Fang Jie leaned against the iron door of the stone room, looking at the two flying fish robes outside through the small window of the iron door and asked: "Big brothers, what time is it now?"
Fei Yu Pao standing on the left looked at Fei Yu Pao standing on the right. The look in his eyes meant that he was asking you. The flying fish robe on the right looked up at the roof, pretending not to hear anything. This young man has absolutely no consciousness of being a death row prisoner. He has been talking to them since morning. Either leaning against the door and talking, or pulling the chair to the door and squatting on it, he actually tried to move the stone bed to pull it to the door, but luckily he couldn't.
Why is it so dark? Is it going to rain? The sun never shines in this fucking secret room all year round. How can you tell what the hell the sky is like?
??Brother, do you think you already have two sons? Damn, does the fullness of heaven and the radius of earth pavilion have anything to do with having two sons?
Brother, what workshop did you make this flying fish robe from? The craftsmanship is pretty good. I will have to check it out when I go out. If the quality is good, I plan to place a big order with them. My grandma you are almost dead, do you know? What is a big order?
Fang asked many such boring questions, and he seemed to be tireless and never had a moment to relax. The two flying fish robes stood outside the door but did not dare to leave at will, suffering a lot.
When Fang Jie asked, neither of them answered. Fang Jie actually didn't notice anything outside. He stretched his hand out from the gap in the iron bars of the small window, grabbed the collar of a flying fish robe and continued to ask: "Brother, what time is it now?"
"Ahem"
Feiyupao, who was being dragged by his clothes, turned back to the other party with a smile and said, "Master, can you let go? Can I go out and show you now? Look, it's still pitch black even if the sky is clear outside. Without a light I couldn¡¯t walk three steps without hitting a wall.¡±
"That's well said!"
Fang Jie sincerely praised: "Brother, you have literary talent. I have a few poems, how about you listen to them first?"
"I'd better go and show you the sundial"
Feiyupao broke away from Kai Fangjie's hand and ran outside quickly. If it weren't for the instructions from above that this young man must tolerate whatever he did, give him whatever he wanted, and was not allowed to torture or scold him, the two of them would have been unable to resist going in and being whipped. In this situation, the two of them could only endure it.
One of them left, but it was obvious that Fang Jie had no intention of letting the remaining one go.
"Brother, do you understand literature?"
The remaining Feiyupao's expression was extremely painful. He turned to look at Fang Jie and asked: "Uncle, are you hungry? How about I bring you some wine and food? Poets have to drink some wine when they recite poems, right "
"That's good"
Fang Jie nodded and said seriously: "Also, can you give me pen, ink, paper and inkstone? I want to record my feelings here, bind them into a book and publish them when I get out. I can't make a fortune."
"no problem!"
Feiyupao said as he ran out: "As long as you don't say anything, I will find any girl you want!"
"Really? Then I don't need pen, ink, paper and inkstone. Can I change it to a girl?"
Fang Jie shouted from behind.
oops!
The running Feiyupao almost fell over. He staggered a few times and finally managed to stabilize his body. He dared not answer Fang anymore. He wished he could run to the deputy commander right now to beg for someone else to guard the door. But having said that, the iron door of the secret room is two inches thick. Even a ninth-level practitioner may not be able to break it open with hard force. There is no need for the two of them to guard it. But the deputy commander told the adults to tell him, and kept watching Fang Jie all the time to see how he would react in the stone room. The two of them had been tortured for the past two days, and that guy was simply a lunatic.
After they both left, Fang Jie quickly tore off the lining of his clothes and held a strip in his hand, then pretended to be nonchalant and walked back to the chair to sit down, muttering to himself that fat man can only look at you this time.
He had to bring the news out. Even if he couldn't escape, he had to let Shen Qingshan and the others find a way to escape from Chang'an City. But here he was eating, drinking, and having sex under the eyes of others, and he couldn't do anything. Even if someone comes to see him, such as Professor Qiu Yu, people outside are listening to every word he says, and he can't arrange anything.
Therefore, he must find a way to spread the news. That's why he asked for pens, ink, paper and inkstones, and the paper sent in must have been counted. If there was a missing corner, someone would notice it. So he could only tear off a piece of the lining of his clothes, and it had to be without the two guys outside seeing it.
Even ifFang Jie had to be careful when doing such a small thing. Because there are a few people he cares about in Chang'an City outside the stone room.
Accept fate?
Fang Jie never believed that everyone's fate in this world was predestined, and he never believed that no one could struggle against any oppression. At the very least he wanted to make Mu Xiaoyao and the others safe.

Li Nan died
The old man who knocked away Shen Qingshan with one palm that night died so easily. A ninth-grade strong man who was originally famous in the Sui Jianghu and even the whole world died on Banyue Mountain. If he hadn't blocked Old Monk Zhizhi's all-out blow for the landlady, he wouldn't have had to die. But he knew that the landlady's Qinggong was the worst among them. She had never been good at Qinggong.
When he went west eleven years ago, he met the proprietress earlier than Su Tugou. Just because that battle was so brutal, he was the only one in the Sui Dynasty who retreated from the battle, so much so that Su Tugou, who joined forces with him, was seriously injured. The proprietress who had already had a good impression of Li Nan never looked at him again. After the war, the proprietress carried Su Tugou on her back and disappeared without a trace. Li Nan returned to Chang'an in embarrassment.
In the past eleven years, he has never left Chang'an City.
He was smiling when he died because the landlady said to him, they are waiting for you.
They are the Jianghu guests of the Sui Dynasty who spilled blood on the prairie eleven years ago. It was precisely because of these words from the landlady that Li Nan completed his own redemption. He knew he could go underground to meet his brothers and sisters, and stand in front of them and say sorry.
Regarding Li Nan¡¯s death, the proprietress had no emotion at all. She had always been calm. It seemed to her that Li Nan should die like this instead of living a humble life in Chang'an City.
The emperor looked at the village girl in front of him who had killed enemies for the Sui Dynasty eleven years ago, and he didn't know how to start the conversation. That year when he first ascended the throne, the government was unstable and the country was uneasy. The Mongolian Yuan Dynasty from the west mobilized experts to sneak into Chang'an. The seventh prince Yang Qi, the loyal prince, went west alone, killing Hu Ling along the way. By the time he arrived at the northwest border, there were already countless Hundreds of guests from all corners of the country accompanied him. They originally lived in green forests, hiding in famous mountains and rivers and not paying attention to worldly affairs.
¡°Perhaps even if the imperial court issues an order, they will not leave their homes to face a powerful enemy. But when they heard that Yang Qi had killed Hu Ling, they went ahead with it.
The emperor knew that he owed these people and the proprietress.
"Thank you very much"
After a long silence, the emperor got down from the Tukang, stood in front of the landlady and bowed deeply.
He was the emperor of the Sui Dynasty and the co-lord of the Eastern Central Plains. But he bowed deeply to a village girl without any reluctance.
The landlady didn¡¯t move or stop her.
She accepted the emperor's worship safely.
"I am not dead. I will accept your Majesty's bow for them."
she says.
The emperor straightened up, nodded and said: "When the army marches westward, I will tell the world that it was because of you eleven years ago that the people of the Sui Dynasty could enjoy peace. I know that you have resentment against me in your heart. I should have done this eleven years ago, but it has been postponed until today. Even if I don¡¯t say anything, you should actually understand why I didn¡¯t give you the honor you deserve"
He paused and continued: "Since Emperor Taizu established the Great Sui Dynasty, the greatest trait our Yang family has given to the people of the Great Sui Dynasty is pride. It makes them proud to be Sui people, but it is precisely because of this pride , I had to suppress your achievements eleven years ago. If it were announced to the world at that time that you died fighting to resist the invasion of the Mongolian masters, the people of the world would be indignant. How much pressure would there be to force me to send troops to attack the Mongolian Yuan? It's easy to imagine. But I didn't have the ability to march westward at that time. Once the war started, the Sui Dynasty would definitely be in trouble. But if I didn't fight, I would be a coward The emperor of the Sui Dynasty gave the people of the Sui Dynasty the pride of the emperor. How can you be a coward?"
"I am the emperor, and I have more things to consider than everyone else."
The expression of the landlady did not change at all. She glanced at the emperor lightly and said, "Your Majesty, you are right. When we went west, no one thought about getting anything from the court. When Mr. Xi went west to issue an order to kill Hu, we went there. It's that simple."
It's that simple.
Not for any honor, nor for any wealth. Not for the court, and certainly not for the emperor.
"No one is perfect, but I will never deny my mistakes."
The emperor said.
The landlady was silent for a while and said seriously to the emperor: "Your Majesty wants to thank you, but actually the one who deserves the most thanks is sir."
The emperor nodded and said: "I know that the one I owe the most is my seventh brother."
"When Mr. went west to issue the order to kill Hu, we went with him. If it had been anyone else, we might not have been willing to follow him. Mr. has a very high status in the world, and everyone had no complaints about dying for him. So Your Majesty does not have to have anything to do with us. What a guilty feeling, you owe it to your husband, and he owes you to us."
The boss¡¯s wife said: ¡°It took many years for me to realize that my husband went west just to kill Hu?¡±
She looked into the emperor's eyes and said word by word: "It's more for the stability of your throne, Your Majesty. Many people from the Meng Yuan Dynasty died in that battle, and naturally many people from the Sui Dynasty also died. And so many people died. Man, the biggest beneficiary is your majesty. All the masters that Meng Yuan planned to sneak into the Sui Dynasty were killed, and your majesty can rest assured. Sixty-seven out of ten of the Jianghu people in the Sui Dynasty died, and your majesty can take him to sleep peacefully. Waiting for me to die, in fact, from the beginning, you want to reduce the number of people who can threaten your safety in the Sui Dynasty. "
The emperor¡¯s expression changed, but he did not stop the landlady from continuing.
"Sir, he went west and achieved three things with one stone. Although he no longer enters the court, he has a very high prestige among the courtiers. If he does not leave, Your Majesty will be uneasy. The masters of the Mongolian Yuan Dynasty are ruthless and barbaric by nature, which will not eliminate some of His Majesty's uneasiness. The Jianghu of the Great Sui Dynasty A man with a strong personality who refuses to accept enlightenment makes your majesty uneasy. After one trip to the west, your majesty has been at peace for eleven years. Sir, you should be satisfied."
"So it's still the same sentence, your Majesty owes you sir."
The emperor¡¯s face was unhappy, but he didn¡¯t get angry: ¡°I know, so I have been protecting his things and not allowing anyone to touch them.¡±
"But His Majesty touched it himself."
The landlady said in a slightly cold tone.
¡°What did I touch?!¡±
The emperor's patience was finally about to run out. He looked into the eyes of the landlady and said: "I will not allow anyone to get involved in Lao Qi's property. I will treat Lao Qi's family members, even if they are just a servant, as a noble minister."
"Your Majesty touched his descendant."
The landlady said: "Fang Jie is his descendant."
"Is Fang Jie really the descendant of Lao Qi?!"
The emperor was stunned, with surprise that could not be hidden in his eyes.
"Your Majesty doesn't trust anyone, that's why you doubt Fang Jie. Your Majesty doesn't even trust you, sir, otherwise why would you imprison Fang Jie?"
The landlady leaned forward slightly and saluted: "Thank you for calling me, your majesty. I am a village woman from the mountains and have little exposure to the world. My rude words made your majesty angry. So I resigned and left Chang'an City and returned to Fangu. My husband followed you twice. There is no doubt that you will die if you go west, and the misfortune will be bad even if your old injury is not healed. After I return to Fangu, I will build three earthen graves, one for my husband, one for my husband, and one for my husband."
"Rub the soil in front of the grave to make incense, and tell your husband that you are no longer a heir. The murderer is your majesty."
