When candles are not lit in the cell, it is dark most of the time. Bai Shan's sense of time basically comes from listening to the movements of the guards.
When he heard the knocking on the door and the shouting coming from outside, he knew that it was time to have breakfast in each cell.
Nowadays, except for delivering things at noon, the police officers basically won't come to them, and they don't eat prison food anyway.
When Bai Shan heard the noise, he got up from the kang without any difficulty, washed his face, hands, and mouth, and then started to light a fire to cook noodles. They had their last meal of steamed noodles today. By noon, according to Bai Shan's summary
According to the rules, at noon today, the family should send them cooked steamed buns, sauerkraut and stewed rice.
The two are separated. When they want to eat, stir some pickled cabbage and stew them together, and then put the steamed buns on the vat. It is convenient, simple and delicious.
Manbao also got up to wash up, and then she twisted around in the middle of the cell. Because there were two people sleeping in the room, she recited the poem silently in her mind. Everything was very normal.
They thought that today was another normal day, and they would have to go to court again soon. However, not long after breakfast, Tao Yi came in with an official document, led the people to open the cell, and said to Bai Shan and the others: "Bai Shan
, Zhou Man, Xiang Chao, you can go out."
The three of them didn't expect the surprise to come so suddenly, and their eyes widened.
Tao Yi coughed lightly, "Why don't you get out quickly?"
Xiang Chao was the first to react and pointed to Xiang Ming Xue Wen, "What about my cousin?"
Tao Yi glanced at Xiang Mingxue, who was sitting on the kang, and said: "Your Majesty didn't say anything, and the adults didn't say anything either, so they have to be detained in the sky prison. Are you going to leave?"
Man Bao became entangled, "Then can I come to see him every day in the future?"
Tao Yi glanced at her and said nothing.
Bai Shan asked in another way, "Can we still come to deliver food to him at noon every day from now on?"
Tao Yi said: "Your Majesty's handwriting has no time limit."
Everyone breathed a sigh of relief, and Bai Shan gave the books in the cell to Xiang Mingxue to read, so that he would not be lonely in prison.
Man Bao only brought a few things with him and left most of his things in the cell.
Xiang Chao hesitated, "Otherwise I won't go out and stay in the prison to take care of the second young master? Can I stay?"
Xiang Mingxue said quickly: "Go out quickly, I can do it alone."
"That won't work. Your hamstring is broken and you have trouble walking." Xiang Chao looked at Tao Yi longingly.
Tao Yi said: "If you don't leave now, I don't know when you will leave again next time."
Xiang Chao gritted his teeth and said, "I'm not leaving."
Just as Xiang Mingxue was about to speak, Man Bao clapped his hands and said, "Okay, then you can stay here with him until we come to see you tomorrow."
Bai Shan also nodded, "I'll bring you something delicious tomorrow. What do you want to eat?"
Xiang Chao:...Don't you want to persuade me?
Bai Shan and Man Bao had already happily got out of the cell.
Xiang Chao watched the two men run away helplessly. Tao Yi looked back at the two brothers, smiled slightly, and had the cell door closed again.
Bai Shan and Man Bao signed the document, and then stepped out of the prison door together.
The sun was shining brightly outside, and the two of them, who had not seen the sun for a long time, couldn't help but squint their eyes to look at the sunlight that filled the world.
Bai Erlang, who had been standing in front of the carriage early, shouted as soon as he saw them appearing. Bai Shan and Man Bao came to their senses and looked up to the front together.
The three people's eyes met, and they immediately cheered and rushed forward to hug each other.
When Yin You saw them jumping around with their hands on their shoulders, he couldn't help but smile and narrow his eyes.
Tao Yi, who was escorting them out, saw that they hadn't stopped shouting for a long time. He couldn't help but put away his smile, coughed twice and said, "Now that you're out, let's go quickly. What's the point of shouting like this in front of Tianlao?"
talk?"
Bai Shan and Man Bao saluted Tao Yi with smiles on their faces, then put their hands on Bai Erlang's shoulders and ran towards Yin or them.
Wu Lang led Zhou Lijun, and Yin He led Changshou. What surprised Bai Shan and others was that Feng Zongping, Ji Hao, and Liu Huan also came. The carriages were lined up across the road in front of Tianlao Gate. It was still very spectacular.
of.
The three of them ran over, and Yin You and Feng Zongping all came forward, "You finally came out. Why do I see that you are still a little fatter?"
"Come on, come on, I specially prepared the mugwort water. Wash it and sprinkle it on it. I don't know if you have prepared a brazier at home." Feng Zongping was obviously very skilled in this kind of thing. He took a pot and returned it.
The steaming wormwood water came up, and everyone jumped up and sprinkled it on the two of them.
Bai Shan and Man Bao wanted to say it was okay, but they didn't know who was so cruel, so they just picked up water and poured it on their faces. They screamed in anger and simply grabbed the wooden basin and ignored the other side.
Everyone wants to recruit them back.
A group of young people immediately made a fuss in front of the Tianlao gate.
Tao Yi, who was about to turn back to Tianlao, got lucky and was about to yell, but he didn't know whose hand slipped or was intentional, when the remaining wormwood water in the wooden basin splashed over,
He directly slapped Tao Yi in the face.
The scene suddenly fell silent.
Tao Yi stretched out his hand to wipe the mugwort water off his face, opened his eyes and looked at the group of teenagers in front of him.
Feng Zongping was the first to react and shouted: "Uncle Tao, this moxa water is used to remove bad luck. It's good to splash. I'll give you another pot later. I'm leaving now."
"I'm leaving first too—"
Bai Shan also grabbed Man Bao and said, "We are all wet, so we should go back and change clothes first. Master Tao doesn't need to send..."
The boys and girls dispersed with a bang. Tao Yi's chest rose and fell sharply twice, and he endured it. What could he do? Among the group of teenagers, there were not only the grandson of his Shangguan, but also the grandson of his Shangguan's Shangguan. He couldn't bear it!
The carriage in front of the Tianlao gate disappeared after a while, taking away many people who had been staring at the Tianlao gate. After a long time, after everyone had dispersed, a carriage not far away came.
He raised the curtain and glanced at the front of the empty hall. He laughed and said, "Okay, let's go forward."
The driver drove the carriage to the gate of Tianyao. Wei Zhi got out of the carriage and went directly into the prison.
Xiang Chaocai moved all Bai Shan's books in front of Xiang Mingxue, and footsteps came from outside the cell door.
Everyone looked up and saw Wei Zhi leading someone over and opening the cell door.
Meeting the eyes of the Xiang brothers, Wei Zhi smiled slightly and said, "Xiang Mingxue, let's change places."
Xiang Chao's expression changed, and he stood in front of Xiang Mingxue and said, "You, what do you want to do?"
Wei Zhi clasped his hands and said, "Don't be afraid, it's just that the prison is not that safe today, so I'll give you two a different place."
After that, he clapped his hands, and two men in prison uniforms who looked similar to them came forward and walked into the cell while glaring at Chao.
Wei knew: "From today on, they will live here on your behalf."
Xiang Mingxue was unfazed. After taking a deep look at Wei Zhi, he said to Xiang Chao: "Let's go, carry me out."
