Chapter 9
Lu Qi died.

When Gu Shen inspected the cell, he didn't see Lu Qi.

After some inquiries, I found out that Lu Qi died in the prison robbery last night.

He should have died a long time ago, but it was only when Huangcheng Secretary used it as bait for fishing that he reluctantly breathed a sigh of relief.

Such a big move last night, if it spread a little bit, the breath that hung Lu Qi was gone.

However, although Lu Qi was gone, when he was inspecting the various cells, Gu Shen found that most of the cells in the Class A cells were inmates.

This is the group of Yanzhou anti-thief leaders who robbed the prison last night.

The worst prisoner who can be held in a No. A cell is a fourth-rank master.

In the 37th year of Emperor Xuanhe, [-] martial arts heroes on the Green Forest Road in Yanzhou formed a friendship with Jinlan, and raised the rebellion flag in the next month. The momentum was so great that it swept most of Yanzhou.

However, after last night's battle, the Yanzhou Rebel Army was doomed to fail, and nine of the eighteen leaders fell.

Four of them were killed on the spot last night, and five of them were locked in a No. A cell.

The name of the prisoner in Room A No. [-] is Lei Zhen, a second-rank martial artist, nicknamed Yanzhou Taisui.

The name of the prisoner in Room A and No. [-] is Wang Ning, a second-rank martial artist, nicknamed the Killing Gun Demon.

The prisoner in Room A and No. [-] is named Pei Siwen, a third-rank martial arts expert, nicknamed Huanglian Suanni.

The name of the prisoner in No. [-] Room A is Deng Lin, a third-rank martial arts expert, nicknamed Sangmenshen.

The prisoner in Room A and No. [-] is named Jin Weiyuan, a fourth-rank martial arts master, nicknamed the Demon King of Confusion.

"Yanzhou's anti-army is very loyal. In order to save Lu Qi, not to mention all the troops, they also sent out most of their top-level combat power."

Over the past few days, Gu Shen has learned about the warriors of the Dayin Dynasty.

There is only one martial arts master, and that is Dong Sheng, the current general who sits in the capital. Other than that, there is no other martial arts master in the entire Dayin dynasty, at least on the surface.

There are only a handful of masters of the first rank, no more than five fingers, and the envoy of the Imperial City Division is among them.

A first-class master of the second and third ranks can already be said to be able to go to the world.

After the battle last night, plus several leaders who were beaten to death on the spot, there are five first-class masters in the Yanzhou rebels who were sent to prison.

When delivering food to Room A at noon, Gu Shen was extra cautious.

If it was said that his understanding of first-class masters was still relatively vague before, then he really understands a lot more detailedly now.

The cell made of meteorite refined iron was beaten to pieces. Gu Shen felt that if he was hit, he would probably be turned into a pile of minced meat.

Faced with the contempt, curse, and ignorance of the strong people in Fangjia, Gu Shen just smiled slightly.

Gu Shen felt that it would be great if the entire imperial prison was built according to the Class A cells, which absorbed the black matter, and could be used for meditation and cultivation directly, and no one could see it.

Gu Shen also considers that the speed of cultivation can be slowed down. If the environment does not allow it, when it is time to break through the bottleneck, he can practice on his own, so as not to absorb black matter and suddenly break through, causing poor control of internal energy and attracting attention.

After being released from the Yamen, Gu Shen, Xu Yan, and Li Ga went to Zhang Chenggong's home to express their condolences.

There is a white cloth hanging outside the gate of the courtyard, and some people in the courtyard are wearing sackcloth and filial piety.

Gu Shen gave ten taels of silver as silk money.

Ten taels of silver is too much, but Zhang Chenggong takes care of Gu Shen, and Gu Shen also feels grief for Zhang Chenggong's misfortune.

The family members gathered around, with sad faces.

Zhang Chenggong's son is called Zhang Shunli. He is 16 years old this year. He looks somewhat similar to Zhang Chenggong, with dark skin and a thin build.

"Thank you sir."

Zhang Shunli kowtowed to Gu Shen in return, which is the etiquette at funerals.

Zhang Shunli thought that Gu Shen, like Xu Yan and Li Ga, were all Xiaoqi of the Imperial City Department, so he called his lord.

Gu Shen helped the young man up, sighed and said, "When your father was around, he took good care of me. You can just call me Big Brother Gu."

Although the prison guards are not organized by the Imperial City Department, they are also hereditary iron rice bowls. As long as the family is not extinct, their children and grandchildren can inherit it.

When Zhang Chenggong goes, Zhang Shunli will step up.

In a few days, after Zhang Chenggong's funeral is over, Zhang Shunli will be on duty in the imperial prison.

Zhang Shunli wept, "Thank you, Brother Gu."

After mourning, Gu Shen left with Xu Yan and Li Ga.

Xu Yan and Li Ga were going to the Xiaoxiang Pavilion to relieve their heavy feelings, but Gu Shen didn't go with them. When they passed by Dongshi, they bought a jug of wine and five catties of roast beef, and went back to Qiumingfang's home.

There was still snow in the courtyard, and under the plane tree, Gu Shen set up a small table.

After drinking until late at night, he sighed heavily, turned around and went back to the main room.

in the next days.

While practicing on his own, Gu Shen watched Captain Ma torture and serve the strongman in the A-brand cell.

Gu Shen hoped that the strongmen could survive for a while. He has reached the peak of the seventh rank and wants to break through on his own. After breaking through to the sixth rank, he can quickly improve with the help of the strongmen in the A-rank prison.

For these rebel leaders, Gu Shen has both praise and criticism, but he is much more pleasing to the eye than his grandson Zhao Shuang, so Gu Shen will not deliberately make things difficult for them, and will not take the initiative to speed up the death process of these strong people.

He just needs to wait slowly.

After being released from the government office, Gu Shen often went to the Xiaoxiang Hall with his colleagues to enjoy the day's work.

When Gu Shen went to the Xiaoxiang Pavilion, it was really just to listen to the music, and if he was happy, he would give more rewards. As for further work, Gu Shen never did it.

It's not that he cleans himself up, but that he has too many secrets and dare not be careless.

Xiaoxiang Pavilion is one of the top ten brothels in Beijing, not ranked in the top five, but it is quite famous.

The Xiaoxiang Pavilion is not just a skin business, otherwise Gu Shen would not have become a regular visitor here. The Xiaoxiang Pavilion will hold some activities from time to time, and occasionally invite some musicians.

Master Song invited a few days ago is known as the number one pipa player in the south of the Yangtze River, and he played the pipa with one hand so thrillingly that he lingered for three days.

Gu Shen has been there a lot, and the girls there have some impressions of him, especially when Gu Shen goes to the Xiaoxiang Pavilion, he only listens to the music but spends a lot of money. There is no cat in the world that does not steal, but Gu Shen is like A cat that doesn't steal fishy.

In addition, Gu Shen is handsome and has an outstanding temperament, so he is very popular with some girls. Some girls throw olive branches to Gu Shen and invite him to be the guest of honor.

Gu Shen repeatedly rejected the girls' invitations, which really made Xu Yan, Li Ga and others envious and jealous.

However, Gu Shen really just wanted to listen to the music in the Xiaoxiang Pavilion, and relax his depressed mood.

Moreover, Gu Shen discovered that on such an occasion, he could still hear a lot of gossip.

For example, Lu Yuanming in the north of the city is often mentioned. When many people mention Lu Guanren, whether they recognize him or not, they will give a thumbs up.

Distribute all the wealth to save the refugees!
Maybe I don't have a kind heart, but when I see others doing good deeds with kindness, I can't help but admire them in my heart.

There are also some people who are dissatisfied with Lu Yuanming's good conduct, such as some high-ranking officials and aristocratic children.

What Lu Yuanming did was supposed to be done by the elders of the court, but now the elders did not do it, but was done by Lu Yuanming. The people all praise Lu Yuanming, which contrasts with the fact that the elders of the dynasty are eating their own food. These second generations are naturally unhappy .
