The Prodigal Son’s Happy Life - Chapter 475
[Chapter 475 Debt Collection]
Kyoto Prefecture, prison.
Fang Xiu sat on the stone bed that had been covered with silk quilts. In front of him was a solid wood table with various delicacies placed on it.
There was no one in the entire cell except for a guard who was cautious and trembling beside him.
“Xin Amber, is today’s meal to your liking?”
The jailer brought a bowl of sweet-scented osmanthus porridge and placed it on the table, with a flattering smile on his face and said flatteringly.
Fang Xiu raised his eyes, glanced at him, nodded, and said, “It’s not bad.”
Such words made the jailer feel that he had received great appreciation. He smiled flatteringly and said, “I heard that, you are the best.” My favorite is Chunfenglou’s sweet-scented osmanthus porridge. This bowl of sweet-scented osmanthus porridge was bought from Chunfenglou when I was young. It was covered with cotton cloth on the road.”
Before he could finish his words, he saw the new Amber’s face showing impatience. With an expression on his face, he said hurriedly: “You’re talking too much. I’ll leave right now. I won’t disturb you.”
“Wait a minute.”
Fang Xiu raised his eyes, looked at the jailer, and asked, “What’s going on outside?”
The jailer stopped. He stepped down and bowed: “I don’t even know, I heard that some merchants were making trouble in front of the house, but I don’t know why.” When
Fang Xiu heard this, he showed a thoughtful expression on his face and waved. He waved his hand and said: “I know, let’s go down.”
“Yes, Uncle!”
The jailer responded, turned around and left.
However, after turning around, I saw a person and was stunned.
After a moment, he realized what he was doing and hurriedly knelt down: “I have met you in this humble position!”
Fang Xiu heard this and raised his eyes. After seeing the man clearly, he lowered his head and continued to eat his food.
The governor of Kyoto ignored the jailer, walked up to Fang Xiu, looked at him, and slowly said: “Xin Amber, do you know what happened outside?”
Fang Xiu was drinking porridge and ignored him.
The governor of Kyoto was not angry when he saw this scene, and continued: “Xin Anbo owes Baolefang 300,000 taels of silver?”
Fang Xiu still said nothing.
Seeing this scene, the governor of Kyoto understood why this person wanted to live in his place.
This is to use his own Kyoto Prefecture to hide from the merchants outside!
He took a deep breath, suppressed the rising anger in his heart, and said, “Is the new Amber prepared to stay in Kyoto like this?” When
Fang Xiu heard this, he slowly raised his head and glanced at Kyoto. The governor said calmly: “It was you who captured me in Kyoto Prefecture, but now you say that I am here in Kyoto Prefecture. What’s the truth?” When
the governor of Kyoto heard this, his face became a little ugly, and he replied : “This is just a misunderstanding.”
He already had some understanding of the ins and outs of this matter.
I knew in my heart that it was indeed the police officer in my house who made the mistake in this matter.
However, no matter what, this new Amber also has certain responsibilities.
If he had revealed his identity from the beginning, those detectives would not have had the guts to escort him back to Kyoto Prefecture.
After hearing this explanation, Fang Xiu sneered and said: “If you say that I violated the laws of Dachu, it is a violation of the laws of Dachu. If you say it is a misunderstanding, it is a misunderstanding. How can such a thing happen in this world?
Could it be that the imperial regulations are just child’s play in the eyes of the Governor?”
The Governor of Kyoto’s face became even more ugly when he heard what he said.
For a moment, I didn’t know how to refute.
He thought for a moment, looked at Fang Xiu, and asked, “What does the new Amber want?”
Fang Xiu clapped his hands, stopped talking, and continued to lie down.
When
the governor of Kyoto saw this scene, he was slightly startled and his expression turned extremely ugly.
In all the years he has been sitting in the position of Fu Yin, he has never seen anyone as shameless as this guy.
This guy clearly relies on Kyoto Prefecture!
And the methods used were very low-level, just like the gangsters on the street.
But
there was nothing I could do against him.
He took a deep breath, a cold look flashed in his eyes, snorted coldly, turned around and left without thinking about further persuading him.
As soon as he walked out of the prison, a police officer came over and whispered: “Sir, more and more merchants are gathering outside. Do you want to go out and meet them?”
The governor of Kyoto heard this and glanced at He glanced at him and said coldly: “What they want to see is the new Amber, what does it have to do with me?”
After hearing this, the detective suddenly did not dare to speak.
At this time, there was a burst of fierce shouting outside.
“We want to see Xin Anbo!”
“What did Xin Anbo do to deserve to be imprisoned!?”
“Why should Kyoto Prefecture imprison Xin Anbo!?”
“”
Kyoto Prefecture heard these words, but seemed not to hear them. Generally, keep moving forward.
In the past two days, he has gradually become accustomed to similar words.
At first, he found it baffling that the merchants in the capital gathered in front of the capital for no apparent reason. They did not hesitate to offend the Yamen and stand up for a dandy.
However, it was not until later that he realized that it was Fang Xiu who owed money to these people.
On the surface, these merchants are seeking justice for Xin Amber, but in fact they are seeking to collect debts and get their own money back!
If you want to solve this matter, it is very simple. You only need to release Xin Amber and explain to these merchants that Xin Amber has not committed any trouble and the reason why he is being held here is just a misunderstanding.
But
the crux of the problem lies in this, he is unwilling to go out to Xin Amber!
Throughout the ages, the prisons of the Kyoto Prefecture have been places that people all over the world have avoided.
Even when some officials heard the word “dungeon”, their expressions changed.
But he didn’t expect that there would be a person staying in the dungeon by himself, unwilling to come out. This
was extremely ridiculous to both the governor of Kyoto and the policemen who stayed in the Yamen when they thought of this.
But the fact is that
they have no choice.
The people inside looked sad and helpless about this matter.
The same goes for people outside.
These merchants got the IOUs from Baolefang and made up their minds to go to Fang Mansion to get their money back even if they were beaten.
However, when a group of people arrived in front of the Fang Mansion with the determination to face death, they got the news that a new Amber had been captured by the Kyoto Prefecture police.
At first they thought it was just prevarication.
After all, that person is Xin Anbo, a figure that neither His Highness Prince Ning nor His Highness Prince Kang can do anything about!
How could he be captured by a few small agents in Kyoto Prefecture?
But after several inquiries, they were surprised to find that it was true!
More than one passerby saw a young man in fine clothes being escorted to Kyoto Prefecture by several police officers.
After questioning, it was finally confirmed that this young man was the new Amber.
After receiving this news, almost every merchant was so angry that he wanted to vomit blood.
This Kyoto Prefecture police officer was so bold that he even arrested Xin Amber!
