Chapter 40: The Mansion of the Priests
"Okay, I'll go with you, but you can help me open the prison!"
Tian Qi looked at the old ghost and finally agreed, and turned his head to look at the prison guard in charge.
"My lord, I don't have the key here. The jailer hurriedly shook his head.
"Don't look at me, my lord, I don't even have the key here. Di Yong looked at Tian Qi's eyes and hurriedly explained.
Tian Qi took a step back and directly gave way to the door of the dungeon in front of him: "Xiao Gao, you go." ”
Gao gradually took a step forward and quickly drew his sword.
"Qiang~"
"Bell Bell Bell ......"
The long sword was infused with spiritual power by Gao Yuanli, which can be described as indestructible, but it was a spark that came out, and the lock on the cell door did not move at all.
"It's useless, otherwise I'd have been out a long time ago!" the old ghost waved his hand as a scoundrel.
Gao Yuanli also stopped at this time.
But Tian Qi's stubborn temper came, and he still didn't believe in evil: "You two, go find me a thin copper wire now, I'm going to use it now." ”
Di Yong and the prison head glanced at each other, knowing that this was no longer their way to participate, but then turned around and walked away quickly.
It didn't take long for the prison chief to come back and say, "My lord, this is the copper wire you need." ”
Tian Qi took the copper wire and began to tinker with the copper lock on the cell door.
The old ghost looked at the confident young man just now, and now he turned around and turned into a ninth-rate character from a hundred schools, thinking about the depression just now, he joked slightly and retaliated: "Yo, are you still coming to lock?"
"Nonsense, we stayed with the thief for ten days, and we didn't take the opportunity to learn something, so how can we do it. Tian Qi lowered his head and tinkered carefully.
Click, click~
Tian Qi watched as the lock in front of him finally opened, and opened the dungeon door that had not been opened for a long time.
Suddenly.
In the ears of the happy old ghost, a familiar voice sounded, and the old ghost paused as he prepared to step into the dungeon.
"Old ghost, since you are out, then follow him well, otherwise I don't mind obliterating you before I ascend. ”
But Tian Qi was stunned, and said with some confusion: "Come out, why are you still reluctant?"
The old ghost immediately came back to his senses, smiled and walked out of the cell and said, "I have been in it for more than a hundred years, and I am indeed a little reluctant!"
Tian Qi was a little surprised: "You have been abandoned for more than a hundred years, but you are an old antique, can you still use it?"
"Since you don't believe it, why don't I enter again?" The old ghost also understood Tian Qi's character a little at this time, and he was also a little unlucky.
But Tian Qi has never been a loser in his mouth, "Since you still want to enter, please go inside, I will add a few locks to you that are easy to open even if you are a 'thief'." ”
The old ghost can only honestly shut up, and it is an unwise decision to find that it is an unwise decision to talk to the other party.
Tian Qi saw that everything had been settled, and he was originally going to rectify the cell, but he didn't ignite the second fire at all.
Even gave him a surprise.
However, when Tian Qi looked at Di Yong and the prison head, he said in a stern tone: "You two, no one has ever seen an old ghost, understand?"
Since Di Yong knew that Tian Qi had a golden seal, he obeyed wholeheartedly: "Yes, the little one has never been to the prison, and he has never seen anyone else. ”
The prison head nodded, knowing in his heart that he couldn't afford to offend, and immediately promised: "My lord, I promise to keep my mouth shut." ”
"Let's go!" Tian Qi beckoned Gao Yuanli and the old ghost, and then turned around and left first.
Di Yong followed silently.
After everyone else left, the jailer breathed a sigh of relief, but then turned around and locked the dungeon again, and then left as if nothing had happened.
......
Siko's house.
Tian Qi took the three of them back to Si Kou Mansion, and Zhou Zhong and the other three of them disturbed and arranged Si Kou Mansion again, looking much cleaner than before.
strode to the top position and sat down, Gao Yanli stood silently behind Tian Qi.
As for the old ghost, he was wrapped in a black robe, and his body was bent to reduce his own sense of existence as much as possible.
But Zhou Zhong and the three of them looked at Tian Qi, and then at the old ghost in the black robe, they couldn't pay attention to it. After all, Tian Qi and the three of them went out for a trip, but when they came back, there was one more person they didn't know.
Finally, the three of them looked at Di Yong.
Di Yong also smiled bitterly in his heart, but he pretended not to see the eyes of the other three people.
Tian Qi looked at the four captains of the Si Kou Mansion and said, "I'm going to restart the Dengwen Drum, what do you think?"
Zhou Zhong and the four of them looked at each other, after all, now they are in charge of the right to prison and litigation, and they are divided by others, and now that Si Kou has restarted Dengwengu, wouldn't it be against the other ministers.
Di Yong looked at the other three people and looked at them again, stood up with a bitter heart, and said as tactfully as possible: "My lord, but now we don't have the right to procedural in prison, I'm afraid it's not appropriate to restart Dengwengu, right?"
"Who said that I have no rights, Si Kou is the place to redress the grievances of the people, and I will take care of other things, you can just restart Dengwen Drum with peace of mind. Tian Qi said domineeringly.
"Yes!" Di Yong and Zhou Zhong were relieved and agreed one after another.
As for offending the ministers, he seems to have offended the entire Qi court, but what does it matter, as long as the golden seal is in his hand, others will not treat him better.
In fact, he Tian Qi offended the courtiers, which was the heart of his brother Tian Jian, with a golden seal in his hand, and had close contacts with other ministers, who knows if Tian Jian would be too careful.
Then Tian Qi explained again, and let everyone go down and make arrangements.
Tian Qi got up and took the old ghost and Gao Yanli and walked slowly to the back hall, but thinking that Jinnian should be back soon, he looked at Gao Yanli and said, "Little Brother Gao, you can help me pick up Jin'er, I believe she will come back soon." ”
"Hmm!" Gao Yanli turned around and left.
Tian Qi looked at him and the old ghost left: "Old ghost, let's go too, arrange a room for you in the backyard, and live with me in the future." ”
"No need. The old ghost refused. "If you take me out of the dungeon, I will become your doorman, and how can the doorman live in the backyard with the master's house, so just arrange a room for me in the middle courtyard. ”
Tian Qi looked at the old ghost so resolutely, so he didn't shirk and let the other party decide.
The front yard is the place where he litigates and adjudicates cases, and the back yard is the private residence of the Si Kou, which has more than the vacancy of the previous Si Kou, resulting in the vacancy of the back yard of the Si Kou's Mansion is also vacant and uninhabited.
As for the middle court, it was for the rest of the people, and among them the captain of the name of the Sikou Mansion and other servants lived in it.
Tian Qi asked the housekeeper of the middle courtyard of Si Kou's Mansion to take the old ghost down to arrange the room, but he himself went to the backyard alone.
Although the backyard is uninhabited, there will be a housekeeper in the middle yard to clean it every once in a while, except for the fact that there is not much popularity and seems to be deserted, everything else is fine.
Listening to the cool backyard, a group of mermaids rushed in: "Childe, we're back!"
Tian Qi heard Jin Nian's voice and turned to look, but found that Jin Nian and Gao were separated from each other, but there were many people behind them: "Jin'er, who are you?"
"That's right. Jin Nian walked quickly to Tian Qi's side and explained: "Childe, Shizun, she is worried that you are not used to living in Sikou Mansion and eating it, so she asked me to bring some of the cooks and other servants from Yinfu over. ”
Tian Qi smiled bitterly, but remembering his mother Ji Ruxue's loving appearance, there was also a knowing smile on his face: "Okay, then Jin'er, you can take them down to arrange it!"
"Okay, Childe!" Jin Nian turned around directly and returned to the servants of the Yin Mansion: "Now Childe orders you to go with me, and I will arrange a place for you." ”
Waiting for everyone to leave, Gao gradually left and slowly sat on the stone bench in front of Tian Qi: "Young master, when I went to pick up Jinnian before, I saw Xiaoxue. ”
"Miao Yuxue?" Tian Qi said suspiciously: "Didn't she follow Nangong Bai back to the novelist, why did she come to Linzi City again?"
"I don't know. Gao Wanli shook his head. "But young master, I told you about our stay in Si Kou's Mansion, and Xiao Xue said that she also wanted to come with her to stay in Si Kou's Mansion. ”
"And how did you reply to her?"
"Young master, I didn't give her any decision. ”
Tian Qi knew that Gao Yanli wanted Miao Yuxue to live in, otherwise Gao Yanli would not mention Miao Yuxue's matter to him, "In that case, you go to her, just tell her that Sikou Mansion welcomes her arrival at any time." ”
Gao Yanli showed a hint of joy on his face: "Young master, this is not necessary, when I rejected Xiaoxue before, Xiaoxue said that after she finished dealing with things, she would come back to Sikou Mansion tomorrow." ”
"You, now you will play the first cut and then the play!" Tian Qi scolded with a smile.
Gao Yuanli was a little embarrassed, but then he retracted: "Young master, I have something to tell you..."
