Chen Hongjing still looked in disbelief, looking at the girl wearing purple clothes in front of him, Chen Zhishan, and continued: "I really appreciate Miss Zhishan speaking for me in the Yamen that day. But Miss Zhishan These words give this junior really no reason to believe you."
Chen Zhishan looked at Chen Hongjing, an old boy, and couldn't help but sigh. Then he ran to the two officers and soldiers guarding the prison. He smiled and took out a few gold coins and said: "Two officers and soldiers, you have been guarding here for so long. I'm tired. My daughter feels very distressed when she sees this. I'll treat the two soldiers as a reward for this. The two soldiers might as well go out to eat, drink and do some activities. I'll discuss something with that boy. "
The officer and soldier in purple clothes shook the few ingots of gold in his hands and said with a smile: "Okay, don't chat for too long." Just when he was about to get up and figure out where to buy wine and enjoy the dance, he was beside him. The officer and soldier in blue clothes stopped him, and the officer and soldier in blue said respectfully: "Hey, brother Hao, don't be fooled by this little girl's movie. I heard that her profession is related to the newspaper. If we go out directly, point out Maybe she will write something to frame us later, and when the adults blame us, we will really be dumb and eat coptis, and we can’t explain our suffering."
The officers and soldiers in purple heard what they said was reasonable, but they looked at the ingots of gold in their hands and wanted to hand them back before they could warm them. Naturally, they were unwilling in every possible way. And it happened that this action was seen by the officers and soldiers in blue.
The officer and soldier in blue rolled his eyes again, and said with a respectful smile: "Brother Hao, it's not like we can't collect money from this little girl's movie. You see, we collected her money, and then we are still here. Sit down, isn't that kid from the mountain? Let them draw a barrier and talk among themselves. If something happens, we are from the mountain, not from the mountain, and we can't be blamed. Maybe we By pretending to be injured, you can get more money to recuperate our injuries, don't you think so, Brother Hao?"
The purple-clothed officer and soldier named Brother Hao then smiled and said: "I have thought of this a long time ago. I just want to test you. Come on, come on, I will give you this ingot of gold." Brother Hao took one of the ingots Gold was thrown into the air.
The officers and soldiers in blue smiled and caught it with both hands, nodded and bowed quickly and said: "Thank you, Brother Hao, thank you, Brother Hao. Brother Hao, don't worry, I will take her back in person later. It doesn't matter whether she can break the barrier or not by then. It's our business, even if something happens, I will lead the way and it has nothing to do with Brother Hao." After saying that, the officers and soldiers in blue bent down lower and raised their hands higher.
After hearing the last words of the blue officer and soldier, Brother Hao laughed even crazier when he saw his actions. I put a few more ingots of gold in the hands of the officers and soldiers in blue. It doesn't matter if I make less, I'm afraid you are not greedy.
Brother Hao turned to Chen Zhishan and said: "Hey, little girl, you have heard it. I have given you the opportunity. As for whether you will create the barrier, that is none of my business. And you , just stand next to them and watch them come back after chatting. If they have any other actions besides chatting, report it to me immediately."
The officers and soldiers in blue nodded in agreement, while Chen Zhishan, who was standing by, cupped his fists and said, "Thank you very much, two officers and soldiers."
The officers and soldiers in blue led Chen Zhishan back to Chen Hongjing's cell, and casually returned all the gold that he had just rewarded from Brother Hao to Chen Zhishan. The stingy look on his brows was gone and replaced with a solemn look. , said softly: "Miss Chen can only help you get these back. It stands to reason that no matter who is on the mountain or who is at the bottom, as long as there is an officer and soldier watching, even if you open the barrier and trade some things that shouldn't be traded, , our government also has corresponding methods to know. So there is no need for Ms. Chen to waste this money on these people. Instead of giving money to these people, it is better to take care of the people in poor areas."
"That's it for now. I'll take a few steps back so as not to disturb your chat. But again, no matter whether you open a barrier or not, as long as you do something beyond chatting, our government will naturally find out. 2. Come on, please do as you please."
After the officers and soldiers in blue finished speaking, they walked a few steps away, crossed their arms, and leaned against the wall.
As soon as Chen Zhishan stretched out her hand, a barrier enveloped her and Chen Hongjing. She looked at the officers and soldiers in blue who were leaning against the wall, and then at Chen Hongjing who was sitting cross-legged, and said deliberately: "It turns out that the officers and soldiers in blue are the men of Mr. Ye Qingquan, and the officers and soldiers in purple are the men of Mr. Meng. I thought this place Only Ye Qingquan, the parent officer, is innocent, but everyone knows that the same is true for the people under the leadership of the parent officer. The upper beam is not straight and the lower beam is crooked. On the contrary, if the upper beam is straightened, the lower beam will also be straightened."
Sure enough, Chen Hongjing also looked at the officers and soldiers in blue.
"If it were me alone, you really shouldn't believe me. But if I say that your teacher from Licorice Hall and Mr. Ye Qingquan are also involved in this plan, what you said to me at this time is not right. How much more trust does it add?"
Chen Hongkong nodded and said with a smile: "If you had told them earlier that they were involved, I wouldn't have doubted you for so long, Miss Chen."
Chen Zhishan sighed and said, "Hey, I thought we both had the same surname as Chen. We were the same family five hundred years ago. Even if we didn't trust you completely, we would probably trust you 70% to 80%. I didn't expect you would question me twice."
Chen Hongjing suddenly looked at Chen Zhishan like a fool, no, girl, I have only met you twice, and we just chatted for the first time. Just because your surname is Chen, I have to believe you. 70% to 80%, there's something wrong with you, or there's something wrong with me.
"Okay, okay, I'm just teasing you. Next, I have to talk to you about business." Chen Zhishan sighed in his heart. Has this old kid really lost all the innocence and innocence that children have?

In an inn in Sudou Town, Mao Qi looked at the news from Xu Huixin, frowned, took a sip of tea and said, "The progress on our side needs to be faster. There have been changes on their side. .”
Fan Xiaoxi threw the quick report he had just bought on the table: "Aside from Mu's execution ten days later, are there any changes?"
Mao Qi said helplessly: "They didn't make it clear what they were going to do. They just said they were going to do something big. Let us finish the investigation and go back early. Your Licorice Hall really wants to do something."
Fan Xiaoxi and Gao Zhuli waved their hands and said nothing. The younger generation did not interrupt the quarrel between the older generation.
——
In the prison, Chen Zhishan removed the barrier and said to Chen Hongjing with a smile: "Leave the rest to us, just practice hard."
Chen Hongjing stood up, clasped his fists and said, "Then I would like to thank Miss Chen here first, and I would also like to ask Miss Chen and my senior brothers and sisters to tell the teachers that everything is fine with me."
Chen Zhishan nodded, came to the officers and soldiers in blue, and said with a smile: "Now that I have finished speaking, Captain Hou can take me out. Zhishan will bear in mind what Captain Hou said today."
The waiter was stunned for a moment, then nodded and walked out with Chen Zhishan. He didn't know how Chen Zhishan knew his surname was Hou, and he didn't care. As long as you don't cause him any trouble.
Chen Hongjing sat cross-legged. He originally wanted to practice, but when he thought of what Hong Zhishun said to him, Chen Hongjing started to think. After a while, he said in his heart: "Brother, when it comes to the question of whether everyone's nature is good or evil, I don't know for the time being whether human nature has more good or more evil. But I want to tell senior brother, as long as you are a human being, your heart They all have good and evil sides.”
"But the environment is different, and everyone's situation is different, so everyone's good and evil are the same. As long as one thing happens, there will always be different voices, but why are there always more evil voices than good voices? . I wonder if it is because of the hardship of the people at the bottom, so they naturally sympathize with people who are in a similar situation to themselves."
"And Maku-senpai's incident is a good example. We can win, and we can also prove that you were on the wrong path before."
Chen Hongjing did not hear Hong Zhishun's reply, but he knew that Hong Zhishun must have heard what he said.
——
There were still eight days before Maku was sent to the execution platform to be beheaded.
"Hey, speaking of which, my old mother's illness was also cured by Mu in the past."
"Hey, that's not what you said before. You're going to kill me with one blow. You were a bully in the world back then, and you were still the kind of vicious person in the world."
"Hey, I didn't hear my old mother say it at that time. No, as soon as the emergency report came out yesterday, I went home and asked my old mother, and my old mother also told me. And I heard that my old mother My mother said that not only did he receive free medical treatment in the past, but he also spent his own money to buy medicine for my old mother."
"I've heard about this too. I heard my lame second uncle say that Mu helped him pick up the things he spilled on the ground and helped carry my second uncle home. The most shocking thing for you is Do you know what it is? He actually helped my second uncle with acupuncture treatment. My second uncle’s leg was lame quite badly at first, but now it’s much better.”
"Oh, according to what you say, we shouted one life for one life in front of the government that day, wasn't it a bit too much?"
"Yeah, it does feel a bit too much. We adults have to work again, and we usually don't pay attention to these things. We are already bored when we go home after working all day, so how can we have the time to listen to the old man telling us such things? So it’s normal that we don’t know the true character of this person in the past year,” said an old man.
"However, we don't know the character of the person who heads the medicine. The old man in the family was deceived into buying fake medicine. Didn't we only know about it after Mu was arrested in the past year. If it hadn't been for Mu in the past year, we wouldn't have known about it. Do you know how much money the elderly people in your family have been defrauded of?" said a young man.
The discussion that was lively just now suddenly became quiet. Chen Zhishan, who was sitting on the second floor of the inn, looked out the window. This was her plan. The old man was Uncle De, and the other boy was Yan Ling in disguise. She went to the cell just to ask Chen Hongjing about the story she had told him in the past.
As for why Chen Zhishan was so sure that Mu would tell Chen Hongjing the little things he had helped people in the past years, was it because Mu wanted to remember the good deeds he had done in the past and accumulate merit for himself?
No, it's because Chen Hongjing is the same person as him, the same person who accidentally lost a life in order to save a life. In order not to let Chen Hongjing's kindness die, Mu Xi could only tell him these things to make him believe that he was right to save Uncle Li, so that no matter how great the risk was in the future, he would not be afraid of being blackmailed and save people first.
Chen Zhishan picked up the tea cup, blew on the tea, and slowly sipped it. People sympathize with people who are similar to themselves, and they care more about those who have taken care of their relatives and friends. The first is that you owe others a favor, which is secondary. The most important thing is the second point. If someone cares about his relatives and friends, if something happens to him in the future, that person will probably take care of him.
Although it may not all be sincere, at least everyone is in the same boat. Chen Zhishan put down the teacup and looked into the distance. Next, let this story of helping more people in the past spread throughout the entire Buxing Kingdom, and even the entire Dayuan Dynasty.
