Live together with Qing

During the time Wei Changsheng was locked in the sky prison, he seriously thought about some issues.

For example, the sky prison here is not at all different from what I imagined.

When he was still Wei Yingcai, there was a "sunken" shopping mall near the rented house. The second floor marked by the shopping mall was actually the ground floor. Building G, which usually refers to the basement floor, became the third floor here. , such a "distinctive" design brain circuit, it is particularly painful every time he meets friends who come for the first time there.

"Yes, you come out of the subway and go directly to the first floor. That's right, that's the first floor. What? You came here by car from the ground? Then you go to the next floor... Oh, you drove here by yourself. Where are you? First floor parking lot? B4? Then you take the elevator up to the second floor, hey, it’s not the second floor in the elevator, it’s the ground floor, brother..."

Wei Yingcai is complained by friends almost every time, but this shopping mall is the closest to his home, and the transportation costs are still saved a lot. The difference between the savings and the reselling employee discounts will become a fortune at the end of the month A considerable amount of living expenses was sent to his mother.He knew that his mother had been hiding the debts from his family, that his father's illness had drained all his savings, that his mother could not bear the shame of begging relatives, and secretly borrowed a lot of usury. The interest snowballed and turned into an astronomical figure. .

Mom, I bought insurance for myself, as well as the company's pension, you can use it to pay off the debt.Thinking of his mother, Wei Changsheng suddenly felt sour in his eyes, and looked up at the dilapidated mud wall, which had large and small potholes, which were dug out one by one by people with their fingers.

How boring this man is.Wei Changsheng said to himself.

This is only the prisoner who is on the top floor and has the lightest crime.

When Wei Changsheng was escorted to the sky prison, his eyes glanced at the house number on the stone wall and the stone stairs winding deep into the ground, and he exclaimed in his heart, why is the sky prison here like the shopping mall near his home, they like to dig into the ground? , A total of three floors of underground prisons were excavated in the Sky Prison. The lower the floors, the greater the crimes of the prisoners.

A curious thought flashed through his mind, who is the heinous prisoner in the deepest prison?

Fortunately, the case of the theft has not yet been ruled by the Emperor. Wei Changsheng is only a suspect, and lives in the prison on the first floor closest to the ground. The hay on the ground is changed every seven days, and there are windows on the wall to see the sky.There was nothing offensive about the jailer's words. After all, the prisoners living on this floor still have a great chance to go out and become officials again.

He was flustered at the beginning. He was unable to provide any evidence against this case where he had made it clear that he was framed.There is no surveillance in the hotel, and Master Cheng’s confession cannot be overturned. More importantly, during the hours when I have no memory, I can’t find anyone to testify. It seems that all the evidence forms a closed loop, pointing at the bull’s-eye. The proud son, the rookie of Yizhi, was originally a person who was greedy for fame and fortune. He planned a theft case to overthrow his boss with ulterior motives for his superiors.

Previously, he postponed going home to observe filial piety for the sacrificial ceremony, which was also interpreted as "unruly, unfilial and unruly", which filled the case file with thick ink.

"If filial piety is to make way for one's own officials, what's the matter with ministers?" This extremely ironic comment was written by Murong Duan at the end of the file.

But all of this happened where Wei Changsheng couldn't see it, so naturally he couldn't care about it.

On the seventh day of being imprisoned, Wei Changsheng thought the most about how to deal with the person who killed him after leaving the prison.

Yes, he will definitely leave the sky prison, he is very convinced.

On the fourth day in prison, the yamen servant who brought the food gave him a strange smile. The rice was replaced with rice porridge, the steamed bun was hollowed out to hide ointment, and there was a note: "Be safe and don't be impatient, the day of the ceremony , take you out."

Hey, it seems that Beimingzhou is still reluctant to give up his life.It's just that what I didn't expect was that all the spies from Beimingzhou had sneaked into the palace.Thinking not to leave traces, Wei Changsheng stuffed the note in his mouth and chewed it a few times before spitting it out with a bah sound. The paper here is really unpalatable, but at this moment he saw the words on the note fluctuating like water ripples, In the blink of an eye, the corners of his mouth twitched.

Before Elder Wen avoided talking about the tortoise imprint that appeared out of nowhere on his body, but he inadvertently revealed the "heavenly chosen one" in his words, which caught Wei Changsheng's heart. I sneaked into the library and searched through ancient books, only to find a few words about the chosen one.

There are seven chosen people from each of the four countries, who inherit the spiritual power of the guardian god... The Xuanwu mark is owned by the elders of the seven sects of Beimingzhou...

In this way, Mr. Yan is one of the seven elders, and he is his chosen heir.Wei Changsheng spat at himself in his heart.

Bah, that ugly old woman was obviously on an equal footing with her, but she threatened her that day, and it was a complete bullying of Wei Changsheng's youth and ignorance.

Wei Changsheng guessed that Elder Yan may still have a lot of foreshadowing in Dongqingdu, and maybe he is simply worrying unfoundedly, a mere prison in the sky cannot trap him, the chosen one.

But in the final analysis, this confidence was given to him by the note in the steamed bun.Wei Changqi raised the bowl aggressively, drank the porridge in one gulp, and then carefully spread the ointment evenly on the wound on his face.

On the first day after being imprisoned, he sat slumped on the ground, dazed for a long time, subconsciously touched his face, wow, it was really swollen like a pig's head.He wanted to smile bitterly, but spit out a mouthful of cloudy bloody phlegm.At that time, his heart was ashamed. Since he was going to die, what difference did it make if he was clean and decent or unkempt?

It's just that the corners of his mouth are swollen and painful, and he can't even swallow simple rice at mealtime. He can't bear it, after all, hunger hurts his stomach.

I would have known that I would have eaten a few more mouthfuls of braised pork for the last meal.As he muttered this sentence, tears finally slid down the corners of his eyes, fell to the ground, and broke into several petals, like the sound of a broken heart.

Just die, anyway, it's not the first time, maybe after this time, I can return to the original world, treat everything here as a dream, and forget...that person.

He fell to the ground and lay there for a long time, until the torches were lit in the prison, and the lights were shadowed. He tossed and turned to understand one thing, and he became refreshed.

I was probably put together by Cheng Li from beginning to end.

There was so much commotion about the whole incident, but if the actual impact of Chengli's loss of official seal was that the forged document proved Xia Anxi's charges, then except for Xia Anxi, it was really only Wei Changsheng and Xia Shilang's fault. Do all subordinate officials benefit?

not necessarily.

Chengli was old, and although he said from time to time that he should be virtuous, Wei Changsheng felt that the more a person kept saying that he didn't care, the more he cared in his heart.Chengli's two sons were both born to the main house, one stupid and the other idiot. He has no children under his concubines. If he retires from the officialdom, how can he guarantee his prosperity and wealth for the rest of his life.

Among the four servants, Si Tianyi formed his own school, and of the remaining three, who did Cheng Li dislike the most?

The answer is about to come out.

Xia Anxi has always been relying on his profound experience, from time to time he obediently obeys the tasks assigned by Cheng Li, and laughs at him behind his back for being stupid.

I received so much public support from Cheng Li, it was because Cheng Li deliberately put pressure on Xia Anxi, I'm afraid Xia Anxi didn't hold back for a while, secretly made some tricks offstage, and Cheng Li finally caught his braid.

However, how could the great sage and wise man submit these evidences to the emperor himself?After all, behind Xia Anxi stood the prince's party.

Hahaha, Wei Changsheng suddenly wanted to look up to the sky and laugh, and it just so happened that this robbery killed two birds with one stone, he killed a person with a knife, and the knife also shattered his body into thousands of pieces.This old man really has a few brushes.

No wonder a while ago, Cheng Li specifically asked him the address of his hotel, saying that as an elder, he wanted to help Wei Changsheng pack his luggage before he left.Those words were sincere and full of tears.Wei Changsheng was almost moved to the ground, why almost, because there was no movement of giving gifts for several days after Cheng Li finished speaking.

It turned out that he wanted to give such a big gift to himself, and he really underestimated him at that time.

Relying on his cleverness, Wei Changsheng was able to do well in the ritual system, but he still forgot that even Wei Yingcai himself had only been tossed in the mud of the workplace for six or seven years, and he was far from being cunning and cunning. Compared with a thick and dark person like Li.

In this way, could it be that Murong Duan had already seen that Cheng Li was uneasy and kind to him?Will he do his best to oppose him leaving his own notes?

Just as Wei Changsheng felt some joy in his heart, reason jumped out and knocked him on the head again. In the courtroom, Murong Duan could have said a word to defend himself, and completely regarded him as an unkind and unrighteous person.

Forget it, if I eagerly move towards him, it might not be a temptation to protect myself.On the first night in prison, Wei Changsheng couldn't sleep all night.

The cold wind blows in from the cracks in the stone wall, the sound is like a sharp whistle, the dust that falls on the ground is blown up by the wind, floats in the air, and shines brightly under the pale moonlight.In that silent night, Wei Changsheng heard for the first time someone's unwilling roar coming from somewhere under his feet, which made him shudder.

Day after day passed.

Wei Changsheng counted the days, and the grand ceremony should take place in five days. He and the people who secretly contacted him probably made a plan. They found a corpse with a similar height and shape to their own, scratched the face, lit a fire in the cell that day, and left the corpse behind. Next, take advantage of the chaos to rescue himself. At that time, he can pretend to be a government servant, or pretend to be a palace servant to get out of the palace.Anyway, on that day, everyone was devastated by the ceremony, and no one would pay attention to the water leakage incident in the prison and the death of a mere prisoner.

After leaving the palace, he changed his appearance and resumed his spy mission as a new identity. Wei Changsheng believed that this would not be difficult for the elder Beimingzhou who is proficient in profound arts.It's just that at that time, Murong Duan was no longer someone he could contact.

Wei Changsheng lowered his head and touched his round belly, then burped. This plan looks very good.

It's just that the plan can't keep up with the changes. God always gives you a blow in the head when you are about to feel proud.

On the fourth day before the grand ceremony, a group of people rushed into the cell in great force, all dressed in official uniforms, crying and howling. Wei Changsheng watched the anxious eyes of the group of officials sweep over every prisoner in the prison. , and then hurriedly ran down to the depths of the ground. When one person stared at Wei Changsheng, he gasped a few times in fright.

"Your Highness..." "I suffered..."

The voices of chattering came up from the underground stairs like a tide, and the man who was surrounded by the officials was hunchbacked, skinny, with a beard all over his face, and a clump of sparse and withered hair. When he got down, he almost covered his entire face, but he was wearing a silver-white four-clawed dragon-patterned python robe.Wei Changsheng's eyes flickered, and he quietly stepped back a few steps, leaning against the wall, not wanting the group of people to notice him.

That boa robe is a standard that only princes can wear. Could it be that the current prince is being imprisoned at the bottom of this prison?

Before Wei Changsheng could figure out this strange matter, he was released by the Ministry of Criminal Justice the next day.
