"Girl, the hot water is ready. Will you take a bath?" at this time, the little servant girl who just woke up was a little guilty and timid.
Xu Mingyi nodded and raised his feet to the ear chamber first.
Seeing her brisk footsteps, the little servant girl hurried to follow.
After taking off her dress, the graceful and white girl didn't go into the bath bucket.
"What's your name?"
"How old is it this year?"
Xu Mingyi asked the little servant girl from time to time. Obviously, he was in a good mood.
During the chat, the tension of the little servant girl slowly disappeared.
Why do they say that girls have a bad temper? They are obviously very approachable.
But——
The girl suddenly asked her to sing a little song. What's the matter?
In the middle of the night, the little servant girl felt that this requirement was more or less inappropriate, but she cleared her throat and sang seriously.
"Jianjia is green and White Dew is frost. The so-called Iraqi is on the water side..."
The little girl's gentle singing came out of her ear room and floated into the inky night.
……
The next day, the sun rose, and the merchants and people were bustling at the gate.
The appearance of a group of horses made the vibration and noise everywhere.
"Look, who is that!"
"What a big battle..."
"What's the matter with those people pulling behind?"
Wearing an ink cloak, the girl with beautiful and cool eyebrows and eyes sat on the horse. Beside her was another young man with a bright and outstanding appearance and noble temperament wearing a crow green robe.
After seeing their faces, there was a faint exclamation around them.
"Which girl is this, childe... Really an immortal!"
A man sitting on a donkey cart with a child in his arms said he would say, "I know! This is Miss Xu from the government of the town!"
"So this is Miss Xu..."
After Zhu Xiu explained the general situation with the city gate guard, Xu Mingyi and others had been exempted from inspection and entered the city gate.
Seeing that the line of people had gone farther, the curiosity of the people not only did not diminish, but increased.
"What are the origins of those people who were tied up..."
"There's a little girl in there!"
"It doesn't look like an honest man!... some people still have a knife in their waist!"
"Ho! Miss Xu won't take people out of the city to suppress bandits, will she?"
"Suppress bandits?!"
"Worthy of being the granddaughter of old general Xu!"
Everyone's imagination became more and more open, but the man in the donkey cart urged the driver to turn around and return to the city.
The black faced boy who drove the car scratched his head: "uncle, we won't go to incense?"
And uncle loves to listen to the excitement. Even if he doesn't go to incense, he should stay here and talk about gossip with everyone.
Is this still his uncle?
"What kind of incense? Go to the Yamen! Come on!"
Inexperienced people will continue to waste time here. Smart people have thought of going to Yamen to occupy a good position!
Even without this keen sense of smell, how can you hear the freshest and most accurate gossip?
When Xu Mingyi and his party came to the yamen, they saw that more than ten people were waiting.
The officials also waited outside the yamen gate.
——Suddenly the people came to watch. They knew something must happen. When they asked the familiar face holding the child, they had a general understanding and preparation for the next thing.
Sure enough, isn't it coming?
Ji Dong soon rose to the hall.
Xu Mingyi took people into the hall to salute.
"Miss Xu -" Ji Dong pressed down his inner surprise, looked at a group of people with their hands tied and asked, "I don't know who these people are and what they have done?"
It's not true. What bandit's nest did Miss Xu carry?
Xu Mingyi looked at Zhan yunjiao, who was kneeling there, and said coldly, "Miss Zhan is the mastermind of this matter, and tell me what happened."
"..." Zhan yunjiao knelt with her head down and her hair in a disorderly bun. At this time, tears were like beads. She bit her lower lip tightly and shook her head without talking.
Ji Dong has a headache.
What he was most afraid of when he tried the case was that he cried and didn't cooperate in court. If you haven't done anything wrong, then quickly defend yourself. It's really wrong - are you afraid you don't have time to cry when you're in prison? At that time, I'll cry as much as I want, and my cellmate will cry with me. What's the hurry now.
Fortunately, Miss Xu is a sharp girl——
"Then let me explain what I know to you." the girl standing there said clearly: "a few days ago, a little boy sent a letter from an unknown source, indicating that it was for me. This letter is still here. Please have a look at it."
While she was talking, she took out the letter from her sleeve, and the Yamen took it and sent it to Ji Dong.
Ji Dong unfolded the letter and scanned the contents of the letter. His eyebrows couldn't help jumping.
Zhan Yunzhu?
Is it the young man who threw himself into the river last year?
Considering the reputation of the girl's family, Ji Dong hesitated to reveal the content of the letter in court.
However, at this time, I only heard the girl of the Xu family say by herself: "after reading this letter, I realized that it was written by a man who claimed to be Zhan Yunzhu. In the letter, he said that he threw himself into the river and was saved by others. However, he failed to show up because of his difficulties, so he asked me to meet outside the city in two days and told me to go alone without disturbing others -"
As soon as he said this, his ears were pricked up outside the hall, and there was a breath of surprise among the people who listened.
Those who squeeze to the front are all experienced gossip people. But who knows gossip will not know the master Zhan who threw himself into the river when he left the Yamen last year?
What, is this man still alive?!
"At that time, I thought there was something strange about this, and there were differences between men and women. It would be inconvenient for me to meet alone, but I was afraid that he was still alive, but he would encounter some difficulties, such as being kidnapped and threatened - so I decided to let someone go to the appointment instead of me. I took someone else to guard in the dark in case of accidents. Unexpectedly, it happened Cheat. "
Xu Mingyi said this half true and half false, and immediately turned to look at the man standing aside.
Yun Liu:... It is inevitable that we have reached this step.
He stepped forward, raised his hand and took off the power fence above his head.
Ji Dong took a breath secretly.
It's not that the other party looks ugly. On the contrary, he has a very handsome life.
But the key is that this person stood there. He always thought it was a girl's house. As a result, when Mi Li picked it, it was a man's face with light green stubble... Who can withstand such a sudden visual impact?
"..." the Yamen servants were also surprised.
"I'm the one who keeps the appointment for my girl -"
Facing the strange sight, Yun Liu tried to make his expression look normal enough.
"At that time, someone will be lured into a wooden house in the forest and try to Daze me with ecstasy." he coldly pointed to the long-sleeved man kneeling in the hall holding the broken arm and said in a deep voice: "that's the man - after pretending to be unconscious, he tried to do something unbearable to me!"
