Xu Jinrou ordered the carriage to stop far away and then asked Fang Ruo to find out what was going on, not to alarm Ang Li first.

Soon Fang Ruo came back to report that Gu Qingqing, the weaver girl, confronted some people at the gate of the brocade factory, and these people wanted the brocade factory to hand over Li An, saying that he had committed adultery with a married woman, and the woman who said that he had committed adultery was crying in the middle of the crowd, and Li An was not in the crowd.

Nowadays, there are few young and middle-aged men in Dachu, and there are many single women who stay in Dachu, and there are more and more romantic affairs between men from the West Barbarians and women in Da Chu, which is also the result that the West Barbarians want to see.

Of course, Ximan also allows the women of Dachu to settle in Xiban with their husbands, but in this way, the population of Dachu will become smaller and smaller, and slowly Dachu and Ximan will be completely integrated from bloodline to personnel flow, and Dachu will also not perish.

Therefore, although this kind of adultery is also in charge of the city patrol department, it requires very clear evidence, and the adulterer must be caught in bed, and the punishment method is that the two parties negotiate to lose money.

A married woman should not be among the recruits of the brocade factory this time, but why did this woman come to the brocade factory to become a female worker?

Although she didn't see the appearance of the adulterous woman, Xu Jinrou believed that even if the woman was born beautiful, Ang Lee would not have anything to do with the woman.

Not only because of the flood of women in the brocade factory, even if Li An has a heart for flowers, there is no need to have an affair with a married woman, but also because he has lived in the previous life, Xu Jinrou knows Li An's character very well, he will never do such a reluctance to do such a thing, not to mention Gu Qingqing in the factory.

From the eyes of Ang Lee and Gu Qingqing looking at each other, Xu Jinrou can see the mutual appreciation between a man and a woman, she has lived a lifetime, and the unconcealable and deliberately suppressed feelings between men and women cannot hide her eyes.

Xu Jinrou can be sure that with Gu Qingqing here, no romance will happen to Ang Lee.

Cuiping Mountain is not particularly big, but it is not small, Xu Jinrou asked Fang Ruo to quietly call Li An to meet her by the fence in the remote part of the back mountain.

Gu Qingqing saw Fang Ruo, and motioned to the people guarding the door to let Fang Ruo enter the brocade factory, and the carriage stopped near a fence in the back mountain, and it didn't take long for Fang Ruo to rush over with Li An.

Seeing the princess standing outside the fence, Li An knelt on her knees, "Princess, my subordinates have disgraced you, but I am innocent with that woman, I was wronged, and she deliberately framed me." ”

Xu Jinrou frowned, "Why did you hide when you were wronged and framed?" Explain it clearly. ”

Li An looked helpless, "My subordinates have explained it, but they can't explain it clearly, because I almost started with those people, Gu Qingqing didn't let me show up for fear of a lawsuit if someone died." ”

Xu Jinrou bowed slightly, "Oh, what's going on?" Tell me more, don't kneel, get up and talk. ”

Ang Lee stood up and told what had happened.

According to Xu Jinrou's strategy, Li An recruited widows or divorced women to work in the brocade factory, and sure enough, the number of applicants increased, and the shortage of weavers was quickly solved.

Li An and Gu Qingqing plan to recruit the first batch of 50 workers, one is to consider the labor cost, and the other is to see how fast and slow these workers are after learning the brocade weaving technology, and how efficient they are, and then increase or decrease the manpower according to the situation.

When the fiftieth person was recruited, a woman came and said that she had a husband, but her husband went to Ximan, and her husband's family was in a village not far from Cuiping Mountain.

Last night, Li Ang inspected the factory as usual, and he saw a dark shadow sneaking around, so he quietly followed it and found that it was the last female worker who was recruited to secretly deliver a package out of the fence.

Li An immediately rushed over, dragged the package back to check, and found that it was all silk threads for brocade.

The woman knelt on the ground and begged, saying that her family was poor, with white hair and young children waiting to be fed, and asked Li An to let her go and not report to the official.

Li An saw that the woman was crying pitifully, since it was a first offense, there was no loss in the factory, so he did not make a noise to let the woman leave the brocade factory, and she was not allowed to come back in the future.

Unexpectedly, today this woman came to the door with a large group of relatives, saying that Li An had committed adultery with her and then abandoned her, and asked Li An to give an explanation to compensate for the loss of the woman's husband's family.

Li An was furious, went out to reason with these people, accused the woman of stealing silk and was expelled from the brocade factory, and now he is fabricating this kind of lie out of thin air, distorting the facts, and maliciously framing him.

But these villagers didn't listen to Li An's explanation at all, but said that Li An was a whore, and deliberately framed a weak woman, and the woman's crying was so sad and sad that these villagers were even more angry, and they wanted to rush into the factory to snatch the brocade as compensation, and instigated all the female workers in the factory to leave.

Li An knew that if this matter was reported to the official, it would inevitably cause a storm in the city, and no one would dare to come to work in Cuipingshan Brocade Factory in the future.

He was so angry that when he drew his knife and was about to make a move, Gu Qingqing came out with many female workers and blocked the door of the field, allowing Li An to avoid it for the time being.

Gu Qingqing told the villagers that if they wanted to enter the factory, they would step over her corpse, and when they saw such a tough woman, the villagers did not dare to rush for fear of causing a lawsuit, so the two parties confronted each other at the factory gate and accused each other of theories.

After listening to Li An's speech, Xu Jinrou pondered for a moment, the most important thing now is that this kind of affair between men and women cannot be proven, most women take care of their own reputation, and they can say it so openly, so others can't believe it.

Li An gritted his teeth, "Princess, my subordinates can't defend themselves and are willing to prove their innocence by death, so I'm going to wipe my neck in front of these people to see who they believe?" ”

Xu Jinrou's eyebrows rose slightly, and her expression became serious, "Death is as light as a feather, as heavy as Mount Tai, is it worth it to talk about life and death for such a trivial matter?" ”

Li An bowed his head, "My subordinates know that it's not worth it, but I really don't know how to wash away my grievances." ”

Xu Jinrou took a deep breath, "I want to ask you something, and you have to answer truthfully." ”

"What the princess asks, her subordinates will never deceive."

"Do you like Gu Qingqing, do you want to marry her?"

Li An was stunned for a moment, and then his face turned slightly red, "Subordinate... Don't dare to deceive, my subordinates do have this mind, but I don't know what her mind is, after all, I have a disability, so I have never said it. ”

The corners of Xu Jinrou's mouth rose slightly, "That's fine, you will soon know Gu Qingqing's thoughts, but you have to treat her well in the future, don't dislike her as a widow if you get it." ”

Li An looked stunned, "My subordinates can swear to heaven that they will never dislike her, I will love her and respect her in this life, and treat her as the treasure in my heart." ”

Fang Ruo on the side sneered, "I didn't expect to see you honest, but when you talk about love, you are so numb." ”

Li An blushed even more, "The subordinates are all up to the princess, but what does this have to do with the matter in front of you." ”

"I know your thoughts, go get pen and paper."

Hearing the princess say this, Li An was slightly stunned, but then turned around and quickly took a pen and paper.

Xu Jinrou immediately wrote a few words on the paper, folded them and handed them to Fang Ruo, asked her to quietly hand them over to Gu Qingqing, and then told Li An to watch the situation develop near the factory gate, and then come out to meet again.

Gu Qingqing has been single for a long time, although she is quiet and peaceful on weekdays, she is also the master who dares to make noise in order to protect herself when she encounters trouble.

In the face of the imposing villagers and the woman who was not said to have been bullied by Li An, Gu Qingqing did not show weakness, she firmly believed in her heart that Li An was wronged, and what Li An said was the truth.

Gu Qingqing, who is gentle and elegant on weekdays, has a pale face, and scolds a lot of swear words in such a short time, and confronts the unreasonable villagers.

At this time, she suddenly felt that someone had stuffed a note in her palm, and she turned her head to see Fang Ruo winking at her.

Gu Qingqing seemed to be tired of arguing, and took a few steps back, and the five weavers she had recruited stood in front of her very tacitly, continuing to quarrel with the villagers.

Gu Qingqing rubbed her hands seemingly inadvertently, and looked at the note in her palm that was unfolded by her,

There is a sentence written on it: If you want to calm the turmoil, you can marry Ang Lee, and settle the payment, Princess Xu Jinrou of Jin.

Gu Qingqing was stunned for a moment, then her cheeks were slightly red, and at this moment, a crisp female voice came from behind her, "Princess Jin has arrived." ”

All the people present were shocked, Qingluan helped Xu Jinrou and walked over unhurriedly, and the villagers and the female workers of the brocade factory all knelt on the ground to salute the princess.

We all know that it is because of the girl of Xu Shilang's family, Princess Xu Jinrou of Jin, that Da Chu and Xiban stopped the war, and there is no life in Kyoto City, and the people of Da Chu today will not necessarily kneel to the queen, but when they see Princess Xu, they must bow down.

Xu Jinrou's face was calm, "Everyone, please get up, I don't know why you have to gather in front of the brocade factory in the main palace to make a noise?" ”

"This brocade factory belongs to Princess Jin?"

"Haven't you heard of it before?"

"Is that whore the one who is the princess of Jin?"

"Don't talk nonsense, let Princess Jin call the shots for us..."

……

The villagers whispered, and an elderly couple buckled Xu Jinrou's head, "Princess Qiyu, my daughter-in-law was bullied by your steward in the brocade factory, and please uphold justice." ”

Xu Jinrou's expression was serious, "Oh, don't worry, two old men, please talk carefully." ”

It turned out that the only son of this old couple went to Ximan, leaving his daughter-in-law and three children in Dachu, but he didn't expect that after his son arrived in Ximan, he didn't hear from him, and he didn't know whether he was dead or alive.

I heard that Cuipingshan Brocade Factory recruited female workers, and the old couple asked their daughter-in-law to work in the factory, but after working for a few days, the daughter-in-law suddenly returned home late one night.

The old couple couldn't breathe a sigh, so they called the villagers to come over and ask for justice, since the incident happened, and they didn't ask for anything else, they just wanted the steward to compensate more money, but they didn't expect the steward to completely admit the account and let people come out and quarrel with them.

After listening to the old couple, Xu Jinrou understood in her heart that this family is living in a difficult situation, and it is clear that such a noisy family is here for money, and the daughter-in-law can not be ashamed to openly say that she was insulted by Li An, which should also be the meaning of the old couple, and it doesn't hurt to give them some money, but this reputation cannot be ruined in vain.

Xu Jinrou's eyes flashed with coldness, and she looked at Gu Qingqing, "Steward Gu, is your future husband such an unbearable person?" ”
