reborn princess

Chapter 551 Someone Sued
"If I have that little bitch's deed of sale in my hand, do I still need to look for him?" Mrs. Wen Er couldn't help but growl in a low voice. This Liao City is really not a good place, everyone is against her.

Wen Huixin said in a low voice: "The capital city is thousands of miles away, even if it's [-] miles to rush, it will take half a month to get there, and it will take a month to go back and forth. It's winter now. , if we don’t leave, we have to stay in Liaocheng for the New Year. Third uncle doesn’t want to see us, and staying is just an insult. In my daughter’s opinion, we might as well go back to the capital as soon as possible, tell my father about the matter, and ask him to make a decision. "

"Alright, it's better for your father to decide on this matter." Mrs. Wen Er suddenly sneered, "Blood is thicker than water, even if they don't want to admit it, that child is also a member of my Wen family. Go ahead and ask your father to enter the palace to ask for an order to let the child recognize his ancestors and return to his clan. I don't believe that if there is an imperial order, they dare not return the child to me."

As long as the son is in hand, the others... hum!

She hated Sui Youran's mother and daughter for not giving her face in her heart, so she made a decision, as long as her son got her hands, she would kill Sui Youran's mother and daughter!
Wen Huixin immediately showed an expression of admiration, "Mother is right to think about it. If that's the case, then my daughter will go back and pack her luggage immediately."

"Go!" Mrs. Wen Er waved her hand, dismissing Wen Huixin, then leaned back on the big pillow, and raised her hand to pinch her forehead with some nerve-wracking.

Although she was oppressed by her mother-in-law and sister-in-law in the prime minister's mansion, she had never been as shameless as she is now. To Sui's mother and daughter, she felt powerless like a scholar meeting a soldier.

Aunt Cui said softly at the side: "Second Madam, the county magistrate went to Shen's house to have a banquet yesterday, why is he sick today?"

Mrs. Wen Er sneered, "If he doesn't see my people, it proves that there is a ghost! Zhen Fu, you go now, bribe a few people, and let them go to the yamen to complain. Watching at the door, you go and see who the magistrate is who is trying the case? If you have the result, hurry up and come back to me."

"Yes!" Zhen Fu agreed and left.

Aunt Cui whispered from the side: "Second Madam, what do you mean..."

Mrs. Wen Er hastily raised her right hand, and put her index finger to her lips, "Shhh—you can only feel it, but you can't express it in words!"

Aunt Cui took a hissing breath, "No way? How is this possible?"

Mrs. Wen Er took a deep breath, closed her eyes slowly, and said while resting her eyes: "If it's really him, then this one can't be underestimated, he can endure what ordinary people can't bear. "

At the same time, Shen Weilan came to the gate of the yamen, and the prince sent someone to deliver a letter to her, saying that Mrs. Wen Er wanted the government to come forward to snatch the child from her family. Although she already knew the prince's attitude on this matter, she still A little worried, so he came to the Yamen, intending to get the promise from the prince himself, and thank the prince by the way.

Xuan Chen got out of the car first, and then helped her to get out of the car. Turning his face, he saw a large group of people gathered at the gate of the county government office. There was a middle-aged man holding a young man in his hand. The two pushed and shoved Arriving at the gate of the yamen, the middle-aged man grabbed the drumstick placed in front of the Mingyuan Drum, and beat it with a "dong dong dong".

Shen Weilan said to Xuan Chen: "Let's go through the back corner door. Someone complained that the door is not convenient for us to enter."

Xuan Chen nodded: "Alright!"

Because the back corner gate of the yamen is not far from here, Shen Weilan didn't get in the carriage, so she wanted to walk there, but she only took two steps, when the corner of her eyes suddenly caught sight of a person, she couldn't help but stop, and walked curiously Look over there.

Xuan Chen asked puzzledly: "What's wrong? What did you see?"

Shen Weilan's eyes were fixed on the crowd gathered at the gate of the yamen, or it should be said that she was staring at a certain person in the crowd. She recognized that person, and that person was the chief steward of Mrs. Wen's side, named Zhen Fu , and it's Aunt Cui's man.

When she was in the prime minister's mansion, she often saw this man enter the inner house to report things to Mrs. Wen, so she recognized him.

She was puzzled, what was Zhen Fu doing here at this moment?
She turned her face and glanced at Xuan Chen, but she didn't know how to tell Xuan Chen about this matter. Although she didn't leave the door without leaving the door, she shouldn't have the opportunity to know the servant next to Mrs. Wen Er.

Suddenly, she smiled, "I want to go and see the adults try the case."

Xuan Chen narrowed his eyes slightly and thought about it. He has been with this girl every day for the past few years. It can be said that he knows this girl very well. This girl will never do anything for no reason. Everything she does , have a certain purpose.

So, even though he didn't know what kind of medicine was being sold in this girl's gourd, he still nodded, "Okay, then let's go and see the excitement."

While talking, someone from the yamen had already come out, saying that the lord had been promoted, and brought the middle-aged man who complained inside.

The onlookers all followed in. The law stipulates that when the government tries a case, the common people can watch it. Therefore, every time a case is heard in the yamen, many common people will go in to watch.

Xuan Chen and Shen Weilan walked in following the common people watching the fun.

Although the common people can watch the trial of the county magistrate, but they can't get too close, they can only stand here at Yimen.

I saw a person sitting upright in the middle of the court, wearing a black gauze hat and a dark red seventh-rank official suit.

The yamen servant brought in the two who were arguing, and ordered them to kneel down.

The two classes of yamen servants knocked on the water and fire ruthless sticks in their hands, and at the same time shouted: "Wei——wu—"

The prince picked up the gavel in his hand, and slapped it hard, "Who is kneeling in the hall? What's the matter in the hall?"

The middle-aged man quickly kowtowed to him, and said respectfully: "My lord, the villain Zhang San, went to the city today to get medicine for my mother. This kid is a thief. He stole my money."

The young man immediately retorted: "You are talking nonsense, I was walking on the street, and you suddenly came and grabbed me, saying that I stole your money, you are unreasonable!"

The middle-aged man said: "Then do you dare to show me the purse? My name is embroidered on my purse!"

"Bah! You said your name is Zhang San, and I am also Zhang San, and my name is also embroidered on my purse. Why do you have to say that my name is embroidered on my purse?" ?” The young man immediately retorted.

The middle-aged man raised his head and looked at the prince angrily, "Master Mingjian, how could it be such a coincidence? The villain is called Zhang San, and the thief said he is also called Zhang San? Sir, there are a total of three taels of silver in the villain's purse." , my lord can ask him to take out the money bag to see if there is just three taels of silver in it?"

Shen Weilan didn't care to watch how the crown prince sitting in the lobby was adjudicating the case, she just stared intently at Zhen Fu who was mixed in the crowd, seeing him watching the excitement for a while as if nothing had happened, then suddenly turned and walked out, then gently pulled Pull Xuan Chen's sleeve.

Xuan Chen was a little puzzled, he had been paying attention to Shen Weilan all the time, and found that she was staring at Zhen Fu, but he didn't know Zhen Fu, and such a small person like Zhen Fu couldn't reach his eyes.

Seeing her tugging at his sleeve, he asked curiously, "What's wrong with this person?"

Shen Weilan lowered her voice and said: "If I'm not mistaken, he should be from the Wen family, and the person in charge next to Mrs. Wen's second wife is named Zhen Fu!"

Xuan Chen suddenly realized the seriousness of the matter, "You mean..."

Shen Weilan nodded at him, "Aunt Cui recognized me that day, and came to my house yesterday to make trouble. I suspect that Aunt Cui has discovered the trace of this person..."

As she spoke, she pointed to the courtroom.

"In that case, it's really possible." Xuan Chen muttered, and followed Shen Weilan without saying a word.

Zhen Fu walked up to a teahouse without looking back, and walked in.

Xuan Chen and Shen Weilan looked at each other, not to mention that Xuan Chen is smart, even if he is not smart, he will be suspicious when he sees this, so many people are watching the trial in the yamen, only he has seen a few It came out immediately, and came to the teahouse.

Looking at the clothes on this person's body, they are all high-quality southern silk, and the hairpin used to tie his hair is also excellent jasper. Although he is dressed as a servant, he is full of nobility.

Xuan Chen wanted to follow in, but Shen Weilan quickly grabbed him, "It's not convenient for the two of us to follow in. If he is from the Wen family, he might know you."

Xuan Chen thought it was the same reason, so he raised his hand and made a gesture, and then led Shen Weilan into a side alley. After a while, Wu Ming walked over from behind, "My lord, what do you want?" .”

Xuan Chen said, "Did you see the man we followed just now?"

Wu Ming nodded, "I see!"

Xuan Chen thought for a while, there are people coming and going here, and it is not good for him and Shen Weilan to stand here and wait for Wu Ming, it would be weird for people to see him, so he said: "Go to the teahouse and stare at him, look at him What are you doing in the teahouse? It’s a shoe store across the way, let’s go shopping, if you have any news, come and find us.”

"Yes!" Wu Ming took the order and left.

Xuan Chen and Shen Weilan went to the shoe store opposite the teahouse. After the fire at Shen Weilan’s house, everything was burnt out, and naturally all the shoes were burned. It just so happened that everyone needed to buy a few pairs of shoes. In the store, the two picked out several styles of shoes, and then bought several pairs of shoes of various sizes. Shen Weilan didn't give any money, but gave the full amount directly, and told them to send the shoes home immediately.

When the shopkeeper saw that this was a big customer, he was so happy that he couldn't stop talking from ear to ear, so he hurriedly ordered the young man to count and then load the goods into the truck for delivery.

Shen Weilan said quickly: "Shopkeeper, we are tired from walking, how about I borrow this precious place from you for a rest?"

The shopkeeper said politely: "Guest officer, please do yourself a favor, come and make tea quickly!"

Generally, such shops will have a place for customers to rest their feet, and they will greet generous customers with tea.

Shen Weilan and Xuan Chen sat down and waited for Wu Ming while drinking tea. It took about two or three cups of tea. Wu Ming entered the shoe store and gave them a wink. The treasurer's farewell.
