Chapter 29 The eldest brother protects each other

Chi Shi said, stood up, shook the dust that was invisible to the naked eye on his robe, and walked to Chi Ting.

Although she is a daughter, she is much taller than Chi Ting, and her height adds a bit of oppression.

"Uncle II, it's wrong, why give me so many excuses? I was angry and wanted to compete with my second uncle?"

She said, looking around in confusion, bowing to the ancestral tablet, "I am obviously taller than my second uncle, how can I compete for height? What I said is not just about being tall."

Chi Ting's face turned blue and white. When he was a coroner, his light was completely covered by Chi Shi's father Chi Zhu. It was not until he passed the imperial examination and became taller in the Chi family.

As for the time of the pond, people in the world knew the coroner, the superiors knew the capital, and the lowers knew the pond, the people in the middle were like crucian carp crossing the river, just like ordinary people.

"Of course, I can't compare to you who is older than me."

She was not too mean, and ignoring some things did not mean that she couldn't hear them, it was a hidden voice.

Chi Ting kept saying that he was wrong, but every word was exaggerating himself; she also said that she revisited the old case to make a fuss and show off herself; she also said that her father was a useless person and that no one taught her in her life; as a coroner, she crossed the boundaries and had too much control.

The most speechless thing is that she is obviously not wrong, so why did the second uncle make a final conclusion by saying a few words: a small punishment and a great commandment?

Who should I treat as a fool?

"Sharp teeth and sharp mouths! You are proud of your talent! You are simply ignorant of the world. You really think that you are a character and you don't even respect your ancestors!"

Old Master Chi was even more annoyed when he saw that Chi Ting couldn't come down from Taiwan. He glared at his eyes and his eyebrows were getting louder and louder. He looked back and found no chair.

This is a ancestral hall, where only dead people sit, and living people have to kneel.

He angrily picked up the wine pot on the offering table and was about to smash it towards Chi Shi's face.

Chi Shi didn't care, "That was the best barley wine for great-grandfather."

Old Master Chi froze his hand holding the wine pot and put it down again. He stomped his feet and cursed, "Amourage."

At this moment, a man ran in panting. He dressed in a Confucian scholar, his skin was as creamy as he ran too fast, his face was flushed, and his forehead was covered in sweat beads.

He waved his hand and held the door frame. Before he could stand firm, he opened his mouth.

"Grandfather, please listen to Chi Ying's words. Today's affairs are definitely not bad things. Not only are I not wrong, but I have made contributions."

Chi Shi's eyes widened, and his expression became vivid in an instant.

"Why are my brother back? The academy has no holidays."

Chi Ying calmed down for a moment, walked in, touched Chi Shi's head, and decisively pulled him behind him.

He bowed to Old Master Chi, respectfully.

Seeing him come back, Chi Ting instantly changed his face and pulled Old Master Chi's sleeve, "Dad, this spring exam is coming soon, who called Brother Ying back?"

Old Master Chi's face darkened again.

Seeing this, Chi Ying did not dare to pause any more and immediately said, "The Chi family has been silent for too long. Who still remembers that we are a coroner family? My grandfather was obviously very talented and was the first coroner in the world, but why did he only live in a state and never have the chance to recover?"

Chi Shi stood behind Chi Ying and curled his lips speechlessly.

This is true for the world, only hearing what is false, not the truth.

"It's not that we have no ability, but that we don't have the opportunity. No matter how wonderful the grandfather's case is, how can it be heard from the nobles in the capital? If there is a little bit of news about the Chi family in the capital, how can the people above think of the glory of our coroner family?"

"This time is different. Lin Sen is now the Minister of Rites. My younger brother borrowed the Innocent Seal of His Highness of Chu to overturn the verdict. His Highness of the King of Chu... What my grandson can think of, my grandfather must have thought of it long ago. When he heard about the Chi family, his Majesty heard it."

When Old Master Chi listened, he thoughtful, and his furry eyebrows instantly became a little softer.

Chi Ying looked at it and felt relieved, but her mouth was still unambiguous, and then she continued to say.

"I listened to the words of the deceased and uphold the law of loyalty and righteousness. In one day, I solved the unsolved case ten years ago. In the world, besides my grandfather, there is no third person who can do it? This made the nobleman see the ability of my Chi family."

"The seniors are wrong, and the younger generation corrects it. This is not to reveal their own shortcomings, but to show that our Chi family is honest and has a good character. The most important thing for coroners is not only capable, but also to be upright. Only such autopsy results are convincing."

"This made the noble man see the character of my Chi family."

“Another…”

Before Chi Ying finished speaking, she was interrupted by Chi Ting, "According to what you said, should I thank Chi Shi for finding out the old things ten years ago when I was promoted?"

Chi Ying nodded, "Second uncle, please listen patiently to me. If my nephew's words make no sense, you will punish me again... No, my grandfather will punish me again."

As he said that, he looked at Old Master Chi again, "Apart from this, I will tell you that this matter is the younger brother who has lost his second uncle's face and said that it is the prosperity of our Chi family and the talented people have emerged, so that the nobles can see the rise of my Chi family."

"The nobles have left an impression of this moment. Even if they don't reward them immediately, if there is a major case in the capital in the future, who will be the first person to remember? It must be our Yongzhou Chi family."

After Chi Ying finished speaking, she turned her head and looked at Chi Ting.

"Uncle II said nothing wrong before. You should indeed thank my younger brother."

As soon as he said this, the whole hall was silent again.

Even Chi Shi raised his ears curiously.

The second uncle Chi Ting was not allowed to be promoted, and he might even be demoted. If he hadn't been able to beat her, he would have jumped up and hit her in the knee.

"As long as I say, I can do it today, thanks to Lin Sen's support, especially the promotion this year... Lin Sen was so confident that he put the dead in the temple and asked people to worship him. This is a very crazy thing. This kind of thing is definitely not the only thing."

"In the past ten years, he has gone from a small county magistrate to the Minister of Rites. Seeing that the Minister of Rites was about to be resigned, he was a popular candidate for promotion. He occupied a high position at a young age, and countless people in the capital were staring at him."

"Even if there is no Zhang Mei case, Lin Sen's evil deeds will be exposed, it will be sooner or later. When the liquidation comes, how can the second uncle escape? How can the Chi family escape? Fortunately, the case was exposed by my younger brother, and the initiative is in our hands."

"Otherwise, if you say the previous sentence, the coroner of that year will be in love with Lin Sen..."
