Chapter XVII
The sky is slightly white, the sun is rising, and the sky has dawned. Last night Wen Ye didn't have a soothing incense in the house, she didn't sleep very peacefully, and the days of running made her a little tired, she put on her clothes and mask, and went to the room with a clear sky.
"Ming'er, did you keep watch all night?"
Wen Ye pushed down the Ming guard who was dozing off against the door frame, his red eyes obviously stayed up all night, and he was really sleepy right now. Seeing Wen Ye coming, the Ming guard cheered up and replied to her words.
"Back to Miss, the young master woke up at night, but he didn't say anything, and he drove me out because of my noise."
Wen Ye pursed her lips and smiled, she could think of Qingtian's expression at that time, she must have been very beautiful when she opened her eyes and saw the evening light guarding him, and when she looked up and saw the Ming guard, she must have been extremely disgusted.
"Evening light?"
"Sister Wanzhao has been guarding the room, and she went to the kitchen to boil medicine in the morning."
Guard Ming rubbed his eyes, he was young when he was sleepy, and he didn't sleep much in the past few days, Wen Ye was a little distressed when he saw it.
"Go back to your room and sleep, and I'll explain what you do at night."
Bixiao was busy all night, early in the morning to see the clear sky, the guard at the door said that he had woken up last night, that is, it was no big deal, but she didn't see it with her own eyes, she was still a little worried. In the past three years, as the leader of the "Banshan Pavilion", she has often gone to various places to solve tricky matters for the Holy Lord, eradicating treacherous and evil ministers, and she has a lot of injuries on her body, and she doesn't care too much.
Although Qingtian has good skills and has the strength to protect his body, Bixiao never let him interfere in something too dangerous. This time it was about the private weapon with the intention of rebellion, Wen Ye personally allowed Qingtian to follow, but he didn't expect that she didn't protect it for a while or let him get hurt.
"Sister, what time is it?"
When Bi Xiao pushed the door in, the clear sky had gradually woken up, he opened his eyes slightly and slowly got up to get out of bed, and when Bi Xiao saw this, he hurriedly asked him to lie down.
"At the beginning of the morning, you are not allowed to get out of bed, just lie down and rest today, and I will see your injuries."
Bi Xiao said and held his wrist, Qing Tian shook it down vigorously to break free, Bi Xiao thought he was shyly smiling slightly.
"Don't move."
Qingkong struggled again, and her chest began to ache, so she had to lie down obediently and let her take her pulse. Bi Xiao stretched out his hand to check his pulse, and the expression on his face suddenly became complicated, with doubts and puzzles in his astonishment.
"What's wrong with your injuries?"
"I accidentally injured the assassin."
After Qingkong finished speaking, he turned his face away, and Wanzhao knew that he would never lie, and there must be something else hidden in yesterday's events.
"You tell my sister the truth, why did the evening photo hurt you? Don't think I don't understand the internal skills of the family. ”
A trace of guilt flashed in Qingtian's eyes, Xiang's heart method has always been passed on to men and not to women, although Tourmaline is the eldest sister, she is not qualified to practice Xiangjia's unique internal skills, and Qingkong has practiced martial arts since he was a child, and he also secretly passed on some evening photos, but he didn't expect Bixiao to see it.
"I'm sorry, I shouldn't have hidden it from you."
"You don't have to apologize, I've long looked down on the mental matter, but how could she hurt you?"
Bixiao covered the quilt for the clear sky, seeing that his face was pale and weak, and he was somewhat angry with the evening light.
"It's nothing, I did something that she misunderstood."
Qingkong knew that Bixiao would definitely blame her, but his actions yesterday were indeed selfish, so he would cause her to be dissatisfied and accidentally hurt himself, and the two had solved the misunderstanding last night.
"Tell me first, and I'll see if I want to settle accounts with her."
Seeing that he was so nervous, Bi Xiao sighed in her heart, these two people really didn't make people worry, I thought that some master had injured him, causing her and the guards to be on guard all night.
Wanzhao knocked on Wen Ye's door with breakfast, and saw that no one answered and gently pushed it open, and the room was empty.
"Master!"
Wanzhao strode out of the door, Wen Ye just walked towards her, saw her look flustered, stepped forward and asked.
"I'm here, what's wrong?"
"I'm worried about you, you must bring more people when you go out."
Wan Zhao remembered yesterday's killers, although their martial arts were weaker, they were ruthless and well-trained, which made people have to guard against it.
"Don't worry, you haven't slept all night, go and rest."
"I'm not tired, I'll accompany you to breakfast."
The two of them entered the room and sat at the table, her expression was a little softened, she took care of the clear sky for a night, although she was slightly tired but her face was ruddy, and her condition looked good.
"Here, I'll have someone buy it on the street."
Wen Ye handed over the paper bag in his hand, took it and opened it, and it was a whole roast chicken inside. In such a barren place as Youzhou, this roast chicken is a rare delicacy, and only the only restaurant in the city can sell it, and the price is naturally not low.
"The master is so good, it's enough for me to eat a chicken leg."
Wan Zhao broke off the chicken leg and stuffed it into Wen Ye's hand, and then broke off another one and put it in his mouth, looking satisfied.
"Everyone has it, don't let it, Ming'er's roast chicken is all in the stomach."
Wen Ye took a small bite of the chicken thigh, it tasted good, and it was the most delicious thing he had eaten since leaving Beijing.
"It's nice to be a master."
Looking at the unsightly eating appearance of the evening sun, Wen Ye smiled happily, they naturally couldn't be treated badly when they were running around for themselves. The more money the Wen family has earned in the past three years, the more generous Wen Ye has been to them, in addition to each person's monthly money, she also issued special waist cards for the guards of the "Banshan Pavilion", and the Wen family's property is free for them to spend.
"Master, I want to explain something to you, you are not allowed to murder me."
After finishing nibbling on the chicken leg in his hand, Wanzhao lowered his chin and waited for Wen Ye's reply. Wen Ye glanced at her, it was really strange that this girl actually spoke so twistedly.
"Say, I'm not mad at you."
"Yesterday the clear sky was not injured by a killer, he thought he wanted to kiss me, so he ......"
Wen Ye's eyes widened, his golden brown eyes shone brightly, and his face was incredulous.
"Huh? Would Clear Sky be so rude? ”
Tourmaline put down the hand that was about to push the door, stood outside the door and listened carefully to the conversation between the two.
"It's true that I misunderstood him, and I wounded him. At that time, I didn't think much about it, the palm was quite heavy, and it hit his chest all of a sudden, I really didn't want to use internal force, but somehow, the power in my heart was out of control. ”
The evening light was compared to the comparison, which made Wen Ye cry and laugh.
"So you hit the wound you were injured yesterday in the clear sky?"
"Well, I really regret that I didn't have the face to see him."
Wen Ye suddenly breathed a sigh of relief, no wonder Qingtian woke up and didn't say anything, she should be afraid that Bixiao would punish her. A master like Clear Sky can't hurt him, Wen Ye even suspected that there was a peerless master in Youzhou, but she didn't expect it to be a late sun, which made her worry all night.
"Wanzhao, it's really your fault in this matter. Don't blame yourself too much, he didn't tell you in advance, it's normal that you misunderstood, apologize to him, and he will forgive you. ”
Wanzhao nodded heavily, slightly shyly with his hands behind his back, and slowly rubbed it one by one.
"I stayed with him all night last night, and when he woke up in the middle of the night, I apologized, and moreover, I compensated him for ......"
Bixiao hid outside the door and opened her eyes wide, there was something wrong last night, and Qingtian didn't tell her just now.
"Chief, the secret guard has sent a message, and Lord Zhizhou Yan has an invitation over there."
"Okay, got it."
Bi Xiao looked back at the hidden door, and was entangled in her heart, but she still went to the backyard with the guards to arrange manpower, and the two people in the house continued to whisper.
"Compensation?"
"Well, he's forgiven me."
This kind of evening photo, Wen Ye is the first time to see it, with a little sweetness in her shyness, it seems that she is really moved by the clear sky.
"You kissed him?"
"How does the master know?"
Wen Ye pursed his lips helplessly, the whole thing was written on his face, and it was not difficult to guess at all.
"I just kissed him on the face, and I was injured and didn't catch anything, so thank you!"
After Wanzhao finished speaking, he continued to eat roast chicken, and said that the things in his heart were clean, but he ate more fragrant than before. Wen Ye saw that she looked heartless again, and shook her head helplessly, I hope this girl is really enlightened.
The state government of Youzhou City is located in the north of the city, and the house of the general judge is located on the west side of the main street in the north of the city. Today, Yuan Tong, who was supposed to be Xiu Mu, was "invited" to the state office by the newly appointed Lord Zhizhou. Yan Qing sat in the hall wearing the official uniform of Wupin Zhizhou, and the catchers hit the ground with sticks to make a loud sound, and their mouths made a "mighty" shocking sound.
"Lord Zhizhou, what does this mean?"
Yuan Tong was drunk last night, and his hangover did not disappear this morning, and he was pulled out of the bed, and now he was dragged to the state government and was confused for a while.
"Prisoner Yuan, don't kneel down yet!"
Yamen is a majestic and sacred place, Yanqing will never allow anyone to despise it, raise his hand to pick up the shocking wood and slap it, Yuan Tongju "plop" and kneel on the ground.
"Yuan Tong's sentence, you are guilty of withholding food from prison felons?"
The general judge is the governor of the state and county, in charge of grain transportation, family fields, water conservancy and litigation, and has the responsibility of supervising the governor, but now he has been caught by the new Yanzhizhou and asked the state government for questioning, which is really a big bustle in Youzhou City, and the people on the street have gathered around to see what is going on.
Yuan Tongju was stunned for a moment, and then returned to normal, he prostrate forward and said with a flattering face.
"Is the banquet too little?"
As soon as this remark came out, the onlookers shook their heads and prepared to leave, the Zhizhou of Youzhou has always been a nest of snakes and rats with the general judgment, it seems that the new Zhizhou appointed by the Holy Lord is no different, and the sky in Youzhou is still covered with black clouds and no light. Hearing the startling sound again, the two catchers quickly dragged Yuan Tong back with his arms, and Yan Qing said angrily.
"If this official is greedy for these two hundred taels of unintended wealth, what kind of face will he have to face the grace of the Holy Being? Someone, this person intends to bribe the imperial court officials, and the rod will be punished by the twenty boards! ”
Yuan Tongju was beaten and screamed, he was sentenced to be a general judge for more than ten years, and it was the first time he met such a soft and hard master.
"My lord, this is making a big fuss, all previous adults have done this, this is a convention, who doesn't know that being an official in Youzhou is a chore, and you don't deduct where the oil and water come from."
Yan Qingqi is extremely angry, it seems that this Yuan Tong's judgment is really stubborn, and Youzhou was ruined by these people.
"The previous lords have checked whether they have deducted their own officials, and now you are greedy for official silver, causing more than ten prisoners in the prison to starve to death and freeze to death, and treat human life like a mustard!"
"My lord, those felons will die sooner or later, what's wrong with deducting something?"
"Is that a little called? The official sees that no amount of food can fatten your gluttonous heart, and the ironclad evidence is such that the official advises you to confess your guilt earlier, explain the whereabouts of the dirty silver, and the official can protect your relatives and relatives from the capital crime! ”
Yan Qing no longer argued with him, and directly asked people to present the evidence so that he would die. Yuan Tongju knew that the matter was a foregone conclusion, and collapsed weakly to the ground, crying silently.
"My lord, I was greedy for official money, but I didn't wait for the flowers to be stolen by others, and I don't know where it is?"
Yuan Tong's sentence is not that he doesn't want to return the dirty silver and beg for a reduction in the crime, but this batch of silver that has just arrived has long been gone, and it is extremely risky for him to steal from him, and he always orders his subordinates to be ready to return the dirty silver at any time, and now he doesn't know whose hands he planted in until he dies, and he is really angry and aggrieved.
"Then I have to ask your loyal Tian Zhutou, bring it!"
When Yuan Tong heard who the prisoner was, he was so angry that he vomited blood on the spot, Yan Qing smiled contemptuously, this "black eats black" drama is really exciting, and it took him a lot of effort to find out about this matter.
