Chapter 211 Storytelling
The passerby only saw three half-grown children, so he curiously asked: "Where are the adults in their family?"
"The elders in their family believe in Buddhism and Taoism. In the past few days, the Buddhist elders went to stay in a temple on the mountain.
The elders who believe in Taoism go to the Taoist temple for a short stay. I heard that the Taoist temple also provides free medical treatment and medicine to the poor families in the surrounding area.
But the rain kept coming, so the plan probably didn’t work out. ”
After hearing this, the passerby felt that Shi Zelan would not touch other people's vitals, and asked again: "Does this young lady like to run outside?"
The neighbors quickly shook their heads: "She doesn't go out very often, and when she does, she only goes to teahouses and Taoist temples."
When the six gates arrived, everyone fell silent at the same time.
"Awesome." The officers lined up in two teams in the lobby of the Six Gates. The red-robed temple secretary walked from the back to the main hall and sat down.
The official stepped forward to report the situation, and the temple secretary looked at him and said, "Pass it on."
"Send. Both parties enter the hall."
The black-clad men were brought into the hall. When the temple secretary saw that the hall was almost full of black-clad men, his brows furrowed and he asked, "All of them?"
After the official nodded, the temple secretary picked up the gavel and slammed it heavily: "You will be interrogated in court and confess the truth.
You gathered so many people to kidnap the young lady from the Shi family. Do you admit it? Still don’t recognize it? ”
The men in black were stunned for a moment. They had originally wanted to find an opportunity to tell the temple secretary and the officials the identity of their master.
Unexpectedly, the temple secretary and other officials did not give them any chance and started the trial directly.
Halfway through the journey, an official passed a note to the Temple Secretary. In full view of everyone, the Temple Secretary did not even open the note to read it.
After the first interrogation, Shi Xiaoliu's siblings and Xia Yu followed their neighbors outside.
After they went out of the six doors, the neighbor lady whispered to the three of them, "Don't be afraid, they are in the wrong this time."
Shi Xiaoliu and his sister and Xia Yu bowed to their neighbors and passers-by with gratitude: "With you in the capital, we can live in peace."
After they entered the courtyard, Aunt Liu leaned over the courtyard wall and whispered, "You guys better be careful tonight.
Do you want to go to a temple or Taoist temple to avoid the limelight? ”
Shi Xiaoliu smiled and said, "Aunt, we have been traveling outside for many days, so we still have some self-protection skills."
After the village head came over to inquire about the situation, he sighed and said, "The government has investigated everything clearly. The young lady of the Shi family has not left the courtyard during those days.
They are taking their anger out on others. ”
The head of the village said to Shi Xiaoliu and his sister, as well as Xia Yu, "You can live here peacefully. I'll go to the government and tell them to come and walk around our street more often at night."
Brother Shi Xiaoliu and Xia Yu quickly saluted the head of the village and said, "When our elders come back, we will definitely come to thank you."
After listening to what the three of them said, the village head thought for a moment and whispered, "Don't alarm your elders, it's easy for accidents to happen on the roads outside the city.
You are outsiders, and they are locals. You are more numerous and powerful, so please stay away from them first. ”
Shi Xiaoliu and the other two exchanged glances. The village head was speaking to them from the heart.
When the village head left, he felt relieved.
At night, when the government troops came to patrol, they found people hiding in the dark, so they simply rested at the entrance of the street.
The sky was getting slightly brighter. The officials walked a few more steps to the corner and saw countless footprints on the ground. They all frowned.
The Temple Secretary gave instructions yesterday, saying that the chances of Shi Zelan committing a crime were very small.
And several neighbors testified for her that she was indeed present at the Cuju match only on the first day and returned with her neighbors.
It was getting light outside. Shi Xiaoliu brought in the lantern outside the courtyard gate. When he saw the uncle next door neighbor, he greeted him with a smile.
The uncle nodded at Shi Xiaoliu and said, "Your sister is a person who is consistent in her inner and outer qualities. People on this street all believe that she would not do anything evil."
Shi Xiaoliu sighed and said, "She only found out where a man's vitals are yesterday.
Before this, when we mentioned to her that she should resist when encountering bad things, she just stepped on other people's feet and poked other people's necks. ”
The rain stopped, but Shi Xiaoliu and his sister and Xia Yu still did not leave the city.
In the evening, Master Decheng and Master Shanzheng came back, observed the expressions of the three of them, and asked, "When is the second court session?"
"tomorrow.
The temple secretary said that Lan Jie'er didn't have to go. ”
"I'll go, everyone is going to come and catch me, I have to see who is behind this."
Master Decheng and Master Shanzheng agreed to Shi Zelan's request: "Let's go together."
The next day, when they went out of the yard, they saw their neighbors standing outside the yard.
"Xiao Lanzi, let's go together."
Shi Zelan was immediately moved and bowed to them: "Thank you for believing in me."
"You've lived here with us for so long, and you're not one to show off."
Six doors opened and closed again.
On this day, the temple secretary sat in the main seat with a serious expression, and two officials sat on his left and right.
At noon, the six doors opened and people rushed out.
Shi Xiaoliu and Shi Zelan whispered, "We need to wait for more news."
Xia Yu frowned and said, "Sister Lan, even if you feel aggrieved, you don't have to endure it all the time."
Shi Zelan immediately understood what Xia Yu meant. Although the capital was looked after by the emperor, he was in the deep palace.
If the officials outside want to protect each other, they can only speak out on their own.
"Xiao Liu, let's go back and write a storybook. I think it's not enough to just rely on the officials to be fair in this matter."
They returned to the yard, and as they entered the yard, Shi Zelan said to Aunt Liu: "Aunt, I feel very uncomfortable.
This kind of sudden disaster makes me feel very upset. I will write it down later and ask my aunt to listen and see if what I said makes sense. ”
Aunt Liu listened to Shi Zelan's words and said sympathetically, "Xiao Lan, when you finish writing, I will come to listen to your grievances."
Only after Master Decheng and Master Shanzheng entered the yard did they hear about the plan of Shi Xiaoliu and his sister and Xia Yu.
Master Decheng and Master Shanzheng looked at Xia Yu and said, "Yu'er, you need to pay more attention to this matter."
Xia Yu nodded: "Uncle Master, I understand.
I will write in a way that everyone can understand what story we are telling, but it won't involve us too directly. ”
Xia Yu wrote the story directly under the eaves, and showed it to Shi Xiaoliu and Shi Zelan after he finished writing.
Shi Xiaoliu was very angry after seeing this and said, "Junior Brother Yu, you're right, they did scare Sister Lan when they came in."
After reading the story, Shi Zelan said shyly, "Brother Yu, I can't write it as beautifully as you do."
Aunt Liu called several neighbors over to listen to the story, but Xia Yu's story was a bit dry.
After listening to it, Aunt Liu shook her head and said, "Xia Ge'er, you wrote a good story, but you can't tell it.
We understand, and we will tell everyone your story. ”
