107 Afraid

"Pass it in!"

"Li Xiu'an, a grass man, has seen adults."

"The famous girl Li Xinran has seen an adult."

The two brothers and sisters respectfully bowed to the lord above.

"Get up and talk!"

"Thank you, sir!" After the two finished talking, they stood respectfully with their hands down, feeling a little neither humble nor arrogant.

Seeing these two children, Master Zhang advanced and retreated to a certain extent, much stronger than the two crying people of the Wang family, I heard that they were studying in a school, compared with the two, he had a good impression of these two children inexplicably, pointed to the stool on the side and said, "Don't be afraid, I just asked you to come over to ask about something, speaking of which, I was able to find these clues this time, thanks to you." ”

The two of them obediently sat down on the side.

Li Xinran quietly raised his eyes at this time, glanced upward, and quickly lowered his head without squinting.

The one sitting on the main seat should be the rumored adult from the capital, Li Xinran estimated that the one sitting next to him should be an official here in Xitang, and there was a servant and bodyguard standing behind the Beijing official, she could understand, but what was the matter with a child sitting on the other side?

Could it be that he came down to run an errand and took his son with him?

The first Master Zhang, but at the moment when Li Xinran raised his head, a sense of familiarity inexplicably appeared in his heart, but he couldn't remember when and where he had seen this child, so he had to do a routine and ask about the case.

Li Xinran and Li Xiu'an told in detail the process of meeting robbers on the road that day, and the two of them complemented each other, almost nothing was too detailed, and someone next to them wrote hard to record the process they said.

After hearing this, Lord Zhang frowned, and said to the person who headed down, "With such well-trained and tacit cooperation, it seems that there is no doubt that it is that group." ”

The local official nodded in agreement.

Realizing that there were still Li Xinran and Li Xiu'an in the house, Zhang Dasheng swallowed the words that were about to be spoken, turned his head and said to the two brothers and sisters, "You two are doing very well, we still have important things to discuss, so we won't leave you to sit for a long time." ”

Li Xinran and Li Xiu'an, this is to get up and say goodbye immediately.

Master Zhang nodded, and said to the people around him, "Let Xing Zhutou and them send these two children back, it's stormy outside, we must make sure that these two children arrive home safely!" ”

The person behind Master Zhang took Li Xinran and Li Xiu'an to retreat, and arranged for someone to take Li Xinran and them outside to inform Xing Zhutou, and he turned back by himself.

Li Xiu'an exhaled a long breath at this time, and muttered softly to Li Xinran: "I didn't expect the official from the capital to be so easy to talk to." ”

Li Xinran hurriedly stretched out his finger to his mouth, "Shhh Motioned to Li Xiu'an not to speak, "I'll talk about it when I have something to say!" ”

Li Xiu'an stuck out his tongue and stopped talking.

In Li's mansion, Master Li looked at the wind and rain outside the house, and Zhang's chatter was in his ears, "Master, the children will be fine, right?" ”

"Why haven't you come back for so long?"

"Do you want to send a few more people to wait at the yamen?"

"What are you afraid of in the wind and snow? It's better than sitting at home and waiting! ”

Luluo hurriedly ran in from outside and said happily: "Master, madam, the second young master and the second young lady are back!" ”

"Really?" Zhang stopped walking in circles in the house, walked to the door in a few steps, and sure enough, he saw Li Xinran and Li Xiu'an, holding umbrellas and wearing raincoats, walking from the wind and rain.

Zhang hurriedly clasped his hands together, closed his eyes and reverently recited: "Thank you Bodhisattva for blessing, thank you Bodhisattva for blessing!" ”

As soon as Li Xinran and Li Xiu'an entered the door, the maids hadn't taken off their raincoats yet, so Zhang pulled them up and down and asked, "There is no grievance in the yamen, the official from the capital, he didn't embarrass you, right?" ”

"Mother! Don't worry, call us over, it's just a question, what grievances are there, we came back and they sent it personally! Besides, the official from the capital spoke kindly, how could it be so scary! ”

"That's good, that's good." Zhang said.

Master Li asked, "You were sent by Xing Zhutou and them?" Why don't you ask them for a cup of tea before leaving? ”

Li Xinran took the ginger tea handed over by the pothos and said: "Xing Zhutou and they still have an errand, and we don't want to delay them, uncle, don't worry, I have already given them silver taels, so that they can go to the teahouse to drink tea when they are free." ”

Master Li nodded, "You did it properly." ”

"Tell me in detail what you will encounter in the yamen and what the officials will ask you."

The two of them told Master Li in detail what they had seen and heard in the yamen.

"In this way, the official master in the capital thinks that the gang of bandits is well-trained and cooperative?"

Li Xinran nodded.

Li Xiu'an said, "That's right, that's what the lord said, and then said that they still have important matters to discuss, so let us come back first, or did the official ask Xing Zhutou to personally send us, saying that it was too stormy outside, and let Xing Zhutou send us back safely." ”

Master Li didn't answer Li Xiu'an's words, he pondered for a moment, and glanced at Li Xinran, "Could it be that the imperial court is arresting those thieves in the first two years?" ”

Yes? "Anti-thief?" What happened in the first two years, she doesn't know, could it be that the anti-thief that Master Li said is what kind of "anti-Qing and Ming" actions were played on TV in later generations?

Li Xinran didn't dare to ask, she couldn't tell Master Li that she didn't know about the previous two years, she only came this year, right?

Master Li looked at Li Xinran's eyes full of confusion, and thought about it, no wonder Li Xinran didn't know, she was still young two years ago, where did she remember those things, so he waved his hand at them and said: "Okay, don't think about these things anymore, go back and change into clean and dry clothes, if the court is really catching thieves, don't run to Hangzhou during this time, go back." ”

The two retired and left Chunhui Hall.

Li Xinran's heart was uneasy, in her previous life, in history class, she seemed to have heard the history teacher say that there often seemed to be that kind of "anti-Qing and Ming" uprisings in the Qing Dynasty, but when and where, she didn't remember at all, whether it was not taught in detail in history class, or because she forgot it for a long time, anyway, no matter what the reason, she doesn't know anything about this now.

There won't be a riot in this part of Xitang, right?

Li Xinran returned to Xiuyuan with a heavy heart, Li Xinyi saw her come back safely, but she happily pulled her left and right.

Seeing that Li Xinran was a little absent-minded, Li Xinyi couldn't help but ask, "But what happened in the yamen?" ”

Li Xinran shook his head and denied, "What's the matter, if something happens in the yamen, where can I come back, it may be that it is raining, and I am a little uncomfortable." ”

Li Xinyi listened, and hurriedly asked Li Xinran's two maids to prepare hot water, "You guys quickly serve Ran girl, take a hot bath, and then let her rest for a while." ”
