Yes, she was rescued!

"Fairy Bodhisattva! I have been a cow and a horse in this life. Thank you for your great kindness!"

"There's no need to be a cow or a horse. You still can't take the wheel."

The smoke was choking, and Zhao Surui exited the cell. Amid the jailer's pleading, he sat where the jailers usually sat - there was also a window letting in the wind.

Crossing one leg over the other, he looked at Shi Xinmei, who was standing with her back to the firelight.

The firelight outlined the woman's thin body, as if she were a dead branch burned into black charcoal in the raging fire...

"You're just living on empty wages and living without money, but you won't have people trying to kill you several times in prison."

Zhao Surui pointed a torch at Shi Xinmei:

"Speak completely, otherwise I'm afraid you will survive tonight but not tomorrow."

Shi Xinmei took two steps forward and looked at the woman with an arrogant and domineering look on her face.

The firelight illuminated her face extremely brightly, making her eyes hurt from her hair to her eyes, as if she was the source of the fire.

Shi Xinmei lowered her head:

"Fairy Bodhisattva..."

"You said you stole three baskets of charcoal and were sentenced to ten days in prison. I think you came in because someone outside wanted to kill you. But you didn't expect that the person who killed you was determined.

, how could you be stopped by a mere cell here?"

At this time, the jailer who was lying on the ground begging for mercy saw the fire getting bigger and bigger and almost burning the wooden fence, and he shouted in horror:

"Ms. Shen, please spare me, I will say anything! I took the money from the Bai family's steward! Please spare me! I don't want to be burned to death!" He tried his best to turn his arm, but the knife was lying across his face. No matter how he turned his arm, he couldn't get it out of the wooden fence.

In charge of the Bai family?

Zhao Surui made several turns in his mind, and had already thought about all the people with the surname Bai who were in the fourth rank and above in Yanjing City:

"Which Bai family?"

The jailer shouted: "It's the Bai family from Songzhi Alley!"

Songzhi Alley? What is this?

Smoke filled the air, and the prisoners in the cell were shouting "Water leakage!" and increasingly noisy sounds could be heard outside the cell.

There is also the sound of the burning flame "Bi Pei" which disturbs people's ears.

"It's the Bai family that was released from the Wu family. The Wu family is Wu Chongmin, a thousand households in the Zuoshaoying camp. My husband-in-law Sun Daqi didn't die during the Northern Expedition three years ago, but died last winter. Wu Chongmin said he wanted him to go drink. , but never came back, only saying that he drowned on the way back drunk."

Shi Xinmei stood on the same spot, her face and clothes remained unchanged, but her tone of voice was completely different from before:

"Although my mother's family is also a military household, my mother is the daughter of a widowed writer. She has taught me things that others don't like since I was a child.

You know. If cold water enters the mouth and nose of a drowned person, foam will flow out of the mouth and nose after being fished out, but this will not happen for a person whose body is thrown into the water after death."

She looked at the woman in front of her:

"Fairy Bodhisattva, my husband was silenced. He was poisoned to death and then thrown into the winter moat."

Zhao Surui narrowed his eyes:

"Do you want to seek justice for your husband?"

Shi Xinmei traced the corners of her lower lips, as if she was about to smile, but it was not a smile either:

"I am a woman, and I have to take care of my children. How can I say justice? Knowing that my husband-in-law died in a strange way, I just said I was sad and moved with my mother-in-law and children. After I moved, the Bai family used the excuse to replace the old one. The Lord came to my door from time to time in my name and secretly encouraged the Sun family to seize our property. After winter this year, they became even more vicious and asked the Sun family to drive us out of the house and cut off our livelihood. A few days ago, I met my My husband's former colleagues found out that they didn't even know that my husband was dead. My husband died in an unknown manner and was still being paid for free. After that, they simply wanted to take my life. Already."

A sharp shout came from the window with thick smoke billowing out:

"Mrs. Shen! I am serving Mr. Shen Yin. My surname is Yu. Madam Shen, are you okay? Maybe the door was opened from the inside? I will rescue you right away!"

Wu Chongmin, a thousand households in Zuoshaoying Camp...

Zhao Surui stroked his small hand stove. His palm got a few blisters when he first poured the fire on it, and now it started to hurt.

Such a low-ranking official actually kept the dignified Emperor Zhaode awake for two nights.

Damn it...
