Chapter 74

Chapter 74 Replacement

The next day,

The autumn night is quiet, with only the slightest sound of wind.

Tan Sihan was sitting in the yard, playing chess with himself. Bai Xi took out a cloak from the house and put it on Tan Sihan and said, "Master, it's late at night, it's time to rest."

Qin Sihan didn't move, just hummed, and a chess piece still fell in his hand.

"I remember that there is a letter from Ji Xuan in the room. Go take it out and invite Miss Fang to sit down." He was a little bored sitting there, but he didn't want to sleep either.

"Yes, sir." Bai Xi responded and did not leave. He just glanced at the guard standing at the door. The guard handed over his hand and opened the door and went out.

Bai Xi then entered the room and handed the things out and put them aside.

"Why, are you ready to monitor me every step of the way?" Tan Sihan turned around and asked.

It's been a whole day and he hasn't done anything. His eyes seem to be glued to his body.

Bai Xi said without hesitation: "My subordinates serve you and should be at your mercy."

He is really sharp-tongued. He did not run out this time. Next time, they will only watch more closely. It is like this every time.

In autumn, it was really difficult for him to go out. He was used to swimming in mountains and rivers. If he was asked to do nothing and stay in a courtyard for three months, it would be better to kill him.

Bai Xi also knew it very well, so he had to watch him, even if he was a slave, he couldn't let him sneak out, get a rash all over his body, couldn't sleep, and be assassinated again, then...

Bai Xi really didn't dare to think about it, so when autumn came, he would see everything Qin Sihan did. Even if he couldn't see it, he would still have enough people left behind.

In just an instant, Fang Wu came over.

She didn't sleep during the night shift. When she heard Qin Sihan looking for her, she found a yamen servant to take her place, and then came to Bazi Hutong.

Qin Sihan heard a babbling sound and looked up. The person was wearing an official robe. His hair was neatly combed into a ponytail. He strode towards him, causing a lot of dust to fly in the yard.

She looked around and saw that the trees in a yard were all withered, and there was no trace of yellow or green. Even the morning glory vines on the wall didn't have a single flower.

She remembered that she looked like this when she came in yesterday.

"Miss Fang, these books and letters are all here." Tan Sihan pushed the pile of things forward.

Bai Xi brought a cup of tea and bent down to place it opposite Tan Sihan.

Fang Wu sat down and took a general look. The pile of things was about half a meter high.

There were so many this time, and she was a little stunned.

"Master Qin, are you sure this is all sent by the master?" Fang Wu was stunned, wondering how she could take it back.

"Yeah." Tan Sihan nodded and continued to play chess with himself.

Fang Wu looked at it and saw that, just like last time, there was a letter on top, which had not been opened, and there were books on the bottom.

There are those that solve cases, including humanistic geography, and some geology in other parts of Daman, and even agriculture and forestry, etc. It’s very complicated. It’s like this every time. She has been looking at it.

So far, he has been teaching her well so that she can become a better official.

"Sorry, sir." Fang Wu put the envelope back and said.

"It's them you should thank. I'm just a messenger. Find her a bamboo basket." Qin Sihan looked at the people in the yard and ordered Bai Xi.

Isn't that right? As soon as he entered the gate, there was one, and there was another one on the hall door. At the door of the side room and the door of the bedroom, Bai Xi behind him,

There are also on the roof, I don’t know how many there are, there are really three steps, one post, five steps, and one sentry.

Bai Xi agreed, brought a bamboo basket, helped Fang Wu put it away, and then pushed it behind Qin Sihan.

"How about I play chess with Mr. Qin for a while?" Fang Wu said.

Tan Sihan asked: "Can you tell which side is at a disadvantage?" Tan Sihan was very good at chess. Everyone in the court played chess with him, and everyone lost.

So gradually, Tan Sihan just played the game by himself.

Fang Wu was stunned and lowered her head. She couldn't see that the two sides were anxious and evenly matched. For a while, they couldn't tell a winner. So she shook her head.

"Let's forget it. We still have some fruits in the kitchen, right?" He refused and turned around to ask Bai Xi.

"yes."

"Go get it and use it with Miss Fang and me. Let's put the chess game on the other side first."

"Yes, Master." Bai Xi nodded, placed the chessboard firmly on the swing beside him, and came out with some fruits.

Strawberries, grapes, lychees, and even mulberries that are out of season look frozen and still very fresh.

"Sit." When Qin Sihan saw Bai Xi put down his things, he wanted to step back and ordered again.

"This... subordinate, can you squat?" He asked, but he didn't want to sit on the stone bench after standing all day.

Qin Sihan gave him a disgusted look, not caring whether Fang Wu minded or not, and said, "You're a worthless thing, so be it."

Bai Xi then folded his hands and squatted on the stool.

Fang Wu took a sip of tea and said, "Maybe the stool is a little cold."

Qin Sihan handed a strawberry to Fang Wudi and said: "Miss Fang, my slave does not need you to protect me."

When he spoke, he had the aura of a king,

Fang Wu blinked to show his understanding. Seeing that Qin Sihan had also started eating, he started to eat. When he turned around, he saw that Bai Xi had also started eating.

It's peaceful here, but in the county jail, it's not...

As soon as Fang Wu left, the prisoners inside had a quarrel. This was not a big deal and happened from time to time.

The substitute yamen officer picked up the match, lit his cigarette, and went to the cell. He had to stop the noise.

"You must be you. You stole the steamed buns I saved. You came in because you stole something." A prisoner put his hands on his waist and pointed at the prisoner opposite through the cell door.

The prisoner was not that big and huddled in the corner. No matter what the person opposite Ping did, he did not speak and just held his stomach.

Generally, prisoners who come in because they steal things will be hungry for three or four days.

In the past, when locked inside, there was only one lunch meal, so the portion was relatively large. Therefore, many people would hide the lunch meal and save it for the evening.

"Tell me, is it you, isn't it?" Seeing that he ignored him, the prisoner strode over, stretched out his hand and pulled his leg over.

Although there are two cells, the cells are only a few square meters. A person is in there and can barely turn over.

He held back his chin and yelled, bumping against the railing again and again.

While knocking him back, he said: "Take it out. If you don't take it out, I will kill you. Anyway, I am a murderer, so what do I have to worry about if I save your life?"

"What are you doing? Let him go."

The replacement yamen officer came in and yelled. After the roar passed, three or five cell guards ran in from nowhere, opened the door and pulled the two of them apart.

Amidst the sound of the iron chains, the man who lost the steamed buns was still shouting and refused to give in easily.
