Yu Tang listened, his heart beat like a drum, and said, "What do you want to say?" ”

Wei Xiaochuan said: "Their family took in the homeless, can we sue them?" ”

The imperial court had rules that did not allow the indiscriminate admission of displaced people.

Because these displaced people have no household registration and no land, it is easy for them to take risks and do things that harm others in order to have food and clothing. Usually, when such a thing happens, either the yamen will come forward to return to their hometown, or they will be attached to the local registration and reward them for clearing the wasteland and settling down.

If what Wei Xiaochuan said is true, it would be a little wrong to take in homeless people like the Li family.

In her previous life, she seemed to have heard that the Li family had such a grange, but she didn't pay attention to it at the time. Moreover, the reason why she had an impression of this grange was because later the Li family felt that those homeless people were not easy to control, and they wanted to drive those homeless people out of the grange.

The Lin family was in a bad mood for several days, and he was angry at home because of this, saying that he couldn't be too merciful to be a man, and the Li family's good deeds had become bad things, and they would never take in these homeless people in the future.

At that time, she also felt that those homeless people did not know how to be grateful...... But now, I'm afraid the situation is not as she knew in her previous life.

Maybe Wei Xiaochuan hit the right one, and inadvertently really showed important clues.

Yu Tang said: "After coming back from your house, I thought about it for a long time, and I felt that if the Li family did something bad, where did they find the people?" After all, it is a human life, and if they get evidence and sue the government, their family will also suffer a lawsuit. If you want to have no trouble, you can either be under the hands of your own henchmen, or hired outside. The steward of the Li family, I have already checked, they are all alive in the city, and no one was absent that night. Those hired from outside, who dare to do this, must be helpers. I also went to ask, the famous helpers in Lin'an City are in Lin'an City these days, and no one runs away......"

Wei Xiaochuan's eyes lit up when he heard this, and he said, "So, the murderer who killed my second brother may be the homeless man from that grange?" ”

Yu Tang said softly.

Wei Xiaochuan hurriedly said: "Then I'll take a leave of absence, and I'll go to that grange tomorrow." ”

"No way!" Yu Tang said, "If you are suspected, with your small body, you can't run." We can't afford to be complacent now. ”

"Okay!" Wei Xiaochuan said dejectedly, "I heard my cousin say that the people in the village are all dressed very well and very good, but they don't do much work in the fields." There's definitely something strange about that. You should also be careful not to be killed by others. Didn't you say that we can't be rash? ”

The Li family hired thugs to kidnap her, ruining her reputation, what is the difference between killing people and killing people?

Yu Tang said: "You don't have to worry, I won't go by myself, I'll ask someone to help." ”

Wei Xiaochuan thought about it and thought it was okay, he said, "Then I'll go first." On the first day I went to the county school, the teachers called the names. I can't be late, do you have any news, remember to have someone send me a letter. ”

Yu Tang didn't want to keep him, so he hurriedly said: "You can take my sedan chair over!" I'll pay the bills. ”

Wei Xiaochuan refused, and said, "I'll go over from the path, very soon." You leave me alone. It's a pity that the people in our grange didn't see the two strangers clearly, otherwise I would have taken someone to recognize them. ”

Yu Tang breathed a sigh of relief and said, "It's good that the people in your grange didn't see clearly what those two people looked like, and if you directly brought people over, even if they recognized them, they had a way to pass the buck." This matter can't be so simple and straightforward, you have to outwit it. Go to school, I'll take care of it. ”

Wei Xiaochuan just wanted to complain, but when he heard the words, he hung his head and left.

Yu Tang came home and thought about it all night, and when it was almost dawn, she finally made up her mind and went to find Yu Wen.

Yu Wen is sorting out all the things that have been counted at home with the Chen family, preparing to send them to Yu Bo's house, and first handling Yu Yuan's marriage beautifully.

Yu Tang chatted with his parents for a few words and glanced at his father.

Yu Wen understood and said to Chen: "I remember that a friend came from Meizhou the year before last and brought us a Shu brocade, you can find that one and send it to the eldest brother!" ”

The cloth is too hard, it is uncomfortable to wear clothes, but the trim is very beautiful, Chen was originally going to leave it to Yu Tang, at this time hearing Yu Wen say this, she couldn't help but hesitate for a moment, thinking that although the Shu brocade is rare, it is not impossible to buy, but the price is more expensive, fortunately, the edging does not need so much, and if it is given to Yu Yuan, it will be given to Yu Yuan, she answered and went to the warehouse.

Yu Wen found something to do for Chen, so he put his mind at ease and went to the study with Yu Tang.

Yu Tang didn't know that the Shu brocade that originally belonged to him was gone.

She said to Yu Wen: "When I came back yesterday, I met the fifth son of the Wei family, and he told me that when he went to give his grandfather a gift during the Mid-Autumn Festival, there was a grange not far from his grandfather's grange that belonged to the Li family, and he took in a lot of homeless people......"

"There's such a thing!" Yu Wen was shocked and said angrily, "If those homeless people riot, Lin'an City will die, don't the Li family know?" No, I have to talk to Governor Tang about this. ”

Yu Tang grabbed his father and said, "Daddy, you can't just go to Governor Tang's mansion. ”

Yu Wen was puzzled.

Yu Tang said: "Think about it, then the Li family is also the home of the eunuchs, and the harm of the displaced people is not known to other people's families, how can their families not know?" They can hire thugs to kidnap me, and they can send the outcasts into their homes to make trouble. I mean, you might as well discuss with the prefect of Tang first, and let him investigate in the name of the official office, and say that someone has reported that the grange has taken in a person who has taken in the widow. If the Li family just did good deeds and took in those people, it would be fine. If something is wrong, Governor Tang naturally knows what to do. ”

Yu Wen thought about it and felt that this idea was better than going directly to Tang Zhifu.

You must know that there are people under his rule who take in displaced people, but he doesn't know, if nothing happens, his achievements in the past three years will be over, and not being removed from office will affect his promotion. What's more, the Yu family and the Li family are already on the same page, even if the Li family knows that he reported it? Could it be that if he doesn't report the Li family, the Li family will let the Yu family go?

Yu Wen said: "I know what to say, you go and accompany your mother!" Now that the weather is getting colder and colder, I heard that Imperial Doctor Yang will come to give the eldest lady of the Pei family a pulse of peace in a few days, and I want to invite him to come over to take a look at your mother, you keep an eye on your mother, don't let your mother get a cold - if you get cold, you have to wait until you are well before prescribing tonics, and Imperial Doctor Yang may not be able to wait until that time. ”

Since taking Yang Douxing's medicine, Chen has never been sick, Yu Wen has great confidence in Yang Douxing's medical skills, and feels that as long as he can always invite Yang Douxing to see the disease, Chen's body will always be fine.

Yu Tang should be good.

Yu Wen went to the Yamen.

Yu Tang accompanied Chen to sort out all the things to be sent to his uncle's house, and when Yu Wen came back, he went to his uncle's house together.

On the way, Yu Tang asked his father: "What did Governor Tang say?" ”

Yu Wen said: "Governor Tang thought that our family wanted to take revenge on the Li family, although I promised to investigate, but I didn't look very positive. I had an idea, and when I left, I said that I was going to Pei's house to ask Imperial Doctor Yang to help see a doctor, and he was immediately different. Speaking of this, he sighed and said, "I owe the Pei family a favor again, and I don't know when I will be able to pay it off." ”

The main thing is that there is still no way to pay it back.

Yu Tang couldn't think of what Pei Yan was missing.

Especially Pei Yan has always felt that she has a bad heart and has ulterior motives for doing everything, and she is very disdainful.

Thinking of this, Yu Tang sighed a little depressedly.

Forget it, the great kindness of the Pei family can only be repaid in the next life.

If she could have an afterlife?

After a few words, they had arrived at Yu Bo's house, and the matter stopped.

Yu Tang asked Ah Tao to give Ah Liu, who sold pears in Xiaomeixi, some broken silver, and let him keep an eye on the Li family.

Within a few days, there were rumors in Lin'an City, saying that the Li family took in a lot of homeless people because of their kindness, but they were known by the Tang Governor's Mansion and sent someone to check whether those homeless people were traitors.

The Li family was shocked and regretted very much that they had taken these people in for a while. The eldest son of the Li family personally came forward to deal with the matter, not only appeasing the families of the surrounding granges, but also taking the silver out to bury the two officials and giving them a large amount of pensions.

Yu Tang sneered.

She didn't believe that her trick to lure the snake out of the hole would fail.

It's just that if those two people appeared, how could she get them.

Yu Tang pondered who to ask for help.

If only she could have a few more brothers!

She sighed there that Tang Zhifu suddenly came to visit Yuwen.

Yu Tang asked Shuangtao to eavesdrop on two sentences by serving tea to Tang Zhifu.

Shuang Tao came to tell her: "Governor Tang is here to apologize to our master." Speaking of the last incident, the eldest prince of the Li family came to ask him in person, but he couldn't hide it and told the eldest prince of the Li family what happened. Fortunately, the eldest son of the Li family is a sensible person, and he said that he couldn't live with our master. He also said that when the matter calmed down, he would personally come to the door to apologize, and asked the master not to mention this matter when he went to Pei's house. After speaking, she opened her eyes and asked Yu Tang curiously, "Miss, what's wrong?" Why did Governor Tang come to apologize to our lord in person? ”

"Don't worry about the master's business." Yu Tang perfunctorily beat Shuang Tao, but he despised Tang Zhifu very much in his heart.

Where did he come to apologize to her father, obviously to tell her father, the Li family knew that the person who reported it was her father, and he came to report to her father for the sake of the Pei family. also told her father that Li Duan had already intervened in this matter, and if there was any gap between the Yu and Li families, it was none of his business.

It's no wonder that Tang Zhifu was transferred away after being a parent official in Lin'an for nine years, just this cowardly appearance of calming things, currying favor on both sides, and not daring to take responsibility, only if you can be a big official!

Yu Wen was already ready to tear his face with the Li family, so naturally he didn't care about the words of the Tang Governor's Mansion, he warmly entertained the Tang Governor's Mansion, talked about poetry and songs with the Tang Governor's Mansion, and made an appointment to climb the height to appreciate the chrysanthemums during the Double Ninth Festival, and did not mention the contradiction with the Li family.

Governor Tang originally made this trip for the sake of the Pei family, if the Pei family continued to shelter the Yu family, even if the Li family knew, they wouldn't be able to do anything. If the Pei family doesn't care, and the Yu family hits the stone with an egg, he can only sigh at most.

He just plucked himself out, and as for the rest, he didn't want to offend people, and he couldn't take care of it.
