Chunhua gritted her teeth with hatred.

"Then you're going to forget it?"

At this time, Xiao Xia had already dressed herself, but the hairstyle here was too difficult to get and she couldn't do it herself.

"Go and call Mint in!"

Chunhua's hand is the hand holding the sword, and she can't do this kind of delicate work in her daughter's house. She wanted to ask something, but when she saw that the girl had already picked up the comb herself, she didn't ask any more, and turned around and called the mint from outside the house to help her make up.

Taishou Mansion is recently investigating thieves and arsonists, this happened on the fifteenth day of the first lunar month, to say that this thief is really bold, Lang Lang, the fifteenth day of the big moon, dare to do evil like this, it is really admirable his courage.

This is the gossip of all the taverns and teahouses in Shaoyang City now, so Shaoyang City is under martial law again, just to catch thieves.

And Shen Zhi, who was supposed to take office in the fifteenth year, was postponed in this way. was notified, and after the thief was caught, Shaoyang City quieted down.

Shen Zhidu is about to scold his mother, that thief can't be caught in his life, do you want him to wait for a lifetime? What kind of high-sounding excuse is this?

In this way, Shen Zhi couldn't turn and grind every day, so he could only wait.

Half a month has passed, and the first month has passed.

The snow enters the vernal equinox, and the peach and plum are half-opened.

Seeing that spring was coming, Shen Zhong began to get busy again, so much land, of course, he had to prepare early.

Xiao Xia counted the high-yielding rice seeds in the space and felt that it was time to expand. found Shen Zhong, and the two of them had to discuss it well.

"Dad, let's not make a noise for the time being, the land must choose the best land, and the people must use the most reliable."

Shen Zhong nodded, this matter is definitely the top priority this year, if this rice can really be developed, the life of the people will be much better in the future.

"It's up to you."

The father and daughter haven't discussed a specific plan yet! was startled by Xiao Si who banged on the door loudly.

"What's so alarming?"

"Master, there are a lot of people from the government outside, and they directly broke into the mansion and want to take the third master away?"

"What?" Shen Zhong slapped the table and hurriedly followed Xiao Si out.

Xiao Xia smiled coldly, finally here.

By the time Shen Zhong arrived in the front yard, Shen Zhi had already been splinted and shackled. He was dragged out by someone.

"I'm the new state judge, you can't do this to me, what crime have I committed?"

"When you get to the Yamen, you'll naturally know."

"Wait." Shen Zhong was also anxious, and suddenly took people away like this, which didn't look like a good thing.

"Second brother, come and save me, and explain to them, they must have caught the wrong person."

"This is my second brother, the earl of His Majesty the Emperor, and I am his own brother. Why did you arrest me? ”

The red-clothed catcher gave Shen Zhong, the earl, some face, and with a wave of his hand, the people under him stopped moving.

"Lord Earl, we came to arrest people by order, Brother Ling committed a murder seventeen years ago, and we are here to arrest him."

As he spoke, he took out an arrest warrant and looked like he was on business.

Shen Zhong was anxious when he heard this. "Seventeen years ago, my third brother was only eight years old, what murder could he have anything to do with it? My lord, are you mistaken? ”

The head catcher put the arrest warrant back in his arms, looked at it from afar, and said: "The certified physical evidence is here, otherwise we wouldn't dare to capture the officials of the imperial court at will." ”

Shen Zhi heard this and went straight away, he knew that he might really be finished this time, but who was it that hurt him like this?

Shen Zhi was quickly taken away, Xiao Xia saw Shen Zhong's anxious and puzzled look, and breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, at least his father didn't know about it, otherwise he would have committed the crime of covering up.

Before Shen Zhong could react, the old lady called someone, and the third son was arrested by the government, and he had to know what was going on.

When I entered the main hall of the warm pavilion, I heard the cry of Mrs. Jia. When he saw Shen Zhong, he pointed at Shen Zhong and scolded: "Why are you so ruthless?" Your heart is still not fleshy? He is your own brother, and you watched him being taken away by the people of the government, aren't you an earl? Are you going to get the third child back for me? ”

Shen Zhong didn't know what to say when he was scolded, he just kept his head and didn't move.

Everyone in the family was there, and Shen Cai was still drinking tea as if it was lively, and he was still talking cool words.

"I think when I was in prison, who took care of me? Gee! It's really feng shui in turn. ”

Shen Wu had been nursing his injuries at home for half a month, and his health was fine, so he never had time to arrange for Shen Cai's family. And Shen Cai's family naturally happily continued to live in the Earl's Palace.

"Grandparents, it's not that my father doesn't want to help the third uncle. But the government came with an arrest warrant, and although my father was an earl, he had no real power, so he couldn't do anything at that time. ”

"Besides, they said that the third uncle committed a murder seventeen years ago, and only then came to arrest someone. How can it be? At that time, the third uncle was only eight years old, and it was estimated that the people from the yamen made a mistake, and the third uncle would naturally be released if he was not guilty. ”

"What?" Old Man Shen listened to Xiao Xia's words, and at that time he lost the jade cigarette pole that never left his hand.

Shen Cai was also excited, shrunk his neck, and didn't taste the tea, and honestly sat on the side and didn't know what he was thinking?

"What homicide? It's nonsense, someone must be jealous of your third uncle and deliberately hurt him. Old Madam Jia was still scolding indignantly, she might be really unsympathetic to what happened seventeen years ago, but Old Man Shen must have known, otherwise he wouldn't be so panicked.

An eight-year-old child, no matter how smart and bold he is, it is impossible for him to hide from the world without the help of adults.

After Xiao Xia observed it clearly, he continued: "I think so too, it must be that the third uncle was wronged, grandparents don't worry, I still know a few nobles in the officialdom, I'll go and inquire." ”

When Mrs. Jia heard this, she hurriedly sent Shen Xiaoxia away.

When Shen Xiaoxia walked past the screen of the warm pavilion, he only heard Old Man Shen muttering a few words, making evil, and then he was silent.

Xiao Xia left the Earl's Palace, took a carriage into the city, and then found a quiet teahouse to drink tea and listen to music, and spent an afternoon leisurely before returning to the house with Chunhua, who had already inquired clearly.

As soon as I entered the courtyard, I was called to the warm pavilion.

At this time, the Shen family gathered here. In the afternoon, Shen Zhong personally went to the yamen, but he didn't even enter the gate of the yamen. Now the family is anxious, but there is no news of Shen Zhi, so they can only count on Shen Xiaoxia, who went out to investigate.

And how could Shen Xiaoxia let them down? put on a sad face, and then walked into the warm pavilion.

Seeing that Xiao Xia lowered his head and didn't speak, everyone was anxious.

"Tell me, what have you heard?"

"Seventeen years ago, the third uncle pushed his classmate He Jiaming into the river and drowned, and now that the certified physical evidence is there, the third uncle is afraid that he will ......"

"How so? Ho Ka Ming? Is that the kid from the He family? Didn't he drown himself? Mrs. Jia really didn't know about this, and looked at Xiao Xia suspiciously.
