Chapter 681: White Tiger Seal Birthmark
Liang Xinming had some doubts in his heart.
She looked at Wang Heng, it couldn't be this peach blossom who provoked her, right? This county lord saw that he was very valued by Wang Heng, so he wanted to take a shortcut.
Wang Heng was looked down upon by her, because the county lord of Youyou was indeed obsessed with him, although he didn't respond, but she actually found Liang Xinming here, how could he not panic......? Oh, this is absolutely not good! He didn't believe that the county lord had news about Lin Zicheng. There really is, I'm afraid that I have to come to tell him that it is not Liang Xinming's turn.
He wrinkled his eyebrows and said, "Don't go! what can she do?"
Liang Xinming looked at him and said: "The person is the county lord, and it is too rude not to send the letter." Moreover, if what she said was true, but the official ignored it and turned around and mistook a major event, wouldn't it be the official's fault? β
Wang Heng saw that he couldn't stop her, so he wanted to go with her, but he was afraid that if he went, the county lord of Youyou would make any unexpected moves, and it would be inconvenient at that time; if he didn't go, he was afraid that the county lord of Youyou would talk nonsense in front of her, and he was very entangled.
Liang Xinming saw him like this, and he wanted to go. She didn't suspect that Wang Heng and the county lord had any privacy, but since the other party had made an appointment by letter, if she didn't find out her intentions, she would be passive after all. So he comforted him and said, "Don't worry, I have my own arrangements." β
She instructed Liu Nian: "You go to the restaurant for the official to make an appointment, just say that anti-thieves are rampant and must not be guarded against, please move to the water side, and the official is waiting for her there." β
Liu Nian said: "Yes, my lord." β
Wang Heng said: "Let's go for the teacher." Since you can't stop it, you can follow it, and you can rest assured that you can act when you see the opportunity.
Liang Xinming asked, "The teacher wants to see the county lord?"
Wang Heng shook his head violently, "How could I want to see her!"
Liang Xinming said: "In this case, the teacher does not have to go, and the student goes alone." Besides, let's all go, what about the triage of the three divisions in the afternoon?"
Wang Heng: "......"
Liang Xinming changed into a regular suit and pretended to be a handsome scholar, and Zhao Ziyi also pretended to be a regular attendant, and the two went out from the back office.
To Dezheng Road, Liang Xinming slowed down and looked at both sides of the market, a prosperous atmosphere, and the mood was also very good, his eyes slipped forward from the side, along the street restaurants, tea houses, jewelry shops, pen and ink shop, delicious food, silk village, money village...... In the past, it was on the water side. Guests came in and out of the shop, among them there were many women from official families who rode in horse-drawn carriages and wore brocade clothes, and entered the lobby surrounded by maids and servants under the cover of cloaks or large hats.
Liang Xinming smiled happily.
On the water side, we insist on facing the people in the market, and do not provide door-to-door service, and it is not feasible for the ladies of the powerful families to want to deliver goods to their homes for them to choose, so they have to go to the shop to choose in person, and there is a private room on the water side, which is also very convenient.
Market life is the epitome of people living and working in peace and contentment.
In Dezheng Road, even the female relatives of small families with ordinary family backgrounds can grit their teeth, come to buy a suit on the water side, dress themselves up like a girl and grandmother from a rich family, and go out to visit relatives and friends with dignity, just like they can eat delicious mutton and exquisite snacks for a small amount of money, and they don't need to be like the Zhumen mansion equipped with special cooks and special needlework girls.
In a peaceful and prosperous world, there is nothing more than this.
Being in such an atmosphere is reassuring.
In the east study of the inner courtyard of the water side.
When Liang Xinming saw the county lord at first glance, she felt inexplicably familiar, and her flickering eyes and small nose reminded her of a person - Lin Qianzi!
Liang Xinming was very puzzled, while greeting her to drink tea, he secretly looked at her, and it didn't look like it carefully, this one was more noble and dignified.
After drinking a cup of tea, she asked, "What did the county lord say to this official?"
Lord Youyou's eyes drifted a little, "I heard that Lord Liang has no regrets about his wife?"
Liang Xinming asked calmly: "Is this matter very important to the county lord?"
The lord of Youyou seemed to have just realized what he was saying, and he blushed lightly, bowed his head in embarrassment, and didn't know how to turn around.
Liang Xinming waited for a while, and when he saw that she still didn't speak, he said: "There are still a bunch of people waiting in the official's yamen to come to the court, if the county lord is fine, the official will leave." β
The county lord hurriedly said, "Something, something!"
Liang Xinming was silent, only looked at her with a smile, waiting for her to say something.
The county lord pouted and muttered, "So busy!" Liang Xinming was afraid that he would be surprised, and glanced at her quickly, and saw that she was still smiling, so he breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Lord Liang is really a humble gentleman, and he is like a jade." β
Liang Xinming said: "The county lord praised it falsely. - What is the matter with Lin Shizi?" lest she forget the past, help her get up and remind her.
Only then did the county lord make up his mind and said: "This county lord once gossiped with his cousin, Lin Shizi, because when it came to their white tiger, I said: 'I also have a tiger head coat of arms on my shoulder. It's a birthmark. My cousin didn't believe it. So I asked someone to bring him a pen and paper to draw for him. Suppose my lord, what did he see?"
Liang Xinming's heart moved, and he hurriedly asked, "How?"
"He was so surprised that he said, 'Impossible!' with a look on his face like he had seen a ghost. β
Liang Xinming said solemnly: "Can you ask the county lord to be more careful and specific?"
Seeing that her interest was aroused, Lord Youyou nodded vigorously, as if he was very scared, he swallowed his saliva involuntarily, and said, "I look at his appearance, as if I am frightened, and I don't believe that I will have this mark on my body." Isn't it weird?"
Liang Xinming was very sure: "It's weird!"
Lord Yoyo was excited, and said, "My lord also thinks it's strange, so do you know what's going on? My father and mother didn't say anything. β
Liang Xinming looked at her fixedly and was silent.
Lord Yoyo was puzzled: "What's wrong?"
Liang Xinming said: "If the county lord wants the official to judge the case, he must tell the truth, say half hide and half hide, how can the official judge?"
Lord Yoyo's face turned white, and he looked at her a little bewildered.
Liang Xinming pressed the strange look in his heart and said with a smile: "The official wants to ask: Regarding this birthmark, the prince and the princess really didn't say anything? Then Lin Zicheng said it was impossible, and then what about him? He didn't ask the prince and the princess?"
Lord Youyou quietly breathed a sigh of relief and said, "He can't ask." At that time, he was called into the palace by the emperor, and he ran away from the palace that night and never came back. "At the end of the day, it seemed frustrating.
Liang Xinming said: "It turned out to be that day. β
The lord of Youyou County responded and said, "Yes." β
Liang Xinming asked again: "Regarding this mark, the prince and the princess really didn't say anything, why didn't the county lord ask them?"
Lord Yoyo glanced at her with disgust, and said, "It's just a birthmark, who said this, if it weren't for my cousin that dayβ" She paused before moving onβ"If he hadn't told him about the White Tiger Seal, I wouldn't have told him this." Is this something that can be said casually!"
Liang Xinming hurriedly lowered his eyes and said, "It's the official Meng Lang." β
Then he asked, "Why did Lin Shizi talk about the White Tiger Seal?"
