Chapter 326: Still alive
Chapter 326 is still alive
She looked at the people who walked in.
The elders of the clan?
How could the so-called elders of the clan who shunned them after driving their mother and daughter out of their house in Qingyunfang, how could they have found their conscience to visit her?
Could it be... something happened to her mother? !
"Say something quickly, don't delay it too long." The jailer preached to the middle-aged man.
"Yes, Sir, just say a few words and leave..." As the man talked, he stuffed a piece of broken silver into the jailer's hand.
The jailer squeezed the silver in his hand, gave a lukewarm "um", turned and left the cell.
Zhan Yunjiao, who got off the stone bed, frowned suspiciously while looking at the middle-aged man in her sight.
Which elder in her clan is this?
Why does she think she has never seen it before?
On the contrary, it is the young man who looks like a servant...
The middle-aged man did not approach her, but the young man came over with the food box, put the food box on the moldy wooden table, and lowered his head to take out the food inside.
Those dishes are very fragrant.
These aromas are familiar to Zhan Yunjiao after a long absence.
She walked over unconsciously.
But her attention was not on the mouth-watering meals at all, but the profile of the young man's half-dangling eyes——
She stared at that face almost instantly.
"Who... who are you?" When she came to the person, she asked stiffly.
In 's line of sight, the person slowly raised his head.
"Jiaojiao, it's me—"
Zhan Yunjiao’s face changed drastically, her pupils contracted violently, and her mouth opened incredibly: "Big—"
In the next instant, a big hand covered her mouth and blocked her next words.
The young man looked at her, and slowly shook his head to her, his eyes beckoning.
Zhan Yunjiao looked at the person in front of her without blinking, and for a while, she nodded in a daze.
The young man released his hand.
Zhan Yunjiao grabbed his sleeve: "Big Brother...is it really you?! Are you still alive?!"
"It's me." Zhan Yunzhu took her to sit down on a bench: "Jiaojiao, I came to see you, and I brought you your favorite food on weekdays."
Zhan Yunjiao sat down with him, glanced at the food on the table, and confirmed that it was her own brother, she immediately threw herself into her brother’s arms and burst into tears.
Her brother is still alive!
still alive!
She cried very loudly, and the middle-aged man sighed and said, "You kid...Who told you to go the wrong way? What's the point of crying now? Why should I have known this?"
The jailer who wanted to come forward heard this, so he stopped paying attention.
"Brother..." Zhan Yunjiao almost cried, wiped her tears with her sleeve, choked up and said, "Since you are still alive, why have you never returned home to see my mother and me? Where have you been these days? "
She really resented her brother for ignoring her and her mother, but when her brother suddenly died and appeared in front of her at this time, she still felt that the brother in front of her could still be her support.
Just like when I was young.
"Jiaojiao, I have encountered some things and have had no other troubles. Before the plan was successful, I couldn't show others as my original identity." Zhan Yunzhu said in a guilty tone: "I have always been worried about you and my mother, and I often use secretly. People inquire about your news—"
Zhan Yunjiao immediately nodded: "I knew...Big brother must be in trouble! I will never really leave my mother and I alone!"
Speaking, the hand holding the sleeve of the brother's shirt became tighter, and he looked forward to say: "Big brother, you are here to save me, right? You must have a way to take me out, right?"
"Jiaojiao, don't worry, I will save you." Zhan Yunzhu looked at the girl in front of him as if he was a life-saving straw, and said seductively, "However, you have to listen to your eldest brother."
"I listen!" Zhan Yunjiao nodded again and again: "I will do what my eldest brother asks me to do!"
Zhan Yunzhu held her shoulders and said: "There is not much time, I will only say it once, Jiaojiao, you must listen carefully."
"good……!"
Zhan Yunjiao swallowed her nervous saliva and tried her best to calm herself down, so that she could remember her brother's next words clearly enough.
"……"
Several flying insects fluttered around the lantern and flame on the stone wall, disturbing the already dim firelight in the prison.
……
The next day, when the sky first broke, Ji Dong got up.
After washing up, he went to the study to read as usual. Recently, he concentrated on researching a miscellaneous book that he collected accidentally, to the effect of teaching people how to be a good and upright official while also making some money.
The person who wrote this book must be in the same situation as him, so the writing is meticulous, and many methods are worth trying-although there are not many hands, mosquito legs are also fleshy.
After reading it carefully for half an hour, Master Ji stopped the breakfast and went to the front yard to deal with official affairs.
"That Zhan Yunjiao, still refuses to confess his accomplices?" Ji Dong asked the servant who reported the matter with him while looking at the official documents that need to be processed today.
"The subordinates are about to talk to the adults about this - the adults don't know. Soon after the Zhan clan left last night, Zhan Yunjiao seemed to have suddenly figured it out, saying that he would like to tell the truth that he hadn't explained before. Tell it all, no more concealment."
Ji Dong was surprised.
Co-authored last night, the elders in the Cham family actually tried to persuade others to confess and be kind?
I deliberately approached the Ministry of War Shangshufu and other relations to persuade people, look at this awareness of others, in contrast, should the person who took advantage of the chaos to pick up the golden leaf for his own should feel ashamed?
"What did she hire?" Ji Dong asked hurriedly, "Why didn't you report such an important matter to the official last night?"
The veteran replied: "Back to the Lord, she did not confess anything last night. She only said that she was going to confront someone in court. I implore the Lord to rise to the court today to retry the case. In the hall, she will explain everything."
This woman has made up her mind to confess in the hall, and even so, it is useless for him to find an adult in the middle of the night.
Although I have been an official for a long time, there are few thick hairs, and other adults can't take care of it, but the hair of my adults still has to be distressed by my subordinates.
Ji Dong twisted his eyebrows slightly because of thinking.
Why do we have to confront people in court?
Are you still afraid that after secretly confessing the mastermind, he will shield that person?
Is this questioning his character?
Think about it carefully, this is indeed something he can do...
After all, if he really confessed secretly and recruited someone with some power, then he wouldn't have to go directly to get someone. In order to appear that he is not so arrogant and defiant, he still has to say hello somehow.
And as soon as this hello, the obstacles increase, and things easily become troublesome.
Ji Dong summed up, and immediately said: "Promote the hall."
The people who gave the confession in the hall are listening, and they can only be summoned for interrogation right away-so it's not that he doesn't give face, and it is difficult for him to do it under the eyes of everyone.
Master Ji, who was deliberately trying to make it difficult for him to do it, was soon promoted.
Good evening, everybody.
