Chapter 217
Peanut has great strength, so he moved a box by himself, while the longan and chestnut were carried by himself.

The box was opened, and the tangy sandalwood mixed with the fragrance of ink came over.

Yingruo probed to look, but couldn't bend down.

Hongzao picked up a picture album and handed it to her.

Yingruo didn't pick it up, and waved her hand, "Don't look at it! Go tell your mother, I want to give a thank you gift to the magistrate. Ask her to find a few people from the front yard to carry all three boxes to the magistrate's yamen. Lord Zhifu, lest that narrow-minded person always talk to me in a resentful tone. In the past three years, how have I forgotten him?"

The girls covered their mouths and laughed.

Yingruo sighed, "Do you think that all the noble girls in Mizhou City want to marry him? This is too hateful."

"Girl is wrong, it's attractive." Longan laughed.

"If you attract women's love, don't you attract men's hate!" Walnut came in from the outside.

Yingruo's eyes brightened, "How is it? How's the situation outside?"

Walnut is the one with the most flexible mind among the five girls, so she is happy to leave all the outside things to her.

Walnut asked Chestnut for a cup of tea before replying: "The An family's banquet ended early. Because the magistrate didn't leave a meal, and the rest of the guests are not stupid, how can they stay long?"

"Girl, let's go back to bed and lie down!" Longan suggested.

Yingruo also felt that it was difficult, so she supported her hand, turned back to lie down on the couch, and motioned for Walnut to continue talking.

Walnut sat on the stool beside the bed, "As soon as the banquet of the eldest son of the An family was over, he hurried to the magistrate's yamen with a solemn expression. As for the An family's treatment of Miss An Wu, it has not yet come down, only heard that she was temporarily locked up in the ancestral hall." The An family's third wife, Mrs. Li, also drove to the magistrate's yamen just now."

"That's not right!" Chestnut interjected, "The girls from our Chu family were hurt by their family. What are they doing in the government office? Girl, is their family afraid of us handing over the papers?"

Yingruo raised her eyebrows, "What? When I sue for an addiction?"

Earlier, if she hadn't been in a hurry to get rid of the peanut oil, she wouldn't have been in the limelight!

"Slaves go to see how the cakes in the kitchen are doing." Chestnut said, slipping away with oil on the soles of his feet.

Walnut said: "I actually agree with Chestnut's statement, An Jia's reaction is indeed not right."

Longan smiled, "If you knew how nervous the prefect was about our girl's injury, you wouldn't feel wrong."

Yingruo rolled her eyes, "You're looking for a fight, aren't you?"

Longan shrank her neck, "I'll pinch the girl's legs."

Walnut shook his head, "Except for the adult's attitude towards our girl, I still think it's wrong."

Yingruo glanced at Walnut appreciatively, "I feel it too. After all, An's family is the home of the Taifu. Even if Taifu An is no longer in court, Uncle An's family still holds a high position. Brother Guangyu's status as a magistrate is incomparable among ordinary people. He is a great official in his eyes, but in the eyes of the An family, he should be insignificant. Therefore, even if Brother Guangyu turned his face because of me, they should have nothing to fear. There is a second-rank official. A little bit of mischief is enough to make Brother Guangyu, the magistrate, in a state of distress. So, I can’t figure it out, I can’t figure it out!”

Therefore, the biggest possibility is that Li Guangyu still has something that makes the An family afraid.

Could it be related to that fourth prince?
Walnut said: "Miss, do you want to find out what the big cousin said?"

Yingruo shook her head, "Cousin Jian is very principled. In the past, he wished he could use the rules to trap me. Therefore, since a person who is so strict has already trusted him, he will not feel betrayed." Heart-to-heart. If you torture him, you may not be able to pry his mouth open."

He was injured today, he must know what Li Guangyu did to her, but he didn't use the rules to suppress her, what does that mean?
That person is already Li Guangyu's diehard loyalist.

Thinking about it this way, it seems that everyone around her has been bought off by Li Guangyu.

In less than four years, how many things has she missed?

Walnut nodded, "After all, it is in our interest, and the girl should not think too much. The noble daughters and servants of Mizhou City have already sent people to investigate. We will hear back soon."

At this moment, Hongzao came back, brought Zhujia and the others, and carried away all three large boxes.

"The girl really doesn't want to keep any?" Hong Zao confirmed again and again.

Yingruo buried her face in the pillow and waved her hands.It was originally prepared for someone, but now it is too late to carry it to him.

But she didn't know that the situation in the government office was changing.

An Zhiheng looked at the person behind the desk, "Give Sister Yan another chance! Speaking of it, it's just a quarrel between little girls. You watched Sister Yan grow up, and her nature is not bad."

Only then did Li Guangyu look up from the file, and shot his eyes coldly.

An Zhiheng's scalp became tense from his stare.

On Li Guangyu's side, just a slight raise of his hand, a stack of files hit his chest, and then fell to his feet.

"Look! How many cases are committed by truly vicious people. Stupid people are not bad, but they are a hundred times more heinous than real bad people when they do bad things. Just because of high-sounding reasons, because of unintentional mistakes, and Can you be exonerated?"

An Zhiheng was speechless, but he sighed heavily in his heart.

In the past, they were friends who talked about everything without distinction of superiority or inferiority, but now, there is still an invisible gap between the two of them.Maybe in the future, this gap will become bigger and bigger.

But there are some things that the person in front of him can lose, but he cannot lose.

In this world, there is only one Li Guangyu, but compared to Li Guangyu, there can be many An Zhiheng.

The former is irreplaceable, but the latter can be replaced by many people one after another.

Just at this time, Mrs. An San's request for a visit came from the door.

Li Guangyu calmed down, "Take him back! Tell the Taifu that I won't take An Rouyan's life this time because the An family has protected me for so many years. But it's only this one time! You guys How the An family deals with her is your An family's own business, and you don't need to report to me."

"Don't worry! There will never be a next time." An Zhiheng patted his chest and assured.

Li Guangyu lowered his head and continued to read the file, "Your injury is not fully healed, so you can take care of it at home! I don't need to come here for the time being."

An Zhiheng gave a wry smile, turned and walked out.

Li Guangyu said without raising his head: "To you, you may feel that I have changed and become ruthless. But you are still the same An Zhiheng, with a passion for love and righteousness. But have you ever thought about it? Is it better to change? Or not to be better? You are the eldest grandson of the An family, and Taifu An hopes that you will be a capable minister and lonely minister in the future. You are talented, and being a capable minister is no problem. But you should have a constant temper Is it really suitable to be a lonely minister? Today, when your grandmother cries, your heart softens. So, what about tomorrow?"

 The hated brother Guangyu asked: Have all the votes been cast?
