When am I normal

"Your Majesty, are we...not practicing martial arts today?" Min Li asked curiously.

Early in the morning, Ji Yao stopped her when she stepped down. She thought it was time to practice martial arts according to the schedule, but Ji Yao took her to a place other than the school grounds. No, she was already seated. In the carriage, Ji Yao still didn't tell her.

Ji Yao rubbed his earlobe with his fingers, squinted one eye, "You'll know when you get there in a while, why are there so many problems?" Min Li kept clutching his chest and huddled in the corner of the carriage, as if he was afraid of being kidnapped by her place.As soon as she got in the car, she asked a lot of chattering questions, which made her ears callused.

When Min Li was about to ask again, the carriage stopped with a whimper, and the curtain was lifted. Amon moved a step and placed it beside the carriage, straightened his back, and half raised his arms.Ji Yao just got out of the morning court at this time, with a high purple and gold crown on his head. In order not to bump his head, he had to bend down and get out of the carriage, and put Amon's hand on the footsteps.

"Sky Prison?" Min Li also came out, standing beside Ji Yao, looking at the heavily fortified gray city wall. Although she had never been to the Sky Prison, she could feel the oppressive and hazy atmosphere.

Ji Yao turned her head and looked at her, "Yes, Heavenly Prison. I want you to meet someone today."

Min Li seemed to understand something all of a sudden, and stopped asking who he wanted to see, and his expression became serious, and he silently followed behind Ji Yao.

Ah Chao put a thick golden robe on Ji Yao's body, "Your Majesty, it's cold inside." Ji Yao shook his shoulders and wrapped the robe.

Min Li didn't bring any maids or guards with her, she tightened the collar of her coat, followed Ji Yao, and went into the prison.

The sky prison is called the sky prison. In fact, it is appropriate to change the name to the dungeon, because it is actually located underground.Amon led a group of royal guards, lighting a torch to open the way ahead, while Min Li followed Ji Yao and was protected by the guards at the front and back. He passed through a long corridor leading directly to the ground, and saw a room surrounded by baby arms. The cell was firmly trapped by thick iron bars.

When it was close to the New Year's Eve, the weather was already very cold, and the further you went underground, the colder it became, it soaked into Min Li's leg bones.Min Li gasped, gritted his teeth, poured his internal energy on himself, and continued to move forward.

Ji Yao walked in front of her without looking back. She didn't stop until she reached a separate cell.

The appearance of this cell is no different from the others, except that it is located extremely toward the inside, and the more serious the crime, the closer the lock will be to the inside. It seems that this prisoner is a repeat offender.The cell was not big, and in the center was a man lying on his back in the straw, wearing only a long-sleeved prison uniform.His hair was messy, and he seemed to be sleeping with his hands on his face.The white prison uniform was full of dirt, and there were bloodstains from the shackles on the wrists and ankles.

"Uncle!" Min Li identified it carefully and exclaimed.

The man moved slightly, moved his hand away with some hesitation, raised his head slightly, and asked uncertainly, "Li'er?" After seeing Min Li's face clearly, the beard on his face trembled, "My niece!"

It turned out that this man was Min Shuqing.It's just that he has been imprisoned for a long time, and with a messy beard, he looks very embarrassed.Seeing Min Li, he was a little excited, and had complicated emotions that he couldn't explain clearly.Although she is still standing in front of him in a state of embarrassment, although she was also one of the members who brought him down, although he is now like this because of her, but this is his only relative in this world , I just don't know if Min Li still recognizes him.

"Min Shuqing, I'm really stunned by your cheekiness that breaks through the sky." To put it bluntly, she has never fully trusted Min Li, and this is thanks to Min Shuqing after all.It is really shameless to drag my niece into the water and dare to admit it now.

Min Shuqing lowered his head and said in a low tone, "The sinners see the emperor."

Ji Yao snorted coldly, "Hmph, I think you don't want to see me at all."

Min Shuqing didn't reply. Now that he is in prison, Ji Yao is the judge of his fate. He knows how much danger he has taken and what crime he has committed. For him, seeing Ji Yao is like seeing death.

"It seems that you still don't know how to repent." Ji Yao narrowed his eyes, "Min Shuqing, I brought Min Li here today, so you must know what's going on."

Min Shuqing sat up propped up, and did not kneel down when he saw Ji Yao, "The emperor overestimated the criminals, I don't know, I really don't know."

Ji Yao snorted and laughed, "Forget it, I opened the stone anyway."

Hearing this, Min Shuqing got up from the ground and wanted to crawl over, but he was stuck in the middle of the road with heavy shackles on his feet. He lay down on the ground, grabbed Ji Yao's skirt with his hands, and was wrinkled by Ji Yao. Eyebrows opened, "You opened the stone?! You opened it!?"

Ji Yao looked displeased, "Yes, I opened it."

Min Shuqing was startled, and was silent for a while, then suddenly burst out laughing, "Ha, hahaha! It seems that you are here to show off to me today? To show off that you can kill Rong Hao in one fell swoop, right?"

Although Min Shuqing was smiling, his face was terribly ferocious, and Min Li beside him frowned and turned his face away.Ji Yao was not frightened by him, but instead pulled one corner of his mouth and snorted, "Min Shuqing, I'm not here to show off, Rong Hao? It's just a small villa, and I will get rid of it sooner or later, and it has nothing to do with that stone. She looked sideways at Min Li who was slightly stunned, "I just came to see your joke."

"A joke?" Min Shuqing paused, then laughed again, "Yeah, it's a joke!" Thinking of him as a bastard, he was just a product of his father's lust for a long time and his maidservant, but with his own hard work, one step at a time. It's not a joke to climb up to the host position of the villa in one step, but now tripped by the little emperor again.

"Min Shuqing, do you really think that there is a way for the royal family to destroy Rong Hao in that broken stone?"

"What do you mean!?"

"Ha, Min Shuqing, you stupid pig!" Ji Yao chuckled twice, "I'm just laughing at you for being stupid, you have no brains! You have been fooled for so long!"

Min Shuqing stood up and stared at Ji Yao with wide eyes, "Ji Jingtan! What's going on, please explain clearly!"

"Presumptuous! You can call the emperor's name directly?" A Zhao who was on the side glared at him angrily.

"Hmph, anyway, you are only a dying person, the most courageous." Min Shuqing lay on the ground again, with his face pressed against the cold, dark and dirty ground.

"You don't want to know, what's inside the stone?" Ji Yao threw out the words to lure him.

This is his pursuit for decades, but now Ji Yao has broken it, how can it be possible to say that he doesn't care.Min Shuqing gritted his teeth, "What's the use of knowing now."

Ji Yao raised the corner of his mouth, and there was no trace of sympathy in his smile, "It's all right, but you have a wish, don't you?"

As uncomfortable as swallowing a jujube stone and being unable to move up and down in his throat, Min Shuqing stiffened his neck, "Yes...I want to hear it."

Ji Yao smiled as if he knew he would say that, "Then let me tell you, there is nothing inside the stone."

Min Shuqing raised his head, stared at Ji Yao, his fists were shaking, "You are talking nonsense! You are talking nonsense! Ji Jingtan, don't try to lie to me!"

Ji Yao walked slowly back and forth in front of the cell with his hands behind his back, "Although there is nothing in this broken stone, I can't get the so-called Rong Hao's handle given by my ancestors. But, it's really thanks to you, Min Shuqing, who attracted I took a trip to Yu, and I have really gained a lot from this journey!" Ji Yao looked sideways at Min Li, who kept his head buried in silence, "I specially called you here today, just to let you two uncles and nephews come together. Get up and testify."

Sweat broke out on Min Li's forehead, and he was a little flustered when he was called on suddenly, "Your Majesty, I am so focused on the work of Futai that I really don't know about the villa."

"Really, you don't know about the false accounts of Ronghao Villa?" Ji Yao moved closer to Min Li, "Rong Hao bribed county magistrates all over the country, searched for children with good looks, and transported them to Yucheng. clear?"

Min Li's eyes widened and his mouth was slightly open.

Min Shuqing interrupted Ji Yao, his face was sombre, and his voice was lowered, "She really doesn't know."

Ji Yao frowned angrily, "Min Li, you are the young master of Ronghao Villa, how can you not know anything about the villa's affairs!"

Min Li didn't dare to answer.

Min Shuqing opened his mouth again, "Your Majesty, she really doesn't know anything, I did everything alone."

"Min Shuqing, you don't have to speak for her. Even if she is not convicted, Ronghao Villa will not escape punishment. Do you really think she can protect Ronghao Villa for you?"

Min Shuqingqu got up and knelt down on the ground, "Your Majesty, Min Li really doesn't know about this, it's not the deliberate favoritism of criminals!"

Ji Yao snorted coldly, "Min Shuqing, you still have the nerve to speak for others, think about yourself first! Those children were forced to be sent to Yucheng, and many people were injured, sick and died on the way! I'll see how you repay them. ! Even chopping off a hundred of your heads is not enough!"

Min Shuqing lowered his head, making it difficult for people to see his expression clearly.

"Those are all children under fourteen!" Ji Yao's throat was choked and his eyes were slightly moist, "You have a father and a mother, but they don't have one!?" Ji Yao gritted his teeth and snorted angrily. , threw off the robe and turned away.Ah Chao and Amon, with two teams of guards, closely followed her to protect her.

Min Li slowly shifted his eyes to Min Shuqing, saw him and raised his head slightly to look at himself, "Uncle, thank you." Min Shuqing tried her best to prove her innocence when she was dying.In fact, she couldn't tell what her attitude towards Min Shuqing was.Both her parents died early, and she was only a child, and because of her status as a young master, she had to take on the responsibility of a huge villa.There is no one else to rely on, only Min Shuqing, who is the second uncle, has been teaching her and taking care of her. Although he grew up and understood the true purpose of all his actions, those warm cares in childhood, But she didn't want to believe that it was all hypocrisy.

She was so naive when she was a child, she never imagined that her loving uncle would take every step of the way to seize the sovereignty of the villa.Thanks to Min Shuqing's careful teaching of her, she finally became an opponent who could contend against him.What a sarcasm.

"Li'er, actually...... Uncle knows that you have planted eyeliner in my other courtyard."

Min Li was slightly taken aback, "Yes."

"Actually, uncle is not only for himself, although it is meaningless to say this now. But uncle really wants to continue to carry forward the mountain villa left by your ancestors, so that you can become a talent in your own right." Finally, if you want to talk about the mountain villa that you fought so hard for, in the end, it will still be given to Min Li, or Min Li's children. "The little emperor is still too young. She kept saying that there is nothing in the stone, but she still couldn't fool me."

Min Li closed her eyes and shook her head, she didn't know about Shi Shi, and she didn't want to know about it.If the emperor insisted on doing this, she could only follow the holy will and not disobey.

"Li'er, you must protect the villa and the painstaking efforts of your ancestors."

Min Li sighed, "Uncle, take care of yourself on the road."

"Min Li, you!"

"Uncle, the emperor has already said that there is nothing in the stone, so don't waste your efforts."

"Min Li! You! Are you going to let your grandpa's hard work go to waste!"

Min Li turned his back to him, "Uncle, goodbye. Min Li will send someone to see you off." Min Li closed his eyes and sighed, followed Ji Yao's pace and left.

This farewell is eternal life.
