When the footsteps came from the corridor, Liu Mo was half asleep and half awake. At first, he thought it was a dream, because apart from talking to himself, he hadn't heard any other sounds for a long time.
A jailer threw a kettle at him through the crack. The kettle is very cold, with water droplets densely covering the surface. Liu Mo held it tightly with both hands and swallowed it hungrily. Drink until you feel uncomfortable and then stop.
At this time, the sound of iron chains colliding was heard outside the cell. The door was opened, Liu Mo stretched out his hand to support the damp wall, looked up and looked out the door.
"Shopkeeper Liu, are you okay?"
The voice was surprisingly familiar, but it took Liu Mo a while to remember, "Master Wu? Why is it you?" He said weakly, "It's really you. Aren't you afraid of being implicated by me?"
"Haha, Wu is also entrusted by others." Wu Shifeng said.
"The county magistrate? Or Mr. Zheng?"
"Haha, it doesn't matter who it is. Look, I brought wine and meat. Shopkeeper Liu, please eat quickly." Wu Shifeng put a wine bag and lotus leaves wrapped with fried chicken into Liu Mo's hand.
The hungry Liu Mo directly grabbed the fried chicken, stuffed it into his mouth and ate it. "Master Wu, my wife, they..."
"Lin Shiqi and Yuan'er are both fine, but Xin'er..." Wu Shifeng said, "Shopkeeper Liu, you should be more worried about yourself. You must know that you are in big trouble this time, right?"
"What kind of crime will it be? Is it possible that the county magistrate will kill me?" As he said that, Liu Mo took the wine bottle and took a big sip.
It's beer!
At this moment, I am drinking the beer-fried chicken I developed, and the taste is beyond words.
"It's not a capital crime," Wu Shifeng stroked his short beard, "but robbing someone else's fiancée, intentionally hurting someone, and harboring an unmarried criminal. These are enough to keep you in jail for several years!"
"Another crime of harboring unmarried criminals?"
"Did Shopkeeper Liu forget Xiang Wu? Your uncle." Wu Shifeng said.
"I have arranged a marriage for him."
"Oh? Where's the engagement?"
It's just verbal...Liu Mo wanted to say.
Not long ago, he personally acted as a 'matchmaker' to help Xiang Wu decide on a marriage, but he had not yet had time to formally appoint someone and sign a marriage contract.
"You asked Zhao Da to bribe local officials with silver taels in 'Xiang Yuan Village' and take away Xiang Wu. They also found out." Wu Shifeng continued:
"Shopkeeper Liu, you are too careless. How could you leave so many clues to them?"
Hearing this, Liu Mo suddenly realized.
"Liu Mo, Liu Mo, you are just an ordinary person on earth who has traveled through time. You have read Machiavellian novels, and it is completely different from actually playing Game of Thrones."
Details, so many details, I ignored.
In the Game of Thrones, if you don't win, you will die.
Li Guangrun, you taught me a lesson!
"Hey," Wu Shifeng sighed, "Now that things have happened, there is still a way to go."
"Appreciate further details!"
Wu Shifeng looked serious, "divorce your wife!"
"What?"
In shock and surprise, Liu Mo quickly understood what Wu Shifeng meant.
It doesn't matter whether he forcibly marries someone else's fiancée or brings Xiang Wu back.
All Li Guangrun's methods used Xin'er as a breakthrough point.
According to Wu Shifeng's idea, as long as he betrays Xin'er, all the blame will be placed on her.
Regarding Xin'er's "betrothal" to Niu San, she pretended to be confused and said that she had deceived her.
This method can also be used to clear the relationship between Xiang Wu and Xiang Wu.
Then spend some money and settle everything.
But, can I, Liu Mo, do such a thing? Selling his wife and pushing her into a pit of fire to protect himself?
As a result, what will happen to Xin'er?
The key is the child in her belly.
"No, Xin'er has my flesh and blood."
"It's not difficult. There are rumors in Rongcheng that the child in her belly is not yours, Liu Mo!" Wu Shifeng gave the answer.
Unjustly accusing her of not being a woman? Get things done!
"If this is really the case, then it would be better to cut my throat with a knife and end it." Liu Mo was exhausted physically and mentally and his mind was dizzy due to the surge of alcohol.
If a woman in the Great Xia Dynasty was guilty of carrying her husband away from a man, the most serious crime was to be "immersed in a pig cage!" How could I possibly do that!
"Shopkeeper Liu, are you so willing to risk your life?"
"How could a man do such an unworthy thing to save his life!" He said righteously, "Mr. Wu, I regard you as a friend, but you actually come up with such an idea? I am so disappointed!"
Hearing this, Wu Shifeng was not angry but happy, "I really saw the right person!" He said, "If you agree, I, Mr. Wu, will really look down on you."
"Master Wu...were you testing me just now?
"Otherwise?" Wu Shifeng shrugged. "Shopkeeper Liu, you have been calming down in this prison for a few days. Have you thought of any countermeasures?"
"I have a few questions I want to get confirmed." Liu Mo said, "First, has Xiang Wu's marriage been bribed? Second, has Niu San and Xiner's so-called marriage contract been part of it?" Marriage certificate' out?
Third, to be honest, Xin'er is the girl arranged by the old lady of the Lin family to be my roommate. Could you please go to Linyang and find the person who bought her back then? "
"The daughter of the Zhang family has been betrothed to another family, and the engagement is now in the hands of the county magistrate. I think there is no need to go to Linyang City."
"oh?"
That's right, what's the difference between a profiteer who specializes in training girls to accompany women in a brothel, and a brothel thug who forces girls into prostitution?
If you find it, you may be able to blackmail yourself for a sum of money.
Wait, Xin'er and Niu San's engagement...
She is a peasant girl who cannot read a word.
Then most of her parents are not scholars, so naturally they cannot write.
How did this engagement come about? It can't really happen, right?
No, not possible.
If this happens, Xin'er's character will not lie to me.
The only explanation is fraud!
How to fake it...
Suddenly, Liu Mo suddenly woke up.
"Master Wu, I have a way to break the situation!"
"Oh? Tell me!"
"Master Wu still has to go to Linyang City."
"Shopkeeper Liu, let me tell you the truth, even Mrs. Zhou can't protect you!"
"Of course I know this." Liu Mo smiled, "I wonder if Mr. Wu has heard of the director of Jiangyuan Academy: Tan Guangyan?"
"How could Mr. Qin not know that I, Mr. Wu, am also a subordinate of Jiangyuan Academy?"
It turns out that Jiangyuan Academy was very famous in the Great Xia Dynasty. Linyang City was the main academy and it also had branches in other cities. Wu Shifeng studied in Jiangyuan Academy since he was a child.
"Then Master Wu, can you bring me a letter?" Liu Mo seemed to see hope.
"No need!"
"Ah?" Liu Mo was shocked.
According to his understanding, Tan Guangyan was once a good official who was as clear as water and as bright as a mirror.
Because of this, he offended the powerful people in the court, so he returned to Linyang Jiangyuan Academy to teach.
Later, peaches and plums spread all over the world, and he became the headmaster of the academy.
Could this information be the same as those "experts" and "professors" on earth? all fake?
Is Tan Guangyan also a "hypocrite" who seeks fame and fame and covets power?
"Haha, shopkeeper Liu, don't be anxious." Wu Shifeng laughed, then he leaned into Liu Mo's ear and told the truth one by one.
When Liu Mo heard this, he showed a rare smile, "That's it!"
Scared me!
"Shopkeeper Liu, I will have to wrong you for a while," Wu Shifeng said.
"It doesn't matter, they will pay back ten times the suffering today."
