Li Huan shouted outside: "Miss, Doctor Li's wife Ma Lan has an urgent matter to see. ”

Ma Lan's original name was Liu Lan, a few years ago because she was kidnapped by the Tanzhou gangsters, the Liu family not only did not report to the official, but also feared that she would affect the reputation of the Liu family, and announced that she was dead and held a funeral.

Thanks to Li Jingjing's rescue, Ma Lan and Ma Song were saved, and they were helped to break away from the Liu family and change their mother's surname.

Li Jingjing opened the door of the medicine room and saw Ma Lan, who had not seen her anxious face for several days, standing next to Li Huan, and was surprised that Ma Lan was actually wearing wide men's clothes.

"Princess, please help me." Ma Lan was beautiful, pale, wearing a blue robe, and hurriedly came out without a cloak, standing in the cold wind and feeling sorry.

Li Jingjing took Ma Lan's hand and went to the unoccupied infirmary next door, and said, "You are pregnant now, it is too cold outside, go into the house to talk." ”

The two daughters used to be in the Tanzhou Women's School in Tanzhou, and they knew each other very well.

Li Jingjing knew that Ma Lan would not come to the door if there was no urgent matter, and said, "It's urgent, you can tell me about it." ”

Ma Lan knelt down and kowtowed three times, and said, "Princess, my younger brother Ma Song had a party with the alumni of Chang'an Academy last time, and he didn't come back in the evening. The night before, I asked my husband to look for him, and his schoolmate said that he had already gone home. ”

Li Jingjing helped Ma Lan up and asked her to sit down and talk.

Ma Lan refused, took out a letter from his bosom, presented it with both hands, because the content of the letter was so despicable and shameless, his voice trembled with anger: "Last morning, my husband was still looking for my brother, and I was waiting at home, and Mennu received this letter named to me. ”

Li Jingjing asked, "Who sent the letter?" ”

Ma Lan said: "The doorman said that the messenger was a child who had never seen him before, and he ran away after delivering the letter. ”

Li Jingjing opened the letter, and the handwriting inside was crooked, which should have been written with the left hand of the writer for fear of being recognized.

The content of the letter was to threaten Ma Song's life to wait for a nobleman, and asked Ma Lan to go to the Yueshang Garden in the far suburbs of Chang'an at noon today, and someone would take her to see the nobleman, if she didn't go or report to the official, she would wait to collect Ma Song's body.

Li Jingjing has been to the Moon Tip Garden, it is a very beautiful garden, and people who can go to the Moon Tip Garden are either rich or expensive.

Last year, Miss Civilian-Faction set up a pen club there and invited Miss Military Attache to participate.

There are several attics in the garden. The letter did not say which attic, which shows that the letter writer is very cunning, afraid that Ma Lan will catch the nobleman.

Li Jingjing said: "If I send my own soldiers to surround the garden, I will startle the snakes." What method is used to catch the noble person mentioned in the letter? ”

Ma Lan hurriedly said: "Princess, I thought about it with my husband all night and decided to report it to you early this morning." I asked my husband to stay at home and dress up as me, and I wore his robe and made several turns in Chang'an City to meet you, so as to paralyze the people sent by the letter writer to keep an eye on my family. ”

Li Jingjing asked: "Do you want to go directly to the Moon Tip Garden from me, and then let my people catch that nobleman?" ”

Ma Lan nodded and said, "Only by catching that noble person can we find the person who wrote the letter and rescue my only brother." ”

"This matter is related to your brother's life, and I am afraid that if there is a mistake, you will regret it for life. My grandfather happened to be in the house, so let's go and ask him for an idea. Li Jingjing picked up Ma Lan, who was full of gratitude, and went to the Moon Meditation Courtyard.

Li Bing was playing chess with He Jingyan when he heard this and said, "The moon is the property of the Yun clan. This matter may involve the children of the Yun clan, Jing Yan, you take my concave gold mace and go on a trip. ”

When Ma Lan heard that the top of the moon was actually opened by the Yun Clan, a big family for hundreds of years, his face suddenly changed greatly.

Li Jingjing asked worriedly, "Are you feeling unwell?" ”

Ma Lan knelt down and cried: "I didn't know that the moon was opened by the Yun Clan, this time for my younger brother, let your mansion and the Yun Clan fight each other." ”

"If it is really the Yun Clan who does such an illegal thing, Your Majesty and I will not spare them." Li Bing asked Li Jingjing to help Ma Lan up, and waved He Jingyan to arrange it.

Ma Lan followed Li Jingjing to change back into a women's dress, and then listened to He Jingyan's arrangement and went to the moon in an inconspicuous soft sedan chair.

Li Jingjing had something in her heart and couldn't make medicine, so she went to talk to Li Bing and waited for news.

Li Bing asked, "You have a pro-soldier team, why is it useless today?" ”

Li Jingjing said: "If it is somewhere else, I will directly ask Li Bei to bring my personal army to arrest people." But the people who go to the top of the moon are either rich or expensive, and I still have to deal with you. ”

Li Bing nodded and said: "Although you have been named the princess of the country by Your Majesty, you have not yet married, and this kind of matter is sensitive to the reputation of women, and if you don't get it right, some people will take advantage of the loopholes to find out and slander your reputation." You're just looking for grandpa. ”

A woman follows her father when she is not married, and follows her husband after marriage. Li Jingjing has always abided by the survival rules of women in this world.

He Jingyan's soldiers were divided into two ways.

He himself personally led all the way to the Moon Tip Garden, waited for Ma Lan to be brought in by a slave who was guarding the gate of the Moon Top, caught the slave and maid, and then broke into the attic to catch the nobleman who wanted to commit violence against Ma Lan.

This nobleman, who was a blonde-haired and gray-eyed envoy from Persia, was about to do that kind of thing to Malan, when he was disturbed by the fierce soldiers kicking the door, and he was so angry that he lifted his pants and muttered and cursed in Persian.

The soldiers of the Tiger Ben Army could not understand what the envoy said, so they tied up the envoy according to He Jingyan's order.

Malan had never seen the messenger of Persia at all, and the envoy seemed to know the whereabouts of Masson, and she was so anxious that she almost fainted from tears.

He Jingyan called the steward of the moon and checked the reservation records, and this attic was actually wrapped by Shang Jungong, the father of Shang Shengshan, the secretary of the Ministry of War, since last autumn.

Then it is said that the envoy of the Persian state came here and was invited by the Shang family.

He Jingyan asked coldly: "This time it is the envoy of the Persian State, who has lived here before, and who have you met?" ”

The steward of the moon is the son of the Yun clan, and his ancestors are all slaves of the Yun clan, and he became the steward of the scenery.

The steward saw He Jingyan holding a concave gold mace, not to mention him, even if the young master of the Yun clan came to answer the question and concealed it, he would also be beaten to death by Xin Jinyan.

He hurriedly called the six slaves and slaves who were guarding the attic, and asked them to report the truth.

"Every few days, a noble man comes to the attic and does that ugly thing with a beautiful young woman."

"Beautiful young women look at them as women from good families, not prostitutes from Qinglou. Seven young women came often, and the rest came little. This is the first time this young woman has come, and her face is very unfamiliar. ”

He Jingyan interrogated the slave who answered Ma Lan at the gate, this woman was mute and could not write, but the steward pointed out that her identity was the third-class slave maid of the wife of the princess of Shangjun.

With the confessions of the steward and the attic slaves and slaves, He Jingyan had already determined that this matter had nothing to do with the Yun clan, but the Shang family was inevitably involved this time.

He took the Persian envoys, mute slaves, and a group of witnesses out of the moon and sent them directly to the Dali Temple of the Criminal Department.

The case involved foreign envoys and the Shangjun Mansion, and Dali Temple immediately reported it to the imperial court.

The imperial court sent an interpreter to speak to the Persian envoys.

The Persian envoy exclaimed angrily: "The five horses said that there is a lovely little beauty who admires my noble blood in a foreign country, and wants to have a private meeting with me before I leave the Dingchao, and wants to give me a child. I am a merry man, and I feel that I should meet the wishes of the beauties of the Dingchao Dynasty, so I went to the top of the moon according to what the five horses said. ”

He saw Ma Lan just now, she was a very temperamental and shy little beauty, thinking of Ma Lan's love for him, he was extremely happy, but he hated He Jingyan for disturbing this affair with the army of the Ding Dynasty, and tied him up.

He didn't do anything bad, why tie him up. This was an insult to the Persian state.

As soon as the officials of Dali Temple heard that this also involved Hu Yunfeng, a five-horse from the Hu clan, they looked at He Jingyan, who was listening to the trial.

He Jingyan shouted: "The concave gold mace is here, quickly go to mention Hu Yunfeng to ask about the case, if you dare to disobey, you will be punished for violating the will!" ”

The officers and soldiers of Dali Temple and the Hu Ben army went to the Hu tribe and learned that Hu Yunfeng was in the Five Princesses' Mansion, so they went to the Five Princesses' Mansion.

Hu Yunfeng was inviting a group of guests to listen to the play in the mansion with He Jinglian, and when he heard that the Persian envoy had confessed to him in Dali Temple, his face changed greatly, and he asked He Jinglian to accompany him to Dali Temple.

"In a place like Dali Temple, how can this princess go?" He Jinglian didn't go to accompany the guests, and sent two palace maids to follow.

Hu Yunfeng thought of countermeasures on the way, and when he saw the Persian envoy in Dali Temple, he insisted that he didn't know that he had been wronged.

When the Persian envoy heard the translator's words, he was so angry that he scolded Hu Yunfeng for designing him, and said that it was forbidden for Persian merchants to trade with the shops of the Hu people.

Hu Yunfeng was ordered by the Hu clan to negotiate business with the Persian envoy as a concubine, in order to please the envoy and do what he liked, he ingeniously deceived the envoy to date the beautiful young woman, thinking that the envoy would be grateful for the business after he succeeded.

Hu Yunfeng didn't know that the beautiful young woman who was arranged was the wife of Dr. Li of Li Jingjing Pharmacy.

Now Hu Yunfeng has given up the interests of the family business in order to protect himself, even if he is not guilty, he has lost the trust of the family.

The officials of Dali Temple have tried countless cases and have a lot of experience, so they can see that the Persian envoy is telling the truth and Hu Yunfeng is telling a lie, and asks: "Messenger, do you have any witnesses?" ”

The Persian envoy thought for a moment, shook his head helplessly, and said, "No." ”

In accordance with the laws of the Dingchao, the officials of Dali Temple released Hu Yunfeng, so that he was not allowed to leave Chang'an before the final case, and sent the Persian envoy back to the embassy to be grounded.

The other group of people was taken by Lu Daoming to the home of Li Yunfei and Ma Lan, arrested the two young men sent by the letter writer to keep an eye on them, and used means to interrogate and learn about their master and the place where Ma Song was imprisoned - an ordinary old house in the outskirts of Chang'an.

Lu Daoming immediately led his troops to the palatial old mansion that looked ordinary on the surface, broke in, and arrested all the people inside.

The soldiers rescued Ma Song, who was tied up and locked in a firewood hut, and also searched for more than 20 old and new account books in the dense compartment of the house.

It turned out that the old mansion was specially used to keep hostages and force the hostages' families and relatives to submit.

The hostage's family members and relatives are all beautiful young women and girls with no background like Ma Lan.

The owner of the old mansion asked these women to secretly wait for the dignitaries, as long as they obeyed once, they would not be able to escape in the future, and they would be forced to do such ugly things until they were old and decrepit.

The old and new ledgers record the names of the women who have been threatened by the owners of the old mansion for more than 30 years, and the names of the dignitaries and nobles who have waited.

The master of the old mansion used to be the clansmen of the Liu, Wang, Ouyang, and Hu clans in Chang'an, and then the royal family was the first to withdraw, and the people of the Hu and Liu clans also felt that it was inappropriate to quit, and only the Ouyang family remained.

When Shang Jungong's stepfamily did not marry to Shangfu, he was persecuted by the Ouyang family, and later became the duchess of the county, and the Ouyang family was afraid of her revenge, so they sent her many treasures to settle the matter.

Last year, the Ouyang family fell and moved to the Northland, in order to avoid the murder of the enemy in the Northland, they wanted to get the protection of Shangfu and survive, and gave this place and many treasures as gifts to the stepfamily of Shangjun Gong.

If this kind of thing is changed to another woman, she will definitely not agree, and she will take this opportunity to beat the water dog and expose the scandal of the Ouyang family.

However, Shang Jungong's stepfamily was extremely greedy, and he actually accepted the old mansion, slaves, slaves and maids, and the network of connections with hundreds of miles of underworlds, and did even more.

She rented an attic on the top of the moon in the name of Shang Jungong, and then sent the servants of the old mansion to continue to search for beautiful young women and young girls.

The number of women registered in the previous register was 23, and since last autumn the number has increased to 37.

She used these poor beautiful women to satisfy the psychology of the dignitaries and nobles to hunt for curiosity and cheating, and got various benefits from the dignitaries.

Hu Yunfeng, the fifth horse, was a guest here five years ago, and he has become addicted, and he has to patronize every new woman who comes.

This time it was Hu Yunfeng who came to meet Ma Lan, and he gave this opportunity to the Persian envoy.

If Ma Lan hadn't exposed the matter to Li Jingjing, and Li Bing sent He Jingyan to investigate it quickly, there would have been many poor women who would have fallen into the clutches of Shang Jungong's stepfamily.

An hour later, Ma Lan finally met Ma Song, who had been frightened and hungry for two days, in the Li Mansion.

"Brother, how did you get caught by them?"

"I had dinner at Xueyou's house, and on the way home, I was knocked unconscious by someone covering my mouth, and I woke up in the firewood room."

After this catastrophe, the sister and brother hugged each other and wept bitterly.

When Qu and He learned about this, they all deeply sympathized with Ma Lan, "God is pitiful, Lan Niang was peeped at by the wicked because of her beauty when she arrived in Chang'an. ”

"It's okay now, Songlang was rescued by Jingyan's people, and he is safe and sound."

Li Jingjing sent someone to send Ma Lan and Ma Song home in a carriage, and asked someone to bring a message to Li Yunfei, asking him to take a three-day vacation and comfort Ma Lan's sisters and brothers at home.

Li Bing sent someone to call Shang Jungong to the mansion, asked He Jingyan to tell what had happened, and asked Shang Jungong to look at the account books that recorded the names, times, places, and prostitutes in detail.

Shang Jungong didn't know that the very favored stepfamily had secretly served many dignitaries, and he didn't know that she had done the evil thing of forcing her to become a prostitute for half a year.

He almost fell out with his deceased son for such a woman. Now the son was forced by this woman to move out of the county mansion, and only came to see him during the New Year's holidays.

"Lao Shang, you drove Shengshan and his brother out of the house for this woman." Li Bing looked at Shang Jungong, who was so angry that he couldn't speak, and pondered his words and said: "Alas, I will give you a breath in advance, even if you kill that woman, you will not be able to help your mansion clear your name!" ”

Shang Jungong was full of remorse, vomited two mouthfuls of blood, and fainted.

Li Bing hurriedly called Doctor Liu and Li Jingjing to wake up Shang Jungong, and sent someone to call Shang Shengshan over.

When Shang Shengshan learned what happened, he was so sad and angry that he cried on the spot, and he always regarded Li Bing as an elder and told the ugly things in the family.

"When that woman just married my father, she was going to swallow the dowry that my mother left us. My wife found out about this, and my brother and I asked my father for my mother's dowry. The woman spoke ill of our brother in front of my father, and she also falsely accused us of harming her by pretending to have a miscarriage. ”

Li Bing patted Shang Shengshan on the shoulder and said, "I learned about these things in the Northland, and I specially wrote a letter to your father, so that he must not have the idea of making that woman's son the son of the world." I also wrote a letter to Your Majesty, and the son of the Shang family can only be you. ”

Shang Shengshan didn't know that there was such a thing, so he was very grateful to Li Bing and knelt down and kowtowed.

Li Bing picked up Shang Shengshan with both hands and said, "You take your father back to your house first." I have asked Your Majesty to seal the county mansion, and that woman and her comrades will not end well. The county government will be demoted to a county government, and a thousand acres of fiefdom will be confiscated, and 5,000 taels of silver will be compensated for each victim. ”

In this matter, Li Bing dealt with it in accordance with the law of the Dingchao Dynasty and did not open up to the Shangjun public network.

Shang Shengshan was grateful to Li Bing for not publicizing the scandal and accepting the court's disposal of the Shang family, so he left the Li Mansion and returned to the Shang Mansion with the old man Shang who woke up with a somewhat dull gaze.

That night, He Dong sent a eunuch to the Shang County Mansion, gave the Shang County Princess's office to commit suicide, killed all the cronies around her, took off the county gate plaque, and replaced it with the county gate plaque.

This matter did not end here, Dali Temple according to the records in the account book, all the dignitaries involved in the living were sent to review, recorded confessions, and each person was fined 3,000 taels of silver and handed over to the imperial court.

The six clansmen of the Wang, Liu, and Hu clans, who used to be the owners of the old house, are now nearly seventy years old, and they were directly imprisoned by He Dong's order.

He Dong ordered the entire Ouyang family to be relegated to a farther and more remote place in the Northland, and the local horse bandits could destroy them without their enemies taking action.

The name of the Persian envoy is not recorded in the account book, but Hu Yunfeng is recorded. Dali Temple immediately lifted the ban of the Persian envoys.

The Persian envoy specially went to see He Dong, asked what happened, deeply felt deceived by Hu Yunfeng, and apologized to the victim Ma Lan.

On the same day, the Persian envoy ordered Persian merchants in the eastern and western markets of Chang'an to prohibit business with the Hu people.

For those murdered women, in order to protect them from being scolded to death by the spitting of the world, the court secretly sent compensation to them, so that they could completely forget about the matter.

Since then, they no longer have to be afraid to do those ugly things, and they are extremely grateful to the Li family and He Jingyan for standing up for them, and quietly set up an immortal tablet for the Li family and He Jingyan.

Qu Kuaishou's daughter-in-law Ding deliberately asked the two slaves to chat and spread the matter to the ears of her mother-in-law Deng.

"To marry a wife, you must marry a virtuous one. Shang Jungong's stepfamily was insatiable and ruined the entire Shang family. ”

"What county duke, now they have all been reduced to county dukes. I heard that the Shang family sold a lot of treasures to compensate the women who were victimized. ”

After hearing this, Deng completely broke off helping Xiao Deng return to Qu's house.

At the beginning of February, an incident occurred in the royal family, which even caused turmoil in the court.
