Carefree Scholar Chapter 689: Here comes
"You look at this case and ask, I will sleep for a while."
In a county office in Fengzhou City, the magistrate yawned, waved his hand to the catcher below, and leaned on the chair and closed his eyes.
I'm getting older and my body is weak. I fought with Xinna's concubine until dawn yesterday, and now I can't bear it.
"Yes, my lord!" The arrester quickly arched his hands, bowed and said.
"You said to yourself, how many times is this?" He went down and patted the man's face. The big man sighed, "I can't count it."
"If you have hands and feet, do something bad, why do you have to steal it?" The arrester looked at him quickly and said, "I'm out this time, find some serious work, don't let me I saw you in the county jail."
"Oh, life is difficult." The big man sighed, and said in a melancholy tone: "Work is impossible to work. It is not born with this material. If you don't steal or grab it, you will starve to death... …"
The catcher gave him a quick twitch, waved his hand, and said, "Take it!"
"Look, is there anything missing."
The other arrester quickly tore a purse from the man and threw it to the middle-aged man.
The middle-aged man opened the purse and looked at it, his face was uncertain, and finally he gritted his teeth and said: "Nothing is missing."
The jade pendant that he was going to trade on the black market can't be said.
Although this will cost him nearly ten thousand taels of silver directly, the crime of keeping the royal family private, but the serious crime of losing his head, must not be known to the government.
It is best that the man had already thrown away the jade pendant. Although he felt sorry for the silver, it would not be so uncomfortable to think that it was used for a thousand taels of silver from an inexperienced guy.
It’s a pity, it’s a pity that if he originally planned to redeem him in the future, he would pay him more money, but if he came to the pawnshop, most of it would be sold. The chance of redemption is very small. Well, this one business alone can make a net profit of ten thousand taels of silver...
Distressed although distressed, taking a step back, compared with Xiaoming, these are not that important.
The big man was being held by two arrestees. When he was about to walk out, he seemed to think of something, stopped, and said, "By the way, there is a jade pendant, which is not worth a lot of money anyway. You also take it back together, so that when the time comes, I will say that I will not report it."
The big man arched his waist and said: "Here, catch my brother, help me get it."
When the middle-aged man heard this, his face changed drastically, and he immediately said: "Nonsense, I lost my purse, there is no jade pendant, you stole someone else's, remember it wrong!"
The big man was stunned for a moment, looked at the middle-aged man, and said: "You are not confused, you have forgotten the jade pendant, or you say... You really want to postpone it, it hurts me Get a few more boards!"
The middle-aged man forced his expression to calm down, and said: "Nonsense, why should I harm you? Have I lost my jade, don't I know?"
The big man turned his head and looked at the catcher and said: "Brother catcher, this guy may have forgotten. Yupei is on my waist. You can help him to take it. He should remember it when he sees it."
The catcher quickly looked at the two of them, and was a little surprised to find something from the bulge of his waist.
Crack!
There was a sound of broken porcelain and overturned tables and chairs from behind. The magistrate didn’t even care to pat the dust on his body. He got up from the ground and ran towards the door quickly, looking at the big man. , Pointing to the jade pendant and asked with a shocked look: "Here, where did you get this jade pendant!"
The big man was stunned for a moment, and looked at the middle-aged man in a daze.
At this time, the money bag in the middle-aged man's hands had fallen to the ground, his face pale.
Puff!
He weakened his legs and knelt on the ground, crying: "My lord, please spare your life!"
"It's not as good as it is!" the county magistrate said sharply.
Not long after, the county magistrate hurriedly walked out of the county office, got on the sedan chair, and urged: "Go to Fengwang Mansion!"
……
……
Fengwang Mansion is a very special existence in Fengzhou. The top official of Fengzhou is Fengzhou Governor, but Fengwang Mansion is actually in charge of Fengzhou.
This is a special case in Qi. Although many princes have fiefs, they are almost all remotely owned. They only enjoy tenant rents and live a rich life without any real power.
However, the third prince Zhao Yi is not included.
The fief is as large as a state, and can personally manage government affairs and have the power to make some major decisions. Among the more than ten princes of Qi, this is the only one.
The three princes, Zhao Yi, came to the fief when he was young. It took more than ten years to turn the original middle-level state capital into the most prosperous land in the entire Qi state, not only in the hearts of Fengzhou people Very high status, also has great influence in several other neighboring states.
At this time, Prince Feng's Mansion, the prestigious Third Prince, just put down a letter.
Below, Yang Yanzhou frowned and asked: "His Royal Highness, why did the prince come to Fengzhou so suddenly?"
Zhao Yi looked out the window and said: "Yoshih is accompanying him, saying that he is visiting the prefectures on behalf of his father, and in a few days, he will be in Fengzhou."
Yang Yanzhou thought for a while and said: "The eldest prince will not leave Beijing easily. Those who come to this trip are not good, so your Royal Highness must prepare early."
"My imperial brother..." Zhao Yi sighed, with a rather helpless tone, and said: "Is there no news from Chongzhou?"
Yang Yanzhou nodded and said: "Not yet, but according to the news from Jingguo, it seems that they have not found it either. There are rumors that he is afraid that he has been met by accident."
Zhao Yi shook his head and said: "No, if such a character falls because of this, he will be blind. This king believes that we still have the day when we meet again."
Yang Yanzhou didn't speak. Thinking of the name, some pictures appeared in his mind, and the expression on his face was a little bit dazed.
After a long time, that Young Master Li still has the same style.
The two said a few more words about this, and someone outside the door came to report, "Fengcheng County Order See you."
"The lower official has seen your Highness!"
The county magistrate of Fengcheng who hurried in came in and bowed first to Zhao Yi.
"Legger Wu doesn't need to be polite, sit down." Zhao Yi raised his hand and said, "I wonder if the magistrate Wu came to visit suddenly, what's the matter?"
A piece of jade pendant respected by County Order Wu presented it with both hands~IndoMTL.com~ and said: "His Royal Highness, this jade pendant was obtained by a few thieves by chance today."
Yang Yanzhou showed a surprised look on his face, looked at Zhao Yi, and said: "His Royal Highness, this is not the one given to you by your Majesty..."
"It's Huilong Pei."
Zhao Yi took Na Yupei from Wu County magistrate with a smile on his face and slowly chopsticks.
"He is here."
……
……
"Here is coming..." Li Yi hurriedly walked into the kitchen, one step later, and today he has to make do with egg fried rice.
Ms. Liu Er seems to have made up her mind this time. She will not give up if she doesn't make a dish that can be swallowed. She just feels sorry for the ingredients he just threw away as garbage. Some are really expensive...
I don't feel so distressed when I think of the five thousand taels of silver in the account just now.
This time the ten thousand taels of silver must be left one thousand taels. When you leave, go and redeem the jade pendant. In case the old emperor remembers it someday, you can't use it every time. Lolita fooled him with the reason she had lost it.
When I think of Yupei, I think of the stingy pawnshop treasurer.
The value of that jade pendant is of course more than one thousand taels of silver, but the last time he rushed to spend money, he was forced to cheat by helplessness.
He has always cheated people, and those who cheated him will be punished sooner or later.
This is not the second time I saw him, I saw him lost important things, and the next time I don’t lose my head..., so you still have to be upright, people are doing things, the sky is watching, you must hold onto The heart of integrity that has finally been held fast...
When the scorching smell came from the kitchen in the small courtyard again, the county office was in prison. The pawnshop shopkeeper knelt on the ground and kept kowtow, saying in a trembling voice: "He, he was wearing a hat that day. The villain, the villain really doesn't know the identity of that person!"
