pungent peasant girl

Chapter 211 Three Months

The aunt who sells food is very busy, but when she heard the names of Yijia Shuyuan and Mr. Meng, she immediately regained her spirits, "I know, I know. Yijia Shuyuan is located near the city in our south city. Go straight down this street, and you will see the largest Wenmofang in the whole capital. Behind the Wenmofang is Yijia Bookstore. Mr. Meng is a celebrity in Yijia Bookstore, and many young masters from wealthy families would like to Send it to study."

"Really? Thank you, ma'am. Then I don't know, what kind of person is that Mr. Meng?"

"Mr. Meng, that's a good person. However, I've heard that Mr. Meng's temper can be very difficult to serve, and he only accepts students with good qualifications." The aunt boasted, "Yes By the way, young master, I can see from your face that you are not from the north."

Luo Ziyan nodded, "Auntie has good eyesight, I'm from Mingzhou."

"Then you are looking for Mr. Meng?"

"I was looking for Mr. Meng because an uncle asked me to look for it."

"Oh, so that's the case. If you go to look for it, you should go early. Once the Shuyuan closes, Mr. Meng won't see any visitors."

Luo Ziyan got it right, and thanked: "Okay, thank you, Ma'am."

Meng Qianyan was stuffed with delicious food, and when he heard the old lady's words, he turned around quickly, "Auntie, please give me a paper bag, and I will wrap up the food."

Luo Ziyan looked at her, "Why are you in such a hurry?"

"Go to Mr. Meng, if there is something to eat, can I eat while walking?"

Luo Ziyan laughed, "Alright, sorry for the trouble, ma'am."

After packing delicious food and paying a few copper coins, Luo Ziyan and Meng Qianyan continued to walk forward.After walking for about half an hour, I saw the Wenmo workshop that the aunt said.

Bypassing the Wenmofang, the gate of the Shuyuan behind it came into view.

The two of them hurried over quickly.

"Who are you?"

As soon as they approached, a guard blocked them.

Luo Ziyan took out the letter with a calm attitude, "My little brother, it's like this, our husband and wife are looking for Mr. Meng Zhiyuan Meng, and this letter was written to him by his old friend."

The guard looked at Luo Ziyan, saw that he spoke and acted decently, and that there was a hint of nobility in his movements, so his tone was also kind: "Then, where did you come from?"

"Mingzhou."

"Wait, I'll ask Mr. Meng."

The guard took the letter and went in quickly. When he came out again, he was already greeted by a smiling face, followed by an old man in a plain brocade robe.

The old man had a childlike face and hefa, and when he came out, he saw Luo Ziyan, "Is it you two?"

The guard hurriedly laughed and said, "This is Mr. Meng."

"Yes, it's the two of us. We are from Mingzhou. This is my wife."

Meng Qianyan blessed him politely, "I have met Mr. Meng."

"Okay, okay, don't be too polite, please come inside."

Following Mr. Meng into the Yi Jia Bookstore, he walked into Mr. Meng's own study.

As soon as the door of the study room was closed, Mr. Meng's polite smile faded away, "Master Luo, if I remember correctly, you should be the young master of the Luo family from Luo's Silk Company in Mingzhou, right?"

"Exactly, Mr. Meng."

Mr. Meng nodded, "Master Wang said in the letter that there was an accident in the Luo family, and you two came to the capital to save people."

"That's right, that's how it is." Luo Ziyan told Meng Zhiyuan all the ins and outs of the matter.

Hearing this, Meng Zhiyuan frowned tightly, "So that's what happened, no wonder you came to the capital in a hurry, deceiving people in the palace is like deceiving the emperor, you will be beheaded charge."

Luo Ziyan said: "But, Mr. Meng, we were framed. I never thought of deceiving the masters in the palace, and we don't have the guts either."

"I understand, I understand." Meng Zhiyuan thought about it, "Well, since the two of you just arrived today, then find a nearby inn to stay. Regarding the case of Mingzhou Weiluo Tailor Factory, I I will ask some friends in private. When I have news tomorrow, I will tell you. You don’t have to worry, but the case of decapitation must be done step by step, and the person should still be there in the meantime.”

"That's great, thank you, Mr. Meng."

"No thanks, Mr. Wang and I have a deep old relationship. I have also heard about the reputation of your century-old Luo family, so I trust you."

"In that case, our husband and wife will not bother Mr. Meng. We will come back tomorrow."

After leaving the Yijia Bookstore, Luo Ziyan immediately followed what Meng Zhiyuan said, first found a nearby inn to stay, and then waited worriedly.

I don't know where Luo Zhen is looking for someone now?how's it going?

His legs and feet are inconvenient, and he doesn't know if he has enough food and clothing.

Meng Qianyan knew Luo Ziyan's mood, so she didn't bother him, and just accompanied him quietly until noon the next day, when the waiter in the shop brought Mr. Meng up.

"Mr. Meng, what's the matter?"

"Hehe, I've already inquired. Your second uncle, named Luo Zhenxun, has a problem with his legs, doesn't he?" Mr. Meng sat down and asked.

"Yes, it's my second uncle."

"Your second uncle is now locked in the prison in Shuntian Mansion, waiting to be punished."

Luo Ziyan frowned upon hearing the sound, "Have you been convicted?"

"That's right, I heard that when your second uncle came to the capital, he recruited everything. He said it was to prevent you from getting the Luo family's property, so he didn't hesitate to destroy the silk shop and the tailor shop."

"It's not like that, he just took the blame for me, for me." Luo Ziyan's eyes became anxious.

Mr. Meng stopped him, "Son, don't worry too much. Let me ask you, your second uncle will not be executed for at least three months."

"why?"

"Because the empress dowager in the palace is about to have a big birthday." Meng Zhiyuan explained: "So, actually, you still have three months to find out the truth of this case and restore your second uncle's innocence."

Hearing this, Meng Qianyan was deeply relieved, and supported Luo Ziyan, "Ziyan, it's okay, don't worry, three months, I believe we have enough time."

Luo Ziyan also calmed down, "Fortunately, fortunately, there are these three months."

"However, son, you two have traveled all the way to the capital, have you found any evidence?"

"This..." Meng Qianyan thought for a while, "Not yet."

"Then you have to hurry up. Whether three months is long or short, if you want to reverse the case, evidence is the most important thing." Meng Zhiyuan reminded: "I can help you, that is, to investigate Inquire about the news, as for finding evidence and the truth, you still have to rely on yourself.”

"Yes, Mr. Meng, we understand."

"Just understand, then act as soon as possible. If there is anything you don't understand, just go to Yi Jia Bookstore to find me."

Mr. Meng left.

Luo Ziyan also stood up, "Qianyan, let's go, let's go out for a while."

"where to?"

"Go to Shi's house and look for Shi Hongyi."
