day.

Fu Xuan stood on tiptoe, took a step away from the cell door, and looked out. Xie Zhan, dressed in a dark purple official robe, with eyes half down, was striding towards her, led by the jailer.

When he was promoted to a higher rank, the color of his official robe changed, but the original crimson color was still more pleasing to the eye.Once he wears such a dull color, the depth of his whole body will be enhanced, making it even more unpredictable.Fu Xuan thought so.

While she was still looking at Xie Zhan in a daze, the two had already stepped forward, and the jailer opened the cell door neatly.

Xie Zhan said to the jailer: "Give me the key, and take the rest of the staff to the lobby, there is no need to come back."

The prison guard should be respectful, and handed out the key in his hand.

As the sounds of "go", "go" and "go quickly" went away, the prison fell silent.

Xie Zhan, who was sitting at the table with his eyes drooping and silent, finally laughed, raised his eyes to look at the person, and opened Jingui's mouth: "Please go to the Crane Garden and you won't go, what's the matter? Only in this situation can we see you." To the honorable maid?"

The day before Zifu Yiyan set off, the two met at Fu's house, they thought he was going to hire a girl and deliberately avoided her.It's been more than ten days, and she really hasn't stepped into the Crane Garden.The excuse for the first few days was that I was busy giving out porridge, and the excuse for the next few days was that it was inconvenient for my friends to stay overnight.But yesterday Zhang Yao had already gone to Mingyue Villa, he waited for her all night, but did not see her appear.

Hearing the sarcasm in the cold voice, Fu Xuan, who was not in the mood at all, didn't want to talk to him.

Originally it was her own idea to ask her father to hire her, and afterward she asked Shi Qing to invite her every day. Could it be that she had no temper?

Seeing Fu Xuan beside him staring at him with a cold face and not speaking, Xie Zhan's forehead twitched.

Really, he had to admit that when faced with this most difficult little girl to serve, he wanted to lose his temper but didn't dare to lose his temper.

After a long silence, Xie Zhan finally took her hand in front of him, and said softly, "Is it cold?"

Fu Xuan is not a person who doesn't know the depths, seeing Xie Zhan's caring expression, and she is already in his territory, she will have to rely on him later, if he can hand over a ladder, she is naturally willing to go down.

She said aggrievedly: "It's cold, dark, and smelly."
