Chapter Forty-Eight: I'm There. Don't be afraid
After that, Liu Yin'e glanced at Wen Yao mockingly.
They all said that this girl should not marry this kind of person.
Now it's okay, as soon as I marry myself, my husband will have a lawsuit, and I have to be a widow again!
If you don't listen to your elders, you deserve it!
……
Icheon County, County Yamen.
Two majestic stone lions squatted on both sides of the Yamen Zhumen, the atmosphere was solemn, and it was also a place where ordinary people were afraid.
The official took the two to the door, asked the two to wait for a while, and then went in to report.
Although I have seen it countless times on ancient TV, it is still different to be immersed in oneself.
Wen Yao's heartbeat accelerated slightly, and when she looked at Yuan Jin beside her, her handsome facial features were still like a quiet lake, without any waves, calmly as if this was her own vegetable garden, and she had been here countless times.
Seeing Wen Yao coming to the public gate for the first time, he was a little unaccustomed, he suddenly leaned close to her ear, lowered his voice, and said in a thick reassuring tone:
"I'm here. Don't be afraid. ”
Wen Yao saw through his careful thoughts, his face was slightly hot, and he muttered, "I'm not afraid." ”
As soon as the words fell, he felt that the snails under his sleeves were grasped by a wide hand, and the five fingers were interlocked, firmly informed.
Then, the man's slightly teasing voice came again: "Why is the lady's hands sweating?" ”
She took a breath and quickly tried to pull his hand away, but he still held on tightly.
I don't know why, after he held his hand like this, the tension in his heart disappeared by half, and he relaxed a lot.
After a while, she couldn't help but be curious: "You...... Really not nervous at all? ”
That's not a small matter. After all, it hurts people, or it hurts seriously.
What if he is sentenced to prison, exile or something?
His starry eyes did not rise or fall, only his beautiful and slender lips were raised, staring at her deeply, and his tone was a little satisfied: "Lady is afraid that I will go to prison, will you be widowed?" ”
Wen Yao nodded honestly.
It was because of her that he seriously injured Brother Liu Shun.
If she was punished for herself, she would be a little sorry.
Besides, she was used to having him as her husband.
Seeing her nodding, his face became more and more satisfied: "Don't worry, since the lady doesn't want me to go to jail, then I will never go to jail." ”
...... "Your family opened the county yamen, is your father Li Gang?"
Now that Brother Liu Shun's family has gone to court, and the yamen have come to the Wen family to get people, the evidence is complete, can he really get out?
Wen Yao didn't say much, and the official hurriedly came out and let the two in.
Wen Yao withdrew her hand, could only look at him first, and walked up the stairs with him and stepped into the yamen.
Inside the courtroom, the atmosphere was more serious than outside.
Only echoes the cry of Liu's mother:
"Lord Qingtian...... You must be in charge of my son......"
Brother Liu Shun was lying on the stretcher on the ground weakly, one arm and one leg were firmly bandaged with gauze, just like a zongzi, and when he saw Yuan Jin coming in, it was like seeing a ghost, and his face was frightened.
Wen Yao went over to worship the county lord and reported the names of herself and Yuan Jin, but saw that the man behind her did not follow, so she looked back.
Yuan Jin still stood a few inches inside the threshold, his pen was very straight, and he didn't mean to salute, and his face was also light and light.
Where it is like coming to the yamen, it is like coming to the teahouse to drink tea.
The magistrate of Lichuan County, surnamed Li, saw that the defendant was so arrogant, and he was shocked:
"The people in the hall, how can this be reasonable, how can the people see the officials not to worship?"
Wen Yao Chong Yuan blinked.
Yuan Jin's hands were only behind his back, and he didn't move, and his handsome eyes, which were as long as sideburns, added a little impatient coolness.
His eyes slowly wandered over Li Zhixian's official robe, his thin lips moved slightly, and his expression seemed to be smiling rather than smiling.
Worship a seven-rank official? It depends on whether he can afford it.
Li Zhixian was stunned by the look of the man in the hall.
This look looks like his county master should worship him.
The last time I saw this kind of look, it was when the high-ranking officials in the capital came to inspect Lichuan County, when he was accompanying him, the high-ranking officials looked at the eyes of these small officials in the county.
It's just that this man's eyes are more sharp, sharp, deep, and unfathomable.
Wen Yao saw that the county master's face began to deteriorate, and sighed in her heart.
This Yuan Jin, on weekdays, just looks dead and unburied in front of people, but today he is in the court, it is a matter of whether he is in prison, or he treats the county like this, does he not leave a bad impression on the county?
She hurriedly saluted Yuan Jin in the past:
"County master, I'm sorry, you have a lot, don't care, my grandson is a foreigner, I haven't read, I haven't entered such a big county yamen, I don't like to talk, I don't understand the rules, and..."
This is also the method she thought of along the way.
When I arrived at the Yamen, I saw the official, and I said so!
said that Yuan Jin's brain is not good, so that the yamen can also be sentenced lightly.
What do fools know?
You can't catch a fool and go to jail, can you?!
Yuan Jin saw Wen Yao burying himself like this, his handsome face suddenly collapsed, and he was about to speak, but the hand under the cuff was secretly pinched by the little woman next to him, and when he saw the look of 'don't talk, I'm in charge' handed over by Wen Yao, he finally pressed it down and let her go.
Li Zhixian heard Wen Yao say this, his face was still a little ugly, this man is a fool?
I've lived for most of my life, and I've never seen such a fool with such a beautiful moon and a jade tree in the wind!
But he finally didn't say anything more.
Everyone has said so, if you are a county magistrate, why bother with a fool?
If you force a fool to kneel and bow, you will become a joke.
Li Zhixian put away his displeasure and said to Wen Yao: "Brother Liu Shun, the son of the Liu family, was broken the night before, and after being carried home, he told his parents that it was related to your husband and wife. What else do you guys want to say!? ”
Mother Liu immediately cried like a splash:
"My son...... I was so hurt by you that I broke a leg and a hand, and the doctor saw it and said that the meridians were broken, and it couldn't be cured anymore, and I would become a waste person in the future...... My poor son, who was a very good young man, is now disabled for the rest of his life, and he will be on crutches all his life...... County master, you have to call the shots for our brother Shun......"
Wen Yao glanced at Brother Liu Shun who was lying on the ground like a dead pig, and sneered in her heart.
Great youth? Bah!
Then, word by word:
"County master, that night I was on the way back to the village from the town, on the way I met Brother Liu Shun and two fox friends to intercept me, before Brother Liu Shun wanted to propose to me, but I refused, seeing that I passed on to others, I held a grudge and wanted to wait for an opportunity to retaliate. My husband-in-law Yuan Wu happened to come to pick me up, and when he saw this scene, he naturally drove the three of them for me, and then took me back. ”
