Chapter 31: Something Happened

"Where is the Confucian cultivator?" Fang Wenxuan asked in a deep voice.

Guo Xiande pointed at Lu Yanqing unhurriedly, "He is a Confucian cultivator." ”

Fang Wenxuan looked in the direction of Guo Xiande's finger, and saw Lu Yanqing bowing his hand slightly towards him.

"What? He is actually a Confucian cultivator?! ”

When Fang Rui heard this, he showed a look of disbelief, he was obviously just a small catcher, how could it be a Confucian cultivator?

"Why, is he a Confucian cultivator, does he still want to tell you?" Guo Xiande asked rhetorically.

Fang Rui was dumbfounded, no wonder this person's poetry talent was so good, it turned out that he was actually a Confucian cultivator! This young Confucian cultivator was the first time he had seen him, and he knew that he was like this, so why provoke him.

"My lord, there is no basis for what I say, can you let this Confucian cultivator show me some Confucianism?"

This Fang Wenxuan has been galloping in the business world for many years, and he can be regarded as an old man, he doesn't believe that a little catcher can become a Confucian cultivator at such an age.

As the saying goes: seeing is believing, hearing is false.

It's better to verify this kind of thing, if this catch is really a Confucian cultivation, then it's better to make friends with it as soon as possible, and this son will become a climate in the future!

"Okay, Yanqing, then you can use Confucianism again, and let Master Fang interrogate his habitual son."

Hearing this, Fang Wenxuan's face showed embarrassment, Lu Yanqing nodded slightly in response, and then performed Confucianism again: "Sincerity, gold and stone are open." ”

When the words fell, Lu Yanqing made a gesture of invitation to Fang Wenxuan, signaling that Fang Wenxuan could question Fang Rui.

Fang Wenxuan looked at Fang Rui and asked in a deep voice with a pale face, "Can you plead guilty?" ”

Fang Rui didn't dare to speak, he was afraid that he would tell the truth uncontrollably like just now.

Knowing his son Mo Ruo's father, seeing Fang Rui's embarrassed face and being silent, Fang Wenxuan already knew the answer, it seemed that his son had indeed done some bad deeds.

"Speak!" Fang Wenxuan spoke again, the annoyance in his tone was self-evident.

"Dad, the child knows it's wrong, and the child knows it's wrong."

Fang Rui suddenly froze, knelt directly in front of Fang Wenxuan, and admitted his mistake with tears.

Fang Wenxuan took a deep breath and forced himself to calm down, the reason why Fang Rui came to this point was inseparable from his negligence in discipline, Fang Wenxuan was very self-blaming in his heart.

After half a ring, Fang Wenxuan kicked Fang Rui to the ground, and then arched his hand towards Guo Xiande in the high hall: "My lord, my son has committed such a bad deed, and I, as a father, will not escape the blame, and I will definitely discipline him strictly after I go back." ”

Hearing this, Guo Xiande couldn't help but narrow his eyes, "Oh, Brother Wenxuan, what do you mean by this?" ”

"My lord, then I will make it clear, I want to have a private affair with this little brother."

Fang Wenxuan said bluntly, this is a legal act in the law of Da Chu.

In a case like this, where the crime is not punishable by death, the offender can choose to have a private affair with the victim.

Guo Xiande, as a county magistrate, naturally couldn't make decisions for Lu Yanqing, so he asked Lu Yanqing: "Yanqing, what do you think?" ”

"This ......" Hearing this, Lu Yanqing's face showed a tangled expression, and then asked: "Master Fang, why is it a private law?" ”

"Our Fang family has nothing else, but the silver is still accompanied; Since you are not harmed, why don't you raise your hand and let my family Fang Rui go? ”

Fang Wenxuan was obviously arrogant when he said this, and it was not an attitude of asking for people at all.

Seeing this, Lu Yanqing grinned, "Master Fang, what if I don't want to raise my noble hand?" ”

As soon as these words came out, Fang Wenxuan couldn't help frowning.

He originally wanted to use the silver to make Lu Yanqing obedient, so he spoke a little arrogantly, but he didn't expect this kid's mind to be so stable, he didn't eat his own set at all, and his bastard son lost unjustly.

Before Fang Wenxuan could speak, Fang Rui on the side shouted, "My uncle is the secretary of the Criminal Department, I advise you not to know what to do." ”

Facing Fang Rui's sudden threat, Lu Yanqing was slightly stunned, and then said to Guo Xiande: "My lord, you have heard it, if something happens to me one day, I must thoroughly investigate the book of the Criminal Department." ”

actually threatened others in the court, Guo Xiande's face suddenly became gloomy, this is simply a kingless law, extremely arrogant.

"Come on, reward him with twenty boards!"

With Guo Xiande's order, all the officials lined up on both sides with sticks surrounded one after another.

Seeing this, Fang Rui was immediately discouraged, and hurriedly hid behind Fang Wenxuan, "Dad, they want to beat me, you can't sit idly by!" ”

But at this time, Fang Wenxuan had been blown up by his uncompetitive son, so he let the official press Fang Rui to the ground, "It seems that I am too watering you, and today I will borrow the hand of Master Guo to let you have a long memory." ”

As he spoke, Fang Wenxuan turned his back and no longer looked at the tragic situation of Fang Rui being beaten, and then Fang Rui's screams resounded in the lobby.

In a short time, the 20 boards were finished.

Fang Rui has suffered this kind of sin since he was a child, lying on the ground and wailing constantly, and he still has snot and tears, looking very pitiful.

Although Fang Wenxuan was ruthless, this was also Fang Rui's lack of discipline as a last resort, and being exposed to these twenty boards might be able to change his stubborn temperament.

My son was beaten, how could I not feel distressed as Lao Tzu?

But this is not the time to feel distressed, you must understand the case first, otherwise there will be eighty boards waiting for your son.

If these eighty boards really hit his son, I am afraid that he will lose half his life, and these twenty boards are already very light in comparison.

"Rebel, do you know it's wrong?"

Fang Wenxuan pretended to be annoyed and asked angrily.

Fang Rui didn't dare to admit it, and nodded again and again: "The child knows that he is wrong, and the child will not dare to talk nonsense anymore." ”

Hearing this, Fang Wenxuan looked at Lu Yanqing, and said slightly: "This little brother, my family Rui Er and his board were beaten, and he admitted his mistake, and I ask you to raise your noble hand and let my family Fang'er go, there is really no need to make such a stalemate; ”

"My family is willing to give you thirty taels of silver as compensation, and at the same time promise that they will not trouble you, what do you think, little brother?"

Although Fang Wenxuan's tone this time was not respectful, it at least seemed to be discussing things.

Lu Yanqing didn't want to make this matter to the point of inextricability, which was not beneficial to both parties.

But since it was the Fang family who begged him to raise his noble hand, Lu Yanqing's posture was naturally higher, so he said, "What? Only thirty taels of silver? Do you know that if I don't have the means to protect myself, I will most likely be stripped of my limbs or even lost my life by your son! If the Fang family is so insincere, then we have to talk about it again. ”

As he spoke, Lu Yanqing hugged his arms and turned sideways, his face full of impatience.

Fang Wenxuan knew that he was at a loss, and Lu Yanqing's meaning was that he didn't give enough, so he raised the price and said, "Fifty taels, fifty taels is always okay, right?" ”

"Huh?" Lu Yanqing smiled disdainfully, "Fifty taels? Even if a big board is worth one tael, then eighty big boards will cost eighty taels, right? If Master Fang only gives fifty taels, then let the noble son be subjected to thirty boards. ”

Hearing this, Fang Rui, who was lying on the ground, suddenly couldn't hold back, and pulled Fang Wenxuan's trouser leg and cried: "Dad, isn't it just eighty taels of silver, you can give it to him, the thirty-year-old child will die." ”

Fang Wenxuan glared at this Lu Yanqing, but looking at Lu Yanqing's indifferent look, he finally chose to compromise: "Okay, I'll give you eighty taels, little brother, your appetite is really big enough!" ”

Lu Yanqing smiled disapprethoughtly when he heard this, and arched his hand towards Fang Wenxuan: "Master Fang has won the award, the kid's appetite is big, you can eat it if you give more kids, it's a pity that your young master can't stand the board." ”

Provocation, this is a naked provocation!

Although Fang Wenxuan was annoyed, he was helpless against Lu Yanqing, so he could only snort coldly and then took out eighty taels of silver tickets from his arms and slapped them in Lu Yanqing's hand.

Lu Yanqing was immediately overjoyed, and hurriedly thanked: "Thank you Master Fang for your generosity, Master Fang is really generous!" ”

And the onlookers on the side showed envy on their faces, just being surrounded for a while, they earned eighty taels of silver with white wolf blood in empty gloves, which made everyone regret why it was not themselves who were besieged? With these eighty taels of silver, saving money is enough to live a few years in style.

Fang Wenxuan was choked with anger, and after snorting coldly, he helped Fang Rui up from the ground and walked slowly towards the outside of the county office.

After seeing Fang Wenxuan leave, Lu Yanqing raised the silver ticket in his hand and shouted: "Today at noon, HSBC Restaurant, invite all colleagues to gather, I, Lu Yanqing, have a treat!" ”

As soon as these words came out, everyone immediately cheered, this kid can handle it, he is really willing to spend money.

"All my colleagues worked hard last night, it's still early, you can go and rest first, and I'll call you after I order the food and drink."

"Good!" Everyone agreed.

At this moment, Guo Xiande, who was sitting in the hall, spoke: "Then let's take a break this afternoon, if there is no important case tomorrow, then take a day off." ”

"My lord, are you going or not?" Lu Yanqing asked loudly.

"Me? I'm not going. As a county magistrate, how can I go with you to spend time and drink, I still have to pay attention to some influences. ”

Although it was Lu Yanqing who invited guests, in order to establish his image in the county, Guo Xiande still decided not to go.

Since this is the case, Lu Yanqing did not force it.

Everyone went to rest first, and Lu Yanqing went to buy wine and food non-stop.

Although HSBC Restaurant is not the best restaurant in the county, because of its affordable price and good taste, it is loved by the people in the city.

There are more than 30 officials in the county government plus large and small officials, and they have to buy three tables, and each table also needs 12 dishes, and the cost is about 20 taels of silver, which is completely within the scope of Lu Yanqing's deliberate acceptance.

Although Lu Yanqing is rich now, the money can only be spent less and less, so making money cannot be delayed.

There is actually another reason why Yu Zhuqi wants to make money, that is, if Wu Xiu wants to improve along the way, it is inevitable to buy some heavenly and earthly treasures to supplement himself, so money must be earned......
