Chapter 2736 Dungeon
Bai Shan thought about it and decided to drink all the wine in the glass. If he got beaten, drinking would probably reduce the pain a little.
He did not struggle. As soon as the Goguryeo soldiers came in, he stood up tactfully and saluted the second prince of Goguryeo before walking out with them. He did not need to be escorted by them.
Prince Gao Er was not happy at all and became even angrier.
There were only a few dim lights in the dungeon at this time, and I could hardly see the road under my feet.
Bai Shan and Daji went down to the deepest part and felt it was very cold and gloomy inside.
Bai Shan walked and looked around, but he was not very nervous. He would definitely not die anyway. Prince Gao Er would not kill the envoy of Jin State, especially when he was at a disadvantage.
So the person who took over saw him so relaxed and at ease, and couldn't help but look at him twice. He asked the soldier who sent him down, "Who is this man and what has he done wrong?"
He really knows how to entertain.
The soldier said, "This is an envoy from the State of Jin. The prince wants us to treat him well."
Bai Shan smiled and nodded at the other party, saying kindly, "Thank you."
Prison boss: ...So when you say treat well, does it mean "treat well" or do you really treat well?
Bai Shanze had already found a place to live for himself. He pointed to an empty cell nearby and asked, "Are we going to live here?"
The jailer couldn't help but be surprised, "You're not nervous at all, this is a dungeon."
Bai Shan smiled and nodded, "I know. I just told the truth and angered the Second Prince. I deserve to stay in the dungeon for two days. The two countries are in contact, and the Second Prince will release me, an envoy, anyway."
When the jailer heard this, he looked at the soldier who was escorting him. Seeing that the other party didn't say anything, he knew that Bai Shan was right, so he didn't dare to take action.
He simply turned sideways to open the cell, pushed open the door and said, "Go in."
Bai Shan stepped in, and Daji followed closely behind.
The jailer closed the cell with a snap, turned his head to look at the soldier, nodded and smiled, "Don't worry, I will treat him well."
Soldier: ...He vaguely knew that this was not the result the Second Prince wanted, but he also knew that Bai Shan would eventually get out, and when the time came for reckoning, there would definitely be a group of people who would suffer, and he might be one of them.
Now the jailer had misinterpreted the Second Prince's meaning. He hesitated for a moment but still did not correct it. Never mind. The people above were fighting. Anyway, he had already conveyed the message as it was. If there was a problem, it was either because the jailer was stupid and failed to understand the Second Prince's meaning; or because the Second Prince did not express himself clearly, causing the people below to misunderstand.
This has nothing to do with him.
Bai Shan smiled and glanced at Daji.
Daji reached out from between the fences, grasped the soldier's hand, and said coldly, "Thank you for your escort, sir. You have worked hard tonight."
When the soldier held the hard object in his hand, the hesitation and entanglement in his heart disappeared. He nodded randomly and left with his men.
After going out, he took a look at it in the firelight. The thing in his hand was orange and as thick as a finger. His heart was pounding. He pulled his companions and whispered, "We will divide it after we go out."
The others hadn't seen military pay for a long time, so seeing the money was like seeing anything else, and they nodded repeatedly.
When Bai Shan saw them leave, he gestured to Daji to the jailer standing nearby.
Daji felt around and finally found a piece of gold. He stuffed it into the jailer's pocket and said, "Could you please bring us something? There's something in this room..."
Seeing the gold, the jailer's eyes widened and he nodded repeatedly, saying, "Please wait, sir. I'll have someone prepare it right away."
He took the gold and couldn't help but take a bite. After confirming that it was real, he left with a smile on his face.
After a while, he and his men came back with things, including quilts, pillows, wooden basins and barrels for washing, and even a piece of soap, which were all very good things in the prison.
The noise here woke up everyone in the cell next door, and they all looked at them with wide eyes.
The prison boss smiled and personally made the bed for Bai Shan. Turning around and seeing all the prisoners looking at him, he immediately scolded them, "What are you looking at? Go to sleep. If you don't want to sleep, I'll drag you out to get some fresh air."
Everyone immediately lay down, but their eyes couldn't help but look over here.
Bai Shan glanced over indifferently, smiled at them and nodded.
This is his second time in jail.
He straightened his clothes and sat on the bed, breathing a sigh of relief. It was a close call, he finally didn't get beaten. He didn't know if he would be beaten tomorrow. He hoped Manbao could hear what he said and that Prince Gao would have no time to bother with him tomorrow.
Daji had already searched the entire cell and came back and said, "Master, do you want to sleep?"
Bai Shan said "hmm", thinking that he should get enough rest at this time, review what happened today, and think about what he should say to save his life when he sees someone next time.
Daji helped him take off his hair crown, Baishan took off his clothes and lay down in the quilt wearing only his underwear.
The quilt is not new, although it is not very old, but it has a unpleasant smell.
From childhood to adulthood, Bai Shan always carried his family's quilt even when he went to war. Although the outer bedding was old, the inner quilt core was new, soft and odorless.
Bai Shan felt a little disgusted, so he frowned and asked Daji to bring the clothes over. He first spread a layer of clothes next to his body and then lay down. However, he was unwilling to cover the quilt to his neck, only to his chest.
Daji knew his problem, and when he saw that he had made room for him, he took off his shoes, socks and outer clothes and lay down directly.
Not only the prisoners, but also the jailer and the guards were secretly observing Bai Shan. They were astonished to see that he had so many requirements even for sleeping.
The jailer felt the gold in his hand with great awe, and felt that his luck had come.
Daji also quietly said to Bai Shan: "Master, we are too generous."
Bai Shan closed his eyes and did not move, saying indifferently: "Money is something outside of the body. It's enough to keep your body and life. Don't worry about it." Moreover, except for the clothes, everything on his body was his, from the jade crown to the jade ornaments, nothing was his, and he didn't feel sad at all.
Daji: "... Mainly because it happened suddenly and I didn't have much money on me."
Bai Shan opened his eyes and asked quietly, "How much stuff do you have left?"
Daji said depressedly: "The gold is all used up, and there are still a few pearls in the sleeve pocket. I don't know how long we will stay here."
Bai Shan breathed a sigh of relief and said to him, "It's good to have the pearl. If not, I still have the jade pendant and jade crown. Don't worry, we will be able to get out in two days."
These things are mainly used to maintain their decent life in prison.
Manbao exhaled and said to Keke, "Bai Shan is so pitiful."
Then stand up.
Koko asked her, "What are you going to do?"
"I'll go find Duke Zhao." Bai Shan said it would be best to attack in the early morning, so let's do it. Prince Gao Er will definitely not be able to sleep tonight, and many people will not be able to sleep. The front line is not well prepared, so it's best to take action now.
See you tomorrow
