Nie Qi rode proudly on his back and rushed to the deserted temple. Pen Fun Pavilion www.biquge.info suddenly someone shouted on the other end of the road. He glanced at it in a hurry, and saw a man dressed as a merchant running over in a panic, shouting as he ran: "Help! ”

Nie Qi leaned back on his horse, stopped horizontally, and raised his chin: "What's the matter?" ”

Seeing that he was young and not an official, the merchant didn't say anything, and planned to continue running around him.

"Stop, stop for me!" Nie Qiyang took out a sign in a fake way, anyway, the handwriting was not clear, and he shook it twice: "The official of the Beijing government is here, who dares to act rashly." ”

When the merchants heard this, they were greatly relieved. There were about a dozen people in pursuit, and some of them were armed with weapons such as poles.

Nie Qi rode a high-headed horse on his back, dressed well, and had a serious and righteous face, which also frightened many people for a while.

"Are you an official? That's good, this guy stole our Zhu family statue with bad intentions, so he quickly locked it up and went to see the official. ”

"Wronged! Brother Guancha, no, Master Guancha, Xiaomin is wronged! The merchant pulled Nie Qiyang and shouted grievances with a bitter face.

Nie Qiyang shook him off and asked, "What's the matter?" ”

"This, this ......" the merchant muttered and stopped.

The person chasing the escape sneered: "People have stolen goods, what else is there to say." ”

"I, I didn't steal your idol, I gave it back, I was deceived." The merchant raised his sleeve to wipe his tears.

"Say them one by one." Nie Qiyang felt that there was still something greasy here.

The merchant sobbed and whispered: "Master Guancha, can you let Xiaomin tell you alone." ”

"Can't!" The other party shouted: "The court still has to be in front of everyone, why do you say it alone?" What do you want to do? ”

Nie Qi looked around and asked, "How far is this from the Deserted Temple?" Is it the deserted temple with a ginkgo tree? ”

"Lord Huiguancha, just turn the corner in front and arrive."

"Okay, you all come with me."

Under the ginkgo biloba in the deserted temple, Ji Qianxia whispered and laughed with Gu Lingxian about the recent events in the house, and the trick of the Hua family mother and daughter was a farce in her opinion. However, Gu Lingxian listened to it with relish.

"Why are they?"

"Don't you understand? For Aunt Bai! ”

"But even if Aunt Bai doesn't care about housework, it's not her turn?" Gu Lingxian understood. It was the Bai family who replaced the other concubine of Grandpa Guo, Chen.

Qian Xia sneered: "Let's fight Aunt Bai first, if it goes well, then Mrs. Di will be next." ”

"Mrs. Di? She's too delusional, isn't she? ”

"It turns out that it's just a delusion, doesn't this start to spread rumors in the early stage? Splash dirty water first. ”

Gu Lingxian remembered the rumors about Qu Mo that had been circulating in the capital not long ago, and suddenly said, "Oh. However, isn't the rumor broken? ”

"There are new rumors again. It's just that he didn't have time to spread it in the capital, so he let the house go to the town. ”

Gu Lingxian opened her mouth wide: "Oh my God! That's too much work, isn't it? ”

"For the sake of that position, some people are just going to do whatever it takes."

"No wonder my mother doesn't allow my father to take a concubine, this woman has a lot to eat."

Asa Xia agreed: "No, there are a lot of broken things to eat." Otherwise, you see that there are a few back houses in the capital that are peaceful. ”

After thinking about it for a long time, Gu Lingxian shook her head: "There are really few concubines in the back house that are peaceful." Thinking about it, it seems that the Zunfu is okay. I didn't expect there to be a lot of trouble. ”

"Not really. Jifu is not bad, then the other families, tsk. ”

Gu Lingxian glanced at Luo Rin next to her and lowered her voice: "Taiwei's Mansion is not a fuel-efficient lamp. ”

"I know. So, I'm annoyed. "Asa Xia didn't hide it from her.

Gu Lingxian patted her on the shoulder: "Sympathy!" ”

"Well, don't talk about me. What about you? Your family didn't give you a kiss? ”

Gu Lingxian's face was stunned: "Do you want to pick?" Are they all useless readers? My mother also said that I have a cold personality and can do martial arts, so I have to find a scholarly family to complement each other. ”

"That's right. In the future, if you are disobedient, you will show your fists to suppress it. ”

"That's what I thought too." Gu Lingxian nodded in agreement.

Luo Rin's ears were pointed, listening to the conversation between the two people, with a black line.

As he was talking, Nie Qiyang brought everyone over. A large group of people were noisy, and the ginkgo tree was suddenly lively.

Luo Rin asked the reason, and he couldn't smile bitterly.

Ji Qianxia and Gu Lingxian didn't care, they were just idle. It's better to watch a play, and you don't have to spend money.

Ask the pursuing gang first. Claiming to be from the nearby Zhujia Village. There is a family temple with statues of gods, which are taken care of every day. Unexpectedly, two days ago, I found that the idol was missing. didn't report to the official, but secretly searched. I didn't expect to catch this merchant who sent the idol back today.

Needless to say, this guy must have stolen the statue, encountered a bad situation on the road, and quietly sent it back, so he was asked to pay money and be tied up to see the official. This is a party testimony.

The testimony on the merchant side is much more complicated.

It turned out that this foreign merchant released a few days ago, asking his peers to pay attention to wanting to buy a concubine. So a seller came to contact him, saying that a young woman had offended her mother-in-law and was going to be sold. Only fifteen taels of silver. But the young woman herself didn't know, and would coax her to go back to her parents' house to hide from her mother-in-law's anger. Don't disturb her when you get on the boat, lest the young woman cry and start when the boat is far away.

The merchant met from afar, and when he saw that he was beautiful and so cheap, he paid happily. At night, the seller put the young woman on board and left her alone in the cabin. The merchant secretly watched again, quiet and beautiful, and very happy.

After waiting for the boat to cross a hundred miles, I entered the cabin and saw that it was a wooden carved statue, and I was shocked to realize that I had been deceived.

I went back to the ship to find the seller to return the money, but the seller had long since disappeared. knew that the statue of the god was in the Zhu family temple, and sent it back respectfully. Unexpectedly, the villagers of the Zhu family would not let him go. Then he fled.

As soon as the original story came out, everyone understood.

Nie Qi looked up and said: "I have to blame the seller for not being authentic for this." ”

"It's not, it's just that the person is long gone." The merchant paused.

Nie Qi grinded his teeth: "What's so difficult about this, wait for the government to send a signature to arrest and bring it to justice." ”

The little man ...... "The merchant is not willing to wait here."

Qianxia smiled at the villagers of the Zhu family and said, "This thing is not difficult. Those who can steal the idol must be the villagers nearby. Otherwise, who knew that there were wooden statues in Zhujia Temple. Just ask them, there are those scoundrels nearby who match the seller's appearance. ”

"yes."

As soon as the seller's appearance and the place where the merchant went to peek at the young woman came out, some villagers smiled: "Isn't this the human trafficker Chen?" The woman was afraid that she was pretending to be the lady of his family. ”

"Where does Chen live now?"

"I moved out two days earlier."

When a merchant buys a concubine, Chen sees the wealth, and one is willing to fight and the other is willing to suffer! It's just that he was cheated of fifteen taels of silver.

The merchant who learned the truth admitted that he was unlucky, and spent money to eliminate the disaster and admit that he was unlucky.

As for the people of Zhujia Village, they should also go to Chen to lose money. It was Chen who secretly transported the statue to the ship to pretend to be a beauty, and it had nothing to do with the merchants.
