Yang Xiaotao swept the faces of everyone in the Li family, the greedy color in their eyes and the shouting faces were vividly displayed, and she felt a burst of disgust and disgust in her heart.

She didn't answer Li Xi'er's words, but turned her head to look at the village chief and said, "Village chief, since the Li family means to take away my family business and drive me out of the village." After Yang Xiaotao said this, her cold eyes swept to the face of Li Daye, the head of the Li family, and said, "But if it is found out that the Li family deliberately framed it, then it must also be driven out of the village, and as for their belongings, they will be used to repair the academy." ”

Hearing Yang Xiaotao's words, the expression on the Li family's face was extremely exciting.

Li Xi'er's voice was extremely harsh, and said, "You are a dead star, are you crazy!" ”

The expression on Yang Xiaotao's face was a matter of course: "Aren't your Li family confident? Why are you so excited, is it because your heart is empty? ”

Li Xi'er's voice was obviously a little stumbling, "You, you are arrogant, what?" We, but there are witnesses. ”

Yang Xiaotao didn't speak, but continued to look at the village chief who was silent and didn't speak, and said, "Village chief, what do you say?" ”

The village chief looked up at a few people from the Li family, and then looked at Yang Xiaotao again, "This matter, it's not impossible, but I can't be the master, I still have to find the county master for this matter." ”

As soon as they heard that they were going to find the county master, the expressions on the faces of the Li family were full of strangeness, they didn't want to make a big deal out of it, they originally wanted to get rid of Yang Xiaotao, but if it went to the county master, if the county master interrogated carefully, wouldn't everything be over?

Li Ming nervously wiped the sweat from his forehead, and there was an inexplicable worry in his heart.

And Qinghe, who was beside him, gently patted his arm, signaling him to calm down, and then stood on tiptoe and whispered in his ear, "Don't worry, the county master also has to talk about evidence, as long as that person bites to death, it will be fine." ”

Looking at Li Ming's expression that gradually calmed down, a trace of disgust flashed in Qinghe's eyes that others could not detect, she was originally a Qinglou woman, but now she is over twenty-eight years old, and she has no youth for a few years, and the girls in the flower pavilion are all beautiful and young.

And she is already a, seeing that there are fewer and fewer of her guests, she moved her mind to leave the Flower Pavilion, but unfortunately she was gone, I thought that Li Ming was a scholar, and there should be some foundation in the family, in order to make Li Ming's family not look down on herself in the future, the money for redemption was all paid by herself, and the body she saved over the years was enough to redeem herself.

Although she could later detect that Li Ming's family was not what she thought, it was too late, and she could only smile and tell Li Ming that she was looking for him as a person, and money was something outside her body, and Li Ming was still confused at that time.

After Li Ming took her back to this village, Qinghe's intestines were repentant, how could he be blind, thinking back to the famous flower pavilion in the capital, where the magnificence could be compared here.

But the ancient woman's deep-rooted thoughts, marrying a chicken with a chicken, marrying a dog with a dog, she was born as a Qinglou woman, and she couldn't avoid it, she came out of the kiln, and was abandoned by Li Ming, and all her silver was used to redeem herself, and the second half of her life can be imagined, so she can only endure it.

After Qinghe's reassurance just now, Li Ming had gradually calmed down, and after giving Li Daye beside him a reassuring expression, he said, "Yang Xiaotao, for the sake of my deceased second brother, if you leave with the child now, we will turn a blind eye, but if you make trouble with the county master, you will be punished." ”

Li Daye frowned, he was actually extremely worried in his heart, if the East Window incident happened, he was afraid that the family would not only have to be beaten by the board, but if he didn't get it right, he would have to go to jail, but the confidence on his son's face, and thinking of the money, restaurants, fields and colleges in Yang Xiaotao's hands, he was also heartbroken.

Yang Xiaotao ignored Li Ming, but told the village chief to find an ox cart and prepare to go to the town.

However, before the ox cart arrived, a carriage slowly stopped at the door of Yang Xiaotao's house, the horse's hooves were steady, a cry was made in the nose, a breath of white gas, and a neigh.

Yang Xiaotao looked at Yuwen Xiu beside her in confusion, Yu Wenxiu nodded dotingly, Yang Xiaotao smiled lightly, and under the surprised expression of the Li family, she helped Yu Wenxiu's hand into the carriage.

After Yuwen Xiu also got into the carriage, the carriage stepped away and disappeared in front of everyone's eyes.

"Humph! What is there to be proud of, wait until the yamen has her good-looking! Li Xi'er reluctantly climbed into the later ox cart.

Because the county lord has lived in Xianghe Town for a long time, so Xianghe Town has not had a prefect, and the county magistrate personally handles all affairs, in fact, although Xianghe Town is not as big as the county seat, but compared to other towns, it is also quite large, and Xianghe Town's prosperous and lively scene is also incomparable to other towns.

Yang Xiaotao arrived at the yamen first, Yu Wenxiu accompanied him to stand at the door of the yamen, there were two catchers standing on the side of the yamen gate, a red drum was erected on the right side of the gate, and directly above the gate, a plaque had two big black characters written on it: yamen.

After waiting for half an hour, the Li family, including an ox cart where the village chief was sitting, slowly drove over.

Wait until a few people got off the ox cart, Huang stepped forward quickly, and trotted towards the drum of grievances, Yang Xiaotao looked at her age, this speed, it is estimated that she can flash her waist if she is not careful, but Huang twisted her big buttocks and went straight to the front of the drum of grievances, but there was nothing at all, grabbed the drum hammers on both sides, it was a fierce knock, and shouted while knocking, "Master, you have to be the master of our family!" ”

Immediately, the passers-by who walked were attracted by her and surrounded her.

"Who dares to be presumptuous in the Yamen!" Immediately after that, a catcher came and shouted loudly.

Huang saw that he was catching fast, and he cried with a handful of snot and tears, and Yang Xiaotao smacked his tongue, this acting skill was really a waste in ancient times.

When the arrest was about to go and inform the county magistrate, several people were taken into the yamen.

On the desk directly above the main hall of the Yamen, it was that day that the county magistrate who came to take away Qian Dafu and a few people was no longer embarrassed at this time, wearing the official mansion, and he really looked like an official in the costume TV series that Yang Xiaotao watched.

"Smack!" The shocking wood was in the hands of the county master, and it rang heavily!

"Who's in the hall? Can there be grievances? The county magistrate put down the shocked wood in his hand, and then raised his eyes to look at the Huang family who was kneeling on the ground, and the few people behind her.

It's "Smack!" again. The county magistrate said sharply, "Why didn't you kneel when you saw this official?" Everyone in the Li family was suddenly attacked by the county master, and suddenly their legs were weak and they all knelt down.

As a result, Yang Xiaotao and Yu Wenxiu, who were blocked by them, appeared in the eyes of the county master, and when they saw Yang Xiaotao, the county master was stunned, and then looked at Yu Wenxiu, and suddenly shook his hand with a shocking hand.

Yang Xiaotao was also going to kneel, she understood the truth that people had to bow their heads under the eaves, but Yu Wenxiu grabbed her wrist in time and gave her a reassuring look, she could only stand wooden.

The county master really jumped over Yang Xiaotao and Yu Wenxiu directly, and looked at Li Mingdao, who was standing on the side as a matter of course, "Who are you, why don't you kneel?" ”

Li Ming's tone was a little arrogant: "The student is a showman. ”

Xiucai became a student of the government school, state school, and county school, participated in the township examination held in the province, and the passers participated in the Ministry of Rites examination, and took the top few candidates for the palace examination.

However, if you can obtain the qualification of showmanship, you can not only make progress in your career, but also gain respect in the local area, and have unprecedented rights and interests for ordinary people.

After hearing this, the county master turned his gaze back to the others who were kneeling on the ground, "Why is it called wrong?" And beat the drum of injustice? You know it's a felony! ”

Hearing the words of the county master, Huang's heart suddenly tightened, how did she know!

"Pull the drummer down the big twenty boards first!" Before the Huang family could explain, the county magistrate had already given an order.

In this era, the drum of grievances cannot be beaten casually, only if there is a great grievance, someone will ring it, even if it is a big grievance, it must be hit with 20 boards first.

Immediately afterwards, he walked out of the two catchers, and the Huang family was about to be dragged out.

The Li family was suddenly anxious, and Li Ming didn't dare to stop him, although he was a showman, and it was not something he could oppose, he only blamed himself for forgetting to tell his mother just now, but he didn't expect that the Huang family would run directly to beat the drum of grievances.

Soon, there were bursts of Huang's heart-rending cries outside the hall.

"Ahh Yes! It hurts me! "Spare me, sir! Yes! "Ahh Good grace, old man! ”....

Huang's bursts of screams made Yang Xiaotao, who was standing in the hall, feel relieved, just her old bones, it is estimated that this time she will not be able to make trouble in the future.

Li Ming heard his mother's screams, his teeth rattled, and when he turned his head to look at Yang Xiaotao and Yu Wenxiu who were standing, he suddenly said with both hands, "My lord, the two of them are not showmen, and they don't even kneel, they are despising the court!" ”

The county magistrate, who was still waiting for the trial of the Huang family's board, heard Li Ming's words, raised his hand and picked up the shocking wood is "Smack!" He said sharply, "This official does things, and you are also a show of talent?" ”

Li Ming was suddenly taken aback, his legs were weak, he knelt on the ground and begged for mercy, "My lord, the student knows that he is wrong!" ”

The county magistrate frowned, glared at Li Ming angrily, and secretly thought in his heart, did he dare to let Yuwen Xiu kneel? Although he didn't know what Yuwen Xiu came from, but after that day, he knew that this person was the master he couldn't provoke, and then looked at Li Ming who was kneeling on the ground, and he didn't open any pot and said, "Come on, palm mouth!" ”

Then I saw a catcher, walking towards Li Ming, raising his big hand, and fanning Li Ming's face.

There was a "Bang!" from the hall. Syllable! Syllable! The sound of slapping was also mixed with Li Ming's voice begging for mercy, "My lord, the student knows that he is wrong, ah!" Spare the students! ”

Qinghe, Li Xi'er and Li Daye all lowered their heads, and the expressions on their faces were invisible, but their bodies kneeling on the ground trembled slightly, and it was conceivable that they were afraid in their hearts at this time.

Yang Xiaotao raised her eyes in surprise and glanced at Yu Wenxiu, who was still expressionless, as a killer, shouldn't he be blind? Why is the county magistrate so afraid of him? Could it be that he was afraid that Yuwen Xiu would retaliate against him in the future?
