I smiled and said, "Being an official, in fact, there is nothing good, you have to look at the faces of those officials all day long, not only that, but you also have to do things for those emperors all day long, if you don't do well, they will blame you, maybe you will be beheaded."

"Childe, why do you know so much about this matter, could it be that you are an official? What have you done"? The boy continued to ask.

I shook my head and stared at the wick of the candlestick and said, "No, I'm not an official, I'm a common man like you, and it's even harder to say what I have done, so what about you, what have you done?"

The young man took a deep breath and then spit it out, and said, "If I were a common man, it might be better, but unfortunately I am not, I used to be Korean, and Korea went to war with Qin, and Korea had no soldiers, so we seventeen or eighteen-year-old children were used in the army and went to the battlefield to kill the enemy." After the fall of Korea, we became pawns and were imprisoned.

"I see, then what's your name". I continued to ask.

The boy replied, "I am the fifth oldest in the family, so they all call me Little Five."

"Okay, Little Liu, I will definitely take you out when I go out, you are still young and you can't stay in this prison for the rest of your life." I said.

Hearing me say this, Xiao Liu got up from the ground very excitedly and asked, "Childe, when will you be able to get out?"

I smiled at him and said, "I'm so much worse than you, capital offense!"

"Ahh The young man instantly sat on the ground weakly and muttered, "Capital crime, Childe, you can't even save yourself, how can you save me."

I didn't answer him, but laughed, maybe I really didn't know how to answer him. I talked to Xiao Wu late that night, he told me about his childhood, and I also told him many things about my hometown, some of which he didn't understand or know, but he was really happy.

When I woke up again, it was the second day, and I slowly sat up, rubbed my eyes and looked out of the cell. I saw a few guards and a few maids standing outside the cell. This really surprised me, could it be that the death penalty was carried out early? It shouldn't be, even if it's executed in advance, what's going on with these maids?

"Are you awake"? A familiar voice reached my ears.

I followed the source of the sound and saw Princess Gao Yang standing in my cell, with a table of delicious food in front of her. I was very confused, looked at Princess Gao Yang and said, "Princess, why are you here."

Princess Gao Yang walked up to me and squatted down, and then I asked, a faint fragrance. She put her hand on top of my head, and I hurriedly reached out to stop me and said, "What are you doing".

"It's nothing, I see that your hair is messy and I want to help you tidy it up, if you don't want to, forget it." Princess Gao Yang stood up and walked towards the table, saying as she went, "Come and eat."

"Oh". I don't know what's going on, but I'm honestly a little hungry. I slowly stood up, dusted myself off, and walked over to the table.

The table was moved in by the princess, and the dishes on the table were also very eye-catching, I scanned the table with wide eyes, all kinds of meat, all kinds of vegetables.

The maid next to me put a pair of chopsticks in front of me, put another wine glass and poured me a glass of wine by the way. I could only nod awkwardly as a token of gratitude.

Princess Gaoyang picked up a chicken leg with chopsticks and put it in my bowl and said, "Eat, why don't you eat it?" Isn't it delicious"?

I took a look at the guards and maids outside the cage, and the maids were better with their heads down, but the guards looked at me and Princess Gaoyang with wide eyes, for fear that I would eat Princess Gaoyang. "Princess, how embarrassed to eat by so many people looking at me".

Princess Gao Yang waved her hand at the guards and maids outside the cell, and they understood what Princess Gao Yang meant, and bowed and withdrew. After they retreated, I didn't eat it immediately, but walked to the corner of the cage with the chicken leg in the bowl, put the bowl into Xiao Wu's cell through the gap, and leaned on the other corner Xiao Wu looked at me with grateful eyes.

I smiled at him, then got up and sat down on my knees back at the table. Princess Gaoyang was a little reluctant, looked at me and reproached, "Wang Shuo, how can you give a prisoner the chicken leg I gave you."

"Princess, please don't look at people with this kind of eyes, although you are a princess on the top, but you are just a different status, you are also a human being, and these prisoners have only made some mistakes, why should the princess look at them like this." I looked at the food on the table and said solemnly.

Hearing me say this, Princess Gaoyang's expression immediately changed. She swung her cotton-like fist at me, and I reached out to block it and said, "The princess doesn't have to be like this, I will be ordered to be executed in two days, and then I, the one who makes the princess angry, will naturally disappear from this world."

"You"! Princess Gaoyang stood up and shouted at me, "Wang Shuo, do you think I really hate you and really want you to die, if that's the case, why would I run out of the palace and come to this lowly place to bring you food and listen to your teaching." With that, she left the cell angrily.

Princess Gaoyang's guards did not immediately follow Princess Gaoyang away, but whispered to me, "Prince Wang Shuo, you really misunderstand my princess, the princess is going crazy for your business these days, she has asked King Qin for her life many times, but she has been rejected."

I looked at the maid and said, "I can think of it, but I don't want her to wade into this troubled water, you take care of the princess for me."

"Childe, please rest assured, I will definitely take care of my princess." After that, the maid saluted and left.

I looked at the food on the table that didn't move, and sighed deeply, in fact, I also understand that Princess Gaoyang is good to me, and the reason why I can't accept her is that there are two willingness, one, I have a different identity from her, if I get too close to her, she will also become the target of Li Si's attack. The second reason is also the most important one, that is, she is a woman born in the royal family, and she has always been served by others, quite like the son of a rich family, arrogant and domineering, and looks down on people. She's not the type I like, both in personality and otherwise.

I was just about to pick up my chopsticks and taste the food when I heard a commotion coming from outside the cage, and I fixed my eyes to see an adult in an official robe rushing in with a number of guards. The guards opened the door to my cell, and the lord entered.
