one step closer to the end

"Boss! This old bitch is not having enough fun, drag this little bitch out to have fun, anyway, it will be cut in a few days..."

A jailer opened the cell door with a lewd smile, and walked in with his trousers in his hands. Tan Qingning was frightened again, and she crawled into the corner crying with a pale face, but was immediately wrapped around her hands with a dog's rope stick And neck, fork her to the ground forcefully.

"no, do not want……"

Tan Qingning was lying on the ground completely unable to exert any strength. The jailers were experts in dealing with warriors. The rope stick that pressed her neck had a special structure. It would not crush her to death but make her powerless to resist. She could only watch the jailer helplessly, Take off your clothes little by little.

"stop!"

A loud shout suddenly sounded from outside the door, and the four jailers immediately let go of their hands in fright, only to hear someone shout: "What are you doing, you dare to move my prisoner!"

"Father! Help me, dad..."

Tan Qingning yelled desperately again, as if grabbing a life-saving straw, and the jailers hurriedly untied the rope, tied up their pants and ran out, dragging away the old bustard opposite.

"Ah~ you stinky mouth, are you swearing again..."

Zhao Guanren saw that she was splashed with feces and urine, so he quickly picked up a bucket of water from the outside, scooped out a scoop of clean water with a distressed face, walked up to her and slowly poured it on her head. Like a kind old father.

"Ah~"

Tan Qingning couldn't hold back any longer, she covered her face and cried bitterly like a collapse, in fact, any fool could see that she was a thousand households at a young age, and she must have got through the back door through her connections, so she didn't have much real ability.

"Don't cry! You said what you did, just let me worry about you..."

Zhao Guanren knelt down and pulled her collar away. Tan Qingning choked and didn't respond. When a ladle of water poured into her chest, she covered her chest without thinking, and said in a sobbing voice, "Let me go, I didn't think To kill you, I just want to embarrass you!"

"I can let you go out, but it's not a dead end for you to go out, you want to become a bandit..."

Zhao Guanren took out a cloth towel to help her wipe her face, and said: "I understand, you are not a bad person, you just let a young lady get angry, not only hurt your colleagues, but if the emperor really blames it, maybe your relatives and master will be blamed." You have to be implicated!"

"I was wrong!"

Tan Qingning cried and said, "I'm too self-willed, but I don't regret my own death, but if my master and family members are involved, I won't have the face to see my ancestors!"

"Ah~"

Zhao Guanren wiped her tears for her, and said helplessly, "I don't want to see a girl cry, so how about it! I'll go and intercede with all the adults, and see if I can suppress this matter!"

"But seven black-clothed guards are dead, how can you suppress it..."

Tan Qingning raised her head pitifully, and Zhao Guanren said in a low voice: "You can just let the thieves kill you, and I'll find a few more corpses to replace you. Doomed, but you have two choices!"

"Which two?"

Tan Qingning quickly straightened her body, and he said: "One is to become a bandit and wander the world from now on, and the other is to fight against me, so you can sit back and relax, and if it fails, you and I will be smashed to pieces!"

"I don't want to become a bandit, I choose the second one..."

Tan Qingning nodded vigorously, Zhao Guanren whispered something in his ear, then patted her on the shoulder and walked out, leaving Tan Qingning alone in a daze.

"Your waist card, take it..."

Zhao Guanren walked back with a sarong in his arms, handed her the waistband and said, "I may have done something to kill myself. If someone sells me, I will have to be buried with you!"

"you……"

Tan Qingning asked with a complex expression: "Why do you want to help me? You are about to succeed in your official career. Wouldn't it be worth the candle to take such a risk for me?"

"Only an official considers gains and losses. I am not an official. If I like you, I will help you..."

Zhao Guanren smiled wryly and said: "After Li Baihu injured me, I took a deep breath in my heart. I actually regretted it afterwards. I actually bullied you, a beautiful girl. It's really not a thing. Letting you go will be compensation for you. If I also admit that I died because of you!"

"I was also at fault. If I hadn't deliberately troubled you, I wouldn't have made it like this..."

Tan Qingning bowed sincerely, but after Zhao Guanren opened her shackles, she shyly said, "Qing Ning! I may move my head tomorrow, can you fulfill my little wish before I die?"

"Say it! As long as I can do it, I will never refuse..."

Tan Qingning unswervingly puffed up her chest, Zhao Guanren touched his nose and bowed his head, and said, "I'm a beginner, I've never seen a woman's... body, especially a girl as beautiful as you, I like you so much, you can make me Do you want to take a look at your body?"

"What? You..."

Tan Qingning covered her chest in embarrassment, and Zhao Guanren hurriedly waved her hands and said, "Forget it! If you don't want it, forget it. I know this request is too much. Hurry up and change your clothes and leave, pretend I didn't say anything!"

"Wait a moment!"

Tan Qingning's pretty face turned red "shua", and she said shyly: "You are willing to live and die with me, and I should repay you in any way, but it's not convenient here, just leave it as a thought, next time I'll let you see it again, but only for one look, okay?"

"Qing Ning! You are so kind..."

Zhao Guanren kissed her abruptly on the face, and Tan Qingning beat him a few times coquettishly. After Zhao Guanren explained a few more words, she pushed Zhao Guanren out, changed into her dress and left the dungeon in a hurry. No one did.

"Tan Qingning! I hope you don't waste my words..."

Zhao Guanren said something quietly, picked up Tan Qingning's dirty clothes and walked out, turned around and came to the deepest part of the dungeon, where seven guards in black were crowded into a cell, and the wounds had already been bandaged by the doctor.

"Sigh~ I thought you black-clothed guards were very loyal, who knew..."

Zhao Guanren sighed and squatted outside, and pulled out a black silk bellyband from his clothes. The black-clothed guards immediately exclaimed angrily: "Did Tan Qingning run away by herself? shall we?"

"I'm young too, I can't stand being tempted by her..."

Zhao Guanren said in a mournful voice: "I really don't want to embarrass you, it's all Tan Qingning's fault, and I've got you both involved, she knew the emperor would behead you, so she just stripped naked to tempt me, I couldn't hold back for a while and followed She, she doesn't care about your life!"

"My lord! Please, let us go too..."

The black-clothed guards all crawled over and begged, and Li Baihu, who looked like a tough guy, kowtowed. Once this person was about to die, he would have a very strong desire to survive, especially the officials like them.

"Give me a reason to let you go, I am guilty of beheading..."

Zhao Guanren looked at them with piercing eyes, and at the same time took out a bunch of keys to the prison door, the eyes of the seven guards in black turned red.

Chapter 0436

The six guards and two benches were all facing the gate to brag. The old guard saw Zhao Guanren coming out of the dungeon, and silently walked into the porter's room and lowered the bamboo curtain as if he hadn't seen him.

"Come out! There are clothes in the grass outside the courtyard wall..."

Zhao Guanren waved to the back, and seven black-clothed guards walked out supporting each other, he whispered: "Don't forget the address of the house, you guys are recognized by the entire county, you can rest assured inside to recuperate, I'll send you out after the limelight has passed!"

"Take care, my lord, we will never forget your great kindness..."

The black-clothed guards bowed to him solemnly, looked at the jailers who didn't turn their eyes back, quickly put their seriously injured companions on their backs, and quickly turned over from the back wall of the compound.

"grown ups!"

The old Wu Zuo came out of the gatehouse and said in a low voice: "The black guards just happened to die seven people, and the corpses will be transported over to replace them immediately. I will report that one is seriously injured and died. The corpses in the mortuary have also been arranged properly. Ordinary people will definitely see them." There is no clue!"

"To be on the safe side, you should prepare the oil and fire. If someone checks, you can set fire in the mortuary, and all the names in the register will be changed..."

Zhao Guanren gave him three hundred taels of silver bills, which was enough for him to enjoy the rest of his life. The old foreman also agreed very readily, and ran out briskly.

"Fight! Let's save my life first..."

Zhao Guanren ran into the concierge to open the cabinet, packed up the badges and belongings of the fourteen black-clothed guards, and took them away. He didn't believe that these jailers, who were blind to money, ran out and hid themselves in the newly bought house.

……

"Ah! Ah! Ah..."

A series of screams kept coming from the yamen hall. Zhao Guanren walked into the side hall with his hands behind his back, only to see a petite woman with her trousers stripped off and pushed on a bench. They were slapping her ass viciously with water and fire sticks.

"..."

The woman suddenly rolled her eyes and there was no sound, her buttocks had been beaten to a bloody mess. The servants skillfully put on her pants, splashed cold water on her to wake her up, and dragged her directly into the lobby.

"Tsk tsk~"

Zhao Guanren shook his head and followed in. There was a middle-aged fat man crouching in the hall, his fat buttocks were also opened up, but judging by his clothes, he should be the boss of Zuixianlou, and the woman was his concubine Narcissus. Sure enough, it looks quite juicy.

"Crack~"

Wang Zhifu slapped the gavel viciously, and shouted: "Diaofu! You haven't really recruited it!"

"My lord! The daughter of the people knows her mistake..."

Narcissus lay down on the ground and wept, "Minnv did serve Master Song last night, and she was in this back hall, but it was only Ziye when Minnv left. The master can testify to me that Mr. Song did have three moles on his buttocks. My daughter... saw it with her own eyes!"

"So what if there are moles..."

Song Chizhu raised his arms and said disdainfully: "There are too many people who know that I have moles, and the guy who rubs his back in the bathhouse knows too. If he came into my house and stole a pair of panties, he wanted to plant them, and besides, he found them in the Zuixian Tower. Poison powder, what have you got to do with me, Song?"

"Master Zhifu! The poisonous fan is not Mr. Song's, nor is it the villain's..."

The owner of Zuixianlou mourned: "The villain sold a cook at a low price yesterday. The cook came to gossip with the cook today. Someone saw her sneaking into the guest room and was arrested because the tenant committed a crime. The villain didn't care. Then The poisonous powder was found from the guest room!"

"Who is the tenant? Who did the cook sell to..."

Wang Zhifu glanced at Zhao Guanren, and the boss replied: "The tenants are some businessmen from the Ji Kingdom. On the day they moved in, the villain reported to the county government for registration. The cook was sold to the upstart of Lantai, the third young master of the Zhang family, Zhang Tiansheng!"

"Come here!"

Wang Zhifu shouted: "Go to Zhang's house quickly and bring the cook, carefully search the inside and outside of Zhang's house for poisonous powder, and bring the related people together, Zhang Tiansheng! How do you explain?"

"Your Excellency knows the details, do you need me to explain..."

Zhao Guanren stepped forward and said with a smile: "I just bought the cook yesterday. I don't know what it's called. It doesn't matter whether it's poisoning or hiding it. It has nothing to do with me. Besides, it hasn't been investigated yet!"

"Okay! Wait for the prisoner to bring it, and the government will see how you argue..."

Wang Zhifu stared at him confidently. It was already evening, and kerosene lamps were lit inside and outside the yamen, but there were not many people eating melons outside the door. Some people even squatted at the door with their rice bowls, chatting Tongue analysis of the case.

"My lord! Drink tea..."

The master served the magistrate a cup of tea, and the magistrate Wang waited patiently. Song Chizhu took the opportunity to ask in a low voice, "Mr. Zhang! Why did you come around to you again?"

"Old bastard took advantage of the Bian family. If you are taken down, you will be able to deal with the superiors, and Hu Xiancheng can fill your vacancy..."

Zhao Guanren covered his mouth and said: "But they dare not hurt your uncle. As long as they say that you were deceived by me, the case will not expand any further. The old bastard will definitely induce you to identify me. If you say that you will be punished lightly, you will not give up anything." If you admit it, you will die!"

"No collusion! Separate Song and Zhang..."

Wang Zhifu suddenly scolded, Zhao Guanren hurriedly jumped to the side of the pillar and stood up, and soon there was a "boom" outside the door, and the guards escorted everyone in Zhang's house, even Mrs. Zhang and Cheap Sao Sao I brought them all.

"Ok?"

Zhao Guanren's eyes narrowed suddenly, there was no Yuniang among them, and Bian Xianglan came over in person, standing outside the door with arms folded and sneering, like a lady looking at how you died.

"grown ups!"

The head of the guard jumped in hastily, put down a big box and shouted: "My lord! A box of poisonous powder was found in Zhang's inner house. This kid really is a thief shouting "stop thief!"

"Bold and unruly! You still don't kneel down to the government..."

Wang Zhifu immediately stood up angrily, and Zhao Guanren walked into the hall and said loudly: "My lord! Should I kneel down or not? You servants come and go so fast, have they eaten or drank by themselves? Why? Are you saying that there is poisonous powder in this box?"

"I, we tried it with your chickens and ducks, and it was poison powder..."

The team leader raised his head cleverly, and Zhao Guanren laughed out loud, beckoning and shouting: "Fatty! Come in and tell the adults loudly, do we have chickens, ducks, geese, dogs and cats?"

"no!"

The fat girl stepped in angrily, and said: "Master, I just moved into the mansion yesterday. I didn't buy any livestock. There are only one horse and one donkey in the mansion. You have also specially instructed that roosters are too noisy to keep chickens!"

"You fucking lied in public..."

Zhao Guanren kicked the team leader over, pointed at him and yelled angrily: "You didn't taste the damn thing, so you said that this box is poisonous powder. I didn't close my eyes all night to cure the poison. I'll see if there is any corpse poison." If you don't come out, you dare to slander me with your mouth, what is your intention?"

"It seems that someone is deliberately framing you, son..."

Qian Tongzhi finally came out with his hands behind his back, and said loudly: "Mr. Zhang's great achievements are obvious to all in Lantai County. I'm the first one who doesn't believe you when he says he's a thief calling for a thief. Come on! Drag this guy down and put him on the top fifty." Let's see who he is instigated by!"

"Wait a minute! This court is trying the case, Mr. Qian, please don't interfere..."

Wang Zhifu raised his hand and sat back, and ordered people to bring everyone from the Zhang family to the hall. Zhao Guanren looked at his cheap sister-in-law and smiled slightly. The military attache's survivors don't need to kneel down.

"Who is kneeling in the hall?"

Wang Zhifu pointed to the cook who was kneeling on the ground. She was easily recognizable in her apron.

"Chen, Mrs. Chen..."

The cook trembled in horror and said: "Now, now I am the cook of the Zhang family. I don't know about the poison powder. It's just that the big girl let me hide in the Zuixian Tower. I didn't dare to disobey, so I did it. I don't know about the poison powder. What is it!"

"Which big girl? Where is it now..."

Wang Zhifu stared at her like a torch, and the cook replied: "Young master's big girl, Yu Niang! She ordered me to put the poison powder into Zuixian Tower at noon, saying that the young master needed to handle the case, and she never did it again after that." When I go back to the mansion, I don't know where she is!"

"Your Honor!"

An officer stepped forward and clasped his fists and said, "Someone saw Yuniang of the Zhang family riding a donkey, carrying a bundle, and fleeing out of the city alone. They must have gotten the news and fled in fear of crime!"

"Clap clap clap..."

Zhao Guanren suddenly clapped his hands and said with a smile: "Your Excellency is indeed wise, the old fox of the Bian family is even more intelligent, I have not counted thousands of times, and my housekeeper's maid would betray me, just say ten thousand, is this box poisonous?" Fan, you have to test before you speak!"
