"Dead old woman, what are you doing? Die to the death. Several patrols saw that Granny Li was about to jump the moat, and scolded, "If you die here, we have to take the blame for you, salvage and collect the body, and be punished for incompetence." ”

Granny Li looked at them with dull eyes, and before she could move, she was pulled away from the moat by the patrol, and she had mixed feelings in her heart, and she couldn't even die.

"Uncle, my son died, my daughter-in-law was robbed, pity my unborn grandson-"

"Get out, dead old woman, if you have something to do with the county master, we are not the master of Qingtian." Patrolling disgusted that Granny Li was dirty, there were blood stains on her head, and her hair was messy, and pushed her to the ground.

Granny Li fell to the ground, even more embarrassed.

"Hey, people are ruined, as an official, it's just a matter of not helping to redress grievances, and maliciously pushing the old man, is there any royal law?" At this time, Chunhua and Qiuyue passed by, couldn't stand it, and accused loudly. Chunhua went to help Granny Li up.

When the official saw them dressed up, one was delicate and lovely, the other was heroic and smart, and the three patrols couldn't help but swallow their saliva. The patrol in the middle had bright eyes, his heart was moving, and he smiled obscenely: "Wang Fa? Girl, the two funniest words in the world are Wang Fa, Wang Fa is formulated by the strong to bully the weak, girl, you accompany our brother to the restaurant to sit down, maybe, Wang Fa will come out. ”

"Yes, yes, girl, it's noon, you haven't eaten yet, let's invite the third brother." The patrol on the right rolled his eyes, looked at them carefully, and said secretly in his heart: My obedient, I don't know who has such a beautiful maid in the house, why haven't I seen it before, maybe it's passing by Jiaodong, hehe, isn't that-

"Y-you're deceiving people too much!" was teased, Chunhua blushed, and tears began to whirl.

Qiu Yue was much calmer, and smiled: "Okay, but we came out to do things on the orders of the master, and we went back late, I am afraid that the master will scold, why don't the three masters go to the house with us?" ”

As soon as they met, they invited people to go to the house, Chunhua was ashamed and angry, I don't know what was going on with Qiuyue, the three of them were cruising but elated, what house, it is estimated that they went to a remote place, it seems that the two girls also took a fancy to them, tsk, such a beautiful girl, they are rare to see in their lives, and the spring heart in my heart almost jumped out.

"Let's go." Qiu Yue smiled, and the hearts of the three cruisers rippled, and they couldn't help but step forward to keep up.

Chunhua was about to struggle, Qiuyue glanced at her and pulled her away, Chunhua was puzzled, glared angrily, and still supported Granny Li.

The clever cruising man took two steps, his face was full of rippling smiles, and he asked, "Dare to ask the girl, where is the house?" ”

Qiu Yue was still smiling, and threw a flattering eye: "Weining Hou Mansion." ”

Suddenly his feet seemed to be fixed on the ground, and he couldn't lift them anymore, and the smile on his face froze. It's true that there is a colored gall, but it's still a small life, I thought it was a girl passing by, it turned out to be from the Weining Marquis Mansion, and it's a big game now. The maid who is teasing the Hou Mansion will shed her skin even if she doesn't die.

The clever patrol was covered with cold sweat on his back, and laughed dryly: "It turned out to be a girl from the Weining Hou Mansion, disrespectful and disrespectful, ouch, Lao Zhuang, do we still have a case to handle?" ”

Lao Zhuang was the one in the middle of them just now, he slapped his head and said angrily: "Yes, I almost forgot, damn it, damn it, if the adults know, we have to be scolded to death." After he finished speaking, he ran away with two cruisers, wishing to have four legs.

"Damn, Qiu Yue, why are you still kind to these disciples?" At this time, Chunhua finally said that she was unhappy, squinted at her, and distanced herself, with a posture of wanting to break up.

"Are you spring-hearted, I'll tell the master to go." Chunhua's mouth is raised high.

Qiu Yue secretly laughed and pinched her face.

Chunhua took a step back and snorted coldly: "Misbehaving, I misjudged you." ”

Qiu Yue glanced at her: "We've known each other for two or three years, am I that kind of person?" ”

Chunhua thought about it seriously, it seemed that Qiuyue had always done her duty, and she didn't have a close relationship with any man, there were other rumors, and she said: "You are Chun's heart moved, and you don't look at who those people are just now, a crooked melon and cracked dates, a thief eyebrows, and a robdding." ”

Although the eyes of those people just now were a little obscene, their appearance was very upright, and they were not so unbearable, Qiu Yue sneered: "I know, only your young master is the most handsome and chic." ”

Chunhua was a little surprised after hearing this, and said with her fingers crossed: "Originally, the young master was kind-hearted, handsome and romantic, and rich in learning——"

"Okay, I know, I have said so much, no wonder I refuse to marry and want to stay in the Hou Mansion. I see that one day I will tell the young master, accept you as a concubine. Qiu Yue's eyes were a little ambiguous.

Chunhua reddened her neck: "Being a concubine, what, what a mess, I-I will be content as long as I can be the young master's maid, don't laugh, uh, you still laugh, you played tricks on the young master that day, you don't have a share, you don't want to leave." ”

"I'm a dowry maid, so naturally I have to follow the young lady and my uncle, how can there be any reason to leave."

"After all, you're a girl in the room, hey, one day the young master will put you-hehe, aren't you a concubine."

Qiu Yue also blushed when she heard this, and shook her head and said: "Okay, don't make trouble, I was joking with them just now, I don't have the same knowledge as them, Miss and I used to go out, three religions and nine streams, I have seen a lot of such people, I can't be angry, who called you outstanding?" If you look at you more and you get angry, you have to be angry. Although my uncle's position is high, there are many people who want to harm him, so let's not bother to pay attention to those scoundrels and don't make trouble for my uncle. ”

Chunhua seemed to understand whether she understood or not, and she was puzzled: "The master is obviously approachable and never argues with others, why do they always want to hurt the master?" ”

"You can't have the heart to hurt people, you can't have the heart to defend people, in this world, how can there be so many truths, you don't fight with others, but others want to fight with you, if you are too weak, they will bully you and enslave you, if you are strong, they will also find a way to frame you, target you, and step you down, they can be on top, and people's hearts fight, it has always been like this."

Chunhua couldn't help but admire: "Qiuyue, you know so much." ”

"I understand this because Miss He is often taught by Master Jian, who has not fallen in the court for decades, and it is not something that can be done with a mouthful of truth."

Chunhua seems to have understood. She looked at Granny Li and asked about the situation.

When Granny Li saw those people scared away, she came back to her senses a little, knowing that the two girls in front of her were extraordinary, and immediately fell to her knees: "Miss, Miss, the people are wronged, please Miss is the master of the people's women." ”

Chunhua and Qiuyue glanced at each other, frowned, Qiuyue said: "Auntie, we are not a young lady, we are just a maid, we can't be the master, as the saying goes, it's better to die than to live, what happened to you, to the point of seeking death?" ”

Hearing that it was just a maid, Granny Li's eyes showed disappointment, but when they asked, she told her what happened to her.

After listening to Granny Li's words, knowing that someone was lawless, robbed the people's daughters, and the county order did not accept the case, the two girls raised their eyebrows, gritted their teeth and gurgled their teeth, and scolded those dog officials, eager to correct them immediately.

"Qiuyue, Granny Li is really pitiful, her son is gone, and her daughter-in-law has been robbed, but the lord said that he has no power to manage local affairs, what should I do?"

Qiu Yue pondered for a while, looked at Granny Li's tragic situation again, couldn't bear it in her heart, sighed and said, "Let's take Granny Li back and let the master decide." ”

In the Marquis of Weining's Mansion, Chen Yuan looked at Granny Li who was crying and complaining, and there were two girls who were secretly sticking out their tongues, very big. He first inquired carefully, such as her son's personality, since some people said that his son owed debts, it was not necessarily groundless, whether there was any gambling behavior, who came to arrest her daughter-in-law, whether there was anyone who knew her, Granny Li just said that her son was honest, and nothing else was known, Chen Yuan sighed secretly and was silent.

The mother's judgment of her son is the most likely to be untrue, in the eyes of the vast majority, her son is honest, this honesty is not established, even if he is honest, he may be defrauded, he owes money to repay the money, he can't afford to pay it back, and using people to mortgage is not a new thing in ancient times, there are mortgages for children, there are mortgages for wives, if you really owe money, it is difficult to win a lawsuit, this account is another story. However, it is indeed lawless to come to the door late at night to rob people's daughters, not to mention that women still have children in their wombs, which is a great crime.

When Chen Yuan heard this, he sulked in his heart, all kinds of injustices in this world, many things are miserable, which makes people hate and helpless.

But he is not a local governor, he can't interfere in local affairs, and it can't be like in the TV series, as soon as the big official arrives, he holds the sword of Shang Fang, and he is done with the corrupt officials. In fact, the family has family rules, the state has national laws, no matter how big an official is, he can only find the person who manages this matter, deal with it layer by layer, block it layer by layer, report it layer by layer, and finally deal with it by the relevant departments. In the past, when Shandong beheaded officials, it had to be approved by the emperor himself.

Therefore, various departments and officials passed the buck, and many things were finally resolved.

If he wants to help Granny Li, he will have to face the huge official collective of Jiaodong, not to mention the ashes, and his majesty will be lost. But since he encountered this incident, he had no way to turn a blind eye.

"Young master, what do you say?" Chunhua saw that the old man's brows were locked into a rope, and she knew that the young master was very embarrassed, so she asked weakly. She has followed the young master for many years, she doesn't understand those politics, but her whole heart is on the young master, if the young master is not happy, she will not be happy, and if the young master is happy, she will be happy.

"Ask the Hou Ye to be the master of the people's wife." Granny Li knocked her head a few more times.

Chen Yuan was moved, the fire in his heart was slowly spreading, an ordinary woman, her son died, her daughter-in-law was robbed, the life and death of the child in her daughter-in-law's womb were unknown, that group of people oppressed such a poor person, it was simply inhumane and unconscionable, no matter what, they couldn't turn a blind eye, and they had to seek justice for the old man

"Chunhua, take Granny Li to the wing room first, arrange to stay, and in addition, get some food for her." Chen Yuan thought for a long time before speaking.

Chunhua hurriedly went to arrange.

Jian Yixuan came out of the back hall, knew what happened, and reproached Qiu Yue: "Chunhua doesn't know the sinister officialdom, you don't understand reason, you gave money, let her go to the yamen to fight a lawsuit, and brought it back to the Hou Mansion, things will be different." If we don't deal with it, what do the people of the world think of our Weining Hou Mansion? But if you want to deal with it, this matter is extremely complicated, this Liu Mansion dares to openly rob people, it must have a big background, maybe it can cover the sky with one hand, and we have to put pressure through the King of Han and King Zhao, in that way, we will be closer to the King of Han, and the prince is far away from the court, how many people are staring at it, if we are not careful, our whole family will have to pay for it. ”

Qiu Yue knew that she had done something wrong, so she lowered her head and listened to the young lady's lecture.

Chen Yuan was relieved on the side: "Madam, forget it, they are also kind and helpful, this kind of thing, anyone who encounters it has to help." ”

Jian Yixuan spared her maid at this time, frowned and said: "Xianggong, I came to Jiaodong, and I have a general understanding of it, the gentry officials, the big families surnamed Liu have more than 100 households, but after the previous rectification in Shandong, many people do not have the courage to do nonsense, if you dare to do things, others dare not question it, I am afraid, only that family." ”

Chen Yuan's heart jumped: "You mean, Scholar Liu?" The world calls him a great good man, and he has been an official for decades, full of poetry and books, and a scholarly family, so he will not be so lawless. ”

Jian Yixuan glanced at Xianggong and said quietly: "Great good man, Xianggong, do you believe it?" ”

Great good people, many good people do good deeds on the basis of strong family property, where do the abundant funds come from, in ancient times, basically rely on illegal income, or tax evasion, or corruption and bribery, or smuggling prohibited items, or domineering business. Chen Yuan shook his head with a wry smile: "Liu Guanzhishi has only been two years, but he wants to be windy and rainy in Shandong, and the key is to be praised by the world, no matter how you look at it, I can't believe it." ”

Chen Yuan joked: "What's the matter, Yi Xuan, if it's Liu Guan, you're scared?" You used to have a great sense of justice. ”

Jian Yixuan thought that she wanted to help the world before, but after getting married, Xianggong was out on the expedition, and she only wanted Xianggong to return safely.

The young woman in the boudoir didn't know how to worry, and she made up on the green building in spring. Suddenly, I saw a strange willow color, and the penitent husband was looking for a marquis. I used to read this poem and thought it was ridiculous, men should have the world in their minds, and make contributions, but then they felt real, the torment of waiting, and found more just hope for fairness and peace. If there is no small family, where will the country come from.

Jian Yixuan sighed: "Xianggong, what the world is, in fact, it is nothing, the high places are unbearable, and we are enemies everywhere." When my uncle had an accident, we were all worried for a long time, and the blessings and disasters were unpredictable, but it was better to be healthy and safe. If we are enemies with Liu Guan, in the whole of Shandong, we will be alone and very dangerous. ”

Chen Yuan smiled, hugged her gently, and said softly: "Don't worry, I also hope that everyone is safe and sound, and I will definitely protect everyone's safety." ”

"What about Granny Li, what is Xianggong going to do?"

"Since you see it, you can't ignore it, otherwise, you can't get over it with your conscience for the rest of your life, and now I don't know if it's Liu Guan, they rob people in the middle of the night, this kind of thing can't be without clues, let's take a look at the situation first, maybe it's an ordinary small household, if it's Liu Guan, let's take an idea."
