Chapter 59: My Territory, My Decision (2)
Speaking from the heart, staying on death row is indeed a test of a person's willpower.
In addition to the cold, humid environment, there is also a smell called loneliness!
This kind of feeling, Meng Yan tried when he was training in his previous life, his limit was seven days, and he was locked up in a place where there was no one and no sky for seven days!
Although he knew that it was just training, when he came out, he still felt like he was in a different world!
However, going to prison for the second time is no longer so scary!
"Go, get me some pen and paper, I want to practice calligraphy!" Meng Yan has found a thing to pass the free time in prison!
Practice calligraphy!
"Yes, Master Meng!" One of the servants who was sent by Sun Decai to accompany Meng Yan on death row hurriedly ran out.
After a while, the official took the four treasures of the study.
"Adult, the little one will sharpen your ink?"
"Okay, I'll reward you with a pot of good wine!" Meng Yan agreed with a smile.
"Thank you, Lord for the reward!"
"What to write?" Picking up the pen, Meng Yan didn't know how to put down the pen for a while, "Do you have a book, bring me one?" ”
"Yes, yes, I'll get it for you!" The other official was already dissatisfied with the other party stealing the limelight.
The Analects of Confucius, the University......
"Where did you get these books?"
"The eldest master heard that you want to practice calligraphy, so I will give you these books!" The official who took the book smiled and explained.
"Well, thank you for me!" Meng Yan smiled, this Sun Decai has no other skills, and he still has the ability to send sycophants.
"You don't have to stay here with me, go out, I like to be alone when I practice calligraphy!" Meng Yan waved his hand.
"Yes, Master Meng!" The two of them were also interested and said in unison.
Zi said: "When you learn, you learn it, and you don't want to talk about it." It's a pleasure to have friends from afar......"
Reading and practicing calligraphy on death row is a good choice, at least no one comes to disturb you.
In the blink of an eye, the sun was setting, and the death row was already dark, and without light, it was even darker.
"Lord Meng, the lights are here!"
"Thanks, just put it there!" Meng Yan greeted.
"Adults have practiced calligraphy for an afternoon, and they are tired, it's time to take a break?" The official kindly reminded him.
"Well, I'm really tired, I've been holding a brush for an afternoon, and my hands are sore!" Meng Yan said with a smile.
"Lord Meng is really interested, in this death row cell, he can still read and practice calligraphy, the villain is really admired!"
"Who's talking?"
"The villain has seen Master Meng!"
"Hou Gu, this name is a bit strange, who are you?" Meng Yan put down the scroll and stretched his waist.
"The villain is the long-term entourage of Du Chongdà, and on the order of Lord Du, I came to send some food and drink to Lord Meng!" Nahou drummed and said.
"Master Du has a heart, I'm very good here, there is no shortage of food and drink!" Meng Yan raised his head and said.
"My lord is kind, Lord Meng has to refuse?" Hou Gu said.
"In that case, then thank Master Du for me, I'll take it!" Meng Yan smiled and hugged his fist.
"Bring things in!" Hou Gu waved his hand, and two soap-clothed guys walked in from outside carrying things.
"Here's a mattress, a new set of cotton clothes and boots, and some wine and food, the villain has already confessed to the cell boss, give you a hot before eating!"
"Okay, got it, you have a heart!" Meng Yan nodded.
"Master Meng, the villain has retired!"
"Please, thank you on my behalf!"
"Okay!"
Du Chong, why did he send me something inexplicably, this thing is a little strange, could it be this......
The bedding and clothes are new, with a smell of soap, and the wine and food are also good, with wine and meat, meat and vegetarian matching!
I don't see anything out of the ordinary!
But Meng Yan didn't dare to eat it, God knows if there was any medicine in it, thinking about it carefully, this Hou Gu's expression when he spoke was a little weird!
Du Chong's long follower, who has no taste and no rank, how dare he talk to himself in this tone? Even Uncle Da is also respectful and humble, this is a hierarchical Ming Dynasty.
Eighty percent of the people called Hou Gu have problems!
"Two big brothers, please do me a favor!" Meng Yan summoned the two Daxing County officials who were listening to Hou in front of him.
"What did Lord Meng tell the villain?"
"How did that guy get in?"
"Oh, Hui Yu Lord Meng, I came in with the waist card of the brocade guard Nanya!" One of the officials explained.
"See clearly, is it really my Nanya's person?"
"I have to ask the cell boss about this, he let people in!" The official was a little uncertain, after all, he didn't see it with his own eyes.
"Go, inquire clearly, come back and report me!" Meng Yan commanded.
It was just a cup of tea, and the official came back, running all the way in a hurry, a little out of breath, and it seemed that he was usually negligent in exercising.
"Lord Meng, it's Jinyiwei's waist card, but the cell boss said that it was dark, and he didn't see who it was."
"Let people in without seeing clearly?"
"Lord Meng, you know, our small Daxing County Yamen, which yamen in the capital is bigger than us, no one dares to offend, so ......"
"Well, I also understand your difficulties, but if you forget your responsibilities because of this, when the time comes, you will be the ones who will suffer!" Meng Yan Road.
"Yes, yes, Master Meng is right!" The two nodded again and again, but it was difficult to say whether they could really listen to it.
"Go down, I'll call you for something!" Meng Yan waved his hand and drove the two out.
The bedding and clothes are all new, the materials feel good, the wine and food on this table, the wine and wine smell are not bad, this dish, it is a rich luxury to eat alone.
Isn't it just a good coffin?
I don't know if Guo Nu, the old fox, has realized it, and he should cooperate with his actions at this moment.
Meng Yan looked at the table full of wine and food, squatted for almost half an hour, and didn't dare to move his chopsticks, at this time, a series of hurried footsteps came, which seemed particularly clear in the silence of death row.
Hearing this footsteps, Meng Yan slowly opened his eyes!
"Humble He Jun see Lord Meng!"
"Mr. He, please rise!" Meng Yan stood up, although he has not officially joined the company, but Jinyiwei is a hierarchical organization, whoever is the official is big, who is big!
"You're finally here!"
"I came here on the orders of Lord Guo and waited for Lord Meng's dispatch!" He Jun was completely businesslike to Meng Yan.
"Mr. He, did you hold it?"
"Yes, Master Meng, it has been arrested!" He Jundao.
"Pack up everything here, bring it back, and check it one by one!" Meng Yan nodded and commanded.
"Yes, Master Meng!" With a wave of his hand, He Jun came in seven or eight wrestlers, packed all the things in the cell, and carried them out!
"Let's go, I don't need to stay on this death row, let's go back together!" Meng Yan Road.
"You're back, willing to come out of that cold, wet death row?" Seeing Meng Yan, Guo angrily glared, and his beard was cocked.
"Do you have anything to eat, I haven't eaten in a day!"
"Didn't someone bring you food and drink?" Guo angrily teased.
"Uncle Guo, you want to harm me, if I eat the wine and food they sent me, wouldn't I ask someone to carry it back now." Meng Yan Road.
"I guessed that someone wanted your life, why didn't you ever tell me about it?" Guo Nu asked.
"Uncle Guo, it seems that I told you a long time ago, I was chased and killed along the way, or my life would have been great, I am afraid that I would have become a corpse in the wilderness!" Meng Yan Road.
"Yes, you told me that the people who hunted you down have already been subdued by you?" Guo Nu asked strangely.
"Do you know who those killers contacted after they arrived in the capital?" Meng Yan Road.
"Who?"
"Menda!" Meng Yan finally spoke up.
"What, stinky boy, why didn't you say it earlier!" Guo Nu was taken aback when he heard this.
"Menda must die!"
"Even if Menda had to die, what could we ask from his mouth?" Guo Nu hesitated.
"No, don't you know if Menda will speak, even if he speaks, in such a short period of time, we can't let him speak, his death can't have anything to do with us on the surface, and he can't leave any flaws for Beiya!" Meng Yan said, "Otherwise, Beiya will catch any clue and chase after us, and we won't sit and watch Beiya's big drama like now!" ”
"But you still keep Qin Xiaoya's master and servant?"
"Qin Xiaoya's identity, I think Uncle Guo knows more than me, right?" Meng Yan asked rhetorically.
"You know everything?"
"I know a little, but it's not comprehensive, can Uncle Guo give me an explanation?" Meng Yan stared at Guo Nu and asked.
"Okay, I would have told you about these things after you officially joined the company, but now is the time for you to know!" Guo said angrily, "There are two major intelligence organizations in this dynasty, one is Jinyiwei, this person is well known, but its internal organization is not known to outsiders, and the second is the secret spy of the Jiaofang Division, and now there is one more Dongchang." ”
"The Department of Teachings is actually hiding an intelligence agency?" Meng Yan was very surprised, he had never seen it in any official history or wild history before.
"A woman's talent for being a spy is inherently superior to that of a man in some aspects, and most of the women in the Workshop Division have undergone rigorous training and are proficient in various skills, so they are naturally the best candidates for meticulous work!" Guo said angrily.
There is no need for Guo Nu to explain this, Meng Yan also knows that in his previous life, there were many famous institutions that trained female spies, and he did not deal with a lot of swallows, black ** and the like.
