"How did this Li Shuixian and General Cheng get together?" Liu Hanshan asked.

Qin Ye patted his thigh and said, "Qiaobei! ”

After this Li Shuixian swam up from the river, she went to the county seat, and she originally intended to meet her father and find a way to rescue the old Li Tou from prison. Who knew that the drought in Dongze Township angered the Son of Heaven, and in order to find a few backers to protect himself from the disaster, the confused county ordered all the people in the prison to be beheaded, on the grounds that it was inciting the villagers, the disaster resistance was unfavorable, and the disaster relief money allocated by the imperial court was not good.

"I can still understand this instigation of the villagers, and the disaster resistance is not good, but what is the matter with the disaster relief silver that is not allocated by the imperial court? As far as I know, the amount of disaster relief silver allocated by the imperial court every time is hundreds of thousands of taels, which is something that a few villagers can be greedy for? No one asks about such a ridiculous charge? ”

"Do you really don't know or don't know?" Qin Ye said: "There are a lot of disaster relief silver allocated by the imperial court, from Beijing officials to state officials, from state officials to government officials, from government officials to county officials, from county officials to village officials, and then from village officials to those disaster victims, how much is left?" How can those who have stuffed money in their pockets want others to know where it has gone? All they want is a man who bears their sins, and as for where the money goes, there is no one in the world who knows better than them. ”

Qin Ye's words directly silenced Liu Hanshan.

Although he was bought as a county official, he has never done anything as a fish and meat villager since he took office, and in the words of his personal servant, their young master is not short of money, and he is not guilty of using the official position of a county official to seek those small profits. He is the young master of the Liu family who is rich in the world, and the Liu family can make money every day with any shop, and the speed at which he spends money is not as fast as the speed at which their family makes money, so he naturally can't commit corruption and bribery. But others are different, others are officials, either for fame or for profit, and only when they have fame and fortune can they become famous.

As the son of a businessman, although he looked down on those corrupt officials, he also understood why they were greedy.

Qin Ye was a wise and foolish person, he knew that this topic should not continue, and as soon as the conversation changed, he turned to Li Shuixian again.

This Li Shuixian escaped death, originally wanted to save his father's life, but he caught up with his father and was beheaded on the street.

Li Shuixian knew that her father was wronged, and this tenacious little girl actually had the heart to go to Beijing to sue the emperor. But she only left Anping County on the front foot, and fell ill on the back foot, and then met the bandits, and on the way back to the cottage by the bandits, she met the general Cheng Huaien, who returned to Beijing to report on her work, and was rescued by General Cheng.

Heroes will naturally have a story to tell about saving beauty, and this beauty is still Li Shuixian, who has a father's enmity. Although she didn't know what the word general meant, she could see that this general was extremely majestic and pompous. Mo said that it was just a county official, and even those big officials in the capital had to nod their heads when they saw him. She is not stupid, she has thought about the matter of suing the emperor before and after, and after thinking about it, she still thinks that it is easier to take down Cheng Bad En and be the general's wife.

Once this beauty is in his heart, the hero will inevitably escape the gentle township carefully woven by the beauty. Soon after Cheng Baden entered Beijing, he asked the emperor for a decree and asked the emperor to marry him and Li Shuixian on the grounds that he had a baby in his hometown.

"The emperor has approved it?"

"Accurate!" Qin Ye said: "This Cheng Bad Grace was originally born in a reckless manner, and his style of acting is different from those children of the family, which is also one of the reasons why the emperor liked him more." For a person like him, it is not strange to have a daughter-in-law at home, besides, he likes it himself, and the emperor is happy to fulfill it. In this way, Li Shuixian became the wife of General Cheng. ”

"There is no excuse for the crime you want to add, that Xue County Order was framed by Li Shuixian."

"My lord is right, that Xue County Commander was framed by her, and she instigated General Cheng to plan all this." Qin Ye said: "Of course, that foolish county commander is not a good person, but all the crimes he has committed are not worth a collaborator and traitor." Just four words cost the lives of his family, and also involved those relatives who were related to him. The number of those who were confiscated and distributed to the army and relegated to slavery is innumerable. ”

"And then?" Liu Hanshan pondered the record on the dossier, and did not seem to mention it.

"The case was turned over by one of General Cheng's opponents, and it was his cronies who betrayed General Cheng." Qin Ye sighed: "General Cheng stopped all the charges, saying that he volunteered to avenge his wife, and said that his wife didn't know about these things at all. He acted recklessly, but he seemed to be able to do these things. The first emperor couldn't excuse him, but for the sake of his past military exploits, he punished him to the bitter cold land of Mobei. Li Shuixian volunteered to follow her husband and also followed General Cheng. ”

Speaking of this, Qin Ye deliberately added: "It is said that General Cheng gave her a letter of resignation in order to protect her, but this woman admitted death, took the letter of resignation, and went to Mobei with him regardless of it." It is said that they gave birth to a child in Mobei, and according to the calculation of time, there should be twelve or thirteen years old. ”

"I can't imagine that there is such a story behind this dragon king's bride."

"It's not just a story." Qin Ye said: "I don't know if it's because of this Li Shuixian's escape, the drought in Dongze Township has not been solved, but it has become more and more serious." When those villagers saw this, they even presented a second bride to the dragon king. This sacrifice of two brides has also become the only exception in the history of Dongze Township. Guess who this second bride is? ”

"Who is it?"

"It's the daughter of the village chief who framed Lao Litou." Qin Ye said: "Her name is Qin Xiaodie, and it is said that her name is derived from a birthmark on her shoulder. Because she likes butterflies, the village chief also specially created a jade butterfly for her, and the jade butterfly hung around her neck when she sank into the river. ”

Qin Ye said, taking out the jade butterfly that Nan Jinyi gave him: "That jade butterfly is exactly the same as the one in the hands of his subordinates." ”

Liu Hanshan stared at Qin Ye and didn't speak.

Qin Ye bowed slightly, and said with a dry smile: "Don't look at me like that, my lord, I admit that I have something to do with that Qin Xiaodie." It is difficult to write two Qin characters in this pen, and our two families are relatives. According to the seniority of our Qin family, my father should call her cousin, she is my cousin, if she is still alive, she will be almost forty. ”

"You don't have to beat around the bush, just say whatever you want." Liu Hanshan pinched the corners of his forehead and closed the file in his hand.

"The bride case in Dongze Township is somewhat involved with my cousin." Qin Ye put the jade butterfly on the saddle: "My aunt is different from other girls, she doesn't like to dress up, she doesn't like to be popular, she likes to fiddle with those things that are on the sidelines." As early as when she was seven years old, she told my cousin that she would definitely be sacrificed to the Dragon Lord in the future. She also said that if she was sacrificed, she would definitely bring enough of the girl to marry her. There were seventeen brides with jade butterflies found in Dongze Township, and my cousin said that she would bring enough of them to eighteen. ”

Qin Ye stumbled as he spoke: "Tomorrow is my aunt's death day, and tomorrow at noon, there will be a bride with a jade butterfly to marry from Dongze Township." ”
