Chapter 425 "Obedience"

Ever since he was falsely accused as a suspect, he has always followed the rules of the Baoling County Yamen Prison.All food and lodging are in the prison, no running around, this is the first day of the first lunar month, Duan Fei saw that the prison is really boring, starting from dawn, the cheerful voices of passers-by outside came from outside the prison, it is really amazing to Duan Fei Like a child locked up at home, he couldn't sit still.

Furthermore, the old man said that the first day of the first month is a sign of omens. If he is locked up in the prison on the first day of the first month, wouldn't he be locked up for a whole year?
Although the jailers in the Baoling County Government Prison don’t have messy hobbies, and they don’t even bother to torture the prisoners. Except for the unpalatable food, the rest are good, but Duan Fei thought that if he was locked in the prison all year round, he would be fine. How?So he randomly found a servant to take his place for a day, and ran to the street.

It's just unexpected that he ran out for less than an hour. Ji Chongyan, who hadn't seen half a person on weekdays, brought someone to kill him at this time, and then arrested himself without thinking.

Struggling all the way to no avail, he was escorted back to the Baoling County Yamen Prison. When he was about to be locked in, Duan Fei finally tried his best to open his mouth wide and spit out the stuffed cloth ball, and greeted Ji Chongyan.

"Ji Chongyan, your uncle!"

"I don't have an uncle." Ji Chongyan glanced at him lightly, and said, "You can scold my father."

Duan Fei: "..."

Although Master Ji was indeed very upset that day, he would not do such things as making Ji Chongyan happy.

You can't be scolded, then... Glancing at Jiang Shaoyan's master and servant who followed behind Ji Chongyan, Duan Fei looked around, and saw that there was no one else except the servants, a good man... he should give in when he should be soft, so he was decisive He begged for mercy: "Miss Jiang Si, I was the one talking nonsense just now, you can eat anything, I'm out of control!"

He must have had a brain twitch at first, Ji Chongyan is like Miss Jiang Si, why should he care what other people eat.

"You can punish me any way you want. Today is the first day of the new year. I have been locked up for so long, and the two masters of your family have also come out. If I stay any longer, I will be suffocated..." Duan Fei He turned to Jiang Shaoyan decisively, and squeezed out two tears in a timely manner to show his weakness.

Ji Chongyan is very cruel and merciless. Compared with him, even Miss Jiang Si, who is also not much better, is much more pleasing to the eye.

"It's the laws of the Great Zhou that put you in prison, and it has nothing to do with me." Jiang Shaoyan said, reminding him, "The Miss Wang family is gone."

"What does it matter to me that she disappeared? I don't even remember what she looked like, so what does it have to do with me?" Duan Fei wanted to cry without tears, "I was so full that I went to tie her up and arrest her!"

"That can't be helped. The Wang family in Luoyang said you did it." Jiang Shaoyan spread her hands disapprovingly, "All the notes have been handed to Lin Shaoqing."

Duan Fei was even more aggrieved when he said this: "He should not answer the call, and if he does, then check it quickly, and clear me after checking!"

"Investigate as you say?" Ji Chongyan on the side said at the right time, "Dali Temple is not opened by your Duan family. Do you know how many cases and notes are piled up on Lin Yan's desk? There is no turn in the queue yet. your turn."

Duan Fei: "..."

What a jade-faced judge, what a reputation!Nothing to do with such a loud reputation?Anyone who feels that there is a grievance must pass a note to him.

"You wait in line and wait for Lin Yan to investigate the case, don't run around." Ji Chongyan waved his hand after finishing speaking, signaling the guards to arrest Duan Fei, "Recently the world is very chaotic, what happened to you, why should I agree with you?" Your father confessed?"

"How do you explain to your father?" These words were really sincere, and both inside and outside the words were meant for his own good.Duan Fei couldn't help grinding his teeth, and understood another meaning behind Ji Chongyan's words: If he ran around again, Ji Chongyan would definitely write a letter to his father to complain.

It's too bad!Duan Fei gave him an aggrieved look, and was "helped" in by two guards.

Because Duan Fei ran out to go shopping today, Ji Chongyan specially assigned two of his own men to enter the Baoling County Yamen Prison: "He has a lot of guards, and even ordinary officers can't watch him. Keep an eye on him, don't let this suspect Then I ran out into the street in broad daylight."

The two guards of Ji Chongyan answered "yes" and stepped into the prison of Baoling County Yamen.

Regarding this, everyone in the Baoling County Yamen did not have any objections: the previous guard named Zhuifeng had already dialed in, so what's the matter with the prince calling again?Any questions?

After dealing with Duan Fei who fled, Ji Chongyan turned to look at Jiang Shaoyan: "Miss Jiang Si is shocked!"

Jiang Shaoyan shook her head: she was not surprised to see Duan Fei wandering in the street except for a little surprise, it was Ji Chongyan who she asked Xiao Wu to find just now.

After all, except for Ji Chongyan, she can't think of anyone else who can make Duan Fei stay in the prison honestly for so long.

For a moment of trance, Xiangli and Xiaowu were no longer around.Jiang Shaoyan vaguely remembered that these two people had just shouted for "Come out", and then left together.

Run together to "chugong"?This excuse... Jiang Shaoyan couldn't bear to look directly at it.

But it seems that the people around her feel very good about Ji Chongyan, otherwise they wouldn't have done such a thing of "going out together" together.

Not only her, everyone also thinks he is good, which shows that he is really good.

Jiang Shaoyan looked at Ji Chongyan whose whole body seemed to be coated with a layer of light under the sunlight, pursed his lower lip, and said in as calm a tone as possible: "When will the son return to Yancheng?"

"Tomorrow." Ji Chongyan glanced at her and said, "Some cases should be moved."

The girl nodded, "Yes", paused, and then said: "If there is a letter from the Yang family that needs to be answered, the prince can find someone to tell me. I am either in Baoling or Gusu these days."

Ji Chongyan nodded, the Yang family's affairs are important, so naturally they cannot be careless.His eyes fell from the girl's bun with double rings to the girl's eyebrows, and the little flower stickers seemed to be a little more charming than before. Ji Chongyan thought for a while, and said: "Grandfather wrote to you a few years ago. I’m going to Jiangnan Road, and I’m halfway there now, and I guess I’ll be there around the fifth day of the lunar new year.”

Does An Guogong want to come to Jiangnan Road in person?Jiang Shaoyan's heart tightened instinctively, and she was about to ask Ji Chongyan why An Guogong suddenly came to Jiangnan Road.

Ji Chongyan on the other side seemed to have guessed her thoughts first, and said, "It's nothing important, he just wants to come and see me." Before she could speak, he continued, "Yang Yan Admonishment to find a companion for the Second Highness, and I chose my third brother, Your Majesty agreed."

Ji Chongyan, who said this, said in a flat voice: "The letter from my grandfather complained against me, and then he took his annual leave and came to Jiangnan Road to relax."

Jiang Shaoyan's heart skipped a beat when she heard these words, her heart is really unpredictable!She looked at Ji Chongyan with an indifferent and calm expression, and after hesitating for a moment, she couldn't help but ask one more question: "How does Your Majesty treat you?"

An Guogong was so angry about being accompanied by His Highness the Second Highness, not because he had any opinions on the private Second Highness, but because His Majesty's move meant that His Majesty was determined to pull Anguogong's mansion into this boat.

Now that His Majesty has two sons, and the power of the Crown Prince and His Highness has not yet formed, boarding the ship at this time is definitely not a good thing, but it is very likely to become a so-called target.

If it was Yang Yan's hands and feet, then An Guogong's mansion could let go of his hands and feet to deal with Yang Yan, but this move is His Majesty's intention... Jiang Shaoyan looked at Ji Chongyan, waiting for his answer.

Ji Chongyan glanced at her and said, "Everyone in the capital knows that His Majesty loves my nephew the most."

Jiang Shaoyan understood the meaning of Ji Chong's words just by listening.

He said, 'everyone in the capital knows it'... Jiang Shaoyan hesitated for a moment, and asked him: "What about the son? The son thinks that your majesty loves your nephew the most?"

This made Ji Chongyan hesitate for a moment, and after a while, he took a deep look at her and said, "I don't know. Besides, he is the king first and then my uncle."

He has been very clear about this from beginning to end.

I do not know!This answer made Jiang Shaoyan silent again, and after a long time, she looked at Ji Chongyan and said, "Your Majesty has always been very sensible, and His Majesty likes sensible nephews."

As soon as the word "sensible" came out, Ji Chongyan's eyes on the opposite side suddenly lit up, looking at the girl's eyes became more and more amazing.

Even if he has not met His Majesty in person, he has never seen the relationship between him and His Majesty.

With just a few words, but when she opened her mouth, she said the key point.

Seeing the girl's drooping eyes and frowning expression, he moved his fingers hanging by his side, subconsciously wanting to raise his hand to smooth the wrinkles between her brows, but thinking of her reaction last night, he still put it down. hand.

One day, he will solve all her worries, and when he is done with these, he will finish talking to her what he didn't finish talking about on Jiulongling.

He looked at the girl, nodded, and said, "Miss Jiang Si is right. What His Majesty needs is a sensible nephew, or, it can be said, an obedient nephew."

Jiang Shaoyan raised her eyes to look at him, but there was no one around at this time, she looked at him, and heard herself ask him: "Will you be an obedient nephew as His Majesty wishes?"

An obedient nephew, an emperor who loves his nephew... In the first 20 years, both he and his uncle did well, but will they do so well in the future?
Ji Chongyan looked at her, and after a long silence, he slowly shook his head and said, "I don't know."

I do not know!Jiang Shaoyan took a deep breath, looked at Ji Chongyan who was standing against the light in front of him, and said nothing.

……

The annual leave of the officials of the Great Zhou Dynasty starts from the first day of the junior high school and lasts until the end of the fifteenth day.However, as far as Jiang Zhao was concerned, more than half of these fifteen days were spent in the yamen.

It's not because of the one or two money, the main reason is that the younger brother and sister in the family always give him an inexplicable feeling of being dishonest.It's from melon fields and plums, but I can't explain clearly, so he should avoid it.

There is nothing to do in the yamen during the annual leave, just come to the venue, and help with the occasional small things!
This New Year's Eve, Jiang Zhao spent a very leisurely time. In his free time, besides reading folk dialect books to pass the time, he read the letters sent back from Baoling by his family's Ayan.

Since going to Baoling, Ayan has completely abandoned those poems and wrote letters that are plain and easy to understand.This made Jiang Zhaokan heaved a sigh of relief for no reason.

He has no attainments in poetry, and sometimes he really can't understand it, and he has to look through the annotations of the poems to understand the meaning of Ayan.

A Yan said that she had a good stay in Baoling and made many friends, which reassured him.

Of course he is relieved, his family Ayan has always been the most obedient and sensible, but the two younger brothers in the family and their mother said that they went to other places to pray for blessings because of the fate of Buddha. In fact, he didn't really believe this. What's going on.

But looking at the three younger siblings who still have time to dress up, they should be fine.

After a while, Ayan should be able to return to Beijing, and the Yang family and the second room of Ji's family probably won't be able to take care of their affairs.

After all, they themselves are in a mess right now.

If you get smallpox, even if you can survive it, you should have to endure it for more than ten or twenty days, depending on whether you have other symptoms...

Even though you know that smallpox will be very itchy, you must not scratch it.

It's one thing to know, but sometimes when it really itches, I can't help scratching, and when I react, I quickly stop.But even if you close your hands quickly, you will always be scratched.

Ji Chonghuan, the second son of Ji, who had only one face left after being taken by An Guogong, had two pockmarks on his chin.But fortunately, women's powder has some uses, you can use it to wipe it off, and cover the pockmarks on your chin.

It's just that Dazhou is no different than the two Jins in the past when men also put on makeup. Ordinary men in Dazhou don't put on makeup, except for the young men in the small halls who do it.

But... Ji Chonghuan remembered that he used to laugh at those smeared men as "girly", and now it was his turn, Ji Chonghuan felt dizzy thinking about it.

Compared with the two small pits on Ji Chonghuan's chin, Second Miss Su, who has always been pampered and self-willed and can't bear hardships and itches, is a bit unlucky.

Hearing the sound of throwing things coming from the room, Mr. Su sneered and asked the servant who came in to serve: "What happened to her? Didn't the smallpox be cured?"

Smallpox is very easy to kill among children, and adults are relatively better.Second Miss Su is an out-and-out adult, and in addition to taking good care of her on weekdays, even if the Su family doesn't care about her, she will always be able to eat and make up for her, so this time the smallpox Several adults endured.

It's just that people passed by, but left some things behind.

The delicate and beautiful Second Miss Su unfortunately left slightly more pockmarks on her face than Ji Chonghuan's. Looking at the scattered pockmarks on her fair face in the mirror, it was like a pure white face. The drawing paper was stained with a lot of mud that was randomly swayed.

She stared at her already big round eyes, Second Miss Su stared at herself in the mirror, and grabbed the handkerchief in her hand to wipe her face vigorously.

She wiped very hard, and her face turned red after just one stroke, but on weekdays, there was a Second Miss Su who yelled so much when bumped, but today she still wiped her face resentfully as if she didn't feel the pain. go.

One, two, three, three... The servants and maidservants at the side looked terrified, their skin was scratched and about to bleed, and finally a maidservant who was quite talkative in front of Second Miss Su on weekdays was pushed out .

"Little... miss, don't wipe it, it's going to... bleed."

"Bleeding?" The disheveled Second Miss Su suddenly turned her head, her big round eyes looked inexplicably fierce and crazy because of her staring movements.

A scream came out from the house suddenly, and Mr. Su who was sneering outside and about to leave was startled by the scream. Although he was annoyed and hated this girl for being ignorant, he was still worried and took her away in a hurry go in.
