Qin Jiyan had a special status, so the officials in Xihu did not dare to embarrass him. Instead of escorting him to the prison, they invited him to go to the prison. The officials did not encounter Qin Jiyan during the whole process, but just followed Qin Jiyan.
"Escort" him all the way into the prison.
Qin Jiyan was also very cooperative. After knowing the purpose of the official's visit, he didn't even move an eyebrow. He straightened his clothes and said, "Let's go."
The calm and leisurely look is like going to a banquet instead of being imprisoned in a prison.
Gu Qiancheng stood behind the screen and watched Qin Jiyan leave. Seeing Qin Jiyan's back gradually shrinking until he disappeared, Gu Qiancheng wanted to make a sarcastic smile, mocking Qin Jiyan for committing suicide and finding himself in jail, but
…
She couldn't laugh. No matter how certain Qin Jiyan was, Gu Qiancheng knew that Qin Jiyan would not have the final say in everything in Tianlao.
This is Xihu. If something happens to Qin Jiyan in Tianlao, there will be no one to ask for help, and Qin Jiyan's identity is a life-threatening talisman in Xihu.
She was worried about Qin Jiyan, but she was in no position to persuade Qin Jiyan. Qin Jiyan's determination showed that this matter was very important and he must do it personally, even at the risk of his own life.
The officer didn't react until Qin Jiyan had walked dozens of steps, and hurriedly followed him. At the same time, he thought to himself: There are weirdos every year, and there are so many today. I have never seen anyone who is not afraid of being imprisoned in the sky prison.
You must know that Tianlao is not an ordinary prison. Those who are imprisoned in it will most likely not be able to get out in their lifetime.
There are only nine cells in Xihu Tianyao, and seven of them are currently full. The longest prisoner in there has been incarcerated for more than thirty years. He is the son of a prince who failed to compete with the late emperor for the throne, who is today the Holy Father.
's cousin.
The shortest one is ten years. He is the spy chief of Northern Qi. He has been active in Xihu for more than twenty years and has mastered many secrets. The emperor wants to get some information from him, but has not yet succeeded, and the emperor is still trying.
In short, the prisoners in the sky prison are all felons, but the emperor does not want to or cannot kill them. For example, the emperor cannot kill the spy chief of Northern Qi. Over the years, Northern Qi has never given up on redeeming people. The emperor really wants to kill them.
Killing people, maybe the two countries will have to fight again.
When Qin Jiyan was brought in, there were still two empty cells, namely cells No. 8 and No. 9.
The layout of Xihu Tianlao is in the shape of a "pin", with one cell at the top and four cells on the left and right sides. On the left are two, four, six, and eight, and on the right are one, three, five, and seven.
The sky jail is very clean, without any peculiar smell. There is even a small cubicle in each cell, which should be convenient for prisoners to relieve themselves or change clothes.
Cell No. 1 is decorated like a palace, gorgeous and luxurious, not like a prison cell at all, except that the people living in it have no freedom. And this cell is the son of the prince who failed to seize the throne. He is the eighth son of the current emperor.
younger brother.
Qin Jiyan glanced at him and met that person's eyes. Their eyes met, and he quickly looked away again, as if nothing had happened.
The Zhu Da Qin Jiyan was looking for was in Cell No. 6. It was not as luxurious as Cell No. 1, but it was not bad either. It was the same as that of ordinary people, but it also had no freedom.
The official took Qin Jiyan to cell No. 8 and opened the cell, "Mr. Ji, this is your cell."
But……
Qin Jiyan did not move. He pointed to cell No. 6 and said, "I want to live in that cell."
"What?" The official was dumbfounded. He thought he had stopped wrong, so he picked his ears and said, "Mr. Ji, what did you say?"
"I want to live in that room." Qin Jiyan repeated.
"Mr. Ji, this is not an inn." The officer's mouth twitched slightly. If he hadn't wanted to take advantage of the Ji family's generosity, he would have really wanted to beat Mr. Ji.
When you come to Tianlao, you have to order your number. Is Tianlao an inn?
No, even inns can't book rooms that are occupied by people.
"Can't you?" Qin Jiyan turned around, moved his fingers slightly, and saw a golden light flashing through the air. The next second the officer discovered that he had a small seal on his hand.
"What is this?" The officer held the seal in both hands, his face expressionless.
I have never seen anyone bribe an official or give a seal without giving him a banknote. What can he do with a broken seal?
"With this seal, you can get fifty thousand taels of silver from Sihai Bank." Qin Jiyan said slowly. The official swallowed hard and looked at Qin Jiyan in shock, "What, five, fifty thousand taels?"
My dear, this is money that he will never earn in his lifetime.
The eyes of the few soldiers behind the officer were also shining. Even if the adults eat meat, they can also drink the soup. Fifty thousand taels, the adults can always give them a few thousand taels.
They have a few thousand taels of silver, but they are not yet developed.
Qin Jiyan responded lightly, and the official's eyes shone, but...
Can you really get 50,000 taels with just such a small seal?
The officer was very suspicious, holding the seal with a hesitant look on his face, not knowing what to do.
Qin Jiyan wasn't in a hurry, the bait had already been thrown out, and he didn't believe the fish wouldn't take the bait.
Sure enough, the official didn't think about it for long before he had people come forward to take Zhu Da out and put him in cell No. 8, which happened to be next door to Qin Jiyan.
Zhu Da had a dirty look on his face, and his long hair was disheveled. He could not tell his age. When he was escorted out by the officers, he did not resist. He was dragged away by the officers. He just glanced at Qin Jiyan as he passed by. There was no special emotion in that look.
, only puzzled.
And just this glance was enough for Qin Jiyan to understand that Zhu Da was the person he was looking for.
Zhu Dada was so calm, as calm as a brainless person.
After spending 50,000 taels, Qin Jiyan successfully moved into Cell No. 6. Fortunately, although Zhu Da was dirty, Cell No. 6 was relatively clean, at least he could stand.
After throwing out 50,000 taels of silver, Qin Jiyan was regarded by the officials as a local god of wealth who was too rich and foolish. In order to make the local god of wealth happy, several officials did not mind giving him some benefits.
Don't want to sit on the floor because it's dirty?
It's okay, bring a chair.
Do you think the raw water is unclean?
It doesn't matter, let's have some good tea.
…
No matter where you are, money can make you go around. After receiving 50,000 taels from Qin Jiyan, the official did not mind giving Qin Jiyan some benefits. He only asked this generous master to give them some more later.
Qin Jiyan enjoyed the attentive service of the officials without any psychological pressure. Not long after, Cell No. 6 had a new look. Although it was not comparable to Cell No. 1, it was better than the others.
Next door to Qin Jiyan is Cell No. 4, which houses a woman in her early thirties. The woman is very beautiful, with very delicate features. Even with unkempt hair and a plain face, she is extraordinary. You can imagine how amazing it would be to put on gorgeous clothes.
Cell No. 7 on the opposite side held the head of the Northern Qi secret service. He was an old man in his fifties, with white hair and cloudy eyes. He was sitting on the ground as if he was in trance. Qin Jiyan could smell a faint smell of blood from afar.
I guess this guy just got tortured.
When the two of them saw Qin Jiyan coming in, they threw money away. The woman looked at him like he was an idiot, while the spy from Beiqi showed a meaningful smile, then turned away and said nothing...
