If you have something to say, you will be short. Ordinary days always pass very quickly. Months pass by in a flash. Now it is the middle of winter in the twelfth lunar month.

Although Jiangzhou City, located in the south, is not like the north, the wind will be filled with snow when winter enters, making it difficult to go out, because of the cold weather and the north wind, there are still many fewer pedestrians on the street recently than before, which makes the three people entering the city gate in the afternoon that day look particularly eye-catching.

It’s not because this group of people was escorted by two gangs to a prisoner, which is surprising. Although the Song Dynasty has been in peace for a long time, there are many criminals who commit crimes. Every month, there are always a few prisoners who are escorted here, and people have long been accustomed to it.

But the prisoners who came to Jiangzhou today were a little different. Although the short black man was also wearing a brown prison jacket and a wooden shackle was locked on his neck as usual, his spirit was far better than those who were escorted to him on weekdays. Not only did he look rosy, but his steps were even solid and powerful, and he didn't feel like he had been working hard on a long journey.

What's even more strange is that the two messengers did not hold their attitude towards him like prisoners like escorts, and they would scold them from time to time, but followed him like a slave companion, half a position behind him. If you really want to describe it, these two messengers were more like escorts than escorts.

The black and short prisoner was a little uneasy about the strange gazes seen by the people around him, and then smiled and said, "You two brothers can actually follow the rules. There is no need to be so respectful to Song, so that people will not be despised by you." Although this is reasonable, it doesn't seem like the prisoner should have said to the official officer.

The two of them smiled: "Song Aishi said this. We brothers have benefited a lot from you all the way. If you hadn't come forward to protect us two days ago, we would have died long ago. Now we have arrived in Jiangzhou. We should send you the last journey."

Seeing that the two of them insisted, the prisoner couldn't say anything else, so he could only smile at them with gratitude and then continued to move forward quickly. Fortunately, he couldn't see other people soon because they had arrived in front of the prison camp. The local governments were not allowed to approach ordinary people at will.

They came to the small camp gate and handed over the relevant documents for inspection. Only after they handed over the prisoner to the prison guard who came to verify his true identity, they then gave the prisoner a few words before bowing away. Many soldiers who saw this scene showed strange looks, and were guessing what the identity of the prisoner sent this time was, and they could get such courtesy. Some people also felt that this person should have brought a lot of money, and perhaps they could have more benefits from him.

But just as they were whispering, the prison guard coughed, looked at the prisoner for a few glances and said, "Your name is Song Jiang, from Yuncheng County, Shandong? But is that Yuncheng County Guard Secretary who is known as the timely rain?"

"It's Xiaoke that makes the ministerial level worry." Song Jiang smiled bitterly and bowed his hand to politely.

Yes, this strange prisoner was Song Jiang and Song Gongming who was locked up by the government and sent to Jiangzhou by the government. Although he looked much more energetic than ordinary prisoners, he was still a little more haggard than before, and his face was also full of helplessness and bitterness.

The prison guard said, "It's indeed Song Gongming, the lower official Ji Zhou is polite. I have heard that Song Ai Si is the most righteous and generous person and respected by heroes in the world. How could he end up like this?"

"This..." Song Jiang was a little confused at the time. Fortunately, the other party had no intention of understanding, but he quickly changed his mind as soon as he mentioned it casually: "Song Aishi must be very distressed when he came from afar. I'll send you in and settle down. Come on, take off the shackles on Song Aishi's body, why don't you have any eyesight?" The latter sentence was said to the soldiers who were already stunned by the scene before him.

Everyone was stunned again, and then they were somewhat confused and reluctant to go forward to help Song Jiang open and remove the shackles. You must know that since these prisoners entered the prison camp, they have become the targets of their extortion and exploitation. The first barrier is to open the shackles.

Because every prisoner sent to the prison is covered with shackles and locks, and he will not be able to move. Moreover, the wooden shackles weighing dozens of pounds will be overwhelmed. At this time, if the officers and soldiers of the prison camp take the burden of his journey, they have to spend money to handle it. If there is a tough temper who refuses to pay, these officers and soldiers will throw him into the cell with shackles, and at least he has to toss him for ten days and half a month before he can spare him. Of course, generally speaking, the prisoners who arrive at the prison camp are quite obedient, but they dare not offend these guards for a little money.

Originally, they planned to make some money from Song Jiang, but unexpectedly, Jijie-level, who was quite greedy in the past, became more and more arrogant. They didn't get the money and directly untied the shackles.

But since it was the order of the boss, these people did not dare to disobey, so they had to come forward and skillfully untie the shackles that were tied to Song Jiang one by one. After being freed from the bondage, Song Jiang smiled and bowed to these people to thank them: "Thank you for your help. I don't respect you a little, I hope you don't want to dislike you." As he spoke, he actually took out a bag of money from his arms and sent it to the hand of a person next to him.

The man knew that he would not have a 500-yuan sum in his hand, which was more abundant than usual for shackles. He immediately smiled and said, "Song Ai Si is too polite, so I'm respectful and obedient." Everyone can get a 100-yuan sum of money for each of them, so they naturally would not refuse.

Seeing that Song Jiang was so aware of the generality, Ji Zhou also smiled happily. He could make things easier for Song Jiang, but others still had to need him to make friends with him: "Song Ai Si, please follow me in and settle down, and then go to see Dean Dai here, and he will arrange the relevant matters."

Song Jiang nodded and thanked him, and then he stuffed a bag of money into Ji Zhou's hands: "Thank you for your care and advice, please don't refuse this."

After Ji Zhou took the money bag casually, he felt a little more affection for Song Jiang, and then said, "Song Ai Si is so polite. Even if you don't give me money, I will arrange everything for you. But... the rules in my Jiangzhou Prison Camp in the past few months have become different from the past, otherwise I will be able to help you find a job that is light and light."

"Oh, what's the difference?" Song Jiang has been in the officialdom for many years. Although Yuncheng County and Jiangzhou are thousands of miles apart, the rules of the world's prison city are similar, so he was prepared. But now, it seems that there are some changes here?

"Now, Sun Tuanlian, who is in charge of my prison camp, is Mr. Huang. Neither of these two people are too greedy for money. Instead, they are very helpful to some poor, elderly and weak, so even if they have money, they may not be able to nod and give you a light job." Ji Zhou lowered his voice and said.

"Oh, there is such a thing?" Song Jiang also asked in a little surprise.

"Actually, it's very strange for us to wait, but Sun Tuanlian has always been honest and self-reliant. He only takes the portion he should have, which makes me have nowhere to start. Moreover, he is a confidant around Prefect Cai. We, a villain, dare not act lip service except to obey orders." After explaining a few casually, Ji Zhou took Song Jiang to an empty room at the front of the prison cell, and asked the prison guards who were guarding the side to open the door, so he let Song Jiang live in first: "When the official goes to see President Dai, then make other arrangements."

Song Jiang nodded and looked around the cell habitually, but found that it was much cleaner than he thought. Not only did it not have the smell of smell in the cell, but it could not even see the miscellaneous water and other things, and it was even more decent than some rural shops he had lived along the way. This surprised him and couldn't help but ask: "Jingjie level, is this really a cell? Why is it so clean?"

"Well, this is what Sun Tuanlian means. Since he took office at the end of June, he has asked prisoners to clean all the cells every half month. Now everyone has developed a habit. Not to mention your single cell, even if you have lived in a large cell with more than ten people in the back, it will be clean. But this is also beneficial. At least not many prisoners who have been detained here in the past few months have become ill, and they have not died of illness in a few months. It really saves a lot of trouble." Ji Zhou answered casually and left in a hurry.

Song Jiang was stunned when he heard this. He never thought that someone would let someone clean the prison camp: "Who is Sun Tuanlian? He really has some methods. I don't know when he would be lucky enough to meet him..." Although he has become a prisoner, he still has the heart to make friends with heroes in the world.

Ji Zhou did not delay and soon came to the public housing in the front yard of the prison camp with Song Jiang's relevant documents. Just as he was about to report this to Dai Zong, he saw President Dai standing down, and a handsome young man was sitting in front of his seat. He was looking at something, but Sun Tuanlian suddenly arrived here.

This made Ji Zhou a little difficult. After all, some things under the table cannot be seen, and I don’t want Sun Tuanlian to know in person. But everyone is here...

Sun Tu raised his head as if he was aware: "Why are you from Jijie? Why are you embarrassed?" As he said that, he looked at Dai Zong again, which made the latter nervous. Although they had only been together for a few months, they had developed a sense of awe for Sun Tu. Sometimes they didn't have to say anything, and a look could suppress everyone.

"Ji Zhou, do you have any official duties to report?" Dai Zong could only say perfunctorily.

After his thoughts were turned, Ji Zhou could only come in and answer honestly: "Now, a criminal from Yuncheng County, Song Jiang was escorted to my Jiangzhou. The youngest came to ask President Dai to decide." Although he admired Song Jiang and wanted to help him, the latter was of course more important than his own errands.

After hearing this, Sun Tu and Dai Zong were both stunned and said softly: "Why is he here?"
