Prime Minister of Great Qin

Chapter 31 Partition Walls Have Ears! (For collection, for follow-up)

The next day.

In the small courtyard in the prison, Hu Hai walked alone.

The weather has begun to turn cold, and a thin layer of mist hangs in the sky.

After Hu Hai walked for a while, his mind still couldn't understand, he wondered: "My majestic Mr. Qin, why should I look at Ji Heng's face?"

"He is also a death row prisoner, how can he bargain with me?"

"What's the point?"

"If I hadn't been angered and sent to prison, with his noble status, he wouldn't have the right to see me at all."

"The reason why I invited him to have a meal with him was mainly because the prison was boring and I saw how talented he was, so I let him come over. Why now, it seems that I am begging him?"

"If Zhao Gao was here, how could I let you go?"

"You're not being good-looking when you get cheap, do you really think I, Hu Hai, are easy to bully?"

Hu Hai snorted coldly.

No matter in terms of status or other aspects, he is more noble, how could he be blackmailed by Ji Heng?

Hu Hai frowned, staring at the high wall, but still couldn't figure it out.

a long time.

Hu Hai sighed dejectedly.

"Ugh."

"That's all."

"A dying man, an invincible man."

"Why should I care about a dying person?"

"Although what he said last time was alarmist, it is not unreasonable."

"Currently Zhao Gao is being held in Tingwei Mansion Prison. The circumstances involved in the case seem to be very serious. Meng Yi should still investigate and deal with it. I'm afraid it's impossible to ask Zhao Gao to give me another idea in a short time. Let's let Ji Heng do it again for the time being. Enjoy a few days."

"It's just killing time."

"I don't know if Father's anger has subsided."

"I've been locked up for almost a week, and staying in this prison is really boring."

"I really don't know when I can go out."

Hu Hai stood there for a long time, and finally turned back.

On the way back, he thought of what Ji Heng had said these few times, and gradually came to his senses, frowning: "That's not right, what Ji Heng said these few times only talked about the situation in the world and how the father paved the way for his elder brother. But that has nothing to do with me."

"I asked him to figure out a way for me."

"I want to go out."

"I even wanted to save Zhao Gao."

Thinking of this.

Hu Hai stopped, looked around, called the yawning jailer over, and said, "Where is Ji Heng, take me there, I have something to look for him."

The jailer didn't dare to be negligent, and quickly walked forward to lead the way.

in prison.

Now it's time for the eclipse.

Ji Heng stretched his waist, walked to the prison door, stretched out his hand, and brought in the food from the prison door.

A piece of rice cake, a bowl of cold water.

He just sat at the cell door, with his back leaning against the cell door, biting into small mouthfuls. The rice cakes were very dry, and it made his throat a little louder after eating.

Ji Heng didn't care.

In this era of low productivity, it is not easy to have a stutter.

How many people work hard for a year, just for a few rations.

At this time.

When Hu Hai arrived outside the prison, he frowned slightly when he saw the rice cakes Ji Heng was eating, but he didn't say anything, and ordered: "Open the prison door, I'll go in, and have a chat with Ji Heng."

The jailer nodded repeatedly.

He wasn't worried about an accident.

During this period of time, Ji Heng and Hu Hai had seen each other often, if something really happened, it would have happened long ago.

And they'll be waiting.

Hu Hai stepped into the prison, and Ji Heng's cell was filled with a faint decaying smell, which was not pleasant.

Ji Heng was aware of Hu Hai's arrival.

But it was ignored at all.

Hu Hai took a few glances, a hint of sarcasm appeared on the corner of his mouth, and said proudly: "Ji Heng, now you know how I treat you? As a death row prisoner, if I were not open-minded, how could you eat mutton in prison? Got some good wine?"

"With your humble status, you still bargain with me?"

"Do you really think you have the qualifications?"

Ji Heng crushed the glutinous rice cake in his mouth, swallowed it with cold water, then closed his eyes, and fell asleep leaning against the prison door.

Hu Hai's face darkened.

Displeased: "Ji Heng, don't go too far."

"You have to figure out your identity, you are now a death row inmate."

"In less than ten days, I will be killed!"

"I'll entertain you with delicious food and drink in front of me. You should at least treat me better."

Ji Heng opened one eye, glanced sideways at Hu Hai, and sighed, "Tell me, what do you think?"

Hu Hai's expression froze.

He hesitated for a while, seeing that Ji Heng was about to close his eyes again, took a deep breath, suppressed his displeasure, and said in a cold voice: "I want you to treat me better. No matter what I say, I haven't treated you badly. What you said last time was a little more serious, but you still didn't say the whole thing."

"Get to the point." Ji Heng said.

Hu Hai glanced at the jailer at the side, and made a wink. The jailer immediately understood, and quickly walked a few steps outside.

At this time.

Hu Hai said in a deep voice:
"Ji Heng, I want to discuss something with you."

"It is whether you can say something useful. What you are talking about now is useless to me. I have been locked in prison for a week. You have to find a way to help me out."

"You can't just eat and drink, don't help me!"

After listening, Ji Heng closed his eyes completely, and said lightly: "I decide what to say, this is the rule set early."

"I'm just a prisoner."

"I don't have the ability to get you out."

"in addition."

"You give the wine, I'll tell the story."

"Even if I tell you, do you really understand?"

"The current situation in Daqin is not that simple. Undercurrents are surging inside and outside the court. Those who are in it are good enough to protect themselves wisely. Under this coming chaos, sometimes, doing more may not be right, or even doing less. Wrong, not doing good, is the right thing to do.”

"What I'm telling you is the general trend."

"But all sentient beings are trying to survive under the general trend of the world."

"If I show you a 'clear way', then I'm really hurting you."

"Because you don't have that ability!"

Hu Hai frowned, slightly displeased.

He said angrily: "Then according to what you said, I will do nothing?"

Ji Heng said: "You can prepare more wine."

heard.

Hu Hai has black lines all over his head.

He knew that Ji Heng was fooling himself.

"Jijiujiu, how did you know about wine in a day?"

"I'm in prison now, if you don't get me out, how can I get you wine?"

"I used to give you a lot of wine!"

Ji Heng said:
"This is your business."

"I'm running a small business, one or two stories and one or two wines."

"You give me wine, and I'll open my mouth."

"No wine"

"Then let's not talk about it."

"And if you want, I'll give the lecture again."

"Two jugs of wine are necessary."

"Two pots?" Hu Hai raised his voice and said with wide eyes, "Why don't you grab it."

Ji Heng looked very calm, and said: "Two jugs are already fair, you scolded me last time, if I hadn't ignored the past, three jugs might not be enough."

"in addition."

"If it's just for you alone, a jug of wine is enough."

"But it's far more than just one person now."

"There are far more than one person, what does this mean?" Hu Haihu asked.

Ji Heng looked at the wall, smiled meaningfully, and said softly, "Because the wall has ears."
