Chapter Twenty-Six: A Visit to the Gentleman
After eating, Qin Mobao and Cui'er followed the flow of people to the Yamen of Yuyang County.
It was her first time at Daddy's workplace.
The entrance of the yamen was filled with men, women, and children.
Qin Mobao opened the crowd and finally squeezed in.
Squeeze to the front.
The solemn public hall was silent and majestic for a while.
Several officials lined up on both sides with court sticks in their hands, their expressions cold, and their eyes did not squint. Behind them stood the "Avoidance", "Silence" signs
Her father Qin Hao was wearing court clothes, and under the plaque of "Mirror Hanging" on his head.
Wearing a flower feather on his head, he sat behind the public case, his expression was cold, and he did not smile.
In the middle of the hall knelt two men.
"Whoever is in the hall, report your name!" Qin Hao raised his hand and patted the shocked wood.
"The grass people's surname is Shu, a famous city. Shucheng. β
"Didn't you say it the day before yesterday! Why are you still asking today.
Compared with Shu Cheng's honesty, the man next to him was a little impatient in the face of the boring questions of the county officials.
"The villain's surname is Li, a famous place. Li Sheng, yes too. Li Sheng muttered, but still honestly reported his name.
"The villain sued Shu Cheng for intentional wounding." Li Sheng pointed at Shu Cheng and said to Qin Hao.
ββ¦β¦β
After listening to it for a long time, Qin Mobao figured out the ins and outs of the matter.
Shu Cheng and Hanxiang have known each other for many years, but the two have made a secret promise.
It's just that Shu Cheng didn't have that much money to redeem Hanxiang at that time.
So for many years, Shu Cheng has worked hard to make money in the hope of redeeming Hanxiang as soon as possible.
Who knows, the way of heaven is impermanent.
When he finally saved money to redeem Hanxiang, Li Sheng, the son of the Li family, took a fancy to Hanxiang and forcibly bought it back to be a concubine.
Hanxiang has long been willing to Shucheng. was occupied by Li Shengqiang.
lost his chastity, thought he was shameless to face Shucheng, and under the sadness,
Drank poison.
Fortunately, the rescue was timely and saved his life.
Hanxiang's suicide is naturally an insult to the rich second-generation Li Sheng.
Her suicide was just to tell people that she didn't look down on Li Sheng.
Or it can be said that he Li Sheng is not as good as Shu Cheng in her fragrant eyes.
How can Li Sheng, who is naturally habitual, endure it.
beat and scolded Hanxiang. Physical torture, mental torture.
Let Hanxiang live better than die.
Shu Cheng heard that Hanxiang was abused by the Li family, and in a fit of anger, he beat Li Sheng in the alley.
So Li Sheng sued Shu Cheng.
Chong Guan is angry and red-faced! It turns out that this sentence can also happen to scholars.
However, no matter how you look at this lawsuit, it is won by the Li family.
Because the Li family did not break the law, and Shu Cheng committed the crime of intentional murder.
The most difficult thing is probably her father, how to break it.
Shucheng is a weak person, and in the eyes of the people, Shucheng is the same faction as them.
easily sentenced Shu Cheng to sin, but he was afraid that it would chill the hearts of the people.
And Li Sheng is also an upper-class person in Yuyang County, and the network behind him naturally needs not be explained.
Speaking of this matter, Li Sheng has the upper hand in the law.
This case has dragged on for many days, and if it drags on any longer, I am afraid that it will attract people's tongue.
Qin Mobao was in the crowd, worried about his father.
"This matter is all caused by the incense in Cuihong Township, and the incense feels ashamed, and she has taken it yesterday, and the poison is apologized."
Qin Hao threw out a *.
"Your Excellency, ...... Say what? β
Shu Cheng didn't want to believe Qin Hao's words. said that he didn't want to believe Qin Hao's words, it was better to say that he couldn't accept Hanxiang's death.
"How is that possible!" Li Sheng also voiced doubts. He had already ordered in the house that there were no suicidal things allowed in the incense room.
Not to mention poison.
The onlookers regretted Hanxiang's death a lot. There are also a few that applaud.
"I know you don't believe me." Qin Hao suddenly shouted loudly: "Bring Hanxiang's corpse up." β
"Hanxiang ......" Shu Cheng saw the woman lying flat on the straw mat, his eyes closed.
Reach out and grab the woman's arm. The coolness of the palm of your hand.
Let him cry bitterly, his voice was sad and mournful, and others could not help but shed a few tears when they heard it.
"Xiang'er, Xiang'er! You're kidding me, aren't you? You open your eyes and look at me, you open your eyes and look at me. "No matter how Shu Cheng deceived himself, the woman lying on the straw mat. I couldn't open my eyes either.
Shu Cheng picked up Hanxiang, held her in his arms, and cried: "It's me who is useless, it's me who hurt you!" I'm sorry for you! β
The boy doesn't flick when he has tears, but he hasn't reached the sad place.
Love is deep, it is joy, sadness, and sadness, regardless of men and women.
"Really...... He's dead? Li Sheng looked at the dead corpse with a scent, a little scared.
The body couldn't stop shaking.
Although he is domineering and arrogant. He doesn't take human life seriously, but he never kills people! This is also why he was beaten by Shu Cheng, and Shu Cheng is still intact.
Li Sheng, who knelt on his knees, fell directly to the ground.
"This is the pen and ink left by Hanxiang, written to Li Sheng." Qin Hao took out an envelope from the embroidery.
Call a servant and ask him to hand the envelope to Li Sheng.
"Write...... Written to me? β
Li Sheng shook his hand and took the envelope sent by the official and opened the envelope.
Li Sheng watched it for a long time, and his guilt and regret for Hanxiang turned into a sigh.
In the letter, Hanxiang apologized to him, and pleaded?
Apologize: It was she who knew that she was the Li family, but she cared about others in her heart, which made the Li family lose face.
Plea: It was she who breathed her last breath and begged him to let Shu Cheng go.
In the next life, I am willing to be a cow and a horse to repay the Li family.
Li Sheng got up, "Forget it, I won't sue!" Then he ordered the subordinates who came with him to bring back Hanxiang's corpse. β
"This is the amount of money you ransom incense on that day, when she was alive, she was subject to people, I hope she can have a free body after death. also asked Li Gongzi to return the deed of sale to Hanxiang. Shu Cheng took out a bag of money in his arms with one free hand and put it on the ground.
"Hey! Isn't it inch-in-foot? He withdrew the lawsuit against this guy, and he didn't know how to climb up and make excessive demands.
Will his Li family care about a little money? Let's laugh!
"Sheng'er!"
"Second uncle? How are you here. β
"Your father told me to come out and take a look. ......" The man who was called the second uncle by Li Sheng lowered his voice and muttered in Li Sheng's ear. "Hanxiang is dead, what are you doing when you bring the body back? You're not idle. If you want me to say, you can give the deed of sale to Shucheng, and you can get the money, but you don't have to poke the mold. You say, don't you? β
"It's not...... This ......," Li Shenggang was about to object.
Second Uncle Li Sheng directly forced the palace, "This is also what your father meant." β
When it comes to his father, Li Sheng is completely ...... Cowardly!
There was no way, he had to take the money. Then give the deed of sale to Shu Cheng.
Li Sheng was sullen, threw down his sleeves and left.
Li Sheng is gone, which means that the lawsuit is over.
The crowd of onlookers also left.
However, Shu Cheng was still holding Hanxiang's corpse, motionless.
Qin Mobao raised her head and gave her father a smile of unknown meaning.
Putting death and resurrection is a good strategy.
Qin Mobao glanced at it again. Shu Cheng and Hanxiang smiled.
Qin Mobao smeared on Zhang Sanzhong's face, and neither of them made a sound.
In the room, there was a moment of silence. I guess you can hear a needle drop on the ground.
But there is a saying: "Silence is better than sound"
Zhang Sanzhong was originally a shy person, and he was so close to Qin Mobao at this time.
The woman's body fragrance and the sound of her light breathing made his whole body tense and stiff.
The heart is beating fast! Bang bang. He felt as if his heart was about to jump out of his chest.
"What are you nervous about, sir?" Qin Mobao heard Zhang Sanzhong's irregular heartbeat and laughed softly.
The action of smearing the medicine on his hand is still repeated.
Qin Mobao was heartless, and Zhang Sanzhong's face instantly turned red under his neck.
"I ...... I've never been so close to a woman. Zhang Sanzhong said honestly.
"Oh" Qin Mobao lowered his head and dipped some medicine on his finger again, and continued to tinker with Zhang Sanzhong's face.
"Actually...... You can treat me like a man. Qin Mobao smiled and said, "I don't mind." β
Zhang Sanzhong: "......" Her breath and the woman's fragrance on her body rushed to the tip of his nose, senses. Let him think of her as a man.
"Why don't you report to the police?" Qin Mobao picked up the bottle cap placed on the table and closed it.
Why didn't he report to the official, this is a question he didn't dare to ask himself in depth recently.
In fact, he knew that he was scared and worried.
It was the people of the Sun family who beat him, and Sun Yang was Qin Mobao's fiancΓ©, and Lord Qin was kind to him. He didn't want to embarrass Lord Qin.
He deceived himself and told himself that more is better than less.
Take a step back and open the sky.
He knew what Qin Mobao meant when he asked him, and in this small Yuyang County, he shrank his head and swallowed his anger.
When I went to Kyoto, a place full of wealth and power, it was difficult to survive, and my career was even slimmer.
How can you talk about being a good official?
"It's yours! The Sun family will compensate you for your medical expenses and mental damages. Qin Mobao saw that Zhang Sanzhong was in a daze again, his delicate face was full of tangled and gloomy.
She knew that her words made Zhang Sanzhong have to face up to her own problems. She wanted to tell him that being timid and afraid of things was not suitable for being a good official.
Zhang Sanzhong looked at the broken silver and silver tickets on the table, his eyes were open, and he was stunned.
It was something he had never seen in his life.
"This ...... That's too much! β
"Too much, huh? Then divide me some. Qin Mobao raised his eyebrows. She hadn't seen anyone who would hate a lot of money.
"Okay!" Zhang Sanzhong looked at Qin Mobao's gaze, and agreed without thinking about it. Then he pushed a dozen silver tickets in front of Qin Mobao.
Qin Mobao: "......"
"This is what you bought with your body. How could I ask for it. Qin Mobao stuffed the silver ticket to Zhang Sanzhong again.
"And the Sun family has already given me money."
"Thank you!" Zhang Sanzhong's expression was moved, if it weren't for the difference between men and women, he would probably give her a hug.
"Do you have injuries on your body? Do you want me to help you? Qin Mobao suddenly changed the topic.
Zhang Sanzhong couldn't keep up with Qin Mobao's thinking jump, and was stunned for a moment.
Immediately reacted, and his face turned red again.
"No...... No! β
"Really?" Qin Mobao stared at Zhang Sanzhong's eyes and smiled evilly.
"Not really!" Zhang Sanzhong waved his hand again and again, refusing Qin Mobao's kindness.
Qin Mobao put the medicine bottle in Zhang Sanzhong's hand, "Then come by yourself!" Qin Mobao got up and prepared to go out to find her family Cui'er.
I don't know where this girl went, she was twittering to come when she didn't come, but she couldn't see her at the critical moment.
