Chapter 758: The Disaster of Prison

In front of the Ministry of Revenue Department, everyone stopped when they heard the voice. The headmaster turned his head and looked over. When he saw the commander riding on the horse, he immediately smiled at him. He walked forward in a few steps, bowed and smiled, "So it's Commander Li!"

Commander Li turned over and dismounted, frowned and asked, "Sir, what's wrong here?"

"Several Ghost Square people are making trouble here." The headmaster smiled and said, "It is said that Ghost Square people are barbaric. When I see them today, they are indeed well-known. These Ghost Square people are going to attack me, and I am ordering them to be arrested in prison."

Commander Li glanced at several Gui Fang people and frowned slightly. However, the old man Gui Fang seemed to have found a savior. He immediately went forward and bowed deeply to Commander Li, saying, "Mr. Li, we came from Daqimeng to ask for something that should belong to us. We are not here to cause trouble, and we dare not offend Master Shi."

Commander Li finally said, "Is it for food?"

The headmaster immediately nodded and sighed: "Commander Li, our Ministry of Revenue Department has racked his brains for the military rations of the garrison army. How could there be any surplus grains to hand over to them? Moreover, their mountain silk and other goods were accepted by Huang Zhigui. Now Huang Zhigui has long been a rebel of the court, and the goods have long been in the hands of the Huang family. Logically speaking, our Ministry of Revenue Department not only does not bear any responsibility, but these ghost parties are also suspected of funding the rebellion...!" Before he finished speaking, the ghost parties had already changed color.

Commander Li shook his head and said, "I just come here to ask for food, and there is no need to say anything to support the rebels." He turned over and pondered slightly before saying, "Although Huang Zhigui rebelled, he was the representative of the Ministry of Revenue Department. After all, the affairs he left behind were not his personal affairs, but the affairs of the government government. Since Master Shi took over the Ministry of Revenue Department, it is better to handle the affairs left by Huang Zhigui properly."

The headmaster immediately said solemnly: "The official understands." He turned to the old man Gui Fang and said: "You guys, you have also seen it. Commander Li came here and had something to do with consultation, but he couldn't find time for the time being. So, you go back first and come tomorrow. If the Japanese official is free, let's talk about your affairs."

The old man Gui Fang immediately bowed and said, "Thank you, Master Li." He turned to Commander Li: "Thank you, Master Li."

Commander Li nodded slightly, then turned around and went into the Ministry of Revenue Department. The headmaster smiled and Commander Li left the yamen. When he entered the door, he looked back at the old man Gui Fang, and a cold light flashed through his eyes.

When the old man Gui Fang saw that the master and others entered the yamen, he breathed a sigh of relief and looked left and right. Suddenly he saw Chu Huan not far away. His eyes lit up and he had already walked over here, and said with a smile: "Dake, why are you here too?"

Chu Huan laughed and said, "Japan wants to take a boat trip around Taiyuan City today. He is looking for a river channel and just happened to pass by here."

The old man Gui Fang said, "We can't leave today. We happen to be in the residence, and there are some wines brewed by our Gui Fang people. If Dake is convenient, why not drink a few drinks together?"

Chu Huan said: "Will that disturb?"

"No, no." Old Man Gui Fang looked much better, "Let's go, our residence is not far from here, Dake, please!"

Chu Huan hesitated slightly and did not refuse. He just heard the name Huang Zhigui next to him, and felt that it was very likely that he was from the Huang family. Since this ghost man had contact with Huang Zhigui, he didn't know whether he could learn about the local news about the Huang family from them.

Guifang led the way, and his residence was several streets away from the Ministry of Revenue Department. Moreover, the high-end inns in those prosperous areas of Taiyuan City did not allow Guifang people to stay in, so Guifang people could only find remote old houses to live in. After passing a few streets, it gradually became deserted, and the surrounding environment was much worse. Guifang old man had already explained: "We cannot live in the inns in the city. There are some old houses nearby, and there are no one living in it. We have been here for nearly half a month. We have lived here, which makes Dake laugh."

Chu Huan shook his head and smiled, "It's very quiet here." He asked casually, "Why did the old man go to the government office today?"

The old man Gui Fang smiled bitterly. Before he could speak, He Gu shouted behind him: "Dad, no, look..." Before he finished speaking, he heard the sound of horse hooves. Chu Huan frowned and looked up. He saw a team of people suddenly appearing in an alley in front of him, but they were all officers and soldiers, with more than a dozen people. In amazement, he heard footsteps coming from behind. Chu Huan turned around and caught up with more than a dozen people from behind.

The old man Gui Fang suddenly changed color, and the team in front came immediately. The first person was already sneering: "Are you Gui Fang people who are causing trouble in front of the Ministry of Revenue Department?"

The old man Gui Fang went forward and bowed, "Old man Hexi Valley, I wonder what advice are you going to give me?"

"There's nothing to advise." The man sneered: "Come on, take down this thief."

The soldiers in front of him and behind him were about to come up to pick up people. Chu Huan had already taken two steps forward, carried his hands on his back, and sneered: "Who are you? Why do you take people in broad daylight?"

"Oh, there is another person who is not afraid of death here." The leading general smiled disdainfully: "Look at your outfit, you don't look like a ghost party. Why are you getting involved with them?"

Chu Huan asked back, "Did you have violated the king's law with them?"

"With Guifangren, naturally, he did not violate the king's law." The general said lightly: "But being with the rioters means that he violated the king's law, and the brothers, all of them were taken down."

Guifang's old man He Xigu frowned and said, "Official, you need to have certificates when arresting people. You said we are rebels, what certificates do you have?"

"Making trouble in front of the Ministry of Revenue Department's Office and sneak attack on Master Shi. Isn't this going to rebel?" General Senran said: "I am the head of the Ministry of Justice Department. I am ordered to take you back for interrogation. Don't talk nonsense. If you have something to say, I will talk about it if you have something to go back to the yamen."

He Gu had already jumped out, clenched his fists with both hands, and said angrily: "You dare, I want to see, who dares to do it?"

But the old man Gui Fang had already shouted: "He Gu, retreat."

Xingtou sneered, "You dare to say that you didn't rebel?" He raised his hand and pointed at He Gu with the blade. "This bird man saw that he wanted to rebel. What else is there to say now? Why, you still want to do it. I'm worried that the knife in my hand has not been seen for a long time, but I found an opportunity today."

He Xigu had bowed and said, "Official, he was not intentionally offending. We did come back from the Ministry of Revenue Department, but Master Shi has already told us to come and see you tomorrow. I am afraid that you misunderstood."

"These things cannot be told to me." Xing Tou waved his hand and said, "I'm just ordered to take people." With a wave of his hand, the officers and soldiers rushed forward. He Gu and the two men of Gui Fang stood up and wanted to take action. He Xigu had already called out, and Chu Huan couldn't understand the meaning of this sentence, but after He Gu and the other two dared not take action again. Sun Zikong had approached Chu Huan and lowered his voice and said, "Master, what should we do?"

"Don't do it." Chu Huan whispered: "I want to see what they are doing."

At this time, the officers and soldiers had already come forward and first captured He Gu and three other men of Gui Fang. He Xigu was quite old, but no one took him. Chu Huan and Sun Zikong were dressed as people from Central Plains. Although there was a knife that had already been pushed over, no one grabbed their arms.

"Official, these two have nothing to do with this matter." He Xigu immediately said: "Don't implicate them."

"Walking with you, there is nothing to do with it." Xingtou said coldly: "Take them back to the yamen."

At first, Chu Huan thought that these people were about to take him back to the Ministry of Justice. After arriving at his destination, he found that he did not go to the Ministry of Justice, but directly brought him to the Ministry of Justice Prison.

The Ministry of Justice Prison and the Ministry of Justice Department are not together, but are located in another city. The place is quite remote and deserted. There is a circle of wooden fences in front of the door. The painted black gate looks full of the breath of death. Although it is blue sky and white sun, it seems that a layer of coldness is shrouded in the surroundings.

"Official, why did we put us in prison before we met the Master of the Ministry of Justice?" Hexigu saw something was wrong and frowned: "I want to meet the Master of the Ministry of Justice and find out the reason."

Xingtou smiled and nodded. Someone had already stepped forward to knock on the door of the Ministry of Justice Prison. When the door opened, several men in black came out immediately. They were all prison guards of the Ministry of Justice Prison. One of them approached Xingtou, Xingtou whispered a few words, and the man returned in. After a while, a guy with a fat head was shaking out from the inside, and was white and fat. When Xingtou saw it, he smiled and said, "Yangtou, I have sent you a newcomer here, but you must treat them well."

The fat Yangtou actually held a black cat in his arms and was swaying over. He looked Chu Huan and others like watching goods, and then walked to Xingtou. Xingtou leaned against Yangtou's ear and whispered for a while. The two of them quickly made strange laughs. Yangtou turned around, waved his hand, and signaled to take the person in, from beginning to end, but he didn't say a word.

Chu Huan remained silent and let them lead them into the prison. He was full of high walls inside the prison, which were built like a maze. Finally, he arrived at a prison door. The prison guard opened the prison door and divided the people into two prison cells. Chu Huan, Sun Zikong and Hexigu were locked in a cell, while He Gu and the other two were locked in the next door. There was a thick stone wall between the two prison cells, which was difficult to see each other.

The cell was dim and tight, emitting a smell of stinking. There was a haystack in the corner of the wall, which was obviously a place for sleeping. Chu Huan looked at the opposite side, and there was also a cell opposite. You could vaguely see two people locked up inside, but the two of them were lying on the haystack, motionless, and seemed to be dead. Although there was a stir when Chu Huan and others were locked up, the prisoners in the cell seemed to have no intention of caring about who came.

He Xigu looked very serious. When the prison guard left, he said with apology: "Dake, I'm really sorry. This time he actually implicated you...!"

Chu Huan shook her head with a smile. He Xigu saw Chu Huan in prison, but she could still smile so calmly, but she was amazed in her heart.
