"Master Xu, your family is here to see you.

Tianlao, Room No. 24.

In the dark and gloomy cell, a dirty figure huddled in the corner, sleeping soundly on a pile of wheat straw.

Footsteps approaching from far away.

The prisoner opened his eyes.

His eyes were bloodshot and he looked unwilling.

After being reborn in this life, Xu Xing felt that he was mediocre in the first half of his life and had not done anything earth-shattering. However, thanks to his having attended university in his previous life and receiving higher education, his attainments in arithmetic were pretty good.

So he created a simpler way to write numbers, and also introduced mathematical inventions such as calculus...

Two years ago, he was selected as the Dian Mangcheng of Taipu Temple after passing the examination of the Ministry of Rites of Shangshu Province, and was in charge of the collection of miscellaneous livestock handed over by the pastoral supervisors.

Dian Mucheng is an eighth-rank junior official of Fengxi Kingdom.

An eighth-grade official is already quite good, but in Xu Xing's previous life, Zhou Gongzi and others could not be called luxurious young men in front of him.

However, seven days ago, Emperor Chongming had a sudden whim and personally drove to Taipu Temple to inspect. However, the nearly three hundred years of the dynasty had long been difficult to return. There were too many horses in Taipu Temple, and Emperor Chongming questioned him...

As a result, Xu Xing, a powerless and humble official, was pushed out by Han Sui, the chief official of Taipu Temple, to take the blame.

"Tai Pu, one of the nine ministers in the court, holds a high position. Han Sui has always been close to the senior officials of the Three Laws Department. He also has a daughter who married the emperor as his concubine. She is the head of the state of Emperor Chongming. Even though I am backbiting him now, I’m afraid he’ll be fine too…”

"On the contrary, if I admit this crime and behave myself, Han Sui will take people's words into consideration and maybe he will take more care of my family.

Xu Xing sighed and gradually accepted his fate.

Born in such a feudal dynasty, it is too difficult for one person to go against the will of heaven.

The slightest mistake would be a disaster.

If he were alone, he might still be able to fight hard, but Kansai Road's parents are still alive, so if this affects his family, it will be his fault.

The footsteps are getting closer.

The first person who appeared in front of Xu Xing was an old jailer wearing a white bamboo hat with the word "prison" patched on his chest.

The old jailer's surname was Li, who was in charge of delivering food to the Tianlao. No one knew his specific name. The prisoners in the Tianlao all called him "Old Li Tou".

"Old Li..."

When Xu Xing followed the local customs, he also called him "Old Li".

After shouting, he carefully raised his feet and moved step by step to the iron fence near the corridor.

The iron chains at his feet rattled.

The shackles weighing several dozen kilograms are extremely heavy.

If you walk in a hurry and don't pay attention, you will trip over it.

Xu Xing had been in Tianlao for some time. His body was weak and he was out of breath after taking only a few steps.

"Lao Li, my family is still in Guanxi Road. She is not my biological child... I guess she admitted her mistake."

Beside the iron fence, Xu Xing saw that the person visiting his relatives was a young girl. He looked disappointed for a moment, shook his head and said.

Xu's family was from a poor family. His mother died young and only his father was a widower. Although there are some child servants in the house, among them... there is absolutely no such beautiful woman in front of him.

"Master Xu, the Ministry of Punishment has issued an official document. This time, Ma Zheng of Taipu Temple has been convicted of corruption. A total of 13 officials were questioned and executed, and more than 300 accomplices were exiled to Qiongzhou..."

"And you... are the main culprit. According to Taizu's "Great Edict", you will be skinned in another month..."

The young girl held the bamboo food box in both hands and lowered her eyebrows.

Although he had long known that he would die after being accused, when Xu Xing heard that he was going to be "skinned and stripped", Xu Xing still felt as if he had been struck by lightning. He was stunned for a while and could not recover.

The missing horse is a large eucalyptus.

If a man raises a war horse to death, he will be sentenced to three thousand miles of exile.

Stealing a war horse was punishable by death.

This time, the shortage of war horses in Taipu Temple reached more than 300 horses, which was a serious problem since the founding of the People's Republic of China. There is no doubt that the imperial court will severely punish offenders. But when it comes to peeling off the last, it’s still mind-numbing to think about.

"Then who are you? What are you doing here?"

Xu Xing sat cross-legged on the ground and took a look at the woman in front of him.

The girl is wearing a pink skirt, with a pale yellow silk ribbon tied around her waist, a flat bun, a face like a crescent moon, and a yellow plum blossom between her eyebrows. At this moment, she bent down obediently, revealing her exquisite figure.

Even if he is embezzled, he cannot afford to buy such a delicate and beautiful maid.

"The slave family was originally a servant of Wangyue Tower. Her name was Yun Niang. She was redeemed by Master Han three days ago. She came here to marry Master Xu at Master Han's order..."

"Master Han heard that Master Xu is still unmarried and has no heirs. He thought of his colleagues and ordered the slave family to leave a seed for Master Xu."

Zhao Yunniang said softly.

Room Ding twenty-four is surrounded by red curtains.

In the bridal chamber.

Xu Xing, who was washed and dressed, wore a big red flower on his chest. He glanced at Zhao Yunniang, who was sitting opposite him, and felt a little unbearable, "There is no need to marry a dying person like me. If you are willing, I will Just give Master Han a letter to repair and let you go free."

When a person is about to die, his words are also good. He couldn't bear to make Zhao Yunniang a widow for the sake of temporary happiness. Besides, if he dies, Zhao Yunniang will become a widow... If this woman is unwilling to keep her integrity, wouldn't it mean that she will have to wear countless cuckolds under her circumstances?

Rather than restricting Zhao Yunniang's life, it is better to do some good deeds before she dies, accumulate bad virtues, and let Zhao Yunniang go.

Even if Zhao Yunniang has to marry him as a concubine due to some practical factors, with these words, even if he dies, Zhao Yunniang is a person who appreciates kindness and will appreciate his kindness and will not hate him. And the posthumous son who treated him harshly...

Although he is a newcomer to the officialdom, he has experienced the ups and downs of the officialdom, which some cities still have.

Zhao Yunniang sipped the rouge paper, and her lips turned a lot of red.

The bride's make-up, with her phoenix crown and haori, made her even more charming.

"When you marry a chicken, follow the chicken. When you marry a dog, follow the dog. Even if Mr. Xu makes a mistake, he is still an official. It is a kindness not to disdain the slave family from Zhangtai. How dare the slave family disdain the master."

"Musel Dragon Powder has been placed in the food box. This powder will stimulate the blood energy in Mr. Xu's body to ensure that after a few good times... it will be enough to conceive the slave..."

She spoke concisely and to the point.

Hear this.

Xu Xing understood everything.

Han Sui sent Zhao Yunniang here to let him keep the seeds, not just out of kindness. The real purpose should be to make him run out of energy and blood after having sex and die suddenly before he can be executed...

One month seems short, but who knows if there will be changes within this month. Maybe someone will take this opportunity to start a party struggle and overturn the corruption scandal in Taipusi Ma Zheng.

The factional strife in the Fengxi Kingdom's court has become more serious than just one day or two. It is no longer a secret to just take sides, regardless of right or wrong.

But regardless of party struggle or not, Xu Xing guessed that it would be difficult for him to be released from prison in this life.
