Chapter 344: Eating in the same prison
Li Canghai's heart moved, and he immediately found that the mysterious box was the most crucial thing.
"Kuwashima ronin is fighting you for a box?" Li Canghai stopped and said suddenly.
This time, Lu Jitong's face suddenly changed dramatically, his pupils contracted, and his expression was extremely shocked.
Li Canghai looked at it carefully, and in his heart he was even more sure that his inference was correct.
"It seems that the official did not guess wrong." Li Canghai glanced at him lightly and said deeply: "This official is not interested in what you are fighting for, but if you act recklessly within the jurisdiction of this official, this official has to take care of it." ”
Lu Jitong frowned, he stared at Li Canghai, and said equally seriously: "My lord, listen to my words and persuasion." This is definitely not something that an adult can imagine in a prefectural order, and I will not reveal any information. ”
After saying this, Lu Jitong sat down very simply and began to close his eyes and recuperate.
Li Canghai stared at Lu Jitong, and after a long while, he said lightly: "Don't think that if you don't open your mouth, this official won't be able to find out what happened." ”
Saying that, Li Canghai flicked his long sleeves and was about to leave the cell with Xue Xuan.
At this moment, a servant hurriedly walked in with a food box.
"My lord, just now a woman sent a food box, and she wants to give it to Lu Jitong by name."
Li Canghai took the food box and asked, "Where is that woman now?" ”
"Back to my lord, after the woman handed the food box to the little one, she left the cell." The official said respectfully.
Li Canghai pondered for a moment and asked, "What is that woman's appearance?" ”
"She had a veil on her face and couldn't see clearly. But. She was dressed in a green dress and carried a lantern in her hand. The official thought for a moment and said.
Li Canghai looked at the food box in his hand. Then he whispered a few words to Xue Xuan, and after Xue Xuan listened. He nodded again and again, and then left the cell.
"Go down." After Li Canghai dismissed the officials, he opened the food box.
The food box contains a few side dishes, a roast goose, and a pot of sake.
In addition, there is also a silk silk in the food box, which is as white as snow, and a small cherry blossom is embroidered on it, exuding a faint fragrance. At first glance, you can see that it is used by women.
Li Canghai carefully inspected the food box, however, there was no hidden compartment in the food box.
He picked up the silk and examined it carefully.
He knew that there was a way to hide the handwriting.
The method is nothing more than to use pure water to bleaching brine sand to grind into the end, and then use a clean pen to make a book, and write on white paper, after writing, the handwriting disappears, but with fire to illuminate it. Or to the sun to dry, then the handwriting is fully revealed, this is the white paper calligraphy.
Thinking of this, Li Canghai took down the torch stuck in the wall of the cell. Then he took the silk silk and looked at the flames.
However, there is no handwriting on the silk, and it looks like it is an ordinary silk.
Li Canghai thought about it. The silk was then placed in the food box, and then the food box was taken to the cell.
Lu Jitong didn't seem to expect Li Canghai to go and return. He looked at Li Canghai in surprise, and then closed his eyes again.
"Lu Jitong. Someone came to see you, and this is a meal for you. Li Canghai walked into the cell, put down the food box casually, and said lightly.
Lu Jitong didn't even open his eyes, as if an old monk was in a trance.
Li Canghai smiled, sat down casually, and said, "If you think that this official is lying to you, after reading it, you will naturally know." ”
Lu Jitong's brows furrowed slightly, and after a little hesitation, he opened his eyes and looked at Li Canghai.
"Please." Li Canghai pointed to the food box with his hand and smiled slightly.
Lu Jitong thought about it and felt that Li Canghai didn't seem to have to lie to him, so he simply opened the food box.
took out the dishes inside, and Lu Jitong directly threw the food box aside.
"I've been busy until now, I haven't even eaten a piece of steamed buns, Brother Lu, don't you mind if you eat some?" Li Canghai smelled the fragrant dishes and said cheekily.
Lu Jitong was stunned, as if he didn't expect Li Canghai to eat with him.
"The lord is dignified and respectful, but he deigns to the prison, and dines with me, a prisoner, for fear of losing his identity?"
"Identity can't fill your stomach, in the face of such a delicious food, how many ninjas are there?" Li Canghai touched his stomach and said with a smile: "The so-called, it is better to be happy alone than to be happy with everyone." Could it be that Brother Lu is unwilling to share these delicacies? ”
Lu Jitong's eyes narrowed slightly, he was not a fool, he could naturally see that Li Canghai did this for another purpose.
"Being able to eat in the same prison with adults is a blessing in the next three lives. Since your Excellency has said so, how can you refuse it, please. Lu Jitong said indifferently.
Li Canghai smiled, reached out and tore off a goose leg, and feasted on it.
"Great! This roast goose is crispy on the outside and tender on the inside, which is simply a must in the world! Hey, Brother Lu, why don't you eat it? Aren't you afraid that this food is poisonous? ”
Li Canghai couldn't help but praise while feasting.
Lu Jitong didn't touch those dishes, he stared at Li Canghai, and suddenly said seriously: "My lord, this meal is indeed poisonous!" ”
Li Canghai was stunned, but then he laughed nonchalantly.
"Why are you laughing?" Lu Jitong frowned slightly, ordinary people were already frightened when they heard that the dishes were poisonous, but Li Canghai not only did not have any fear, but could laugh out loud.
Tearing off another goose leg casually, Li Canghai said calmly: "This meal was sent by the Dongying woman who saved you, how can it be poisonous?" ”
"How did you know that she had sent this food? Even if it was really sent by her, wouldn't the adults worry that she would poison the food in order to kill me? Lu Jitong asked rhetorically.
Li Canghai tore off a piece of tender meat from the goose's leg, chewed it, and said: "If she wanted to kill you, she wouldn't have ventured into the county government to save you." As for how did I know that the person delivering the food was a woman from Dongying? ”
Li Canghai paused, he glanced at Lu Jitong, picked up the small wine jug and said, "This sake is a specialty of Dongying, how can I not know?" ”
Lu Jitong touched his nose in surprise and said with a smile: "My lord is not only thoughtful, but also well-informed, admired, admired." ”
Li Canghai smiled in his heart, he liked to drink in his previous life, and he knew a lot about Dongying's sake, as long as he smelled it with his nose, he could easily distinguish it.
After eating the whole roast goose cleanly, Li Canghai patted his stomach and said lightly: "Now, it's time for you to explain." ”
Lu Jitong was slightly stunned, "What do you want me to explain?" ”
"You and I are both smart people, and we both know that this food delivery is fake, and the delivery of news is real. I didn't find a note or anything like that, but I know there must be a way for you to secretly pass the message on to each other. Li Canghai wiped the oil stains from the corners of his mouth and stared at Lu Jitong intently. (To be continued.) )
