The sky prison is different from the ordinary prison.
This place is under the direct control of the imperial court, or even the emperor.
Throughout the dynasties, most of the prisons were built underground in the capital city and never saw the light of day all year round.
And those imprisoned in such places are usually the court officials who have made heinous mistakes.
Of course, to put it in another tone, this is a place where people without status really can't get in.
For example, the several aristocratic families that were punished by the Nine Clan before were not even worthy of entering this door.
Today, the person serving as the general manager of the Tianlao here is Yuchi Jingde’s son, Yuchi Baolin.
Compared with the likes of Cheng Huailiang and Changsun Chong, Yuchi Baolin was a real playboy.
In the early years of Chang'an City, he often bullied men and dominated women, and even engaged in robbing girls on the street.
If his father, E Guogong, hadn't saved Li Shimin several times in his early years, this guy would have been killed by Li Shimin long ago.
Later, the reason why this guy learned well and started to develop the right path was mainly because of Li Chengqian.
I still remember that day, when Li Chengqian had just moved out of the palace and was wandering on the street, he met this guy.
The two people had never met before, so they didn't know each other.
Yuchi Baolin's dandy attitude really made Li Chengqian very unhappy.
So, under Li Chengqian's verbal provocation, Yuchi Baolin beat him up.
If someone else is beaten, perhaps the Duke of E, Wei Chi Jingde, can help to smooth things over, but beating Li Chengqian is no small matter.
Even though Li Shimin wanted to put things to rest, he couldn't even suppress the matter.
After all, Li Chengqian also has an older sister who is truly a crazy brother-protector.
On that day, Li Tingxue led eight hundred Zuoyi Guards into the E-Government Mansion and almost burned down Yuchi Jingde's house.
Not only did she have Yuchi Jingde beaten, but she also forced Yuchi Baolin to the former Prince of Zhongshan.
In the end, it was only because Yuchi Baolin kowtowed to Li Chengqian and apologized in person, and Yuchi Jingde begged for mercy, that this guy was able to survive to this day. Otherwise, I am afraid that with Li Tingxue's temper, he would have been killed long ago.
Since then, Li Tingxue's reputation has spread far and wide, and almost no one in the capital's dandy circles dares to offend her.
Likewise, because of her evil reputation, some dandies could not help but feel weak in their calves after seeing Li Tingxue.
This is the case with Yuchi Paulin.
When he heard that Li Tingxue and Gao Zhixing came to the prison in a menacing manner.
He was immediately frightened and fell from his chair to the ground.
He said with surprise on his face: "What did you say? Li Tingxue is here?"
"Yes, my lord."
The jailer who reported the news was also full of doubts when he saw that his master looked like he had seen a ghost.
After all, this Yuchi Baolin has always been known for being brutal and violent.
But today, after hearing Li Tingxue's name, his face seemed a bit paler than usual.
Mother.
As for that?
Are you so scared when you hear a woman's name?
Obviously, this jailer is new here.
I have never experienced Li Tingxue's methods, or even heard of her vicious reputation.
As for the contemptuous look this guy looked at her, Yuchi Baolin had no time to pay attention to it.
He quickly put on his shoes, strode out of his office, and headed straight for the door.
Far away, he saw Li Tingxue and Gao Zhixing standing outside the gate of the prison, seemingly arguing with the guard guarding the door.
Seeing this scene, Yuchi Baolin broke into a cold sweat.
Now, he was really afraid that his subordinates would be ignorant and offend this aunt.
He came forward with a smile on his face and said: "Princess Princess, how come you have time to come to Tianlao today?"
Hearing this, Li Tingxue looked up at him.
After sizing him up a few times, Li Tingxue raised her head and said, "Based on my understanding of you, you are not brainless."
"Since you are not brainless, don't you still know what I am here to do?"
If others had spoken to Yuchi Baolin like this, he would have gotten angry a long time ago.
But in front of Li Tingxue, he was really as timid as his grandson.
Yuchi Baolin said with a naive smile on her face: "I know that the princess is here to see your highness, but this matter is really difficult to handle."
"After all, outsiders are not allowed to visit the Tianlao at will. You must hold His Majesty's handwriting to even enter..."
"Difficult to handle?"
Li Tingxue sneered, and her originally peaceful eyes turned extremely cold in an instant.
"If I beat you here, wouldn't there be any need for a handwriting?"
Hearing her words, Gao Zhixing took the initiative and pressed towards Yuchi Baolin without anyone saying a word.
These guys are all from the dandy circles in the capital, and no one knows anyone.
Seeing him coming at this moment, Yuchi Baolin said quickly: "Princess Princess, General Gao, don't be impulsive, don't be impulsive..."
"I just said that casually."
"If others want to visit, they can't, but you two can definitely visit."
Yuchi Baolin had a flattering smile on her face, as flattering as a turtle soliciting customers in a brothel.
He half-turned around and made an inviting gesture towards the prison: "You two, please come inside, please come inside..."
After saying this, the guy simply shouted away the jailer next to him and led the two of them into the prison.
Now, Li Tingxue was really worried.
She couldn't wait to see how Li Chengqian was doing, whether he had been wronged or bullied.
But what she didn't expect was that the way Yuchi Baolin took her was not the way to the cell at all, but to the treasury behind the prison. .
Li Tingxue had time to ask.
I heard bursts of singing in my ears.
"I want to fly to the sky and go and herd sheep."
"Give my beloved sheep some marshmallows."
"I want to stand on the sea and catch a big moon."
"Hang it on the roof and it will shine brightly!"
"If I want to be willful, I will be."
"I want to be stubborn and I can be stubborn, let's see what you can do to me."
"If I don't want to be hesitant, I won't be hesitant. If I don't want to be confused, I won't be confused. Is there anything more inflated than this..."
Special voice, cheerful accompaniment, and songs that are unique in this world.
Li Tingxue could tell that this was sung by Li Chengqian without having to distinguish it carefully.
At that moment, she felt a sense of joy in her heart, great, he was fine...
But just when he thought of this, Li Tingxue's smiling face suddenly changed drastically.
Good boy.
He was worried to death when he was outside.
But he is singing here?
Especially when she heard this guy's cheerful voice, Li Tingxue felt extremely angry.
Without even thinking about it, she took long strides and rushed towards the direction where the singing came from.
Far away, I saw Li Chengqian holding a Yueqin, having fun with a few official slaves who were sent to do menial work.
Before Li Chengqian could react, Li Tingxue stepped forward and slapped him on the head with a big chestnut.
"Ouch!"
Li Chengqian screamed in pain.
"Who? Who is so bold as to dare to sneak attack on me in broad daylight?"
As soon as he finished speaking, he turned around and saw Li Tingxue's face as cold as frost...
