Chapter 47 Imprisonment

Li Qing built a shed in front of his house, in which various foldable chairs and stools, large and small, were placed, and several domestic servants were responsible for selling them.

At the beginning, no one was willing to buy this kind of novelty, Li Qing came up with a solution, that is, he carried a chair and sat at the door, and the comfortable sitting posture attracted many onlookers.

"What is he sitting on?"

"It looks like it's comfortable."

"That's Hu people's stuff, I've seen it."

"Could it be that the Lord is a Hu man?"

"I don't know."

Finally, a wealthy merchant carefully threw out a bag of coins, bought a chair on which to lie down, and lay down comfortably on the spot.

"It's comfortable."

Seeing that someone had made a move, some of the onlookers began to take out coins and buy some stools and chairs.

"Knock Knock"

A well-dressed Qin army soldier came towards Li Qing's mansion, and where he passed, the people avoided it one after another.

When Li Qing saw this situation, for some reason, a trace of uneasiness welled up in his heart.

A black-faced strong man walked out of the ranks of the Qin army, this person Li Qing knew, it was General Yan who met in Xianyang Palace that day, Yan Ying.

Li Qing was shocked when he saw Yan Ying driving away the people and letting the soldiers surround him, and hurriedly asked, "General Yan, why are you doing this?" ”

Yan Ying looked at Li Qing, shook his head regretfully, and said: "On the orders of the Prime Minister, the Shaofu ordered Li Qing to use his power for personal gain, greedy for pleasure, and privately collect people's wealth, and the Prime Minister specially ordered me to arrest you, if you dare to resist, don't blame Yan for being ruthless." ”

Li Qing didn't expect that he was just selling some chairs, and he even violated the laws of the Qin State, you know, the laws of the Qin State are very strict, looking at the group of Qin soldiers who were eyeing the enemy, Li Qing wisely chose to give up resistance.

Seeing that Li Qing had no intention of resisting, Yan Ying nodded with satisfaction and signaled to the two soldiers beside him, and the two Qin soldiers immediately stepped forward and pressed Li Qing to the ground.

In the prison, Li Qing looked at the prison uniform on his body, with a bitter smile on his face, he didn't expect that he was still an official of Daqin during the day, and at night, he became a prisoner.

"I just want to make a little money, it's so hard."

Lying on the cold stone slab, Li Qing's face became more and more bitter.

At the gate of the Mongolian Mansion, one of Li Qing's servants wandered, but there was no way to enter the Mongolian Mansion.

As Shangqing, the threshold of the Meng family is very high, even ordinary Daqin officials have no way to easily enter and exit the Mongolian Mansion, if Li Qing is not friendly with Meng Yi, he is not qualified to enter and exit the Mongolian Mansion, let alone Li Qing's domestic servant.

The whereabouts of Li Qing's servant attracted the attention of the guards of the Mengfu Mansion, and coincidentally, it was Meng An who had dealt with Li Qing on duty today, and Meng An had been to the Li Mansion with Meng Yi several times, and happened to know this servant.

Meng An stepped forward, carefully identified it, determined the identity of the servant, and couldn't help but ask curiously: "Aren't you the servant of Li Shaofu's mansion, what are you doing here?" But what is there to explain in Li Shaofu's order? ”

The servant also recognized Meng An, and when he saw that Meng An knew him, he hurriedly cried: "Master Jun, please save my family, he was captured by some armor soldiers." ”

"What?"

When Meng An heard that Li Qing was captured by the Qin army, he was immediately shocked, the relationship between his own general and Li Qing Meng An was very clear, and Li Qing was usually very friendly to the guards of the Mongolian Mansion, so the relationship between the Mongolian guards and Li Qing was also very close, so Meng An asked the servants to wait for a while, and turned around and walked towards the inner house of the Mongolian Mansion.

Meng An hurriedly returned to the inner house of the Meng Mansion, found Meng Ying who was practicing swords, and told Meng Ying about Li Qing's accident.

When Meng Ying heard that Li Qing had an accident, she also panicked, and said hurriedly: "Who arrested Li Qing?" Now that the second brother is not in Xianyang, what should we do? ”

Meng Yi left Xianyang, as Qin Shi Huang used to supervise the hundred officials and the intelligence commander of the counties in the world, Meng Yi had no way to stay in Xianyang all the time, he had already left Xianyang three days ago and went to Mount Tai.

Meng Ying knew that although she was the young lady of Mengfu, she had no official position after all, no matter who arrested Li Qing, she had no way to rescue Li Qing, and the only one who could save Li Qing was Meng Yi.

Meng Ying said to Meng An: "Immediately send someone to Mount Tai to find the second brother back, and then let Meng You and others investigate for me, who ordered the arrest of Li Qing, and also, what is Li Qing's current condition, but his life is in danger, check it out for me, by the way, and the eldest brother, the eldest brother should also come back soon, you also send some people to investigate, to see when the eldest brother can return to Xianyang." ”

A ray of sunlight shone on Li Qing's face, Li Qing woke up in a daze, rubbed his stiff body, and Li Qing sighed deeply.

"Little brother, what did you do to be locked up here?"

An old voice sounded next door, Li Qing heard this, turned his head to look, and the person who spoke turned out to be an old man with gray hair, and the old man didn't know how long he had been locked up, his beard and hair were all tangled together, and he looked like a wild man.

Li Qing looked at the old man, shook his head and said, "I don't know what I have done." ”

When the old man heard this, he said curiously: "Hahahaha, I don't know if I will be imprisoned in this prison if I commit something?" The people who can be locked up in this place are all people with extraordinary status, little brother, what is your identity? ”

Li Qing didn't mean to deal with the old man, although it was a very beautiful thing to have someone to chat with in this prison, but Li Qing was really not in the mood to talk to the old man now, he just wanted to know now how he could escape the catastrophe in front of him.

He didn't offend Yan Ying, so Yan Ying arrested him, maybe it was really just because of Li Si's order, but he didn't have anything to do with Li Si, so why did Li Si deal with himself? Is it really just because he sold chairs and violated the laws of the Qin State?

Li Qing thought about it, and gradually fell into his mind, and the old man saw that Li Qing didn't care about himself, and he no longer was bored with himself, so he lay down on his own stone couch leisurely and began to play with his beard.

In prison, I don't know the time, Li Qing originally thought that someone would come to interrogate him soon, but he ate more than a dozen unpalatable prison meals in a row, and no one wanted to interrogate him, this time, Li Qing was really panicked.

Li Qing is not afraid of being interrogated, because Li Qing knows that even if he accidentally violates the laws of the Qin State, he should not be guilty to death, and when the time comes, the Meng family will also help him, at most, he will receive some criminal laws, and he has a knighthood, at most, he will resist the title.

But if he has been imprisoned in the prison, it will be troublesome, looking at the white-haired old man next to him, Li Qing was afraid for a while, he didn't want to become the same as the old man.
