Chapter 565 Entering the prison(1/2)
Ouyang Linlin nodded.
"Okay, as long as you have a clear idea in your heart." OK, here are the novel clips provided for you:
Time flies, and in a blink of an eye, a few more days have passed.
On that day, Sun Shangxiang came to find Xi Yu and said that she missed her mother more and hoped that Xi Yu could let her go back to see her mother.
After hearing this, Xi Yu felt a little reluctant, but he also knew that Sun Shangxiang was a filial child and she had always had a deep relationship with her mother.
Xi Yu said: "Since that's the case, it's better to bring Wu Guotai. I had this idea before, but I forgot later. You can wait at home with peace of mind, and I want to go to Jiangnan in person."
Sun Shangxiang is very grateful.
So Xi Yu rode a horse and set off.
Sun Shangxiang nodded and said, "Thank you, husband. You are such a good person. I will wait for your good news at home."
After saying that, Sun Shangxiang said goodbye to Xi Yu and returned to her room. She sat on the bed, feeling a little excited and looking forward to it. She hoped to see her mother as soon as possible and reunite with her.
On the other side, Xi Yu was also ready to set off. He rode a tall black horse, wearing a white robe, handsome and handsome. He headed towards Jiangnan Street.
Along the way, the scenery was picturesque, and Xi Yu was in a good mood. He admired the beautiful scenery on the roadside and felt the charm of nature. He knew that this time he went to Jiangnan Street was not only to pick up Wu Guotai, but also to be able to go further with Sun Shangxiang.
On that day, Xi Yu passed by a village and saw a girl running in panic. Many servants were chasing after her with wooden sticks.
He was shocked and quickly asked the girl to get on his horse.
"What the hell is going on? Come on my code quickly."
The girl didn't hesitate and immediately got on the horse of Yu.
At this time, several servants ran over and told Xi Yu not to meddle in other people's business.
Xi Yu asked, "What are you doing? Why are you chasing this girl?"
One of the servants said, "This is the order of our master. This girl is our slave. She ran away and we want to capture her back."
Xi Yu said: "Since she is your slave, you should treat her well, instead of chasing her like this. Doing this will not respect human rights."
Another servant said, "You outsider, don't meddle in other people's business. This is our family chore and has nothing to do with you. If you don't leave, we will be welcome."
Xi Yu said: "Don't threaten me. I am a just person and I will not stand by. You'd better let this girl go, otherwise you will bear the consequences."
After saying that, Xi Yu pulled out the sword around his waist and scared the servants.
When the servants saw Xi Yu's tough attitude, they did not dare to do it easily. They hesitated for a moment and turned around and left.
Xi Yu was relieved when he saw them leaving. He looked back at the girl and found that she was still sobbing. He said, "Girl, don't be afraid. Those servants have left, you are safe now."
The girl raised her head, looked at Xi Yu, and said gratefully: "Thank you, young master. You are really my savior."
Xi Yu said, "You're welcome. What's going on with you? Why do you want to run away?"
The girl said, "I was sold here by human traffickers. I was originally a good girl, but because of my family's poverty, I was abducted by human traffickers. I was sold here and became a slave. I have to do a lot of hard work every day and be bullied by my master. What's more important is that my master is about to die and ask me to be buried with me."
When Xi Yu heard this, he was particularly angry. He had just abolished the system of burial and the news should have spread across the country, and there were still people who dared to do so.
"It's simply outrageous."
The girl's name is Xiaocui. She looked at Xi Yu gratefully and said, "Thank you, young master, for saving me. I don't know how to repay you."
Xi Yu smiled and said, "You're welcome, Xiao Cui. This is what I should do. You are safe now, don't worry anymore."
However, as soon as he finished speaking, he suddenly heard a sound of bowstrings and an arrow shot towards Xiao Cui on the horse's back.
Xiao Cui screamed in horror and almost fell off the horse's back. Xi Yu quickly held her and said, "Don't be afraid, Xiao Cui. With me here, you won't be in trouble."
Meanwhile, a group of black-clad killers rushed out of the darkness and attacked them.
The secret guards appeared quickly and fought against the killers.
Xiao Cui was so scared that her face was pale. She grabbed Xi Yu's clothes tightly and said, "Young Master, what should I do? They must be someone sent by the master."
Xi Yu said, "Don't be afraid, Xiao Cui. Just hide behind me and don't get hurt."
The secret guard blocked a killer's attack with his sword and kicked him to the ground with one kick.
Another killer took the opportunity to slash Xi Yu at him, and Xi Yu flew sideways and dodged the knife.
The secret guard stabbed the killer in the chest with a backhand sword.
The killers became even more crazy when they saw their companions being killed by secret guards. They rushed towards Xi Yu regardless of everything.
However, the secret guards defeated them all.
After that, the secret guard disappeared, and Xiao Cui quickly asked what was going on.
"This is my secret guard, who is dedicated to protecting me from safety. Are you okay?"
Xiao Cui started crying, she said she was frightened, and suddenly, she got off the horse.
Xiao Cui looked at Xi Yu gratefully and said, "Thank you, young master, for saving me. I have no choice but to repay you. I hope to follow the young master, be a maid, and serve your daily life from now on."
Xi Yu shook his head and said, "Xiao Cui, you don't have to do this. I didn't save you to repay me. You are a free person and should not be my maid. You should go home and reunite with your family."
Xiao Cui heard this and tears flowed down her face.
She said, "Young Master, you don't know, I have no home anymore. I heard the news of my family's death a few days ago. I have no relatives anymore. I don't know where to go or what to do. I think only by following the young master can you have a glimmer of life."
When Xi Yu saw Xiao Cui crying, he felt a little embarrassed.
He said, "Xiao Cui, don't cry. Since you have no relatives anymore, follow me. I will give you a place to live and let you live a stable life. But don't treat yourself as a maid. You are my friend, and we must get along with each other equally."
Xiao Cui felt warm after hearing this. She said, "Thank you, young master. Young master is such a great person. I will definitely serve you well."
Xi Yu said, "Okay, Xiao Cui, don't talk. Let's find a place to rest first and continue on the road tomorrow."
After saying that, Xi Yu took Xiao Cui to an inn.
Xi Yu frowned and asked, "Xiao Cui, who is your family? Why are you so bold and dare to disobey the Prime Minister's order? The Prime Minister just ordered the abolition of the system of burial for his death."
Xiao Cui sighed and said, "Young Master, this master is a local bully. He has power and power and colludes with the government. He has many slaves in his family, and he often abuses us. He feels that he is an amazing person and does not take anyone seriously. He says whatever he says, no one dares to oppose him."
Then, she sighed again.
"So what if it's the Prime Minister's order? After all, the mountains are high and the emperor is far away."
Xi Yu thought to himself, you don’t know that I am the prime minister in front of you.
After hearing this, Xi Yu felt anger in his heart. He said, "It's so outrageous! This bully is so hateful! How could he treat you like this? You are also human beings, not his animals!"
Xiao Cui said, "Young Master, don't be angry. We slaves are all people with miserable lives, and no one cares about us. We can only endure his torture, and there is no other way."
Xi Yu said, "No, Xiao Cui, don't say that. You are not slaves, you are free people. You have the right to choose your own life. I will not let you be bullied by him again. Don't worry."
Xi Yu decided to take Xiao Cui to find the local county magistrate to completely solve the problem.
Xiao Cui was startled and said, "Young Master, we are free now, so there is no need to bother the county magistrate again, right?"
Xi Yu said: "Xiao Cui, you don't understand. This county magistrate actually colluded with a bully and must be punished."
Xiao Cui said, "But how can we meet the county magistrate? We are just ordinary people. We cannot see him, and it is even more impossible to let him be punished."
Xi Yu smiled and said, "You don't have to worry about this. I have a way. I am the person around the Prime Minister."
Xiao Cui was very surprised when she heard this. She said, "Young Master, you are so amazing. You are actually someone around the Prime Minister. I am so honored."
After saying that, Xi Yu took Xiao Cui to the local county government.
Huangfu is one of the most powerful families in the town.
It is also the family that Xiao Cui served before.
Mr. Huang is a wealthy businessman. He runs various businesses and has countless wealth and connections.
But now he is terminally ill.
Mr. Huang's housekeeper was very angry when he saw the servant running back in a mess.
He asked, "What's wrong with you? Why didn't you catch Xiao Cui?"
A servant said, "Butler, we met a young man who rescued Xiao Cui. Moreover, the people around him were very powerful, and the killer we sent out was also killed by them."
The housekeeper was shocked when he heard this. He said, "What? There is such a thing? What is the origin of this young master? Why did he save Xiao Cui?"
The Ding said, "Butler, we don't know either. We only know that he is a young man, and he has masters around him, so we are not their opponents."
The housekeeper said, "It's so outrageous! This Xiao Cui is such a broom star, and she actually caused us such a big trouble. You wastes are really useless and can't even catch a woman. Forget it, forget it, it's over, it's useless to say more. You guys go down first, I'm going to report this to the master."
Xi Yu took Xiao Cui to the county government office.
He said to the two yamen runners at the door: "Brother of the servant, I am here to find the county magistrate. I have something to do to see him."
One of the yamen runners watched Xi Yu, then looked at Xiao Cui behind him, and then said coldly: "Who are you? Who do you think you are? Even a country bumpkin like you dare to come to the county magistrate?"
Another yamen runner also echoed: "That's right, that's right. Who do you think you are? Do you know who the county magistrate is? He is our parents' official here, and he is not anyone who can see him. If you want to see him, you have to have a visit to him. Do you have a visit to him? Take it out and take a look."
After hearing this, Xi Yu felt a little unhappy.
He said, "I want to ask, why is the Prime Minister's order not followed here?"
"Damn it, who do you think you are? You dare to talk to us in this tone."
Xiao Cui felt a little dissatisfied when she saw Xi Yu being ridiculed by two yamen runners.
