Seeing that the city gate was closed, Mr. Liu hurried forward and talked with the soldiers guarding the city gate for a long time before getting permission to let them enter the city.
In Yazhou City, vendors gathered on the street, pedestrians were everywhere, and the sound of hawking was endless. It didn't look like a place where prisoners were exiled at all.
Facing the appearance of Xi Jin and his group of prisoners, the people in the city did not show any strange expressions, as if they were used to it.
"You all, just live a good life in this Yazhou city. Although the life is a bit harder, it is better than losing your life. If you work hard here, you may be able to get rid of your crime one day."
Mr. Liu didn't talk much along the way, but now that he was about to finish the job, he was so happy that he couldn't help but say a few more words.
"Thank you, Mr. Liu." Everyone felt a glimmer of hope in their hearts after hearing Mr. Liu's words of "getting rid of the crime."
Mr. Liu was obviously familiar with this place, and he soon led a group of people to a place similar to a school ground.
"Let's wait here until the person in charge of your whereabouts arrives. You must remember to behave well."
"Yes, thank you Mr. Liu for reminding me!" Everyone was very energetic, tidying up their appearance, trying to leave a good impression on the chief registrar and get a good place to serve.
Xi Jin came close to Xie Luo's ear and whispered softly: "I still have a lot of silver on hand. You can take it later to find a good job."
Lord Liu took good care of them all the way and hardly used any money.
The one thousand taels of silver given by the old lady before Xi Jin's departure has not been touched.
She is accompanying a family member and does not need to perform hard labor. If all the money is spent on Xie Luo, she should be able to find a good job.
Xie Luo looked at Xi Jin and his eyes moved slightly: "Jin'er, I know you are thinking about me, but I still want to go to the military."
"Those are low-level laborers. Whenever there is a war, they rush to the front as a shield." Xi Jin held his hand tightly, her clear eyes filled with tears.
Shangguan Ba was serving in the army at the beginning, and she didn't want Xie Luo to follow his old path and lose his life.
"Jin'er, I promised you that I would earn a future for you." Xie Luo's eyes were firm and he had no intention of changing his mind.
Before Xi Jin could say anything more, the chief registrar came.
The chief clerk is a lean, middle-aged man with a beard and slender eyes that reveal a trace of luster.
"Kowtow to the Lord Registrar." Everyone knelt down and kowtowed.
The Chief Registrar nodded with satisfaction: "Mr. Liu, the prisoners were escorted well this time, and everyone arrived quite well."
"Thank you, Lord Registrar, for the compliment." Lord Liu was also very happy.
Although there were many twists and turns along the way, with the help of the Xieluo couple, no one was injured or injured, which is considered a miracle.
"Everyone obeys my order and is divided into two teams, men and women. The men stay and the women follow me." The chief clerk stroked his beard and looked at the women in the crowd.
"Master Registrar, there were no such rules in the past!" Master Liu stepped forward and said with a smile.
"Master Liu, this is none of your business." The chief clerk raised his eyebrows and whispered in Master Liu's ear, "The new guy above wants to have some fun, so you can leave it alone."
Mr. Liu looked at the prisoners, his heart felt inexplicably heavy.
He wanted to help, but in this world of Yazhou, he was just a little ant. How could he dare to disobey his superiors?
"Lord Registrar, I won't say anything else, but this Mu Xijin is not a prisoner. Can she..."
"Master Liu, why don't you understand what I mean? When you come to Yazhou, you have to listen to the governor. The new guy here is a relative of the governor. Can you afford to offend him?"
"I..." Mr. Liu wanted to say something more, but when he thought of his identity, he stopped saying anything, but his face was a little gloomy and ugly.
Mu Xijing saved her more than once, but I didn't have the courage to save her. I was really ashamed!
"Okay, okay, you're talking about that girl, right?" Looking at the old friendship, the chief clerk also softened his voice, "Look at her dark little face, the one above you doesn't like her, so you just Do not worry!"
"Wait for me here and I'll buy you a drink later." The chief clerk patted Mr. Liu on the shoulder and ordered the officers to take the female prisoner to another place.
"Jin'er, if anything happens, just call me." Xie Luo is new here and is not very clear about the rules here, so he can only act according to circumstances.
"Don't worry." Xi Jin wiped something off his face to make himself look even dirtier, "I'm so ugly, nothing will happen to me."
Xi Jin and a group of female relatives came to the room in the center of the school ground.
The room was very deep, and when I heard movement, a fat-headed man with big ears came out from behind the curtain.
The man's eyes were black and blue, it was obvious that he had overindulged in sexual activities and stayed up all night without sleeping well.
"Master Deng, you did a good job this time!" The fat man patted Chief Deng on the shoulder, looked at the group of female relatives with lewd eyes, and nodded with satisfaction.
Chief Deng nodded and bowed: "Thank you, Lord Feng, for the compliment. These prisoners are all from Beijing. I guarantee your satisfaction."
"Then I'm going to pick a fight?" Mr. Feng touched his chin, and his yellow eyes began to wander.
"Lift your heads up. It will be your blessing to be recognized by Lord Feng." Chief Deng raised his voice and said.
After listening to the conversation between the two adults, the female relatives naturally understood the purpose of Chief Deng bringing them here.
People who heard this had different thoughts in their minds. Some thought they were already prisoners anyway, so they might as well cling to the local magistrate, while others were panicked and wanted to escape.
"Sister Jin..." Lan'er stood next to Xi Jin, her voice trembling with fear, "I don't want to..."
"Why are you pretending to be noble?" Lin Churou stood next to Lan'er and said with a look of disgust, "Do you still want to do those hard jobs?"
"I would rather do hard work." Lan'er argued in a low voice.
"Don't be afraid." Xi Jin reached out and patted Lan'er on the shoulder, already having a plan in mind.
Lord Feng looked at them one by one with a wretched look. When he saw the good-looking ones, he ordered them to stay, while the ones who were not attractive were kicked out to do hard labor.
When Master Feng walked up to Lin Churou, his eyes shone brightly: "Hey, is this a yellow-flowered girl?"
"You haven't reported your name yet," Chief Deng said loudly.
"The sinful girl Lin Churou has met Master Feng." Lin Churou bowed gracefully, her eyes filled with affection.
"Chu Rou, what a good name, what a good name." Mr. Feng nodded with satisfaction, "Take her to the backyard and serve her quickly."
"Thank you, Master Feng." Lin Churou bowed and proudly followed the servant to the backyard.
Anyway, she was already broken, and she didn't want to serve anyone. At least she could eat and drink well with Master Feng, but she didn't want to do hard work.
Master Feng looked at Lin Churou's understanding of the situation with satisfaction, and couldn't help but feel itchy in his heart, wishing he could do something with her immediately.
Seeing that Lord Defeng was about to walk up to Lan'er. Xi Jin picked up a silver needle at the tip of his finger and pierced Lan'er's lower back.
Lan'er instantly collapsed on the ground, unconscious...
Master Feng looked at Lan'er falling to the ground in disgrace, with disgust on his face: "What a rag, drag him out quickly."
"Yes, yes, yes." Chief Deng quickly called someone and dragged Lan'er out, "Take her down quickly!"
Master Feng then walked up to Xi Jin and said with interest: "Raise your head!"
