The mistress died of overwork, and after rebirth, she was bad at raising her cubs

Shen Qinglan sat on the chair, looking at the old man kneeling on the ground and trembling, then glanced at Huo Junyan who was shocked, and smiled:

"It seems I don't need to introduce him. Brother Yan should know him, right?"

Huo Junyan naturally recognized this old man. Wasn't he the one who sold the poisonous snake to him that day?

If it weren't for this old man selling poisonous snakes, Huo Junyu wouldn't have nearly lost his life, and Xiao Shanzi wouldn't have been punished and died of his injuries!

Huo Junyan stared at the old man in front of him and immediately kicked him, saying angrily as he kicked:

"You old man, you are so vicious! You sold me a poisonous snake! Now it has killed someone! You are to blame for this!"

"Ouch, ouch... Young Master, stop hitting me. It's no use getting angry at me. I didn't sell you this poisonous snake..."

The old man held his head, lay on the ground, begging for mercy, his voice trembling with fear.

"Who else could it be if not you? You are just being stubborn! Wait until I hand you over to the authorities for investigation! Let's see how you can still defend yourself!"

Huo Junyan was still a child after all, and he was still furious at the moment, so he immediately planned to have the old man tied up and sent to the authorities.

The old man was so frightened that he immediately kowtowed and begged for mercy, saying with a terrified face:

"Young Master, please don't do that! I am just following orders, or, or was it the boy next to you who told me to do this? I am innocent!"

Huo Junyan was stunned, looked at the old man in disbelief and asked:

"What did you say?"

The old man heard this, fearing that Huo Junyan would not believe him, he quickly took out a purse from his arms, handed it to Huo Junyan with trembling hands, and said:

"I dare not lie, sir. This is the reward given to me by the young man who followed you. It is fifty taels of silver in total."

"There are words embroidered on it. I can't read, but, but it should be the name of that young man. Can you take a look?"

When Huo Junyan saw the familiar purse, he recognized it at a glance as the one Xiao Shanzi usually carried with him!

He snatched it away, opened the purse, and saw a small word "mountain" embroidered inside the purse.

Immediately, it was like a bolt from the blue!

Xiao Shanzi once said that this purse was given to him by his sweetheart. He liked it very much, so he always carried it with him!

Under what circumstances would one give away the small mountain along with the purse?

Unless the situation was urgent, he had to make the deal quickly!

At that time, he wanted to vent his anger for Xie Wanying and make trouble for Shen Qinglan, but he was worried about what method to use...

It was Xiaoshanzi who took the initiative to give him the idea, and it was Xiaoshanzi who took him to find this old man!

If you think about it carefully, when the little boy directly said that he wanted to buy the rat snake from the old man, the old man was obviously a little surprised and wanted to say something.

But Xiao Shanzi pulled the old man away and said something, and then the old man sold the snake to them.

Huo Junyan didn't think much about it at the time, but now thinking about it carefully... he was afraid that Xiao Shanzi would have realized early on that the snake was not a rat snake at all, but a poisonous snake, so he pulled the old man away and paid a large sum of money to make the old man change his words!

The old man looked at Huo Junyan holding the purse without saying a word, his face turned pale, and he quickly glanced at Shen Qinglan and the others, kowtowed and said:

"Princess Zhan, I really didn't know that the young man bought the poisonous snake to harm you!"

"The War King is fighting on the battlefield outside, disregarding his own safety so that the people of the Yong Dynasty can live and work in peace. No matter how greedy I am, I will never harm the War King's family for that money!"

When the old man said this, he really meant it.

Shen Qinglan only glanced at the old man, then set his eyes on Huo Junyan, and finally spoke:

"Brother Yan, what do you think of the current situation?"

Huo Junyan looked up woodenly at Shen Qinglan, his eyes red, then sniffed and lowered his eyes, saying somewhat listlessly:

"I wronged my mother. I trusted others wrongly. I..."

As Huo Junyan spoke, he knelt on the ground, kowtowed several times to Shen Qinglan, then stood up and was about to leave.

But Shen Qinglan stopped him: "Wait."

Huo Junyan just stopped walking, without turning back, and asked in a hoarse voice: "Mother, what else do you want?"

"What do you think we should do with him?" Shen Qinglan didn't mind, just pointed at the old man next to him and asked.

The old man shuddered with fear and immediately began to beg for mercy, saying that he would not harm the War King.

Huo Junyan seemed to have regained consciousness at this moment, and spoke word by word:

"He should know how a snake could possibly be sold for fifty taels of silver? And a poisonous one at that?"

"Since Xiao Shanzi spent a lot of money to buy this poisonous snake, he must have bad intentions. I don't believe that you can't see it at your age!"

"Whether he bought the venomous snake to harm ordinary people or the War Palace, he is harming people, and you are an accomplice. You must be punished, so send him to the authorities for investigation."

When the old man heard this, his whole body went limp and he immediately cried and begged for mercy.

Shuwen looked at Shen Qinglan, but Shen Qinglan raised the corner of his mouth slightly, raised his hand and said:

"Do as the eldest master says."

"Yes."

The old man was quickly taken away, and Huo Junyan seemed to have been stripped of all his strength. He greeted Shen Qinglan weakly and left.

After Huo Junyan left, Shu Yu at the side couldn't help but speak:

"Princess, will the eldest master be okay?"

Shen Qinglan shook her head, a satisfied smile appeared on her beautiful face and she said:

"You can still stay calm and deal with that person at a time like this, what could possibly happen?"

If Huo Junyan forgot the old man's wrongdoings and chose to forgive him just because he listened to the old man's words praising the King of War, Shen Qinglan would probably be disappointed in him.

But although Huo Junyan was not interested, he still saw through the old man's method of trying to escape the blame, and handled the matter impartially, which really made Shen Qinglan look at him with a higher opinion.

She said that Huo Junyan was very smart, but she never thought that Huo Junyan could be so smart.

The only reason why he was deceived by that little Shanzi was that he was too sentimental.

People who value feelings will say good things about something and bad things about it.

The good thing is that it proves that he is a kind-hearted person. The bad thing is that others can easily take advantage of his kindness and plot against him.

Huo Junyu, who was standing by, was stunned. He really didn't understand what was going on.

Why did Big Brother suddenly become quiet?

Why does my mother seem to still be praising my eldest brother?

Eh?

No! If my mother thinks my eldest brother is smart, does that mean she doesn't like him anymore? Would she not pass on that amazing archery skill to him?

When Huo Junyu thought of this, he couldn't help but shrink down from the chair, ran to Shen Qinglan, grabbed Shen Qinglan's hand, raised his little head and said very seriously:

"What do you like, mother?"

"Forehead?"
