Chapter 430: Entering Beijing
Although he encountered such an episode, He Shuhuan almost lost his life, but fortunately, there was no danger, and the subsequent journey was smooth, and they soon arrived in the capital.
"The capital is much more prosperous than ours." Mei Qingqian deliberately sighed, after all, she was a country woman, and she didn't react in surprise, and the suspicious carefree had to ask questions again.
She read for almost two quarters of an hour, Li Xun hadn't come back yet, she was a little anxious in her heart, the old mansion was not far away, why did he go for so long?
She had seen his light skills, and knew that he would definitely not be discovered, could it be that he was sick?
She can't go to the back mountain now, otherwise she will alarm her mother and little sister, and if it is not an illness, wouldn't she let Li Xun go to her again.
She was absent-minded, and her reading was a little distracted, but she didn't dare to stop, and she didn't know what she was reading.
So after another quarter of an hour, a dark shadow flashed at the window, and Li Xun jumped into the house without a sound.
Mei Qingqian was taken aback, "Why is it so long?" ”
Li Xun's face was very ugly, and he even had some anger.
"I went to the county office." He replied.
Mei Qingqian was a little surprised, "What's the matter?" ”
"Mei Kang went back to eat and drink, saying that he didn't know why he was released, and the Taoist priest was still locked up."
Li Xun's brows furrowed, and his dark eyes showed a look of disgust.
He continued: "I had to go to the county government office to investigate, even if I was acquitted, and there was a case file. ”
"What did you find?" Mei Qingqian looked at his expression, and knew that he had found it, and it was not very good.
"Aunt Zhang said that Meishan left the village, didn't you find out that he never came back?" Li Xun asked.
"Then how do I know if he will come back......" Mei Qingqian was very disdainful of Mei Shan, and was a little impatient at the mention of him, but halfway through the words, suddenly her expression became strange. 、
"You, you mean that Meishan went to apologize for Meikang?" She was so taken aback that she stumbled a little when she spoke.
Li Xun snorted coldly, "He went to the county government to surrender himself, saying that everything was arranged by him and the Taoist priest, because he was not used to marrying into the palace and being divorced, and when he came back, he was old and confused, and Mei Kang was at fault because of his filial piety." ”
"What did the Taoist priest say? How could he follow Meishan's words? Mei Qingqian became a little irritable, what is going on.
Meishan directly took all the blame on himself, saying that he deceived the Taoist priest, and asked Mei Kang to invite the Taoist priest to dinner for him, saying that he was old and confused, and almost killed the two juniors. As soon as the Taoist priest heard that someone excused himself, he naturally would not expose it. Li Xun's voice became colder and colder, "Zhou County's order is really good." ”
Mei Qingqian was also a little angry, "Zhou County's order is not investigated? ”
"Zhou County Ling felt that these matters involved more family matters, and it was difficult for the Qing officials to decide, so he wanted to close the case as soon as possible." Li Xun said.
"Then if the offender is not punished as long as someone condemns the crime, will not the world be in chaos?" Mei Qingqian shook her head helplessly, "Mei Kang really doesn't know at all?" He was so relieved that he let his father, who was still lame at his age, take the blame for himself? ”
She felt some pity for Meishan, but it was pity rather than sympathy, because she couldn't sympathize.
Pity is pity for the hearts of parents in the world, but sympathy cannot be given to Meishan.
If you change to others, you will be moved by Mei Shan's feelings for her son, but Mei Qingqian will not, because Mei Shan's love for Mei Kang is unprincipled, and he even sacrifices the rest of the family.
"Mei Kang doesn't seem to know, but I guess he does, and he won't go to the county office to explain." Li Xun said disdainfully, "He is used to his father's dedication to him, and he takes it for granted, or he thinks that as long as he becomes an official, he can take his father back, and his father's sacrifice is also for them to live a better life in the future." ”
"Yes, he feels that he can bring wealth to the Mei family, and everyone has to pay for him." Mei Qingqian became more and more disgusted with Mei Kang, this kind of person is really disgusting, and he pollutes the air when he lives
"What are your plans? Do you need to let Meishan's plan fall through? Li Xun didn't do anything, and came back directly to ask for her opinion.
Mei Qingqian thought about it, and then shook her head, "Pity the hearts of parents all over the world, just satisfy Meishan's intention to protect his son." ”
Li Xun glanced at her, his eyes were a little strange.
"What's wrong? Think I'm ruthless? Or do you think I'm soft-hearted? Mei Qing asked with a light smile.
"Obviously you want to see others suffer the consequences, but you still say it so compassionately, you don't blush at all." Li Xun said with a smile.
Mei Qingqian subconsciously slapped him, "I have nothing to blush, I won't be embarrassed to hurt others, not to mention that this is still in their minds." ”
Li Xun grabbed her hand on the side, and he didn't know if it was intentional or if it was a natural reaction of a person who practiced martial arts, her hand was wrapped in his palm and paused between the two.
"Ah, let go!" Mei Qingqian reacted, and her face burned all of a sudden.
Li Xun let go of his hand, but laughed in a low voice, "I also said that I won't blush." ”
"Nonsense, what can you see when the light is so dim?" Mei Qingqian glanced at him, "Don't say it, I went back to the house to sleep, I stayed too long, my mother didn't know what to say when she asked." ”
Li Xun laughed even more, and simply laughed out loud, "Your mother won't ask, she will only be happy for you." ”
Mei Qingqian understood what he meant, her face became even hotter, and she simply ran away. Li Xun looked at her back and laughed, then went behind him to get the tools from the cabinet next to her, put them on the end of his nose and sniffed them.
He was very curious about how she did it, always keeping the fragrance of flowers so intact, even she always had a good smell on her body, not to say what kind of flower fragrance it was, it should be a unique smell that only belonged to her.
Mei Qingqian returns to the room, her mother is still sewing in front of the lamp, and Fluttershy is sitting next to her to collect the soles of her shoes.
"Sister, you're back." Mei Fandie said with a smile.
Mei Qing's shallow face became hot again, and when it was over, even her sister came to make fun of her.
Su Xing lightly slapped Mei Fan Die, "You have a lot of things, how do you talk?" ”
"I didn't say anything, my mother is so partial." Mei Fandie said something complaining, but there was no complaint on her face, but she smiled very happily.
"Okay, I'm going to wash up and go to bed, I have some work to do tomorrow, and I'm going to the town to deliver the goods the day after tomorrow, so Fluttershy will come with me the day after tomorrow?" She asked.
"Okay, I'll go with you." Fluttershy says happily.
She actually wants to ask, isn't her brother-in-law going? If her brother-in-law wants to go, she won't be in the way, and her brother-in-law is always a little scary to watch.
There was nothing to say all night, and the next morning, Mei Qingqian got up and had breakfast and continued to do his work, and in the afternoon, Mei Ling actually came over in person.
