Chapter 41

If you are not drunk, everyone will get drunk.

"Eunuch Xu, I despise you and give you a drink."

"Prisoner Hu is welcome."

In the warden's quarters, exquisite and delicious dishes were placed on the table, two jars of fine old wine were unsealed, and the aroma of wine and food filled the room.

The two of them drank each other's faces, their faces flushed.

Xu Boqing was not a good drinker at first, but he thought that he had been in this world for almost two months and had been walking on thin ice, fearing that he might lose his life for no apparent reason.

Now, not only has he gained a firm foothold in the Cining Palace and rescued his second uncle's family, but he has also found a way to quickly break through to the innate world. It should be celebrated!

Therefore, he did not reject Hu Yusi's kindness.

"drink!!"

"My father-in-law is a good drinker!"

Seeing him draining a large bowl of wine boldly, Prison Secretary Hu raised his head and drank the wine in his hand as if he was not to be outdone.

Not only did he make a 'redemption' business today, but he also had an extra 1,800 taels of silver in his pocket. The most important thing was that he was doing a business without any capital. He didn't have to put in much effort, and he was naturally in a good mood.

Of course, he did not forget about the business. Seeing that Eunuch Xu was drinking happily, he asked cautiously: "Eunuch, how is your research on "Hua Gong Dafa" going? Do you need to arrange a few more people to take down the post?"

"I appreciate Secretary Hu's kindness."

Xu Boqing smiled and said: "My "Hua Gong Dafa" is extremely difficult to practice. I'm afraid it will be difficult to achieve the effect by practicing it in three or two."

He paused, then leaned over and said in a cryptic voice: "I will use as many prisoners as Qi Jiacai in your prison today, and you decide the price!"

"hiss……"

Hu Yusi took a sip of cool air through his teeth, his heart was beating fast, and even the drunkenness had dissipated a bit.

As the top prison in Daliang, Tianlao houses thousands of prisoners, and he has been serving as prison director for more than ten years.

Not to mention those who have no memory or have forgotten it like Qi Jiacai, there are nearly a hundred prisoners who meet the standards of the acquired realm!!

With those scum…

What kind of wealth can be exchanged for it!?

Seeing his face turn red and white, Xu Boqing asked with a smile: "Why, Chief Hu doesn't dare to take this job?"

"No, no, no, father-in-law, you misunderstood."

Prison Secretary Hu quickly stood up to help him pour the wine and said: "I have thought about it just now. Those scum in the sky prison are not willing to die. They can help you 'practice'. It is also their destiny, but..."

He paused and said meaningfully: "There are quite a few prisoners who can meet your practice standards. If your practice period is longer, that would be okay. It is normal for people to die in the sky jail.

But if the period of your practice is too short and the time when the prisoners die is too intensive, you may not be able to get the job done."

Xu Boqing was slightly startled when he heard the words 'a bit too much', and subconsciously asked: "Approximately how many people are there?"

"No less than a hundred!"

Seeing that his breathing was stagnant, Prison Secretary Hu quickly explained: "Xia uses force to break the ban, and the dungeon guards in various states and counties are weak and don't have that much energy.

Therefore, most of the captured martial arts masters who have committed serious crimes, but whose crimes are not serious enough to die, will be sent to the Heavenly Prison."

"Hehehe, it doesn't matter, the more the better."

Xu Boqing picked up the bowl and took a sip to cover up the wine in it, and said while eating the side dishes: "Hu Yusheng doesn't have to worry too much, there are fewer people, and there will naturally be more people."

It takes a long time for me to practice this "Hua Gong Dafa". In your opinion, how long will it take to deal with the hundreds of prisoners?"

"One... half a year... half a year is enough!"

Prison Secretary Hu seemed to have thought of something, and said with a slight movement of his eyes: "The environment in Tianlao today is harsh, and plague often breeds. If my father-in-law is in urgent need, his humble position can be shortened by another two months."

"..."

Xu Boqing's eyes narrowed slightly and asked: "How much is the asking price?"

"One hundred taels for each prisoner!"

Prison Secretary Hu was afraid that his asking price was too high, so he quickly explained aloud: "My father-in-law, please don't misunderstand me. These hundred taels are not what I want. Although I am the Prison Secretary of this day, I don't have the final say in Tianlao...

You also need to walk around and check the joints on that side.

Moreover, the funeral affairs of those prisoners have to be handled by the jailers below, and these one hundred taels are the hush money for school inspections and for providing troubles to the jailers below."

There are no less than a hundred people who meet the conditions for practicing martial arts, and each prisoner is priced at one hundred taels. This alone will cost no less than ten thousand taels of silver!!

If Xu Boqing had heard that practicing Qigong would cost so much money, he would definitely have a headache;

But now, the Queen Mother's small treasury has been completely opened to her. These ten thousand taels are really nothing.

"Prisoner Hu, don't worry too much."

Xu Boqing smiled and said: "If I can't trust others, how can I not trust you? Just what you said, one hundred taels!"

"Father is so righteous!!"

Prison Secretary Hu was already blushing and thick-necked from drinking, but he still got up and helped him pour the wine. Then he picked up the wine bowl and said, "I would like to congratulate my father-in-law for his great achievements," and drank it in one gulp.

Xu Boqing didn't hesitate and drank it too.

Just then, there was a knock on the door outside...

After opening the door, Prison Secretary Hu took the list compiled by the jailer, handed it to Xu Boqing, and said with a smile: "The people below have already compiled the list, and I would like to ask my father-in-law to take a look."

Xu Boqing nodded slightly and took over and browsed through it roughly. Even though he was mentally prepared, he was still a little surprised to see the list of one hundred and sixty-three people on the list.

The identities of these prisoners are also varied...

There are pickpockets who steal, thieves who rob others, victims who seek revenge, leaders who rebel, and flower pickers like Qi Jiacai...

Although there are a few heroes in the list who seek revenge for their fathers, mothers, or friends, at a glance, most of them are scum with scars of crime and deeds that are hard to describe.

I don't know if it was because of drinking.

He looked at the list in front of him in a trance, thinking about the term "a chivalrous man uses force to break the forbidden", and wondered whether he would become such a scum when his power was unrestrained.

Won't!!

Xu Boqing shook his head and suddenly lost interest in drinking. He returned the directory in his hand and stood up to look at the sky outside...

"It's getting late. I'll be coming out of the palace every now and then. Just make arrangements for the personnel. Remember the money required and calculate it at the end of each month."

"I humble my position and take orders."

Prison Secretary Hu nodded quickly, stood up and asked, "My father-in-law is going back to the palace?"

"I have to go back before five o'clock."

Xu Boqing shook his head and went out without explaining anything.

And Prison Secretary Hu also knew the rules in the palace. The business was done today and the private affairs were settled. There would be a lot of money in his pocket in the future. Seeing that the rich man was about to leave, he quickly got up to see him off...

It is September now, and there is a gentle breeze in the evening.

After Xu Boqing returned to Cining Palace, he wanted to go to Mr. Huang to pay his respects, but seeing that Mr. Huang's lights were out, he had no choice but to give up.

When he arrived at the Queen Mother's palace, he found that the lights in the palace had been extinguished and the nuns at the door had been dismissed. This made him a little surprised that the Queen Mother went to bed so early today...

However, he pushed the door open without thinking much.

The palace is hung with curtains as thin as gauze. Although the lights inside are extinguished, through the moonlight one can still vaguely see the charming figure lying on the side of the phoenix.

'My beloved concubine~I'm coming~'

Xu Boqing smiled slightly, passed through the curtain, took off his clothes under the urging of alcohol, and then skillfully got into Fengtan.

He put his arms around the beautiful woman's shoulders from behind. For some reason, he felt that the body of the beautiful woman in his arms seemed to be shaking violently, accompanied by a slight squeak.

"Cold?"

He leaned close to the beautiful woman's ear and gently rubbed her ear, and whispered comfortingly: "It won't be cold in a while."

Suddenly, he was slightly startled.

He stared at the ear of the beautiful woman in his arms with surprise. An earring with gemstones was clearly visible in the earlobe, but Queen Mother Chen did not have any earrings!!

Wrong, the size is wrong too!!

Xu Boqing's pupils shrank, and he squeezed his hands subconsciously. Most of the hazy drunkenness used to add to the fun dissipated in an instant!!

He quickly turned the beautiful woman in his arms around. Under the moonlight, Liu Guifei, who had met once during the day, was lying shyly and timidly in the place that should belong to the Queen Mother Chen!!

He stood there dumbfounded, looking a little at a loss.

"Liu...um..."

Before the words could be spoken, Xu Boqing's eyes widened and he found that his mouth and tongue were sealed by two thin lips, and a pair of jade hands were wrapped around his neck. The silky fragrance had dissipated in his nose.

Lost drunkenness.

Wine does not intoxicate people, people become intoxicated by themselves...
