Volume 11 Chapter 104 The Eldest Lady's Revenge
Just when the chief catcher was a little unable to advance or retreat, a slender figure fell from the sky and landed on Li Xiaoyao's side, which was Lin Yueru who had returned.
Lin Yueru carried the burden in her hand and said to Li Xiaoyao: "Senior brother, that female snitch is too cunning, seeing that she can't get rid of me, she deliberately threw this burden into the river." ”
"I had no choice but to take the burden back first, but by the time I caught the burden and jumped back, the snitch was gone. ”
"My ...... My baggage. When the rich merchant saw his burden, he was overjoyed, and hurried forward, wanting to take it back.
Li Xiaoyao raised his hand to stop his steps, and said, "Wait a minute, you said that this burden is yours is yours?"
"Unless you say what is in this burden first, if you say it correctly, you can prove that this burden is yours, sir, I am doing this, it is both legal and reasonable, right?"
Hearing this, the chief catcher agreed: "This proposal is reasonable, so you can tell me what is in the baggage." ”
The burden was indeed his, and he naturally knew it, so he opened his mouth without stage fright: "Among the baggage are a jade Guanyin, three high-grade pearl necklaces, a pair of jade bracelets, and a jade wrench...... Fifty taels of gold, two hundred taels of silver, and six taels of scattered silver and fifty-five cents. ”
Lin Yueru opened the burden in public, the rich businessman said the same, she nodded, and when the rich businessman finished speaking, Lin Yueru bowed her head and said: "Okay, it is indeed exactly the same, it seems that this burden is indeed lost by you." ”
Hearing Lin Yueru say that the score was not bad, it proved that he had not lost anything in his baggage, and the rich businessman showed joy on his face, and said happily while stepping forward: "I said that it was mine! Thank you for the woman's ......."
"Eh, what are you doing?" saw that after Lin Yueru retied the burden, she put it back away, avoiding the rich merchant's hand.
The rich businessman said as a matter of course: "This is my burden, of course I have to take it back!"
The head catcher also looked at Lin Yueru puzzled, since it has been proved that he lost it, this is in public, of course, it has to be returned to others, can it still be swallowed privately in public? Although after listening to all kinds of things in the baggage, even they are moved.
Li Xiaoyao also looked at Lin Yueru strangely, but saw that the eldest lady said impatiently: "Do you understand the laws of the Tang Dynasty?"
The wealthy merchant said confidently: "Which law stipulates that the owner cannot get back the lost property?"
Lin Yueru said: "Of course, the owner can get back his lost property, which is a matter of course. ”
The rich merchant spread his hands and said, "Isn't that the end?"
Lin Yueru continued: "If you don't report to the official, then our act of helping you recover the lost property is a private act, at most, we are fighting grievances, acting chivalrous and righteous, and we will return it to you immediately." ”
"But you reported to the official, this is not the same thing, now your burden is a thief, and it is also the evidence of the crime of the thief in the future, how can you take it back?"
"According to the law, we have to hand over this bag to the yamen first, and then you can get it back after the yamen catches the female snitch and uses it as evidence to convict the snitch. ”
When Lin Yueru said this, she looked at the chief catcher with a smile and said, "This official, is there any mistake or omission in what I said?"
Li Xiaoyao suddenly realized that he already knew what Lin Yueru wanted to do, and he couldn't laugh or cry, it seemed that the eldest lady was a little annoyed.
The head catcher was overjoyed, and his heart praised Lin Yue as above, but his face was righteous and awe-inspiring, and he said with a little appreciation: "Yes, it seems that the heroine knows the Tang Dynasty law well!"
After speaking, he said to the rich businessman: "It is reasonable and reasonable, this burden should be handed over to the yamen first, and after this case is concluded, you will come to retrieve the lost property." ”
"Ah, this ......" The rich businessman was completely stupid, looking at Lin Yueru handing over the burden to the head catcher, and the appearance of the official and civilian family, his intestines suddenly repented, and he wanted to slap himself twice.
Why don't I report a fart official! I have nothing to do, and I hope that the stupid and corrupt official will catch the snitch? It is better to expect the snitch's conscience to find out and help him steal the burden back!
Inadvertently saw Lin Yueru sneering and glancing at him, a flash of lightning suddenly flashed in the rich businessman's mind, she deliberately, she could have returned the burden to me directly, but she deliberately handed it over to the government as evidence of guilt.
She was taking revenge, she was annoyed that I reported to the official to make trouble for her, so she deliberately cheated me like this, and sure enough, only women and villains are difficult to raise.
The wealthy businessman who wanted to understand this had deeper regret in his heart, but now it was too late to regret it.
"I haven't asked for the names of the two honorific names yet. The chief catcher smiled and put the burden on his shoulders, didn't look at the rich businessman, and hugged Li Xiaoyao and Lin Yueru.
"Don't dare to be, in Xia Li Xiaoyao, this is my junior sister Lin Yueru. ”
"Hehe, thank you Li Daxia and Lin Nuxia for helping to recapture this criminal evidence, if the snitch can be brought to justice in the future, the two will be the most meritorious, and the head of this catcher must be wise and guarded, and give the two commendations. ”
Li Xiaoyao's heart moved, and he said with a smile: "There is no need for commendations, it's just that we still have important things to do, but Taishou ordered that Xu in and not out, and asked the chief catcher to say a favor to Taishou and be accommodating." ”
"This ......" The head catcher had a difficult face, Lin Yueru raised her eyebrows, stepped forward and said: "The head catcher, my father is Lin Tiannan, the leader of the Suzhou Southern Martial Arts League, and Liu Shangshu in the capital is my uncle." ”
"My brother and I are on this trip, is to visit my uncle, if it is delayed in Yangzhou for a long time, when my uncle asks, I will talk about the matter here, I am afraid that the master will be in some trouble!"
The head catcher was shocked, this matter did not need to be approved by Taishou at all, he directly patted his chest and promised that he would definitely get a pass token for them.
The head catcher is satisfied and walks away with that valuable baggage, God knows when he will be able to catch the female snitch, or if he can catch the female snitch, then this bag of goods...... Hey...... Even if the big head is too guarded, they can always get some soup to drink.
Lin Yueru playfully glanced at the depressed rich businessman, and Shi Shiran said, "Go back and rest!"
Li Xiaoyao also said cool words, "Alas, we risked our lives to help people seize lost property, but our kindness was not rewarded, and we were treated as thieves, and we worked all night in vain." ”
The rich businessman was almost about to vomit blood, and now it's over, and those belongings fell into the hands of the dog official of Yangzhou Taishou, and it was a fool's dream to get it back.
And this dead woman is the daughter of the leader of the Nanwulin Alliance, and her uncle is still Shangshu, this is black and white! He can't afford to provoke it, this dumb man is determined to lose him.
Back upstairs, Li Xiaoyao asked Lin Yueru strangely, "Senior sister, why did you move so fast just now?"
Lin Yueru glanced at Li Xiaoyao in surprise and said, "Isn't this the time to be a fast son? I'm going to practice Zixia Gong! Don't you need to cultivate?"
Li Xiaoyao suddenly said, "I see, my Zixia Gong has entered a bottleneck, and now I am majoring in the Sacred Heart Technique." ”
"Sacred Heart Technique? What kind of exercise is that?"
Li Xiaoyao said: "It's the one who condensed the Xuanbing Sword when I was competing with you! Didn't Uncle Yunxu teach you?"
Lin Yueru's eyes lit up, she looked at Li Xiaoyao with burning eyes, and said, "No, I want to learn this, can you teach me?"
Li Xiaoyao thought for a while and said, "Okay! Cultivating the Sacred Heart Technique requires a profound foundation of cultivation to achieve something, and Uncle Shi didn't teach you maybe because your cultivation is insufficient!"
"But it's okay to practice first, with your cultivation, at least it should be no problem to practice Xuanbing. ”
"Hey, thank you, brother. ”
