lady

Chapter 766

Ye Xinyan smiled and patted An Guogong's flattery: "Look, let me just say, grandfather, you are the most reasonable."

Man, when did I say I was reasonable?An Guogong started to feel a headache when he faced such a granddaughter.It turns out that there is a descendant who can make a lot of troubles, which is really distressing.

"You are grown up and sensible now, and you are no longer the reckless woman you used to be. You can handle this matter yourself. If you cause any trouble, it is up to you to figure out how to deal with the aftermath. My old man will not take care of it. I will tell you That old boy Yin Long, he is not allowed to interfere."

Duke An's idea is very simple. Since he has high hopes for this granddaughter, he can't always think about asking the elders to help her with the finishing matters.Put some pressure on her to go through things on her own, and it will come in handy later.

Ye Xinyan was stunned for a moment, and then said disdainfully: "Hey! Don't care, don't care, what's the big deal." Don't tell me I'm not An Guogong's granddaughter if you say I don't care?People also think that I am a ruthless person in the first-class noble mansion.

Ye Xinyan raised her eyebrows high, cast a disdainful glance at An Guogong, bowed her knees in an extremely perfunctory salute, waved her hands and turned away.That free and unrestrained back, telling An Guogong plainly: There is no need to be so respectful to a grandfather who cannot be a strong backing.

Duke An blew on his beard and stared for a long time, but he couldn't do anything about it.It seems that You Chenghui's plan is going to fail, not because he refuses to settle the matter, but because he is powerless.

If his granddaughter was so easy to discipline, she wouldn't have been made so miserable back then, and naturally she wouldn't be as lethal as she is now.

Well, after all, the advantages outweigh the disadvantages, which is not bad.

…………

Therefore, You Chenghui felt that his fate was extremely miserable. He thought that the two transcribed complaints he had used to quell the incident all fell to nothing. Not only did King Fu not express anything, even Duke An did not reply.

There is no other way but to accept the papers and formally try the case.As for handling it impartially, it's really hard to say, he really doesn't know how to handle it impartially.

It is not every time that the yamen of the capital go to court with great violence.

Just like this time, the sufferer is Miss Ye. Miss Ye has no self-consciousness like other little women and ladies in the capital. , I came to hear the trial in person.

But he, the sophisticated Fu Yin, had to think more about it. It's better to finish the trial with a smaller team.

As a result, the yamen outside the government office guarded the yamen servants of each class, and did not let them into the crowd of onlookers.Although there were a few guards on both sides of the hall, these people neither shouted "mighty" nor did they hit the ground heavily with sticks in their hands.

You Chenghui sat in the high hall, with the master standing beside him, and on the other side were two scribes who recorded the confession.

You Chenghui and the master looked at each other, and looked at Miss Ye who was standing in the hall, she was not as troubled and painful as him, she looked very at ease, and there was a woman and a maid following behind her.There is also a person who is said to be in charge of the Qi family, who is guarding outside the lobby door with a serious face.

That was a bodyguard of the Qi family who had become famous in General Huwei, and You Chenghui felt his brain ache again.

In fact, according to You Chenghui's original intention, he really wanted to arrange a chair for Miss Ye and let her sit down.In this way, Miss, you can be more comfortable, and I will not be an official, no, I can reduce the pressure even if it is my lord.

However, although this eldest lady came from a wealthy family, she has no identity, and it seems a little inappropriate to sit in the courtroom.

Behind the two shopkeepers, two yamen servants walked into the court, and the yamen servants withdrew to the side. The two yamen servants kowtowed to You Chenghui in the hall: "The villain pays homage to your lord."

Facing the steward of Prince Fu's Mansion, You Chenghui moved uncomfortably, and asked, "Who is under the hall?"

Ye Xinyan rolled her eyes. Over the years, the way of adjudicating cases has not changed at all. She knows the name of the person being interrogated, but she has to ask again.

"Xu Jirong, the treasurer of the villain Xinglong Bank."

"Little man Liu Gu, shopkeeper of Changlong Bank."

You Chenghui: "Are the two of you convicted?"

"My lord, I have learned from you. The villain has always been law-abiding. I really don't know what crime I have committed."

The two are stewards of Prince Fu's Mansion, so of course they have a head and a face, if not in court, because of the defendant's position, You Chenghui would have to give him a smile when he saw him.

But this is a court, and there is always something to do.

Although the two of them didn't hit the ground with their heads again and again, they put their hands on the ground, bent down deeply, and cried out repeatedly.

These are all common routines, You Chenghui naturally knew it in his heart, and continued to ask: "Today, a woman from the Ye family sued you two for stealing the Qi family's skills and making equipment that belonged to the Qi family to make huge profits. Is there such a thing?" ?”

The two shopkeepers raised their heads, and the man named Xu Jirong arched his hands and raised it high above his head, shouting: "Your Excellency, I have wronged you, I have wronged you! The things sold in the two shops of the villain are all the same. It was purchased from our own workshop, or purchased through legitimate channels. A villain dare not lie, adults can send someone to check the account books in the store, and the accounts of all items in the store are clearly remembered."

You Chenghui took a look at Ye Xinyan, feeling even worse in his heart, as expected, he was heading in the direction he was struggling with.

He continued to ask: "The woman from the Ye family sued you for stealing the skills of the Qi family's machinery workshop for the construction equipment recently sold in the shop of the two of you. Do you have anything to say?"

After hearing the question, the two stewards both looked as usual, very calm, and did not look at Ye Xinyan.

Xu Jirong replied: "My lord, the villain's shop does sell construction equipment recently, and the business is good. But those things are made in our own workshop, and have nothing to do with the Qi family."

You Chenghui glanced at Ye Xinyan again, this was the crux of the trouble he found.

Those utensils were indeed made by the Qi family first, but once they enter the market, who can control others from imitating them?
The point is, if it is just one or two imitations, or only a small amount is sold, it will not affect Ye Xinyan's business, so it will be fine.Or the Qi family has been in business for a long time, and Ye Xinyan's appliance business has already earned enough silver taels, so it doesn't matter if it is imitated or sold by a large number of retail investors.

But who is Fu Wang?Fu Wang has been in charge of the Ministry of Science and Technology for so many years, with a large number of talented people and a huge team of craftsmen. It seems that Fu Wang's workshop produces more utensils than the Qi family's own production, and the Qi family workshop has just started.

If things go on like this, Fuwang's workshop is bound to become more customer-oriented and dominate the equipment manufacturing market. The Qi family, the original owner, can only stare blankly.

The laws of the Great Xia Dynasty did not restrict people's defense equipment. If not, wouldn't it mean that only one family could make and use all the equipment. This kind of restriction was extremely detrimental to the development of fortifications and agricultural work in the Great Xia Dynasty.

It can be said that Miss Ye will suffer from this boredom.
