。 Back on Shantang Street, the Lin family has been waiting.

Tian Qi and Shuai Hui carried the big bags into the hall, and Mrs. Lin was very distressed about Wang Xian's indiscriminate spending, but she was a lot more affectionate in her words and demeanor. It can be seen that the phrase 'courteous walks all over the world, and it is difficult to walk an inch without being rude' is indeed applicable everywhere, and even the old lady of the scholarly family is not exempt from vulgarity......

Lin Qing'er asked if she had eaten, Wang Xian said that she had eaten outside, said a few more words, and went back to sleep in their rooms. Shuai Hui and Er Hei slept with Tian Qi, and Wang Xian, the future uncle, naturally got some preferential treatment and slept in the room prepared for Lin Qing'er.

Wang Xian entered the house for a while, the door was gently pushed open, and Lin Qing'er brought him footwashing water, but he saw that he had already fallen asleep on the bed after just such a while.

The lonely lamp is like a bean, and under the dim light and shadow, the young and delicate face is full of worry and tiredness...... And these are not to be seen in the white rì Reagan. He always brings smiles and warmth to others, but he resists all the difficulties himself...... Lin Qing'er's nose was slightly sour and her eyes were moist, this young man who was one year younger than herself had really transformed into a man, a man who could be relied on with all her heart......

Full of relief, she couldn't help but feel sorry for herself, seeing him so tired, she couldn't help ...... anything.

Wang Xianlai didn't sleep deeply, and felt that someone was touching his feet, and as soon as he opened his eyes, he saw Sister Lin squatting on the ground, taking off his shoes.

Feeling a tightness on his body, Lin Qing'er didn't look up, and said softly: "Don't move." As he spoke, he took off the sock on his right foot, held his foot in both hands, and gently put it in the basin of water, and washed it carefully.

"I can't help it," Wang Xian always had respect for Lin Qing'er in his heart, otherwise the two of them were under the same roof, and he would not always be with his hands, but he was affectionate and polite to Sister Lin...... Now seeing her washing her feet, Deng Shi was flattered and said: "The hands that write and draw are not for washing people's feet." ”

Lin Qing'er slowly raised her head at this time, and she didn't know if it was smoked by water vapor or what, her pretty face was as red as jade, her eyes looked at him with affection, and she said with affection: "This is my wife's share." ”

Hearing this, Wang Xiandeng's whole body was hot, and he actually felt a great sense of relief, sat up and said, "Qing'er, can you say it again." ”

"Lie down." The ambiguous atmosphere became more and more intense, Lin Qing'er was embarrassed, stretched out her hand to push him, and said coquettishly: "It's not your wife or what?" Is it really a brother and sister? ”

"Hey, hey, no." Wang Xian smiled, lay down obediently and said: "I know that you have always felt wronged, and I feel that people like me, when you are a brother and sister, you can still accept it, and you will lose a lot as a husband and wife......"

"Although you are extremely smart, you don't know anything about women," Lin Qing'er shook her head, rubbing the acupuncture points on her feet for him, while biting her lip and said: "I have said a long time ago, as long as you are willing to be motivated, regardless of whether you are a farmer or a businessman, or even follow you to eat chaff vegetables, I will not feel wronged......"

"Hehe......" Wang Xian smiled happily.

"It's me, seeing that you are carrying such a heavy burden, but you can't help with anything," Lin Qing'er said quietly: "I feel that I am really useless." ”

"Why is it useless," Wang Xian's nasal voice became heavier and heavier, and he snorted: "I'm comfortable now, I'm going to fall asleep......" After speaking, he snored slightly.

Sister Lin's hand did not stop, and she pressed for him for half an hour before she dried his feet, carried him back to the bed with difficulty, and gently covered the quilt.

Looking at his sleeping face, finally exhausted, replaced by a baby-like tranquility and serenity, Lin Qing'er smiled with relief although she was tired.

She couldn't help but give him a gentle kiss on his forehead, and then she blew out the oil lamp in a panic and went out of the door in shame.

When she returned to her mother's house, she saw that her mother could no longer hold back and fell asleep. Lin Qing'er couldn't help but complain that she was really unfilial. I've only been back for two days, and I'm not good at accompanying my mother. Quickly blew out the light, took off his shoes and went to bed, and gently pulled the quilt for his mother, but saw her smile and open her eyes.

"Mother, did my daughter quarrel with you?" Lin Qing'er whispered.

"If the girl doesn't come back, can the mother sleep peacefully?" The old lady smiled slightly.

"I'm sorry, mother......" Lin Qing'er was very apologetic, but she didn't know how to explain.

"What kind of stupid thing are you talking about, is my mother the kind of person who dominates her daughter?" The old lady stretched out her hand and stroked her daughter's hair, and Lao Huai was very relieved: "Mother is finally relieved, you said before that you were not wronged, you were very happy, it was true......"

"Of course it's true." Lin Qing'er shyly burrowed into the quilt, and was no longer embarrassed to show her head......

The next morning, just after breakfast, an errand officer from Changzhou County drove to pick him up. Today, there is no need for Uncle Tian Qi to lead the way, Wang Xian only took Shuai Hui and Erhei, took the carriage to the county government first, and waited for Xu Zhixian to deal with official business, then followed his sedan chair and came to the Susong Salt Transportation Branch located at the site of Dahong Temple in the Yuan Dynasty.

The eyes of the Yansi Yamen are higher than the top, and they look down on the seven-grade officials, thanks to Xu Zhixian being the county parents after all, so they have to look at him differently and make him get by.

However, the door bag cannot be saved, of course, it is Wang Xian. After taking over the famous assassin of Xu Zhixian, Menzi invited him to eat tea in the gatehouse, but Wang Xian didn't even sit down, so he had to stand aside.

After waiting for at least half an hour, the porter came and called them in. Wang Xian couldn't help but glance at Xu Zhixian with admiration, and Xu Zhixian, who was still calm, admired even more for the foresight of this uncle...... After coming in and sitting for so long, Xu Zhixian didn't drink a sip of water, obviously he had seen this earlier, so as to avoid urgency.

Thinking of this, he had no resentment against Xu Zhixian. The county officials of the provincial capital are really difficult to be, the main hall of the county outside the county is the eldest of the parents, but the county officials of the provincial capital are like grandsons, and they have to kowtow to worship the Bodhisattva in any temple. So Xu Zhixian is willing to bring him here, which is already very interesting, how can he ask others to take care of everything? There's nothing wrong with people!

Entering the Yansi Tongzhiwai Signing Detention Room, Xu Zhixian waited for a while, and an official in his forties and fifties, wearing a scarlet robe, finally lifted the curtain and came out of the room.

I have to say that this person broke Wang Xian's good feelings about the scarlet robe...... When he saw Zhou Xin wearing a scarlet robe and sitting in the hall, that kind of cold and noble almost blinded him. Since then, Wang Xian has been a little obsessed with the scarlet official robe, and has dreamed several times that he is wearing a scarlet robe and sitting in front of the breakfast stall eating tofu brain...... That's a lot of fun.

But the man in front of him was short and fat, with a bulging chest and belly, and a scarlet official robe wrapped around his body, like a red lantern. A face full of fat, a rosacea nose is very piercing, but two small eyes are full of arrogance and coldness.

This is the Yang Tongzhi who hurt them.

Xu Zhixian hurriedly got up and saluted, Yang Tongzhi just snorted with his nose, and then piled his butt on the main seat, "Sit." ”

"Thank you, sir." Xu Zhixian only dared to put half of his ass on the chair.

"Your county took the time to come," Yang Tongzhi squinted and said, "I don't know what business you do?" ”

"Go back to my lord, it's not the official business of our county." Xu Zhixian said: "Xia Guan was entrusted by his fellow villagers and friends to send two letters to adults. ”

"Where are the fellow countrymen?" Yang Tongzhi smiled and asked, "You can actually let your county be a messenger." ”

"It's the same year as Xiaguan, Wei Yuan, Fuyang Zhixian County." Xu Zhixian replied.

"......" When he heard Fuyang County, Yang Tongzhi was like eating a fly, and he was tired of the taste: "It turns out that your county is here to be a lobbyist." ”

"Your Excellency misunderstood." Xu Zhixian hurriedly said: "It is indeed a letter, not only the letter presented by Wei Zhixian to the adult, but also the handwritten letter of Zheng Fangbo and Zhou Zhentai in Zhejiang. He said to Wang Xian: "Don't present the letter to the adults yet." ”

Wang Xian took out three letters from his bosom and bowed down to Yang Tongzhi, Yang Tongzhi took them for a long time, and said to Xu Zhixian: "Why do you still bring a scribe?" ”

"He is the person in charge of Fuyang's grain purchase this time." Xu Zhixian explained: "Wei Zhixian sent him to deliver the letter, which also meant to accept the adult's questioning. ”

"You were really fooling around in the same year, such a big matter, you can make a scribe responsible." Yang Tongzhi opened a letter with a letter opener, and said while taking out the letter: "Are there any good things among the scribes, they are all cunning and greedy for money, no wonder there is such a big thing." ”

Wang Xian stood behind Xu Zhixian, and he had to endure it to prevent his fist from falling on the pig's face.

"After all, you're still young." Xu Zhixian said with a smile: "We Yongle four years of that subject, when the Golden Palace passed on, the emperor saw that this kid was young, and let him go home to study as a jinshi, and use it again when he grows up." This was a joke at the time, so adults must have heard it, right? ”

Xu Zhixian wanted to hint to the other party that although Wei Zhixian was young and humble, it could be regarded as Jane in the emperor's heart, so it was better not to offend. Who knew that Yang Tongzhi ignored it, shook his head categorically and said, "I haven't heard of it." He stopped the rest of his words.

Xu Zhixian had to shut up and wait for him to finish reading the letter, Yang Tongzhi finished reading the letters from Zheng Fantai and Zhou Zhentai, as for Wei Zhixian's letter, he didn't even open it......

In Xu Zhixian's expectant gaze, Yang Tongzhi said indifferently: "I have already read the letters of the two Daxian, and I will reply to them when I turn around." After a pause, he said, "You don't have to come again, Si has his own messenger." ”

"Then ......" Xu Zhixian asked stubbornly, "Dare to ask when he will be released?" ”

"Your county is also in charge of justice, how can you say such a thing?" Yang Tongzhi wanted to show a righteous face, but his appearance was too bad, and he looked quite obscene: "When to release the person, whether to release the person or not, it all depends on the case body, if after the trial, they are indeed innocent, and they will naturally be released immediately." ”

"Can I release the boat first?" Xu Zhixian asked again: "Zhejiang has been hit by a disaster, and hundreds of thousands of people in Fuyang County are still waiting for food to save their lives. ”

"It never makes sense." Yang Tongzhi said categorically: "There is a way to get both stolen goods, unless they are proven innocent, they cannot be released alone." After a pause, he said, "Otherwise, if there is still private salt hidden in the ship, won't Si become an accomplice?" ”。
