Chapter 188: Nosy!
As soon as these words came out, everyone fell silent.
Who is so full and willing to take on such a thankless task.
If the protection is not good, it is a direct contradiction between countries, and if it is properly protected, it will offend the prince!
In the spacious and airy room, only the firewood in the stove crackled.
After a long time, seeing that no one answered, Huang Shouren turned his head to look at Liu Mo, "Lord Liu, are you willing to take on this burden?" β
Good guy, call me by name, huh?
Without waiting for Liu Mo to speak, He Ruda showed a smile and took over the conversation, "It's only appropriate to leave this matter to Lord Liu." Xia Guan heard that Gao Qi's butchers all died at the hands of Lord Liu, and Lord Liu's martial arts must be extremely strong! β
Liu Mo raised his head suddenly, and then looked at the two of them.
I'm a mud horse! Your expression, this singing and harmony, you have discussed it from the beginning, right?
So here's the problem, I haven't been appointed yet, and now I'm still the magistrate of Jianglin Mansion!
Thinking of this, Liu Mo immediately said, "Elder Huang Ge, the next official is the imperial history of Jianglin Yanyun!" β
Although it seems a foregone conclusion to become a Beijing official, Huang Shouren will definitely not say it in advance in front of everyone, so he replied, "Haha, this official almost forgot this." Rude, rude! This matter will be discussed at a later date. β
Good guy, if I refuse, I'll talk about it again? This is a thing, I have to come, isn't it!
What do I do to protect the Star Luo Envoy team? Rely on my half-bucket of water martial arts? Play me too!
Such a small episode made Liu Mo's mood depressed.
Before you know it, it's noon.
Like the ancient Qinglou on earth, in addition to some special services, Daxia Qinglou is a high-end place that integrates food, performances and bars.
And the reception of Liu Mo this time is the largest one in Jizhou, and these projects are naturally available.
Since it was a reception banquet, it was inevitable to eat and drink, so Huang Shouren made the east and put a few tables.
Halfway through the meal, Huang Shouren's men hurried over and whispered a few words in his ear.
After hearing this, Huang Shouren immediately frowned, and then got up and said, "This official has something important, so I will leave first, forgive me!" β
With that, he left with a gloomy face.
It seems that the eldest prince's faction is doing something again, Liu Mo thought to himself.
There's nothing to do when you go back, so it's better to stay and eat, drink, and kill time, and it's not me who pays for it anyway.
After the end of the thirties, the officials began to brag about how beautiful their daughter-in-law was and how good their driving skills were.
"Hey, men are lustful and love to brag is unavoidable by any class!" Liu Mo thought to himself.
As I heard it, there was a cry and a quarrel downstairs.
The room was full of the "upper class" of the Great Xia Dynasty, who wanted to be disturbed so much, and one of the anxious officials threw all the dishes on the floor.
When the old bustard heard this, he hurriedly came up to see it, and saw that he was angry. Ben immediately apologized with a smiling face: "Disturb your lords, and hope to calm your anger, Haihan." β
"What's going on?" He Ru asked.
"This is a woman who is crying. Her husband had a dispute with Ji Ye of Jizhou. β
"Ji Ye? FiancΓ©s? "Everyone was amazed." Send them away, dare to disturb our interest and seal your shop! β
"Yes, yes, yes!"; The old bustard agreed again and again.
Just as the old bustard turned to leave, Liu Mo stopped her, "Mom Zhang, slow down, take the official to have a look!" β
There are melons to eat, which is much more fragrant than listening to these old P bragging here, and you can't miss it!
The officials bragged that they were at a high crestad, but they did not keep it.
He followed the bustard and went downstairs.
I saw a woman of eighteen or nineteen years old standing in the middle of a man in his early twenties in the hall downstairs. Opposite them, a tall, thin middle-aged man led several of his men to shout at the two of them with bad intentions.
It looks like the young fiancΓ© himself is bullying.
The most can't be bullied, this idle matter must be taken care of by him!
However, just like the Douyin brushed on the earth, without knowing the cause and effect, Liu Mo naturally will not jump to conclusions.
Everything had to be clear about the situation so as not to do something wrong, so he asked the bustard to pull away from the crowd and ask him what was going on.
After a while, the crowd of onlookers gave way. Liu Mo stepped forward and looked at the woman, although she did not have a very good look, she also had some moving colors, wiped her tears, and the two of them said good luck to Liu Mo.
Liu Mo asked, "Why are you arguing?" β
The man said, "My lord, let me tell you." My youngest surname is Jin, and the husband and wife are from Shuzhong, because they came to Jizhou with their father to join their relatives and did not want to move elsewhere.
My father unfortunately contracted an illness and ran out of entanglements. During this period, he was recommended by the inn junior and borrowed fifty taels of silver from this Ji Ye, but his father's life was thin, and he died of illness after all.
However, the borrowed silver was less than a month, and Ji Ye chased the silver he owed. I didn't know the place well, and I couldn't argue with him, so I paid off the ancestral jade pendant to pay off the debt. β
Before the man surnamed Jin finished speaking, the man surnamed Ji rudely interrupted, "This jade pendant is obviously mine, how can it be your ancestor." You don't pay back the money you owe, and you steal my jade pendant to pay off the debt? β
"It's obviously my ancestral jade pendant, you... You don't want to wronged good people! β
"Humph! I don't have a war of words with you. Either pay back the money today, or sell this little lady to pay off the debt! β
Hearing this, Liu Mo understood the roughly.
Holding back his emotions, he turned his head to look at the person surnamed Ji, "You said that this jade pendant is yes, but there is a certificate?" β
The surnamed Ji sneered, "What proof does he have?" β
Yo, I'm pretty good at playing tricks!
The man surnamed Jin frowned, "The certificate is small, but this jade pendant has a small indentation." β
"Oh? Where is the jade pendant? β
"At his place!" The man surnamed Kim pointed at the other party.
The man surnamed Ji said with a smile, "What can this prove alone?" Also, who are you who dare to take care of your master's affairs? β
"Who am I?" Liu Mo smiled coldly, then walked outside the gate and shouted at the top of his voice, "Where is Yu Linwei?" β
In the next second, the royal family Yu Lin Wei, who was responsible for "protecting" him, immediately appeared in front of him. "Lord Liu, what's the matter?"
"If you encounter some trouble, I need you to introduce me to this Ji Ye, who am I!" Liu Mo said as he pointed to the person surnamed Ji.
Seeing this, the man surnamed Ji was so frightened that his face was like ashes. The "adult" who is protected by the royal family Yu Linwei must be a relative of the emperor, how can he offend.
"Plop!" With a sound, the person surnamed Ji hurriedly knelt down, "Lord Liu, please forgive the little one for not knowing Mount Tai!" β
Liu Mo snorted coldly, "Can I take care of this?" β
"Yes, yes, naturally can!"
"Hmph, then don't you hand over the jade pendant to me!" Liu Mo said sharply.
The person surnamed Ji didn't dare to slack off, so he hurriedly took out the jade pendant from his arms and handed it over.
When he took the jade pendant, Liu Mo clearly saw the eyes of the person surnamed Ji, as if to say, what about the emperor's relatives and relatives, I don't believe that you dare to use your identity to suppress me in front of so many people.
Seeing this, Liu Mo sighed, "It's really a good piece of jade," he said, "Both of you say that the jade pendant is your own, but you don't have any evidence, it's really difficult to judge." β
Hearing this, everyone began to talk about it, and the surnamed Ji even glanced at him several times with the eyes of a joke.
Silently, Liu Mo continued, "I think so, it's better to split this jade pendant in half, one person and one half, to settle the dispute." β
"What," the man surnamed Kim cried.
