Chapter 83: out of spirits

Chapter 83 Lost Soul

Pei Yi ran to Linhe County by herself, except for the Pei family's parents and elder brother, outsiders didn't know the inside story at all - everyone thought that Pei Yi was rejected by the Pei family, so she was assigned to come here. This is a small county far away from the capital.

"So that's how it is." The little boy Mao Sai suddenly realized, "No wonder Pei Sanlang is so weak today, it turns out that it is because there is no support from the Pei family."

"The boss is still amazing, he can see through the essence at a glance."

Xu Hansan laughed loudly.

This time, although he didn't protect Bai Liuye very well, but he sent the "culprit" Pei Yi to the prison, which is considered to have paid off.

The other end.

Zhao Butou took his younger brothers and led Pei Yi to the county government prison.

He opened the fence door of a cell, and he stood at the door, high above him and said: "Go in, Mr. Pei Lang."

Pei Yi glanced at the damp and dark cell covered with straw on the ground, frowned and shook her head: "The conditions are too bad, I can't live here."

Zhao Butou was stunned for a moment, and said angrily: "Mr. Pei Lang, this is a prison, not an inn! Do you still want to choose a luxury room in the cell?"

Pei Yi's eyes lit up, she turned her head and looked at Zhao Butou expectantly.

Zhao Butou suddenly became depressed.

With a dark face, he put on airs and said: "Mr. Pei should hurry in! All the cells in our county look like this."

Pei Yi shook her head resolutely, and said nonsense with a serious face and resistance: "Where is this place where people live? Look, there are bird droppings on the haystack."

Zhao Butou was so depressed, he retorted violently: "This is a prison cell, where did the birds come from? There is no way there is bird droppings on the haystack, even if there is droppings, it is the **** of the prisoner!"

Pei Yi immediately pinched her nose with one hand, and quickly fanned the folding fan with the other. She took a few steps back quickly, and shouted in disgust, "Oh, this cell is dirtier than a latrine, where can I live?"

Zhao Butou smoked from the seven orifices, gritted his teeth and said: "Mr. Pei, don't delay on purpose, even if you talk bad words today, you must go to the cell!"

Pei Yi spread her hands and said with a troubled expression: "Captain Zhao, I am willing to cooperate with you. But this cell is too dirty, I really can't get out of it."

Speaking of this, he stepped forward a few steps to Zhao Butou, lowered his voice so that only the two of them could hear: "How about this, Zhao Butou, you can arrange a clean and bright cell for me."

Zhao Butou burst into anger, as long as he turned back, a small hard object would be stuffed into the palm of Pei Yi.

This feeling is so familiar, that Zhao Butou glanced through his fingers and knew that it was definitely a piece of broken silver.

In Dazhou, one tael of silver was worth one thousand copper coins.

As the head of the police, his monthly salary is only 800 copper coins.

Now the broken silver in his hand is at least five hundred Wen, which is more than half a month's salary.

Zhao Butou is in a good mood.

He suddenly felt that he had found a way to make a fortune, and the Bai family gave him money, hoping that he would lock up Mr. Pei. This third master Pei gave him money again, hoping that he could put some water in the prison.

Taking money at both ends, won’t it make a lot of money?

Zhao Butou grinned, revealing a mouthful of big yellow teeth. He stuffed the broken silver into his wide belt, and said roughly: "Okay, I will arrange a new cell for you, Third Lord."

Pei Yi had a look of contempt in her eyes, but she said with a smile on her face, "Thank you Catcher Zhao."

Zhao Tutou led Pei Yi through the dark corridor, and then his vision became wider.

There are two large rooms here, both of which are spacious, with good lighting from the windows, and the whole room is bright and majestic. The interior decoration is not luxurious, but it is considered top-of-the-line in this small county.

If these two rooms were not in the prison itself, Pei Yi would not have been able to tell that this was actually a prison cell—tsk tsk, this is no different from staying in a high-end inn in Linhe County.

"Which room is the third master satisfied with?" Catcher Zhao took the money, and his attitude became fawning, "The one on the left has a better orientation, and you will feel good living there."

Pei Yi sneered and said, "I'm in jail now, how can I be in a good mood?"

Zhao caught his head and choked, and said suggestively: "Although the third master has committed some crimes this time, it is not a big deal. As long as the county magistrate judges the case quickly, you will go out soon."

Pei Yi glanced at Zhao Butou, Pi Liyang Qiu smiled.

This is asking her for money again in disguise.

OK, she will.

It's just that, I'm afraid that catcher Zhao will not only vomit back his capital and profits to her, but also may lose his little life.

Pei Yi took out another broken piece of silver from the satin pouch at her waist and handed it out, said with a faint smile, "I also ask Catcher Zhao to speak a few words for me in front of the magistrate."

"It should be, it should be." Catcher Zhao took the money and left cheerfully.

Pei Yi smiled contemptuously, turned around and looked up at the cell again.

She remembered that in the book, after Huo Yuan ascended the throne, she made a private visit in microservices, and found out that there were luxury suites specially prepared for wealthy people in the government prison.

Huo Yuan was furious, and immediately ordered a thorough investigation of the matter, and finally beheaded more than 300 county magistrates.

More than three hundred.

There were only a thousand or so counties in Dazhou, and Huo Yuan beheaded almost one-third of the county magistrates, thus earning him the name of a tyrant.

Now, she has personally experienced this luxurious prison cell—if she reports this matter to the current Holy Majesty, how will the old emperor deal with it?

Pei Yi was deep in thought when she suddenly heard someone say loudly: "One crab, eight claws, and the one with two pointed ends..."

Yo, someone punching?

Pei Yi became interested, and walked over looking for the sound—oh, I have to mention one thing here. In such a luxurious cell, she also has a very considerate additional service.

That is, she can freely enter and exit the cell—that is to say, as long as she does not escape, she can wander around the entire prison at will, and no one will stop her.

This place of law enforcement that upholds justice for the people has become so corrupt, one can imagine the appearance of a dynasty.

Pei Yi shook her head involuntarily, and suddenly felt that there was a long way to go to help the quasi-tyrant Huo Yuan clear the court.

"Hey, Mr. Pei!" the jailer greeted her fawningly.

Pei Yi looked at the jailers who were gambling around the table, and said with a smirk, "What are you playing, shall I join one?"

The other end.

Wu Kunzhi, the deputy leader of the Dark Pavilion, learned that his third young master had been arrested and imprisoned, so he rushed to Qinghe County immediately.

Qinghe County has thirteen counties under its jurisdiction, one of which is Linhe County.

The prefect of the county was frightened out of his wits when he heard that Pei Jiasanlang had been taken to prison by the county government servants under his jurisdiction.
