Chapter 205

"Shout what, shout what, you should be in your own back garden!" Two jailers stormed in, slapped the prison door with their scabbard, and the dust above the prison bar fell.

Qin mubai was just waiting to say a few words to Chen Yan when he was interrupted. Chen Yan's cell is far away, and the light in the cell is dark, so she can't see her face clearly.

It's just the voice. I'm determined not to admit my mistake!

"Be honest, you are not allowed to cross your head and ears in the cell, otherwise it's not good to be alone in the iron cell!" The jailer yelled at Qin mubai and Li Ke, spat a few words with hatred, and left with a cursing.

Qin mubai and Li Ke give each other a look, and they scatter and sit down. Chen Yan doesn't speak any more.

The two understood each other and went to the other prisoners in their cell to ask.

"Brother, you've been locked up in it for a long time, haven't you?" Qin mubai asked a unkempt and skinny prisoner sitting in the corner.

The prisoner didn't move. He turned over and glanced at Qin mubai with cold eyes. Not a word.

Qin mubai thought for a moment and said, "I have friends in the Yamen. If my friends come to see me later, I can ask him to tell Gaozi to treat you well and get you some delicious food. As long as you like. Talk to me. "

"He said The prisoner came in a little spirit, licked his dry lips, and whispered hoarsely.

"How did you get caught and how long have you been here?" Qin mubai asked.

"In the autumn of last year, there was a water devil on the other side of the Xihe canal, which knocked over several official boats that paid grain taxes. I was greedy for a moment and picked up a few packages of grain. When I came back, I was arrested as a water devil. " Said the prisoner. "Most of the people in this cell are related to water ghosts. Isn't that how you came in? "

Qin mubai was surprised to pick an eyebrow: "dozens of people in this cell are all related to the water ghost case?"

"Yes. But I promise, no one is a real water devil. " Said the prisoner.

"Why?" Qin mubai asked in surprise.

"Hum!" The prisoner sneered, "because they can't or won't catch the real water ghosts. We have to catch some innocent people to answer the crime. He's been in prison for months and half a year, and he's released before the fall. "

"Catch and let go?" Qin mubai was puzzled and said, "why did they do this?"

"It's very simple! Xiangzhou has been haunted by water ghosts for so many years, and no assassin can wipe them out. But we have to suppress it. If you can't catch the water ghost, just catch some people into the prison. If you can't, it's better. If you can't, it's OK to catch the wrong person. In any case, the officials above have found out that they have done something and have not had a free meal, have they? " The prisoner cursed in a low voice, "dog officials have been used to doing this for a long time! Those who are unlucky are caught as water ghosts. We locals all know that if we come in and die, we can get out alive. If we can't survive, we'll get a knife in the autumn. Young man, I think you are also the son of a rich family. Don't be unable to bear the punishment. OK, I'll say so much. Later, get me a fat chicken and a pot of good wine

"It's easy to say." After a pause, Qin Mu asked again, "the woman in the innermost room is the one who talked to us just now, do you know?"

"Know, know! Who doesn't know her? She's famous. It's said that she's a real water ghost! " The prisoner was still a little nervous and said in a low voice with some fear, "when the prisoners scolded, they said that this woman killed more than a dozen people on the river, and the whole river would be dyed red. If it wasn't for the efforts of the state government to seize her. Oh, it was creepy when she was caught. She was covered with a black cloth bag, tied up in all kinds of clothes and bleeding all over. It took three or five men to catch her. It is said that this female water ghost has the ability to communicate with heaven and is as sharp as killing a chicken! They call her the female devil head and the black night fork

Qin mubai felt a little blocked when he heard that - Chen Yan is a water devil in the west river channel, isn't she?!

"How can such a serious crime not be handed over to Chang'an criminal department for sentencing and interrogation?" Qin mubai asked.

"How can I know? I'm not an official!" The prisoner said, "maybe it's because the new governor of the state has not yet taken office Well, don't ask me so much. That's all I know. Remember, a chicken and a pot of good wine, and you'd better have a stewed Morchella... "

After asking, Qin mubai returned to his previous position near the prison and communicated with Li Ke. Most of the news they heard was similar.

"So to speak. The Yamen of Xiangzhou prefecture has been used to inaction and prevarication all the year round. " Li Ke said angrily, "it's really strange that there are such bad gangsters in such a peaceful and prosperous age!"

"It's hard to avoid the intermingle of good and bad in a forest, and it's no surprise that there are all kinds of rivers in the sea." Qin Mu Bai twisted his brows and said, "the water ghosts in the west river channel are so despotic that they must be exterminated. Before that, we have more things to do.""Not bad. Xiangzhou's generals are so corrupt and incompetent, which is beyond my expectation! I don't believe it. With the power of a state, we can't deal with just a few water ghosts? It is clear that someone deliberately opened the door of convenience and connived at collusion. " Li Ke said, a sharp way flashed in his eyes, as if to kill him, "don't be found out by me, or you will not forgive him!"

"If Like in Jiangzhou, it was a group of officials who committed crimes? " Qin mubai shook his head with a bitter smile. "In my opinion, Xiangzhou has become a common phenomenon. The government and the military have some tolerance and connivance for water ghosts. Between them. There must be interest exchanges. As long as this point is found out, it is not difficult to solve the problem from the root

"It makes sense." Li Ke nodded, "this trip to Weifu is really fruitful - by the way, how did Chen Yan become a water ghost?"

"I don't know!" Qin Mu Bai lightly called out a breath to wring to wring eyebrow, "prison son and prisoner's words can't believe completely.". I firmly believe that Chen Yan is not such a character. How can she be reduced to a water ghost who is full of evils? I'll find out about it after I go out. At least I want to give her justice

Li Ke micro ran smile: "you seem very nervous, but also some heartache?"

Qin mubai was stunned and turned his back against the wooden post of the prison door. Ignore him.

"Ha ha!" Li Ke said with a strange smile, "you're really in trouble. If you come to jail, you can meet your confidant!"

"Bang bang -"

the jailer rushed in again, pounded on the post and roared, "are you really going to kill me? Can you believe that you will be thrown into the iron cell now to suffer a living sin

Li Ke curled his mouth, put his hands on his chest and sat down without saying a word, but he still laughed at Qin mubai.

After a long time. The darker the light in the cell, it was about evening. The jailer came to deliver the meal, and several hard steamed buns that could be smashed to the head were thrown in and directly fell into the haystack. Although they were hungry, Qin mubai and others could not eat the food that the pigs ignored, so they only drank some water. The steamed bread was given to other prisoners.

"It's time for Quan Wanji and his party to go to the assassin's mansion." Li Ke leaned his head against the wall, licked his lips and touched his stomach. "I'm really hungry..."

Qin mubai made fun of him and said, "how about this crime? Weifu private visit, but came to the cell, smelly and dirty and hungry taste. Don't you like it? Ha ha

Li Ke grinned angrily and awkwardly: "well, I don't want to eat a good reception. I'm really fed up living in this prison Er! As soon as I say eat words, my stomach will rumble

Xue Rengui and others all laughed. Yuwen Hongtai couldn't bear it for a long time, so he sat up and shook the prison door hard and yelled: "prison son! Dog, son of a bitch. Call your man in charge

The whole cell seemed to shake slightly, and many people could not help covering their ears.

Yuwen Hongtai is still roaring, struggling to shake, but not half a prison son to take care of him. He was so annoyed that he used his body like a black bear to hit the cell door. After seven or eight times, he really knocked the iron bolt and nail loose. A force was applied to remove the whole cell door.

"Ha ha ha!" Yuwen Hongtai exclaimed triumphantly, "open, open! Go out and find a restaurant. It's good to eat and drink! "

All the prisoners were stunned. At present, many people began to shout: "hero, hero! Let us out, too

Originally didn't think Yuwen Hongtai can do anything, so he tossed, now Li Ke is also surprised. "Yu Wen Hong Tai, please come and sit down! Originally innocent, but now you are escaping from prison. It's the same felony of beheading and exile as colliding with the government! "

Qin mubai also laughs: "sunspot, why don't you help yourself a little bit and rush out of the cell to get some good wine and food for us to eat together?"

"Er..." Yu Wen Hong Tai was stunned, threw the prison door and sat back in a hurry, scolded and said, "I want to keep this head for a few more days, in case it is cut off, it will never grow out."

"Ha ha!" There was a burst of laughter, and the cell was full of laughter.

Li Ke said with a bitter smile: "well, let you make some noise. Maybe someone will recognize us. Let's go out Oh, I'm really looking for trouble! It's not fun to visit in micro clothes! "

Qin Mu Bai laughed and thought: Li Ke is still so good at playing tricks, and now he has learned to play smoke bombs. He deliberately behaved in a way that made people laugh In fact, he is more stable than anyone else. That's the point. He is the opposite of Li Shimin. Li Shimin is a king. Even if he does something wrong, he can't admit it openly. However, Li Ke never forgets to disguise himself by showing weakness and playing treasure.

When the father's king comes to the world, he will be the son's introvert and hide his talent Maybe Li Shimin 20 years ago. Is that what Li Ke looks like now?

Several guards at the entrance of the prison gate were terrified. They held their swords and swords as if they were facing the enemy. Others ran to report for help and said that someone wanted to escape!

In the main hall of the governor's office, Shi Quan Wan Ji, the new governor of Xiang, sat upright. Talk to the local officials of Xiangzhou. Just then, the jailer came to report and described the situation in the prison. Quan Wanji immediately patted his thigh and jumped up: "ah, it must be his highness and others! The one who wants to break into prison and escape must be Yuwen Hongtai! How many people like him in the world"Ah?" All the officials were shocked, "Your Highness, in Xiangzhou prison?"

Wu facao, who had previously arrested Li Ke and others, turned pale: "no, no...!"

"What are you waiting for? Go to the cell quickly!"

……

In a hurry, there was a lot of noise, and a group of people poured into the cell. Under the torch's irradiation, Quan Wanji's face turned red at first, and then turned black instantly.

"You've done a good job!" He roared.

"Ah? Is it really impossible for your highness? " Wu facao and a group of people were completely numb.

"Why don't you let someone out?"

Yuwen Hongtai rushed out first, glared at a pair of copper bells and roared: "that thief named Zhao Chong, come out for grandfather! Grandfather will tie you to the back of the horse and go all over the city

"Woo - spare your life, hero!" Zhao Chong panicked. Kneel down and kowtow. Others also fell to their knees in panic.

Qin mubai and Li Ke walked out of the prison, looked at each other with a smile and shook their heads.

Vulgar officials, mediocre officials How can Xiangzhou's officials be so bad?!

Li Ke did not get angry on the spot, but gently waved his hand. To Quan Wanji: "Quan Changshi, let them all wait in the main hall. What's the matter? Let's go there and talk about it. Don't show up in front of these prisoners. "

All the officials trembled in order, and they complained bitterly: miserable!! The more silent we are, the more angry we may be. It seems that we are going to suffer!

After that, Li Ke left with Yin Yang and Xue Rengui.

Yuwen Hongtai is still full of anger. He stares at Zhao Chong and refuses to let go. He just wants to lift him up and beat him up.

A group of officers and generals got up from the ground and walked out with necks.

"Sunspot, you stay." Qin mubai did not go, said.

"Oh, good." Yu Wenhong kicked Zhao Chong's buttocks twice, and nearly threw himself into a dog's dung on the spot.

"Ha ha! Look, you're still yelling at us, you son of a bitch! Pooh Yuwen Hongtai this just solved gas, hate spit scold. Zhao Chong got a kick and didn't dare to return. He ran away.

Qin mubai was still standing in the prison. He took a look at the innermost part of the prison and hooked his fingers to the two prisoners who were shivering and shivering.

"This Young master, what can I do for you? " Gaozi didn't know how to call Qin mubai, so he had to be cautious and timid.

"This is Qin mubai and general Qin, the new commander of Zhechong, the son-in-law of the emperor and the third son of Qin Shubao, the Duke of Yipin state." Yuwen Hongtai didn't have a good spirit to shout.

The eyes of the two prisoners were straight on the spot, and when they opened their mouths, they almost drooled.

Qin mubai was amused, shook his head and said with a smile: "you immediately open the innermost cell for me and invite the female prisoner out. I want to talk to her. In addition, get a fat chicken and a pot of good wine for the prisoner in that cell. Well, it's better to make another pot of stewed mutton belly."

"Er..." Prison son Leng a Leng, seem to have no reaction to come over.

"Why, is there a problem, or can't it be done?" Qin mubai raised his eyebrows.

"Villain will do it right away!"
