Chapter 51: Turning the Tide of Danger
An Zhiyuan looked at Qiao An with bad intentions, and he was sure that he would make a fool of himself.
Qin Fuzi's lecture is aimed at Xiucai's examination, Qiao An, a layman who didn't even get into Xiucai, what kind of law does he know? If it weren't for Qiao Fuzi's connections in the academy, he would be qualified to enter this auditorium with a Qiao An?
Qiao An, who was named, was also a little at a loss, although he had also read a few books related to the law, and he was quite familiar with the criminal system of this dynasty. But he was stumped by a room full of talented exam questions, how would he answer?
The other party is not good, partial and detached, and not many people are willing to offend. Only Second Uncle Qiao humbly clenched his fists and begged for mercy: "Gongzi An answered by name, and there is no reason not to answer." But Qiao An hasn't even tried the water yet, so I'm afraid I won't be able to ......"
"Qiaofuzi, this is too modest." An Zhiyuan smiled and blocked back: "Qiao An is the number one talent in our county, and it is said that next year's Tongsheng test will win the championship." With such strength, can you still have an opinion on such a case? ”
As he spoke, his eyes were already glued to Qiao An, and his tone was full of contempt and sarcasm: "Is it a waste of fame, or is it a cowardice, and you don't have the courage to show your face in front of everyone?" ”
The boy next to him laughed, although the voice was not too loud, but the insult was too obvious.
Second Uncle Qiao clenched his fists and wanted to talk to Master Qin, but Qiao An grabbed him and shook his head gently.
An Zhiyuan is a powerful man, who is willing to offend him by ordinary people? is that Master Qin is upright, and he doesn't always make trouble for others.
He glanced at the nervous and annoyed star fruit, she stood quietly behind Master Qin, extremely eye-catching.
Qiao An took a step forward and arched his hand at everyone: "Qiao An is not talented, I dare not be the title of a talent, and I dare not rashly believe that I can win the first place in the Tongsheng test." As for Master Qin's question, Qiao has his own little foolish opinion, if he is not right, please list it as a correction. ”
An Zhiyuan smiled contemptuously at the corner of his lips and gestured at him for invitation.
Qiao An glanced at Master Qin, who was sitting at the top, and only after he gave him permission did he say, "The reason why stepmother is a mother is because of the relationship between father and father. Now that my father is dead, my mother's name is naturally written off. Therefore, the adopted son killed her by mistake, and it should not be regarded as a mother-killing.
The stepmother first murdered her adopted son and indirectly killed her husband. The adopted son avenges his father, and the wrongful killing of his stepmother is also in his temperament. Therefore, the sentence was lenient.
To sum up, Qiao thought that he should file a case for ordinary manslaughter, referring to the plot of his stepmother's viciousness first, and he was punished lightly. According to the law, he should be fined five hundred taels of silver and exiled for a thousand miles. ”
Many people nodded along with it, feeling justified. Although the person who wanted to find a thorn racked his brains, he couldn't find Joan's hard injury.
Master Qin glanced at Qiao An appreciatively, nodded and said, "That's how the case was closed in Dali Siqing back then!"
Even Dali Siqing has moved out, who dares to say that Qiao An answered badly?
A room full of students subconsciously applauded, and some even praised it directly.
An Zhiyuan, who was bent on seeing people's jokes, was so angry that his chest was stuffy, but he still praised Qiao An in two sentences: "Sure enough, he is the first talent, and his reputation is well deserved." ”
In his heart, he secretly remembered Qiao An's name, thinking that sooner or later he would find a way to make him ruthless.
There was also a little 'boy' in the corner who noticed Qiao An, he looked at Qiao An's handsome side face with a satisfied face, and laughed out loud.
"This Qiao An will definitely be better than Master Qin in the future."
The 'little guy' on the side slapped the 'childe' on the shoulder ambiguously, and teased: "Didn't you come to see Master Qin, you changed your mind so quickly?" ”
The little boy turned around and gave the maid a chestnut, and said with a tiger face: "Lian Ben Xiao...... Childe, do you dare to ridicule? I'm tired of living, isn't it? ”
The maid deliberately made a frightened expression, and after pleasing her own young lady, she said with a smile: "If the young lady wants to get close to this Qiao An, the slave can still find some way." ”
"A poor scholar, who rarely approaches him?"
Having said that, looking at the maid's eyes, they were shining: "Your path is very wild, and anyone can take it." ”
"I just have a cousin who studied medicine with Joan's mother, and the young lady also talked about the slave and maid a little more unbearable."
In the interval between their conversations, Master Qin asked several questions that were not easy to answer. An Zhiyuan saw Qiao An frowning, and he yelled anxiously to embarrass him, although Qiao An's answer could not surprise the audience again and again, but he was lucky to spend it safely, even if he didn't answer well, he wouldn't make a fool of himself.
An Zhiyuan was so angry that his lungs hurt, but he was helpless on the surface.
The 'little boy' looked at Qiao An's eyes with starry eyes: "He is worthy of being a talented man, he is really knowledgeable and extraordinary." ”
looked at An Zhiyuan again, and there was disdain between his eyebrows: "Relying on Lao Tzu's official hat to play majestic, something." ”
The maid also flattened her mouth: "He still wants to marry a young lady like that......"
The little boy glared, and the maid immediately shut up.
"Don't you have a cousin who is an apprentice in Qiao's house? Let's inquire and see how this Qiao An got into trouble with An Zhiyuan, a second ancestor. ”
The maid hurriedly nodded: "When I'm free, I'll go and ask Erya." She's certainly not going to hide anything from me. ”
Seeing Qiao An's sharp edge, which can be regarded as outstanding among all talents, the corners of star fruit's lips unconsciously smiled. There was a faint pride hidden in that look.
The little boy's eyes swept towards her inadvertently, and his brows furrowed: A maid dares to look at Qiao An blatantly, and still shows such a shameless look?
As the sun was about to go down, today's lecture finally came to an end.
Carambola showed Master Qin's legs again, and carefully considered the prescription for treating the old cold legs: "Master's old cold legs are more serious, take more hot water to scald your feet at night, and then press these acupuncture points more." ”
She pointed out the location of the acupuncture points to Master Qin and Xiao Tong, and when she was sure that Xiao Tong had memorized them, she gave him some Chen Ai Tiao: "After pressing it, take the moxa smoke again, and the effect will be obvious." ”
Qin Fuzi kept watching the star fruit busy, his expression was neither salty nor light, and he couldn't see what he was thinking.
When the order is over, it is time for the star fruit to leave. She looked up at the handouts on Master Qin's case, and after plucking up the courage for a long time, she still asked, "I see that there are still a few handouts left of the master's handouts, can you ask the master to give me one?" ”
Qin Fuzi, who was playing with moxa, looked up at the star fruit, and asked with his eyes: What do you want this for? Do you want to take the imperial examination?
"My brother is eleven years old this year, and he is also studying. If he had the privilege of being mentored by his Master, it would have been of great help to him. ”
Master Qin raised his chin, still with an elegant and gentle expression: "In this case, let's take a copy and go." ”
After the star fruit took the book and said goodbye, Master Qin asked again: "Aren't you coming tomorrow?" The lecture lasted for three days, and there were two more days to come, and I really lacked a subordinate here to help. ”
Being able to listen to the university's knowledge, star fruit is actually very happy. But when she thought of An Zhiyuan, his beaten face, and his disgusting threat, she had goosebumps all over her body, and she couldn't wait to hide away immediately.
"Master knows, I came here just to pickle vegetables, and now I ......"
Master Qin's good-looking sword eyebrows furrowed slightly, he didn't like businessmen, and he couldn't smell the smell of copper: "Since that's the case, I won't use it." ”
Seeing her cherish and put away the handouts closely, he unconsciously added: "If your brother is free, you can let him come over to help for two days." ”
Carambola was overjoyed and hurriedly agreed: "It's empty, it's empty." ”
Xiao Tong personally sent star fruit out, and on the way he asked her: "Why did you provoke An Gongzi?" He's a scourge, and you'll see him walking around the dot when you see him later. ”
Carambola tilted her head and smiled at him, didn't say anything about her relationship with An Zhiyuan, and said gratefully: "Thank you for helping me out of the siege today." ”
When she went out, Carambola looked around tremblingly, for fear that An Zhiyuan would lead someone to block her. When she was sure that there was no one outside the door, her hanging heart fell.
She went directly to the private school to find Yang Chunxiao, first, to give him the handouts, and secondly, to tell him about going to the auditorium to help.
She didn't expect to meet Joan again.
Star fruit jumped down from the ox cart, and Joan happened to be coming up to her. The two looked at each other, and they were a little surprised by each other.
This is Second Uncle Qiao's territory, and Carambola hesitated whether to step forward to say hello or turn around decisively to dodge.
Just when she hesitated, Qiao An had already greeted her: "Come to find Chunxiao?" ”
Carambola nodded: "Give him something, please help me call him." ”
A polite and detached tone, a light but dignified posture. Without the shyness of blushing and heartbeat, and without the sweet and happy little daughter's posture, such star fruit grabbed Qiao An's heart.
"Carambola ......"
He called her name, but finally shook his head and sighed, "I'll call Chunxiao." ”
After taking two steps, she turned back unwillingly, looked into the eyes of star fruit and asked her, "What you said to Qiao Xiu that day, is it serious?" ”
Star fruit was a little confused, what did she say to Qiao Xiu one day? They said so many things, which one was true?
"Two years!"
Carambola suddenly understood, and he asked her if she was really willing to wait for her for two years. Star fruit nodded seriously: "Seriously!" ”
Qiao An's pursed lips curled, and her eyes shone three points brighter: "I know!" ”
The star fruit, which was still stuffy in her chest before, also curled the corners of her lips, and her heart was ironed and bright.
Yang Chunxiao came out quickly, and as soon as he saw the star fruit, he made a straight face: "You saw Second Brother Qiao again?" ”
Carambola took out a handout and stuffed it into his hand, and hit his injured leg with his eyes: "The leg is fine, is there a scar?" ”
He was not lightly injured at the time, if it wasn't for Qiao An's careful care and help buy and change the medicine, how could he get better so quickly? Thinking of the scene where Qiao An helped him change his dressing, make food, and pour water for washing his feet, Yang Chunxiao frowned in confusion.
Yang Chunxiao didn't speak, and the star fruit knew what was going on when she looked at his face. She didn't ask much, and only told Master Qin about letting him do it: "Since there is nothing wrong with his legs and feet, let's go over and listen to Master Qin's lectures, and remember not to let people know about your relationship with me and Qiao An." ”
As soon as Yang Chunxiao appeared with Master Qin the next day, the corners of An Zhiyuan's lips hooked: Master Qin is really good enough, so let Lao Tzu make way. Star fruit, let's have a good time from today......
At the same time, yesterday, the maid also leaned on her own lady's ear and chewed her tongue: "Er Ya knows that star fruit very well, she is a broken family, and she is trying to pester Qiao An in order to run for a good life." ”
