Chapter 61
Luo Siyun smiled slightly, turned around and opened the bead curtain, and walked towards the antique shelf next to the study.
The Bogu shelf was as tall as a person, and there were three brocade boxes on the top. Luo Siyun took down the brocade box on the far right, opened it, and took out something from it.
Looking at the golden lock in his hand, Luo Siyun took a deep breath.
Turning around and going back to the study, this time he took a few steps closer, then handed the golden lock to him neatly with the palms up, "Here!"
Looking at the familiar golden lock handed to him, Li Xingyi focused his attention on the hand holding it. The round nails were healthy and tender, the fingers were white and delicate, and the palm of the hand was connected to the slender wrist bones. It looked very Weak and weak.
Because when he handed it forward, he stretched his hand a little, and accidentally pulled the sleeve up a little, and a section of Bai Jiu's jade-lotus-like arm was exposed.
Looking at the slender arm, which was only half the thickness of his own arm, and whose skin was so white that the blood vessels inside it leaked out, Li Xingyi doubted very much whether he would break it by exerting force.
Seeing him staring at Jinsuo without moving and not speaking, Luo Siyun tilted his head in doubt, retracted his hand, and glanced at the Jinsuo above.
That's right, it's the golden lock!
He looked at Li Xingyi suspiciously, "What's the matter, have you never seen this golden lock, my lord?"
Is it wrong?
This golden lock has nothing to do with the Duke's Mansion or the financial owner?
Wasn't she wasting her efforts?
Just when Luo Siyun couldn't help but wonder if his efforts were in vain, Li Xingyi came back to his senses, shook his head, and said casually, "I just thought of something!"
He stretched out his hand and motioned for her to bring the golden lock.
Luo Siyun pursed his lips, said nothing, and placed the golden lock on his palm.
When I gave it to him, my fingers accidentally touched his palm.
The delicate and warm unfamiliar feeling on the palm of his hand made Li Xingyi frown subconsciously.
While retracting his hand, he firmly grasped the golden lock, as if trying to suppress that feeling.
It was obviously a careless touch, but the itchy feeling remained in his heart all the time. He thought a little irritably, has this hand never done work?Why is it so soft?
He shook his head, trying hard to suppress the strangeness in his heart, throwing his thoughts behind his mind, and looked down at the golden lock in his hand.
Turning it around, the front of the golden lock was exposed, and he looked at the familiar four large characters and engravings on it.
His fingers were sharpening the four characters on it, and he thought of something. He pursed his lips and raised his head.
He looked at Luo Siyun and said, "What do you want? A contract of betrayal?"
Hey, it's easy to talk to smart people. Look, she just showed a little sincerity and he understood her purpose!
Thinking in a mess in her heart, Luo Siyun didn't show it on her face, but smiled more gently.
"Young master is smart, but I really want to get back my deed of betrayal, and... eliminate my slave status!"
Speaking of slave status, I have to say that the financial owner is a bitch. He ransomed her and gave her a slave status when he could have chosen another identity. Now she has to negotiate terms with him. I am really angry. !
If Li Xingyi could hear his thoughts, he would definitely be dazed.
When did he deliberately choose to be a slave? Luo Siyun's identity is that of a prostitute. If she wants to redeem her body, she must have a bond of sale. If she has a bond of sale, it means that she is a slave.
This was not a deliberate choice on his part. Unless he went to the government to get rid of her, she would no longer be a slave.
But at that time, he still had a lot of official duties, and he had to find the person who was plotting against him. With all this mess, he had no time to eliminate her slave status.
The most important thing is that if he eliminates her slave status, there is no reason to keep her by his side and look at her to solve his own doubts.
I just didn't expect that within a few days of returning to the capital, I would be sent on official business by the emperor.
After all, the Yuzhou incident was coming to an end, and another accident occurred in Qizhou...
Seeing that Li Xingyi was silent, thinking that the golden lock was not heavy enough, Luo Siyun thought for a while and then said, "My maid still knows where that man is!"
In fact, she was not sure, after all, it had been two days, but there must be news when she went to the Yamen.
As for why she didn't mention An An, because Li Xingyi never mentioned it, she subconsciously thought that An An was not important to him.
After all, generally speaking, if you see the child's clothes, you must know that there is a child here, but Li Xingyi did not mention the child at all and focused on the golden lock the whole time. Luo Siyun might have misunderstood.
"where?"
Luo Siyun curled his lips and said, "Young Master has not yet responded to your servant's words!" You want to waste your time!
Li Xingyi nodded, "I will remove the slave status for you before the end of the year! I will give you back the selling contract when the time comes!"
It's not that he doesn't want to give her the bond of sale back now, but that the bond of bondage is needed to eliminate slavery.
The process of eliminating slavery is very complicated, especially the elimination of slavery in different places.
For example, if Luo Siyun wanted to get rid of his slave status, he had to go to the government with his deed of sale and ten taels of silver in advance, and apply to the master who was in charge of the trading of people and animals.
After the chief clerk agrees, it’s still not enough. We have to wait until the end of the month, and according to which place people want to cancel their slave registration in that month, they will send people to different people’s prostitution places to get back the bond that was kept in the yamen.
Luo Siyun's place of prostitution was Lin'an County, Huizhou. People had to be sent to Lin'an County, Huizhou to retrieve the second deed of sale that was hidden in the local government office. After getting it back, they had to compare the two deeds to make sure there were no problems. .
If there is a problem, you have to wait until the end of next month to send someone to investigate until you get the correct one.
The two deeds of sale have arrived, and you are ready to cancel your slavery. Then you have to hand over five taels of hard work fee. These five taels of silver are given to the official who gets the deed of sale for you. The hard work fee required depends on the distance of the area. Also different.
Once the entire process is completed and registered, the slave status will be truly eliminated, which will take at least more than a month.
Hearing his assurance, Luo Siyun didn't delay, and immediately said, "The man should be in the prison of the Yamen now!"
"There is also a woman with me. They are cheating and kidnapping. Their crime is unforgivable. My maid asked Liu Ma to report to the officials to have him arrested!"
Hearing that the man was in the cell, Li Xingyi, who had never expected such an answer, couldn't help but rubbed his forehead.
In my heart, I have decided to remake all the subordinates who have been chasing the man these days.
They were so stupid that they went to jail, and you lost them, you idiots.
"Okay, I got it!"
After speaking, he stood up and walked outside.
He's going to the local yamen!
In his hurry, he completely ignored how Luo Siyun knew about their abduction, and he just wanted to arrest them.
Seeing him walking away in a hurry, Luo Siyun stood there and couldn't help but smile.
Just before Li Xingyi left for a cup of tea, Lu Mei walked in holding the crying An An. When she saw Luo Siyun, she said anxiously, "Girl, I don't know what's wrong with An An. She keeps crying." Woolen cloth!"
