life in ancient gods

Chapter 147 Chapter 147 Refreshing
Taiwei Gao was dressed in a purple robe with a round collar, a head with spreading wings on his head, a bank note in his arms, and two well-dressed personal guards carrying red lanterns and waist knives behind him, and came to the gate of the General's Mansion .

The lights in front of the gate of the General's Mansion were brightly lit, and the two black-armored soldiers guarding the gate glanced at Taiwei Gao, and bowed their hands to him: "May I ask what is the important thing for Mr. Taiwei to come to the General's Mansion?"

Gao Taiwei didn't look at the two black-armored soldiers guarding the gate, but with his hands behind his back, he looked up at the red lantern in front of the door and said proudly: "This Taiwei wants to see General Su!"

A black-armored soldier guarding the gate looked at Gao Taiwei's arrogant expression, and said neither humble nor overbearing: "Master Taiwei, please wait here later, and let me report to the general."

After finishing speaking, he winked at the black-armored soldier on the opposite side, nodded, then stroked the handle of the knife at his waist, and walked towards the dungeon in the backyard of the general's mansion.

"Master Taiwei, please stop!" The black-armored soldier guarding the gate saw Gao Taiwei looking into the general's mansion, and wanted to follow the gatekeeper who had informed him, so he hurriedly stepped forward and cupped his hands.

"You...you dare to stop me...!" Gao Taiwei wanted to break into the general's mansion directly, but the black-armored soldier guarding the gate immediately stopped him. The black-armored soldier guarding the gate kept his mouth shut.

However, he thought that he was here to save his son Gao Yanei, and that he was asking for help, so he had no choice but to give up. He flicked his wide sleeves, turned around, looked up at the bright moon hanging high in the night sky, and let out a long sigh. .

Although the Taiwei is a Sangong, he has no real power in the Daye Dynasty, so he is naturally afraid of Su Pingan, who has military power in his hand.

He raised his head to look at Haoyue, and said in his heart: "Hey, I just got a sum of money, and I haven't moved it yet. Now I want to take this money to the general's mansion to redeem this unworthy brat, who has caused me troubles all day long." , I'm really pissed off..."

Gao Taiwei really regrets now that he has taken Gao Kan, a son who is of no benefit other than causing trouble for him.

In the dungeon in the backyard of the General's Mansion, Su Ping'an held a whip in his hand and lashed Gao Yanei with a hundred whips.

Gao Yanei had been whipped for more than 80 times before he fainted from the pain. His body was covered with whip marks, and his prison clothes were all streaked with blood.

Su Pingan asked two soldiers around him to wake up Gao Yanei with cold water.

"Shua Shua...!" Two basins of cold water were poured on Gao Yanei's head.

"Hey...hey, don't hit me...General Su, please don't leave me...I recruited...I recruited them all...A few days ago I kicked the door of widow Zhang...Er Mazi Paying the rent, I had one of his legs broken..." In the high office of the torture rack, half asleep, half awake, as if in the middle of a mountain of knives and a sea of ​​fire, with scars all over his body, adding cold water like this, it was even more painful. He grinned, Before he opened his two little eyes, he hurriedly talked about the bad things he did a few days ago.

Su Ping'an asked his soldiers to write down with pen and ink. Although Gao Yanei didn't commit any serious crimes, as long as he recruited them, these mischievous things would be enough for him to drink a pot.

"Ah... I..." Gao Yanei said a lot of nonsense on the torture rack, and then opened his eyes, realizing that he had told a lot of truth in his half-dream and half-waking just now, he saw a sneer flashing in Su Ping'an's eyes, Then he hurriedly said: "General Su, the villain was talking nonsense just now, you must not take it seriously... I... ouch..."

When he was still about to say something, another basin of cold water was poured on him, and his current appearance seemed to be a drowned chicken covered in injuries.

General Su took a piece of rice paper with a confession recorded in the hands of a soldier beside him, and waved it in front of Gao Kan, "Gao Kan, you don't want to suffer more, so you just press this handprint, if you don't press it, this general will let people... ..."

"No, I'll press... I'll press..." Gao Yanei couldn't take it anymore, if he hit again, he would die.

Seeing that Gao Yanei gave in, Su Pingan smiled coldly and asked his soldiers to cut Gao Yanei's fingers and press a bloody handprint on the confession rice paper.

At this time, the black-armored soldier guarding the gate came to the dungeon in the backyard and bowed to report to Su Pingan: "General Qi, Taiwei Gao is waiting outside the gate of the general's mansion. Has the general seen him?"

Gao Yanei saw that his father Gao Qiulai finally came to rescue him from the sea of ​​suffering, he couldn't help being excited, he secretly glanced at Su Ping'an, gritted his teeth in his heart, and said to himself: "Huh, good Su Ping'an, my father has finally come to save me. I want you to look good after I go out! Su Ping'an, just wait and see..."

Su Pingan glanced at the black-armored soldier guarding the gate, with a thoughtful look in his eyes, and ordered: "Let Taiwei Gao wait in the lobby!"

"Obey the General!" The black-armored soldier guarding the gate agreed, walked out of the dungeon, and walked towards the gate of the General's Mansion under the moonlight.

Outside the gate of the General's Mansion, Lieutenant Gao was pacing back and forth with his hands behind his back, with an impatient look on his face, and he would poke his head towards the General's Mansion from time to time.

When he saw the black-armored soldier who delivered the message approaching, he hurriedly stepped forward and asked, "How?!"

The black-armored soldier guarding the gate slightly cupped his hands towards the anxious Taiwei Gao and said, "Master Taiwei, the general asks you to wait in the lobby, please!"

"Lead the way!" Gao Taiwei flicked his robe sleeves, with a domineering look, followed the black-armored soldier and walked into the general's mansion.

The two guards holding red lanterns behind him also wanted to go in, but they were stopped by the black-armored soldiers guarding the gate, "You two wait outside the gate!"

"...You..." The two well-dressed guards holding lanterns under Lieutenant Gao looked at each other. Seeing that Lieutenant Gao didn't say anything, they could only wait outside the gate of the General's Mansion.

In the lobby, the lights were brightly lit, and eight oil lamps were lit on the walls. The breeze blew by, and the lights swayed slightly.

Gao Taiwei put his hands behind his back, frowned, and waited for a stick of incense in the lobby alone, before Su Pingan brought a group of black armored soldiers to escort the wounded Gao Yanei to the lobby.

Seeing his father Gao Taiwei, Gao Yanei, who was covered in injuries, couldn't help but tremble all over his body, and the tears couldn't stop pouring out all of a sudden, he said excitedly: "Father... come and save me... ...I was almost beaten to death..."

"...Why did I accept a useless thing like you as my son..." When Gao Taiwei saw his son Gao Kan being beaten into a pig's head, he couldn't help feeling hatred and pain in his heart, but he had to do so under the eaves. Bowing his head, he breathed a sigh of relief, and hurriedly stepped forward and asked Su Ping'an: "Su... General Su, what did Quan Zi do to be taken to this general's mansion, Quan Zi has always kept his duty, General Su, you Did you catch the wrong person?"

Su Pingan didn't blush when he saw that Captain Gao was lying, he really had a thick skin, the corner of his mouth curled up slightly, and he said with a cold smile: "What a good one! Your son openly ordered his subordinates to draw their swords against the general in the market. , is this something done by a person who keeps his duty?"

No matter how you say it, Taiwei Gao is one level older than Su Pingan. Although Su Pingan is holding his son Gao Yanei and has military power in his hands, he can't lose in terms of momentum. He feels that Su Pingan will not dare to move. his.

He was born as a rascal, but now Su Ping angrily blows his beard and stares at him, showing his true colors, stretching out his trembling fingers, pointing at Su Ping angrily, and said bitterly: "Good for you!" Su Ping'an,... how dare you be so unreasonable to the Taiwei, don't think that you have some military power and ignore the Taiwei, aren't you afraid that the Taiwei will join you?!"

"Okay! Then let's see who can win who!" Su Pingan smiled lightly, took out the confession rice paper with bloody handprints from his bosom, unfolded it in front of Taiwei Gao.

"...This...what is this?" Gao Taiwei squinted his eyes and glanced at it casually. When he saw a dozen lines of words densely written on the rice paper, and a bloody handprint that was not yet dry, he couldn't help but beat in his heart. A thrill.

His eyes were slightly fixed, and under the light of the oil lamp, he carefully looked at the lines on the rice paper. The more he looked at it, the colder he felt in his heart, and the more livid his face became.

"You...you must be a trick of torture! This Taiwei must ask the emperor to give you a copy!..." Gao Taiwei's lips trembled slightly, pointing at Su Ping'an, and said bitterly.

Seeing Captain Gao's face turn purple with anger, Su Ping'an waved his hand and ordered his soldiers: "Come here, please come back to Captain Gao!"

"Gao Taiwei, please!" A black-armored soldier stepped forward to ask Gao Taiwei.

Gao Taiwei didn't like him at all, his eyebrows drooped all of a sudden, his heart was full of distress, he calmed down, and his tone softened: "Su... General Su, if you let the dog go, this Taiwei will take it. How would you like to pay a ransom of 5 taels, and pretend nothing happened?"

If Su Ping'an dared to fill his own pocket with the 5 taels of ransom he took out, then he would have a handle, and when the time came to read Su Ping'an's book, Su Ping'an would not be able to afford it and walk away.

Su Pingan knew what the old fox Gao Taiwei was up to, so naturally he would not take Gao Taiwei's 5 taels of ransom.

"Gao Taiwei, please come back! See off the guests!" Su Ping'an said to his subordinates to see off the guests, and then stuffed the confession with bloody fingerprints into his arms, ignoring Gao Taiwei.

Gao Taiwei had no choice but to frown, glanced at Gao Yanei who was kneeling under the escort of two soldiers, sighed inwardly, and walked out of the hall.

When Gao Yanei saw his father Gao Taiwei turned around and left, he panicked and shouted: "...Father, don't go, you can't leave the child here alone...I don't want to die yet... ...?"

"..." Gao Taiwei glanced back at Gao Yanei, with a look of hatred on his face, and felt that Su Pingan did not dare to execute his son, so he flicked his large sleeves and scolded: "There is nothing , let you suffer some hardships in the dungeon of the general’s mansion, and give you a longer memory!”

With that said, he turned and walked out of the general's mansion.

Gao Yanei saw that his father Gao Taiwei didn't care about him coming, his eyes were full of despair at this moment, he knelt on the ground, with snot and tears streaming down his face, and wept uncontrollably: "General Su, I was wrong, your lord has a lot, so treat me as a Let the fart go..."

Su Pingan looked at Gao Yanei, who was kneeling on the ground, looking like a mangy dog, and smiled coldly in his heart, "Let go? How can it be so easy, come and take him to the dungeon!"

"Here!" Two black-armored soldiers bowed and promised, escorting the half-dead Gao Ya Nei, who was crying, and walked towards the dungeon.

It is as easy for Su Pingan to pinch Gao Yanei to death now as to kill an ant. Gao Yanei is just a little guy to him now, not worth mentioning at all.

On the contrary, Taiwei Gao is a bit difficult to deal with. Although he has some criminal evidence against Gao Yanei, it is not so easy to bring down Taiwei Gao.

Su Pingan rubbed his chin in the lobby, thinking to himself, his eyes flashed thoughtful, and he thought: "Taiwei Gao will definitely find a way to rescue his son Gao Kan, when the time comes..."

Thinking of this, the corner of his mouth curled up slightly, and he walked out of the General's Mansion and walked towards the Su Mansion.

In the bustling and lively night market, there is a lot of traffic, bright lights, bustling pedestrians, hawkers shouting, pedestrians talking and laughing, one after another.

"Girl, let's buy a flower." An old woman with pudding on her clothes and silver hair was holding a bamboo basket in her hand, which was full of bright and dazzling flowers, including jasmine, lily, and peony. She walked up to a young woman and said respectfully with expectation.

The young woman glanced at the old woman, and said disgustedly: "You are so old, and you still come out to sell flowers, hmph."

The old woman was not angry at all, and said slowly: "Miss, I only come to sell flowers when I am old."

"Why?" The young woman asked in bewilderment with a trace of doubt on her face.

The old woman smiled and said: "...Because I have heard a long time ago that selling flowers in the previous life will be beautiful in the next life..."

"Humph, that's a nice thought." The young woman glanced at the old woman and walked away with disdain.

"..." Su Pingan heard the words of the old woman selling flowers, turned her head to look at the old woman selling flowers, and saw that the old woman's face was wrinkled and her eyes were slightly cloudy.

He stepped forward, took out a tael of silver from his pocket, smiled slightly and said, "Mother, here is a peony flower, here is a tael of silver, you don't need to look for it."

Seeing the one tael of silver handed over, the old woman raised her head and glanced at Su Ping'an with her slightly cloudy eyes. After saluting, "General, I dare not accept your money."

"It's okay, just take it." Su Ping'an said gently.

Seeing that Su Ping'an is elegant and easy-going, the old woman thought that the young general in front of her must be a Confucian general. She took the money from Su Ping'an's hand, took out a peony flower from the bamboo basket and said, "...Thank you, General, you are really a good man. If you were a peony."

"En." Su Pingan took the peony flower, saw that the flower was huge and bright red like fire, he couldn't help but slightly lowered his head and smelled it, only to find the fragrance was fresh and refreshing, and said in his heart: "Take this peony flower back and give it to the lady. The lady will love it."
