The Emperor was kissed by the Regent and cried again

"This...that...she..."

Shen Jingli was sweating. Looking at Lord Qiu's attitude, if he didn't let him get his partner today, he would be hard to escape from his clutches.

Shen Jingli didn't want to be annoyed to death by Qiu Zhi, so he gritted his teeth and started to make up stories.

"She...is dead..."

Lord Qiu was so frightened that his eyes almost fell out, "What did you say!?"

"Don't get excited. She died of joy. Her remains look very happy."

"What...what's going on?"

Shen Jingli made up a story: "That's right, I... I introduced you to her, and when she heard it, she was so happy that she wanted to see your portrait. It would have been fine if she didn't see it, but when she saw it, she was so happy that she fainted on the spot. The doctors in the room were so crowded that they couldn't save her."

Qiu Zhi's voice trembled: "Did this officer... kill someone?"

Qiu Zhi's train of thought was very strange. Shen Jingli was afraid that he would get stuck in a dead end, so he continued to deceive him: "Sir, please don't let your imagination run wild. This can only be blamed on your excellence. Who wouldn't be confused if they were to date a promising young man like you, right?"

Qiu Zhi's mind was buzzing, and he looked up at the sky. "It seems... being excellent is a mistake, and being handsome is also a sin."

Shen Jingli quickly agreed, "That's right! So, I don't dare to be a matchmaker for you anymore. It could kill someone in a minute."

"Hey, where are the girl's family? They must be very sad. I must go and comfort them."

Shen Jingli didn't expect that Lord Qiu wanted to visit the other party's family to express her condolences. She choked and her brain was working at high speed, almost burning out the CPU.

Where can I find someone for him?!?

"Actually...she...? She's an orphan...yes, she's an orphan so she has no family."

Hearing about the tragic life story of the girl, Qiu Zhi shook his head repeatedly and almost fainted, "Where is the grave? I want to go and pay my respects in person."

Shen Jingli's pupils trembled, "You don't have to go, sir. Don't let Lehuo die. It will be bad if he pretends to be dead."

Qiu Zhi's eyes were firm: "I must go, even if I have to pretend to be a corpse."

Shen Jingli looked up at the sky with hopelessness. It was over. There was no way back!

"Tell me! Where is the grave?"

Shen Jingli whispered: "You'd better not force me to say..."

"Tell me! Where is it? I must go there!"

……

When passing by Qingshan Village before, Shen Jingli happened to see a dog cemetery with no words on the tombstone. She told Qiu Zhi the approximate location, and she didn't even dare to look Qiu Zhi in the eye when she said it.

"In fact, it's best if adults don't go. If adults must go, then bring more bones."

Qiu Zhi was shocked: "That girl... also eats bones?"

Shen Jingli smiled but his face was not smiling, and continued to talk nonsense: "Ha... That's right, eating bones can supplement calcium. If you eat more, your skin will be good and your body will be healthy."

"Okay! Goodbye."

After he finished speaking, in the blink of an eye, Qiu Zhi disappeared on the street. Shen Jingli sighed deeply and said to himself, "What kind of bad fate is this...?"

----

After Shen Jingli calmed down, she took out the silver she had prepared in advance and bribed the officers and soldiers in the secret prison. Soon, she was led to Gao Yunyi's cell.

The person who appeared before her was a little boy who was about the same age as herself. Shen Jingli once wondered if the officer had led her to the wrong place.

"Sir, are you mistaken?"

The officer clasped his hands together and said lazily, "Gao Yunyi, no doubt about it. He's a famous person. Let's talk about it quickly. If someone finds out, no one will be happy."

After saying this, the officer left.

Gao Yunyi was still leaning against the wall in a daze, but when he heard his own name, he looked over and asked, "You... are looking for me?"

Shen Jingli stepped forward and grabbed the wooden fence, and asked, "Are you really Gao Yunyi?"

Gao Yunyi stared with big eyes and nodded repeatedly, "Yes, it's me, it's me, it's me."

Shen Jingli tilted his head slightly, still skeptical, "You are their eldest brother? Why does it feel like your age doesn't quite fit?"

The man in front of him looks to be only seventeen or eighteen years old. How could he be the leader of a village?

"I don't care about such details. I have a baby face and don't look my age. But, actually, I'm not that old either. I'm only 23 years old."

Gao Yunyi suddenly looked around and asked in a low voice, "Did someone send you here?"

"Someone has indeed entrusted me to rescue you. Don't worry, you will be able to get out tomorrow."

Gao Yunyi looked at the not very masculine little boy in front of him and asked in disbelief: "Are you here to break out of prison?"

Gao Yunyi looked Shen Jingli up and down, not understanding why his brothers would choose such a person to break into the prison.

After thinking about it carefully, he finally understood that maybe the village was really out of money, and his brothers could only hire this type of person to come and break into the prison.

Shen Jingli waved his hands and said, "No, no, no, jailbreaking is too exciting. I don't recommend it. The thing is, the government will no longer pursue the books you copied, and you can print them freely in the future."

Gao Yunyi was skeptical: "Really?"

"Why would I come all this way and spend money to cheat you?"

"So you came here just to tell me that all this is your credit?"

Shen Jingli nodded proudly: "Yes, yes, it's all my credit."

"Oh…"

Gao Yunyi said "oh" lightly and nothing else happened. Shen Jingli noticed that the atmosphere was not right.

How come this is different from what I imagined?

"Aren't you touched at all? Right now...shouldn't you be yelling about...repaying me or something like that?"

"If it weren't for me, you would have been in jail for years."

Gao Yunyi stroked his chin and shook his head meaningfully, "I think we can skip this step. Just tell me what you want."

Shen Jingli cleared his throat and said, "Well, I told you, I want a lot, don't be afraid."

"I disagree. We have the same type."

"Hit your sister?! Who wants you?"

"What?! You dare to hit my sister?"

Seeing Gao Yunyi looking like he was about to eat someone, Shen Jingli quickly explained, "No, no, don't get me wrong, I am indeed a homosexual and I am not interested in your sister."

Gao Yunyi's eyes were filled with pride: "It seems that my hunch was right, you also like men! But let me make it clear in advance that we are not suitable. Our styles are too similar. We won't be happy even if we are together!"

"Don't worry, I don't like your style either."

"That's good."

Shen Jingli suddenly became serious: "You don't know that the Deer Spirit Flower is about to wither."

"You know everything about the Deer Spirit Flower?!"

Gao Yunyi was shocked. The divine flower was precious and rare, so how could his stupid brothers tell everyone about it?

"I know everything. The Deer Spirit Flower was eaten by flower-eating insects and almost died. But don't worry, I saved it. The Deer Spirit Flower can only last for two or three days at most. Go back as soon as you leave the secret room tomorrow and don't delay anything."

Gao Yunyi said gratefully: "Okay, thank you very much."
