Chapter 62: What do you do?
In the dungeon of Dali Temple, the head of the Xia cell locked the cell door, Zhang Yunhua walked out with Cheng Shuqin, and was walking to the table where a few jailers were gambling just now, when he heard the footsteps of a group of people, and he was almost outside the door leading to the outer cloister. Cheng Shuqin and Zhang Yunhua glanced at each other, and they both felt that the person who came was not good. Even if the person who came was not for Zhao Qingzhou, it was an unreasonable thing to see the doctor of the Criminal Department visiting the prison late at night.
But right now, there seems to be no place to hide in this dungeon with a fishbone-like layout, no matter which branch corridor they hide in, the two of them will be seen as they walk backwards. Cheng Shuqin knew that there was no way to avoid it, so he turned his heart sideways and stepped forward to open the door. The people outside the door were a little surprised when they saw the door suddenly open, and the leader seemed to be a military general, with a long sword with a steel sheath at his waist: "Lord Cheng? What are you ——? ”
Cheng Shuqin also made a look of surprise and said, "Oh, General Qin, you came here late at night, I don't know what you are doing?" A smile flashed in Qin Guoxi's eyes, and he said, "Master Cheng, I heard that Lord Jiangning Zhao is here, and I came over to take a look on the order of Prime Minister Shi." What are you here for? Maybe it's also for Lord Zhao. Cheng Shuqin said with a smile: "It's just a matter of business, since that's the case, I won't delay you." With that, Cheng Shuqin motioned for Zhang Yunhua to walk out.
"Master Cheng." Qin Guoxi didn't have the slightest intention of giving way, he stroked his beard with a smile: "Since it's official business, why didn't you see your carriage at the front door?" What kind of business is it necessary to have so many jailers guarding the door? Cheng Shuqin didn't expect Qin Guoxi to ask like this, and he couldn't answer it for a while.
Xia Prison Boss walked over from behind, and replied for him with a smile on his face: "General Qin doesn't know, those little officials have been gambling and drinking alcohol recently, and the villain has reminded him many times to no avail, so he can only report to Master Cheng of the Criminal Department." Master Cheng suddenly came over from the back door, trying to catch them off guard. No, I just happened to catch a spot, so I asked them to stand outside and sober up. ”
Qin Guoxi let out a meaningful "oh" and said with a smile: "It's that I misunderstood, but Xia Prison Leader, you don't take strict care of your subordinates, it's yours." Xia Prison said with a smile: "Please also ask General Qin to forgive me, the villain has an old bone, and he can't control them, or the general and Lord Cheng come often, and they can also be more restrained." As he spoke, he stretched out his hand to invite Qin Guoxi into the door, and secretly gave Cheng Shuqin a look, signaling them to leave quickly.
Cheng Shuqin pulled Zhang Yunhua to the side to dodge, and Qin Guoxi walked in with his subordinates. Zhang Yunhua lowered his head, only feeling cold: he had seen Qin Guoxi at the Yuanxi assembly in the palace a few years ago, and at that time, Qin Guoxi followed Shi Miyuan respectfully, and the two only glanced at each other hurriedly in the crowd and did not talk, so he was not worried that Qin Guoxi would recognize him. I'm just worried about this person who has Zhao Hong's blood on his hands, what does it mean? Later, Zhao Qingzhou will react when he sees this person who does not share the sky?
When Qin Guoxi passed by Zhang Yunhua's side, he suddenly stopped, looked Zhang Yunhua up and down a few times, and asked, "Master Cheng, this is also from the Criminal Department?" Cheng Shuqin said with a smile: "He usually does some chores in the back warehouse of the Criminal Department, and he has never shown up, but there are not enough people tonight, so I brought him here." Ah Ming, I've seen General Qin soon. As he spoke, he secretly pulled Zhang Yunhua behind his back.
Zhang Yunhua slowly raised his head and looked directly at Qin Guoxi, bowed, and said without humility or arrogance: "I have seen General Qin." Qin Guoxi narrowed his eyes and took a breath and said, "Looking at it like this, it looks a little familiar, probably seen in the Criminal Department." Master Cheng, if you let such a dignified man do chores in the warehouse, it is better to give him to me, to be a captain from the ninth grade, and follow me into battle to kill the enemy, and it will not be in vain for his life. ”
Cheng Shuqin couldn't tell whether Qin Guoxi was joking or serious, so he only smiled and said: "Thanks to the general, but this kid has a weak disease, he is hot and cold on weekdays, and if he doesn't pay attention to it, he will get seriously ill, which is really useless." Otherwise, if the general speaks, how dare I disobey. Qin Guoxi stared at Zhang Yunhua, nodded and said, "It's a pity." After saying that, he turned around and followed the head of Xia Prison to the depths of the dungeon.
Cheng Shuqin hurriedly took Zhang Yunhua out of the door, and the two of them hurriedly walked forward in the corridor, but Zhang Yunhua suddenly stood on his feet and said, "Master Cheng, I want to hear what Qin Guoxi's purpose is in exploring Dali Temple at night." Cheng Shuqin hurriedly said: "Don't be afraid, if he walks through the front door and passes through the bright face, he won't dare to kill people directly." Tomorrow, I will find someone to ask Lao Xia, and I will naturally know his intention, let's go quickly. Zhang Yunhua heard that Cheng Shuqin already had an idea in his heart, so he walked out with him.
As soon as the two of them came out of the back door of Dali Temple, they saw Xiang Kang coming over anxiously and said, "Uncle Cheng, Yunhua, are you okay?" Cheng Shuqin frowned and said, "Xiang Gongzi, why are you still here?" Your father should be in a hurry. Xiang Kang said: "Uncle doesn't know, I just walked to Huiying Building, and I saw Qin Guoxi hurrying here, I was really worried that something would happen to you inside, so I fell back." ”
Yunhua said: "Don't worry, something has happened, Mr. Cheng has dealt with it." Xiang Kang hurriedly said: "The reluctant invitation of the little nephew, who would have caused such trouble to the uncle, I am really guilty." Cheng Shuqin waved his hand and said, "It's okay, let's go back, tomorrow there is news, I will send someone to hand it to you." With that, with the support of Xiang Kang and Yunhua, he boarded the carriage.
When Li Zhuoran opened his eyes, the sky was already slightly bright. He sat up, saw that yesterday's masterpiece had disappeared from the paper, stood up in surprise, and shouted, "Long sail, long sail." Changfan woke up from a spirit on the couch outside, walked into the study and said, "Li Gongzi, how is it?" Seeing that the rice paper in Li Zhuoran's hand was blank, Changfan rubbed his eyes and said, "Sure enough, there is a problem with the ink." ”
Li Zhuoran calmed down and asked, "What's going on with this ink?" Who bought it? Changfan said: "It's Aunt Zhu, Aunt Zhu was brought by us from Lin'an, and she has been in charge of the purchase in the house." Li Zhuoran asked, "Is this person credible?" Chang Fan nodded hurriedly and said: "Credible, from the degree of food and clothing to the stitches and threads in the house, Aunt Zhu is responsible for purchasing, and there has never been a mistake." Li Gongzi, otherwise, I'll call Aunt Zhu to ask you. ”
Li Zhuoran explained: "Okay, just say that I asked Aunt Zhu to buy some things, just call her over, don't alarm others." ”
