MTL - Don’t Learn Mandarin Ducks-Chapter 35 Sometimes not so afraid of death

The yamen headed by the yamen handed the search document to the butler. The butler was old and dazzled.

He turned his head to look, as if he had been granted amnesty: "Yin Zhangshi, Yin Zhangshi, look at them, there is no king law!"

Hua Yue carefully read the document and pursed her lips and said, "Don't worry, the housekeeper, they came, and the son agreed."

"What?" Looking blankly at the eastern courtyard filled with yamen, the housekeeper couldn't understand, "What is this..."

Hua Yue also couldn't understand, she was so good at getting people to search her home, and it was written that Li Jingyun still used "detained person". He just went out for a trip, how did he become a detainee?

"I'll go tell the master." The housekeeper hurriedly left, Huayue stood at the door of the East Courtyard, watching the people rummaging inside, suddenly her heart became nervous.

The half red seal!

Inhaled a breath of cold air. She held up her skirt and wanted to enter the door. Unexpectedly, these people were moving very fast. In the blink of an eye, someone came out with a red seal and said, "I found it."

The yacha headed by opened the red envelope, took out the silver note, looked at the sun, and nodded slightly.

"Sir." Huayue took a few steps forward and said with a serious expression, "This red seal is mine."

The yacha who was about to leave was stunned for a moment, frowned and glanced at her, waved his hand and said, "Then you also follow to the yamen."

Messy and noisy footsteps rolled out of the front courtyard from the east courtyard, like a torrential rain hitting the lotus pond. After a while, the rain stopped, and only the panic-stricken servants were left in the courtyard.

Hua Yue thought that she would be brought to Li Jingyun's side, so she was calm, but when she arrived at Jingzhao Yin's house and was locked in the waiting hall, she realized that Li Jingyun was not there.

"Why are you here?" Liu Chenghe sat inside with a sad face, his eyes widened when he saw her.

Hua Yue was pushed into the fence, looked around a few times, and then smiled at him: "Half a red seal was found in the house, and I followed."

Inhaling a breath, Liu Chenghe asked in shock, "It was found in the third master's room?"

The hand holding the cuff slowly tightened, Hua Yue's heart was beating violently, she bit her lip and nodded: "I didn't put it in the right place."

"It's over, it's over." Liu Chenghe leaned against the wall with a headache and rubbed his forehead, "If you don't find the silver note in his room, it's better to say, if you do, then the third master will be doomed. "

With a "crack" in her heart, she looked down at her fingers, her knuckles turning white: "What the **** is going on?"

Xu Shi was also bored to be locked here, Liu Chenghe looked left and right, came over and explained to her in a low voice: "The red seal received by the third master is a rule on Guanshan, and he doesn't want to take it, but If you take the eldest princess, you will feel at ease, in the end, it is just selling the eldest princess a favor, who would have thought that this time the eldest princess has a traitor next to her, saying that she is a slave of the previous dynasty, but she is going to drag us into the water."

"Originally we have the support of the prince, so we shouldn't be afraid, but this time the difficulty is that the third master receives the money of the eldest princess, and the prince may not be willing to help. Plus the eldest princess I am dissatisfied that the third master suddenly takes a concubine, and the third master is planted here, it is really not so easy to escape."

He sighed and his tone was solemn, and Hua Yue couldn't help but feel uncomfortable.

"He is in prison, will he suffer?" she asked in a very soft voice.

Liu Chenghe shook his head: "Who knows? It was supposed to be a trial, but for some reason, the door of Jingzhaoyin Mansion was suddenly closed, and there seemed to be a lot of people outside."

Just an ordinary helpless and pitiful little girl, what did the third master see in her?

Liu Chenghe shook his head and looked away.

"Young Master Liu." The little girl called him suddenly, with some hesitation in her voice.

He is also a man with a long history, knowing what women usually say at this time, he waved his hand to interrupt her: "You don't have to worry too much, the third master has arranged it, even if he really If something goes wrong, it won't affect you in the slightest."

"Young master misunderstood." Hua Yue looked up at him, "I have something to do with my concubine, I would like to ask you for help."

Liu Chenghe became even more impatient: "It's a matter of benevolence and righteousness to get you out of your body, what more do you want?"

After a slight pause, she smiled and said earnestly: "My concubine wants to find a chance to meet the former slave slave who complained."

"..." Liu Chenghe turned his head, his face inexplicable.

He looked at Yin Huayue and found that the little girl seemed to have lost the panic she had before, she sat down on her knees with straw, her back was straight, her neck was graceful, and her eyes even burst out that he felt that very strange light.

***

Li Jingyun stood in the lobby with the doors and windows closed, and yawned sleepily.

He still smells of alcohol, Jing Zhaoyin frowned at him, didn't dare to stand too close, only said: "It's still not a big deal."

"Why?" He raised his eyes, "Lack of personal evidence or lack of physical evidence? You can send it to Master Liu."

Is this a matter of human evidence? Liu Taiping's face turned green. First the servants came to sue the Xu family's son, and then the son of the general's house directly came to sue the eldest princess of the dynasty. His place was the Jingzhaoyin Mansion, not the Jinluan Hall. How could such a big trial be made? case?

Li San Gongzi is also crazy, it has nothing to do with him at all, and the above just wants to bully the soft persimmon, and use the Xu family to operate. Who would have thought that he turned himself in directly, and said three During the years, the eldest princess bribed him no less than fifty thousand silver.

Is this a trial? He doesn't want his head, and his whole family still needs to live.

The face next to the eldest princess hurried over, standing here at this time, can only say good things with a smile: "Third son, this has nothing to do with the eldest princess, it is a small Red seal given."

"Don't tell me, Lord Long is also rich. A lot of money is poured into the private brothel. If the eldest princess knows, I don't know how it will end."

Long Rin listened, his face turned green: "You... how are you..."

Liu Taiping coughed lightly, and said solemnly: "In the court, don't talk about the wind and moon."

Li Jingyun turned his head and said lazily, "Then go to the hall, I have Master waiting outside."

"This..." Liu Taiping glanced at Long Rin.

This person must come with the meaning of the eldest princess, it depends on what he says.

Long Rin's face was still a little annoyed, but his eyes were full of scruples when he looked at Li Jingyun. After hesitating for a while, he pulled Li Jingyun aside and said in a low voice: "Third Young Master, this is really unnecessary, the Xu family is a small family, why do you need to fight so much? Let your master know, you must be angry again. You I'll go back to the mansion today, and I'll clean up for you here, how about it?"

Li Jingyun replied without a smile: "Where are you going? I'm going to go to the Palace of the Golden Throne to greet His Majesty."

The complexion changed, Long Rin squinted: "Three young masters, some things can't be changed by yourself, even if you want to take the blame for others today, Xu Changyi's crime of accepting bribes is also human. The evidence is all there, and when General Li comes over, you can only go back to the manor."

It turned out to be waiting for him here, Li Jingyun nodded, waved him away and looked at Liu Taiping: "Then let's go to the hall before my father comes."

The gavel was pinched in his hand and turned around, and landed on the long table with a "slap", the closed door was opened, and the yacha came in from both sides, The longboards shouted in unison: "Mighty-Wu-"

Liu Taiping looked embarrassed and looked at Long Rin, who was cruel and nodded at him.

With a long sigh, Liu Taiping took the seat, and just as he was about to let the defendant declare, suddenly he saw the arresting head rush in and said: "Sir, General Li is here, and the little one can't stop it."

When he finished speaking, he was pushed aside by the person behind him.

Li Jingyun's eyes darkened, but Long Rin on the opposite side laughed, and quickly greeted him: "The general is here, please bring the third son back, he is innocent, standing here, obstructing Lord Liu is on trial."

Li Shoutian stepped into the door, glanced gloomily at Li Jingyun, and then stopped at the viewing table: "Don't worry about me, I'm just here to listen to the hearing and see what mistakes my general's mansion has made, So that if there is no imperial decree, the family will be searched."

My heart skipped a beat, and Liu Taiping's face was bitter. He wanted to explain that it wasn't what he meant, but he had already put on the black gauze cap, and he was sitting on the throne, so he didn't bow his head any more. .

Forcing a sigh of relief, Liu Taiping announced that the servants beside the eldest princess came in.

Xu Changyi, the third son is just acting on his own volition and insists on advancing and retreating with his brother."

Li Shoutian looked suspiciously at Li Jingyun, who stood beside the kneeling servant with an expressionless face.

In the end, this time, the slave kowtowed and stood up, but what he said was: "The slave surrendered, the slave was threatened, and deliberately falsely accused the Xu family master, the Xu family master was wronged."

As soon as these words came out, the whole room fell silent.

"You continue to speak." He lowered his head and said, "Tell the truth, Lord will keep you from dying."

The little servant trembled and stammered: "Someone brought a bag of silver a few days ago and asked the servant to sue the Xu family master, and the servant to say that the silver note is a The girl gave it, and the servant didn’t know what it meant, but the man threatened the servant that he would not be able to live if he didn’t obey, and the servant could only do it.”

"Then why do you suddenly change your words now?" Liu Taiping slapped the gavel, "Do you know that this is the crime of teasing the court?"

"The slave...the slave has an uneasy conscience." He kowtowed twice, his eyes rolled around, "The slave is afraid that he will not end well in the end, and he will drag innocent people into the water, it is better to tell the truth. To be honest, I beg your lord to give me justice!"

Long Rin was furious when he heard this, and he stepped forward and scolded: "You idiot, how dare you speak out in this court!"

"What the servant said is true." He glanced at Long Rin in fear, and then lowered his head, "The servant is just a servant, why do you want to bribe Xu Gongzi? What's the benefit? "

"You..." Long Rin was not angry, but when he glanced at Li Shoutian who was standing beside him, he didn't dare to mess around, he could only take two steps back and winked at Liu Taiping.

Who would have thought that Liu Taiping didn't raise his eyes to look at him at all, and naturally didn't understand what he meant, he only said solemnly: "In this case, the case can only be dismissed."

"How can this be abolished?" Li Jingyun laughed, "Isn't there a crime of instigating slander? Lord, let's continue the trial, see who Fangsheng set up a bureau to frame the Xu family, and dare to threaten To the people beside the eldest princess."

Liu Taiping glanced at him and said, "Then we have to file another case and try again on another day."

"Where's the Xu family?" He smiled slowly, "Since the case can't be settled, that person should let it go."

Seeing General Li with a serious face from a distance, Liu Taiping didn't want to argue too much, he waved his master to write a document to report, and asked the head arrester to bring a warrant to release him.

"The third son." Ya Chai whispered, "The two next to you are still waiting in the waiting hall."

Two? Li Jingyun nodded, thinking that Wen Gu Zhi Xu was also rushing over after hearing the sound.

When he opened the door, he saw Yin Huayue.

This man was huddled in the corner of the fence, with a small body. If it wasn't for the light color of his clothes, which didn't fit in with the dark wall behind him, he would hardly have noticed that there was another person there.

Angry and funny, he walked straight over to break the lock on the fence, stepped in front of her in three steps and squatted down, reaching out to touch her forehead.

Hua Yue was closing her eyes to rest her mind, she opened her eyes as soon as he touched her, Qing Lingling's eyes were a little confused and looked straight into his.

“…”

My heart pounded, Li Jingyun withdrew his hand and scolded uncomfortably, "Why did you come here?"

Looked behind him, pulled his sleeves and looked at him, making sure there was no injury, Huayue let out a long breath and whispered: "They found the red seal in the East Courtyard. , and the concubine followed."

"What does it have to do with you?" He frowned, "You don't know how to run when disaster strikes, and you're still rushing to get in there?"

"The red seal is because the concubine's body was not placed properly. If the son is convicted for this, it is also the concubine's fault." Hua Yue sat up straight, and out of the corner of the eye caught a glimpse of the yacha standing outside the door , hurriedly pulled his sleeve and lowered his voice, "My concubine has already told people, if he doesn't continue to sue, you will not admit that you have seen Hongfeng, just say it is the private money of your concubine."

Seeing her anxious appearance, Li Jingyun's eyes moved slightly, and he slowly sat down beside her with the fence, and said melancholy, "I'm afraid it won't work."

"Why?" She panicked a little, stood up and grabbed his arm, and strongly persuaded, "You have the general's mansion to protect you, as long as someone is willing to take the blame, they will definitely not pursue it. "

"In this way, the Lord has escaped." He looked at her sideways, "How about you?"

Hua Yue smiled and said to him rationally with her fingers crossed: "The concubine will only be detained for a few days, as long as it's okay, you can find a way to save the concubine. Besides, this case As long as the whistleblower shuts down, there will be no more storms."

She thought that the plan was perfect, but for some reason, the person in front of her didn't show any admiration, instead she shook her head and sighed: "Naive."

"The bank note you received has a secret deposit on it, and the origin is clear. How did you make the private money? If you commit the crime for the master, then you will be imprisoned in the Heavenly Prison. Heavenly Prison is not a good place, to be punished."

He closed his eyes and looked at her, and said meaningfully: "You dare to go to the torture?"

Almost without hesitation, Huayue nodded and said: "Those places, concubine is more familiar than you, it is better than you to go."

The eyes are bright, determined and determined.

Staring at her for a while, Li Jingyun turned his face away and looked away, the corners of his mouth raised uncontrollably.

He thought he was not a good coaxing person, but when he remembered how afraid of death this person was, and when he looked at her expression as if he was dying, he seemed to suddenly have warm water in his heart, and he fell down earlier The thing was swayed by the warm water and floated up again.

I don't seem to care about him at all.

"Third Master." Liu Chenghe, who had been hiding by the side to watch the fun, couldn't hold back, "Should we leave here first, and then talk to my sister-in-law slowly?"

Hua Yue froze for a moment, then raised her head in confusion and asked, "Can you leave here?"

Liu Chenghe smiled and shook his head: "little sister-in-law, you are too stupid to be played around by the third master. If we can't leave here, how can the third master come here to stay here and talk nonsense with us? Ah, they were taken away long ago."

Li Jingyun turned his head and looked at him half-closed.

"...But, the situation doesn't seem to be optimistic at the moment." The conversation turned sharply, and Liu Chenghe said solemnly, "Anyway, go out first, and then we can discuss it."

In response, Li Jingyun brushed the grass on the hem of his clothes, and picked up the small things around him: "Let's go."

Hua Yue hesitated: "I don't need to stay here to explain the matter of the red seal?"

"No." Li Jingyun turned and walked out, "I'm hungry, go back to eat."

He and Liu Chenghe walked in the front, the man behind him seemed to be a little confused, lagging behind.

"What's the matter with the slave?" Li Jingyun didn't rush her, but instead asked Liu Chenghe in a low voice while she didn't follow.

Liu Chenghe came to the spirit when he mentioned this matter: "Third Master, you didn't see it, this little girl in your family seems to be able to sorcerer, and the servant came to the waiting hall as soon as she saw her It's crazy, the servant will listen to whatever she says. She's trying not to tell her life, but she turned her head and was willing to destroy her confession."

Li Jingyun frowned: "What did she say?"

"I was listening and I didn't say anything. I asked him if he could do me a favor and change his confession. The servant agreed." Liu Chenghe scratched his chin, "There's no other explanation except for the ability to sorcery."

Something crossed her mind, Li Jingyun pursed her lips, thoughtful. But only for a moment, he asked again: "Why did she do this?"

"Why else? I'm worried about you. When I heard that you had an accident, my face was as white as paper." Liu Chenghe shook his head with a tut, "I thought she was quite a bit squeamish when I saw it earlier. Indifference, in the end it is adversity to see the truth."

Li Jingyun raised her eyebrows lightly and her eyes were bright.

He didn't want to be too happy, so he just said with a stern face: "After all, he is a person who accepts him, and his heart is naturally attached to him."

Liu Chenghe shivered in disgust, rubbed his arms and said, "Third Master, we are all people rolling in the wind and moon field, can we not hang ourselves on a tree?"

Glancing at him coldly, he shook his head: "People who have never raised dogs will not understand."

Liu Chenghe: "…"

What about dogs?

"Master is still a little busy here, you go pick up Xu Changyi, and take Mr. Xu back to the house by the way." Li Jingyun pushed him, "If you have nothing to do for the past two days, don't sway around, put it away the limelight."

"Hey..." Liu Chenghe wanted to protest, but the third master ignored him, turned his head and bowed, and clapped his hands at Yin Huayue who was behind: "Come here."

The confused puppy chased after him obediently, looked up at him, his black and white eyes were clear and innocent.

You have to implicate the lady."

Hua Yue was stunned for a moment, her brows furrowed: "Then the concubine temporarily moved out of the General's Mansion, and will come back when the case is settled?"

"It doesn't have to." He touched his chin and said thoughtfully, "Let's live in the East Courtyard. If there are any changes, I'll let you know."

It makes sense to think about it, she lowered her eyes and said in a muffled voice, "Thank you, son."

The index finger pressed against her forehead, he sighed and comforted: "It's okay, don't take it to your heart."

Hua Yue didn't know that he turned himself in to blame others, she just thought that she had put the red seal in the wrong place, which led to him almost being convicted. Demeanor, but his eyes were slightly red.

This time he was really a little embarrassed: "Hey, isn't this okay?"

"My concubine didn't say anything." She pursed her lips stubbornly, "It's good to return home safely."

Li Jingyun couldn't help laughing and crying: "Why are your eyes red?"

"The wind blows."

"What about the tip of the nose?"

"Cold."

She was a little embarrassed, raised her eyes and glared at him and said, "Young master cares about these things."

Laughing softly, Li Jingyun glanced at her face, landed on her blushing lips, and murmured, "I think you feel bad for me."

Slightly stagnant, Huayue didn't start in embarrassment: "Young master is so good, what's the use of the next person's pain."

Sighing regretfully, Li Jingyun wanted to tease her again, but saw that the gate of the government office in front was open, and a few people walked in quickly.

His stride was huge, and in the blink of an eye, he walked up to him and looked at him.

The hem of the light blue skirt was raised, and the wide sleeves flew up. Before Huayue could react, the whole person rushed forward.
