Chapter 146: Wei County Saves People (I)
At dawn the next day, Li Yanqing and Yue Fei came back from a steaming run, and as soon as the two arrived at the door of the inn, Wang Gui rushed out in a panic, "The master is back!" ā
Li Yanqing saw that Wang Gui looked nervous, so he asked, "What's wrong?" ā
Wang Gui stepped forward and whispered a few words, Li Yanqing and Yue Fei were taken aback, and ran towards the inn together. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć ļ½ļ½ļ½ļ½
As soon as they walked to the door, a strong smell of medicine and bloody breath came to their faces, the door was not closed, and they saw the master Zhou Tong lying on the bed, naked, and a doctor was changing his dressing.
At this moment, the doctor heard footsteps, turned around and closed the door, "You wait before you come in!" ā
Li Yanqing's eyes were sharp, and at the moment when the doctor closed the door, he saw that there were at least three wounds on the master's back, all of which were black and purple, bleeding pus and blood, and he couldn't help but be secretly surprised in his heart, what happened to the master?
"Did the master say anything to you when he came back?" Li Yanqing turned around and asked Wang Gui.
Wang Gui shook his head, "The master didn't say anything, just asked if you came to Anyang, it seems that there is something to look for you, and the doctor is still invited by the innkeeper." ā
Li Yanqing could only wait anxiously in the courtyard, he secretly thought in his heart, seeing that the martial arts test was imminent, but the master hurried to the Daimyo's Mansion, it should be something big happened to the Daimyo's Mansion? It must have been Lu Junyi's accident, but even if Lu Junyi's accident has nothing to do with him, what is the master anxious to do with himself? Could it be..... Uncle Hu.
Li Yanqing suddenly had a bad feeling in his heart, Song Jiang was likely to refuse to let Uncle Hu go.
After waiting for about half an hour, the door finally opened, and the tired doctor walked out and asked, "Who is Li Yanqing?" ā
Li Yanqing hurriedly raised his hand, and the doctor said to him: "Master Zhou let you go in alone, and the others will go and prepare for martial arts." ā
"How's Master's injury?" Yue Fei asked anxiously.
"The injury is not serious, but I will be in bed for at least ten days and half a month, and I will come back tomorrow to change the dressing."
Li Yanqing pushed the door into the room, the bloody atmosphere in the room had faded a lot, only a strong smell of medicine, Zhou Tong was still lying on the bed, covered with a thick bedding.
Li Yanqing walked in front of Zhou Tong, and when he saw the master closing his eyes and pondering, he sat down on the chair next to him, not daring to disturb the master's thoughts, and after a while, Zhou Dong sighed and said: "This world is really not saved, it's good to sit at home, but it will be a disaster from the sky, Yanqing, do you know who I'm talking about?" ā
"The master is talking about Lu Junyi!"
"You're smart, just hit the mark!"
Zhou Tong smiled bitterly and said: "Before, Yan Qing came to Tangyin County to look for me, saying that his father-in-law was arrested by the government, and I hurried to the Daimyo's Mansion, only to find that the Lu family had been ruined. ā
"Why is that?" Li Yanqing asked in astonishment.
"It's unbelievable to say, when Wang Jing, the governor of Yunzhou, rounded up several Liangshan bandits, he copied a list of Liangshan bandits, including Lu Junyi, a famous man in Hebei, and Hu Sheng in Nanle Town, Wang Jing reported the list to Yang Jian, who was looting people's wealth on Jingxi Road, and Yang Jian was angry and sent people to arrest these two people."
Although it sounds a bit unbelievable, Li Yanqing is not strange, he has guessed before, sure enough, Song Jiang is forcing Lu Junyi and Uncle Hu to join the gang, and since Song Jiang knows that Hu Sheng lives in Nanle Town, it means that Hu Sheng still has contact with Song Jiang.
"Uncle Hu was also caught?"
Zhou Tong nodded, "He didn't have any preparation, how could he escape, I broke into the prison camp at night to save the two of them, but I was ambushed and hit by three arrows, but fortunately, I was strong and I was able to escape." ā
"What about Lu Junyi and Uncle Hu?" Li Yanqing asked.
"I heard Yan Qing say that the two of them have been escorted to Yunzhou, and I don't care if they are dead or alive."
Speaking of this, Zhou Tong gritted his teeth and hated: "I know that Song Jiang will save them in Yunzhou, but this person is vicious, he only does everything possible to recruit people to join the gang, but he doesn't care what happens to other people's parents, wives and children, Lu Junyi's brother and nephew were sentenced to exile and confiscated into the army." ā
"What about Uncle Hu's mother and daughter?"
"I heard that I was also arrested, I didn't know what to do with it."
Li Yanqing suddenly became a little anxious, Aunt Hu and Xiao Qing'er were actually arrested, and if they were also sentenced to exile and confiscation, the consequences would be unimaginable.
"I'll go to the Daimyo's Mansion now!"
Li Yanqing was so anxious that he got up and was about to leave.
"Wait a minute!"
Zhou Tong grabbed him, the wound was torn off, and there was a sudden sharp pain, he held back the pain, and said to Li Yanqing with difficulty: "Hu Cheng's mother and daughter are locked up in the Wei County prison camp, not in Yuancheng, don't go to the wrong place, and don't break into the prison camp, you will be caught, you have a reputation, and the consequences are too serious." ā
Li Yanqing calmed down, he nodded, "Master don't worry, I won't put myself in danger!" ā
Li Yanqing walked out of the room quickly, and Yue Fei and the three of them immediately surrounded him and asked anxiously, "What happened?" ā
"Lu Junyi had an accident, the master tried to save him but failed, and he suffered a little flesh injury, the situation should not be serious."
The three of them breathed a sigh of relief, and Li Yanqing said again: "I'm also going to the Daimyo's Mansion to help the master inquire about the news, and I'll be back in a few days." ā
Wang Gui was really worried in his heart, pulled Li Yanqing aside, and said in a low voice: "It's not easy to get into the exam, don't do stupid things!" ā
Li Yanqing knocked on his head, "You let me down when you say this, I don't know me after so many years of friendship, am I, Li Yanqing, a person who can do stupid things?" ā
He instructed Yue Fei and the three of them a few more words, and then returned to the room, cleaned up a little, and rode away from Anyang County, galloping in the direction of the Daimyo's Mansion.

Two days later, Li Yanqing arrived in Wei County, the capital of the Daimyo, and the master told him that the criminals involved in Lu Junyi's case were all imprisoned in the Wei County prison camp, so where should he start?
Li Yanqing found an inn to live in an alley opposite the county office, and when he was drinking tea at noon, he looked for an opportunity to ask the innkeeper, "I have a relative in the county jail, I want to know about his current situation, is there any way?" ā
The innkeeper gave a thumbs up and praised: "The little official is smart! Will find an inn, this kind of thing other inns really don't know what to do? I'll introduce a tooth man to the little official, and he will help you solve something. ā
The tooth man introduced by the innkeeper is a thin man in his thirties, with a small nose and small eyes, and a pair of distinctive big buckteeth, giving people a feeling of not closing his mouth.
The tooth man smiled all over his face, and introduced himself to Li Yanqing: "The villain's surname is Liu, just call me Liu San by the petty official, if there is anything in the prison camp, the villain will help you get it." ā
Li Yanqing asked: "Lu Junyi's family is imprisoned in the Wei County Prison City Camp!" ā
Liu San's face changed, and he lowered his voice and said, "Who is the little official from the Lu family?" This is a big case, if you just ask, it's okay, but don't think about saving people. ā
"I'll just ask, in fact, I want to ask about Hu Sheng's family."
Liu San stretched out five fingers, "Five dollars, I can arrange for small officials to visit the camp, and I want to ask about the situation for free." ā
Li Yanqing took out an ingot of five taels of silver and said with a smile: "You go and arrange it!" and the minots shall be yours. ā
Liu San's eyes lit up, he didn't say a word, and immediately got up and left.
Half an hour later, Liu San found Li Yanqing again, "I have arranged to visit the camp, if you want to go, you will go with me now, but the petty official came a day late, the Lu family had been escorted to Yongzhou yesterday, and Hu Sheng's family was still there, because the old lady was about to die, so it was handled separately." ā
Li Yanqing just breathed a sigh of relief, but was heartbroken by Liu San's last sentence, Aunt Hu is dying, what about Qing'er?
He bought a little food, and followed Liu San to the prison city camp, the prison city camp is the prison, the Great Song Dynasty is managed by the army, but not every county has a prison city camp, the Daimyo's Mansion has a total of two prison city camps, one is in Yuancheng County, and the other is in Wei County.
The prison camp in Wei County is located in the east city, and is divided into a men's camp and a women's camp, the women's camp is in slightly better condition, but it is also dark and damp, and the dungeon is filled with a foul smell.
A prisoner took Li Yanqing to a cell and shouted viciously: "Old Lady Hu, someone has come to see you." ā
A faint oil lamp in the cell, the light was very dim, Li Yanqing still recognized Aunt Hu lying in the corner at a glance, only to see that she was skinny, her eyes were staring blankly at the dark roof, her body was obviously collapsed, and she snuggled up to a little lady in her arms, although she couldn't see clearly, but it should be Qing'er.
Li Yanqing stuffed a piece of broken silver into the prison, "I want to go in and talk to them!" ā
The prisoner shook the money, 'Whoa! With a thud he opened the door of the cell.
Li Yanqing walked into the cell quickly, and the little lady was so frightened that she hurriedly drilled into her grandmother's arms, "Grandmother, someone has come in." ā
"It's a ghost.... I'm here! "Aunt Hu's breath is very weak, and she is dying.
Li Yanqing's nose was a little sour, so he squatted down and said, "Doesn't my aunt know me?" I'm Qing'er from Li Wen Village! ā
"You're a life-reemer, spare me...."Aunt Hu looked at Li Yanqing with extreme fear and screamed sharply.
Aunt Hu suddenly straightened up, her whole body convulsed, foaming at the mouth, Xiaoqing was so frightened that she threw herself on Zu Niang and cried.
The prison outside said: "Little official, it's useless, this old woman lost her mind and went crazy not long after she came in, she said that she killed too many people when she was young, and the enemy turned into a ghost to ask for her life." ā
Li Yanqing watched silently for a moment, the fear in Aunt Hu's eyes made him frightened, he had to shake his head, turned around and left, he just walked to the door, and suddenly there was a low shout from Aunt Hu behind him: "Qing'er!" ā
Li Yanqing turned around suddenly and squatted in front of Aunt Hu, "Auntie, I'm Qing'er, do you remember?" ā
Aunt Hu read a few words, a strange light suddenly flashed in her eyes, she sat up, grabbed Li Yanqing, and asked in a hoarse voice: "Are you.... Qing'er? ā
