Chapter 321



321 Meeting the Crown Prince (3)

“Pfft!”

Xu Qi ‘an flicked out a wisp of Qi and extinguished the candle.

The next day, Xu Qi ‘an bade farewell to Fu Xiang, who was reluctant to leave but had dark circles under her eyes, after being dressed by the courtesan’s wife.

The maidservants in the yingmei Pavilion watched Xu Qi ‘an’s back as he stepped out of the courtyard. They whispered, ”

young master Xu is too amazing. I think it’s time to change the bed in my mother’s room.

“Yes, it’s making a noise when I sit down now, it’s almost falling apart. It’s really hard on wifey.”

“Quickly go and boil water, wifey wants to take a bath. In addition, prepare some loquat paste, my wife’s voice is hoarse.”

After leaving the yingmei Pavilion, Xu Qi ‘an felt the chill of spring. The cold air that hit him in the face cheered him up. He walked towards the stables.

Suddenly, she stepped on a hard lump. She looked down and saw a purse.

After entering the spirit-refinement realm, it was directly upgraded to picking up wallets … Xu Qi ‘an was a little happy. She bent down to pick it up naturally and intended to put it in her arms.

He was suddenly stunned.

This purse was exactly the same as the one hanging on his waist. The stitches were fine and dense. A pine and Cypress were embroidered on it, which was sewn by sister lingyue.

Second uncle?

At the same time, Xu Qi ‘an saw a young man in a Confucian robe running towards the stables. The young man had red lips and white teeth, Eyes Like Stars, and handsome features. He had perfectly inherited his mother’s good genes.

I really didn’t expect this … Xu Qian said.

The handsome young man’s eyes kept wandering on the ground. When he finally saw Xu Qi ‘an, he was dumbfounded.

Xu Qi ‘an’s mouth twitched. He raised his hand and greeted, “”Morning.”

…… Xu Erlang looked at him and his lips moved, “”Morning …”

The two brothers looked at each other in silence. After a moment, Xu Qi ‘an took the initiative to break the awkward atmosphere. He walked over and returned the purse to Erlang.

“Be careful, it’s a good thing I picked up the pouch.”

Xu Erlang accepted it calmly and nodded, “”Thank you, big brother.”

The two brothers couldn’t find a topic to talk about, so they had to walk side by side to the stables, bring their respective horses, and gallop out of the Imperial Academy.

At this time, the sky had just turned bright. Other than the vendors and peddlers, there were few pedestrians.

“Yesterday. with my classmates …”

“Yesterday. with my colleagues …”

The two brothers said in unison.

Xu Qi ‘an looked back at the alley of the Academy and squinted at his younger brother. “Where are my classmates?”

Xu nianxin looked straight ahead and said lightly, “”Where are your colleagues?”

The two brothers had nothing to talk about again.

Xu Qi ‘an remembered that when he was released from prison and returned home, Xu niannian had died a social death because of ” worshiping the ancient times is like a long night. he was so ashamed that he pretended to be unconscious.

And now, he had seen her in the Imperial Academy’s workshop, but her expression didn’t change.

I’m not the only one growing up. Erlang’s skin has also become much thicker … ‘Well, maybe it’s because you’ve died too many times in front of me, and you’ve gotten used to it …’ Xu Qi ‘an saw a stall selling green oranges on the side of the road and quickly reined in his horse.”Wait a moment.”

Xu niannian reined in his horse and looked at him in confusion.

Xu Qi ‘an bought 500 grams of green oranges and asked Xu Erlang to get off the horse. While peeling off the skin and wiping his clothes, he said, ”

“The girls of the Academy’s workshop smell of cosmetics is too strong. If you cover it up with the juice of green orange peel, no matter how sharp a woman’s nose is, she won’t be able to smell it.”

Xu Erlang did as he was told and seized the opportunity to activate his poisonous tongue attribute. He sneered, ”

“Big brother’s mind is active, it’s a pity that you don’t go to school.”

Xu Qi ‘an glanced at him. second uncle taught me this.

Xu niannian didn’t seem to say anything. He lowered his head and carefully applied the orange juice on his clothes.

After they were done, Xu Qi ‘an handed the orange to Xu niannian and said, ” I’m going to the palace to handle a case. Take the orange Home.

“Handling a case?” Erlang frowned. What case do you want to solve this time?”

“You’ve heard of Consort Fu’s case, right? the old Emperor has left it to me.” Xu Qi ‘an explained.

“Why are you involved in this Bullsh * t case?”

The Yun Lu Academy had their own special channels of information, and whatever happened in the capital couldn’t be hidden from the eyes and ears of the Academy.

“I can’t refuse.”

of course not! Xu niannian sneered. you asked father to give you a beating and then use your injury as an excuse. Naturally, the case will be dropped. Besides, this case is bound to be difficult to investigate.”

Erlang is indeed suitable for the officialdom, his Black-bellied level has reached the standard … “Actually, the cases in the palace are the easiest to investigate,” Xu Qi ‘an said with a smile.

Because there were many experts in the palace, it was Emperor Yuan jing’s lair, and those fancy systems could not interfere. Consort Fu’s case was probably the most ” normal ” case he had ever solved since he came to this world.

Xu niannian nodded and looked at Qing ju in disdain. “Green oranges are sour and bitter. No one at home will eat them.”

don’t waste it. Give it to lingying.

“Good idea.”

………

The Supreme Court.

Xu Qi ‘an was sitting on his horse at the gate of the government office. He looked at the Golden words ” Supreme Court “.

The Supreme Court was in charge of the trials of prison cases, which was equivalent to the Supreme People’s Court in Xu Qi ‘an’s previous life. Together with the Imperial Censorate and the Ministry of Justice, they were the three law divisions.

Usually, in the case of a major case, the Emperor would have the three law departments conduct a trial together with the night watchman. From this, it could be seen how powerful Wei Yuan was, as he was in charge of both the night watchmen’s Yamen and the Imperial Censorate.

Emperor yuanjing only used him to keep all the civil and military officials in check.

At the same time, Xu Qi ‘an was very lucky to have joined the night watchman and gained Wei Yuan’s appreciation. He had gone from a fast hand in Changle County to someone who could do whatever he wanted in the capital.

“Quickly find the chief of the Supreme Court and have him come out to see me.” Xu Qi ‘an showed his gold medal and said to the bailiff on duty at the gate, ”

“If he doesn’t come out, I’ll go to the palace and complain to His Majesty, saying that he deliberately made things difficult and obstructed the investigation.”
