Chapter two hundred and sixty second prison visit

Hu Yingyu was very nervous when facing Zhu Yuning, and her little face turned a little white. Although she knew that Zhu Yuning had good intentions to bring her into the palace, she was still worried that Zhu Yuning would be angry because of the engagement between her and Li Jie.

But at this moment, Hu Xueqing next to her suddenly held Zhu Yuning's arm and smiled: "Sister, don't scare others. My brother-in-law will give you peace of mind, but if you trust you, you will not be able to make a job with your brother-in-law if you scare me."

"Who wants to report to him!" Zhu Yuning's face turned slightly red by Zhu Xueqing's words, but it also eased the atmosphere. So she turned her head and said to Hu Yingyu again, "Since you have entered the palace, you are my person. I will call you Yingyu in the future!"

"Yes!" Hu Yingyu also replied in a low voice.

"Can you write?" Zhu Yuning asked again.

"Yes!" Hu Yingyu nodded and replied.

"Write one for me to see!" Zhu Yuning waved to her at this time, and pointed to the Bi Mo in front of her and said, yesterday she picked up Hu Yingyu into the palace, and she only met her in a hurry, and today she was officially recognized.

Hu Yingyu stepped forward, wrote down his name after thinking for a moment, and then put down the brush with a slightly red face.

Zhu Yuning looked at Hu Yingyu's calligraphy and nodded with satisfaction and said, "The handwriting is good. You can see that you have worked hard in calligraphy and are much better than Li Jie. Please help us copy these manuscripts of Li Jie later!"

"Sister, I think any person's handwriting is better than brother-in-law!" Zhu Xueqing next to her interrupted again, which made Zhu Yuning laugh.

Hu Yingyu didn't understand what they were laughing at, but when Zhu Yuning and Zhu Xueqing handed over the manuscripts they had finished reading to her to copy them one by one, she suddenly realized that Brother Li Shi, who looked elegant, had written his handwriting crookedly, which was a bit terrible.

In the next few days, Hu Yingyu also followed Zhu Yuning every day. She found that Zhu Yuning's life was very regular, and she spent most of her time reading and writing. Zhu Xueqing also came here most of the time. There was also a princess Zhu Yuqing, who was Zhu Yuning's own sister. However, Zhu Xueqing and Zhu Yuqing seemed to be a little disagreement. After meeting, he often quarreled, and Zhu Yuqing often suffered a loss. After several times, Zhu Yuqing didn't dare to come.

Of course, Hu Yingyu sometimes feels the discomfort caused by the gap in identity. After all, she was a young lady who was not touching the water in the past, but now she has become someone else's maid. Even if the other party is a princess, she still cannot change the fact that she is just a maid.

However, when Hu Yingyu thinks about her experience at Jiaofangsi every day, she feels very lucky. After all, even the maid is tens of thousands of times better than staying in Jiaofangsi. What's more, although Zhu Yuning was a little cold at the beginning, she still took good care of her and would not really let her do any heavy work. Only when she was reading and writing would Hu Yingyu do some trivial things like grinding ink and washing pens.

In addition, in terms of life, Zhu Yuning has never treated her badly, and is even better than Hu Yingyu's family in some aspects. In addition, Li Jie occasionally sent someone to send messages to let her know that her mother's illness had improved. Although there was no news on her father yet, Hu Yingyu slowly calmed down.

Li Jie has not been idle these days, mainly because he is moving around to inquire about news. It is thanks to the Qiuzhen Academy, because many people in the academy have official positions and have wide connections, so Li Jie can also find out a lot of useful news. In addition, he finally had the opportunity to go to the Heavenly Prison of Dali Temple to visit Hu Jiang.

That afternoon, Li Jie brought a food box into the Tianzhu. The food box contained several special dishes made by Mrs. Hu himself, all of which were Hu Jiang’s favorite food. Originally, Li Jie wanted to bring Mrs. Hu in, but places like Tianzhu were extremely strict, especially those like Hu Jiang, who were generally not allowed to visit outsiders. Li Jie was able to come in by himself, so he could not bring other people, so Mrs. Hu could only prepare some food and clothes for Li Jie to bring to Hu Jiang.

It was also the first time that Li Jie came to the Heavenly Prison in Dali Temple. The reason why it is called the Heavenly Prison is actually because the cell is mainly built on the ground, which mainly imprisons in it. The inside and outside are extremely strict. Generally speaking, even if the person who enters here is not a death sentence, he will be detained for a long time and may not even think of it for the rest of his life.

However, the situation in the prison is not as bad as Li Jie imagined. Although the prisoners here are all severely punished, a considerable number of them are former officials, even if these officials lose their power, there are still many relatives and friends outside, some still rank high in the court, and a few may even turn around in the future, so the prisoners here dare not abuse the prisoners too much.

Of course, the Heavenly Prison is also a cell after all, and the environment inside is only relatively better. Most of the prisoners inside are detained alone. Their food, drink, defecation, and sleep are all completed in a small cell, which also caused the entire cell to be stenched. Li Jie also frowned when he first came in.

However, the environment in the prison also reminded him that he would not be allowed to fall into such a place in the future.

The prison guard took Li Jie to the deepest part of the Heavenly Prison. Li Jie quickly saw Hu Jiang in a cell, but Li Jie almost recognized him at first sight. In his impression, Hu Jiang was a strong man with a burly figure, but now the one who appeared in front of him was an old man with half white hair and a big skeleton left, which was completely different from before.

"Uncle Hu! I'm here to see you!" Li Jie sighed inward when he saw Hu Jiang who was so thin that he was out of shape, and then stepped forward and said softly.

Hu Jiang, who was resting, didn't expect anyone to visit him. He opened his eyes when he heard Li Jie's voice. When he saw Li Jie in front of him, he rubbed his eyes in disbelief. Then he rushed forward excitedly, holding the fence of the cell and shouted: "Li Jie, tell me quickly, how are the madam and the others?"

"Don't worry, Uncle Hu, I rushed back in time to save my aunt and Yingyu. Now they are all very good. My aunt also cooked the dishes and prepared some clothes for me to bring!" Li Jie looked at Hu Jiang, who was crazy and answered hurriedly. It was estimated that Hu Jiang also knew that Hu Yingyu and the others were demoted to the Jiaofangsi.

Hearing that his wife and daughter were fine, Hu Jiang sat on the ground and burst into tears. He then raised his hands and laughed at the sky, "Bless God! Bless God!"

Looking at Hu Jiang who looked like a madman, Li Jie could understand his feelings. After all, even though he knew that his wife had been demoted to the Jiafangsi, he could do nothing. This torture could simply make a man crazy.

After Hu Jiang shouted and vented his excitement, he suddenly turned over and knelt down and said, "Li Jie, I, Hu Jiang, did something I am sorry for you. Thanks to your righteous help this time, I may not be able to repay you in this life. Even if I am a cow or a horse in the next life, I will repay you today's kindness!"

Hu Jiang said as he kowtowed to Li Jie solemnly, which scared Li Jie and hurriedly stepped forward to support him, but because he couldn't even help him even though he wanted to.

Fortunately, the prison guard opened the prison door at this time, and Li Jie hurriedly went in and helped Hu Jiang up. At this time, he realized that Hu Jiang was also very thin, and he was almost supported by a skeleton. He was so haggard that he was so haggard. If the conditions in the cell were poor, he would not have been like this. I am afraid that he would have suffered more psychologically.

Li Jie helped Hu Jiang to the simple bed in the prison cell and sat down, and then said again: "Uncle Hu, we don't need to mention the matter back then. I originally wanted to bring Aunt Hu together, but no one else was allowed to enter in the prison, so I could only bring some wine and food. Uncle Hu also needs to take care of himself. I have me outside, so you don't have to worry too much!"

Li Jie said as he opened the food box and took out the wine and food inside. Hu Jiang also recognized that these dishes were all from his wife's hands, which made him burst into tears even more excited. He picked up the chopsticks and started eating.

But at this moment, I suddenly heard the prisoner in the next cell saying, "Hu Jiang, if you have something delicious, don't remember to ask your old boss to taste it?"

Hearing this voice, Li Jie felt a little familiar, and immediately turned his head to look. As a result, when he saw the prisoner in the next cell, he couldn't help but sneer: "It turns out that it's Commander Mao, I'm so disrespectful!"

Li Jie didn't expect that the prisoner detained next door was Mao Xiang. Compared to Hu Jiang's haggardness, although Mao Xiang had lost weight, there was no big change in the rest. Even though he was in a cell, Mao Xiang was still neat and his hair was combed meticulously. If he had to change into his official uniform, he would still be the commander of the arrogant Jinyiwei.

Facing Li Jie's ridicule, Mao Xiang's expression was as usual. He looked at Li Jie very calmly, then bent his mouth and showed a bit of self-deprecating smile: "I haven't seen you for many days, Jing Haibo's style is still the same. Although we had some conflicts at the beginning, to be honest, you are the person I admire most in the court!"

"I dare not, I can't stand your admiration!" Li Jie immediately said when he heard this. In his opinion, it was not a good thing to admire someone like Mao Xiang.

"Yes, Mao Xiang is a sinister and vicious villain. Even if he dies, he will take us to bury him. If he has the chance, I really want to crush him with his own hands!" At this time, Hu Jiang also stared at Mao Xiang with gritted teeth and said hatred. If Mao Xiang hadn't bitten him randomly, he wouldn't have fallen to such a level.

Mao Xiang didn't care about Hu Jiang's hatred at all. He just said that just to attract Li Jie's attention. At this time, he had been staring at Li Jie for a long time, and then suddenly smiled and said, "Li Jie, don't rush to deny it. I really admire you the most. You know that you have a relationship with the royal family at a young age, become the prince's son-in-law, and lay your foundation very firmly. As long as you don't make big mistakes, you don't have to worry about being liquidated by Your Majesty."

Mao Xiang suddenly paused when he said this, then his tone changed and said again: "But I have a piece of advice here, I wonder if you want to hear it?"
