Rebirth: From being expelled from the imperial court to becoming a high-ranking official

No one in the group expected that Yan Guixiang, who was half-dead just now, could still have this strength.

"Shut up and behave yourself!" the prison boss yelled.

Yan Guixiang shouted a few more times and finally couldn't hold on any longer and stopped gasping for breath.

Wu Bantou felt that he saw some hope, perhaps the situation was not that bad.

"Go out first, and talk later."

As they talked, several people walked back together.

Yan Guixiang anxiously crouched forward a few steps and grabbed the iron bars of the prison door: "I didn't commit adultery, I am innocent! It was Jin Biao who wanted to harm me!"

Wu Bantou brought Zhuzi back to the post station, and Zhang San and Li Si also came back.

"Did you find out anything?"

Zhang San and Li Si told Wu Bantou all the news they had heard.

Finally, Zhang San expressed his own opinion: "...Let's not talk about Yan Guixiang's case, the deaths of Jin Biao's previous wives are also very suspicious."

Wu Bantou could naturally see it, but...

"Let's not talk about how the previous Mrs. Jin died, let's deal with the current matter first."

Wu Bantou didn't want to cause any trouble.

"Hey, let's just ask around. It doesn't have to be useful, but what if it comes in handy?"

Zhang San and Li Si are just hangers-on, so naturally they enjoy watching the fun and taking advantage of the situation.

The bigger the case became, the more achievements Qin Yunhe made if the verdict was overturned. Naturally, the better their job was.

Wu Bantou did not argue with them about this matter, but just talked about what he saw and heard in the prison.

"Today, Zhuzi and I went to the prison to check on Yan Guixiang. She was seriously injured. I thought she might not be able to be brought to the prison, but I didn't expect that she still had the strength to cry out loudly. I'm not sure whether to bring her to the prison."

If Yan Guixiang dies on the way, it will be troublesome. It is better to let the magistrate's confidant decide.

Zhang San and others naturally wanted to get him to the government office as much as possible.

As for whether Yan Guixiang would die on the road, they cared, but they cared more about not being able to get promoted to the government office and not being able to do their job well.

"Although he was tortured, it has been over a month now and he is still conscious. He must have made it through."

Zhang San weighed it up and said, "How about... finding a doctor to take a look first? Maybe it looks serious but it's actually nothing serious."

Wu Bantou thought about it and agreed.

"That's fine. Then let's find a doctor to check her out first. If the problem is not serious, we'll take her to the government office soon."

In the afternoon, Wu Bantou took a doctor to the prison.

"Brother, why aren't death row prisoners like Yan Guixiang held in solitary confinement?"

As Wu Bantou walked in, he asked the prison boss.

"Hey, there aren't enough cells, so all the adulterers and fugitives are put together."

"Then can we adjust it and move Yan Guixiang to a separate room?"

No one said that nature is not possible.

But now that Wu Bantou had proposed it, and the higher-ups had told the Bantou of the Hall to try to satisfy whatever he wanted. The prison boss immediately asked his men to move the prisoners in several cells and put Yan Guixiang in a cell alone.

When the jailer finished his work, Wu Bantou bowed again and said, "Thank you for your hard work, jailer. I'll let the doctor take a look at her first. You go ahead and do your work."

The cell smelled bad, and the jailer didn't want to stay there, so he hesitated for a moment and then left.

The doctor took Yan Guixiang's pulse, cleaned the wound and applied some medicine.

After he finished dealing with the matter, Wu Bantou asked him to go out and wait.

Wu, the squad leader, squatted down and said, "Yan Guixiang, I am the squad leader from the hall. Our master has read your case and feels that there are a few unclear points. I want to ask you in detail."

Yan Guixiang had long realized that this man was not a bailiff of the county government, and she knew that this might be her only chance of survival.

Just now, because the jailer and the doctor were there, she didn't dare to say anything.

Before, she was afraid of missing the opportunity to ask for help, so she couldn't help but cry out for justice. Afterwards, she realized that the county magistrate and Jin Biao were in cahoots. If she cried out for justice in person and angered the county magistrate, she might lose her life.

No one else was around at the moment, and when he heard Wu Bantou's question, he quickly knocked his head to the ground, "Sir, help me! I'm being wronged. That Jin Biao is simply an evil ghost."

The reason I ran away was because I found out that he had poisoned my food. It was not me who wanted to murder Jin Biao, it was Jin Biao who wanted to murder me! The adulterer they were talking about was actually my own brother. How could I have an affair with my own brother?

The county magistrate was in cahoots with Jin Biao. He didn't listen to me at all and beat my brother to death. He also accused me of adultery. My parents are nowhere to be found. They must have been killed by Jin Biao. Sir, save me, save me!"

Yan Guixiang was crying but she tried to hold her voice back, which made her throat hurt.

After listening to Yan Guixiang's story, Wu Bantou knew that this was going to be trouble.

If it was just Jin Biao's false accusation, then it would be nothing more than overturning her case.

But Yan Guixiang implied that the county magistrate had perverted the law and colluded with Jin Biao to frame her. If this were true, the county magistrate would have serious problems.

There were footsteps outside. It must be the jailer who saw the doctor go out and wanted to come in to check.

Wu Bantou quickly shushed her with a hushing sound and whispered, "Just talk about Jin Biao. Don't ever mention the magistrate again in this prison, otherwise no one can guarantee that you will leave this prison alive."

Yan Guixiang also understood what was going on and stopped talking immediately.

"Wu Bantou, what's going on? Any questions?"

"Oh it's nothing, I'm just about to go out."

Having said that, Wu Bantou stood up and left.

After returning to the post station, Wu Bantou told a few people what had happened, and they were silent for a while.

"Given the current situation... I'm afraid I have to mention it. Otherwise, if Yan Guixiang dies in prison, this matter will be difficult to handle."

Wu Bantou naturally understood what Zhang San meant.

I guess no one had thought that this case would be brought to the provincial government.

Now that things have come to this, if anyone wants to let this matter go unresolved or to completely prevent investigation, the best way is to kill Yan Guixiang.

"I asked the doctor, and he said that although Yan Guixiang looked seriously injured, her pulse was relatively stable. Although she couldn't walk, it shouldn't be a problem for her to take a car to the palace."

After saying this, Wu Bantou looked at Zhang San.

Zhang San said: "Why don't we arrange to bring her to the government office as soon as possible?"

Every extra day means one more variable.

If Yan Guixiang really died in prison, their mission would be a failure.

----

Fuyu County Government

"Sir, otherwise... we can take advantage of the fact that Yan Guixiang has not been taken away yet and no one knows about it..." the registrar asked Wei Chengji tentatively.

Wei Chengji frowned.

The most straightforward way to deal with this matter is definitely to let Yan Guixiang die. Once she dies, there will be no evidence and everything will end.

just,

Now the people from the government office have come to pick up the person, and they have already met Yan Guixiang.

If Yan Guixiang suddenly died at this time, he would inevitably be suspected.

especially,

Even if it is found out that he made a wrong judgment in this matter, as long as he insists that he was deceived by Jin Biao, the most he will get is a scolding.

But if Yan Guixiang died, Qin Wen would pursue her relentlessly and eventually find her, which would be a big deal...

Wei Chengji hesitated for a long time and said, "Can it really be done without anyone noticing?"
