Kong Jijiu also felt that Bai Shan could not be kept absent from school. After waiting for several days, he found that the queen mother's condition had not improved at all, and the judgment of the King of Yizhou was temporarily put on hold, but the people involved in this matter began to be investigated.
And I heard that Yizhou has already begun to escort the rebel bandit leaders to Beijing.
Kong Jijiu counted, even if he left immediately, it would take about ten days to get to Beijing.
So he thought about it, and asked the school officer of Class A and Class 3 to give Bai Shan some other homework, while thinking about whether to let Bai Shan come back to school.
The main reason is that Bai Shan and the others have been released from prison for three days, and no one has troubled them.
It seems that to avoid suspicion and prevent Yushi from being caught again, even the Queen Mother didn't find fault with them.
Kong Jijiu always felt that if he always asked Bai Shan to take time off from school, it would seem that the Imperial College was afraid of the King of Yizhou.
Moreover, Bai Shan's hiding in this way will damage his reputation.
Those who hide for three to five days can still say that he has just been released from prison and need to take care of his health, but if he hides for three to five months, it will become a joke.
So Kong Jijiu planned to go around the palace, but before he had time to enter the palace, the emperor called him into the palace.
There are also important officials such as Wei Zhi and Tang Hui.
After entering the palace, it was discovered that Zhao and other aristocratic suzerains were with the queen mother, and the emperor summoned them to discuss the matter of the king of Yizhou.
There were quite a few people entering the palace this time. The Empress Dowager lay on the sickbed, dragged the emperor and cried for a long time, and some aristocratic family lords and ministers also persuaded him for a long time...
In the end, after Kong Jijiu left the palace, he said to the chief attendant, "Someone tell the school officer in Class 1, Class 3, and tell Bai Shan to come back to class."
Chang Sui asked, "Aren't you hiding?"
"Hiding away, all the private soldiers have been arrested, and people have been arrested. Your Majesty must be filial. I'm afraid this matter will not go away."
Since it was a matter of nothing, as the sufferers of Bai Shan and Zhou Man, the King of Yizhou would not take action against them no matter how jealous he was.
In order to silence the public, the Queen Mother might end up favoring them, so there is no need to hide.
At this time, Bai Shan and the others just came back from Erliu Lane. They had just received the new homework sent by the school officer, and before they had time to sigh, they turned around and received the news asking him to go back to school.
Bai Shan was puzzled, and looked at Yin He, who stood up and said, "I'll go back and ask my grandmother, but my father is not in Beijing right now, I'm afraid the news at home will be a bit late."
Bai Shan, Man Bao and others sent him out, "Then I'll leave it to you."
After seeing Yin He off, Man Bao asked, "Then shall we go to the prison tomorrow?"
After a little thought, Bai Shan nodded and said: "Go, start and end, although I don't know what happened, but since we're acting, let's do the whole thing."
Because he was thinking of going there for the last time, even though he didn't like Bapu very much in his heart, Bai Shan and Man Bao still prepared a very hearty meal for him, and of course, they also gave a portion to the female prisoner by the way.
After receiving such a generous gift, Bapu was stunned for a moment and asked, "Aren't you going to come again?"
Bai Shan nodded, sat opposite him across the cell door, nodded and said, "I'm going to school tomorrow."
Bapu looked at Manbao.
Man Bao said: "He's going to school, and I'm going to go to the pharmacy too. We thought that we met by fate, so I prepared some more delicious food for you today."
Bapu looked at the food box of the female prisoner diagonally opposite, raised his chin and asked, "There are so many people in this prison, why are we only given two?"
Bai Shan was also frank, and said directly: "I gave it to her because of sympathy. We feel that she is not worthy of death, but the law is like this, and we can't do anything. I gave it to you because you have helped us."
Bapu laughed and said, "Didn't she tell you that day that I lied to you?"
"We know," Bai Shan said with a smile, "We knew from the very beginning that you were lying to us, but no matter if you lied or not, we have to come and see you, so that people outside can have something to do."
Bapu curled his lips, "You scholars are always going around a lot."
He didn't care about it anymore, just took out the stewed chicken and tore it open, swallowed his saliva and started to eat. Sighing while eating, "I'll have to eat bran swallowed vegetables again after today."
The food in the prison was very bad. The steamed buns were mixed with bran, and a lot of rice porridge was boiled from old rice. Because it was not cleaned, it always gave off a strange smell.
Man Bao said indifferently: "Aren't you going to execute in a few days? There will be delicious food then."
Bapu choked, feeling that the stewed chicken in his mouth was a bit tasteless, he stared at Manbao with his cloudy eyes, and suddenly smiled, "Little lady hates me?"
After thinking for a while, Man Bao shook his head and said, "It's not that bad, it's just that I don't like it. The books I read before always say that everyone commits crimes for a reason, so I want to know what your reason is?"
Bapu didn't answer, but asked: "Why are you imprisoned in the sky prison? You are still in such a spacious place next door, and the family is full of high-ranking officials, right?"
Man Bao said: "My family is poor, but poor. I used to have three older brothers, and the family was afraid that they would not be able to marry a wife. Now there is one more, and they have not found a wife yet."
Bai Shan turned his head and glanced at her, then nodded to Ba Pu, affirming Man Bao's words, "Her family used to be very poor."
"Poor?" Bapu looked up and down Manbao with disbelief.
Bai Shan said without changing his face: "But she is smart. My husband liked her very much, so he accepted her as a student. My grandmother also liked her very much, so she studied with me."
Bapu then said: "That little lady is really lucky. Since she is a commoner, it is not a crime of murder. How could she be imprisoned in the sky prison and taken care of by the superior?"
"Probably because we sued the king of Yizhou and closed the eyes of many people, so we were taken care of." The other party was about to be beheaded. There is nothing wrong with such a thing. Man Bao is still more curious about him So he simply sat cross-legged across from him, and told him frankly, "You see, we have answered all your questions, and you can answer our questions too. Why did you kill someone?"
Bapu was silent for a while, then tore a piece of chicken and stuffed it into his mouth, saying: "To survive, they want to report on me, kill me, and take my life. Naturally, I can only kill them. You tell Yizhou King what?"
"It's nothing. He killed our parents and plotted against us. When we found out, we'll sue him," Man Bao said, "Is it because of stealing? If he was caught stealing, he should only be exiled. Do we kill people to avoid exile? "
"Tch," Bapu said, "It's better to beheaded than to be exiled. Being taken to the border to be a soldier, or to dig in a mine, that is life is worse than death. If I escape, I will be safe and sound, naturally. going to kill."
Man Bao sighed.
Bapu said: "Hmph, don't think I'm cruel, the people I kill are not good people."
"Isn't the family that gave you food a good person?"
Bapu was silent for a long time and said: "Her son is a deserter, what kind of a good person is he? I didn't intend to kill her at all. It was she who saw me kill her son and yelled loudly, so I killed her."
