Qi Jiu snorted, and when he woke up, he vaguely saw a red-faced figure. His mind froze for a while, and Shangguan Yichuan said calmly, "Are my hands easy to touch? Huh?"

Only then did I realize that I was holding someone's hand, rubbing and rubbing.

oh~~

Undoubtedly embarrassed, Qi Jiu patted the back of Shangguan Yibuki's slender hand, put it back on his own lap and arranged it.

"My lord, this level is not considered a nuisance to officials, right? Hehe..."

It seems that he still can't think of anything, the starlight in Shangguan Yibui's eyes fell, and he smiled indifferently, "Of course not, but if I don't go to Mingzhou Prison, you will delay your official duties."

What should be the crime?

Qi Jiu jumped off the bed in an instant, walked quickly to the silver basin for washing, soaked her face in the water, wiped her face with a towel, and quickly put on a spring green gauze shirt.

"My lord, let's go!"

Qi Jiu dressed brightly and green on purpose, he thought, dress more cheerfully, and Shangguan Yiqiu would forgive him immediately when he saw that he was full of life.

Shangguan Yichuan looked at it, and without comment, he turned around and led Qi Jiu out of the bedroom.

Standing behind the courtyard, Qi Jiu was very surprised, "My lord, this courtyard doesn't seem to be very similar to the one on Yanchi Island?"

Naturally, Shangguan Yichui ignored him and walked away like the wind without authorization.

Qi Jiu started to trot, and at the end of the courtyard, a small pagoda shaped like a mandala flower gradually appeared in his eyes.

Qi Jiu was weird, "My lord! The Pomo Naked Mother Tower has become smaller... There are so many..."

This is also natural.Shangguan Yichuan still ignored him, the hem of his clothes fluttered, burning like a cluster of fire.

Along the way, the disciples dressed in light-colored carp brocade clothes saw the red and green sprinting back and forth, stopped to worship one after another, bowed their heads and whispered, when did Lord Shangguan come to Mingzhou.

Walking out of the vermilion arched fish gate, Qi Jiu stepped on the flat road with ox carts, horses and donkey carts, and the carts and carts were passing by.How lively.

Qi Jiu looked back again, and the Gongyumen that came out concealed itself, turning into red tiles and white walls.

Shangguan Yiqiu conjured up two tall horses with excellent coat color out of nowhere, and said, "We are already in the territory of Mingzhou, more than [-] miles away from the holy city of Xian'an, which is the northern threshold connecting the Suwumu Desert in the Northern Zhou Dynasty. It is known as 'the wind blows and the sand shakes the moon'."

"The Demon-Breaking Naked Mother Tower has shadow towers all over the Northern Zhou Dynasty, which can quickly move the people in the mother tower to any place. Therefore, I took you into the mother tower last night just to shorten the time and come to Mingzhou one step earlier."

so amazing.

Qi Jiu looked at the street again, and it was indeed mixed with tall Bactrian camel teams, as well as some men and women of different races with curly hair reaching their waists and shoulders, wearing colorful robes, mixed in twos and threes among ordinary people, especially conspicuous.

Qi Jiu touched her bun, then looked at Ruxue's skin, and couldn't help but look at the passing men and women of different races.

Just happened to meet two young and beautiful enchanting women, their eyes were like blue crystals, their long hair was fluttering, their waists were as soft as flowers and snakes, and they stared at Shangguan Yibuki's face with a smile, their eyes were presumptuous and unrestrained Hot and unabashedly hot.

"My lord, we should go."

Qi Jiu pulled the reins of the horse in Shangguan Yibui's hand with a muffled sound, and was about to step on the stirrup with one foot, but his legs were not long enough, so he had to stand on tiptoe.

Shangguan Yichuan chuckled, lifted his hands from his hips, and Qi Jiu used his strength to turn over and straddle the horse.

Afterwards, Shangguan Yichuan quickly turned around and rode on the high horse like a flowing cloud. His movements were skillful and elegant, and he almost finished harvesting the long and short eyes around him.

Qi Jiu raised the whip, wanting to urge the horse to go fast, Shangguan Yichui pulled the whip from his hand first, "You can't run horses in the market, you should hurt innocent people, it's more appropriate for me to lead you away." Arrested Qi Jiu again Nine horse bridles.

Qi Jiu was ignorant, let him ride the horse in front, and his own horse followed behind, chewing on the meaning of his words over and over again, and asked boldly, "Sir, should you lead the horse or me?"

Shangguan Yichuan cautiously avoided the pedestrians on the road, and said meaningfully, "How upright you are, naturally you are leading the horse."

Qi Jiu shut up.

His eyes scanned every line of sight secretly staring at Shangguan Yibuki one by one, pulled out the long hairpin in his hair, and unfolded it as a sphenoid wing knife, pretending to dig out the dirt in his nails, but actually using the sharp blade as a mirror, with the help of Mingzhou's brilliant The sun is like a spear, shining back and forth, smashing all the thieves' eyes who were watching the beauty of the adults one by one.

Shangguan Yichuan accidentally saw the passers-by on both sides, he covered his face with his sleeves and looked back at him in surprise.

Qi Jiu continued to pick out her nails, naturally.

Shangguan Yichui made it clear at a glance, "Put away the sphenoid wing knife, I'm going to urge the horse, so as not to cut off your fingers." As he spoke, the horse was stabbed by the stirrup, and it really walked a little faster. .

After leaving Mingzhou City, they don't need to lead their horses to avoid others, each of them sticks to each other, the horses are as fast as the wind, and within three hooves they arrive at Mingzhou Prison outside the city.

Shangguan Yibuki didn't need to reveal his identity, the guards outside the prison only had to take a look at his official uniform, and everyone knew that the deadly person was coming, so they hurriedly hung down the long bridge and lined up to welcome Lord Lingshou of Lijinmen.

Shangguan Yichui led Qi Jiu through the prison gates, and Shi Shicai, the prison secretary who oversees Mingzhou Prison, wore an official uniform, led his cronies, and came out to welcome the distinguished guests grandly.

No more nonsense with them, Shangguan Yichuan said bluntly, he needed Mr. Shi to find out all the records of prisoners with the surname Long in the past 20 years, and ordered him to pass on the veteran jailer in the prison. Who remembers a nickname? Prisoner of the old deaf man.

According to the instructions, after searching for about two hours, finally a jailer surnamed Zhang vaguely remembered that Mingzhou Prison did admit a prisoner called the old deaf man ten years ago. There is no way of knowing whether he is dead or alive.

The most regrettable thing is that three years ago, the Umusu Desert was raging with sandstorms, and the storehouse containing the rosters of prison recruits was hit by the storm, and a corner collapsed, blowing away many important rosters. Today's Master Shi.

Mingzhou Prison is one of the major prisons in Northern Zhou Dynasty. The number of prisoners in custody is large and mixed. Because the Empress needs manpower to control the erosion of the Umusu Desert, many domestic recidivists are detained in this prison, and they need to work every day. Drought-tolerant vegetation is extensively planted on the border of the desert, which can be described as a complete change.

Shangguan Yibui frowned in deep thought, without a detailed record of the recruiting roster, he couldn't find out where the old deaf man came and went, and he couldn't exactly grasp the source of the curse tablet and the silver pot with the rhinoceros cup pattern.

He has carefully observed the overall structure of Mingzhou Prison, it can be called a prison, unbreakable, how can it be easily dragged down by the storm, there must be some hidden secrets in it.

Shangguan Yiqiu had nothing to worry about, his bright eyes swept across Prisoner Shi's cheek, and Prisoner Shi's face turned red, and he looked at the cheek of the jailer surnamed Zhang. His reaction was quite normal, respectfully He lowered his head and never looked at him.

Then he gave Qi Jiu a wink, and Qi Jiu immediately followed behind him. Shangguan Yi Chuan finally asked the jailer surnamed Zhang, "Do you remember how old that old deaf man is?"

"Should be in his early fifties."

He asked again, "Do you still remember when the old deaf man was released?"

The jailer surnamed Zhang replied, "Kui Yuan left in the ninth year."

"Very good," Shangguan Yibui nodded with satisfaction, "No wonder you remember it so clearly. It was only three years ago, and no one can forget it."

He smiled lightly and turned to the red-faced Prisoner Shi. Prisoner Shi was about [-] years old and in his prime, his face was getting fleshy and greasy. His majestic black eyes matched Shangguan Yichu's aggressive gaze. After interleaving, the flicker cannot be extracted.

Shangguan Yi laughed, "I just asked casually. Since there is such a person, it means that Dongfo did not lie to me."

He said again, "When did the Prison Secretary Shi come to Renming State Prison? His face is very sharp, and he has never seen it in the court." He took out the white gloves that he carried with him and put them on his hands carefully.

Prison Secretary Shi was born in a family of officials and eunuchs, he had only a few years of official career, and he was a fat servant of the prison secretary when he first took office. Today, he saw Li Jinmen's plume head for the first time, but Shangguan Yibuki's beautiful name is outside, and his ears are almost numb from hearing it.

Humanity is: flowery carp, gorgeous pool, lotus noodles, golden scale skin, real pearls hidden in emerald bones, exquisite mind and more holes, flowery carp, colorful pool yi, lip band, tail band, mane shakes like a man Blood, drowning in red water to increase one innocent, is a very colorful and negative character.

But looking at the other party's harmony and harmony, the Prison Secretary couldn't help but feel his heart flutter slightly, and said, "It was also the ninth year of Kuiyuan."

Shangguan Yi blew, no wonder... covering Qi Jiu's gaze with his whole body, he punched Prison Shi's tall and straight nose with a fist, blood spattered instantly, and the bridge of his nose was completely broken.

Prisoner Shi covered his bleeding nose, not daring to let out a miserable cry, and the corners of his eyes were bleeding continuously, staring at him in fear, how could it be well, but he was beaten severely?

The face of the jailer surnamed Zhang was spattered with warm blood, and his straight waist involuntarily bent upwards to Guan Yiqiu.

Shangguan Yichui still blocked Qi Jiu, not letting him come forward, slowly waved, and said to the jailer surnamed Zhang, "You have such a good memory, if you think about it again, did the old deaf man leave before Mr. Shi took office, or after?"

"After, after, definitely after." The jailer surnamed Zhang repeatedly confirmed that he imposed strict criminal laws on prisoners in prison, but he had never used the method of smashing a person's face with a punch.

Shangguan Yichuan took off his gloves and threw them on the ground, "Help your lord to heal his face, and make sure he doesn't look sideways and his face doesn't turn red."

Only then did Prison Secretary Shi realize that he had violated Shangguan Yichui's taboo and shouldn't have stared at his face. He was also dumb and ate Coptis chinensis when he was beaten, and he couldn't tell what he was suffering.

Shangguan Yichui patted Qi Jiu, who was startled slightly, and turned his head to signal him to leave. Qi Jiu followed and turned his head. Prisoner Shi held his face, and with the support of the jailer, he screamed miserably.

I thought to myself that my lord is really powerful, he can bite whoever he wants, and he can smash whoever he wants, and he can't help but feel that his future is worrying.

Following anxiously for a long time, Shangguan Yibuki has already boarded the highest "Zhanmo Terrace" in Mingzhou Prison. Looking to the north, the Umusu Desert is vast and boundless. Apart from the majestic song sung by the scorching sand and wind, it should be more about the limited life. backtracking and thinking.

Nearby, a lush green vegetation belt traverses from east to west, obviously blocking the ruthless erosion and engulfment of the desert, and guarding the safety of the territory.

The figures of the crooked prisoners in the forest are as small as beans, and they can no longer see clearly. They just feel that these people should be given a point of merit in the vast project, even if they have done extremely bad things.

Shangguan Yichuan took a deep breath of the dry air of the desert, and pointed to a certain corner of the desert.

"Ajiu! Look!" It seemed that someone would appear from the direction of his finger.

Qi Jiu squinted his eyes and looked carefully, the vast sea of ​​sand was like tumbling golden waves of wheat, showing desolation and despair everywhere.

"My lord, there is nothing."

"I said yes!" Shangguan Yichui grabbed Qi Jiu's hand, wrapped it in his arms, and hugged him tightly in front of him.

"That place has a memory that I will never forget," Qi Jiu felt his throat roll, and his eyes stared at the center of the sand sea again unconsciously.

Too bad your memory won't be there anymore.Shangguan Yichuan thought about it, and unconsciously chanted, "I have a tiger in my heart, smell the rose carefully." Bowing his head, he sniffed the breath in Qi Jiu's hair, feeling extremely itchy and lazy.

……

The kid in green trembled visibly, "Sir, then why did you beat the jailer, you are both in the staff, if it gets to the ears of the empress, will you be punished?"

Qi Jiu's concern made him happy, and Shangguan Yichuan smiled brightly, "I hit him to give him a chance to be reborn, and it was also a kind of warning. I don't think he would dare to write a story to tell me right and wrong." There is a kind of domineering logic. .

Qi Jiu also laughed, "Actually, it's to blame. Prison Secretary Shi is only half to blame, and the other half is to blame the adults for being beautiful..."

Uh……

Feeling that the other party's gaze was lingering, Qi Jiu naturally covered her body, and said in a low voice, "Your Excellency, cover your face completely, so there will be no more disturbing eyes around you..."

Oh? Shangguan Yichuan picked a lock of long hair that was leaking from his bun, and played with it between his fingers, "I covered my face completely, what are you looking at?"

Uh……

Qi Jiu quickly covered her nose, "The villain dares to speak nonsense, my lord, please forgive me."

Shangguan Yichuu laughed, with a sense of joy that his language had the upper hand.Lips and teeth mercilessly said, "According to what the jailer said, the old deaf man was imprisoned in Mingzhou Prison ten years ago, and he was released three years ago."

"According to the "Law Code" of the Northern Zhou Dynasty, anyone who bears the crime of being imprisoned for seven years can only be robbed. I think the two artifacts he passed on to Dongfo are worthless, but they should be stolen goods."

"As a habitual thief, he was able to bring these two things into prison safely, which shows that these two things are of great significance. There are only two explanations for transferring the treasures on his body to others. The first one is that he really likes this apprentice Dongfo , send him sincerely."

"The second is to deliberately shift the target, and leave the troublesome things to be dealt with by others."

"I think the second explanation is more reasonable. Suppose someone was looking for him at that time, and he also came to Mingzhou Prison. In order to avoid the attention of that person, he can leave easily after sending the things to Dongfo."

Qi Jiu thought carefully about Shangguan Yibuki's conjecture, "Does your lord think that someone helped the old deaf man leave?"

Shangguan Yibui looked around the entire prison, "Look at this place, it's not airtight, and you can't escape with your wings. How could it be possible for the storm to destroy the file library storing the roster at will? It may be even more artificial."

"Furthermore, the old deaf man was only released after Prison Secretary Shi took office. Since the recruiting roster has been destroyed, why didn't Secretary Prison Shi refuse to order someone to make a new one during this period, so as to check for omissions and fill in the gaps?"

Qi Jiu suddenly realized, "Your Excellency, you mean that Prison Secretary Shi was bribed to deliberately not leave any records about the old deaf man, right?"

Shangguan Yichuan nodded, "I pretended to ask a few irrelevant questions to make the two of them relax, and then punched Prisoner Shi to make the jailer surnamed Zhang speak the truth."

"It can be seen from this that the background of this old deaf man is indeed worth investigating. It seems that the boy in Dongfo can't just give up."

When he looked back, Qi Jiu continued to hold his nose, his eyes were staring at him carefully, the tea soup in his eyes was almost overflowing.

Shangguan Yiqiu immediately changed his face: showing such an idiot-like expression and still refusing to give in, the worst one has always been you.

Qi Jiu said cautiously, "My lord, I'm not looking at your face, I'm worshiping you." Don't hit me in the face.

Shangguan Yichui couldn't help laughing again, "Okay, okay, you have a soft tongue and a sweet tongue...Dangjin will find you out one day, and wrap it around your neck more than three times."

The author has something to say: If you have a tiger in your heart, sniff the rose carefully.It is a classic line from the masterpiece "To Me, Past, Present and Future" by the British poet Sigriff Sassoon.The original sentence is "Inmethetigersniffstherose." The poet Yu Guangzhong translated it as: "With a tiger in my heart, I sniff the rose carefully."It means that the tiger will also sniff the rose carefully, and the busy and lofty ambition will be subdued by the gentleness and beauty, and feel the beauty in peace.It talks about the masculine and feminine sides of human nature.
