It wasn't until she opened it carefully that people saw that there was a square inkstone with grinding strips and several brushes.

Xiao Qinglang squinted slightly, looking at those things with an unpredictable expression. When he saw that Zhang Xiao had sharpened the grinding strip, and Xu Chu had already taken the brush and wanted to write a letter, he reined in his mind and stepped forward to take the pen from Xu Chu's hand.

"I'll write it." He is now behind Xu Chu, and when he draws the pen, it seems that he is half-hugging Xu Chu. As soon as she spoke, a deep voice sounded in Xu Chu's ears, making her breathe pause for a moment.

Xu Chu's ears softened, and he let go of his hand and took a step back with some embarrassment. She looked at Xiao Qinglang with some doubts, and originally proposed that this letter be written by her, mostly because of Xiao Qinglang's identity.

As the King of Jing'an, who was in charge of the three legal divisions, he had reviewed more than one or two official documents of the case. In the files of the Jinzhou City Mansion, there will certainly not be all his handwriting. If those people have a heart, they will compare one or the other, and then ......

Xiao Qinglang saw the worry in Xu Chu's eyes, and couldn't help but sigh and whispered: "You haven't married yet, you need to be cautious about giving away women's Mobao handwriting." ”

When I was in the capital, there were also people like gangsters and ruffians who took women's handwritten letters to damage the reputation of the women in the boudoir. Then let the bystanders who didn't know the inside story feel that it should be the evidence left by the woman and the person for a private life.

Later, Jingzhao Mansion had a large-scale rectification, and even severely punished many ruffians with laws. However, the case is easy to decide, and the reputation of the girlfriend is difficult to pursue. It is precisely for this reason that since the late period of the first emperor, the general powerful and wealthy families will leave a maid who can read and write by the side of the young lady at home. Whether it is poems or external letters, she writes many of them.

Of course, if it is a private message, most of it is written by the lady herself.

Xiao Qinglang originally didn't care much about this matter, he had always believed in the Qing and the Qing from the beginning, and even hoped that the woman who encountered such an incident could trust the court and the government. In fact, his idea is not wrong, it is probably like hoping that the law of the Great Zhou Dynasty will become more and more sound.

But how can all the things of the world be 11 and 22? It's like, for the sake of family reputation and reputation, some families often hide this kind of thing. is afraid that after the government intervenes, it will ruin the rest of her daughter's life.

However, it seems that the idea that he had adhered to for many years before was self-defeating after meeting Xu Chu. Even principles can be compromised.

Xu Chu was stunned for a moment, and he understood the meaning of his words. Her heart is slightly sweet, in the early years at home, even her father had never been so meticulous and cautious. It feels like being cared for by a person.

Xiao Qinglang lowered his eyes and brushed, his soft wide sleeves fluttered lightly, beautiful and elegant, and he looked more and more handsome.

Xu Chu's gaze moved down from his tall and handsome body, and finally fell on the rice paper.

The old wooden table, which could not be seen in color, seemed to be a bit low-key and introverted because of a free, gentle and elegant letter. If it weren't for the limitations of the environment here, I'm afraid that others would think that the desk might be an antiquity from the previous dynasty.

Xu Chu raised her eyebrows, she naturally had seen Xiao Qinglang's usual handwriting on official documents. Knowing that he is the best at italics, the so-called "square shape, straight strokes, can be used as a model" standard is not an exaggeration. Even if you look at the past, you can see that the pen is strong and sharp in the place where you turn back, rich in the vast and rich calm temperament, as if it contains the power of thunder.

She also tried to imitate it, but found that she could only make it look like it, and finally wrote a mess of things that didn't look like it.

However, she never thought that Xiao Qinglang could actually write a second font that was completely different from the line letters. And between the pen and the pen, there is no ordinary sharp and deep atmosphere, it is all elegant and free.

After the writing was finished, Zhang Xiaoshi carefully blew the letter, and then greeted with a smile and said, "If you two are not in a hurry to leave, you can take a look at the article made by my family enemy." As she spoke, she cautiously took out a stack of papers from her baggage, "This is what Qiu Er usually writes when she reviews her homework at home." I saw that it was well written, and it all survived. ”

Xu Chu nodded and gently took the articles from her hand.

"Is it a book?" Xiao Qinglang raised his eyebrows and whispered in Xu Chu's ear, "The handwriting is beautiful, it looks like I have practiced for many years, but I have some style." ”

It's a pity that it's still a little thinner. If it weren't for being in front of others, Xiao Qinglang would probably have sighed regretfully. The so-called people are like their words, such as Zhang Qiu, with a big difference in the strength of the front and back strokes, and most of them are impatient and often complain about the sky.

He calmly asked Zhang Xiao for an article, and then took Xu Chu away.

Zhang Xiao seemed to want to say something, and sent the two of them all the way to the mouth of the alley. At this time, a man who was emaciated by alcohol came over scolding, and when he saw Zhang Xiaoshi, he shouted directly: "Stinky woman, hurry up and give Lao Tzu some silver." ”

Obviously, this person is Zhang San.

Zhang Xiao's face changed slightly, but because Xiao Qinglang and Xu Chu were there, he did not attack on the spot. She gritted her teeth and said, "I'll go get it for you." ”

"Lao Tzu has to ask for ten taels of silver this time." He was drunk and burped, and then his footsteps floated, passing crookedly past Xiao Qinglang and Xu Chu. Xu saw Xiao Qinglang's handsome face, and he deliberately stretched out his hand, and wanted to pat Xiao Qinglang's chest in a frivolous manner. "Where did the little brother come from, he is better looking than Brother Shun, why don't you follow the uncle?"

Xu Chu's face on the side sank suddenly, and he stepped forward to push Zhang San away.

Only Xiao Qinglang didn't make the slightest movement, and he didn't even move his brows, but at the moment when Xu Chu raised his hand, he kicked the person out with force on his feet.

Wei Guang, who couldn't come over in time, mourned for Zhang San in his heart, and looked away a little unbearably.

God, this person really hanged himself from the old birthday star, and he thinks he has a long life. You must know that the last time his prince investigated the case, the gentleman who teased him is still in exile in Lingnan. That one can be regarded as the cousin grandson of the elder of the pavilion, and the family is still somewhat related to the clan.

Now this three, who has no background and no power, how can he dare to flirt with people at will?

But before he could call the guards who were pretending to be coachmen to come forward and fork people away, he saw the three men rolling around and cursing, "Where did you dare to hit Lao Tzu, beware of Lao Tzu letting Tongzhi and the state judge put you all in prison......

"I tell you, as long as I speak, the same knowledge and the state judge will listen to me. I let them go east, and they will never go west. If you know each other, you should serve Lao Tzu well, otherwise I will let you not be able to mix in Jinzhou City. Zhang Sanwai shouted dryly, and at the same time looked at Xiao Qinglang's eyes with bad intentions.

Zhang Xiao, who didn't have time to stop him, turned white in an instant, and apologized to Xiao Qinglang and Xu Chu again and again in horror. Then he desperately covered Zhang San's mouth and said in a loud voice: "I'll give you silver, and there are still twenty taels at home, all of which will be given to you." Don't talk nonsense. ”

The mothers-in-law, who were originally chatting with Xiao Mingzhu, also came over to see the excitement when they heard the movement. Seeing this scene, he immediately shook his head and said: "Zhang's family, why are you so drunk, we have heard these drunken words for more than ten years, and he doesn't know how to change them." ”

"No, it's a shame that the big men won't come to a place like ours, otherwise I wouldn't have to betray him for a crime when I heard him boast like this."

A few people, you and I said a word, but it diluted the solemn atmosphere caused by the terrifying coldness exuded by Xiao Qinglang's body.

When he was about to get into the carriage, Xiao Mingzhu saw that his third uncle's face was gloomy, and as soon as his eyes moved, he wisely raised his hand and said: "I want to ride a horse, the little red horse runs very steadily, and it is not worse than the one I picked for Sister Chu last time." ”

Just kidding, just now my third uncle was molested by a wine bag and rice bag, and the mood must be as bad as it gets. She was stunned, so she would follow the carriage.

So, she handed Xu Chu a look of self-begging, and quickly followed the place where she parked and dismounted.

As soon as she got on the horse, she seemed to have remembered something, and hurriedly turned her head to look at Xu Chu, "Sister Chu, when the festival comes, let's also go on horseback riding." ”

Xu Chu might as well have her thoughts jump so much, now that the Lantern Festival has just passed, she is actually thinking about the Shangsi Festival. It made her a little unable to keep up for a while.

On the carriage, Xiao Qinglang saw that Xu Chu looked like he was facing a great enemy, and he wanted to stop talking, and his tense and cold expression suddenly relaxed.

"What kind of eyes do you have? Could it be that I'm really afraid that I'll go crazy because of Zhang San's incident? ”

Xu Chu looked at him, didn't you almost go crazy just now? But thinking that this is probably about the face of men, she didn't mention much of it.

Xiao Qinglang saw that she didn't speak, so he simply leaned against the wall of the car and said, "Did you see anything just now?" ”

Xu Chu pondered for a moment, and only after clarifying his thoughts did he nod slightly, "Zhang Xiao's family has a problem with Zhang Qiu, and the problem is very big. And Zhang San is also involved with the fake acquaintance Liu Morang and the fake sentence Song Derong. ”

Even if he was drunk, if he had nothing to do with those two people, he couldn't boast and shout for no reason. The so-called nothing in the world is groundless, and the same can be seen in the words of drunkenness.

For example, no matter how drunk a person is, he will not make up drunken words related to officials in Beijing or the royal family. And what he said was also named, with a nose and eyes.

Xiao Qinglang nodded and added: "Zhang Xiaoshi knows a little about writing and ink, and he is quite skilled in grinding techniques, and he is not like an ordinary vulgar person who does not understand words. And the pen, ink, paper, and inkstone she took out are all of the highest quality, and they are by no means something that ordinary people can consume. Moreover, Zhang San opened his mouth to ask her for ten taels of silver, and it seemed that she had already used it. In other words, she provides Zhang Sanjiu and raising men all year round, where does the money come from, it is impossible for her to have such a high salary just by working alone. ”
