Chapter 110 Prison
Zhou Qing looked at Zhou Huaishan, who knelt on the ground and hardly moved.
The academic official, however, glanced at Zhou Huaishan with disgust and patted Chen Guang on the shoulder.
"Don't worry, as the academic official of this province, I will definitely make the decision for you."
Chen Guang was full of gratitude and bowed.
Gao He said: "But if they are desperate, they will use some despicable means."
"As long as I am here, I will definitely protect you!"
"Thank you for your love!"
Chen Guang and the others bowed in gratitude.
After receiving the courtesy, the academic official turned to the county magistrate and said: "Since you want to investigate the case, then take the suspect into prison."
The county magistrate did not dare to disobey. With an order, Zhou Huaishan was taken away.
Before leaving, Zhou Huaishan saw Zhou Qing in the crowd and quickly gave her a look.
Zhou Qing understood and did not follow.
The first trial of the case ended like this.
Zhou Huaishan was taken away, and Zhou Qing turned around and left the crowd.
Originally, she wanted to go straight to Yunhai Bookstore to find Xu Feng, but she was stopped as soon as she came out of the crowd.
"Niece, niece!"
Looking in the direction of the voice, Zhou Qing saw Zhao Dacheng waving at her not far away.
"Uncle Zhao."
"Don't say anything, I know everything, let's go to your house first."
"I want to go to the prison to find my father, I don't know if Manager Xu can."
Before Zhou Qing finished speaking, Zhao Dacheng suppressed his voice and said: "My elder brother is at your house, let's go home first."
Upon hearing this, Zhou Qing looked at Zhao Dacheng with a face of surprise.
Xu Feng is actually at my house?
Zhao Dacheng nodded.
As he spoke, the people who were watching the trial of the case in the county government also dispersed.
The voices of discussion were high and low, some said that there was a hidden story in the case, and some said that Zhou Huaishan was a piece of shit.
Zhou Qing and Zhao Dacheng went straight home through the waves of condemnation.
When they returned, Xu Feng was talking to Zhou Huailin. Seeing them coming back, Xu Feng nodded to Zhou Qing.
"What happened?" Zhou Qing asked impatiently.
Zhou Huailin said, "This morning, Chen Guang and his men beat drums in public outside the county government office and filed a complaint against my second brother. Half an hour ago, the county magistrate came to arrest my second brother in person."
Xu Feng said, "Although the county magistrate arrested him, he did not believe that Brother Huaishan could do such a thing.
So, rest assured, Miss Zhou, the county magistrate will definitely clear Brother Huaishan's name.
I waited for Miss Zhou here on purpose to reassure you."
Zhou Huailin's face was livid, "This must have been done by Zhou Huaihai. He didn't burn us to death last time, but he used this method again this time!"
Apart from Zhou Huaihai, Zhou Huailin could not think of anyone else who was crazy enough to harm them!
Xu Feng also nodded, "The county magistrate also meant the same thing."
Listening to what Xu Feng and Zhou Huailin said, Zhou Qing was silent for a moment, "So, the county magistrate also knew that the academician was coming, right?"
Xu Feng was stunned, "Academician?"
Zhou Qing then told what had just happened in the county government office.
After hearing this, Xu Feng's face suddenly changed.
"Isn't the academician of this province Hu Weiyue?
When Hu took over as the prefect, he took office together with the academician of this province. Although it was not in accordance with the rules, it was the will of the court.
How come there is a new academician?"
Zhou Qing didn't know much about the position of academician.
"Is the position of the academician a high-ranking official?"
Xu Feng shook his head. "The position does not have a fixed rank, but it is the same as the governor, and the emperor's report is heard. Anyone who can serve as the academician must be from the Hanlin Academy and be in charge of the provincial examination."
"Such a high-ranking official!" Zhou Huailin's face turned pale. "How did this academician come by chance! He can't be related to the case."
Xu Feng frowned. "It's hard to say. Generally, the academician will not be easily changed."
As he said, he stood up and said, "Well, I'll go to the county government office now to see what the specific situation is. You should also go to the prefecture city as soon as possible to ask for help from Lord Hu just in case."
Before Xu Feng finished speaking, Zhou Huailin hurriedly stood up and walked out.
"Qing girl, let's go now."
"Third uncle, you go to the prefecture government office to find Lord Hu and explain the situation to him. I'll go to the county government office first to see my father."
Zhou Huailin thought about it, yes, two people going is the same as going alone, he was too anxious to be confused.
"Okay, I'm leaving."
After saying this, Zhou Huailin almost ran out of the door and headed straight for the mule cart.
As soon as he left, Zhou Qing said to Zhou Ping: "Pingzi, go to Bimozhai to find Uncle Zhong and tell him about our family situation."
Zhou Ping said: "Li Yi went there as soon as the incident happened, and he hasn't come back yet."
"Miss Zhou is going to the county government office, so let's go together. With me here, it will be easier for you to go to the prison." Xu Feng said.
"Thank you, Manager Xu."
After sincerely thanking him, Zhou Qing and Xu Feng set off.
Zhao Dacheng, who was not assigned a task, was silent for a moment, turned around and left.
The prison cell of the county government office.
Because of the personal relationship between Xu Feng and the county magistrate, the jailer did not make it difficult for Zhou Qing to go in.
When Zhou Qing went in, Zhou Huaishan was sitting on a haystack in the prison cell.
He was weaving something with a few hays in his hand.
There were four or five cricket cages that had been woven around him.
Zhou Qing
When he saw the cricket cages, Zhou Qing almost knelt down to Zhou Huaishan.
"Dad?"
Zhou Huaishan didn't know whether he was too focused on making the cages or what, he didn't notice Zhou Qing coming in, and only looked up when he heard Zhou Qing's voice.
"My daughter!"
Putting down the half-knitted cage in his hand, Zhou Huaishan went straight to the cell door and looked at Zhou Qing pitifully through the wooden door.
"Daughter, I really didn't do anything worse than a beast. I can't do anything like that."
Zhou Qing
"Of course, I won't be able to change the product. I don't like this one! By the way, are you here to bring me the fried chicken with peppercorns?"
As he said that, Zhou Huaishan looked at Zhou Qing's empty hands, with a look of disappointment on his face, and howled miserably, "Ah, you didn't bring it with you. Didn't I wink at you?"
Zhou Qing
She imagined countless scenarios of meeting Zhou Huaishan in prison, but she did not expect this one.
"You winked at me and asked me to bring fried chicken with peppercorns?"
"Of course, what else? Didn't you see that I gestured like a chicken and twitched the corners of my mouth to express spicy?"
Zhou Qing
God is so spicy!
You were taken to the cell at that time. I can understand that your expression meant fried chicken with peppercorns?
Zhou Qing took a weak breath and leaned against the cell door, "Dad, I thought you wanted me to come to the cell to see you quickly."
Zhou Huaishan looked at Zhou Qing quietly.
"You didn't bring any chicken, why did you come to see me?"
That expression expresses one meaning: You are an unfilial daughter!
Zhou Qing
"Dad, you know you are in jail, right?"
Zhou Huaishan rolled his eyes, "Nonsense! Do you think I'm stupid?"
Zhou Qing
Raising his hand as if waving a fly, Zhou Qing muttered silently: Forget it, let's get down to business!
