Chapter 35 The Dance Troupe's Entrustment
"Have you forgotten your mission?"
Now the dance troupe is tied to them. If the dance troupe is detained, they cannot escape responsibility. How will they go to Beijing then?
As a result, Shang Wenqi was not in a hurry at all and hid here like an invisible man.
Ning Ning tilted her head, feeling quite blessed.
This guy is so calm, could he have a way to escape? Otherwise, how could he be so calm and composed?
In that case, there was nothing for her to worry about.
Ning Ning put away her anxiety and sat down calmly along with Shang Wenqi.
Shang Wenqi glanced at the person who sat obediently next to him and curled the corners of his mouth.
However, they were able to remain calm, but others might not be, especially the boss, who had left his hometown to escape the war. He also hoped to become famous in Kyoto and stay in the wealthy Daliang from then on.
As a result, we were stopped before we even got halfway there.
Nearly a hundred people in the group depend on him for their livelihood. If something really happens to him, how can he face everyone?
Moreover, their group also brought Mr. Chu and Mrs. Chu...
When he said this, the class owner suddenly came to his senses. He pushed through the crowd and found Shang Wenqi and Ning Ning squatting silently in the corner.
"Mr. Chu, Madam Chu, you are the teachers of the Xiao Zhizhou family, and you have documents for going to the capital to handle business. To put it bluntly, it has nothing to do with our dance troupe. I will find a way to get them to let you go."
?
The two were a little stunned. They thought the boss was here to ask them to find a solution, but it turned out that he was here to kick them out.
"Don't worry, we will definitely not let you down." The class leader took out a wooden box from his arms. The wooden box was heavy and no one knew what was inside.
"This is my savings over the years. Just consider it as your travel expenses to the capital. It's better to give it to you than to let these yamen runners get away with it."
"You don't have to do this..." Ning Ning refused: "Things haven't reached a dead end yet, why are you doing this?"
The boss's sudden last words were too exaggerated.
The class owner shook his head: "We are all trapped here and there is only one way to go, you are our only hope."
Ning Ning realized belatedly that the class owner was pinning his hopes of getting out on them. All the talk about not getting them into trouble and giving them money as travel expenses were just polite words.
What the boss really wants is to find a way to get them out after they get out, and these are considered as the money the boss gives to buy their lives, but the ancients did not like to explain things in detail.
Ning Ning was both amused and confused. If she couldn't guess all the twists and turns, then all the efforts of the class owner would be in vain.
She glanced at Shang Wenqi without leaving a trace. He looked calm, as if he had guessed what the class leader meant when he opened his mouth.
Ning Ning thought about it and weighed the pros and cons and found that she and Shang Wenqi were indeed the only hope of the dance troupe. After all, their current identities were teachers in Xiao Zhizhou's family, and they could be considered half of the official family.
Thinking of this, Ning Ning generously took the box from the class owner: "Okay, we will definitely try our best."
The class owner smiled with relief: "Then I'll leave it to you."
Then the class owner knocked on the cell door again with an air of a man ready to join the army.
"Is there anyone there? Is there anyone there? I want to say something!"
The people in the dance troupe still had great faith in their leader, and when they saw him shouting like that, they all started to sing along with him.
After a while, the bailiff was really called over.
"What are you yelling about? Do you want to die?"
"Sir, please understand that there are two people in our dance troupe who are not members of the troupe, but are the teachers of Mr. Xiao, the governor of Xingyuan Prefecture. They are here in the capital on the orders of Mr. Xiao to do business. Please, Sir, please let them go."
"The tutor of Prefect Xiao?" The two yamen runners were indeed attracted and looked at Shang Wenqi and Ning Ning at the same time.
At that time, Shang Wenqi's face was hidden in the scarf. He hunched over slightly and handed over the identity document.
The yamen runner looked at Shang Wenqi suspiciously: "Are you the teacher?"
"He is my husband, and I am the tutor of the daughter of Prefect Xiao." Ning Ning saluted slightly to the two yamen runners. To be honest, she restrained her brows and pretended to be a noble when she saluted, and she still looked very decent.
"My husband and I are going to the capital to work for the governor Xiao, so we really can't delay any longer. Please help us, sir."
Ning Ning said as she handed them both a silver ingot.
This ingot of silver is worth quite a bit, a full ten taels.
These were the 100 taels of silver given to me by Governor Xiao before I left, all of which were in the form of ten taels of silver ingots.
The yamen runner took a look and found that there was indeed the official silver seal and Xiao Zhizhou's private seal on it, which meant that it was indeed owned by Xiao Zhizhou.
The two men tacitly put the silver into their sleeves, took the documents proving their identities with them, and turned to leave.
After a while, someone really came and took them both away separately.
At that time, the troupe owner and all the dancers were looking at them with hope.
Ning Ning nodded at them: "We will take good care of ourselves, you should also take care of yourself."
"Okay, okay." The class owner watched them leave with tears in his eyes.
The dancers couldn't help crying either. They felt that this separation would last a lifetime... When they thought of this, they couldn't help but burst into tears.
Soon the cell was closed again, and endless darkness came again.
On the other side, Ning Ningshang Wenqi was taken directly from the prison to the county government office, where the Qizhou prefect, Lord Su, was already sitting in the seat of honor.
When the two of them arrived, they naturally exchanged greetings and introduced themselves.
Lord Su calmly flipped through their documents and said, "Since Lord Xiao is your guarantor, there is nothing suspicious about you. Daliang is not peaceful right now, and the journey to the capital is long, so you should go quickly."
Then he asked the lawyer to return the document to them.
Ning Ning spoke at the right time: "Sir, I have another request."
"what?"
"We can testify for the dance troupe that they are definitely not the murderers of the imperial officials. We have been together these days, and we can provide them with an alibi."
"Where do you think this murder happened?" Lord Su looked profound.
Ning Ning was bewildered: "Didn't a murder happen in Qizhou? We just arrived in Qizhou today after coming from Xingyuan Prefecture. We really don't know what happened here."
Lord Su shook his head helplessly: "You only know one thing but not the other. The murder was not in Qizhou, but on the road from Xingyuanfu to Qizhou."
“???” Ning Ning’s eyes widened: “But…but…we didn’t see any imperial officials’ carriages along the way…”
"They are members of the imperial court in disguise."
“???” Ning Ning was filled with doubt and immediately identified the murderer as someone.
A few days ago, Shang Wenqi was cleaning his knife in the carriage, and he seemed to have some injuries on his body. Could it be...
Even though Ning Ning was horrified and knew it was not appropriate to expose herself at this time, she still remained dazed and ignorant.
Lord Su said: "I detained all the people who came from Xingyuan Prefecture to Qizhou. The dance troupe was the last wave."
The implication is that he is not arresting people randomly.
