Chapter 68: Flirting
"The adults judge the case like a god, and the little one is afraid of being recognized by the adults and dare not go to the county office, in fact, the small one is not to let Mrs. Chen give justice to the little one, but the Miss Zhou. dm

The round-faced young man wiped the cold sweat on his head and said with an embarrassed expression, "Mrs. Chen never intervenes in the case, and that Miss Zhou is so angry and jealous that she is like hatred, so the little one made up a trick to deceive Miss Zhou's favor from the beginning, and asked Miss Zhou to award the money bag to the little one, and then the little one spends the money, and the adult can no longer pursue it." β
As soon as these words came out, the people outside the hall were in an uproar, no one thought that the round-faced young man was so shameless, and he actually used Zhou Yuting's kindness to achieve the purpose of possessing the money bag.
Zhou Yuting knew that she had been deceived at this time, biting her lip, clenching her pink fist, and glaring at the round-faced young man with a frosty mask, eager to draw her sword and chop the bastard with a sword.
Seeing this, Chen Ningning wanted to comfort Zhou Yuting a few words, but she didn't know how to say it, so she could only stand there silently, hoping that Zhou Yuting would grow wise and not be so impulsive next time.
At this point, the facts of the case have become very clear, and Li Yuntian sentenced the round-faced young man to 30 boards, fined 10 taels of silver, and served one year of forced labor in the county.
The ten taels of fine silver did not enter the accounts of the county yahu's house, but was sentenced by Li Yuntian to the young man with a national character face, and asked him to see his mother who was sick in **, as a punishment for the round-faced young man.
As soon as this verdict came out, the people gathered outside the hall cheered and applauded, Li Yuntian not only solved the case beautifully, but also gave the young man with a national character face very humanely, which made his already tall image in the eyes of everyone more and more magnificent.
Zhou Yuting left the Inspection Division with a lonely expression, and after returning to her residence in Chen's mansion, she asked the red-clothed maid to pack her luggage, willing to lose the gamble, and she was ready to leave Baishui Town and return to the capital immediately according to the agreement with Li Yuntian.
Chen Ningning saw that she had made up her mind, and didn't know how to persuade her, so she vaguely guessed the content of Li Yuntian and her whispers in the lobby of the Inspection Division.
Zhou Yuting sat on a chair in the bedroom with her hands and knees, feeling lost, her eyes gloomy, and she was thinking about her thoughts there in a daze.
She had never been hit so hard since she could remember, and she never imagined that her kindness would be used by a round-faced young man, if it wasn't for Li Yuntian's timely arrival, she would almost have created an unjust case.
She just couldn't get used to those who bullied others, and never thought that she would one day become a model of bullying people, and she insisted on making the strong man who lost his money bag confess.
What was still unacceptable to her was that Li Yuntian would drive her out of here, did he hate himself so much? This is undoubtedly a shame for her, how can she raise her head in front of Li Yuntian in the future.
Moreover, Zhou Yuting now suspects that Li Yuntian deliberately wanted to make a bet, the purpose is to get her to leave Baishui Town, and that guy's city government must have seen something.
Zhou Yuting suddenly found that she was very stupid, knowing that Li Yuntian was a cunning person, wouldn't it be humiliating to make a bet with him.
"Li Gongzi!" Just when Zhou Yuting was feeling sorry for herself there, the voice of the red-clothed girl suddenly came from the door.
When she looked up, Li Yuntian strode in, and closed the door after entering.
"You don't need to urge, I'll leave later!" Seeing Li Yuntian, Zhou Yuting suddenly became angry, couldn't help but roll her eyes at him, and said angrily.
"Do you regret making a bet with me now?" Li Yuntian smiled slightly, moved a chair and sat in front of Zhou Yuting, looking at her with a smile.
"Yes, I regret it, if I win, I will never have to face a treacherous person like you again." Zhou Yuting saw Li Yuntian showing off his might in front of her, bit her lip, her eyes widened, and she looked at him unwillingly.
"I gave you a chance, but unfortunately you didn't take it." Li Yuntian smiled and spread his hands, and said with a pretended regret, "Otherwise, someone as annoying as me will not appear in front of you again in the future." β
"What do you want?" Zhou Yuting looked at the triumphant Li Yuntian, her eyes couldn't help but be a little red, she had never suffered this kind of, raised her chin, and said coldly.
"It's very simple, I want you to know that you did something wrong today, and some things are not as simple as they appear on the surface."
Li Yuntian saw that Zhou Yuting's eyes were rosy, so he restrained his smile and looked at her solemnly, "Do you know that if Hou Ye's enemies know that you are privately executed in the lobby of the Inspection Division, then in the future, it will be a sharp dagger stabbing at Hou Ye. β
"Don't scare me, I just let people beat him a few times, where is there such a big crime? What's the matter with my father? Looking at the serious Li Yuntian, Zhou Yuting was stunned, and then asked unconvinced.
"The lobby of the Inspection Department is an important place in the barracks, how can anyone beat people there? Although you did this thing, but without the protection of Hou Ye, do you really think that you can be safe and sound with what you have done? β
Seeing that Zhou Yuting still didn't understand what he meant, Li Yuntian couldn't help but smile bitterly, and said depressedly, "You have been in the capital for so many years, haven't you heard of the party fighting against differences?" I don't know that officialdom is sinister, every step is like walking on thin ice, and a catastrophe will come if you are not careful? β
"The party is the same and the party is different? Skate on thin ice? Zhou Yuting felt that Li Yuntian didn't seem to be joking, her eyes showed a look of doubt, she had been carefree since she was a child, where did she know about the affairs of officialdom, and the sky in the Hou Ye Mansion was completely supported by the Zhongyong Hou.
"You should know that the reason why the Holy Lord can reign over the world today is because of the nobles like Hou Ye who fight bravely on the battlefield, and the most trusted by the Holy Lord is also them, who firmly suppressed those civil servants who claim to be scholars and doctors in the court, and the grievances between the two sides are quite deep, and the momentum is like fire and water."
Li Yuntian pondered for a while, and said to Zhou Yuting with a solemn expression, "The saint is now old, I'm afraid he won't be able to last a few years, if it is decided today, the Northern Yuan Dynasty has no former climate after years of conquest, and once the new emperor ascends the throne, he will reuse Wenchen to govern the country, and then the two sides will definitely fight to the death for the power in the court, and put the other party to death quickly, and whoever has less handle will face less danger." β
"How do you know these things?" After listening to Li Yuntian's words, Zhou Yuting looked at him with a surprised expression, and after Li Yuntian said this, she suddenly felt that the capital suddenly became terrifying.
"Not only me, but many people know and are also preparing, so if you want to think about Hou Ye now, you have to make fewer mistakes." Li Yuntian shook his head helplessly, it seems that Zhou Yuting has been broken by **, and she doesn't know the sinister nature of the world at all.
"Are you scaring me?" Zhou Yuting flickered her long eyelashes a few times, feeling that Li Yuntian was a little alarmist, and couldn't help but ask suspiciously.
"Why should I scare you?" Li Yuntian smiled slightly when he heard this, suddenly held Zhou Yuting's hands, and said with a smile, "I see that you are stupid, you like to fight unevenly, and I am afraid that you will suffer losses in the future, so I remind you, otherwise maybe someone else will sell you and help others count the money?" β
"You're stupid!" Zhou Yuting didn't expect Li Yuntian to shake her hand, and subconsciously shrank back, but Li Yuntian grabbed it very tightly and she didn't break free, so she gave up, two blushes appeared on her cheeks involuntarily, and then the corners of her eyebrows went up, glared at Li Yuntian and said, "Who dares to sell this girl, this girl slashed him with a sword!" β
"Whoever will come to this kind of thing openly, it must be secretly casting cold arrows behind the scenes." Li Yuntian saw that Zhou Yuting was just struggling slightly, and the corners of his mouth couldn't help but show a smile of relief, according to Zhou Yuting's character, he was really afraid that Zhou Yuting would slap him, and the scene would be embarrassing at that time.
However, now it seems that Zhou Yuting actually didn't hate him as much as he thought before, and he couldn't help but sigh in his heart, a woman's heart is really incomprehensible!
Zhou Yuting's willow eyebrows frowned slightly, Li Yuntian was right, open guns are easy to dodge, hidden arrows are difficult to prevent, God knows what secret moves the other party will make.
"Are you asking me for peace?" Then, as if she had thought of something, her bright eyes flashed, and she looked at Li Yuntian with a sly expression.
"Well, I shouldn't have done that to you in the lobby today, and I shouldn't have made a bet with you." Li Yuntian was slightly stunned, he didn't expect Zhou Yuting to think of this, and then laughed, and admitted it very happily, anyway, there is no shame in putting a proper posture in front of his fiancΓ©e.
"It's late, I'll tell you, since you won me, then I'll follow your wishes and go back to the capital immediately, don't think about me in the future!" Zhou Yuting saw that Li Yuntian actually admitted it, and immediately felt very happy, and then she was refreshed, spit out the stuffiness in her chest, snorted coldly, and glared at Li Yuntian angrily.
"Do you really want to do what I want?" Li Yuntian couldn't help but smile bitterly when he heard this, and said with a depressed face.
"Of course, this girl's words always count!" Seeing that Li Yuntian looked a little helpless, Zhou Yuting raised her chin and said in a coquettish voice, and she couldn't help but feel relieved in her heart, it turned out that Li Yuntian also had times when she was helpless.
"In that case, then you can wait until you return to the door before going to the capital." Li Yuntian saw Zhou Yuting looking at him quite proudly, so he couldn't help laughing, deliberately meditated there for a while, and then said seriously.
He and Zhou Yuting's wedding date is set for the end of the year, when the marriage will be held in Shimen County, Jinan Prefecture, and then the two will go to the General's Mansion in the capital to greet the Marquis Zhongyong.
Now it's almost the end of the year, since Zhou Yuting is here from the capital, it is better to go to Shimen County with him at that time, anyway, he will be picked up from the Zhou family in Shimen County at that time.
Besides, with Zhou Yuting's character, he was worried that she would cause some trouble when she returned to the capital, so it was better to stay by his side and watch him.
"Are you begging this girl to stay?" Zhou Yuting heard this, a smile appeared on the corner of her mouth, and she looked at Li Yuntian quite proudly.
"Didn't you say you wanted to do as I wanted?" Li Yuntian pretended to be puzzled and looked at Zhou Yuting, and reminded her "kindly", "Think about it, when we bet, I only said that you would go back to the capital, but I didn't say when you would go back." β
The smile on the corner of Zhou Yuting's mouth froze, and she looked at the serious Li Yuntian with a surprised expression, and vaguely realized that she seemed to have fallen for Li Yuntian.
"Haha......" After the two stared at each other for a while, Li Yuntian finally couldn't help laughing.
"Okay, so you're scheming on me!" Zhou Yuting finally reacted now, realizing that she had fallen for Li Yuntian again, so angry that she stretched out her foot and kicked Li Yuntian's chair.
She can be sure that Li Yuntian has already designed a qiΔ, waiting for her to jump in the trap, and then obediently follow Li Yuntian back to Shimen County to get married.
Her kick was very strong, and Li Yuntian's body fell to the ground with the chair and fell heavily to the ground.
"You...... You're alright. Zhou Yuting was startled when she saw this, and hurriedly went over to help Li Yuntian, who fell to the ground, and asked with a concerned expression.
Li Yuntian didn't have a big deal, so he took Zhou Yuting into his arms and hugged him tightly, for a rude and willful girl like Zhou Yuting, she must mainly take the initiative to be effective.
Zhou Yuting struggled a few times, then gave up resistance, and let Li Yuntian hug her, only then did she realize that Li Yuntian's chest was actually quite explainable.
"Miss......" The red-clothed maid ring outside the door heard the sound and pushed open the door to come in to check, and saw Li Yuntian holding Zhou Yuting in his arms, and hurriedly covered his eyes with both hands, and retreated as if he had escaped.
