51. Elaborate rabbit carving

"Yu Gongzi, please be seated." Wang Qidao politely pointed to the chair opposite.

"The grass people have thanked you." Yu Qizheng returned the salute and sat down.

"In this way, the official will not go around in circles. I don't know if Yu Gongzi knows Qin Xiaoluan, the head of the Qin family's class? Wang Qidao asked.

"Lord Hui, they are all from the same town, so naturally they have known each other for a long time." Yu Qizheng replied.

"Can you tell us what you think of her?" Wang Qidao asked.

"Views? Of course it's good. Otherwise, it won't be ......" Yu Qizheng hesitated slightly.

"Won't it happen?" Wang Qidao hurriedly asked.

"It's such an adult, Caomin and Qin Xiaoluan not only know each other, but also have a subordinate relationship." Yu Qizheng replied.

"Oh?" Wang Qidao raised his eyebrows.

"Caomin is the business manager of Qinjiaban. Oh, that's what I did. Yu Qizheng added.

"That's kind of interesting. It is said that Yu Gongzi was born into a family, how can he deign to make a purchase in a team of craftsmen? Wang Qidao asked.

"This ......" Yu Qizheng hesitated for a while: "I'm just idle and bored, I want to exercise my ability." ”

"Hehehehe," Wang Qidao laughed: "Yu Gongzi, I can tell you a little bit that Qin Xiaoluan is now being detained in prison by this official because he is suspected of committing a major crime. ”

"Huh? No way? What law did she break? Yu Qizheng hurriedly asked.

Wang Qidao waved his hand: "This is also the reason why I invited you to come, there are some things that need to be confirmed from you, and I hope that Yu Gongzi can cooperate more." ”

"Okay, okay." Yu Qizheng replied: "The grass people promise to know everything and say everything. ”

"Well, that's the question just now, let's just talk now, it's nothing. But if it's in court, or if the transcript is submitted in the future, even if the official believes Childe, do you think other people can believe it? Wang Qidao said.

Yu Qizheng had an embarrassed look on his face, as if he was very conflicted. After a long while, he asked with difficulty, "Do you have to talk about this?" ”

Wang Qidao nodded affirmatively, revealing a subtle smile. Based on his experience, a breakthrough in questioning is on the verge of a breakthrough.

Yu Canghai, who was in the back hall, looked puzzled, thinking that what reason could there be for a son-in-law to do this job willingly?

However, Li Jing's eyes flashed with a hint of a hunter's smile when he saw a fox. Wang Qidao couldn't see it, but he noticed that the embarrassed and contradictory look on Yu Qizheng's face was completely faked. In other words, his next answer is absolutely false.

Yu Qi took a long breath: "I said." Originally, although it was in a town, our family and the Qin family had no contact before. This year, my uncle is going back to his hometown, so the family will build a new house. As a result, this Qin family class was able to build a three-story building, so the Qin family class was invited to build it. So he had a relationship with Qin Jiaban in this way. ”

Wang Qidao gave him an encouraging look and motioned to continue.

A three-story house? It was the first time Li Jing had heard about this matter, and he immediately fell into thought. It seems that this flower is getting more and more difficult.

"Then ......" Yu Qizheng scratched his head and seemed to be a little embarrassed to speak: "Then Yang Buxian of the Yang Family Tea House and I usually play well, don't they usually have a good time?" Your Excellency, you also know that this three-story house is a rarity, so I called Yang Buxian and them to play. ”

"Understand, understand. There are beautiful things without hiding their private interests, and the public is also a friendship of like-minded friends. Wang Qidao said haha.

"No, no," Yu Qizheng showed a look of forgiveness on his face:

"I'll be honest with you, sir, that's actually the way it is. Yang Buxian is the most popular among these birdmen.

Let's talk about the Gong fat man in the Gong family restaurant, oh it's not the old Gong fat man, it's the old Gong fat man's son Xiao Gong Fat man, it's the kid who is about the same age as me. Once I caught a toad, I sent someone to the town to inform me to go over to fight the toad.

I thought to myself: I've played this cockfighting, dog fighting, cricket fighting, or something, but how can this toad fight?

But since everyone has issued a challenge letter, we can't admit it, right?

So he caught a group of toads, picked a few of the strongest ones and went over.

Once the results arrive, guess what?

When they talk about fighting toads, they put two toads in a pot and scare them on the side.

Whoever gets scared to pee first loses.

As a result, all the toads I brought were scared to pee, and he was fine.

I didn't know until I invited them to drink three times in a row, and I didn't know where I had made a medicine that could spill all the urine of his toad in advance, and of course I couldn't win.

They laughed at it for a long time. ”

"Poof!" Princess Li Moning didn't know when she came out and stood beside Li Jing. Hearing this, I couldn't help but laugh out loud. Thinking of the picture that Yu Qi is describing, it is really beautiful. I thought: Aren't you quite arrogant? So there are times like this? This is called the wicked having their own wicked grinding.

"Okay, okay, I know this, let's not talk about this for now." Wang Qidao hurriedly interrupted Yu Qizheng.

That is, a group of rich people who have nothing to do all day long, doing some strange things to kill time. However, this is a reasonable explanation for the reason why Yu Qi is asking Yang Buxian to ask them to see their own house.

As the son of a rich man in the countryside, it is conceivable to be deflated in front of Yang Buxian and their sons who are rich people in the city.

Finally, there is something at home that can be taken out, and it is strange not to shake it a few times.

"Huh?" Yu Qizheng said: "Then don't talk about Gong Fatzi." Another time, Yang Buxian that kid ......"

"No, no, no, no, I mean let's go back to what happened after you called Yang Gongzi and them to your house." Wang Qidao hurriedly said.

What he thought in his heart was: If he doesn't interrupt again, this thing will probably not be able to finish talking about the of their group of two pens until tomorrow.

Yu Qizheng looked unsatisfied: "Okay." Yang Buxian's birdmen went to Luofeng Town, and when they saw our family's new house, their eyes were straight. That would give the buddy a good hand. Don't you know, adult, you were greedy for that kid from the Yang family at that time, hehe......"

Wang Qidao had to interrupt again: "Yu Gongzi, let's make a long story short, be short, be short." As for the friendship between you and Yang Gongzi, it has little to do with this case. ”

"Oh, good." Yu Qizheng nodded and said seriously: "Then Yang Buxian that kid later asked the Qin family class to make a house for them, so I went to the Qin family class to do procurement, probably that's it, I'm done." ”

Wang Qidao's eyes widened, and he couldn't help asking, "No, no, no, I didn't understand." Yu Gongzi, can you explain, this Yang Gongzi and they asked the Qin family class to build a house, and you went to the Qin family class to do procurement, what does it have to do with it? ”

Yu Qizheng looked at Wang Qi with the same expression as Shabi: "How can this be okay?" When Yang Buxian and they also made a three-story house, how can I be majestic? Dude, if I can build this house, those guys will see me in the future and call me respectfully Brother Zheng? ”

Wang Qidao looked at Yu Qizheng blankly, and had to say two words for his magical brain circuit: admiration.

"Have you learned?" Wang Qidao asked.

"Nope." Yu Qizheng replied confidently.

"Didn't you learn this specifically?" Wang Qidao said puzzled.

"It's so hard and tiring. As far as the old craftsmen in their Qin family class are concerned, they have to look at the drawings left by Qin Xiaoluan's father for a long time every day, and they often can't do it well. Yu Qizheng replied.

Li Jing, who had been listening quietly in the back hall, finally solved the doubts just now. If so, it makes sense.

An old craftsman thought of a lifelong study of construction and thought of a way to build a three-story building.

But it's a pity that before I could build it myself, people died. Before he died, he gave his only daughter the results of his research, that is, the drawings.

It is precisely because of these secrets in their hands that those old craftsmen will agree to let her, a young girl, be the head of the class.

Although he had the relevant information in his hand, Qin Xiaoluan himself didn't understand it. So it was taken out in batches, and those old craftsmen worked together to build a three-story building.

Wang Qidao felt that he would be stunned by him sooner or later when he was going around like this, so it was better to simply pick out the words directly: "Qin Xiaoluan is wearing a jade pendant, have you seen it?" ”

"You mean the one she wears around her neck, the one that's so big?" Yu Qi was gesturing his little finger.

"Yes, yes, that's it." Wang Qidao thought to himself that his father was really particular about naming himself.

You look at how well the name is chosen. Enlightenment, under my tireless "enlightenment", even a prodigal like Yu Qizheng finally went to the "Tao".

Yu Qi, who was on the road, showed an extremely obscene smile: "Then of course I have seen it." Once, when he was doing things on the construction site, it might be that the neckline was too tight, or it was too hot, so Qin Xiaoluan untied the neckline. Oh, I'm a good girl, you don't know, adult. Don't look at this little girl's usual fierce tigress, that skin is slippery. Especially the neck piece, tsk tsk......"

Wang Qidao hurriedly coughed a few times to interrupt him. I thought to myself, how can this be said more and more unreasonable, the prince and your uncle are behind.

Li Moning in the back hall blushed, and said suddenly: "Dengzi!" ”

"Ahem, talk about jade." Wang Qidao said.

"I said it. You asked me if I had seen it, and I said I did. Yu Qizheng replied with an aggrieved face.

For such an unobtrusive person, Wang Qidao felt a headache, and he didn't know how to continue asking.

At this time, two soft coughs came from the back hall.

Wang Qidao said to Qi Zheng: "You sit down for a while, and I'll come right away." ”

Yu Qizheng nodded repeatedly.

"What does His Royal Highness the Crown Prince command?" As soon as Wang Qidao arrived in the back hall, he asked directly.

Li Jing beckoned to him and whispered something.

Wang Qidao listened carefully, and looked sympathetically at Yu Canghai, who was already so angry that his whole old face turned purple.

Old Master Yu was really angry today.

was focused on seeing if there was a chance to climb the dragon and the phoenix, but the prince and princess were here, and that kid was actually so "outstanding". Listen, is that all human doing?

At the beginning, it was a group of swingers, cockfighting, dogs, and toads, and then it was getting together to drink and brag. And then it's pretending to be rich, it's easy to go to learn a craft, and I'm afraid of being tired. In the end, there is a lecherous and obscene talk.

That's it, and you still want to recruit a horse? If others agree, I won't agree to it!

Yu Canghaiqi's head hurt, and he didn't notice what the prince and Wang Qidao said. By the time he reacted, Wang Qidao had already received the order and left.

"Come on, drag this bold Diao people down, and hit the 20th board first!" The first thing Wang Qidao did when he returned to the lobby was to slap the shocked wood and say this.

Yu Qizheng was so frightened that his soul was not possessed: "Big man, what are you doing here?" Didn't you say that it was just chatting? ”

At this time, the two officials had already supported him, one on the left and one on the right.

Yu Qizheng trembled like chaff all over his body: "My lord, don't don't fight...... I have something to say. ”

"Stop!" Wang Qidao stopped the servant, and turned to Qi Zheng and said, "I'll give you another chance." If there is any more nonsense, then let's talk about it after eating the board! ”

Yu Qizheng shouted with a crying voice: "I said, I will say everything." ”

Wang Qidao shouted with a frosty face: "This official asks you, what is the relationship between you and that Qin Xiaoluan?" Also, what happened to the two of you in the cave? What is the intersection with that piece of jade? ”

Yu Qizheng sat on the ground all of a sudden, his face was like earth: "My lord, you all, all, you know." ”

Wang Qidao didn't react, and shouted: "Do you say it or not?" ”

"Talk about it, I say it, I'll say it all." Yu Qi said dejectedly.

"What I just said is not true, but I am hiding some things.

Yang Buxian and I were angry, so it was not false to go to the Qin family class to do procurement, but there was another reason.

Qin Xiaoluan is a famous flower in our Luofeng Town, and it grows very bright. I've long been moved by her.

That's why I went to her hands, first find a way to get closer, and then slowly find an opportunity to start.

Later, he fell into a hole with her.

The piece of jade you mentioned was also picked up by me in it.

Later, after I escaped, I used that piece of jade to carve a seal - a perfect match, a good couple.

Because I belong to a rabbit, I carefully carved a rabbit on the knob.

Then he went to give her this piece of jade, and lied to her that this is our family's ancestral treasure, and it is passed on to the legitimate daughter-in-law. ”

……

Li Jing, who was in the back hall, listened to his words, took out the jade pendant, looked at the little beast above, and almost laughed so much that he almost vomited rice.

Prince Ben has always wondered, is this a tiger, a cat or a dog, and what is the point of carving this animal?

And now you're telling me it's a rabbit! It's a bunny!

And it's also because you belong to the rabbit that you carefully carved out the "rabbit"!

This explains Li Jing's previous doubts: why the person who carved this piece of jade would have advanced carving skills, but carved such a clumsy thing on a good piece of jade.

Only a loser like Yu Qizheng will do it indiscriminately regardless of what good or bad jade is.

Perhaps he thought that his carving was very good, and that he would be able to carve out the best jade under his "meticulous" carving.

Oh, maybe the word could be removed. But it must be so! Because only a gentleman like him, who doesn't know the height of the sky, will have a mysterious confidence in himself.

As for the esoteric carving techniques on the jade, it is also easy to explain. It's sure when to go to a skilled craftsman to learn, but he refuses to start with the basics. Because for a person like him, the purpose of learning anything is to pretend to be better, and the bells and whistles just look good.

Now there is only one crucial question left: why did Qin Xiaoluan lie about the origin of the jade? Yu Qizheng himself refused to admit it at the beginning?
