Chapter 42: The Little Things (The Third Collection)
Jiang Ruolan got her father's warrant, walked out of the door, and bumped into a person head-on. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info
"Sister, why are you so careless?"
The person who came was a young woman, with long hair like a waterfall, wearing a pink and purple Luo skirt, and her appearance was somewhat similar to Jiang Ruolan.
"Sister, why are you here?" Jiang Ruolan looked at her sister Jiang Ruoshui suspiciously.
Jiang Ruoshui smiled, pulled Jiang Ruolan aside, and said in a low voice: "I heard that there are two people in the family, who are the maidservants of the guy surnamed Fang, and they are still here to ask us for help?"
For some reason, hearing her sister call Fang Haoran in such a contemptuous tone, Jiang Ruoshui felt a little uncomfortable in her heart, nodded and said, "The person who came is indeed Fang Haoran's maid, Fang Haoran was framed in Yuhua County, and they came to me for help." ”
"I really have to help, after all, that person ...... me"
Jiang Ruoshui nodded, suddenly changed his words, and said: "I heard that guy had a marriage contract with me, but it was all impulsively set by my father when he was young, our family has not been in contact with their Fang family for more than ten years, and I don't know that person, it is absolutely impossible for me to marry him." So I want you to do me a favor. ”
"Sister, what do you mean?" Jiang Ruolan frowned.
Jiang Ruoshui laughed and said: "When you arrive in Yuhua County, see that person, help me explain my heart to him, I have entrusted a heart to Liu Wang, the king of Jiangyin, you told him not to think about me, die that heart." ”
After a pause, Jiang Ruoshui continued: "You can't save him in vain, ask him to return the marriage letter he made at the beginning to me, I don't want King Jiangyin to hear any bad rumors." "The purpose of her coming to Jiang Ruolan is only this, she wants to get the marriage book back, otherwise he will come to Qiantang Mansion with the marriage book in Japan, if the king of Jiangyin knows about it, I am afraid that the king of Jiangyin will be dissatisfied with her.
Jiang Ruolan frowned deeply, extremely uncomfortable in her heart, and said secretly: Sister, if you are really happy with the King of Jiangyin, you will go and explain to Fang Haoran by yourself, I believe that Fang Haoran is not the kind of person who stalks, but you asked me to get the marriage certificate back without even seeing the other party's face, what kind of reason is this, the marriage book was set by my father, I can't do this.
So, Jiang Ruolan smiled bitterly and said, "I'm afraid it's difficult for me to fulfill my sister's request." ”
"Sister, why don't you even want to help with your sister's little favor?" Jiang Ruoshui's face turned gloomy.
Jiang Ruolan shook her head and said: "The marriage letter was set by my father, and it should be decided by my father to cancel the marriage letter, how can I go beyond my bounds? Okay, it's not too early, I have to rush to Yuhua County to save Fang Haoran, so I won't say more to my sister." With that, Jiang Ruolan left in a hurry.
Jiang Ruoshui glared at him resentfully, dodged his feet angrily, and said to himself: "You are a little slut born of a maid, calling you a sister is to lift you, and you dare not listen to me, it is unreasonable, I will go to my father, I don't believe that in front of the king of Jiangyin and a poor scholar, my father will not know how to choose." ”
Of course, Jiang Ruolan didn't know about these.
When Jiang Ruolan came to the living room again, she saw that Da Yu'er was still waiting anxiously, while Xiao Yu'er was tired and sleepy, and she couldn't help but fall asleep on the chair.
Seeing Jiang Ruolan come back, Da Yu'er's eyes suddenly lit up, and she hurriedly stepped forward and asked, "Sister Jiang, how is it?"
Jiang Ruolan nodded and said with a smile: "The matter is done, we can go!" Hey, Xiao Yu'er is asleep, I will ask someone to send her to the guest room to sleep, don't catch a cold here." ”
Da Yu'er looked at her sister who was sleeping, and was a little distressed, so she nodded and obeyed Jiang Ruolan's orders.
Outside the door, the family had already led a maroon foal and waited.
Jiang Ruolan jumped up, looked at Da Yu'er, who was a little at a loss, and said with a smile: "Sister Yu'er, I'll take you so quickly." Saying that, pull Da Yu'er up, whip it, and go in the direction of Yuhua County.
At the entrance of the county government in Yuhua County, thirteen corpses were neatly placed, twelve of them were wearing clothes for catching fast, and one was wearing prison clothes.
At this time, the surrounding crowd was full of people watching the excitement, pointing and discussing:
"Isn't this our county government's catch, how can he die?"
"I heard that Jiang Yang's thief Li Dazui escaped from prison last night, and these arrests were all killed by Li Dazui. ”
"Tsk, these catchers usually bully and dominate the market, and if they don't do good things, they'll all die!" a tall man said angrily. When the people around heard this, they immediately took a few steps back and stayed away from him.
A servant came over, brandished a stick, and shouted, "Get out, what's there to see?"
The crowd dispersed and all hid across the street.
At this time, two old men dressed in official mansions walked over with crabs.
"Lord Prefectural, Lord Prefectural!"
The official stepped forward respectfully, with a flattering expression, like a dog bending over a bone.
The county commander glanced at it, extremely dissatisfied, and said angrily: "What is the situation, have you found out? How can someone escape from prison, and how can so many people die?"
"Lord Wang, it doesn't matter if these arrests are dying, it's a big deal to give more pensions, the key problem is this Li Dazui. The county said worriedly.
"Oh, what does Lord Zhu mean by this?" the county order was puzzled.
County Cheng Zhu Xi said in a low voice: "Although this Li Dazui is a Jiangyang thief, it is not enough to be a Taoist, but this person has an elder brother, who is one of the leaders of the Valley of the Wicked a hundred miles away, if the people of the Valley of the Wicked know that his brother died in our hands, then it will be troublesome!"
"Does the Valley of the Wicked still dare to kill our county government?" said the county commander fiercely. But no matter how you look at it, there is a taste of color and guilt.
The county Cheng Zhu Xi said: "If you are not afraid of 10,000, you are afraid of what happens, who knows if these wicked people will take risks? If you want me to see it, it is better to suppress this matter and hide the news of Li Dazui's death, so that the people in the Valley of the Wicked will think that he is still in prison, and it will be fine." After a few years, we will be transferred, and even if this matter makes waves again, it will not be relevant to us. ”
"This is very good, this plan is wonderful!" the county commander clapped his hands happily, asking him to make money, and if he wanted him to go to the Valley of the Wicked, he would be scared awake in the middle of the night.
County Cheng Zhu Xi smiled disdainfully, and then said: "There is another thing I forgot to tell Lord Wang, yesterday a poor scholar injured my nephew's family and stole him a thousand taels of silver, so I asked someone to arrest him and ask your lord to decide." ”
The county magistrate said indifferently: "Eh, don't bother me with this kind of trivial matter. ”
The county Cheng Zhu Xi smiled slightly, and said: "I am ready, this person is reading the book of sages but is a traitor, it is simply insulting to the kindness of the saint, when the crime is added to the first degree, my suggestion is to punish a hundred rods, slash them, and then exile for thousands of miles." ”
The rod is punished with a hundred, and if a person is not killed, he will be half disabled, and the slashing is even more vicious, and the nose must be cut off, and then exiled for thousands of miles, which is to put people to death.
The county commander said secretly: I don't know how this person offended the county Cheng, it is better to die if he has to suffer such a hardship, but I can't be guilty of making trouble with the county Cheng for this trivial matter, so I let him deal with it himself.
"It's up to you whether you want to be imprisoned or exiled, just go back and print the documents to me. ”
The county commander waved his hand and left, leaving the county man with a sneer on his face.
