Chapter 41 Quid pro quo
Although the behind-the-scenes inspirer has no whereabouts, Ye Yun'er is still very relaxed and happy in the end that she has regained her innocence for herself.
Those dozen people, because they committed the crime of false accusation, Mo Chengsen sentenced each of them to compensate the shopkeeper Yan with one tael of silver, and then to Ye Yun'er with one tael, until they stomped their feet again and again, and their intestines were green with regret.
After everyone dispersed, Mo Chengsen immediately stood up from the high platform and walked to the screen.
Seeing a man dressed in a crescent-colored silver thread robe and holding a feather fan coming out from behind the screen, he immediately bowed respectfully, "Little Mu Daren, do you think that the judgment of the case is still fair?" ”
On Mu Yihan's elegant and handsome face, the corners of his thin mouth hooked his lips and sneered, "Master Mo is willing to take over this case because of me, I want to ask Master Mo, who are you because you refused to take on this case in the first place?" ”
The voice was indifferent, but it was so loud that Mo Chengsen couldn't help but wipe the cold sweat oozing from his forehead.
He said hesitantly: "What did you say, Lord Mu, the humble position is just because you are busy with official business and have no time to pay attention to this little thing...... However, Xiao Mu Da, you can rest assured, after being humiliated, you will do your best to serve the people, regardless of the importance and treat them equally! ”
Mu Yihan saw that he refused to say, so he stopped asking.
"I hope that Lord Mo, you can arrest the mastermind behind the scenes as soon as possible." He said a few words lightly and walked away.
Leaving Mo Chengsen in place, still drenched in cold sweat.
Thinking of the shopkeeper Li, the owner of Yuqiong Restaurant, who had come to discuss this matter with him earlier, he was in a dilemma.
On the one hand, he is the Lord Qincha sent by the emperor, and on the other hand, he is an old friend who has given him a lot of benefits, he really doesn't know which side to help?
Ye Yun'er and Ye Changchuan left the county government and came to the lively street, ready to take the carriage back by the way.
Ye Yun'er saw that there were pastries and preserves on the side of the road, so she spent more than a dozen dollars to buy some, and was ready to go back to be a snack for the family.
As they waited, a delicate carriage stopped beside them.
Just when she was surprised, Ye Yun'er saw that the curtain was lifted, revealing a handsome face, with Ruoqiu Ju blooming on her face, and smiling extremely brightly, "Little Mu, why are you here?" ”
Mu Yihan smiled softly, "I happened to be passing by, and when I saw you here, I wonder if you are going back to the village?" ”
Ye Yun'er nodded.
Mu Yihan pretended to be clear, "Then get in the car, we just happened to be on the way." ”
Ye Changchuan saw that the carriage was luxurious, and said embarrassedly: "Little Mu, you have a noble status, but we are just ordinary people, and the status is very different, how dare we take your car?" My little girl and I should wait. ”
Although Ye Yun'er had no idea about her status level, she listened to her parents very much, so she stood still.
Mu Yihan said disapprerovingly: "You once took me in, I have already regarded you as a family, why should I be so polite?" Besides, Yun'er and I are good friends, and we should share difficulties and blessings, if you don't even dare to sit in my car, then don't you deliberately break up with me? ”
Seeing that Mu Yihan didn't treat them as outsiders at all, Ye Changchuan finally eliminated his worries and got into the car with Ye Yun'er.
Along the way, Ye Yun'er vividly depicted what happened in the court to Mu Yihan.
Mu Yihan just listened silently with a smile, and when he heard the highlights, he struck the feather fan in his hand, obviously very surprised.
"Yun'er, your ability to defend is even better than those lawyers."
Unconsciously, Mu Yihan even gave up the suffix "girl" and directly called "Yun'er".
Ye Yun'er didn't think there was anything wrong with this, and smiled smugly, "Of course, but my ability is more than that." ”
Although Ye Yun'er was quite a bit of a princess selling melons and boasting about herself, in Mu Yihan's eyes, she felt that she was very cute and cute, and couldn't help laughing.
After talking and laughing all the way, before I knew it, I was in town.
But Mu Yihan didn't stop, and directly called the coachman to drive to the village to send Ye Changchuan's father and daughter back.
After getting off the car, Ye Changchuan and the others insisted on inviting Mu Yihan home as a guest, Mu Yihan had to get out of the car, had dinner at Ye Yuner's house, and didn't go back until late.
This incident made Ye Shuhua know, and he was so angry that he gritted his teeth, and his lungs were about to explode.
Although under the protection of Yuqiong Restaurant, she successfully found a scapegoat and did not expose her, but she still couldn't swallow this breath.
Seeing that Ye Yun'er's business had returned to normal supply, and it was smooth sailing again, and the spring breeze was proud, she only felt that she had spent a lot of money in vain, losing her wife and losing her soldiers!
What's even more infuriating is that those people were fined money, but they came to her to ask for it.
A family has two taels of silver, and more than a dozen families have to repay more than 20 taels!
Ye Shuhua couldn't come up with so much money, so they threatened to confess to her and ruin her reputation.
Ye Shuhua was frightened, so she had to promise them for the time being, only saying that she would prepare the money and send it to them in two or three days.
After reassuring her for a while, they refused to let her go, and went home and waited.
Ye Shuhua was at a loss, and he didn't know how to get through this hurdle.
Suddenly, she thought of Yuqiong Restaurant.
Since Yuqiong Restaurant took the initiative to ally with her, then they are grasshoppers on the same boat, and if she is in trouble, they must also come to help.
Thinking like this, Ye Shuhua hurried to Yuqiong Restaurant.
When Shopkeeper Li saw her and heard that she wanted to help her repay the money, he did not refuse directly, but looked at her mockingly.
"Why are you asking me to help you pay it back?"
Ye Shuhua held his head high, looking like a dead pig was not afraid of boiling water, and said confidently: "If I am exposed by them, you will also be held accountable for covering up my crimes!" When the time comes, not only will you be fined more and your reputation will be ruined, but I'm afraid this business will become even more difficult, right? ”
Ye Shuhua's words did have some truth, but they did not make Shopkeeper Li feel any fear at all.
He has a close relationship with the county magistrate, she thinks it is so easy to expose him?
He was about to sneer at each other, when Ma Laosi, who was sharp-mouthed and monkey-cheeked, thought of something, and whispered a few words in his ear.
Shopkeeper Li's gaze was gloomy for a moment, and a touch of shrewdness crossed it.
He raised his eyes and looked at Ye Shuhua with interest, and suddenly felt that she still had a trace of use.
"I promise to give you this compensation, but you must also promise me one condition."
