Chapter 31: What’s wrong with your finger?

Offending Qin officials is indeed a violation of Qin law.
But in such romantic places as towers, if we really investigate carefully, the person who deserves the most imprisonment is Ying Chengjiao.
After all, these guests were at most an offense, but Ying Chengjiao was a collision.
In a place like Loutai, if the manager wants to stay clean and untainted, be a white lotus that is pure and not coquettish, and be serious and earnest like the heads of other institutions in Qin State, then Loutai should forget about doing good business.
Everyone comes here to relax, have fun and have fun.
If the buildings were also serious and rigid, then what’s the point of playing?
So even though the guests usually spoke flirtatious to the housekeeper, she didn't mind. Instead, she deliberately chatted with them about some romantic topics - after all, it was about making money, and it wasn't shameful.
No one expected that Ying Chengjiao would take advantage of this incident to cause trouble and arrest all 44 guests in the building.
The arrest incident on the building would inevitably have a huge impact on the building, and the female manager did not want to see this scene.
But if this is not used as an excuse, Ying Chengjiao would be torn into pieces by five oxen for arresting so many people.
The housekeeper could only remain silent.
As a result, a scene appeared that had never appeared since the building was founded.
One by one, the nobles, dressed in fine clothes, with their hands behind their backs, were escorted out of the door by the guards.
Many common people passing by the entrance of the tower deliberately slowed down their pace, and glanced unintentionally at these nobles who were able to enter the place of their dreams.
All of these nobles lowered their heads, and their greatest hope at this moment was that there would be fewer people from the outer sect.
They thought they were all prominent figures in the Qin State, but today they were tied up and sent to the Supreme Court, which was a huge disgrace to them.
"Ying Chengjiao! Be fined three years' salary! I wonder how long you can keep being so arrogant!"
Sometimes some guests would get so angry that they would clamor to teach Ying Chengjiao a lesson.
"Butler, I will go to Mount Li to watch you serve your sentence!"
Some other guests threatened the female steward of the building.
But no matter what they say, no matter what they clamor about in the future, that is all in the future.
Today, they could only be pushed and shoved by the guards and left the balcony in a panic.
The fact that Ying Chengjiao caused a big disturbance in the building, which resulted in forty-four guests being imprisoned in the court, soon became known to everyone in Xianyang City.
As the forty-four guests cried and complained, Ying Chengjiao's image of being arrogant, domineering, and unreasonable became more and more deeply rooted in people's minds.
Ten years have passed in Xianyang and something new has happened.
After the shame at Tunliu, Ying Chengjiao once again became notorious throughout the city and became the topic of conversation among the people of Xianyang.
"Sir, their crimes are of minor nature and the sentence is no more than three days in prison. They can be exempted from labor service by paying two gold and three hundred coins. Why bother to fight with them?" The female steward sighed.
There is a system of redemption in Qin law, which means that a prison sentence can be redeemed with money, but the amount is difficult for ordinary people to afford.
But considering the family background of the guests in the building, the ransom is obviously not a problem.
"For fun! Aren't you happy?" Ying Chengjiao smiled happily.
Cool?
Maybe.
The housekeeper looked at Ying Chengjiao's bright smile, and hesitated to speak, feeling distressed.
The pavilion is a place for entertainment, and everyone who comes here is here to have fun. No one wants to be cautious here and think twice before speaking.
The arrest of these guests today means that the building is no longer a place where people can completely relax, which is bound to greatly reduce the flow of visitors to the building.
Without visitors, there is no money, and the manager cannot pass the assessment, which means he will be sentenced to prison.
"What's with that expression on your face? Are you willing to have an open meeting with them outside the gate?"
The housekeeper was shocked.
Just thinking about that scene, I felt creepy inside and shook my head quickly.
"That's it. Since the conflict between you and them is irreconcilable, why not just throw them into the Tingwei Prison and have some fun first!"
"Drink today and worry about tomorrow. You are so disobedient! I have decided to punish you severely! Go!"
"Sir! It's not night yet!"
The female manager screamed and was picked up by Ying Chengjiao.
"No problem, no problem!" Ying Chengjiao said excitedly.
The housekeeper closed her eyes as if she had accepted her fate, her body softened, and she leaned into Ying Chengjiao's arms without saying a word.
"You two, come here together!" Ying Chengjiao said to the two beauties behind him.
"only."
"only."
The two beauties responded.
One of the green-clad beauties who had served Ying Chengjiao hesitated for a moment and said in a delicate voice, "Sir, can you have mercy on us and call us some more sisters?"
The beauty next to her who had never served Ying Chengjiao opened her mouth and looked at the beauty in green with surprise.
Three people aren't enough?
The beauty in green nodded with lingering fear.
To serve Lord Chang'an, three people are indeed far from enough.
"Hahaha, have mercy, have mercy! I'll just order a few more beauties! Gai Nie, get out of the way! You're blocking my view of the beauties!"
"Sir, this trip was ordered by His Majesty." Gai Nie had a blank expression on his face.
Brother Emperor’s instruction?
If it is not necessary, my royal brother would not look for me.
Ying Chengjiao looked at the steward in his arms reluctantly, and the two beauties behind him, and said to Gai Nie fiercely: "Why didn't you say so earlier!"
"The young master did not ask."
The arrow is on the string, but it can't be shot. Damn it, Gai Nie.
Ying Chengjiao held the charming butler in his arms, looked at Gai Nie, who had a blank expression and spoke in a lukewarm manner, and gritted his teeth, saying, "Let's talk upstairs!"
The two went upstairs and found a room.
Gai Nie did not mention a word about his concurrent role as the executor of the seal and order, Zhao Gao being caned, or the secret guards needing a new deputy commander.
It only tells the story of the fierce conflict between Ying Fusu and Ying Zheng, and the stalemate between father and son.
Gai Nie knew very well what to say and what not to say.
"Let's go! To the palace!" After hearing this, Ying Chengjiao acted without hesitation.
It's poisonous! Is the eldest nephew the reincarnation of Confucius? Chunyu Yue acted like this, why did his faith double?
On the way to Xianyang Palace, Ying Chengjiao noticed that there was redness and swelling between Gai Nie's left index and middle fingers, and he was very surprised.
Gai Nie's swordsmanship is extremely high, and there are only a few people in the world who can fight against him. How did he get injured?
Even if there was a strong enemy with superb martial arts skills who could hurt Gai Nie, Gai Nie should not be injured like this.
Only the index and middle fingers were red and swollen. How did this injury happen? This is more difficult than breaking Gai Nie's two fingers!
"What happened to your finger?"
"... a telepathic finger."
"Puff! You really used two fingers to clamp the sword! Hahaha! Is it hot?! Unfortunately, the sword is still not fast enough. You didn't even break the skin. The friction is not enough! You are just pretending to be cool! Hahaha!"
Ying Chengjiao once told Gai Nie that there was a peerless master in the world named Lu Xiaofeng, who traveled all over the world with his unique skill, Lingxi Finger. There was no weapon in the world that he could not hold or clamp tightly with Lingxi Finger.
No matter how hard the enemy attacked, whether with swords, knives, sticks, or spears, Lu Xiaofeng always remained calm and composed, holding the enemy's weapon with two fingers, truly the most romantic man in the world.
Ying Chengjiao didn't expect that Gai Nie, who acted calm and composed when he was telling the story, would actually try the Lingxi Finger technique.
"Gai Nie, you are so stuffy!"
Gai Nie's mouth twitched slightly, and he touched the sword at his waist and said softly: "From what you said, could it be that this telepathic finger does not exist in the world?"
"Hahaha, of course! Lingxi Yizhi only exists in Gu Long's novels. There is no such martial art in reality. To hold all kinds of weapons in the world with two fingers, first of all, the two fingers must be trained to be as hard as iron. Secondly, you must be extremely brave and strong. You can use two fingers to hold the enemy's sword and knife with all your internal strength. If such a person really exists in the world, wouldn't he be a god?"
Ying Chengjiao was showing off when he suddenly felt a chill on his body. He immediately said, "In my heart, Gai Nie, you are the Sword God!"
"It turns out that the Lu Xiaofeng and Lingxi Yizhi that you mentioned are just living in the works of novelists. Speaking of which, Nie hasn't practiced with you for a long time. Look at the sword, young master!"
The three-foot-long autumn water is as cold as ice, and the sword shines coldly on the nine continents!
"Gai Nie! Are you serious?"
On that day, a rumor quietly spread in Xianyang city.
In broad daylight, the world is clear and bright.
There were two ghosts running fast in broad daylight. Countless people claimed to have seen them with their own eyes and reported to the authorities out of fear.
The case was reported up the chain of command, from the Imperial Household Department, the Supreme Court, and the Prime Minister's Office, all the way to the bamboo slips before the emperor.
This forced the First Emperor to personally announce that the ghosts had been eliminated and the people of Xianyang had nothing to worry about.
The matter was finally settled.
Afterwards, the two ghosts were scolded by the First Emperor for half an hour.
Tingweifu, Tingwei Prison.
The jailers numbly accepted the prisoners and put them into cells one by one, even though there should have been six people in one cell.
But there is no way around it. These prisoners have deep backgrounds and their crimes are not serious, so they need preferential treatment.
The result of this is.
The jailers watched as the Tingwei Prison, which had just been emptied, was about to be full again.
The officials of the Supreme Court were troubled and gathered together to discuss countermeasures.
"what to do?"
"The prisoner is special, report him to the Supreme Court as soon as possible."
"The Lord Tingwei just left in anger because there were too many prisoners. If I report this to him, will he be angry with us?"
"This time the criminal is found guilty. We can enforce the law impartially. There is no need to report to the Lord Justice, right?"
"It's better to be pissed off by the Lord Tingwei than to be hated by so many powerful people."
"Then report it?"
"Report it!"
"Report it!"
Outside Zhangtai Palace.
Li Si's heart trembled, and he felt inexplicably anxious.
Your Majesty has been talking with the eldest prince for two hours. When will you summon me to the palace?
