Chapter 157: Introduction
Soon there was a long queue in front of the Gongyuan, and the Zhai family was worried that they were too late, so they hurriedly interrupted everyone and pushed Xie Jingze and the firewood? Chen went in, and when he couldn't see their backs, his eyes were red again, and he got into the car without saying a word.
There are many mothers like Zhai in front of this door.
Xie Jingyi got into the carriage, half-opened the curtain and looked out, the willow trees on the side of the road had already sprouted slightly, the spring in the north was slightly visible, and the sky was gradually getting warmer.
It will soon be clear whether Xie Baolin's green seedling inspection is effective.
At that time, they will be like this spring in Tokyo, and they will only get better and better, and they will not look back.
Xie Jingyi thought about it, knocked on the wall of the carriage, and the coachman outside the carriage sighed and pulled the reins.
"A-Niang, today I'm going to Tianbufang to check the accounts, and go back for dinner."
Zhai nodded, if she changed the daughter next to her, she would never allow her to run around alone, for fear of being picked on by her husband's family in the future. But this is Sannan, her fiancΓ© Jun said that Sannan will let her do whatever she wants.
Zhai Shi listened to the footsteps of Xie Jingyi jumping out of the carriage, and his heart chuckled.
The Chai family has a prominent family background, and now Chai? If Chen is in high school, then he is really the first noble son-in-law in the capital, can such a person really keep it?
Firewood? Chen is a good boy, she hopes that he can be better, but as a mother's selfishness, she hopes that he will at least not be so radiant, so that at least Jingyi ......
Zhai thought about it, patted his thigh in shame, and made a gesture of Amitabha, "Bodhisattva of great mercy and compassion, bless my son and Yitian all high school!" β
She can only make her daughter shine more, how can she expect the sun in the sky not to shine!
Xie Jingyi watched the carriage go away, turned around and went to Tianbu Fang.
She has a great role in that clothing workshop, so she has not revealed to Zhai that it is her industry for the time being. It's also strange to say, since she entered the capital, the Zhai family didn't care about the expenses in her hands, including what fields and shops she bought.
Even the mansion near Guozijian happily took out Xie Baolin's money, and he didn't ask Xie Jingyi for a single big word.
Of course, Xie Baolin will not have the money to drink wine in the next ten years, this kind of thing, except for Xie Jingze's sympathy for the death of the rabbit and the fox, no one cares about the women in the second room of the Xie family.
At the end of the east corridor on the second floor of Tianbu Fang, there is an elegant room, which is a rule developed when I was in Hangzhou. Chen and Xie Jingyi were talking, and there would be no one on the left and right.
When Xie Jingyi entered the door, Honeysuckle was kneeling inside and boiling tea.
Xie Jingyi took off the hood and threw it on the shirt support on the side, "Has Li Xing seen it?" β
"I've seen it. The family didn't believe her, so they looked for four more Langzhong, three of them were the same as what Li Langzhong said, the different one was revealed to be a quack. β
Xie Jingyi nodded, this matter did not exceed her expectations.
"When will they go to Kaifeng Mansion to complain?"
Honeysuckle scooped a bowl of tea for Xie Jingyi and gently rested it in front of her, "At noon today, someone must beat the drum and voice the grievances." β
β¦β¦
"Bang bang bang", the whole capital was awakened by the three loud drums that shook the deafening.
Li Man, the official of Kaifeng Mansion, rubbed his ears, rushed out at the speed of a 100-meter sprint, grabbed the drumstick, and took a look, only to see that the person who beat the drum was a white-haired old woman, she was wearing a long gown embroidered with gold silk thread, mink hair around her neck, gold and silver on her head, very rich, wearing a string of Buddhist beads on her wrist, crystal clear, not ordinary at first glance.
This is a rich man who can't be offended, Li Man thought, and his tone couldn't help but soften a little, "Old lady, what grievances do you have, just hand over the complaint, why bother beating the drum and singing the grievances?" Today is the first day of the Spring Festival, and if you disturb the movers with the sound of the drums and provoke the champion to fall off the list, it will be a sin. β
The old woman clasped her hands together and said lightly, "Since you are the champion, how can you fall off the list?" Since he has fallen off the list, how can he be called a champion? β
Li Man was speechless for a while, and hurriedly prevaricated, "Who is the old lady's surname, what grievances do you have, and who are you complaining about?" I am asking as usual, and you can rest assured that at the feet of the Son of Heaven, there is no real case that Kaifeng Mansion will not accept. No one has beaten this drum for many years, and it has fallen to ashes. Listen to my advice, don't beat this drum again. β
"The old woman's husband's family name is Qi, and the complaint is my daughter-in-law Zhang, accusing her of killing my son first, and then killing my grandson, harming my Qi family's big house, and cutting off my children and grandchildren!"
Li Man has been a servant in Kaifeng Mansion for many years, and he asked himself that there are almost no nobles in this capital that he does not recognize.
This surnamed Qi, after thinking about it, didn't come up with any powerful characters.
surnamed Zhang, there are several.
"Which Qi family, which Zhang family?"
Old Madam Qi shook her head and said mockingly: "My husband was also honored as a marquis in his early years, but the heirs in the family are not prosperous and have declined. What's the matter, did Kaifeng Mansion decide the case by comparing the identities of the victim and the murderer? Those with high status are naturally innocent, and those who are broken are sinners? β
When Li Man heard this, he almost sweated, this older generation, which one is not an old fox who is used to seeing the wind and clouds and has become a spirit.
"It's just a routine inquiry, you're too worried." Li Man said, looked around, and led Old Madam Qi in.
β¦β¦
Xie Jingyi drank the last drop of tea in the tea bowl, wiped his mouth with a handkerchief unhurriedly, and then shook his legs, sitting for too long, a little numb.
"Let's go, let's see the excitement."
Li Man has a sentence at least that does not deceive people, this Kaifeng Mansion is at the foot of the Son of Heaven, since the three kings became emperors, no matter which dynasty or generation, the Great Chen State attaches great importance to the law. There are "The Three Kings Clearing Grievances", "The Three Kings Examining the Law", and "The Three Kings Talk About Fairness and Justice" as the foundation, and powerful officials and puppets abound.
To say an exaggeration, there are more monks and less meat, and everyone is eager to go into battle to judge the case, as long as there is a case, especially this kind of murder case, it will be broken, why beat the drum?
It's also a shame that this drum is a good drum, otherwise it would be a joke if this old lady Qi was beaten with a mallet today.
Xie Jingyi stood quietly in the crowd, holding a bag of dried fruits in his hand, looking no different from the ordinary people watching the excitement in front of him.
An enthusiastic aunt also used a handful of home-fried broad beans to exchange Xie Jingyi for a few pieces of dried almonds, composing a friendship.
The official family is young, and now there is no prince born, and the position of Kaifeng Mansion Yin naturally cannot be given to the prince according to the custom. Today's Kaifeng Mansion Yin's surname is Huang, and the people call him Huang Qingtian, looking at the toad-like faces of the surrounding officials, he knows that this guy is absolutely seeking personal gain and snatched today's important case.
Huang Qingtian mentioned the startled wood and knocked on the table with a bang, "Who is in the hall?" Get your name in! β
"Mighty ......"
