Qiu Yuanwai was detained by the Hefu, and the gate of the Qiufu and other parts of the mansion were sealed, and they were inspected and guarded. Because of the seriousness of the case, and the county magistrate Shan hanged himself, he had to wait for the new county magistrate to take office or the provincial government to send a commissioner to conduct a trial.Now Putai County is temporarily in charge of government affairs by Chu County Prime Minister.

Tang Yaoju's wife, Huang Yinhe, was rescued safely and temporarily returned to the Tang family. However, she was still required to testify in court when the case was officially heard. Temporarily placed in the Nursing Home, and not allowed to disperse until the trial of the case is over.These girls have lost their innocence. Although they have regained their freedom now, if they return to their hometowns in ruins, the gossip in the village will go without saying.

In view of this, the Chu County Prime Minister has promised them that after the trial of the case, if there are those who do not want to return to their hometown, they can be allowed to choose their own marriages, and those who do not want to marry can be placed in the Nursing Home as their home.The Nursing Home in Daming was opened in the seventh year of Hongwu. Widows, widows, widows, lonely, poor, sick and helpless people, as well as craftsmen, soldiers, and other old, weak, and disabled people were all adopted objects. There were also medical officers in the hospital who were in charge of diagnosis.However, there are also those who intend to become nuns, and this involves the management officials of monks and Taoists, and they have to collude with them after the case is settled.

This case has become the biggest scandal in Shandong Province in recent years, but it has made the reputation of Xia Xun, Ji Gang and Gao Xianning. The words of ordinary people in Putai quickly spread, but Peng Ziqi, who took the greatest risk, was only replaced by a hero in this story, and his name was not even spread.

This is of course Peng Ziqi's reluctance to be famous, but it is also because apart from using her as bait to catch enemies, those literati and ordinary people have no room for her to express themselves in the vigorous event that they witnessed with their own eyes.

When something happened here, Xia Xun wanted to go on the road, but he was actually one of the witnesses. Fortunately, he was a student, and he privately explained to Chu County Cheng that he was working for the King of Qi, and there was no delay, so he spent half a day, After making a detailed record and signing it, he took his leave and left.

The Chu County Chancellor, Putai gentry and county school students sent the four righteous men five li out of the county seat, served farewell wine, and talked to each other before returning to the city.Tang Yaoju and Lin Yuqi accompanied the four of them to the ferry.

As soon as they arrived at the ferry, Xia Xun and the others stopped and thanked Tang Yaoju and Lin Yuqi: "Brother Tang, Brother Lin, I will see you off for thousands of miles. There will be a farewell. Please stop here. Qingzhou is not far from here. We There is always a time to meet."

"In this way, Lin will not be far away, and all righteous men will have a smooth journey." Lin Yuqi cupped his hands, while Tang Yaoju paid respects, knelt on the ground, and said: "I don't want to thank you for your kindness, and go well, benefactors." , Tang will remember what happened today."

Tang Yaoju's gratitude was beyond words. Before that, he had already thanked Xia Xun four times with his mother and beloved wife.According to his temperament of Jianghu people, he really wished to form righteous brothers with Xia Xun and others. From then on, they would share life and death, share misfortunes and fortunes together, but after knowing their identities, they feel ashamed and contemptuous, and dare not make friends with other talented masters.

Although Lin Yuqi didn't send someone to help in the battle in time, at the critical moment, it was Lin Yuqi who caught the painful foot of the enemy member and rescued his wife. But this kindness is there.In addition, Chu County Prime Minister is the law enforcer. Although they stood on the same front this time, they inevitably exposed their power to the government.

It is impossible for Chu County Prime Minister to ignore a person who has just moved here and has the ability to correct the crowd to attack the gentry's mansion. Qi expressed his willingness to bring his own people into the Lin Family Fragrance Hall, but the trace of suspicion in his heart still quietly grew.

※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※

The four of Xia Xun and Tang Yaoju talked for a long time again. When the big ferry boat came, the four said goodbye to Tang and Lin, and led the horses to the ferry.

Once across the river and on the shore, Xia Xun said, "Brother is going to Yanggu County to do business. I don't know where Brother Gao and Brother Ji are going?"

Ji Gang laughed and said, "Brother Gao and I are going to Jinan Prefecture to take a look at the Daming Lake where 'snakes don't see, frogs don't cry; long rains don't rise, and long droughts don't dry up'. We have a good friend in Jinan Prefecture My name is Liu Yujue. Brother Liu Xian is a son of a wealthy and gentry family in Jinan Prefecture. We have always been friends with each other. We haven’t seen each other for a long time. When I visit this time, I will stay at his house for a longer time. Township examination next year.

It's a pity that Brother Yang has other important matters, otherwise we could travel together and go to Jinan to study and play.Brother Yang and I hit it off right away, and we really can't bear to break up. We plan to stay in Jinan until the end of the rural examination next year. If Brother Yang has the opportunity to go to Jinan in the near future, we can meet again. Brother Yang and Brother Peng will have a chance in the future When you go to Linyi, you must come to my house and let Brother Xianning and I be hosts. "

Xia Xun smiled, and naturally invited the two of them to Qingzhou as guests. After talking with each other, they bid farewell, got on the saddle and went their separate ways.

"Mr. Peng, what's the matter? You should be happy that we successfully rescued him. Why do you look unhappy?"

Xia Xun and Peng Ziqi rode their horses to the west and walked for a while. Seeing that Peng Ziqi didn't speak much, his spirits were low, and he looked depressed, Xia Xun couldn't help asking.

Peng Ziqi shook his head lightly: "It's all up to you to save people this time. I'm... very useless."

Xia Xun said in surprise: "How do you say that? If it wasn't for you, how could we have brought that single-dog official and the bully to justice? This trip to Putai, Mr. Peng's meritorious deeds, how can we say it was useless? "

Peng Ziqi said listlessly: "It's just useless. If I follow Ji Gang's idea and just find a random girl to come to the house of these things I do, it will work just as well. If you attack a place with a high wall and a deep courtyard like Qiu's mansion, it will be fine." Without you borrowing officers and soldiers from the guard station, it would have been impossible to do it. If you hadn't planned in advance and encouraged all the students from the county school to surround Qiu's mansion, it would be very difficult to catch the witnesses who were quietly transferred by him. There are also Chang Jiaoyu and Wang Xundao. Master, if they and the people of the county hadn't rushed here one after another, the single dog official might have put all his eggs in one basket and lost both sides. In the end, he couldn't tell anymore, and everyone would have to spend a few days in prison.

I thought about it over and over again, it seems that you have already thought about the reaction of the government and even the actions of the people, and it is because of the situation that the single dog official has nothing to do. It's too far away, and I'm full of brute strength, and I'm conceited of martial arts. In fact, if I follow my idea, it will only cause trouble and bad things..."

She rubbed her nose and said embarrassingly: "It's a pity that since the first time I saw you, I looked down on you with black eyes and white eyes. Only now do I know that even if you are a playboy, you are much better than me. I... really no use..."

Xia Xun didn't know whether to laugh or cry after hearing this: "What? She felt that she was being compared to a playboy like me, so she was unhappy? Where did she say that? Why did she always feel like she was belittling me every time I heard her praise me?"

He kicked the horse's belly, caught up with Peng Ziqi, and said seriously: "Mr. Peng, don't underestimate yourself. If it weren't for you, I dare say that these poor girls would never be saved. What's especially rare is that in this incident, someone Fame, someone for profit, someone for power, only you, Mr. Peng, you are the only one who is out-and-out and whole-hearted in order to save people, speaking of which, we should all feel ashamed in front of you."

Peng Ziqi turned his head curiously and asked, "Well, what do you say?"

Xia Xun said: "Gao Xianning and Ji Gang have great reputations and are called righteous men. I don't deny that they have done a great deed, but their motives are actually not pure. The starting point may not be to save people. Ji Gang was born to save people. The reason is that he had an emotional dispute with Gao Xianning, and he wanted to prove his brilliance; after saving people, watching his words and deeds in front of the Putai gentry and students, it is not without reputation, he is always consciously or unconsciously To show off himself, this person has a very serious heart for fame.

Compared with him, his good friend Gao Xianning lacks a lot of scheming, but he is just a stupid person who reads rote books. When he was in the hotel, do you think he has anything to do with the kidnapped sister-in-law of the Tang family? Concerned about compassion, the reason why he is willing to cooperate with us and risk losing his reputation as a student is just to prove the morality and ideals he insists on in his heart, to prove that those who are educated by poetry and etiquette must be gentlemen, and those who enjoy the imperial salary must be gentlemen. Serve the public wholeheartedly.Didn't you see that after the matter was completed, he also looked reticent?In fact, he was very depressed.

And the Prime Minister of Chu County, you can see how fierce and domineering he was when he brought people to arrive, but then when things changed suddenly, he suddenly disobeyed and refused to obey Shan Shenglong's orders, why?He and Qiu Qiu are definitely not involved, but he may not be unaware of what Qiu Qiu, a hypocrite, did. He used to be wise and safe.Because of this, before we had any evidence, he already knew that the evidence must be there. When the wind changed drastically and it was no longer possible for Shan County Magistrate to cover the sky with one hand, he made a decisive decision and immediately turned back.

You see, in this way, not only has he cleared himself so that he will not be implicated in the case, but he has also made a great contribution. The age is enough, and it is inevitable to be promoted. This is a very powerful speculator.Tang Yaoju was trying to rescue his wife, but Lin Yuqi's eyes were erratic and his words were insincere, so he probably had other plans.

In the final analysis, only you and the students of the county school are the righteous people who really have nothing to do with themselves, but don't care about their own interests or their own safety.Flick off your clothes, hide your identity and fame deeply, Mr. Peng is quite ancient and chivalrous, compared to you, we should be ashamed. "

After being praised by Xia Xun, Peng Ziqi's tender face blushed, as if she had been covered with a layer of rouge, which was really pretty. She shyly asked, "What about you?"

"I?"

Xia Xun smiled bitterly: "Me, I'm just a dozen of soy sauce..."

"what?"

"It's nothing, I mean, I was inspired by you, so I am willing to take risks and plan to save people."

Peng Ziqi brushed the hair from his temples, and said in a low voice: "Slick tongue, sweet talk, can deceive people."

She didn't notice at all, her behavior was already full of femininity, as long as she was not blind, everyone would know that she was a woman.

Xia Xun couldn't help being stunned when she saw her daughter's family style suddenly revealed. Peng Ziqi glanced at him and said unknowingly: "What are you looking at?"

Xia Xun quickly looked away and said, "It's nothing. By the way, I haven't asked about your family's situation. I only heard that the Peng family has a big business and a large population. Can you tell me about your situation?"

Peng Ziqi held the reins of the horse, and said softly: "It's nothing, actually, the population is a bit larger, and I have more than 20 cousins ​​alone. If there is a big ranking of brothers and sisters, I should be ranked..., um, Counting our house, it’s a little less, my mother only gave birth to two.”

"Oh? Are you brother, or..."

"I am..." Peng Ziqi suddenly recalled his current identity, and hurriedly said, "Of course I am an elder brother, and I also have a twin sister."

"Oh? You... and your sister are twins? What does your sister look like, and what is her temperament?"

Peng Ziqi immediately looked at him vigilantly: "What are you doing?"

"I'm bored on the road, so just ask me."

"Oh, she, she..."

Peng Ziqi's eyes flickered a few times, and he said slowly: "Two twins don't necessarily look alike, but... But my sister and I look very... alike..."

"Does she also like dancing knives and sticks?"

"No, she... well, a knitting lady, cooks and does housework, and is proficient in everything. Her temper...is also very gentle, she doesn't leave the door, and she doesn't step in. Don't think my family is as strict as a gentleman's mansion like yours. , but the girls in my family are also well educated and virtuous..."

While bragging about herself brazenly, she cast a few guilty glances at Xia Xun, Xia Xun resisted the urge to laugh out loud, and said solemnly: "Well, for such a good girl, the matchmaker will definitely break the threshold of your house Yes, has anyone agreed?"

Peng Ziqi squeaked, "Not yet...not yet..."

"How could it be? Couldn't it be that this young, beautiful, gentle and gentle girl in your family doesn't leave the door all day long, so that others don't even know that there is such a girl waiting to be married in your family? "

"of course not!"

Peng Ziqi was very angry and said: "Because... because my elder brother is not married yet, she... her younger sister is of course not good at discussing marriage. Let's go, let's go, it's important to hurry!" Go in a hurry.

Xia Xun had calculated the time between Yanggu and Qingzhou, and the time of the return trip was very important to him, so since Peng Ziqi made the trip, Xia Xun stopped talking, and the two of them beat Ma Rufei. One day, when I arrived at the bank of the Yellow River, I stood on the embankment and looked over. The small town on the other side of the river was Yanggu County.

Xia Xun took the lead, raised the reins and climbed onto the embankment, looked into the distance, and thought to himself: "After passing this ferry, you will see that Ximen official. What kind of person is this person?"

He didn't notice that Peng Ziqi's tall waist, who was walking behind him, suddenly softened at this moment. Peng Ziqi stroked his abdomen with a painful look on his face. Because of the weakness of his legs, the horse did not move at all.
