"No matter how evil my heart is, it's useless."
Xu Hongwu interrupted her, "That brat doesn't seem to be someone who will be at a disadvantage. Now that he's in the Supreme Court, I wonder who will be the unluckiest one."
Wen Jiu paused slightly. "I'm worried that he won't get used to being in the justice courts, so if he's impatient, I'll cut down the justice courts' official …"
Xu Hongwu, "..."
The two of them were speechless as they recalled the youth's actions.
Xie Heng didn't hold back when he killed the Duke of Great Jin and Chang Ning too much. Dai Ming was just a mere justice judge, and his temper was just as irritating as ever.
Xu Hongwu thought about it again and again, then said: "Then, I still have to get him out as soon as possible."
Wen Jiu nodded.
Just a green jade ring could cause Duke Yong Xing, who was present in the imperial court, to treat her like this. It seemed like Xie Heng had more secrets than she did.
The old debt that the young man owed at the Dijing, who exactly was he asking from?
Eternal Xing County, Duke Mansion.
Old Prefecture Duke was close to seventy years old, originally he had a daughter who had died many years ago, but now there were less than twenty attendant servants in the mansion.
The county governor's residence was close to the Pear Garden. Every day, he would listen to plays and drink tea.
Wen Jiu stayed in the guest room. Just as she finished dinner, she changed into male clothing and left through the side door of the Duke's Estate.
After walking a few steps, he suddenly felt someone following him. When he turned around to look, there was nothing there.
Wen Jiu did not turn his head to look and instead walked straight to the entrance of Pear Garden, entering the crowd of people who wanted to watch the show.
"I even said why can't I see you in the blink of an eye."
Xu Hongwu was very happy when he saw her, "Let's go in and listen."
It had been snowing all day, and the snow was already very thick. Ordinary people wouldn't go out much, but the front of the Pear Garden was packed with people. The teahouses and restaurants across the street were also filled.
This seemed a little unusual.
Without waiting for Wen Jiu to figure out anything, Xu Hongwu had already walked forward, "Let's go, this《 Han-Li Ji》 will be a feast for the eyes."
Wen Jiu followed them into the private room and sat down. The entire theater was filled with spectators, not only were there not a single empty seat, there were practically no seats.
The scene had already begun, and he was singing, "Even if you don't see the beacons, you'll be stained with blood. Iron and horses will ride on the mountains and rivers …"
This was a new show, about young generals protecting their families and protecting their countries while being killed by treacherous officials. In the end, the enemy armies overturned the entire imperial court, killing every man they saw, robbing every girl they saw.
The performers on stage were singing sorrowfully, while the spectators below wiped their eyes. It was probably because they felt the same way. After the curtain call ended, not many people in the audience had yet to get up to leave.
It was unknown who scolded, "If you kill the people who can protect the family and protect the country, who will defend the country and the country for you?" "Stupid to the extreme!"
The voices of the crowd drifted out, "If we don't kill that young general, how will we end up with our country and families destroyed!"
"It's said that the youth currently being held in the Supreme Court is only eighteen years old! What were those noble princes doing when they were eighteen? All day long, we know that we are being squeezed out of the common people. If this goes on, our Great Yan will have to work with the people in this show … "
Wen Jiu listened to the people below and lightly tapped the table, "Lord Duke, when did this new movie come out?"
It just so happened that Xu Hongwu was secretly raising his sleeve to wipe the corners of his eyes. Hearing Wen Jiu suddenly talking to him, his movements slightly stiffened, yet his expression did not seem to have happened at all.
Ten days ago!
Very good.
She said that Xie Heng was not the type of person to sit still and wait for death.
Ten days ago, when he was still in Changping County, this farce had already begun to spread through the Dijing. It was very likely that the teahouses and restaurants were talking about the story of Changning after it was modified.
No matter if it was his own idea, or if there was someone behind him helping him, the eighteen year old Xie Heng already had this kind of scheming mind, so Wen Jiu could only feel ashamed.
She raised her teacup and took a sip of hot tea, feeling that her internal organs were burning with an unpleasant taste.
Xu Hongwu slowly said, "If the Son of Heaven gets angry, he will die a hundred miles away. So what if people are angry? "
What could they do?
Water could carry a boat, but it could also overturn a boat. The position of the nine or five monarchs were not easy to sit on. There had been endless riots in the past few years, and kings were everywhere.
If Xie Heng did not handle this matter properly, and caused the crowd to become excited, and if someone who was interested decided to rebel, it was hard to say whether or not his Great Yan could continue to be named Zhao.
Wen Jiu only knew that this youth really couldn't afford to offend him.
"Alright, I've finished listening to this play."
Xu Hongwu put down the teacup in his hand and stood up, "Are you still going to the justice courts?"
"Let's go."
Wen Jiu replied without hesitation.
Xu Hongwu looked at her leisurely, "Are you really going?" Old Prefecture Duke especially wanted to say that she couldn't do anything even if she went to the justice courts, nor could she snatch him out.
Wen Jiu thought for a while, "The cold energy at night is heavy, and his clothes are thin..."
"Fine, fine, fine."
Xu Hongwu hurriedly interrupted, "This old man has been widowed for many years, I really couldn't think of such a thing."
After he finished, he called his followers over to lead the way for Wen Jiu, "We need to hurry, and before this matter is settled, we can only see this side."
Wen Jiu bowed to the Old Prefecture Duke and turned to leave.
It was already the middle of the night when they arrived at the justice courts. The guards were clearly looser than they were during the day, and the surroundings were so quiet that it was almost eerie.
Wen Jiu was wearing a black cape and hat that covered half of her face. Old Prefecture Duke's follower helped arrange the guards and she kept quiet all the way.
"Let's go."
The head of the prison guard put away his silver coins easily and walked inside with Wen Jiu. Without waiting to see Wen Jiu, he said, "We should never see the people who are originally imprisoned here. However, I have to lift my head to take care of the matters that the Old Prefecture Duke has given us."
Wen Jiu thanked him and walked through the dark corridor. The candlelight in the cell was weak and the stench of blood permeated the entire place. From the corner of his eyes, he could see the dried up blood stains on the torture instruments.
Her eyebrows twitched and she unconsciously quickened her pace.
After making three or four turns, Wen Jiu finally stopped in front of the cell on the far right. The youth was resting against the corner with his white clothes stained with blood, and his original color could no longer be seen.
She couldn't tell what she was feeling at the moment, but her eyes were uncontrollably sore. Her five fingers under her sleeve were tightly clenched. She wanted to call out to him, but she was suddenly speechless.
The sound of metal on metal broke the silence as the jailer tried to unlock the door.
The youth suddenly opened his eyes. His entire body was filled with hostility. "You still want to die?"
The head of the prison turned pale and abruptly retreated two steps back, "What do you have to say? Hurry up and say it!"
With that, he left in a hurry.
Wen Jiu took off his black cape and walked into the cell.
When Xie Heng saw who it was, the expression in his eyes slightly changed …
Please report us if you find any errors so we can fix it asap!
"No matter how evil my heart is, it's useless."
Xu Hongwu interrupted her, "That brat doesn't seem to be someone who will be at a disadvantage. Now that he's in the Supreme Court, I wonder who will be the unluckiest one."
