Chapter Thirteen Goodbye King Qi
Yuanbao looked at Tao Jin with a gloomy face and understood in his heart that the young master was worried. He opened his mouth to say something comforting, but after thinking about it, he still couldn't say it.
How do you say it? Do you say: Young Master, don’t be afraid, even if King Qi comes to deal with you, don’t be afraid! But is this useful? It’s useless? The first time Yuanbao felt that he had no choice but to not only couldn’t help the young master, but he didn’t even know how to say something comforted.
Tao Jin was also very confused at this time, so he naturally had no intention of observing Yuanbao carefully, so he did not find the look of self-blame or even complaining about himself on Yuanbao's face. Tao Jin didn't know that because of his neglect, Yuanbao turned from an ignorant servant to an extremely shrewd shopkeeper in the future.
Sometimes people need stimulation, and without stimulation, there will be no touch in their hearts.
Because of the approval of that adult, Tao Jin did not encounter any obstacles when he brought Yuanbao to the prison.
Tao Jin saw such an ancient prison for the first time. He did not have the torture instruments he had imagined, nor did he be beaten up by the prison. The people in the prison did not say that they were so crowded. Although they could not be said to be a cell for each person, they were not far apart.
Yuanbao was a little scared at the beginning, but when he saw the prison, he let go and said, "Young Master, where is Brother Yuchi? Why haven't I seen him yet?"
Because Tao Jin and Yuanbao had just walked into the cell, they had not seen Yuchi Gong who was locked in the last cell. Both of them concentrated on finding Yuchi Gong, but they were not careful that the food box in Yuanbao's hand was suddenly taken away by someone else.
Tao Jin just felt a flash of eyes. When he looked at the food box in Yuanbao's hand, it actually came to the yamen runner's hand. The yamen runner was familiar with Tao Jin, the one who brought them to the yamen. Tao Jin naturally remembered the little "gratitude" that the yamen runner had given him! Seeing that the food box was taken away by him, he hurriedly said, "It was the lord who allowed us to deliver food to Yuchi Gong!"
The yamen runner smiled coldly and said, "Although sir, you promised you to come and deliver food, I didn't say you didn't want me to check it out, right? What if you secretly hide weapons or something, then this prison is still dangerous?"
Tao Jin understood that he was asking for trouble. He hid weapons in a small food box. I am afraid that even the dagger would be exposed when it was loaded in, and the weapons would be added!
The yamen runner looked at Tao Jin provocatively and slowly opened the food box. The fragrance of the bun immediately spread. The yamen runner's eyes lit up and looked at the bun and said, "Good boy, he actually brought something to respect me, so I accepted it with a smile!" The yamen runner said lies with his eyes open.
Tao Jin was so angry that he heard that his lungs were so angry that they were all there. They were also produced in ancient times! Yuanbao pointed at the buns, looked at Tao Jin, and then looked at the buns, and said, "Young Master, isn't that the buns for Brother Yuchi?"
After suppressing the anger in his heart, Tao Jin took a deep breath and said, "This is of course for me. After all, Yuchi Gong is our benefactor. It is also our right to call him "Master!"
The yamen runner's face changed, and he felt even more annoyed that Tao Jin was ignorant of the current affairs. He said hatefully: "Since that's the case, I have to check if there is any private matter here!" As he said that, he actually used his hand to crush the warm buns one by one, then clapped his hands, shook off the debris from his hands and said: "It's nothing to cling to others, so you can take them over!" As he said that, he handed the food box in his hand into Yuanbao's hand, but it was not handed in place. With a bang, the food box fell to the ground, and the buns in the food box were scattered everywhere.
"Oh, I'm so sorry. I've been shaking a little in the past few days!" The yamen runner looked at Tao Jin with a beating and said with a pout.
Tao Jin gritted his teeth and helped the food box up, without saying a word! Yuan Bao clenched his fists tightly. After cleaning up for a while, Tao Jin seemed to say to Yuan Bao without any emotion: "Let's go back and get some more!"
As soon as he finished speaking, he heard Tao Jin's familiar and hoarse voice coming from the innermost cell, saying, "Take the thing over, I, Yuchi Gong, have never eaten anything in my life, but just some mud, so what can I do if I get it!"
After hearing this, Tao Jin looked inside and saw Yuchi Gong stretching his head to look at them in the innermost cell. Tao Jin suppressed the grievance in his heart. He knew that the yamen runner disliked him for not handling him, but why did he handle him? What did he do for him? Could he do this just because he didn't handle him?
Holding up the food box, Tao Jin led the ingot to Yuchi Gong, and before leaving, he turned around and looked at the yamen runner deeply.
The yamen runner also saw Tao Jin looking at him, and felt a little panicked. Then he thought: I have also inquired about it. Now he is just a dilapidated house, how can he do to himself? Thinking of this, the yamen runner Wu turned his head away with a little guilty guilt, and there was only a prisoner who looked at the cell in the entire prison.
In fact, Tao Jin was so angry that he wanted to beat someone up by the yamen just now, but beating someone requires capital, so he endured it. But now he endured it does not mean that he will endure it in the future. Tao Jin is a very revengeful person.
Tao Jin and Yuanbao walked to the cell where Yuchi Gong was carrying the bun. Because the prison leader was afraid of offending the yamen runners, it was naturally impossible to open the door for Tao Jin and the others, but the railings of the prison were made of wood, which was very wide. Tao Jin opened the food box, lowered his head and handed it to the gap in the railing.
Yuchi Gong grabbed the buns that had become crumbs and said while eating them: "It's delicious! What's this?"
Tao Jin said in a muffled voice: "It's just some buns, I learned to make money!" Yuchi Gong heard it, smiled, and said without saying that until he ate all the crumbs of the buns, he said: "I have never liked you since I saw you boy, but today I like you a little!" Tao Jin looked up at Yuchi Gong, and said in his heart: I am so embarrassed today, you like me! Do you just like watching me make a fool of you?
Seeing Tao Jin's head was stuffy and he didn't say anything, Yuchi Gong patted his belly with his hand and said, "Your crumbled buns are much better than the prison rice here! If you could deliver such food to me every day, I would rather live in this prison!" After Yuchi Gong said that, he burst into laughter.
Tao Jin asked him to say this, and Yixiao felt a little more comfortable and said, "But even if you think about it, I can't help you. I have found the evidence! You should be able to come out tomorrow!"
"Oh, you actually have such ability, so I have to wait and see!" Yuchi Gong curled his lips and made an expression of distrust.
Tao Jin looked at Yuchi Gong. When he saw that he did not trust him so much, he was aroused some competitive heart in his heart and said, "You can hold on tomorrow! I won't be embarrassed!" As a result, Tao Jin removed most of the anger and anger just now, and felt much more calm.
Yuanbao and Tao Jin packed up their things and left the prison. In a side courtyard not far from the prison, the yamen runner whispered: "Master Wei, I have tested them just now. It seems that the person named Tao Jin and Yuchi Gong are not very close! However, it seems that there is a lot of connection. Yuchi Gong still has some affection for them!"
"You did it well, and this is rewarded for you!" A black shadow threw a bag to the yamen runner and said.
"I don't know what kind of grudges you have with them. Do I want me to deal with the one named Yuchi Gong!" The yamen runner took the advantage and said happily.
"Don't be troublesome!" The black shadow scolded. The yamen runner took the man's hand short and hurriedly smiled and said, "Yes! Yes!"
There was a low cough coming from the side. The yamen runner and the black shadow quickly separated. They looked around but found no one. The two nodded to each other and quickly left the side courtyard.
As night fell, there was silence everywhere, as if the whole world was sleeping. In the wine shop in the west of the city, Tao Jin didn't sleep at all the night before, so as soon as he went back, he lay down in the wing room. On the dilapidated bed, there was a new quilt exchanged for Yuanbaotao. Although it was not a brocade quilt, it was a clean quilt. Looking at everything simple, Tao Jin really felt that this was his down-to-earth life.
Although I was worried about the next day of going to the court and the trial of King Qi, I couldn't stand the fatigue and tension that had happened this day and fell asleep soon. Seeing that Tao Jin was asleep, Yuanbao also got on the small bed beside Tao Jin's bed, and soon snoring started.
Tao Jin and Yuanbao slept in one wing room, and there was also a bed in the other room, and there was also a clean bedding on the bed, which was prepared by Tao Jin and Yuanbao for Yuchi Gong.
Because in Tao Jin's heart, Yuchi Gong is no longer the future Duke whom he needs to flatter, but a sincere and reliable friend.
Tao Jin slept early and got up early. Because he didn't know when the yamen started to go to the hall, he and Yuanbao woke up and ate something, and went there.
I don’t know if someone deliberately spread it or because everyone was curious about the murder case, so after Tao Jin and the others arrived at the yamen, a group of people waiting to watch the fun came to the door not long after.
In fact, in the past, most cases of yamen trial were not before Chen or at Chen. Now, because the King of Qi is coming to the trial, the lord postponed the time for the promotion to the church for a whole hour.
Because he had been waiting for a long time, Tao Jin was a little anxious, but some people were even more anxious than him, that was the coroner. Because he was not promoted to the court, Tao Jin would not say that, and he was impatient, so he was a little anxious at this time.
However, Li Yuanji did not wait until Si time to come, but it was just a moment after Chen time.
Tao Jin saw from a distance that a man in purple clothes was gradually approaching surrounded by everyone, and knew in his heart that this was Li Yuanji. Although according to the rules, people without official ranks should bow their heads, Tao Jin secretly looked up because of curiosity.
Li Yuanji was wearing purple ball flower silk forged, with a jade belt, a tall figure, a long face, and a pair of eyes looked a little narrow because of squinting. His nose was a bit hooked and his mouth was tightly pursed. It was not a good match for him. Tao Jin had a comment on the King of Qi Li Yuanji in his heart. But he never thought that Li Yuanji's peeking action had been seen by Li Yuanji.
"Tao Jin, what's the point of peeking at me?" A slight or heavy sentence was spoken from Li Yuanji's mouth.
