(Stupid underdog x smart attacker).

Boss Yu of Xuanhu Tavern was captured by officers and soldiers led by Lord Liu. It was said that he had committed the crime of liaison with the enemy.

The prosperous and peaceful times of Daliang Dynasty have been gone for a long time. In recent years, enemies have invaded, barbarians have also invaded the border, and many areas have suffered from drought for many years.

Even the people of Daliang said that it was God who wanted to destroy Daliang.

When Boss Yu was captured, all the women waiting to be married in Chang'an cried their eyes out. Boss Yu of Xuanhu Tavern was a young son-in-law. Not only was he young and promising, but he also had taverns and assets all over Daliang.

Such a rich son-in-law, arrested for the crime of "having secret dealings with the enemy" at a time when the national prestige was in turmoil, might not even be released.

In prison, Qi Yan received his meal and ate on a wooden chair in the dim light.

In this life, he was just an ordinary jailer, with a low position, but a lot of things to do. He had no father or mother, no relatives or friends, lived in the big shop of the government office, ate the big pot of the government office, and what did he have? It should be the few silver ingots in his small lockbox.

That was his monthly salary, although it was not much, but he only had one day off a month, how else could he spend the money? So he simply saved it.

Just after eating a few mouthfuls, there was a sound of iron chains at the gate. Qi Yan raised his head and saw Lord Liu from the government office walking in with great dignity, followed by five soldiers. In the middle of the five people was a man in fancy clothes with handcuffs and iron chains on his hands and feet.

"Greetings, Lord Liu." Qi Yan saluted stiffly. Lord Liu waved his hand and said, "Arrange a cell for him and make sure to keep an eye on him. This is a wanted criminal appointed by the Prime Minister. Don't make any mistakes!"

Qi Yan nodded, walked around Lord Liu and came to the man, just in time to meet his gentle smiling face.

"This jailer is so handsome." The man said, revealing a few white teeth: "I'm so jealous!"

Qi Yan glanced at him indifferently, and then silently reached out and touched his face: "Really..."

"Pfft..." The man couldn't help laughing: "The boy is really funny."

Lord Liu glared at the man fiercely, and stretched out his hand to hit Qi Yan: "What are you still standing there for?! Lock him up!"

After being scolded by the leader, Qi Yan took the bracelet from the soldier's hand with some grievance, and walked inside with the man in gorgeous clothes.

He didn't see the flash of interest in the eyes of the person behind him.

There are too few people who commit crimes in Chang'an. After all, no one dares to be an accomplice to the tiger under the emperor's nose. The prison that Qi Yan is in charge of has a total of twelve cells, six on each side, and only seven of them are full now.

Following Mr. Liu's words, Qi Yan led the man in fancy clothes to the innermost cell. Qi Yan was not idle along the way.

"Qi Yan, you have a new person under your command?" This was shouted by the bearded man in cell number one.

Qi Yan looked straight ahead and replied calmly, "Yeah."

A skinny guy in cell number two: "Hey, he looks rich... No, why does he look so familiar? Could he be some lady's gigolo who couldn't hide himself and was sent in by his master? Hehehe..."

Qi Yan: "I don't know. It's useless to guess so much."

A scholar in cell number three who was trapped in a literary prison: "Mr. Qi Yan is still so boring."

Qi Yan: "Yeah, interesting jailers are hilarious."

"Hey, Qi Yan, when do you say we should hold a welcome party? We should hold one every time there are new people coming!"

"Yes, yes, there's no need for anything else, just better food that day!"

"Qi Yan, you should also apply to that damn Lord Liu to get some benefits for us prisoners?"

...

Almost every time Qi Yan passed by a cell, he would hear a familiar voice coming from inside, all directed at Qi Yan.

Yu Xi's eyes flashed with surprise, he seemed to have not expected that these prisoners would get along so well with this little jailer.

"You only know how to ask for benefits every day, I'll send a beauty in for each of you next time."

With a dull face, Qi Yan's voice was very low when he said this, and others did not hear it, but Yu Xi, who was following closely behind him, heard it clearly.

Alas, he thought that he would suffer a lot after entering the cell, but he did not expect... this place gave him a different kind of fun.

Cell number 12 is Yu Xi's. After Qi Yan locked the door, he inserted a wooden sign engraved with "Yu Xi" into the groove of the door.

"Your name is Qi Yan?" Yu Xi scanned the prison cell, turned around and saw that the young prison guard had not left yet, so he asked with a smile: "My name is Yu Xi, and my courtesy name is Yasheng. You can just call me Yu Xi."

Qi Yan glanced at him and after a long time he murmured: "Young Master Yu."

Yu Xi raised his eyebrows and continued to ask: "It seems that you get along well with the prisoners here?"

"I haven't gotten along with them..."

Qi Yan hadn't finished speaking when the corridor was filled with complaints.

"Qi Yan, you really hurt our hearts!"

"Yeah, think about the time when you were bullied by those bastards, who pretended to be a ghost in the middle of the night to scare them all away?"

"Qi Yan, you little brat, I treat you as my son!"

"You actually said that we have never gotten along, that's too much! Next time, newcomers, you can ask us directly about this kind of question. Qi Yan, this little brat is so cold-hearted that even a life-and-death friendship can be described as a casual encounter in his mouth!"

...

Yu Xi narrowed his eyes slightly, hiding the gleam of light that flashed in them. This kind of response and appeal is really a waste of talent.

Qi Yan turned over as if he was rebuked. He turned his head and raised his voice slightly: "Alright, alright, we've been together, okay?"

"Oh, you're so perfunctory!"

"Mr. Qi Yan, you have to speak nicely, otherwise those uncles won't let you go."

"I wanted to marry my precious daughter to you..."

After distinguishing the last voice in the noisy voice, Qi Yan's face turned red instantly, and his calm and confident look just now disappeared. He quickly lowered his head and shouted: "Don't talk nonsense, you are all liars who want to marry me your daughter!!" After

the words fell, there was silence in the prison...

After a long time, as if the play button was pressed, laughter came from all over the place.

"Hahahahahahahaha...!"

"Oh, you are still a little kid. You blush and get shy when you talk about women."

"Hahahaha, I will use this sentence to tease him next time!"

Amid the laughter, Qi Yan's face turned redder, and even his neck and ear tips were red.

Seeing this, Yu Xi also laughed without hesitation.

Qi Yan, a little prison guard, is almost the most "favored" prison guard in the twelve cells he is in charge of.
