There is a red scene deep in the heart of the cloud

The next day, Ruan Hongjing went to the Sansi yamen early, found Mr. He's account book, checked it attentively, and double-checked it carefully after checking it.

In the end, Ruan Hongjing sat slumped on the chair, wanting to die: It's over!I thought that the little magistrate would be greedy for 1 taels at most, and he could fool it when handing over the account book to the superior.But, Mr. He is really a fucking petty official who is corrupt, and has lost 5 taels!The amount of 5 taels is too large, how could it be fooled!It's all the fault of the goblins of Zhao Yuyun's family, they made me confused, my brain became muddy, and I didn't check the account beforehand, just took 5000 taels of bribe money casually, this time I'm really dead!Well, maybe ask Zhao Yuyun for help, maybe we can turn the big problem into a small one!

Ruan Hongjing went to look for Zhao Yuyun with the ledger, but was stopped by Zhao Yuyun's guards.The guard said impersonally: "Without the summoning of the third envoy, no one can approach the study of the third envoy."

Ruan Hongjing's footsteps were flimsy, and she returned to her office in a daze, lying on the table desperately waiting for the office to leave.After the office was dismissed, Ruan Hongjing hurried to Zhao Yuyun's house, who knew that the concierge said Zhao Yuyun was not at home.Ruan Hongjing said that I would go in and wait for your master to come back, but who knew that the porter closed the door with a click and ignored Ruan Hongjing at all.

Ruan Hongjing had no choice but to stand at the door and wait.After waiting for a long time, Zhao Yuyun still did not come back.Ruan Hongjing was starving to death, but the matter was too big, so she didn't dare to leave, she sat pitifully on the steps at the gate of the Zhao residence, waiting for Zhao Yuyun eagerly.

After waiting until the next morning, Ruan Hongjing still didn't see Zhao Yuyun.Ruan Hongjing gave up hope, and thought in her heart: In times of crisis, no one can be counted on.Nothing has come out yet, so let's count it from day to day.Maybe God bless, nothing happened, don't scare yourself!

After such a self-consolation, Ruan Hongjing relaxed a little, and simply did not wait for Zhao Yuyun, and returned to her own residence, washed up and had breakfast, and was ready to go to the Sansi Yamen to work.

As soon as he reached the entrance of the alley, people from the Huangcheng Division blocked Ruan Hongjing's way. Two big men grabbed Ruan Hongjing's hands, and the other two put shackles on Ruan Hongjing.

Ruan Hongjing yelled: "I am Ruan Hongjing, a sixth-rank official of the Third Division Yamen, you have arrested the wrong person!"

The leader of the arresting team was Dao Guanyun, the chief officer of the Imperial City Division. This person was always icy cold, he didn't talk harshly, and he ignored Ruan Hongjing's yelling at all.Dao Guanyun waved his hand, and the two men immediately threw Ruan Hongjing into a carriage.

Ruan Hongjing closed his eyes, two lines of hot tears flowed out of his eyes, his heart was ashamed: It's over, the Dong Chuang incident happened, waiting for Qiu Houwen to be killed.

Ruan Hongjing was locked in a small single cell. The cell was filled with a disgusting sour smell, straw was scattered in a mess, and cockroaches and mice were running up and down.

In order to wait for Zhao Yuyun, Ruan Hongjing didn't sleep all night and was very sleepy. Thinking that things were like this, and being sad was useless, she fell down on the straw to sleep.

Not long after sleeping, Ruan Hongjing was woken up by the show bite, and sat up to tickle.Ruan Hongjing stretched out her leg to move around. Just as she stretched out her leg, she suddenly felt very painful. She quickly retracted her leg. When she looked down, her left calf was bleeding.Ruan Hongjing tore off her clothes and tied her calf to stop the bleeding.

"Haha" laughter came from the cell next door, and he gloated and said, "New inmate, let the nails be pierced!"

Ruan Hongjing gave a thumbs up and praised: "Brother, you have a good heart. You have the mood to ridicule others after you have fallen into this situation! They are all troubled brothers and sisters, so it would be nice to have a companion to talk to. Next Ruan Hongjing, dare to ask how brother Taiwan is?" call?"

The inmate in the next cell smiled and said, "Little brother, my name is Rong Fengzhu. Little brother, you are so brave! You were able to fall asleep just after you were arrested, I admire you!"

Ruan Hongjing laughed at himself: "Hey! I didn't sleep all night last night, it's just that I was very sleepy."

Rong Fengzhu lowered his voice and said, "Little brother, are you also part of Lord Lian's party?"

Ruan Hongjing remembered the fight between Zhao Yuyun and Lian Guogong not long ago, and asked, "All the people locked up here belong to Lian Guogong's party? What level were you before?"

Rong Fengzhu laughed loudly, and said, "What level can I have? Can Zhao Yuyun allow leveled opponents to live to this day? Leveled people, after only being locked up here for one night, they are all pulled out and beheaded. I am An eighth-rank petty official, he was released after a few years of imprisonment. I have already bought a field in my hometown, and my life will not be too worrying after I go out. Little brother, we came in a few days ago, why did you get arrested today? ?”

Ruan Hongjing sighed, and said, "I took bribes only the day before yesterday, and today it happened."

Rong Fengzhu asked with interest: "What stupid thing did you do?"

Ruan Hongjing thought that they were all brothers and sisters, so he told the truth: "I received 5000 taels of bribes, and the other party asked me to hide the shortfall, but the other party had a shortfall of 5 taels, which is too big to hide."

Rong Fengzhu sneered, and said, "So you are from the Sansi Yamen. Before accepting bribes, didn't you check the accounts first? You just took 5000 taels from others so casually? I'm curious about you, a fool like you." How did you become an officer?"

Ruan Hongjing smiled wryly, and said: "When I was clear-headed, of course I knew to check the accounts before deciding whether to accept bribes or not, but that day my head was hot and my mind was not clear, so I did this stupid thing!"

Rong Fengzhu asked with a smile: "Did you quarrel with your little love at that time?"

Ruan Hongjing said bitterly, "That's right."

Rong Fengzhu lamented, and said: "Ask what love is in the world, and you have tossed you, a good young man, into prison. If you still have a day to turn around, you probably won't dare to like another person for the rest of your life, and you won't Dare to lose your temper with your little lover again."

Ruan Hongjing frowned, and said, "Prisoner, what time is it, don't make fun of me."

Rong Fengzhu gave advice to Ruan Hongjing: "I heard that Zhao Yuyun, the envoy of the Third Division, is ruthless externally, but he is quite defensive internally, ask your family to beg Zhao Yuyun, maybe there is still a chance of survival. "

Ruan Hongjing said: "My family is not in the capital, but I have a few friends in the capital. But I was arrested on the road. My friends didn't even know that I was in prison. And it was useless to find Zhao Yuyun. I was arrested last night. Squatting at the gate of Zhao Yuyun's house all night, it didn't stop him."

Rong Fengzhu said: "Then there is no other way. You can only resign yourself to fate. Little brother, you are self-inflicted! Although Zhao Yuyun is high and powerful, he also has his own difficulties, so don't resent Zhao Yuyun for not being willing to help. You, don't be sour, let's play chess."

Ruan Hongjing was surprised, and said: "There are still chess in the prison?"

Rong Fengzhu said: "My wife bribed the jailer to bring it in for me."

Zhao Yuyun came to visit Ruan Hongjing, and seeing Ruan Hongjing happily playing chess with his inmates, he could only shake his head and smile wryly: Xiaojing really is a very interesting person!

Zhao Yuyun took out a letter from his sleeve, asked the jailer to pass it to Ruan Hongjing, and left.

Ruan Hongjing opened the letter and only wrote "Don't Worry" and drew an auspicious cloud on the letter.

Ruan Hongjing felt at ease after reading Zhao Yuyun's letter.
