Chapter 546: showdown
This person was extremely generous. He not only rewarded the jailers guarding the cell, but also brought delicious food to the jailers.
Youdao is short with the hand of taking people, but soft with the mouth of eating people.
After this group of simple jailers got money and food, their favorability for this visitor increased gradually, and their tone of voice became much better, and their attitude became very flattering: "Xiao Shizi, you go this way... "
"Xiao Shizi don\'t have to worry, we allow prison visits, and also allow prisoners to send food and daily necessities..."
"Don\'t worry, Mr. Xiao. With us watching from the sidelines, as long as no one is interrogating Mr. Pei, we will definitely not let Mr. Pei lose a single hair."
"Huh? Do you want to stay with Mr. Pei for a while? For an afternoon? To stay until the evening?"
Xiao Junji glanced at the jailer, and asked seemingly embarrassed: "Is this not allowed?"
The jailer looked at Xiao Junji now as if he was watching a live God of Wealth giving money, and after a moment of stupefaction, he hurriedly said: "Ah, no, no, no problem, really no problem."
But soon, the jailer lowered his voice and flattered: "Xiao Shizi, there are rules in the sky prison. Normally, people are not allowed to visit the prison in the sky prison. Even if you visit the prison, you can only stay for half a stick of incense. But you are different. , we all think you are a good person. So, we can accommodate you a little bit."
Xiao Jun understood it with all his heart, and without saying a word, he gave additional rewards to the jailers.
The jailers were so elated that their eyes almost turned into gold ingots.
After dismissing the jailer, Xiao Junji bowed and walked into the cell.
Although he traveled with the servants, he entered the prison alone.
At this moment, he was carrying a big burden slung across his shoulders, and against his fairy-like clothes, it was a bit ridiculous.
His sweetheart is still sleeping, sleeping soundly, curled up on the bed wrapped in a quilt, like a silkworm chrysalis.
Xiao Junji walked lightly to the edge of the bed and sat down, took off the big package on his shoulders and put it aside, then supported his cheek with one hand, quietly admiring others sleeping.
It took some time before Pei Yi lazily opened her eyes.
As a result, when she opened her eyes, she saw this magnified handsome face, which made her stare wide open in fright.
Then, she blinked her eyes again, as if she felt that she had misread.
After a while, her sluggish head, which had just woken up, gradually started to turn, and finally said uncertainly: "Ah Heng?"
"Hmm~" Xiao Junji responded with a smile.
Pei Yi felt a little sleepy.
She sat up with the support of the bed, and asked curiously, "When did you come?"
Xiao Junji turned his head and glanced at the jailer outside.
The jailers collected enough money, and they were all very happy and interesting at the moment—they all hid away, as if they had taken the initiative to leave enough space for the two of them to be alone.
Xiao Junji withdrew his gaze, smiled warmly and said, "I just came."
Pei Yi thought of this man sitting on the side watching her sleep, felt a little embarrassed, and asked embarrassingly, "Why didn\'t you wake me up when you came?"
Xiao Junji looked at her like a little daughter-in-law, and said honestly: "I\'m afraid that if I wake you up, you will beat and scold me."
Pei Yi immediately retorted: "Am I that unreasonable?"
Xiao Junji didn\'t speak, just looked at her so aggrieved.
Pei Yi completed her self-examination in this gaze.
All right.
Although she didn\'t have any urge to get up at first, since she returned to the capital to become a politician, she got up earlier than a chicken every day.
For now, she seems to be a little angry when she wakes up.
Pei Yi changed the topic in embarrassment: "When you came, how was the situation outside?"
Xiao Junji stared at her intently, his eyes were indescribably gentle, but when he talked about other things, he said in a mocking tone: "I heard that Princess Zhenguo\'s mansion has been turned down."
Pei Yi was astonished, and asked, "What happened to Princess Zhenguo\'s mansion?"
Xiao Junji stared deeply at his sweetheart, and said with a bit of sarcasm: "Princess Zhenguo begged His Majesty to send you down lightly. Your Majesty was furious and severely reprimanded Princess Zhenguo. Princess Zhenguo returned home Afterwards, I cried a lot and fell ill—of course, what I just said is just hearsay, and I can’t guarantee how true or false it is.”
Pei Yi lowered her eyes to think carefully, her face was solemn, but she didn\'t make any comments.
However, Xiao Junji snorted coldly full of disdain, and teased: "The third prince hasn\'t said anything yet, but Princess Zhen Guo is having a lot of fun. Could it be that this woman who became a monk halfway could care more about your situation than the third prince?" ?”
Pei Yi Pili Yangqiu smiled noncommittally.
Xiao Junji brought over the big bundle that had just been placed in the corner of the bed.
Pei Yi watched as the man untied the bag in a hurry, and there were a lot of things piled inside, almost all the daily necessities were prepared—even the bronze mirror was prepared for her.
For a moment, she felt like a modern college student living on campus, and Xiao Junji was a boyfriend who came to deliver supplies to her.
Ah, bah bah bah, what a nonsense metaphor.
"You even brought the candlestick..." Pei Yi picked up a copper candlestick and looked at it, with unstoppable shock on her face.
"I heard people say that there are no lights in the prison at night, so it\'s very gloomy." Xiao Junji took out an amulet from his pocket and hung it around Pei Yi\'s neck, saying solemnly, "This amulet is for exorcising evil, so as not to be caught by those unclean people." entangled with pickled things."
I don’t know how many people died in the prison, and most of them died unjustly, and they died terribly.
After years and months, a place like a prison cell is full of resentment and eerie.
However, if you have the right way, you don\'t talk about it.
Pei Yi never believed that such a thing existed.
She is not afraid.
However, she looked down at the amulet hanging around her neck, and didn\'t say anything about not being afraid of gods and ghosts. She only felt warm in her heart.
She thinks that Xiao Junji, the boss, is really too careful in handling things—it can be said that he can consider it, and he has considered it for her.
Pei Yi watched the man sort out the items one by one from the package, his eyes changed from shock at first to numbness, and then to extreme shock, his face full of disbelief.
"You even brought the lampshade???" Pei Yi looked at the plain mesh lampshade with complicated emotions.
It’s no wonder that Xiao Jun’s meeting has such a big burden, but it’s no wonder this man stuffed all these miscellaneous things into it.
"If there is no lampshade, wouldn\'t the lamp go out when the wind blows?" Xiao Junji explained solemnly while placing all the things on the table, "The lamp is blown out by the dark wind at night. Oh, how scary."
Pei Yi thought about the scene, and it was a bit creepy.
She put on her shoes and got up from the bed, and packed up with the man.
As a result, she was clumsy and knocked over the candlestick that had just been placed as soon as she passed.
"I\'m sorry..." Pei Yi apologized with guilt all over her face.
"It\'s okay." Xiao Junji comforted her very gently, and naturally straightened the candlesticks and rearranged them.
Pei Yi helped to take things out of the package again, but when she pulled the package too much, it directly caused the contents inside to fall out.
Pei Yi looked at the pile of things that fell on the ground, and she froze on the spot, her eyes widened slightly at first, and then she shrank back nervously, as if a child did something wrong and was worried about being scolded by her parents Same.
Xiao Junji couldn\'t help but find it funny seeing her like this.
Seeing the man looking at her, Pei Yi stammered, seemingly confidently: "Yes... they became like this by themselves! They are going to fall to the ground by themselves."
Xiao Junji couldn\'t help laughing.
He bent down and picked up the things one by one from the ground, and said with a helpless smile: "My eldest lady, just sit down, and I will clean it up."
Pei Yi was very embarrassed when she heard the ridicule of "Miss", but somehow felt a little sweet.
She was very sorry, and she stood stiffly by the side and looked down at the man picking up things, and insisted with a very responsible face: "I can help you on the side."
Xiao Junji raised his head to look at her, smiled helplessly, and said in a good voice, "You\'d better sit down, I can clean it up by myself."
Pei Yi originally wanted to insist, but it\'s not that she couldn\'t understand the man\'s implication: Miss, you can only do a disservice to me, so why don\'t you come and make trouble for me?
Pei Yi felt embarrassed, so she went back to the bed and sat down resentfully, watching the man busy there.
That baggage is huge, and there are many things in it.
Xiao Junji not only had to tidy up all the things, but also had to arrange them in the cell by category, which took a lot of time.
Pei Yi watched silently, her mood became a little delicate.
She inexplicably felt that she was like a husband who did not give birth, while Xiao Junji was like a hard-working housewife—and the kind of housewife who was good at housework.
Looking at it, Pei Yi\'s eyes widened suddenly, and she stood up boldly.
"You, why... you put... it down!"
Pei Yi rushed over, her first reaction was to take that thing back from the man\'s hand.
Xiao Junji put the thing back, smiled wickedly and said, "Don\'t be nervous, Xiao Pei, I will clean it up for you."
"You..." Pei Yi originally felt that her face was getting thicker day by day after entering the political situation, but when facing this group of big shots, her face seemed to be getting thinner day by day.
She said in embarrassment: "This kind of thing... I can just clean it up myself."
Xiao Junji saw that her pretty face was flushed with embarrassment, and he couldn\'t bear to tease her any more, so he put the thing back, and said softly, "Then you can clean up these personal things yourself. "
"Yeah." Pei Yi blushed and nodded, feeling extremely ashamed in her heart.
She really didn\'t expect that Xiao Junji even prepared her underwear.
Girls don’t have bras these days, but they have underwear.
When Xiao Junji was arranging her obscene clothes in earnest, she really felt as if her bra was being held in the hands of a man, and she couldn\'t even mention how awkward it was.
Blushing, Pei Yi took out the clean obscene clothes, only to find that a menstrual belt was pressed under the clothes.
At that moment, she only felt as if a bullet hit her head with a "bang", and her whole body was about to split and explode.
Ahhhhh! !
Why did Xiao Junji even prepare such things for her? !
Pei Yi\'s inner villain is already grabbing her hair and throwing herself up to the sky, collapsing and roaring.
But she really has nothing to blame Xiao Junji for this kind of thing—because it is indeed her necessity.
only…
When Pei Yi thought that these things were packed into the bag for her by the man himself, the heat on her face couldn\'t be dispelled, and the shame in her heart couldn\'t go away.
Xiao Junji folded and rolled up the already empty baggage, and said gently: "This time I only brought urgently needed things, next time I will bring you some small furniture..."
Pei Yi felt more and more like she was on vacation.
She stopped immediately: "It\'s fine now, don\'t be too ostentatious."
Xiao Junji smiled and said: "So what\'s wrong with swaggering? This is a sky prison, how many people can get in? Who dares to say you?"
Pei Yi felt that this boss was really crazy.
However, she felt that the boss was right.
After all, the cell is just a cell, not a wing for people to live in.
There are no extra benches here—the chairs next to the crude table look tattered, and they seem to collapse after sitting on them.
Xiao Junji glanced at the chair in disgust, and sat down next to his sweetheart by the bed.
He said: "I\'ll have someone prepare a new set of tables and chairs for you."
Pei Yi didn\'t have so many needs in the first place. At the beginning, she saw that there were tables and chairs in the cell—no matter how simple the tables and chairs were, she didn\'t care. She was just pleasantly surprised.
Now, after hearing what the boss said, she felt belatedly—indeed, things can’t just be there, they have to be usable.
"However, what does it look like when you send a lot of furniture to the dungeon?" Pei Yi asked with a complicated mood.
Xiao Junji smiled unconsciously, and joked: "How can I be so stupid? I can give things, but I won\'t give them so blatantly."
Pei Yi knew that she was worrying too much.
The two sat together, and suddenly no one spoke anymore. It was quiet, and the atmosphere suddenly became charming.
Pei Yi saw that the man in front of her was getting closer and closer to her at some point...
Her heartbeat suddenly quickened.
She remembered that she had kissed Xiao Junji before—at that time in Linhe County, Xiao Junji was about to leave but wanted to test her details, she had no choice but to go along with the situation and belittle Xiao Junji.
At that time, she was generous and generous, and she didn\'t feel embarrassed afterwards.
But now for some reason, she became shy instead, inexplicably shy.
Seeing that the man was about to kiss her lips, she suddenly saw a shiny cockroach climb onto the bed, and then crawled along the edge of the bed onto Xiao Junji\'s hand.
Pei Yi\'s eyes widened instantly.
She was about to speak to remind this man, but unexpectedly, the man in front of her reacted faster than her—almost the moment the cockroach crawled onto her hand, Xiao Junji looked down at her hand.
Then, she saw Xiao Junji as if being poked by someone, and immediately jumped up from the bed, and then flicked and flung that hand desperately, his handsome face was so frightened that it almost deformed.
Seeing the panicked look of the man, Pei Yi felt a little complicated.
She stood up with a calm face, then walked in front of the man with a calm face, then slapped the cockroach off the back of the man\'s hand with a calm face, and then trampled the evil little thing to death with a calm face Son.
Then, she calmly shouted to the outside of the cell: "Brother, can you bring a broom here? There is a dead cockroach here, so I need to clean it up quickly, otherwise it will be full of little cockroaches later."
Hearing this, Xiao Junji suddenly became ill, and his handsome face turned pale with fright.
He didn\'t dare to lower his head to look at the ground at all, he was about to get goosebumps all over his body, he followed behind Pei Yi tremblingly, it was extremely difficult to even move his feet.
Not long after, the jailer came over with a broom.
Pei Yi was about to reach out to pick it up, but the jailer went straight to clean it with a broom.
He smiled fawningly and said, "I\'ll do this kind of thing for you."
After all, the jailers are very happy now that they have taken the money. They are happy to show courtesy to Mr. Pei—as long as Mr. Pei is well served, the God of Wealth, Shizi Xiao, will give them another bunch of rewards if he is not sure.
The jailer moved very quickly, and quickly finished cleaning and retreated.
Only Pei Yi and Xiao Junji were left in the cell.
After such a small episode, there is no romantic atmosphere in the room at all.
Pei Yi couldn\'t help laughing out loud when she saw the man\'s overly frightened little appearance.
She teased viciously: "Are you afraid of cockroaches?"
Xiao Junji\'s fair and clean cheeks slowly turned red.
He added with great shame: "How can this be called fear? I just...hate cockroaches. Such a disgusting guy looks dirty."
Pei Yi found it amused when a man described a cockroach as a "guy".
She smiled and nodded jokingly, "That\'s right. You are a clean freak, and dirty things like cockroaches are really annoying."
Xiao Junji\'s handsome face flushed red.
He pulled the man into his arms, glared at him and said, "You\'re still laughing at me!"
Such a posture inevitably became ambiguous.
Pei Yi\'s heart skipped a beat.
The sticky atmosphere that had just dissipated because of the cockroaches came back again.
Seeing that the other party lowered her head to kiss her again, Pei Yi supported Xiao Junji\'s chest.
Xiao Junji frowned slightly, looked at her with a hurt face, and asked clearly in his eyes: Are you still unwilling to accept me?
Pei Yi sighed softly, and said with a bit of guilt: "I\'m very playful."
Xiao Junji was stunned.
He never thought that such a sentence would suddenly come out of the other party\'s mouth—although he always thought that his sweetheart was kind, but when the sweetheart really admitted it, it was another matter.
Pei Yi gently pushed the opponent away, took a step back and widened the distance.
She said calmly: "One couple for a lifetime is indeed a beautiful promise."
"However, I don\'t think I can be so long-lasting."
"If you can only face one person in your life, I\'m afraid you will get tired of watching it no matter what."
"It is actually against human nature to insist on making people change their minds for the rest of their lives."
"Since it is against nature, many rebellious things will naturally arise, such as taking concubines, keeping concubines, and eating flower wine."
"Under the condition that monogamy does not change, this kind of rebellion will not be blocked."
Xiao Junji listened silently, his face becoming more and more gloomy.
Well, he is not only looking at a woman with a heart, but also a woman who can complete the logic and self-consistency—I will tell you with confidence: my old lady is going to cheat, this is the natural ethics!
And what this girl did was right, what was wrong was the marriage system!
Who the **** told you to be monogamous?
This is simply against human nature.
As long as the current marriage system does not change, it is impossible to ban cheating.
Xiao Junji listened to the so-called "Declaration of Emancipation", and really felt that he was going to faint from anger.
But these silly words seem to be quite reasonable, and he has no way to refute them.
"So, Ah Heng, I\'m really sorry, I can\'t promise you anything." Pei Yi said guiltily.
Xiao Junji twitched the corner of his mouth stiffly.
He felt that he really beeped a dog.
Everyone else is an infatuated woman who meets a heartless man.
How did he become an infatuated man and a heartless woman.
Oh, no, it can’t be said that his sweetheart is a heartless girl, she told you clearly: this girl is such a person, if you can accept it, we can try together. If you don\'t accept it, then we should not get along, so as not to worry you and me.
Xiao Junji\'s head almost exploded.
He originally thought that he would be able to coax his sweetheart to fall in love with him by dangling in front of Pei Yi all day long.
I never thought that his sweetheart is extremely calm and tenacious—no matter how chaste and strong he is, Miss Pei just doesn\'t insist on keeping her body like a jade.
Xiao Junji thought over and over again, and asked very unconvinced: "Since Xiao Pei can\'t just fall in love with me, then naturally I can also get along with others?"
Pei Yi\'s eyes turned cold, and she said expressionlessly: "Since you want to get along with me, then you are my person—you are my person, but you want to hook up with others. Is this to give me a cuckold?"
Xiao Junji\'s chest was filled with anger immediately.
He almost laughed angrily, pointed to his nose and said: "You can be nice to others, but I want to defend you like a jade?!"
Pei Yi didn\'t think there was any problem with this, and she took it for granted: "Aren\'t all the families in Kyoto who married multiple husbands like this?"
When she first came to this world, she was also shattered by this couple system.
But as time went on, she saw too many girls married their husbands, and his father and mother spent all day trying to find a husband for her, and they were particularly enthusiastic about helping her marry her husband.
Pei Yi gradually accepted this system.
She said calmly: "If you can\'t accept it, you don\'t have to stop following me. You can marry a wife and have children by yourself, and you can even have a whole house of concubines. But if you want to follow me, then you have to keep festivals for me. "
Xiao Junji was choked and speechless.
He felt aggrieved.
But he had no words to refute.
Ahhh!
This bad woman!
