Madam, protect me!

Chapter 113 Song Jiaren's Discovery

Girl Yuanyang came to Song Yu and personally presented her with a sachet she had sewn.

The two were clearly hooking up.

Song Yu received Yuanyang's gift and was no longer sleepy at all. He ran to Li Nuo and showed off: "Miss Yuanyang sewed it for me with her own hands. Does it smell good?"

Although there were girls who secretly gave him gifts when he was in school, Li Nuo was not as shy as Song Yu.

He waved his hand and said, "Let's play..."

The mandarin duck girl left, and the phoenix and the nightingale followed her.

After Fenghuang left, Li Nuo looked at Song Jiaren and said, "Don't listen to her nonsense. Music, chess, calligraphy and painting are of no use. They are all useless. When someone slapped her that time, she couldn't even fight back." No, martial arts is still reliable..."

Li Nuo always felt that girls should learn some self-defense skills instead of playing music, chess, calligraphy and painting.

This not only protects yourself, but also protects others.

Song Jiaren didn't say anything. Li Nuo read the book for a while, thinking about something in his mind. After a while, he stood up and said, "I have something to do and I want to go out."

He walked to the door of Song Mansion and said to Butler Wu: "Go to the county government office."

At this time, another carriage drove towards Yuyin Pavilion.

Nightingale glanced at Phoenix and asked: "Didn't you say that you can make any man fall under your skirt? In the end, you actually have to find him through a roundabout way..."

Hearing this, Phoenix also had a depressed look on his face.

Yuyin Pavilion's brand was given to him, and he didn't have to spend a penny whether he came to listen to music, enjoy dancing, or eat and drink tea. But except for the last time he suddenly came to the door, he mocked her piano skills and made her cry bitterly. , and did not appear again for twenty days.

In the past few days, some people outside have been doubting the authenticity of those rumors.

In desperation, she had to use Yuanyang to find Song Yu's excuse and visit again to silence those people.

Nightingale looked at Phoenix and asked, "Can you do it?"

Fenghuang was furious and said angrily: "Come here, Qin Xing. I think he likes you very much. If you can keep him in Yuyin Pavilion, it will be a great achievement of yours. Really, how could anyone like you like this?" of……"

Nightingale said angrily: "What do you mean?"

Phoenix said in a strange tone: "Literally..."

Yuanyang, who was driving the carriage, looked back and saw that the two people in the carriage were already fighting each other.

Nightingale's skirt was lifted up to her waist, revealing her slender white legs, and Phoenix's bra was torn open, revealing most of her round, snow-white legs...

The scenery inside the car is infinitely beautiful.

At this time, Chang'an County Government.

After not seeing each other for a month, Magistrate Pei's complexion is much better than before.

When he saw Li Nuo, there was obvious panic on his face.

He hurriedly stepped forward, forced a smile on his face, and said, "Why are you free to come here today, Master?"

Pei Zhe was very worried that Li Nuo had come to the county government to review the case. They had already ridiculed the three provinces twice. If they did it again, of course nothing would happen to the son of the Minister of Dali Temple, and he could pack up and get out.

The two talked about old times, and when they saw that he didn't seem to be here to try the case, Pei Zhe felt relieved. He remembered something and said insinuatingly: "Sir, I want to ask you something..."

Li Nuo said: "What's the matter? Tell me."

Pei Zhe looked around and asked in a low voice: "Is the imperial court cracking down on officials having sex with prostitutes recently? I heard that some officials were arrested for this. I wonder if the young master knows the inside story..."

Li Nuo really knew the inside story about this.

Because he is the one who catches people.

These court officials just like to catch people, and the arrest of Liu Shang in Dali Temple was just an accident.

From a moral point of view, of course, officials engaging in prostitution must be condemned.

Legally, it is also expressly prohibited.

But in terms of implementation, the court deliberately made a big loophole.

If these officials who hold a certain amount of power cannot obtain satisfaction through formal channels, then many women from good families will surely suffer.

From a certain perspective, these officials who go to brothels are unlikely to be corrupt and traitorous.

Li Nuo waved his hand to Pei Zhe and said, "Where did you hear that? It's nothing. However, Mr. Pei should avoid going to that kind of place. Even if he is not caught by the court, it would be bad if he contracts any disease... …”

After confirming it from Li Nuo, Pei Zhe felt relieved, and then asked with a smile: "Young Master came to the county government this time, must you have something to do?"

Li Nuo nodded and said: "There is really something that I want to leave to you to handle."

Pei Zhe came over and Li Nuo whispered a few words.

After hearing this, Pei Zhe looked surprised and asked in confusion: "Master, isn't the Phoenix girl from Yuyin Pavilion your woman? Why are you..."

Li Nuo raised his eyebrows and asked, "Who said she is my woman?"

Pei Zhe glanced at him and whispered: "Everyone in Chang'an knows about this..."

Which incompetent guy spread the rumor? Even Pei Zhe knew about it. Fortunately, the lady was reasonable and was not deceived.

He waved his hand and said: "Don't worry about these things for now. If there is no problem with Yuyin Pavilion, it is best. If there is a problem, don't be partial. Just do it business. The point is to capture Fenghuang and a man named Nightingale. Don’t forget to be polite to them during the process..."

Pei Zhe looked at Li Nuo and nodded in understanding.

He knew the tricks these rich kids played with.

But he really didn't expect it to be so fun.

Is this a hero saving a beauty, or some new role play...

…

Yuyin Pavilion.

After Phoenix returned to the room, he looked at himself in the bronze mirror and still couldn't figure it out.

Just now, she and Nightingale were just playing and playing between sisters, but she really couldn't figure out how she would lose to Nightingale.

Appearance, figure, talent... none of them could compare to Nightingale.

If she had to say that she was inferior to Nightingale in one aspect, it would be archery.

Her archery skills were indeed not as good as Nightingale's. After all, she did not have a master who was a master archer, and she had too many things to learn, and it was impossible for her to spend several hours every day practicing archery.

If that guy has unique preferences and likes women with excellent archery skills, then she has nothing to say.

Just when Fenghuang was depressed, Yuanyang walked into the room and said, "Sister Fenghuang, the people from the Chang'an County Yahufang are here, saying they want to check Yuyin Pavilion's account."

Phoenix didn't think much and said, "If you want to investigate, let them investigate."

Major merchants in Chang'an have to pay taxes to the court at the beginning of every month. During this period, the court will send people to verify the accounts at any time, but this is just a routine process. Yuyin Pavilion has no tax evasion and can withstand investigation.

She didn't take it to heart and started pruning a few bunches of flowers on the table.

Half an hour later, Yuanyang walked into the room again and said, "Sister Fenghuang, the person who checked the household accounts has not left yet."

Phoenix put down the scissors in his hand and raised his head with a suspicious look on his face.

There are so many merchants in Chang'an, and it is impossible to check the accounts too carefully. Normally, if a pair of general ledgers are left and they haven't left for half an hour, there must be something wrong.

Could it be that someone is targeting Yuyin Pavilion?

The rapid rise of Yuyin Pavilion has indeed touched the interests of many colleagues. They had been inactive for a while. Could it be that during this time they found out the details of Yuyin Pavilion and started to have an interest in them again.

When Fenghuang walked downstairs, he happened to see an official with a short beard, pointing to the account book and saying: "In June this year, you should have paid 3,065 taels in taxes, but you only paid 3,001 taels." Fifteen taels, fifty taels of tax money are missing. Who is in charge here? Come with us to the county government office."

When Nightingale saw Phoenix coming down, she walked up to her and said, "In June, five hundred taels of silver were omitted from the account, and there was a shortage of fifty taels of tax silver."

Fenghuang looked at the household official and said with a smile: "My lord, I'm really sorry. The omission of fifty taels of tax money is our negligence. We will make up for it ten times. Do you think that's okay?"

The official glared at her and said righteously: "What do you mean? It's your first time offending. When you get to the county government, you can just make up for the missing fifty-tael tax bank. If you commit it again, you can only make up twice as much. What do you think?" Is this officer extorting money?"

Fenghuang said quickly: "This little girl doesn't dare..."

The short-bearded household official said: "Okay, since this is your first offender, come with us to the county office, make up for the missed taxes, and then write a self-criticism. Be careful not to commit the crime again next time..."

His eyes scanned the people in Yuyin Pavilion, and thinking about what Magistrate Pei had told him, his eyes quickly focused on one person.

Tall, with flat chest.

Among so many women, she was the only one with flat breasts.

He looked at Nightingale and asked, "Are you the accountant of Yuyin Pavilion?"

Nightingale nodded.

The household official pointed at her and said, "Then you also have a responsibility and come with us to the county government office."

Although the official in front of her looked businesslike, Fenghuang still felt that there was something fishy about it. After she winked at Yuanyang, she then said to Nightingale: "Let's go, this gentleman said, it's just a trivial matter..."

…

Song Mansion.

Song Jiaren was teaching Li Nuo archery step by step. Song Yu suddenly ran in and said anxiously: "Brother-in-law, stop practicing archery now. Miss Phoenix and Miss Nightingale were taken away by the county government..."

Li Nuo put down his bow, looked at Song Yu and Yuanyang girl, and said, "Don't worry, I'll go to the county government office to have a look."

A moment later, a carriage stopped at the gate of the county government office. Li Nuo got off the carriage and walked into the county government office.

Not long after, Li Nuo walked out of the Chang'an County Government Office, followed by Phoenix and Nightingale.

The business environment in Daxia is actually quite good. Let alone unintentional tax evasion, even if it is intentional tax evasion, the first time will not be too severe a penalty.

Just pay the missed taxes and write something like a guarantee.

Even if he doesn't come, they will be released.

But from Phoenix's perspective, that's not the case.

After she and Nightingale arrived at the Chang'an County Government Office, they were imprisoned. The guarantee letter was written in prison. If Li Nuo hadn't come, she didn't know what the consequences would be.

Without background, even a low-level official can deceive them.

She saluted Li Nuo and said, "I'm sorry to trouble you, sir."

Li Nuo waved his hand and said: "It's a small matter. Remember to pay taxes in full and on time in the future, and there won't be such a thing."

"The slave family understands." Fenghuang breathed a sigh of relief, and then said: "Master, would you like to go to Yuyin Pavilion and sit for a while? The slave family will cook for me personally. Thank you for saving me."

Li Nuo waved his hand again and said, "There's no need to eat. Besides, you can only cook noodles, right?"

It is true that Yuyin Pavilion evaded taxes, and it is also true that Nightingale and Phoenix broke the law.

On top of the code, there are two more portraits.

Li Nuo is still waiting to go back for experiments, so he has no time to go to Yuyin Pavilion for dinner.

Fenghuang watched Li Nuo's carriage go away and let out a long breath of depression.

Last time he praised her noodles for being delicious.

This time he despised her?

Men's hearts change so quickly.

...

When Li Nuo returned to the Song family, his wife was not in the yard.

He picked up the bow on the table and felt for the first time that his arm and the bow were integrated.

Li Nuo took out an arrow, drew the bow and shot.

Whoosh!

Whoosh

He shot several arrows in a row, and the target was empty, with only a small hole at the center of the target.

Li Nuo finally breathed a sigh of relief. There was no need to consider several subjects. Except for a small part of the literature subject, the abilities of etiquette, music, archery, and charioteering were all gathered. The next step was to wait for the imperial examination.

At the gate of the courtyard, Song Jiaren stood there quietly.

Just now, Li Nuo shot several arrows in a row, and the scene of the same position of the target was captured by her eyes.

This kind of superb archery skill could not be achieved without relying on true qi.

He doesn't need to be taught by her.

He obviously knows everything, but in front of her, he pretends to know nothing.

She has heard a lot of rumors these days.

The son of the Dali Temple Minister has never been a fool.

Everything before was just done by the Dali Temple Minister to protect him.

Housekeeper Wu said that he is a good rider.

His archery is also so superb.

Then why does he want her to teach him?

She suddenly thought, when he was afraid of thunder and asked her to coax him to sleep, was he also...
