Bai Hongyan raised his head, moved slightly, protected in front of Song Hongyue, stared at Jin Shutian, and then looked at Jin Shuliang, and said in his heart: "I have seen these two people, they are the two ridiculous people who robbed the silk painting that day, it turns out that they are the two sons of the Jin family!" ”

But seeing Song Hongyue biting her lip, her eyebrows furrowed, she leaned towards Bai Hongyan and said, "What are you doing here?" ”

The two sons of the Shicai Jin family inspected the salt households together, and had just returned to the city, when they overheard someone talking on Pingkang Street, saying that the prince of Baifu had opened a calligraphy and painting shop and volunteered to help people write letters.

The villagers spontaneously organized themselves and collectively asked Bai Gongzi to write a petition for all the people, wanting to submit it to the emperor to complain about the various acts of the salt merchants and the horse gang in oppressing the fish and meat people.

Jin Shutian was shocked when he heard this, thinking that if it was a personal situation, the government would not pay attention to it, but if it was a petition from all the people, it would inevitably alarm the saints.

He knew very well that this matter was not trivial, and now he must disperse the pioneers of the people who had gathered and then think of ways to break them one by one.

He hurriedly ordered someone to mobilize the officials of the county government, and ordered someone to report to the Song Mansion, so he hurriedly came here with the officials.

At this moment, Jin Shutian saw Bai Hongyan and Song Hongyue holding hands, and his teeth itched with hatred, but in a blink of an eye, he saw his eldest brother's obsession with Song Hongyue, and thought in his heart that this scholar could make his eldest brother unable to succeed.

I saw that Bai Hongyan's face did not change, and he said: "Under Bai Hongyan." Is Your Excellency a member of the Yamen or an official of the imperial court? ”

Jin Shutian was stunned for a moment, returned the salute, and said with a smile: "No, my surname is Jin, and I do business here." ”

Bai Hongyan said: "Since Your Excellency is a businessman, you are a common man. May I ask if these military masters in front of the door are from the government? How can Your Excellency mobilize people from the official family? And what royal law did the people who came to me violate? ”

Jin Shutian was stunned for a moment, and Bai Hongyan's three questions in a row made him speechless.

If he replied that these people were from the government, how could he, a businessman, have the right to transfer people from the government? If the answer is no, then these people are people who are pretending to be yamen, and according to the laws of the dynasty, they have committed serious crimes. If you ask what crime those people committed just now, there is no way to talk about it, if they did not steal, second, they did not rob, and third, they did not use force.

He paused and said, "I'm just passing through here." He looked Bai Hongyan up and down, and met his eyes, but saw that his eyes were bright, and under the sun, it seemed to shine with a sharp luster like a sharp sword out of the sheath.

Jin Shutian couldn't help but take a step back, looking at him with a calm expression.

When a man sees a man, he will see it in his bones at a glance. He could see that although this person was a weak scholar, he was an iron-clad man.

I only heard Bai Hongyan say: "Since Gongzi is a distinguished guest who comes to my shop, please feel free to visit." These military masters in front of the door disturbed the business of the small shop, so I went out to reason with them. ”

Jin Shutian arched his hand and smiled: "Wait, Bai Gongzi has really seen the world, he has understood, he has understood, let me go down and talk to the military master outside." ”

He glanced at Song Hongyue slightly, and saw that her eyes were on Bai Hongyan from beginning to end, as if she cared about him very much, and seemed to have a hint of resentment against him, suddenly her mind changed, and she smiled: "Miss Song, do you know what Bai Gongzi is going to do when he gathers the people?" ”

As soon as these words came out, Song Hongyue's face sank, and the faint sunlight shone on her pale face, which was cold and cold, and the sunlight seemed to have turned into moonlight. She slowly broke away from Bai Hongyan's hand, lowered her head and didn't say a word.

At this time, Jin Shuliang was looking at Song Hongyue without blinking, not caring about everything around him.

He looked at the white and red geese, and then at Song Hongyue, a fluttering white cloth, a pink beauty, really a pair made in heaven.

He had already guessed that the scholar in front of him was Song Hongyue's lover, and he couldn't help but stare at him, seeing that this person had a handsome face, a majestic demeanor, and an awe-inspiring arrogance between his eyebrows.

Jin Shuliang saw it at a glance, and immediately overturned the vinegar vat in his heart. He struck three times with both hands and shouted, "Take this kid down." ”

The official in front of the door gave an order, and four people immediately rushed in, surrounded Bai Hongyan, and trapped him firmly with ropes.

Bai Hongyan was stunned and said angrily: "What crime did I commit? ”

Jin Shuliang shouted: "You ...... You are gathering people to make trouble! ”

Song Hongyue woke up suddenly and shouted, "Slow! Why do you kidnap people? She glared at Jin Shuliang angrily and shouted, "You quickly order them to release Yanlang!" ”

Seeing this, Jin Shutian couldn't help muttering in his heart, although he hated Bai Hongyan, but he knew that this person was by no means an ordinary person, the old man of Baifu was once the imperial history of the patrol appointed by the saint, he was well versed in officialdom and the laws of the dynasty, and there were many old friends in the court.

He glanced at Jin Shuliang, turned his head to look at Song Hongyue and said, "Since Miss has spoken, the eldest brother should sell Miss a face." Let go of Bai Gongzi. ”

Jin Shuliang looked at Song Hongyue and saw that although she had a look of disgust, she was amazed by this June day where a hundred flowers were blooming. He responded with a smile: "Yes, yes, Miss said to release people, and I will release them." ”

A few officials sent you to look at me, I look at you, they listened to these two boys, and they were not happy in their hearts, so they immediately loosened their ties for Bai Hongyan.

Song Hongyue breathed a sigh of relief, held Yan Lang's hand and said, "Yan Lang, are you okay?" ”

Bai Hongyan shook his head slightly, turned his back to the two of them and said softly to her, "You get out of here quickly." ”

Suddenly, Bai Hongyan's eyes stared out of the hall in a daze, with a very strange look on his face, as if he was in great distress.

Suddenly, there was a hurried sound of horses' hooves outside the door, followed by another shout.

Song Hongyue followed the prestige, and couldn't help but be stunned, only to see a group of people rushing out outside, with long knives and hard crossbows, all of them were fierce and vicious, it was her father's horse gang.

Jin Shutian glanced at the group of people and smiled slightly: "Big brother, a few military masters, let's withdraw." ”

Jin Shuliang was puzzled, pointed to Bai Hongyan and said, "Just let this kid go?" ”

I saw that this group of horses came a few feet away, and when the leader of the team raised his hand, the whole team stopped moving.

Song Hongyue saw this group of menacing people, and she was secretly shocked: "What are they going to do?" ”

The leader of the team swept around the horse, and immediately shouted to the people in all directions: "Who is going to write a complaint against our boss?" ”

When Jin Shutian heard this, his heart moved, and he ran forward and shouted: "This eldest brother, it is this scholar who gathers the people and wants to write a complaint to sue Master Song." As he spoke, he turned around and pointed at Bai Hongyan.

When the leader heard this, his eyebrows were raised, he turned over and dismounted, drew a leather whip from his horse, and cursed loudly, "Grandma's!" Then he walked towards Bai Hongyan angrily.
