Chapter Seventy-Eight: Prison in Heaven
Ji Chen's thoughts flew non-stop, he wrote a letter, and he didn't even have time to meditate and breathe, he was so tired that he fell asleep unconsciously. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info
If you guess right, you'll have plenty of time to squander tomorrow.
On the second day, the sun came as promised. There were also several eunuchs in the palace.
The eunuch cleared his throat and coughed lightly twice, and Ji Chen slowly opened his eyes.
The eunuch said in a sharp voice: "Holy Command!"
The eunuch who announced the decree paused, and His Royal Highness Nine did not move, and the eunuch on the side reminded in a low voice: "Your Highness the Nine, it's time to kneel down and accept the order, don't make it difficult for Gonggong Gao, I'll just run errands later." ”
Ji Chen knelt down reluctantly, laughing in his heart, when did his father's close eunuch be so polite to him.
What Ji Chen didn't know was that in the shaking of the court today, Shang Shufu shot a handful of tears and snot to complain about the various bad deeds of the Nine Emperor Princes, if the saint did not agree, he would die on top of the main hall.
The prince of the East Palace was sweating, and the trouble caused by this younger brother had to be cleaned up by him as the imperial brother.
Da Sikong was calm and relaxed, and looked at Shang Shufu with disdain.
Let him bump, if he dares to bump, this coffin will come out. Isn't it just one son? You have married more than a dozen wives, and there are more than 20 sons, so you care about him? Don't think that the old man doesn't know, you are still a scholar and a servant of the eighth prince, and you just use the topic to play.
I want to pull the old man into the water, no way.
The people of the Eight Emperors have lotus tongues, some sing red faces, some people sing black faces, one by one, and they are constantly putting pressure on the princelings.
Da Sikong took a step forward and said loudly: "Enlighten the saint, the minister has this music!"
Weiyang Palace suddenly fell silent, silent, and even the Shang Shufu who was looking for death and life stopped crying!
......
The high father-in-law of Xuan Paper looked at the Nine Emperor Princes, how could he also be a magnificent, a talent. How could he be as Lord Shangshu said, and his son was photographed beyond recognition.
According to what Da Sikong said, it is nothing more than young and vigorous, and in order to win the color of the Oiran, he broke up unhappily.
Da Sikong didn't mention the matter of his grandson's broken hand.
Ji Chen looked at the stunned rice paper eunuch and said, "Xuan or not, I will leave without Xuan, the ground is cold, my knees are frozen, you compensate me." ”
The high father-in-law of the rice paper came to his senses, cleared his throat again, and said sharply: "The Holy Lord's edict, the Nine Emperor Princes are stubborn by nature, do not respect the number of courtesies, temporarily suppress the heavenly prison, and wait for the fall." ”
Ji Chen shook his head, it was just boring, it was similar to what he thought, and then kowtowed: "Son leads the order!"
After speaking, Ji Chen stood up and asked, "Father-in-law, is it lively in the hall today?"
Gonggong Gao was amazed and gave a thumbs up: "His Royal Highness the Ninth is really capable, the old slave has been in this palace for more than 50 years, and it is the first time I have seen a minister looking for death and life in the main hall, and today I am open-eyed." ”
Ji Chen laughed out loud and said, "I also bothered my father-in-law to take me to the prison, I am familiar with these three palaces, but where is this prison?" By the way, tell me about the interesting things in the main hall, have you ever kowtowed your head when the scholar shoots?"
Just as he was about to leave, Ji Chen remembered something and took out the letter he had written last night from his arms. threw it casually, and it happened to fall in front of Huigen Confucianism.
"Hey, Huigen, help me get this letter to my maid Red Sleeves, she'll understand when she reads it. ”
Huigen Confucian bowed and said: "Your Highness, rest assured, it's just a gesture." ”
Ji Chen shook his head, this red sleeve is real, he didn't come to look for himself last night, and he didn't know where to go to make an appointment.
There was nothing major in the letter, but he just instructed Red Sleeves to take the imperial doctor to Zuixianlou to check the pulse of his senior brother and take care of it more.
......
The front is dark and gloomy, and there are two stone stalks at the door, angry in front of the front, majestic in all directions.
Ji Chen remembered that he had inadvertently been here when he was a child, and the cold wind made him dare not take a step, and he was scolded by his father afterwards, and he copied the Tao Te Ching ten times.
Eunuch Gao bowed down and said, "Your Highness, on the road ahead, someone will come to pick you up, and the old slave will retire." ”
Ji Chen also thanked him, and then stepped into the dark prison.
What is different from imagination is that I thought that this prison would be full of mourning, and all the prisoners bitterly cried that they had been wronged.
Through the faint sunlight, I found that there were only a few people in this prison.
A few jailers in pale cyan soap uniforms were sitting together, drinking wine, humming songs, and chatting about which little peach in Chang'an was so crispy.
Seeing Ji Chen's arrival, a jailer in his forties hurriedly threw down the sunflower seeds in his hand. wiped it again, bowed down and said, "In Xia Yang Prison, I have bowed to His Highness." ”
Ji Chen quipped: "Get up, Yang Si Prison doesn't have to be polite, now I am your prisoner." ”
Eunuch Yang only felt that Ji Chen was a good person, and he didn't rely on his identity as a prince to suppress him, so he immediately thanked him and said, "Don't dare to be, don't dare to be!" By the way, which cell does Your Highness want?"
Eunuch Yang himself thought this was funny, which cell do you want? Who wants to live in a cell?
Ji Chen was stunned and smiled: "Can you still choose your own cell?"
"Of course, this prison is empty, and there is no fixed number of prisoners, of course, you choose. Supervisor Yang said and led Ji Chen to the prison.
Sure enough, it was empty.
Eunuch Yang pointed to a few cells and said: "Your Highness, look at that person, he was originally a big farmer, but unfortunately he was corrupt and perverted the law, and it is said that he made five million taels of silver. And this, originally a big star, I don't know if it's a bad brain or what, I actually watched the sky at night, saying that the prince made witches and Gu and damaged the luck of the saints. ”
Eunuch Yang made a gesture of wiping his neck, there were only six or seven prisoners here, each of whom had been an official in the court, and Eunuch Yang could also explain why.
The evidence is conclusive, and the death penalty cannot be escaped.
Supervisor Yang suddenly stopped his steps: "Your Highness doesn't have to come forward, the front is dark and damp, not as good as here." ”
As soon as the words fell, a roar erupted in the darkness.
"Old ghost, roll over to Lao Tzu, Lao Tzu wants to drink water. ”
Yang Jian looked embarrassed, signaled Ji Chen not to make a sound, and was about to turn around and leave.
"Old ghost, don't think that if you don't make a sound, Lao Tzu won't know where you are, don't gasp if you have the ability. ”
Yang Jian was deflated and walked reluctantly, and Ji Chen followed closely.
"This is the No. 1 prison of Heaven and Earth Xuanhuang, and the sloppy ghost is in the No. 1 prison of Tianzi. ”
People have names, but Eunuch Yang has been here for more than ten years, and he didn't know the name of this sloppy ghost. Coupled with himself, it's been nearly twenty years.
Strange things, other prisoners should be tried, and those who should be killed should be killed. Only this sloppy ghost, who has never been arraigned, is here like this.
Through the faint light, I finally saw the sloppy ghost, seven huge dragon head chains around it, binding hands, feet and neck, and the remaining two were pierced with lute bones.
The sloppy ghost is really sloppy, unkempt, shabby clothes, and eyes covered by purple and yellow silk.
The sloppy ghost came to Yang Jian in the blink of an eye, and the iron rope rattled behind him.
"Old ghost, you're finally here, I want to drink water, didn't you fucking hear?"
The sloppy ghost listened attentively and shouted, "What? There is a newcomer in the prison this day? Is it to assassinate the saint this time, or to flirt with the champion of the new department, could it be that you picked the flowers of which princess and concubine?"
Eunuch Yang's face was embarrassed, this sloppy ghost was like a river, and the spittle stars could drown him.
Ji Chen smiled: "How do you know that it's a newcomer?"
The sloppy ghost laughed: "This prison is the underworld, like the old ghost must be a ghost pawn, but it's a pity that these ghost pawns don't know martial arts, and their breath is not as stable as yours. ”
Ji Chen couldn't help but be in awe: "Good ear power?"
The sloppy ghost shook his head and sighed: "If you don't open your eyes for more than ten years, your ears will be like mine." ”
Eunuch Yang took water and handed it to the sloppy ghost, who drank it with his mouth up, not a drop left, and exclaimed with joy.
Ji Chen looked around: "Yang Si Prison, I live in the Xuanzi No. 1 room, close to this sloppy ghost, I also have a companion." ”
The rest of the people are so dead, they won't be alive in a few days, where will they pay attention to him.
Eunuch Yang said, "Your Highness doesn't dislike the smell of this sloppy ghost?"
Ji Chen waved his hand: "It's okay, it's better to stink to death than to suffocate to death!"
The sloppy ghost tilted his head and sniffed a few times, and said with a disgusted face: "Say I stink! ”
Ji Chen was helpless, and went to Xuanzi No. 1 Prison by himself.
