Qiao Yi

In the dark and damp dungeon, Mrs. Wang was locked in a cell inside.

Wang's life has been glorious for half of her life, but she never thought that she would be imprisoned in a dungeon one day. At first, she was still shouting for injustice, and someone let her out. After shouting for a long time, her voice became hoarse and no one paid attention to her. Not even a sip of water, she sat on the ground slumped.

The pearl hairpin on her hair had fallen somewhere on the way here, her hair was disheveled, and her clothes were wrinkled and dirty.

"Why is that?"

Wang looked at the dungeon where the spider webs were crawling, and there were a few mice chirping and crawling past, so scared that she huddled in a corner and dared not move.

"bang bang bang-"

"Eat, eat..."

The jailer opened the door and went in, and went in to distribute food to the prisoners in the prison.

The prisoners who have been locked up in the cell for a long time heard the sound and knew that there was food to eat. They all ran to the fence, reached out to pick up the food on the ground, and stuffed it into their mouths in a hurry, for fear that the food would be eaten if they were slow. will be robbed.

"Come on, let me out, let me out..." Wang rushed over and shouted at the people outside through the door.

The officer has long been used to this kind of prisoner who just came in, he sneered, and advised: "I advise you to save your energy, everyone who comes in here screams wronged and wants to go out, but look, they are not Are they all locked up here?"

After the prisoner finished eating, he went outside and locked the cell door, and outside was the prisoner guarding the cell.

"No, no, I was wronged, I was really wronged..." Mrs. Wang looked at the two bowls on the ground, but didn't go to take them. Soon a few mice crawled over, crawled into the bowls and took all the things. Eat clean.

"Don't, don't come here..."

"Ahhhhhhh..."

The prisoners in other cells had become accustomed to the sound of someone yelling, and did not respond in any way.

Soon the night fell, and she couldn't see her fingers in the prison. Wang hid in a corner and shivered all night.

At dawn on the second day, a cluster of light came in from the high window and entered the dungeon. The woman huddled in the corner of the wall didn't know whether she was awake or asleep, and she huddled there motionless.

"Snapped!"

"Please be accommodating."

The prison chief weighed the money in his hand, put it in his arms, and asked someone to open the cell, "Hurry up and read it."

"Yes." The boy returned to their master. Qiao Zhengzong led the boy and followed the leading prisoner into the cell.When the prisoners in the prison saw someone coming, they all ran to the prison door, stretched out their hands and shouted "I am wronged" and "Let me out"...

The jailer knocked on the cell door twice with the big knife in his hand, causing the prisoners on both sides to withdraw their hands in fright.

"Okay, the person you want to meet is here, if you have something to say, hurry up."

Qiao Zhengzong's complexion was not very good-looking, he glanced at the servant, and the servant stuffed some money into the prison guard's hand, and the prison prisoner benefited, and walked a few steps back.

"Husband, husband..." Wang Shi, who was huddled in the corner, heard the voice, opened his eyes and saw the person coming, his eyes lit up with the light of hope, stood up from the ground, ran over in two or three steps, Grabbing the cell door, wanting to reach out to grab the man outside, begging: "Husband, husband, save me, I don't want to stay here...you save me..."

Qiao Zhengzong looked at Wang with complicated eyes. He took a step forward, looked at his wife who had aged ten years overnight, and asked, "Did Xueer's death have anything to do with you?"

"What?" When Wang heard this, there was a moment of astonishment and panic on her face, but she quickly covered it up, and quickly shook her head in denial: "Didn't she die in childbirth back then? It's none of my business." ?I do not know anything."

Qiao Zhengzong stared at Wang Shi. They were husband and wife and shared the same bed for more than ten years. It was not that he didn't know Wang Shi completely.It was because of his understanding that he could see the slightest change in Wang's face.

"It really has nothing to do with you?" Qiao Zhengzong looked at Wang with complicated eyes, and asked in a deep voice, "Do you know why you were caught in prison this time?"

"Why, why?" Wang Shi still doesn't know what's going on, why she was arrested here, is it because of the dead woman?When she did that thing back then, she had already dealt with it completely, so how could she leave something behind?No, absolutely not, not that.

Qiao Zhengzong looked into his wife's eyes and said word by word: "It was Brother Yi who sued you for killing his mother."

"What?" Wang couldn't believe it, it was that little bastard!

If I had known that she shouldn't have stopped her back then and let my husband throw that little beast to death, I wouldn't have caused so many troubles for her now.Sure enough, that woman and her son were born to conquer her!Wang shook her head and cried, "I don't know, husband, I really don't know anything... Take me out quickly, I don't want to stay here anymore."

She doesn't want to stay here for a moment, she wants to go out, she wants to go out.

"I can't take you out, I have no right to take you out." Qiao Zhengzong knew that his wife hadn't told him the truth, and he could tell from his wife's expression that the death of his concubine back then was most likely due to his wife Wang's death. related.

His Cher...

The concubine's smiling face flashed in his mind, and a trace of nostalgia flashed in the man's eyes. He hated Wang Shi so much in his heart because of how much he loved his beloved woman. The last thing Wang Shi should do was to kill him Beloved Cher.

"What? You can't, why can't you?" Wang looked up at her husband and asked eagerly, "Do you think that woman's death was related to me? She gave birth to a child and died by herself. Yes, what does it have to do with me?"

"Husband, think about Lan'er and Sister Hui. Lan'er is going to take the scientific examination to become an official, and Sister Hui is talking about others..." Mrs. Wang mentioned a pair of sons and daughters, and their son, Qiao Minglan, is the hope of the Qiao family. , Wang quibbled and said: "Husband, I was wronged. That little bastard is now Princess Ming. He has power and power. How easy is it for him to wrong me? It's just a matter of one sentence..."

She hates it, why did she push that little bastard out at that time, so that after that little bastard gained power, he turned around to deal with her!

Wang grabbed his father's clothes with one hand, and their eyes met. Wang asked: "Husband, have you thought about it, in case something happens to me, Lan'er, sister Hui, and you, my husband, we Joe What should we do at home?"

Yes, that woman gave birth to a child and died, so what does it have to do with her?She absolutely cannot admit that the woman's death was related to her. It has been so many years, who can prove that the incident is related to her?

Even if she really kills a concubine, it's just a concubine, and if she dies, she will die!

Qiao Zhengzong looked at his wife's eyes with anger, and he waved away his wife's hand, and asked with his teeth: "How dare you say it, how dare you say it!"

Wang fell to the ground and took a step forward, trying to grab his father's clothes outside. Qiao Zhengzong took a step back and looked at Wang coldly.Wang knelt down on the ground and begged: "Husband, you want me to go out, you take me out... I really don't want to stay here anymore."

Qiao Zhengzong looked at Wang's eyes completely unfamiliar, as if he had never known Wang before.

Seeing that it was almost time, the jailer standing not far away came over and said, "Master Qiao, look, it's almost time, are you going out? Don't make things difficult for the little ones...you can come back another day? "

"I'm leaving. I have someone bring you some food and clothes. You can eat some." Qiao Zhengzong glanced behind, and the servant who followed behind understood, and came forward with a food box , Take out the food in the food box and put it in the cell.

Looking away, Qiao Zhengzong raised his hand to let the prisoner in front lead the way.

"I don't want to eat, I don't want to eat... Don't go, husband, don't go..." Wang lay in front of the cell, reaching out to catch the person who left, but as he walked further and further away, only a back was left for her .

"Don't go, don't go...take me out..."

books

Qiao Minglan, who was studying in the academy, heard that something happened at home, and her husband asked for leave, so she hurried back home. As soon as she got home, she heard that her mother was taken away by an officer and put in prison.Qiao Minglan went to find his father, and asked, "Father, why did the people from the government take A Niang away? What did A Niang do wrong?"

"Who told you to come back?" After sitting in the study and thinking about it all night, Qiao Zhengzong saw the returning son, with a not so good expression on his face, he scolded: "Go back to the academy to read your book, It's none of your business."

"Father, what time is it now? How can my son be interested in studying?" Knowing that something happened to her mother, Qiao Minglan lost her interest in studying. "Father, why don't you think of a way to get your mother out?"

"You..." Qiao Zhengzong was furious when he saw that his son-in-law dared to talk back to him.

Qiao Minglan couldn't find anything from his father, so he turned and left angrily.

It was Qiao Xiuhui who saw her brother coming back and told him what she knew, "Brother, you have to find a way to save your mother." As she spoke, she shed tears again, and took out a handkerchief to wipe the corners of her eyes.

"It's him again! Well, he just wants to make things difficult for us, doesn't he? He is ambitious and deliberately framed our mother!" Upon hearing that this matter was related to Qiao Yi, two groups of anger burst out in Qiao Minglan's eyes, and she was furious and went outside.

"Brother, brother..." Qiao Xiuhui yelled twice from behind, seeing her brother walking away, she asked anxiously: "Is my brother going to do something?"

"Miss, miss, let's go and tell the old lady quickly, will the second young master do something?" The maid who followed said worriedly.

"Okay, let's go and talk to grandma."

The three masters and servants hurried to Mrs. Qiao...

"Call-"

"What's going on?" Qiao Yi, who was sitting in the carriage, saw the carriage stop suddenly, stretched out her hand to lift the curtain, and said to the people outside.

asked.

"Young Master, the Second Young Master is standing in front of you." Wang Dahu replied.

"Oh." Qiao Yi looked at Qiao Minglan, who was blocking in front of his carriage, with a smile on his lips.Qiao Minglan naturally also saw the person sitting in the carriage, the two brothers were extremely jealous when they met, Qiao Minglan shouted: "Qiao Yi, come down for me!"

"Why should I go down?" Qiao Yi said with a face that I would not go down, what can you do to me?

It's not that he didn't know that people from Qiao's family came to him in the past two days, but he didn't see them at all. For this reason, he went out less these two days, just because he didn't want to meet people from Qiao's family.He didn't expect to be stopped by Qiao Minglan when he came back from the medical hall today. He didn't think he and Qiao Minglan had anything to say.

"Did you intentionally get someone to arrest my mother!" Qiao Minglan took two steps forward. If Qiao Yi hadn't been sitting in the carriage, he would have grabbed someone by the collar to question him.

"Look at what you said, what do you mean I let someone arrest your mother on purpose? If your mother doesn't do anything, can the government arrest her?"

Qiao Yi thought this question was very ridiculous, looked at Qiao Minglan as if she was looking at a fool, shook her head, and said with a smile: "If I were you, I would first figure out what's going on , will go to others to ask this question.”

"What do you mean?" Qiao Minglan asked angrily, wishing she could go forward and tear Qiao Yi's face off.

"Heh!" Qiao Yi smiled, not wanting to waste time here with a fool, so she said to the driver, "Let's go." Wang Dahu looked at the person blocking in front, a little hesitant.Qiao Yi said: "Don't worry about him, if he doesn't walk away, he'll run into him, as long as he doesn't kill anyone and keeps his breath alive."

"You!" Hearing Qiao Yi's words, Qiao Minglan pointed at him.

"drive_"

Wang Dahu lashed the horse's buttocks with the whip, and the horse raised its hooves and moved forward.Qiao Minglan, who stood in the front, was pulled by the boy behind and pulled to the side.

Qiao Yi put down the curtain and sat in the carriage, ignoring the people outside.Qiao Minglan, who was behind, could only watch the carriage go away, so angry that he cursed, "What did he mean by that?"

"go!"

"Master, where are you going?"

Seeing their young master angrily walking forward, the servants following behind them followed their young master every step of the way.
