Chapter 18 Becoming an Official in a Dream

Chen Yu was worried in his heart that he was now in prison, how would he go to the Changsheng Mansion when he was trapped, and he would sue for himself and Yu Mei who was sleeping, and if the truth of Xi Yuantong's case could not be ascertained, he would inevitably be accompanied by this cage oil lamp in the future.

It was already late at night, so I guess I couldn't, so I could find pen, ink, paper, and inkstone from the jailer, and write a complaint at night to explain the reason, hoping to get out of this prisoner's predicament as soon as possible.

In the dead of night, there was a sudden sound of human voices from the distance of the cell, and it turned out that it was the jailer who had come to inform the cells in the various areas, and the time had come to turn off the lights at night.

Two jailers walked side by side, one of them holding a lamp to watch the road below, and the other shouting at the prisoners at the top of his voice to turn off the lights.

In order to save tung oil, the prisons in each area will extinguish the lights and punish them with 20 lashes if they do not carry out the work, and each prison will immediately stop burning the tung oil lamps on their own.

Chen Yu suddenly blew out the tung oil lamp on the table, the darkness replaced the bright in an instant, and he sat down on the chair in the corner of the wall.

Not long after they sat down, in the silent night, fireflies flew in twos and threes, they sneaked into the fence, and flew wantonly in the prison cell, the green fluorescent dots were bright, and they flew around Yu Mei.

In the environment where he couldn't see his fingers, he once again began to worry about his tomorrow, let the fireflies keep flying, and couldn't help but fall asleep against the corner.

In a confused dream in his brain, he had to be recommended by Liu Xiangye, a powerful man in the court, and was summoned by the king to give the post of Changsheng Mansion Order in front of the palace, and the counselor Xu Wu shook hands with him and talked very happily, and wanted to send it outside the palace gate on foot.

On the day of taking office, Chen Yu wore a red tunic official uniform, wore a Zhu Chi crown and rode in eight sedan chairs, surrounded by the honor guard of the government order, passed through the Huiqu Gate into the outer city of Changsheng, and finally came to the front of the Yamen of Changsheng Mansion.

There are two stone lions at the entrance of the palace and glaring angrily forward, the seal inscription on the stone tablet on one side, the six years of Kailong Ji, the imperial court is the long-term prosperity and prosperity of the Gyeonggi important land of Bian Guo, and the policy of long-term peace and stability, so this Changsheng Mansion is established.

On this day, officials from various departments of Chang'an Mansion flocked to the main hall of Changsheng Mansion, and those present were the Criminal Investigation Department in charge of the criminal law of the world, the Finance and Taxation Department in charge of Gyeonggi Finance and Taxation, the Security Department in charge of the security of the outer city, the Agricultural Department in charge of the world's agriculture, and the Wenli Department in turn to pay homage to Chen Yu, the new commander of Changsheng Mansion.

It happened that Duan Qianshi, a friend who had met for many years, came to the mansion to congratulate Chen Yu on his appointment to the Changsheng Mansion, and learned that the lady in the family had given birth to a son, Chen Yu hurriedly named his son Chen Li, as if the lady was calling his name

In the middle of the night, the cell was unusually damp and the night was getting cooler, and he was disturbed by a chill that woke him up from his dream, and his eyes were dark.

In his ears, Yu Mei woke up and called his name.

He was still in a state of confusion, grabbed the flint on the table in a panic with both hands, and then hurriedly lit the wick, the small flame illuminated a small space, and after putting the flint on the table, he did not forget to take care of Yu Mei.

Did I wake you up, or did I wake you up?

Under the light, she sat on the bed and rubbed her eyes with her hands, and said to him lazily, I think you should wake me up, I want to pinch your nose, are you willing?

I shouldn't have lit the oil lamp, I wouldn't let you see me, and I was going to pinch my nose.

It's just that you love to look at me, be careful I don't care about you, I don't want to live here. She began to squeeze Chen Yu with bad intentions in the faint light.

Are you going out now, it's all like this now, he said very seriously.

I just want to be embarrassed for you, because I like this, I like the feeling when I'm against you, and I like to be with you.

That's why you're going into this prison with me?

Don't point me out, I won't go against you, it's like this in the future, Chen Yu, do you believe it or not?

If I don't believe you, what are you going to do?" Chen Yu asked her absurdly.
