Dafeng Jingzhao mansion, prison.

Xu Qi'an wakes up, smelling the humid smell of putrefaction in the air, causing slight discomfort and stomach acid.

What's wrong with the smell? Erha in the family is running to the bed to shit again...

according to the degree of smoking, I'm afraid it's not on my head...

Xu Qi'an's family has a dog, husky, commonly known as erha.

I've been drifting North for ten years. I'm lonely. I've been lonely for a long time. It's hard to avoid that I want to have a dog for comfort and Recreation... Not physically.

He opened his eyes and looked around. Xu Qi'an was confused.

The stone walls and three big square windows made him lie on the cold and shabby straw mat. The sunlight shines on his chest through the square windows, and the dust floats in the light beam.

Where am I?

Xu Qian pondered for a moment in the confusion of doubting life, and then he really doubted life.

I went through the....

the memory surged in, and didn't give him the chance to react at all. It was inserted into the brain and flowed quickly.

Xu Qi'an, also known as Ningyan, was a Constable of Changle County Government under the jurisdiction of Jingzhao government. The monthly salary is two liang silver and one stone rice.

His father was an old soldier and died in the "battle of mountains and seas" 19 years ago. Later, his mother died of illness. Thinking of this, Xu Qi'an was a little relieved.

As we all know, people whose parents died are not simple.

"Didn't expect to live hard, or can't escape when the police fate?" Xu Qi'an has a toothache.

In his previous life, he graduated from the police academy, successfully entered the system and won the golden rice bowl.

However, although Xu Qian took the path his parents chose for him, his heart was not in the career of public servant.

Ji Manran likes to quit in a free diary, and he likes to be in a free business.

"But why am I in prison?"

He tried to digest his memory and soon understood his situation.

Xu Qi'an was raised by his second uncle when he was young. Because he practiced martial arts all the year round, he had to eat more than 100 taels of silver every year, so he was disliked by his aunt.

At the age of 18, when he reached the peak of refining, he stagnated. Under the pressure of his aunt, he moved out of Xu's house and lived alone.

Through my uncle's relationship, I got a job as a constable in the Yamen. Originally, I had a good life. Who would have thought that three days ago, the second uncle Qipin green robe, who was working in the imperial sword guard, escorted a batch of tax money to the account department. There was an accident on the way, and the tax money was lost.

One hundred and fifty thousand taels of silver.

The government and the public were shocked, and the emperor was furious. He personally ordered that Xu Pingzhi be beheaded five days later. The relatives of the three ethnic groups sat together. The men were sent to the frontier, and the women were sent to the Department of Jiaofang.

As Xu Pingzhi's nephew, he was dismissed from the post of constable and sent to jingzhaofu prison.

Two days!

In another two days, he will be exiled to the desolate frontier and spend the rest of his life in the toil.

"The beginning is hell mode..." Xu Qi'an's back is cold, and his heart is half cold.

The world is under the rule of feudal dynasty, where is the border without human rights?

It's desolate and the climate is harsh. Most of the prisoners assigned to the border can't live more than ten years. And more people, not to the border, because of all kinds of accidents, diseases, died on the way.

Thinking of this, Xu Qi'an's scalp exploded, chilly.

"System?"

After a moment's silence, Xu Qi'an's sound of exploration rang out in the silent prison.

The system ignored him.

"System... System dad, come out." Xu Qi'an's voice was urgent.

Silence.

No system, no system!

This means that he can hardly change the status quo. Two days later, he will be sent to the border in shackles and shackles. With his physique, he should not die on the way.

But it's not a good thing. In my life as a tool man, I was squeezed by the labor force and finally died...

it's terrible, it's terrible!

Xu Qian had nothing but anxieties and fears about the beautiful illusion of crossing the ancient thing, like a bubble.

"I have to find a way to save myself. I can't just take the dog with me."

Xu Qi'an paced around in the small prison, like an ant on a hot pot, like a wild animal falling into a trap, thinking hard about countermeasures.

I'm at the peak of refining. I'm physically strong and frightening... But in this world, I belong to indomitable silver. It's impossible to escape from prison...

by clan and friends?

The Xu family is not a big family. The people are scattered all over the country, and 150000 taels of tax money have been robbed. Who dares to plead at this juncture?

According to the law of Dafeng, if you make up for your mistakes, you will be exempted from capital punishment!

Unless the silver is recovered....

Xu Qi'an's eyes suddenly light up, like a drowning man grabbing the straw.He graduated from a serious police school with rich theoretical knowledge, clear logic, strong reasoning ability, and has read numerous cases.

Maybe we can try to start with solving cases, recover money and make contributions.

But then, the light in his eyes was dim.

If you want to solve a case, you should first look at the file and understand the details of the case. After that, we will investigate and solve the case.

Now he's in prison, and he'll be sent to the border two days later!

No solution!

Xu Qi'an sat down on the ground, his eyes lost.

He was drunk in the bar yesterday, and he woke up in prison. Maybe he died of alcoholism.

God thought it was too easy for him to live again, didn't he?

In ancient times, distribution was second only to death penalty.

Although I was beaten by the society in my last life, I lived in a peaceful and prosperous age. You said how good it was to be reborn. Without saying a word, I went to buy a house after stealing my parents' savings.

Then cooperate with mom, break the hand of my father who loves to speculate in stocks, so that he can't be a leek.

At this time, at the end of the dark corridor came the sound of the chain, which should be the door opened.

Then came the sound of footsteps.

A gaoler led a gaunt scholar to stop in front of Xu Qi'an's prison door.

The gaoler looked at the scholar: "half a column of incense time."

The scholar bows to the jailer. After seeing him leave, he turns to face Xu Qi'an.

The scholar was dressed in a white robe, and his long black hair was tied on the jade hairpin. He was very handsome. His sword eyebrows were starry and his lips were very thin.

Xu Qi'an's memory of this person comes to mind.

Xu Erlang's new year.

Second uncle's son, Xu Qi'an's cousin, was elected in autumn this year.

Xu Xinnian looked at him calmly: "the taxi driver who escorted you to the border collected 300 liang from me. This is the only silver left in our family. You can go safely. There will be no accident on the way."

"And you?" Xu Qi'an said this sentence, he remembered that the relationship between the original master and his cousin was not good.

Because his aunt hated his relationship, except for the second uncle, other people in the Xu family didn't like him very much. At least cousins don't show too close to him.

In addition, in the memory of the original owner, this cousin is a strong king who is good at spitting fragrance.

Xu Xinnian impatiently said: "I have been removed from my official position, but I am protected by the teachers of the Academy. I don't need to be assigned. Take care of yourself. If you go to the border, you can live for a year. "

Xu Xinnian studied in the famous Bailu Academy in Kyoto, and he was also a new comer. Therefore, after the second uncle's accident, he was not sent to prison, but he was not allowed to leave Kyoto. He has been running around for many days.

Xu Qi'an is silent. He doesn't think that Xu's new year will be better than himself. I'm afraid that he will not only get rid of his fame, but also get into a humble family. His children and grandchildren will not be allowed to take the imperial examination and turn over.

In addition, two days later, the family members of the Xu family will be sent to the Department of Jiaofang and humiliated.

Xu Xinnian is a scholar. How can he survive in Beijing? Maybe it is a better choice to be distributed to the frontier.

Xu Qi'an's heart moved. He took a few steps forward and clasped the iron fence with both hands: "do you want to commit suicide?"

Uncontrollable, heart filled with sadness... I clearly do not know him.

Xu new year's face expressionless brush sleeve way: "with you what to do."

After a pause, his eyes moved slightly down a few inches, not looking at his cousin, and his look turned to soft: "live."

Then I will leave him!

"Wait!" Xu Qi'an reaches out to the fence and grabs his sleeve.

Xu Xinnian pauses and looks at him in silence.

"Can you get the file? The lost tax money case file. "
