Chapter 584: Getting out of the prison of poverty

What they didn't expect was that there was no reaction in the stomach after drinking the gourd water, just like drinking ordinary water, Gu Xueying said curiously. "Sister Xiaolan, what's going on? Why don't I feel any change after drinking this water? It's completely different from the water Brother Li gave me last time. My body felt warm immediately after drinking his water."

Li Kaiyang was beside him, and then he remembered that when he was filling water, a man on the road told him that water filled with wooden objects would lose its effectiveness and that porcelain bottles must be used. The bottle of water he gave Gu Xueying was It's in a porcelain bottle, so it works.

Of course, Xiaolan was also full of doubts. Li Kaiyang reminded them that he remembered it. Several people were surprised. They didn't expect there to be such a big gap. The water pipe doesn't work, so the problem is no longer big. The worst thing is the white turtle shell. Only he can solve it, so what the three people want to do is to go outside to look for the white turtle shell.

Xiaolan asked Li Kaiyang: "Have you figured it out? Why don't you break in and let's sneak out quietly."

Li Kaiyang was a little hesitant at this time. He knew that his reputation would be ruined if he went out. It turned out that there was Xiaolan inside when they walked out, and they could still remain locked up. If there was no one else, they went outside. This news will soon be known to the prince. The imprisoned prisoner has escaped, and there is no way to remove the stain on his body. Li Kaiyang hesitates here.

Xiaolan saw what he was thinking and said, "Those people you mentioned are not coming to take the blame for you. They are coming to help you wash away your grievances. Then we can leave here with dignity."

A conversation between several people. There was no doubt that someone outside heard it, but at this moment, they heard someone coughing. His cough was a signal to them that I was outside.

Li Kaiyang thought that the jailer was back again, but he didn't expect that it was the prince himself standing in front of them, which surprised Li Kaiyang. The prince held his hand on the railing and saw that there was another person inside. He didn't think much about it. Maybe he thought that Gu Xueying was the maid next to them and was locked up together. As a prince, he didn't care about such small things. Today The prince suddenly came to see him. Li Kaiyang was still a little panicked, wondering if the prince had heard the content of their conversation just now.

The prince did not mention what they just said, nor did he say it to anyone above. He just asked Li Kaiyang: "Master Li, are you okay living here?"

Li Kaiyang was very grateful to the prince. He saw that the prince was so old and his beard was already gray. He still came to see him in prison. This was really a kind gesture that he could not refuse. He wanted to kneel down and kowtow to the prince, but as soon as he made a move, the prince stopped him and said: "No need to be more polite, no need to be more polite, Mr. Li, I am locking you here out of necessity, because the prince's palace The seal was stolen. This is not a small matter. I used to hide it from the outside world and prevent them from knowing. Later, someone actually found this seal from where we live. I saw that the paper could not contain the fire. I can't hide it anymore, so I can only arrest you, because you can't get rid of your grievances in this matter. Although I have kept you here, I have been solving this case, but the suspect cannot be found. I know there must be someone He lurked next to me. He secretly stole my seal and did a lot of bad things outside. You must have heard that the government took advantage of my mistake and made a big fuss. He even sent troops He came to besiege the palace, regardless of the relationship between superiors and subordinates. He had to put me to death, so he reported to the emperor and copied me. I am now besieged internally and externally, and I am almost in a desperate situation. "

When he said this, the prince looked a little sad, and Li Kaiyang didn't understand what he wanted to say next. Is it because he wants to say that I can only take the blame on you and cut him off to stop Youyou's mouth? This is just Li Kaiyang's own speculation, but he can't help but think so, Li Kaiyang. I was very grateful to the prince for his kindness and said. "Your Majesty captured us and treated us so well. He provided us with food and shelter. Although we were imprisoned here and lost our freedom, he took very good care of us. I am really grateful for this. Your Majesty, if you Feel free to say whatever you want. No matter what you do, I don’t blame the prince. But there is one thing I must clarify with you. It is impossible for us to steal the big seal, nor can we do anything wantonly after stealing it. I left it wherever we lived. To be honest, we accidentally picked up this seal from a ruined temple. At that time, we wanted to take the opportunity to contribute to the prince, but we never had such an opportunity. I also left the official seal. It was on the dragon bed for you to find. I just thought we were about to leave. We couldn't take this official seal with us. Staying there would save me the trouble of explaining to you. Unexpectedly, I was caught back by the prince. "

After hearing his explanation, the prince nodded in agreement. Of course, he also knew that Li Kaiyang and the others were unjust, but he frowned and said, "The reason why I arrested you is not because I don't believe you, but because I don't The solution is, if someone stands up and admits this matter in a reasonable and reasonable manner, you can naturally leave openly. But we can't find the culprit now. If we arrest another unrelated person and let others take the blame, I feel unbearable. "

Li Kaiyang really admired the prince's kindness. He has such a high status. To him, killing a lot of people is like trampling an ant to death, but the prince values ​​other people's lives. Li Kaiyang was extremely admired.

The two women next to him couldn't get a word in. They just watched quietly. Xiaolan was prepared just in case, and Gu Xueying was also prepared. If the prince wanted to kill them cruelly, the two women would be ready to rush out and show no mercy. But Li Kaiyang could see from the prince's eyes how reluctant he was to do it.

The prince continued, "Mr. Li, I really appreciate your handling of the dragon bed this time. Thanks to your help, I successfully handed over the dragon bed to the emperor. I haven't seen any flaws. If it hadn't been for you Great wisdom, I may not be able to keep my title as a prince. What I did as a prince is actually very frustrating. Although I have the status of a prince, I cannot fully exercise my rights as a prince. The emperor does not trust me, so he sent In that palace, I can only be cautious. The emperor always thinks that I am in a foreign land, on this island far away from the mainland. I will do something rebellious, but will I do it? My behavior is obvious to all. It didn't hinder anyone at all. I also behaved like an honest prince and was loyal to the emperor. But this new man in the palace was very picky and made trouble for me. Not long ago, he sent troops to kill me. The palace was under siege, and they wanted to take me to Beijing to plead guilty on the grounds of gold and silver seals. Fortunately, there were officers and soldiers stationed in my palace. He felt that it would not be easy to restrain me, so he withdrew the troops after a few days of siege. But I thought He won't let it go and will come back again."

When he said this, Li Kaiyang could see that the expression on his face was very depressed, with a look of despair, and then suddenly his eyes shone again, and he said decisively, "So I made up my mind."

Just after saying these few words, the three people's hearts were raised in their throats. They had made up their minds? This means handing us over or executing us. Li Kaiyang pinched the sword technique in his hand tightly. Once he encountered an accident, the lightsaber would be generated, and everyone was chopping melons and vegetables in front of him.

I never expected what the prince would say next, "I want to let you go and let you regain your freedom. Anyway, you can't do anything if I keep you. Since he wants to inflict a crime, there is no reason to worry, even if he wants you to take the blame." , he will have new ways to deal with me, so there is no need for me to sacrifice you anymore. I am very clear about the cause and effect of this matter.

You definitely didn't steal the big seal. I know it in my heart, because you haven't come here when the seal was lost, and I haven't seen you. It must have been stolen by those people lurking around me. Who am I? I can't tell clearly, but there are about that many people. I still doubt it. But I don't know where they are going. The officers and soldiers outside have been checking the ward for a long time, but there is no trace of them. It's like they have disappeared from the world. I even scolded those demolishing officials for this matter. Are there freeloaders in the yamen? I enjoy my salary all day long, but I can't do such a little thing. "

When Li Kaiyang heard this, he was so grateful that he almost shed tears. He didn't expect such a big person. He actually thought about himself, tried every means, withstood the pressure, withstood the attacks of others, and wanted to let us go. Such kindness is so touching.

Immediately, he said with gratitude, "Your Majesty, you are too kind to the villain. How can we be so loved by the Prince? Well, please be at ease, Your Majesty. He will not give you everything. Are you looking for trouble and want to bring you to justice? I want to see if he has the ability.

The prince looked at him with wide eyes and said, "Why can't you do anything about it?"

Li Kaiyang said, "I can't say what I can do, but I promise you one thing. He can't do anything to you in this palace. If he wants to arrest you and punish you, it's all delusion. As long as I'm here, I won't let him succeed." .”

The prince seemed to have grasped a life-saving straw. He shouted loudly to the jailer behind him, "Someone come quickly, someone come quickly. Open Mr. Li's prison door."

A boy followed closely behind and came over to open the cell door. There was a crisp sound of chains. Li Kaiyang and the three of them were free. This surprise came too suddenly. Especially Xiaolan, who had been locked up for such a long time, and when he came out, he was like a bird out of the cage, letting himself fly and jumping happily. Li Kaiyang finally knelt down and kowtowed to the prince because, if nothing else, he was so considerate of his subordinates at his age. Enough to be a respectable person.

The prince sent someone to arrange for them to move to a high-end residence. This is a small independent building in the center of the garden. There is also a small building in a garden not far from him. I heard it is the lady's embroidery building.

After the prince placed it, he did not continue to talk to him. Maybe he didn't want to push it so hard and let them rest in this new environment for two days.

Xiaolan went to the building to look around. He found various furnishings that were clearly a young lady's embroidery building. No one has lived in this building for a long time. Why is the building so empty now? He was a little confused, but Li Kaiyang didn't think so. He felt that it was impossible for the prince to let them live in the lady's embroidery building, not to mention that there was a building next to the lady's embroidery building, which was clearly a welcome building for entertaining guests. And Gu Xueying didn't know much about ancient architecture. He didn't care whether it was the lady's embroidery building or the maid's house. Anyway, he felt good living in this house.

There were several houses for them to choose from. They are all accommodations with wide views and very good lighting. Li Kaiyang was very generous and let them choose first. The two women were naturally rude, and Gu Xueying also knew how to be more modest. Xiaolan's character has always been to go her own way. When he saw which house was good, he pointed with his hand and asked the servants who followed him to help him clean up the house.

It stands to reason that men and women live together, which is a great defense against etiquette. It was not allowed in the society of that era. But Li Kaiyang seems to be different in the eyes of others. All secular legislation has no effect on him.

In fact, he still couldn't understand that the reason why Gu Xueying and Xiaolan were arranged to live with him was entirely because the master wanted to live with the maid so that it would be convenient for him to serve him. In fact, they arranged for Gu Xueying and Xiaolan to live together. Landu became his maid.

After being arranged, the three people lived together again and began to discuss. The prince has treated us like this, what should we do next?

Xiaolan came up with her own opinion and said, "I don't care what kind of prince he is or whether the prince treats us well. If it doesn't work for us to stay here, we will go out. Break out of the siege and stir up excitement for him. "

Gu Xueying said thoughtfully. "Sister Xiaolan, I don't think it's appropriate to do this. Kaiyang has promised the prince to help him solve the current difficulties. If we leave unhappy, wouldn't we make him a breach of trust?"

Xiaolan blinked and looked at Gu Xueying and then at Li Kaiyang, then burst into laughter. He said: "I can't make the decision. It's you two who make the decision. If you say you want to stay, you can stay. If you say you want to leave, I'll take the lead. This little girl is really sweet-tempered. She will cry when she wants to cry and laugh when she wants to laugh. This is She had a consistent character. From the time she ran away from home to the time she found him, she had indeed experienced a lot of pain and torture in life. With the warmth of her heart and everyone's love for him, she gradually recovered. The vitality of the past, especially Li Kaiyang's care for him, to her, was like injecting a clear spring into his heart, and he felt that nothing could trouble him. He regained his high-spirited personality.

Gu Xueying is thoughtful and cautious, which is also related to his past behavior style. She is afraid that something unexpected will happen and she won't be able to explain it, so she always takes everything seriously. She and Li Kaiyang could relate to many things and wanted to do it together. The same was true for this matter. He was also very grateful to the prince and knew that he was a high-minded and upright official, so he agreed with Li Kaiyang to help him out of trouble.
