Chapter 57: One Hundred Taels

In the Dali Dynasty, the reason why scholars have a high status is because as long as they have fame, they are completely different from ordinary people.

If you have a meritorious name, not only will the imperial court give you subsidies every year, but you will also have many privileges.

Even if it's just a child, you can have it.

Just like Xu Xian now, if he commits a crime, the county magistrate of Qiantang County can arrest him first and detain him in prison, but to convict him, the county magistrate has no right, and must report to the prefect, and then wait for the governor to approve before he can be convicted!

Of course, if it's just an ordinary child, it's actually not qualified to fight with the county order. If Tong Sheng is taken into prison by the county order, it is not much different from being sentenced to death.

After entering the prison, the right and wrong are all decided by the county order, and there is no excuse for the crime you want to add, if there is evidence, it will be even easier and easier. The prefect or governor is only a formality in most cases, and it is impossible to carefully trace and find out for the sake of a child.

Xu Xian was escorted away by the officials, and the big stone in Yang Zhixian's heart completely fell to the ground and drove home.

This matter went around and around, but it was still under control. As long as Xu Xian enters the cell, he can only accept his fate, and he will obediently take care of it, and no one will know what his son has done.

Yang Zi thought the same thing in Anxin, but he was not as calm as Yang Zhixian, seeing Xu Xian's embarrassed appearance, he couldn't help the excitement in his heart, and walked to Xu Xian's side to stimulate the blow.

"I know that you still have hope, and you think that as long as this matter is passed to the prefect, you will still have the possibility of overturning the case, right?" Yang Zi'an smiled and whispered with a slightly hideous face, "But I can tell you clearly, even if this case reaches the prefect, you will definitely die!"

Xu Xian remained silent and asked, "Why?"

Yang Zi'an laughed wildly and said in a low voice: "Why? I heard that you made a lot of noise when you were in Hangzhou Mansion, and the prefect came forward in person, so you should know what our prefect's surname is, right?"

"The surname is Yang. Xu Xian frowned and said, "You are also surnamed Yang, what does the prefect have to do with you?"

"It seems that you are not hopelessly stupid!" Yang Zi'an said unscrupulously: "Governor Yang and I are of the same clan, my father wants to call him brother, and I call him uncle! So, do you think Governor Yang will help you as an outsider this time?"

"Against me, I want you to die an ugly death! And your classmate will come to prison to accompany you soon!"

After speaking, he glanced at Xu Xian, as if he was looking at a dead man.

He just wants to make Xu Xian feel desperate, to make Xu Xian feel regretful, and to make Xu Xian beg him for mercy!

Now the hatred between him and Xu Xian is not only that Xu Xian threatens him, but also a big reason that Xu Xian knows about the matter between him and Bai Qiulian. When he saw Xu Xian, he felt inexplicably weak in his heart, just like Bai Qiulian was looking at him in the dark.

But the more this is the case, the more he wants to torture Xu Xian!

He had to tell himself in his heart that he would not regret it, not be afraid, and not feel guilty!

But it's a pity that Xu Xian's color didn't change after hearing this, and he said lightly: "Then we'll wait and see." ”

"You kid......"

Yang Zi'an wanted to say a few words angrily, but Yang Zhixian turned his head and glared at him, and said sharply: "Zi'an, come here!"

Yang Zhixian actually had a little anger in his heart, what Yang Zi'an did this time made him very disappointed and angry, and when the matter was understood, he would not let Yang Zi'an go easily, and he had to teach him a good lesson.

Otherwise, he can still help him get through this incident, but if he provokes someone who is not so easy to suppress in the future, it will be his son who is unlucky.

"Wait for me, I'll get you on your knees begging for mercy soon!"

Yang Zi'an dropped a sentence, walked away quickly, and discussed with his father how to make Xu Xian completely dead without a place to be buried, and there was no possibility of turning over.

Although Yang Zi'an was very rampant in front of Xu Xian, he said that even if he went to the prefect's mansion, there could be no change in the result, and Xu Xian would definitely die. But only they know in their hearts that although Governor Yang is their own family, they are not particularly familiar with each other.

Yang Jianxing is a descendant of the Yang family in Jiangnan, and now he is the prefect and has a bright future, but they are only a branch of the Yang family in Jiangnan, and their right to speak is not very heavy.

Yang Zhixian did not doubt that Yang Jianxing would help his family, but he also had to try to do things perfectly and not cause trouble to Yang Jianxing, which was the best.

Back in Yamen, Yang Zhixian did not call the master, he was alone in the study to write documents, linked the 'demon road' incident in the red mansion with this water ghost murder incident, convicted Xu Xian as a 'demon', and then sent someone to Hangzhou Mansion to wait for instructions.

Yang Zi'an was full of ambition and got carried away, and couldn't wait to order someone to go to the He Mansion, arrest He Liang, and send Ruiyun back to the Yihong Mansion.

Li Gongfu, on the other hand, was anxious, trying his best to save Xu Xian, but there was no way, and he didn't know how to explain to Xu Jiaorong. If Xu Jiaorong knew that her beloved brother was in prison and his future was uncertain, I really don't know what would happen.

......

......

The water ghosts that have made many people panic in Qiantang County have been eliminated, but not many people know what thrilling things have happened, and no one knows.

In addition to the vicinity of Caishi Bridge, the county is still lively and noisy.

The calligraphy and painting shop located in the downtown street is full of people coming and going, and there are customers coming to the door constantly, and the business is booming.

A handsome boy who was wearing inconspicuous clothes, but the materials and workmanship were extremely exquisite and extravagant, walked to the door of the calligraphy and painting shop and looked up, suddenly became interested, and said to a feminine man behind him: "Xiaoguan, let's go in and have a look." ”

The feminine man bent down slightly and said respectfully, "Yes, Childe!"

When the two entered the store, the shopkeeper had good eyesight and immediately greeted them enthusiastically.

Although these two people seem to be inconspicuous at first glance, they can be called 'brocade night walkers', and the many small accessories on their bodies are enough to prove that they are not ordinary people.

The shopkeeper introduced a few calligraphy and paintings that he thought were of the highest quality to the two of them, but the handsome boy just shook his head, and did not show any thoughts of wanting to buy them, but only occasionally commented that he could do so, 'reluctantly', and 'not bad'.

The feminine man is more indifferent, he doesn't seem to talk much, and it is rare to say a word, but he is extremely arrogant: "Childe, you are a genius in calligraphy, and now there are only a handful of people in the entire Dali Dynasty who can be comparable to Childe, how can such a small shop be in your eyes." ”

The handsome man had no objection to this, but he didn't feel that it was a compliment to him, and his face was indifferent and calm.

It seems that he does fit what the feminine man said.

Just as he was about to leave, he suddenly put a piece of writing in a remote corner, suddenly stopped, his eyes lit up, and then he walked over quickly, and asked urgently: "Boss, who made this painting and how to sell it?"

Seeing this, the boss looked embarrassed and said: "This calligraphy is made by a new boy in our Qiantang County, his calligraphy is really good, and many people want to buy it." However, the price is too high, and many customers shake their heads and walk away after hearing about the price......"

The handsome boy carefully observed the words, and then read the poem mentioned above: After all, in the middle of June in the West Lake, the scenery is not the same as the four o'clock;

"Good poem, good poem! What a Xu Hanwen, I didn't expect to make such a wonderful poem describing the beautiful scenery of the West Lake, what a genius!"

There is no need for the shopkeeper to introduce him, but after he saw the inscription of the word, he knew who had done it.

"Boss, how much is this calligraphy, haven't you said yet?" said Junxiu Gongzi with a smile.

"One...... a hundred taels of silver. The boss replied helplessly.

"A hundred taels of silver?"

Junxiu Gongzi was stunned for a moment, and then shook his head and said: "It's too little! It's just that this word is still a little lacking in fire, if this calligraphy can be taken to the next level, and with this poem, a word of a hundred taels of silver is not too much!"

The shopkeeper was completely stunned.

A word of a hundred taels of silver?What kind of joke do you want to make, you have nothing to do to joke about me, right?

The boss estimated in his heart that he couldn't sell it again.

How do you know that the handsome boy immediately said: "Two hundred taels of silver, I bought this painting!"

"What?" the shopkeeper shouted, his eyes wide in disbelief.

No one wants to be wronged in front of a hundred taels of silver, but this person is willing to spend two hundred taels of silver to buy it?

The handsome boy repeated again: "Two hundred taels of silver, I bought it! But I want this Xu Hanwen to come and see me in person!"

"Huh?" The shopkeeper's head couldn't turn for a while, and he was a little confused......
