"Dad, what's the point of calling the child so late?" Xu Xianglin bowed his head and asked, he seemed to have guessed what Xu Zhao wanted to say in his heart. Xu Zhao asked him to sit down and talk with a cold face, ordered Ah Diao to retreat, took a sip of tea, and said: "Xiang'er, my father has been busy with family affairs recently, and he hasn't taken care of you, today our father and son will sit down to drink tea and chat for a while, how about it?" ”

Xu Xianglin frowned and replied: "Since the father speaks, the child obeys his fate." That's it, the father and son suddenly didn't know what to say, Xu Zhao didn't stare at him, but the afterglow was always on him, the tea was drunk slowly one sip after another, I don't know what he was thinking, Xu Xianglin didn't drink tea, he sat still, and seemed to be thinking about something.

"Xiang'er, after Yuanchen, you are not young, it's time to think about your future." Xu Zhao lowered his face and said earnestly. Xu Xianglin paused and said: "What my father said is that the child has no intention of becoming famous, I'm afraid that he wants to..." Xu Zhao interrupted him and said: "No, a man stands in the heavens and the earth, or like a mustard that no one cares about, or like a heroic eagle soaring into the sky, even if the time is not as good as he wants, so what?" First Qu Zisan was exiled, and then Confucius was driven into the Song Dynasty. Of course, Dad doesn't have to make you like them when he says these things, it's just that his father thinks that men should have ambitions in their hearts, so that they won't spend their lives in vain, not to mention it, even if it's for the Xu family, you shouldn't go on like this..."I don't know why, Xu Zhao's tone is much softer.

Xu Xianglin seemed to have a rebuttal, and after thinking for a moment, he got up and lowered his head and replied: "What the father said is not unreasonable, and the child has his own decision..." You have been out of the house with Feng Niangzi for a few days, and you have not stopped your father, if you have had enough, put your mind on reading... By the way, how did I hear that Feng Niangzi was imprisoned in the county government, why? Xu Zhaoyan tea stared at him at the moment, confused by the accident, and pretended to test whether he knew or not. Unexpectedly, Xu Xianglin had been holding back for a long time, and he was interrupted when he wanted to speak, he thought about this matter and could not delay it any longer, since his father asked, it was better to get straight to the point, open the skylight and say something bright.

Xu Xianglin raised his head and replied: "Dad, Ziying is pure and kind-natured, and he was framed in prison this time. Xu Zhao got up and walked in front of him, turned his back to him, and asked weakly: "Since you think that Feng Niangzi was framed, then who did it..."Xu Xianglin stalked his throat, closed his eyes and said: "Dad, all of this is your trap, right..."

Xu Xianglin opened his eyes, his bright eyes were full of heavy disappointment, and he said in a slightly questioning tone: "Why did Daddy treat her like this? Xu Zhao turned to face him, and suddenly became angry, and said, "She is a wild woman!" If you are obscure, sooner or later it will bring trouble to our Xu family! If it weren't for her, how could my son have been so fascinated that he didn't have the heart to read at all! As soon as Xu Zhao talked about Feng Ziying, he suddenly became angry, and his words were counting down her wrong.

Xu Zhao roared like this, and in an instant, Xu Xianglin was also angry, his head hurt as if he had been stabbed by an electric shock, his mind was confused, and he turned around and said, "Trouble? Have you caused less trouble to our Xu family! The Xu family's business is all thanks to you! You are the one who is obscure...", before the words were finished, Xu Zhao slapped Xu Xianglin's face hard, pointing at him and saying that his fingers couldn't help trembling.

The corners of Xu Xianglin's mouth were bleeding, and his already stinging head seemed to be a little numb, he squeezed his eyebrows and endured it, and said, "I... I don't have any intention of making a name for myself, I can... It's all you forcing me, and it has nothing to do with Ziying..."Xu Xianglin made another mistake because of his head disease, and his voice gradually weakened, and his eyes were dark and bright.

Xu Zhao waved his hand and wanted to hit him again, Xu Xianglin's legs and feet seemed to be unstable, swaying from side to side, his mind was chaotic, and his eyes seemed to be faintly hazy like a mist, Xu Zhao was dumbfounded when he saw this, and stepped forward to help him slowly sit on the chair. Sanjiu was going to go to the study to take care of Xu Xianglin, but when he passed by the main hall, he heard the quarrel between the two, so he hid outside the hall and eavesdropped, until Xu Zhao shouted Xiang'er vigorously, Sanjiu suddenly felt that something was not good, and rushed in with courage, Xu Xianglin held his head and screamed in pain.

"Sanjiu, help Xiang'er go back to the house!" Xu Zhao saw that Sanjiu came just in time, and hurriedly ordered. Sanjiu stepped forward to hug him, but Xu Xianglin waved his hand and refused to allow it, struggling alone for a long time, and said: "Aunt Wang's mother and daughter promised the child to testify in court tomorrow, if he confessed his father bluntly, Lord Chen will definitely not let go of the Xu family.

Xu Zhao sat on the chair with his buttocks, his eyes were panicked and frightened, although the Chen and Xu families had no deep hatred, but since the rise of the Qin family and the decline of the Xu family, Chen Tong had long wanted to take the opportunity to dump the broken shoes of the Xu family. The more Xu Zhao thought about it, the more he felt afraid, frowned, and held his forehead to regret himself.

Xu Xianglin slowly came to his senses, he struggled to stand up again, and said: "Dad, as long as you promise the child that you will not make things difficult for Ziying from now on, I have a plan to ensure that the Xu family is safe and sound." Xu Zhao stood up abruptly, stared at him for a long time, his stiff face gradually eased, and said sullenly: "Promise you for your father, from today on, I will not embarrass her." Although the voice was gentle and calm, there was a hint of reluctance.

Xu Xianglin leaned on the edge of the table and slowly sat back on the chair, breathed a deep sigh of relief, and said lightly: "If this matter is to be foolproof, the father still needs to promise the child one more thing." Xu Zhao frowned and asked, "What's the matter?" Xu Xianglin said: "After this incident, my father must return the acres of land to the Wang family, and he will not blame the past, nor can he take revenge with hatred, otherwise he may cause trouble again." Xu Zhao closed his eyes and shook his head, hiding the hatred in his eyes, and said steadily: "That's it, I promise you." In this way, Xu Xianglin had nothing to worry about, and told Xu Zhao in detail about the plan he had already calculated, Xu Zhao looked a little worried and suspicious when he heard it, and then thought that this matter was imminent, and there was no other good plan, so he agreed to him.

Xu Xianglin and Sanjiu immediately touched the dark sky in the middle of the night, and hurried to the Four Seas Inn, after some entrustment and pleading, Qinglian said: "The son values love and righteousness, and thinks about others everywhere, my mother and I will definitely help you with this." Wang Shi also said: "The old man can see that Gongzi is a broad-minded person, only... It's just that your father will really let us mother and daughter go? The most reassuring thing for the Wang family is that Xu Zhao will hold a grudge and retaliate in the future, and she has asked this several times. Xu Xianglin said: "My father was also slandered by the villain, so he did such a stupid thing, he has personally promised to return the land, and he is not to blame for the past, and the eldest mother can rest assured." Hearing him say this, Wang nodded in relief.

Back to Xu's house, Xu Xianglin still had a headache, Sanjiu bothered Liang Yong to come to the consultation, Liang Yong carefully examined, his expression was heavy, he sighed and shook his head: "Son's disease, I'm afraid that only Hua Tuo's reincarnation can cure it, but all body cold, damp and cold, anger and worry, boredom and anxiety, will cause attacks." Sanjiu hurriedly asked: "Liang Gong, there are a few people in this world whose medical skills can compare to you, if you can't be cured, then..." Isn't this disease going to haunt my son-in-law for the rest of his life..."Xu Xianglin interrupted: "Sanjiu, Liang Gong is not an immortal in the sky, how can he talk like this." Liang Yong got up and paced for a moment, and said: "The old man prescribes a prescription, if he commits it again in the future, he will definitely relieve the pain by dispensing medicine according to this prescription." If you are old and talented, you may be able to find a cure for this disease in the future. ”

.......

The next day, Chen Tong came to the Yamen early and was discussing with the guests how to convict, he expected that Xu Xianglin would not find out the reason, and he was just messing around. However, before the two made a decision, some officials hurriedly reported to the people above the court to shout grievances, and Chen Tonghu ordered to be promoted to the court to inquire about the case. Chen Tong sat down in the court case, saw Xu Xianglin standing below, and asked, "Xiang Lin, can the case of Feng Niangzi's murder of Wang's mother and daughter be investigated?" Xu Xianglin replied: "My lord, it has been found out that Ziying was framed, and the witness is the mother and daughter of the Wang family, who are waiting outside the hall." Chen Tong was full of surprise and ordered the officials to summon the witnesses to court.

Qinglian stepped into the hall with Wang's head bowed, Wang's face was panicked, and her heart was anxious, but Qinglian looked calm as if she was nothing. Chen Tong asked:

"Is the hall the mother and daughter of the Wang family?"

"Exactly."

"Look up."

The two of them slowly raised their heads. A few days ago, the officials sent to inspect saw Qinglian standing alive in the hall, they were dumbfounded, frightened, and one of the officials said in a lost voice: "Ghost, ghost..." Chen Tong scolded: "Where is there a ghost!" Run off at the mouth! Then he asked: "You two take a closer look to see if this girl is the daughter of the Wang family." "The two servants, you pushed me, stared over with wide eyes and trembling, at this time, Qinglian stared at them sideways, and the two of them hurriedly retreated, and said: "Big.. Adults, just.. It's Wang's daughter..."

Chen Tong thought about this girl's resurrection, and he was also stunned, half got up and squinted his eyes for a long time, and then straightened his clothes and hat, and asked: "Wang, since your daughter is not dead, why did you falsely report the case and fool the official before!" Chen Tongtang patted the wood, and Wang was so frightened that he knelt on the ground and hurriedly said: "Big.. My lord, it is indeed the old body who wronged Mrs. Feng, and I am blamed for being confused for a while..." Chen Tong looked over and over again, and said: "You said that your daughter was in a coma and poisoned because she accidentally ate azaleas, so where did this azalea come from?" Wang lowered his head and replied: "The little girl Qinglian loves flowers and plants, and they are planted inside and outside the door of the humble house..."

"What are you arguing about?"

"My lord, the little woman had an argument with her because her mother had unintentionally thrown away a pot of spider orchids, and she had a dispute with her without consulting with me, and she ate rhododendrons by mistake in anger, which caused her to fall unconscious, causing her mother to be frightened, and Feng Niangzi was implicated, and the little woman was really remorseful..."

Chen Tong threw the case aside, and said in disgust: "That's it, crying and crying in the lobby, what kind of system, since the daughter of the Wang family, Qinglian, has not lost her life, and the facts of the case have been clarified, then Feng Niangzi will be acquitted!" Then he ordered the officials to go to the prison and release them.
