"What? Runaway? After Li Sanjian heard that Li Wanting had escaped marriage and came to Quanzhou, he was immediately startled and almost fell off his horse.

Running away from marriage and eloping is a major event, according to the law of the Song Dynasty, the elopement is guilty, and the adulterer is also guilty.

The woman elopement, bad reputation, loss of women's morality, is generally dealt with by the family law, that is to say, after the government catches the woman elopement, it is generally handed over to her family, by the family law to deal with, at the same time the family can dispose of the woman elope at will, even if she is killed, it is only sentenced to prison for the beater, and finally it is to redeem the copper fine.

And those who commit adultery with women elopement are more guilty.

For example, Li Wanting has been engaged to Zhu Mian in Suzhou, and after the "six rites" have completed the five ceremonies, they are about to welcome their relatives, of course, at this time Li Sanjian did not know that Zhu Mian did not welcome marriage...

At this time, Li Wanting escaped to Quanzhou, if Li Sanjian accepted her, Li Sanjian would become the person who had adultery with Li Wanting, then Zhu Mian could have confronted Li Sanjian in court and sued Li Sanjian for the crime of "intimidating and forcibly marrying and taking someone as a wife", and the person who was a wife and concubine would be imprisoned for three years, that is, Li Sanjian would be imprisoned for three years, so Li Sanjian's official would naturally be the end.

Li Sanjian also had a crime, that is, "marrying a wife", and the "Song Criminal Rule" stipulates that "those who marry wives and those who marry each shall be imprisoned for two years, and the concubines shall be reduced by two degrees, and each shall be divorced." The act of marrying a married wife and concubine and the act of a husband marrying a wife and concubine is called "marrying a wife".

No matter what kind of crime, as long as he is investigated by the imperial court, then even if Li Sanjian can be exempted from prison in the end, it is inevitable that he will be dismissed from office and sentenced to cane.

Li Sanjian used to be the magistrate and judge of Kaifeng Mansion, how could he not understand Song Law? Li Sanjian can be said to know it well, so he was so frightened that he almost fell off the horse at this time...

The peerless beauty came to Quanzhou to find Li Sanjian, and Li Sanjian had embraced the beauty into his arms, but at the same time, Li Sanjian also embraced a big trouble into his arms...

"What? Are you scared? Li Wanting tilted her head and looked at Li Sanjian, and asked with a smile.

"Afraid? Hahahahaha! Li Sanjian relieved his mood with a smile, then rolled off the horse, and then hugged Li Wanting off the saddle.

"Wanting, I'll ask you." Li Sanjian then put his hands on Li Wanting's shoulders, which were still trembling slightly, and asked, "In the end, did you visit the Suzhou Zhu family?" ”

The key to this matter is whether Li Wanting is Zhu Mian's wife...

"In the first few days of the wedding, slave... The slave family ran out, where... Where can I go to church? Li Wanting looked at Li Sanjian with a red face and replied in a low voice.

"Whew..." When Li Sanjian heard this, he immediately exhaled a long breath.

Fortunately, fortunately, Li Sanjian secretly said in his heart, according to the wedding ceremony in this world, it is necessary to go through the "six ceremonies", and finally visit the church to get married, at least Li Sanjian can use this to quibble, and there are still some reasons.

Since Zhu Mian and Li Wanting did not officially marry in the church, then Li Wanting is not Zhu Mian's official wife, and at the same time, the charges of "intimidating and forcibly marrying, taking others as wives" and "marrying a wife" will not be placed on his head, Li Sanjian secretly said in his heart.

There is also the fact that the same surname cannot be married, but the same surname that is not of the same clan is not included in this list, so it is impossible to know whether Li Sanjian's Li and Li Wanting's Li are of the same clan.

However, the double Li is in the same groove, which is always not a good omen in the eyes of the world, and at the same time, it was a family five hundred years ago, and it was pulled up for dozens of generations, Li Sanjian and Li Wanting must be from the same case, but Li Sanjian at this time can't take care of it much.

Li Sanjian and Li Qingzhao also encountered the same problem back then, and Li Sanjian never expected that the same problem would occur at this time.

In the future, but there is a chance, it is necessary to revise such an unreasonable "Household Marriage Law", just like the unreasonable laws such as surnames cannot be married, different ethnic groups cannot be married, etc., Li Sanjian said secretly in his heart.

"Lee... Great officials... Are you scared? Li Wanting said in a low voice again: "The slave family knows that the little woman came to Quanzhou, which brought a lot of troubles and troubles to Li Daguan, and it was the slave family who was reckless, and the slave family left, which... ”

"!" Li Sanjian suddenly burst into a foul language, which startled Li Wanting, and looked at Li Sanjian in a daze: "If Li is afraid, he will not look for you today, if Li cares, he will not ask about this matter in detail, I am not afraid, Wanting, you don't have to be afraid, the sky is falling and Li is holding it for you, it is a big deal to lose your official position and resign, what are you afraid of?" It's rare to be heroic, and it's the hardest to get the grace of a beauty! Wanting, you are like this to Li, what does it matter if Li pays some price? Besides, this matter can be big or small, and it is not so easy for others to use this to control the official! ”

Since Li Wanting is really not Zhu Mian's wife, then Song Law can't convict Li Sanjian, so what remains is Li Sanjian's private morality, and Li Sanjian may be criticized by others and criticized by the world.

But criticism, private morality, and criticism are nothing compared to Li Wanting's deep affection for Li Sanjian.

Li Sanjian cares about reputation, but reputation has to come at the cost of rejecting Li Wanting, and Li Sanjian would rather not. In other words, Li Sanjian doesn't want to be a saint who doesn't eat fireworks in the world, so why do you care about doing so much?

The falling flowers are intentional, how can the flowing water be ruthless? If you are ruthless, you can't be considered human.

Li Wanting is a daughter's family, and she is still a daughter who has not left the cabinet, but for the sake of Li Sanjian, she disregarded her own name and integrity, and disregarded her own safety, and came all the way to Quanzhou to find Li Sanjian, so affectionate, how could Li Sanjian refuse? If Li Sanjian refuses her, then Li Wanting may have only one way to die. fresh

A woman less than 20 years old, almost alone, traveled thousands of miles to Quanzhou, the danger and hardship along the way cannot be described in words, and it is also unimaginable.

Thinking of this, Li Sanjian couldn't help but pity Li Wanting even more, so he stretched out his hands and hugged Li Wanting tightly into his arms, looked at Li Wanting's pear blossom jade face like rain, and said softly: "Wanting, it's really hard for you." ”

"Li Daguanren... Li Wanting leaned on Li Sanjian's arms, tears sliding down her cheeks like beads with broken threads.

"Remove the word 'Li Da'!" Li Sanjian said to Li Wanting with a smile.

"Official... Woo woo woo ... The difference between the two words, but the meaning is worlds apart, which shows that Li Sanjian has completely accepted Li Wanting, and after thinking about it day and night for a long time, at this time, he has finally achieved a positive result, how can Li Wanting not be overjoyed? How can you not weep with joy?

At this time, Li Wanting lay in Li Sanjian's arms, grievances, worries, fears, nervousness, happiness, distress and other complex emotions were vented out in one go, and the more she cried, the louder she became.

Li Sanjian stroked Li Wanting's hair and comforted him gently.

The afterglow of the setting sun stretched the figures of the two men almost overlapping each other longer and longer.

"Official, today... Today... You want a slave family... At this time, the two people hugging each other were getting hotter and hotter, and Li Wanting said to Li Sanjian with a red face.

"Okay, the little lady is gracious, how can Li have a reason to refuse? But where do you do good deeds? Is it here? The girl wants to fight in the field, so of course Li will give up her life to accompany the gentleman! Li Sanjian laughed and said flirtatious words, which made people red-faced.

In fact, this was deliberately done by Li Sanjian.

Li Sanjian understands that Li Wanting, as a woman who has not left the cabinet, mentioned this matter at this time, not because she was bold or disregarded for her face, but because she was afraid, afraid that Li Sanjian would regret it, afraid of seeing Li Sanjian's family, afraid... In short, she is afraid of many things, if she has the joy of fish and water with Li Sanjian, in her mind, it seems to be branded with Li Sanjian's mark, and she will truly become Li Sanjian's woman, so that Li Wanting's nervous and scared mood can be eased a little.

Li Sanjian is a person who is very good at observing words and feelings, so he probably guessed Li Wanting's thoughts, so he made a joke to relieve her nervous and scared mood.

"Smack!" Sure enough, when Li Wanting heard this, she slapped Li Sanjian on the face, and said angrily: "Bah, you don't have a face, the slave family still needs a face." ”

"Haha, where are you going? Where is the place where we live and fly? Li Sanjian laughed.

At this time, Li Sanjian had not yet told his mother Fu Erniang and his wife Cai Rongxue about Li Wanting, so he did not dare to lead Li Wanting into the house.

Fu Erniang is better, Fu Erniang's strategy for the Li family's hundred-year plan is to win by quantity, of course, the more the better.

And where are Cai Rongxue and Wang Wen, especially Cai Rongxue, Li Sanjian is really difficult to talk about, and I don't know how to mention this?

"Official, please come with me!" Li Wanting said after sly smiling at Li Sanjian.

At this time, Li Wanting had a slightly weird and eccentric "rebellious" girl appearance, which made Li Sanjian's heart itch. . .

"Haha, still with you? I'll take you there, or an official, and you will show you the way. Li Sanjian smiled and took the healthy horse that had been waiting quietly, first hugged Li Wanting to the saddle, and then turned over on the horse and sat behind Li Wanting.

"Drive..." Li Sanjian's right hand passed through Li Wanting's armpit and grabbed the reins of the horse, and with his left hand, he waved the horsewhip and shouted in his mouth, urging the horse forward.

As soon as the horse neighed, he spread his hooves and galloped on the surging beach, splashing the two of them, making Li Wanting "giggle" and laugh.

"The water is bright and sunny, and the mountains are empty and rainy." Li Sanjian, who was riding on a horse, groaned loudly.

"The official has written a new poem again?" Li Sanjian's literary brilliance, Li Wanting has already understood it, so she thought it was Li Sanjian's poetry.

"Definitely! This poem was written by a teacher! Li Sanjian replied.

"Oh... Well? Chant poetry, chant poetry, what kind of weapon to show, people are so uncomfortable! You say that you are a scholar, what do you do with a sword all day long? ”

"Haha, this is not a sword, but a knife, the knife is the knife of Xiao Li Feidao, Li is the Li of Xiao Li Feidao...

"Phew, don't think that people don't know anything, hmph, what kind of master there is, what kind of disciple there is..."
