Chapter 121 2 Duck is a troublemaker!
Ye Shengxin was right, there was indeed some movement.
In the pitch-black environment, three hungry men looked at Erya, who was following the jailer and walking to their cell door with his butt swaying.
I couldn't help but swallow my saliva.
[The duck that Xiaoya brought back from Cui Fu's house was quite delicious. What should I do if I want to eat it again? ]
Erya, who was struggling to squeeze into the cell door, inexplicably sensed the danger and let out a hoarse "quack".
When Huangdou Eyes saw the strong greed in Ye Shengxin's eyes, his body just squeezed in.
The second duck blinked its eyes and suddenly stopped working. It flapped its wings and flew towards Ye Shengxin, pecking at him.
Damn it, trying to eat it, pecked her to death.
"Hey, hey, hey, Erya, I was wrong. I won't eat you. It's my fault. Don't peck me."
“Ga ga ga ga…ga ga…”
Ye Xingxin was pecked by the fierce duck in the cell and jumped up and down. He did not forget to ask for help: "Little Duck, please help me."
Emperor Jingming wanted to help, but just as he raised his arm, Ye Xingxin said:
"I'm not the only one who wants to eat the duck, why are you pecking at me?"
Emperor Jingming withdrew his hand and said, "Well, there is no need to save this man."
Ministers:...
Lord Ye has such a good habit that he never forgets to hold me back even after losing his memory.
"Ah, it hurts, is Erya's mouth made of a knife...hiss...stop pecking, sir, I was so wrong!"
“Ga ga…ga…”
As soon as the man and the duck met, they started a big fight. All the noise in the cell came here. The bailiffs were surprised to see this, but they didn't scold them.
After a cup of tea, the noise in the cell gradually stopped and the bailiffs dispersed.
Ye Shengxin sat on the ground with a feather from Erya on his head.
Opposite him was Emperor Jingming, who was holding Erya in his arms and combing her feathers.
Putting aside her little grudge with Erya, she said, "Luoshan should have known that we were arrested."
"Erya was able to get in because of Huang Youwei's connections, otherwise the yamen runners wouldn't have ignored it."
Emperor Jingming had figured out the problem as early as when he saw the second duck. Now he felt around the second duck's body with his fingers and found a small bamboo tube at the base of its legs covered by feathers.
Starlight came in from the window. Seeing this, Zhang Liang turned his head left and right, alert to the arrival of the yamen runners.
But that didn't happen. The yamen runners were all in a rest room far away, playing finger-guessing games and drinking loudly, and no one was walking around to patrol.
Emperor Jingming took down the bamboo tube, unplugged it and took out the note inside. There was only a row of crooked words on it.
——Save the person at midnight tomorrow night, and the donkey will be safe.
The skylight magnified the contents of the note. The ministers, who were forced to work overtime in the palace out of fear for the emperor's suffering, saw the contents of the note clearly and breathed a sigh of relief.
Zhao Zhentian said with relief: "He is indeed my chosen disciple. Just because he dares to take risks to save His Majesty, I can't push him away no matter what I say."
Zhao Zhentian became more determined to accept disciples, which made many civil and military officials with lower official positions envious.
He is just a peasant, but he has good luck because of his talent in military strategy and the time he has spent with His Majesty. I think of his bright future.
I shed a few bitter tears for myself who is still struggling to get a promotion.
The Grand Tutor also said: "This child has excellent character and is brave enough to take risks for his friends. He is worthy of close friendship."
Ye Xingxin: "It seems that Big Donkey and Little Donkey have gone back to find Luoshan after escaping. But how are they going to save us?"
Emperor Jingming's eyes were deep: "Hao Duanzhuang is beside Luoshan, they will definitely make arrangements, we will act according to circumstances."
Zhang Liang nodded. This was all he could do.
Ye Xingxin looked at the two of them and whispered, "I hope there are no accidents."
Emperor Jingming's heart skipped a beat: "What did you say?"
"No, I didn't say anything."
The prince looked at the queen, feeling uneasy: "Mother, did you hear what Lord Ye said?"
The Queen shook her head: "The voice is too soft."
-
Late at night, the three of them couldn't resist their sleepiness and fell asleep one after another.
Erya was sleeping in the corner. Suddenly, his head fell to the ground and he woke up.
A pair of bright black eyes blinked in the middle of the night, and the head shook again and again.
It's hungry.
The duck pushed itself up with its paws, swung its butt, and squeezed out of the prison door, heading towards the cubicle where the bailiffs were resting.
The young eunuch in charge of surveillance in the court noticed the movement in the sky and called out softly to wake up the ministers who were sleeping soundly on mattresses in the court.
The prince rubbed his eyes and wondered what the duck was doing. Why did the sky split in two because of it?
Prime Minister Shangguan clenched his fists and said in a worried tone: "Your Highness, this duck may cause trouble."
The ministers had the same idea, and then they saw Erya coming to the place where the yamen runners were drinking and playing finger-guessing games.
The four yamen runners on duty were drunk and fell into a deep sleep.
It used its duck paws to step on the bodies of the yamen runners and fluttered onto the table. After eating the leftovers, just when the ministers thought it would leave.
Its yellow eyes looked at the shining keys hanging on the waists of the yamen runners.
It pecked at it tentatively with its duckbill; it was hard and not tasty.
But the "ding-ling-clang" sound was pleasant and Erya was very interested.
Under the gaze of the ministers who were holding their breath, it pecked several times and directly pecked the key off the body of the yamen runner.
The ministers stared at the faces of the four yamen runners, their hearts pounding violently.
Fortunately, the four drunkards were not woken up.
Erya was half full and wanted to go back.
It held something that interested it in its mouth, swaying its butt as it came to Ye Shengxin's cell with a "ding-dong" sound.
Along the way, many prisoners who were sleeping lightly were awakened.
They all lay down in front of the wooden railing, silently watching Erya swinging the key in his mouth, and were amazed.
The ministers were in despair.
This duck that carries the message is truly a nuisance!
This incident made it so that the yamen runners who had lost their keys would not dare to neglect their duties the next night.
Ye Xingxin, Zhang Liang and Emperor Jingming in the cell heard the sound of the key shaking and woke up before Erya came over.
Now watch it holding the key and squeezing into their cell under the gaze of the prisoners.
The three of them fell silent.
Meeting the staring eyes of the prisoner across from him, Emperor Jingming moved his lips, wanting to say that it was none of their business, but his mouth wouldn't open.
Ye Xingxin looked at the key at her feet, feeling a little depressed. She said in a hoarse voice:
"Little Duck, if we say we are innocent and call the bailiff to return the key, can they just pretend that this never happened?"
Before Emperor Jingming opened his mouth, the prisoner in the cell across from him said in his moderately loud voice:
"You three are truly masters of pet taming. You grasped the timing of taking the key just right."
Three people:......
Ministers:...
This is all a misunderstanding, a huge misunderstanding!
After the prisoner's brother finished praising him, he asked again, "You three are trying to escape from prison?"
The culprit, Erya, blinked his yellow eyes and looked at Ye Shengxin and the other two with an innocent face.
He is very much like a villain who is trying to please others and then waiting for praise.
