Chapter 17 The Queen of the Sea
"My husband, the tea is coming." When Cheng Peng and Zhang Qinglian were talking, a woman with a dissatisfaction came in with tea.
"What are you doing when you come in? I'll talk to Sister Lian'er, you go out." Cheng Peng shouted.
The woman was stunned for a moment, looked at Zhang Qinglian who was not squinting, and then lowered her eyebrows and put down her tea and went out.
………
The rooster crowed three times, and Situ's lawyer got up early, put on his newly bought silk jacket, and taught his younger son a few big words. After breakfast, he was so motivated that he walked towards the county government with his eight-character steps. Today, the county magistrate finally opened the case of Luo Xingtang. He didn't care whether Luo Xingtang was dead or not. Today's case concerns the reputation and dignity of Situ's lawyer.
Xu Chuan ate cakes and drank porridge. Since Xu Chuan remembers, he has always been eating the rice made by Aunt Su. The porridge made by Aunt Su is the best. Even Xu Chuan, who was reincarnated, also shouted delicious. When Xu Chuan was eating, Su Qing watched from the side, holding leather gloves in her hand.
"Sir, you ordered the things you bought. Liu Blacksmith heard that you wanted them and dare not delay the creation overnight." Li Ming walked in, holding a small bag in his hand.
Xu Chuan's eyes lit up, and he hurriedly took it and opened the bag. Su Qing looked over curiously, and saw a small sword three-inch long and short placed in the bag, and a few jades the size of a palm were placed on the side.
"This jade has a lot of impurities. Chuan'er, why do you want this jade?" Aunt Su smiled.
Xu Chuan picked up the small sword, tried the hardness on it with his fingers, and nodded with satisfaction: "Yes, it's not bad."
Then I picked up the jade, put it in my hand and weighed it, and smiled and said, "I'm going to carve a jade body for Aunt Su, so that I can't forget Aunt Su's appearance in the future."
When Su Qing heard this, the smile on her face became a little sweeter.
When Yue Wu heard the side, she immediately showed intoxication and envy. Who said that adults don’t understand romance? It’s just that this romance has never been revealed to them.
Li Ming looked at Su Qing's sweetness that could not be hidden in his eyes, and then looked at Lord Xu Chuan, with ten thousand capital consolations in his heart. He silently remembered this trick. The adult's way of coaxing women is worth learning.
Xu Chuan played with the little sword and jade, and the sound of the Snow Mountain swordsman flattering him in his mind: "Using the carving method to practice the fingering method, well, the master is the master, which can not only temper strength but also exercise precision. Combined with my husband's fingering method, it is a perfect match."
Xu Chuan smiled slightly.
Back then, Li Xunhuan was extremely passionate and always held a knife in his hand, carving a statue of Lin Shiyin. Every time he carved it, it contained his own feelings and enthusiasm, so when his flying knife came out, no one could stop him, and it was almost a myth.
Xu Chuan's closest relative in this world is Aunt Su. Of course, he also has his past relatives and friends in his memory, but for three years of care... Xu Chuan cannot forget his heart attack. Every time he wakes up, Aunt Su looks on the side...
I can't forget the worrying expression of the latter's clothes and waiting by the bed.
I can't forget the smile on Su Qing's face when she saw him wake up.
This kind of love was something that Xu Chuan never felt in his previous life. In the world of the previous life, between men and women, it was either this licking dog or that licking dog. Everyone was a routine with whom, and whose emotional intelligence crushed someone was the winner. It was really boring.
So when Xu Chuan came to this world, what moved him the most was Su Qing's feelings for him.
Of course, we cannot talk about it from the same point. That world is not without true love, and not all women in this world are as good as Aunt Su.
Xu Chuan finished his last sip of porridge. He immediately put on his official hat, held the small sword and jade in his hand, and walked towards the hall.
Su Qing looked at Xu Chuan's back with satisfaction, with a gentle and sweet smile on her face, filled with the glory of happiness.
Jie Yu and Yue Wu felt as if they had eaten sour lemons. They could only lower their heads and not look at them, and hurriedly packed up the dishes on the table.
In the county hall, the people had already squeezed at the door and saw Lord Xu coming to the hall.
"Sir, come out."
“The adults look in a good mood.”
"I think the adults are even more wise."
People now look at Xu Chuan as if they are looking at popular items. In the past two months, Xu Chuan's actions have been really popular. Especially when they have confiscated the Qiujian School's home, it is equivalent to destroying a criminal group in Ancheng County. Some merchants no longer need to worry every day, and the gangsters are even more rude and dare not cause trouble.
These are all the achievements of the county magistrate.
Xu Chuan put the jade and the sword in his sleeves, glanced at the people outside the hall, and saw Luo Pingping standing in front of him. The latter looked haggard and thin, she was a little weaker. If it weren't for the maid Xiaofei next to him, it would be as if the wind was about to fall down. Behind the crowd, Zhang Qinglian was also dressed in a simple manner and looked calmly. Xu Chuan raised his lips without any trace, and then he spoke solemnly: "Enter the hall."
"Majestic~Wu~"
"Take a prisoner to court."
Luo Xingtang was brought to the court, and Situ's lawyer and the jewelry shop owner also walked to the court.
Situ's lawyer was full of fighting spirit, while the small owner of the jewelry store showed grief.
"Brother." Luo Pingping stood outside the court accompanied by the maid Xiaofei. When he saw his elder brother, tears were already flowing in his eyes.
In fact, although Xu Chuan arrested Luo Xingtang, she was not punished and allowed her to visit. Luo Xingtang lived a life that was no different from outside, but she still obviously lost her former demeanor, and there was a trace of decadence between her eyebrows. He came to the hall and looked outside the hall. He paused a little on Luo Pingping's face and looked at the crowd, as if he wanted to find someone. When he saw Zhang Qinglian standing in the crowd, he rarely smiled.
Xu Chuan was speechless,
Stupid, so stupid. You don’t even look at what your sister is worried about for you.
"Sir, the jewelry shopkeeper was killed by Luo Xingtang. The case is clear and the evidence is conclusive. Please give the sentence." Situ's lawyer stepped forward respectfully and said.
Xu Chuan nodded slightly: "Well. There is no hurry to do this case. I will try another case before I will try this case today."
"Hmm?" Situ's lawyer was stunned.
The owner of the jewelry shop, Luo Pingping’s master and servant, and the people were all stunned. Are there any other cases?
"Miss, is Lord Xu going to drag it down again?" the maid Xiaofei whispered.
Luo Pingping had no idea, he just shook his head slightly.
Xu Chuan ignored their surprise and waved his hand: "It is said that the young master of the Li family, the second young master of the Hu family, Lin Xiucai and others came to the court..."
Suddenly, the yamen crew brought seven or eight young people in a hurry. These young people bowed their heads, and they were all decent people in Ancheng County.
"Mr. Li from Risheng pawnshop? What did he do?"
"Husband..." A woman was stunned when she looked at the scholar Lin.
"That bastard, why did you do something bad without hiding me?" another rough and rich man roared.
The people outside the hall suddenly became noisy.
"quiet!"
The head of the group shouted loudly.
There is silence.
Zhang Qinglian stood outside the hall, thinking that Xu Chuan would judge Luo Xingtang and how much benefits she could get, but she didn't expect that Xu Chuan brought such a group of people with her face turned pale. She thought it was not good and was about to turn around and leave.
But as soon as she turned around, a black-faced figure appeared behind her. He held a heavy sword in his hand and looked at Zhang Qinglian.
"It's said that Miss Zhang came to the hall." Xu Chuan's voice came from the hall.
Zhang Qinglian's body trembled.
"Miss Zhang, please call me." Li Ming said in a deep voice. As he spoke, he subconsciously wanted to show a smile, but he felt that he shouldn't have it, so he hurriedly stopped it, making him smile...
Zhang Qinglian was even more afraid. She knew that Qiu Jinhu was killed by the black-faced young man in front of him. At that moment, he could only follow Li Ming to the hall.
"Miss Zhang..."
"Miss Qinglian."
"Liangmei..."
As soon as Zhang Qinglian came to the hall, Luo Xingtang wanted to say hello, but before he could speak, a few calls were heard beside him. However, the seven or eight young men spoke enthusiastically.
Zhang Qinglian looked at Xu Chuan Yingying without looking sideways, bowed to Xu Chuan and said softly: "Minister Zhang Qinglian, I have met the adults."
Xu Chuan said: "Zhang Qinglian, do you know these people?"
Zhang Qinglian shook her goose neck gently: "Grandmaster, the young lady doesn't know it."
"My sister Lian, why don't you know me anymore? We have a three-year appointment. As long as I wait for high school, I will marry you..." The scholar was anxious.
"Fuck, I am the person Miss Qinglian likes." The young master of the Li family was anxious.
"What I like is you, Miss Zhang, do you still remember the love token I bought at the Chengjia Jewelry Store."
They all rushed to tell.
Zhang Qinglian cursed these idiots with a cold face.
Luo Xingtang was a little confused when he saw this scene. The young men immediately reacted, and after looking at each other, they vaguely realized something.
Xu Chuan snorted coldly: "You guys say one by one, Li Xiaofu, you talk first."
Li Xiaofu is the young master Li from the pawnshop. He glanced at Zhang Qinglian, sighed, and then said, "I met Miss Qinglian in a teahouse. That day..." He said slowly, with a little intoxicated face on his face. In the end, "I spent 200 taels of silver at the Cheng family jewelry store and bought a bead flower to give to her, and then I had no contact again."
The second story of the second Duke of the Hu family... was also a wonderful encounter. After spending a sum at the Cheng family jewelry shop, there was no news later. He did not dare to make a name for himself because he had already made a marriage.
The scholar even said... He had already lost his family and bought his property without telling his wife, just to buy a piece of jewelry for Zhang Qinglian.
...
They told,
The people outside were stunned when they heard this. One was surprised that the jewelry store was so expensive that it was beyond their imagination. The other was that Miss Zhang, this... interpersonal relationship and emotional communication were too rich.
Xu Chuan finished listening to these people's experiences and looked at Zhang Qinglian. He thought that the women in this world were relatively "conservative and implicit". Unexpectedly, there was also such emotional liar, the female Sea King.
"Zhang Qinglian, what do you have to say?" Xu Chuan shouted.
Zhang Qinglian immediately burst into tears and knelt down on the ground, saying shyly: "Sir, I know that although the little woman knows them, she has never done anything beyond the courtesy. As for the expenses, they are willing. The little woman has never accepted the jewelry."
Xu Chuan smiled coldly and said, "Yes, you didn't accept those jewelry, because you were colluding with Cheng Song, the shopkeeper of the jewelry store, and they should work together to get their silver. Of course, it's okay to be unreasonable. They can only blame themselves for being stupid and being fascinated by your beauty and tenderness. However, on Luo Xingtang, you put on a trap again. Cheng Song, the shopkeeper of the jewelry store, had chest tightness and shortness of breath. The official asked four pharmacies in the city overnight and learned from the doctors of Chunfengtang that Cheng Song went to his place for treatment the day before his death because of a sudden fainting. The doctors of Chunfengtang said that Cheng Song was already terminally ill and had no cure, so you wanted to be a big shot, frame Luo Xingtang and take care of his property, right?"
