Chapter 69: All You Need to Do Is 'Ah, Yes, Yes, Yes'
That evening, Li Jinglong and Zhu Gaoxu rushed into Jiang Xinghuo's cell in front of the jailers.
In fact, for the behavior of these two people who treat the edict as their own home, Jiang Xinghuo once doubted whether the background of these two families was through the sky.
Otherwise, how could the jailer ignore their behavior that clearly disturbed the discipline of the prison?
Jiang Xinghuo once saw with his own eyes that there was a Jiang Yang thief who was in custody and wanted to follow them and go to the cell of the beautiful scholar next door. As a result, the jailer, who was still in the state of a wooden man a second, was beaten with a stick and and urine.
The edict is not a hotel, and if the people who come in here do not have a strong background, they will usually be tortured by the jailers, not to mention that life is worse than death, and it can be said that they have lost a layer of skin.
Jiang Xinghuo has been leisurely so far, and it can only be said that it is thanks to the blessing of the second generation of Xun.
Li Jinglong entered the door and paced a few steps before finding that Jiang Xinghuo was carving wood with the gold carving knife he sent.
"What is Jiang Lang doing?"
"I learned a little story when I was in school." Jiang Xinghuo was still carving wood, and answered the question, "It's called the death of Archimedes." ”
"Ahh
"Archimedes, an ancient mathematician in the Far West, died when the Afang Palace in Great Qin had just begun to be built."
"How did he die?" Zhu Gaoxu asked curiously.
"Archimedes' city was breached, and he didn't know it, but he was still obsessed with mathematics, and the enemy soldiers broke into Archimedes' house, and saw a man who was buried in the ground, and the soldier trampled on the picture, and Archimedes angrily rebuked the soldier, 'Don't break my circle!' , the soldier drew his dagger and killed him. ”
Li Jinglong asked incomprehensibly according to his habitual thinking.
"Why didn't he run?"
"You think they're all like you?" Zhu Gaoxu asked disdainfully.
Li Jinglong immediately showed a depressed and uneasy appearance, his face was covered with a layer of gray, and some words were said in his mouth, but this time it was all 'attacking backwards', 'winning and entering', and so on, some words that he couldn't understand.
At this time, Zhu Gaoxu just made a gesture and laughed, and the inside and outside of the cell were filled with happy air.
Li Jinglong couldn't hold back Zhu Gaoxu's ridicule, and quickly changed the topic: "What does Jiang Lang's story mean?" ”
"That's what it means." Jiang Xinghuo finally finished carving a part of it and stuffed it under the straw pile, "Before you die, you must pretend to be a big one, so that you can leave a name in history." ”
Jiang Xinghuo blew the sawdust on his hand and looked up and asked.
"Don't talk about that. Tell me, what difficulties did the two of you encounter when you came? Jiang is a dying person, if there is someone who can help the two of them, he knows everything. ”
Zhu Gaoxu and Li Jinglong glanced at each other, but they humbled each other.
"You are old, you come first, I respect the elderly."
"You ask you first, I love the young."
In the end, a bearded Zhu Gaoxu, who looked older than the well-maintained Li Jinglong, stayed, while Li Jinglong avoided it for a moment.
"Mr. Jiang, that ......" Zhu Gaoxu looked a little embarrassed.
"Do you have a friend? Having trouble with that? ”
"No, no, no." Zhu Gaoxu waved his hand, "That's the case, you also know my family conditions." ”
"So you're here to show off your wealth to a dying man?"
Jiang Xing's sentence was approaching, and he was obviously in a very good mood, he asked jokingly.
"Hey, what did Mr. Jiang say, it's like this......"
After his narration, Jiang Xinghuo probably understood his distress.
It's simple and simple, it's nothing more than the matter of inheritance in a wealthy family.
Now although he is imprisoned in the edict as a defeated and captured general of the Southern Army, his father, as an old Hongwu noble, is naturally someone in the court who is easy to talk to, and he prefers him, so he plans to buy off the joint to avoid his "prison beheading" and get out of prison.
And he plans to perform well at the upcoming family banquet to gain his father's affirmation.
But according to him, his eldest brother is smart, at least much smarter than him. In this kind of scene where he can't use force, he is a little weak, afraid that he will miss the cowardice and fall into the disadvantage.
"It's not easy to stand up?"
Jiang Xinghuo patted Zhu Gaoxu's thigh and said affirmatively: "I have a good way." ”
"Mr. Jiang said it quickly."
Zhu Gaoxu was overjoyed, this is the guidance of the immortals, and it must be a wonderful plan that can be met but not sought.
"Ah, yes, yes, yes."
"What?" Zhu Gaoxu was stunned.
"It's just, no matter what your eldest brother says, you just have to pretend to be confident and pause for a moment, then smile and say 'ah, yes' with a condescending look and a little bit of sarcasm."
Zhu Gaoxu asked, "Doesn't that seem like I'm not assertive?" ”
"Didn't you realize that you were invincible?"
"What does Mr. Jiang mean by this?"
"If your eldest brother said the wrong thing, it was he who said it wrong first, he took the first blame, and you can interpret your following as ridicule according to your father's reaction."
"Your eldest brother said the right thing, and you followed suit, at least you didn't make a mistake, and your confidence will make people think that you have already thought of this."
"I see!" Zhu Gaoxu suddenly realized.
Immediately afterwards, he looked at Jiang Xinghuo with admiration.
Is this the guidance from the immortals?
Sure enough, I'm so much smarter than myself!
It seems that his performance at the court meeting this time will definitely be extremely satisfactory to his father!
The plan was perfect, it was foolproof.
Yes, it's foolproof!
"Mr. Jiang, I understand what you mean, I will definitely do what you say."
"Go ahead."
Zhu Gaoxu left the cell with excitement on his face, and then Li Jinglong, who was guarding the door, turned in.
"Jiang Lang, that's ...... like this"
His confusion was clearly different from the one before.
His confusion is that he doesn't want to be in the limelight.
Yes, because his crime is relatively minor, just shielding fugitives, and it won't take long to get out.
And in the future there is a conference that he must attend, but he doesn't want to show any limelight at the conference, he just wants to be a transparent person.
But he inherited the title, and as a noble with a high status, he didn't know what to do if he was called to speak at the meeting.
So I came to ask Jiang Xinghuo how to avoid being in the limelight and not doing the wrong thing and saying the wrong thing.
After waiting for a few breaths, Li Jinglong didn't get an answer, but looked at Jiang Xinghuo's eyes glazed, standing still, like a puppet.
In short, it's like ...... Disconnected.
"Jiang Lang? Jiang Lang, what's wrong with you? ”
After a few more calls, Jiang Xinghuo suddenly returned to normal and asked, "Have you learned?" ”
"Learn what?"
"Dumbfounded."
Li Jinglong's intelligence was obviously a cut above Zhu Gaoxu, and he comprehended the subtle use of this trick almost instantly.
"Wonderful!"
"Thank you Jiang Lang, with Jiang Lang's clever plan, this catastrophe will definitely be able to survive safely!"
"It's okay, I'm going to cut off my head in two days anyway." Jiang Xinghuo said indifferently.
Li Jinglong made a gesture, and then left in a hurry.
Closing the prison door, Li Jinglong took a few steps to meet Zhu Gaoxu, who hurriedly asked, "So do you know why you hurriedly informed us to participate in the temporary court meeting tomorrow?" What's going on? ”
Li Jinglong frowned slightly and said, "You don't know, how do I know?" ”
"My father has never been in such a hurry to convene a temporary court meeting...... It's not a day of synodic hope, and it's strange and strange. ”
Zhu Gaoxu asked: "Could it be that I played two letters to my father about gold and silver?" But my father gave me a 'read' in the afternoon, and a 'I know' just in the evening, and it doesn't look like I believe it. ”
"Don't panic." Li Jinglong stopped the other party's words, "No matter what happens, just follow what Jiang Lang taught you and how to adapt to the situation." ”
"Jiang Lang can't trap us, this time it must be safe."
Zhu Gaoxu nodded in agreement, this is the guidance of the immortals, how could it be wrong? Impossible.
Zhu Gaoxu is full of confidence in the big court meeting tomorrow morning!
This time, he will definitely not be embarrassed again.
"Ah, yes, yes, yes!"
