Jia Lian of the Red Chamber, go forward boldly

It's just that the author has arranged the plot according to Xue Pan's older than Wang Xifeng, so I can only write it down like this first.

In the future, I will change it when I have time. (Don't take it seriously, there is no guarantee that it will be changed.) (I escaped first, you guys take it lightly!!!)

☆、Chapter 50

Although it was getting dark at this time, there was no such thing as a nine-to-five commute in the government of this era. As long as someone came to file a complaint, the officials generally had to ask questions.

So the crowd followed to the lobby.

In fact, this case is very easy to hear, because there are too many witnesses, all together, including the trembling shopkeeper who was hiding under the counter, there are a total of twenty or so.

You don’t even need to ask them one by one to get a rough idea.

In addition to witness testimony, Xue Pan, an idiot, did not live up to everyone's expectations. Fan Shen slapped the startle and then frightened him with a few words, and told the whole story like a bamboo tube pouring beans.

Not only that, but he also repeated many unsightly words he just said verbatim.

After Jia Lian heard this, he knew why Wang Xifeng had to sue.

To be honest, Xue Pan is really not particular at all. A lot of swearing, cursing, and molesting words come out of his mouth, such as "Oiran lady", "I love you very much", "the sister in the building" are already considered The elegant ones, the others, are almost unheard of, and they are even louder than those who scold the street in modern society.

Jia Lian couldn't bear such a good temper, and almost beat him up.Fortunately, he still knew the environment he was in, and didn't make any mistakes.

In the end, since the witnesses and the material evidence were convincing, and the suspect himself admitted that he was straightforward, Fan Shen's sentence was also very fast.

That is to say, after being beaten, he had to go three hundred miles away to work as a coolie for two years.

The reason for this is because of the difference in status.

Wang Ziteng is the envoy of the Beijing Camp, with a prominent official position, and Wang Xifeng is a real official lady.After she married Jia Lian, the Jia family was a successor to meritorious service, and Jia Amnesty had a noble title, which could be regarded as an official family.

Xue's family is just an imperial merchant and has no fame. No matter how Xue Pan is a relative, the ones who rob him are also family members of the official family.The crime of robbing the family members of an official is generally very serious, and it does not end with a few beatings and a small fine.

The phrase "officials and officials protect each other" is not just a casual talk of those officials, it is a privilege and guarantee from the system and law.It is not the same as in modern society, where everyone is equal, and whoever breaks the law has the same result.

Xue Pan was naturally dissatisfied with this result.

He started howling as soon as he heard it, Fan Shen didn't care what he was doing, and asked someone to gag him and drag him away. He beat him first, and after the beating was over, he was sent to a coolie three hundred miles away in a few days.

Then naturally it is back out.

Jia Lian thought about it and said goodbye to Fan Shen.After all, he has just tried his case, if he lives here tonight, if someone finds out about it in the future, he may be gossiped about.

But Fan Shen looked at him inscrutablely for a while, and Jia Lian wondered if there was dirt on his face, and then he said, "Oh, I thought you would make some progress after you have been with your uncle for more than half a month. , I didn’t expect that sometimes I would still be quite dumb, um, dumbfounded.”

Jia Lian went crazy, "If you don't hit me, will you die?"

Fan Shen nodded sincerely, "Yes."

"Then pretend I didn't say it." Jia Lian was helpless.

"To be honest, there is nothing to try in your case. If it weren't for you, I would be lazy." Fan Shen stretched his waist and said boredly, "Besides, I have never seen any of the twenty or so witnesses. There are so many witnesses in the case. Your good cousin also admitted it readily. I decided the case verbatim according to the laws of my dynasty. No one can find fault. Of course, give them a Courageous, they dare not find fault with me."

Jia Lian immediately took two steps away from Fan Shen, distanced himself from him.

Fan Shen was surprised, "What are you doing?"

"To save me from being troubled when lightning strikes you for a while." Jia Lian didn't forget that Fan Shen was slapped in the face at the speed of light just now, but after saying this, he kindly reminded him, "Don't talk too much, my Aunt is not easy to deal with."

Judging from the original book, she is a person who doesn't care about other people's life or death, but only loves her son, and what his son does is right, and she only has this one son, after knowing Fan Shen's verdict, she might make trouble.

But Fan Shen immediately retorted, "Ah, then you Jia family and Wang family are easy to bully?"

Jia Lian was speechless.

Jia Shi Wang Xue's four major families are headed by the Jia family!

Jia Lian patted his head, no wonder Fan Shen said he was dumb.

And after Fan Shen finished the sentence just now, he added another sentence, "I'm looking forward to that Mrs. Xue coming to break into my magistrate's office. You know, I haven't met anyone who can The case that reminded me of the mentality, I was flustered with idle time, and my body was about to grow hair. It was a good time for her to come. Trespassing in the government office, the crime can be big or small. But the least is the crime of being exiled for three thousand miles. It's a pity, mother and son can't get together." After finishing speaking, she pretended to shake her head, as if it was really a pity.

Jia Lian rolled his eyes, Fan Shen really lost his image in front of him.

At this time, the gentleman came to report that the eighty sticks had been beaten, and Xue Pan had passed out.

Fan Shen asked the gentleman to watch him carefully, "After a few days when the documents are ready, I will send him to dig stones in the mountains three hundred miles away." The gentleman agreed and went.

As soon as the gentleman left, Hou Song came again. Although he was in a hurry this time, it was not as urgent as before. The place where you live is noisy, go back and have a look."

Before Jia Lian could speak, Fan Shen on the side sighed with deep regret, "This dandy bully is really incompetent."

Jia Lian rolled his eyes violently, no matter which bully he is, no matter whether he reads or not, he knows that government offices cannot be forced into, and it may be a crime of treason.Really when everyone else is stupid.

However, he couldn't ignore Wang Xifeng's place, but he thought of Zhen Shiyin in the hotel again, so he briefly talked about the search for Yinglian, and after Fan Shen agreed, he said goodbye and left.

As for Jia Amnesty, the timing is not good.As long as he said what he wanted Fan Shen to do, Fan Shen would definitely ask why, and he had to give a reasonable explanation.It might take an hour or two to explain, and the current weather clearly does not allow him to stay any longer.

He could only wait for this matter to be dealt with before finding an opportunity to talk to Fan Shen specifically.

Jia Lian went to the inn.

Although there is a Jia family's house in Jinling City, it has been empty for decades, it has been in disrepair for a long time, and the humidity is very heavy. The furniture, bedding, etc. are all unusable, and it is not suitable for people to live in.

They found an inn that specially received dignitaries and dignitaries and lived in it.Behind the inn are small courtyards, but they are still clean.

After Aunt Xue heard the news, she brought more than a dozen servant girls to the hotel where Wang Xifeng and others were staying. Xue Pan finished beating all eighty sticks and was also sent to prison, waiting for other procedures.As soon as the formalities are completed, Xue Pan will be sent to work as a coolie three hundred miles away.

Although Aunt Xue dotes on her son, she is not a fool.Forcibly breaking into the magistrate's yamen, which is tantamount to treason, the Zhen family who almost ruled the sky in Jinling would not dare to do it, let alone her?

If the magistrate was still the same person who had no roots in the previous term, maybe Aunt Xue could ask someone to talk to the magistrate and beg for mercy.

Unfortunately, the magistrate is Fan Shen.

Although Aunt Xue is a woman in the inner house, she often goes out to socialize, and she doesn't always talk about family affairs with those noble ladies, and occasionally talks about official promotion, family background and so on.After all, the honor and disgrace of these women are all tied to the men outside, and the fame and fortune of men are inseparable from the officialdom.

Therefore, he also knew that the Fan family was a family that would give way to the prince by three points.Even if he had the heart, he didn't have the guts to act wildly in front of Fan Shen.

As a last resort, I can only come to Jia Lian and Wang Xifeng first, hoping that they can withdraw the case.According to the principle that the people do not sue the officials and do not prosecute, as long as the case is withdrawn, Xue Pan will be released without charge.

In the hotel, when Aunt Xue saw Wang Xifeng, she took her hand and cried, "For most of my life, I have only such a bastard. No matter what, I will live by him in the future. He has been pampered all his life. If he is really exiled for three Baili, two years later, there is no life left. My niece, I love him a lot, but I never dare to tell him to be disrespectful to his relatives. I always say that after seeing these brothers, sisters and sisters, You must treat each other with kind words and kind words, and you must not be rude. Unexpectedly, now that the flood has washed into the Dragon King Temple, you have admitted the wrong person. But since you have come to Jinling, why don't you send someone to tell us first, so that we can know? "

Aunt Xue didn't think that Xue Pan did anything wrong, she just thought that the person Xue Pan robbed was wrong.If it is a small family of ordinary people, it will be enough to give a few taels of silver, so as not to make such a mess.He also complained that since Wang Xifeng and others came to Jinling, they didn't say hello in advance, causing Xue Pan to admit the wrong person in a hurry.

While Wang Xifeng was busy serving tea and snacks to entertain Aunt Xue, she said with a smile: "Jinling is originally my home, why do you need to say hello when you come to my home?"

Jia's old house is in Jinling, so in a certain sense, their home is in Jinling.How can I say hello to others when I go back to my own home?

Wang Xifeng was a smart person, she could understand what Aunt Xue was saying to complain about her.

If these words were said by Jiamu or Mrs. Xing and Mrs. Wang, then she would have to suffer a little bit of grievance and swallow this breath.But Aunt Xue?

Although they both had the surname Wang, one married into the Xue family and entered the Xue family's ancestral grave after his death, while the other married into the Jia family and entered the Jia's ancestral grave after his death.Although the Xue family and the Jia family are relatives, each family is in charge of their own affairs, and there is no reason to ask someone with a foreign surname to take care of the Jia family's affairs.

The so-called filial piety is only to parents, grandparents, etc. There is no law that stipulates that aunts who are married to their natal families must also be filial.

Therefore, Wang Xifeng was not afraid of him.Aunt Xue can only play the emotional card.

Aunt Xue couldn't help but choked when she heard Wang Xifeng's words, she paused her hand that was wiping her tears, and asked, "I think it's wrong," she had to give in temporarily for the sake of her son, and then said, "I know you've suffered too. There are a lot of grievances, but you see, he is still young, and he has grown up so big. Just now someone said that he was beaten and passed out several times. I think, no matter how wronged you are, he suffered this beating , should also be dismissed. It is better to withdraw the case, and we will still be amicable relatives in the future."

Listening to Aunt Xue's words, and thinking about Xue Pan's unsightly words that humiliated her, Wang Xifeng's face turned cold instantly, "Auntie, it's not that I want to refute what Auntie said, but Cousin Xue is too lawless... .”

"I know, I know everything," Aunt Xue cut off her words and cried without waiting for Wang Xifeng to finish, "Why don't I know what you said? I just think that he is still young and his body is weak, and he will wait two years before he grows up." I just need to teach some more. If the restraint is severe, which one can I rely on for the rest of my life?" After speaking, I burst into tears, "I don't have to worry about this wickedness for a day." Crying again, "My son Ah, why do you have such a hard life", weeping with tears all over your face.

Wang Xifeng frowned, still young?Xue Pan and Jia Lian were born in the same year, only one month younger than Jia Lian. Now Jia Lian is working hard for the future of Jia's family, while Xue Pan is robbing the women of the people in Jinling City. The contrast is hard to see.

Furthermore, what is a life-suffering son?Could it be that she did something wrong?

"My niece, it was he who made a mistake this time, please see that we both have the surname Wang, let this go?" Aunt Xue begged again, "Don't worry, as soon as he gets home, I will take care of him." Scold him, tell him to see people clearly in the future, and not dare to do nonsense again."

After finishing speaking, without waiting for Wang Xifeng to speak, his knees softened, he slid off the chair, and knelt down facing Wang Xifeng.

Wang Xifeng was taken aback. Although she didn't have to listen to Aunt Xue's words, she was an elder after all. If word spread outside and forced the elders to kneel to her, her reputation would be extremely bad.

Mang Ye knelt down face to face with Aunt Xue, held Aunt Xue's arm, trying to pull her up, but Aunt Xue refused to get up, "When did you withdraw that case, when will I get up again."

Wang Xifeng just didn't let go.

In addition to being wronged, it was also because Jia Lian handled this matter single-handedly, and it was Jia Lian who vented his anger for her after running around.

If he agrees now, wouldn't Jia Lian's efforts be in vain?Didn't Jia Lian become a waste of time?At this time, Aunt Xue's complaints are still falling, isn't it a thankless effort?

How could Jia Lian's heart not be cold?Wouldn't the relationship between the two of them finally ease down to the bottom again?

In everything there is a close relative, Wang Xifeng is not willing to offend Jia Lian, who has relied on her for the rest of her life, for the sake of a relative whom she has rarely seen for 800 years.

It's just not good to kneel like this, so I called Ping'er Shun'er to come over and pull Aunt Xue up, but Aunt Xue was holding on to the legs of the table and would not stand up, so she asked Wang Xifeng to withdraw the case, and the servant girl she brought also stopped her intentionally or unintentionally. Ping Er Shun Er.

Aunt Xue just got up when Jia Lian came home.

After hearing Wang Xifeng's retelling, Jia Lian only said one sentence to Wang Xifeng: "The case has already been judged. If we want to withdraw it now, then we will be accused of false accusation."

This case has entered the execution stage at this time. If it is withdrawn, according to ancient customs, the plaintiff will be accused of false accusation.

This is a crime specially laid down in ancient society to prevent ordinary people from suing at will.

If this charge is seriously pursued, it will be a little bigger than Xue Pan's attempt to rob the official lady. You can't treat the government like a monkey.The punishment is also more serious. "Three years in prison" means three years in prison.

Moreover, after being imprisoned, even if there is a stain on the conduct, it will be more difficult to pass the imperial examination in the future.

Wang Xifeng was already inclined towards Jia Lian in her heart, and after hearing this, she rejected Aunt Xue's proposal without hesitation, "It's not that my niece doesn't know what to do, it's just that if the case is withdrawn, then Master Fan will ask Lian's second master for a crime of falsely accusing a good citizen." , what should our second master do? Is it really possible to go to jail? Besides, there are all witnesses and evidences for this matter. The servant girl who followed me that day, the servant girl of your family, and the shopkeeper of the rouge shop Second, there are passers-by who pass by there, they can see clearly, even if they want to withdraw, they cannot withdraw."

After hearing this, Aunt Xue looked up at Wang Xifeng and Jia Lian, "I've heard that you and Mr. Fan came all the way and have a very good relationship. If you go and beg him, he won't pursue the matter. "

"Hmph," Wang Xifeng's face was completely gloomy. Apart from her son, her good aunt didn't care about the life and death of other people, including her relatives. If that was the case, why did she still give her face?Jia Lian is her reliance, but Aunt Xue is not.

Wang Xifeng's study of history in the past few days has been fully realized, and he snorted coldly and said: "Auntie's words are bad. The law clearly stipulates that if you make a false accusation, you must go to jail. It's true that we came with Mr. Fan, but the court law Here is the law, even Mr. Fan can't play favoritism. Auntie, please go back, I will never withdraw this case."

At this time, although Wang Xifeng also felt that Xue Pan's sentence was severe, she did not turn back when she opened her bow.If she had to choose between Xue Pan and Jia Lian, she would undoubtedly choose Jia Lian.

Furthermore, the plaintiff in this case is actually her, and Jia Lian is only acting on her behalf.If she was to be convicted of false accusation, it should be her own.

Even if Fan Shen would not convict her of false accusation, she would not carry such a charge on herself and become a target for others to attack her.

Seeing that neither of them let go, Aunt Xue wiped her tears, said "then I can only write letters to Beijing", and left.

Jia Lian snorted coldly, writing a letter to the capital?Nor can I write letters to heaven.

But the Jia family's reaction is easy to guess. The Wang family really doesn't know how to choose, after all, one is his own sister and the other is his own daughter.The younger sister is married to the Xue family, and the daughter is married to the Jia family, so neither side is easy to offend.As for the daughter's marriage, there is actually a Mrs. Wang...

But these are just Jia Lian's guesses, how Wang Ziteng will choose, we can only wait for the result.

But no matter what, Xue Pan must be exiled.

☆、Chapter 51

As soon as Aunt Xue left, Jia Lian encouraged Wang Xifeng a few words, told her that she had done a great job, and after expressing his appreciation for her, he found a secluded room and rested.

Wang Xifeng was full of joy at Jia Lian's praise at first, thinking that the two had reconciled as before, and they would be able to sing together as husband and wife immediately.But later seeing him going to sleep alone again, he was overjoyed and immediately poured a basin of cold water, his whole body was soaked in cold, and he was stunned on the spot, unable to recover for a while.

At this time, Qin Keqing happened to come from the next door. Seeing that Wang Xifeng didn't seem particularly happy, she asked Ping'er. Ping'er pointed to the side room and said in a low voice, "Second Master went to sleep alone again."

As for why Jia Lian always insisted on sleeping alone, not only Wang Xifeng couldn't figure it out, even Ping'er and others couldn't figure it out.Ping'er was still thinking in private, did Jia Lian have some unspeakable secrets?So you dare not have sex with her girl?But he dared not ask in person.

When Qin Keqing heard this, she rolled her eyes and asked Ping'er in a low voice, "Are you alone again?"

Ping'er looked at Wang Xifeng who had been standing still in the house since Jia Lian left, nodded and said, "He's alone again, there is no one else."

Qin Keqing smiled and asked Ping'er to do her own work, while she came to Wang Xifeng's side, gently grabbed Wang Xifeng's hand, and when she recovered, she laughed softly: "Sister-in-law is such a smart person, why bother with others? If you ask me, the second master may be tired. After riding a horse for a day, and running back and forth, even his body can't stand it." Pointing to the yard next door, he said with a smile, "My uncle is also resting now. He got off, and told me not to disturb him. I have nothing to do by myself, so I came to talk to my sister-in-law. "

Wang Xifeng's face changed from gloomy to sunny after saying a word, took Qin Keqing's hand, and sighed: "This time, if you hadn't been with me all the way and persuaded me with those kind words, I really don't know what I would do."

After finishing speaking, my nose was sour, and the circles of my eyes were red, and I was about to cry.

Qin Keqing had to say a few words of consolation and explanation.

Besides, Jia Lian slept until the next morning, thinking about Jia Amnesty in his heart. After breakfast, he hurried out to the magistrate's yamen.

This time, Fan Shen was already waiting for him at the Yamen.As soon as he arrived, he first told about Xue Pan. Although Xue Pan was beaten, he sent someone to find a doctor and took medicine.

Afterwards, Xue Pan talked about Yinglian's case. He probably had already found out her whereabouts and was just waiting to be rescued.

After that, he asked again: "You eat delicious food and drink hot food every day in Yangzhou. Your good aunt and good uncle can't wait to put all the good things in the world in front of you. If you don't have something to do, you can't think of me." All right, but you came to me suddenly, you must be asking me for something, tell me, what's the matter."

"How about Yinglian?" Jia Lian put Jia Amnesty aside when she heard that Yinglian had news.The more Yinglian is in the hands of the kidnapper, the more she will suffer. The most important thing is to rescue Yinglian first.

Fan Shen looked outside the door, saw no one around, pondered for a moment, and said, "This matter, if you say it's easy to do, it's easy to do, if you say it's not easy to do it, it's not easy to do it either. It just depends on how you choose."

"Oh?" Seeing that there was something in Fan Shen's words, Jia Lian quickly straightened up and asked vigilantly, "Could it be that the kidnapper has any background?" Apart from this, he couldn't think of any reason for Fan Shen's hesitation.

Fan Shen nodded, "You guessed right."

Jia Lian frowned suddenly, "Tell me, I want to see which high-ranking official is behind this matter of cutting off children and grandchildren."

No matter who this high-ranking official is, he will definitely fight to the end.

As a modern person, no matter how short of money those people are or what reasons they have, he cannot accept that they use this method to collect money.

A girl's life and a family's happiness were all ruined because of the few hundred taels of silver they wanted.

"Behind those people," Fan Shen couldn't see any joy or anger on his face, he just repeated in a flat tone, "there are shadows of these people." While speaking, he wrote three words, "two, three, five .”

Almost all of the three princes participated in it, because it was the fastest-growing business.

The abducted girl, after being transferred and taught in three to five years, is worth eight hundred and one thousand silver.It is almost a no-cost transaction with extremely high profit margins, and no one can be tempted.

Jia Lian looked up to the sky and sighed, sure enough!Then he got up suddenly and stared at Fan Shen, "Since you say that, you must know where Yinglian is, right?"

Such three people are so indifferent to human life and the happiness of others.He couldn't imagine what they would do after they took that position.

But the ridiculous thing is that not only him, but even the emperor had no choice.

Fan Shen also stood up with a serious expression, "You must go? You must know that taking money from someone is like killing their parents. If you go and cut off their money, those three will hate you to the bone if they find out. .Your future will be extremely difficult."

Jia Lian looked Fan Shen up and down as if he didn't know him for a while, then smiled.

"Hate? Master Fan, don't you think this is ridiculous? The ones who should really be hated are those abducted girls! They are girls who should grow up safely, marry a good man, have children, and live a peaceful life." Children! Those parents who were separated because of their own greed! Those mothers and fathers who lost their children every day and almost cried blind! They are qualified to hate and resent. Those People, why do you hate, and why do you complain? Is it because they don't treat people as people, but as objects that can be bought and sold at will?"

Fan Shen looked at the agitated Jia Lian, sighed softly, remained silent for a moment, and asked, "Are you really going?"

"Why don't you go?" Jia Lian stared at Fan Shen, trying to see through him, "Is it because of this wealth? But Master Fan, we are human beings first, then husbands, sons, fathers, and officials. If so Human nature is gone, how can we talk about educating the people? How can we talk about being an official to benefit one side? We can’t even be our own masters, so how can we talk about being the masters of the people?"

Jia Lian took two steps forward and looked closely at Fan Shen. For the first time, he hated Fan Shen's theory of being an official at leisure.

"Lord Fan, have you seen Zhen Shiyin's tragic situation? Since you agreed to look for Yinglian, you should have seen it. How is it? They are a good family, father is kind, son is filial and wife is virtuous. They have such a leisurely life, just because of that kidnapper, It's all ruined. Did you see the wound on Mrs. Zhen's forehead? That's where she wanted me to save her daughter and kowtowed to me. She only kowtowed once, you know? On the way, my head bleeds just once. I can't stop it. Mr. Fan, one child, one family. How many children have been begged for so many years? How many times do those parents feel when they lose their minds? Sad? Those children leave their parents, I don't believe they don't cry, and don't want their parents? People's hearts are full of flesh. As the prefect of Jinling, Master Fan doesn't have a little bit of compassion? Those are all you You have the responsibility and obligation to ensure that the people under your rule live a happy life. But now, in order to protect yourself, you want to be your idle official, and you don’t want to take care of anything, and let them fall into pain and ignore you. Master Fan ..."

Jia Lian wanted to say again, "Are you worthy of those who trust you?", but before he could finish, Fan Shen turned his head and looked outside the door.

Jia Lian stopped talking and took a deep breath, Fan Shen is an ancient man after all.

He and him, the difference between the two of them is probably bigger than the Pacific Ocean.

But even if it would offend the three princes, he would still do it.

As a human being, some things should be done regardless of the reason and consequences.

After Jia Lian calmed down, he said, "I know Mr. Fan doesn't want to take care of this matter. It's just that I don't have to ask you to come forward this time. You just need to tell me where those people live, and the rest, I will handle it. They are not as good as animals, and I cannot follow them. They are not human, but I am. They are cruel, and I can't bear it. You are afraid of them, but I am not. If you don't save them, I will go."

Jia Lian took two quick steps, came in front of Fan Shen, and looked at him carefully again, with a slightly round face, thick eyebrows and big eyes, a blue robe and a scholar's hat, a standard image of a feudal scholar-bureaucrat.

After a few more glances, everything that this person brought to him during these days, whether it was laughter or anger, will disappear between heaven and earth from now on.

The two may not have had the chance to meet again since then.

Even if they meet, they may be colleagues, enemies, or helpers, but they will not be friends alone.

"Lord Fan," Jia Lian said after looking over, feeling sad for a while, "please also tell me the address."

Since then, he has been his idle official, and he has done his conscience.

"You," Fan Shen turned his eyes and stared at Jia Lian's profile, hesitantly asked, "You won't come again?"

Looking at the empty door, Jia Lian smiled melancholy, "The Jia family's old house is in Jinling, how could they not come here again?"

He should have known earlier that he would never have friends in this day and age.

Before, it was his wishful thinking.

"Hey, you are young after all." Fan Shen sighed, then supported Jia Lian's shoulder, and said, "Look at you, if you leave today, you probably won't talk to me anymore."

Jia Lian took two steps back, pushed Fan Shen's hand away, and said coldly, "Master Fan is wrong, our hometown is in Jinling, we will come back later."

At that time, Fan Shen would most likely no longer be the prefect of Jinling.

Then, ignoring Fan Shen's stiff expression, he urged: "Master Fan, please tell me the kidnapper's address. In the future, I will tell those girls and tell them to remember your kindness."

Fan Shen's expression became even stiffer. Jia Lian waited for a while, and seeing that Fan Shen had no intention of speaking, he turned around and left, "Since Mr. Fan doesn't want to speak, I'll go and find out myself."

"Stop, here is the address." Seeing this, Fan Shen hastily spoke out to stop him.

Jia Lian paused, turned to look at him, and said in a business-like tone, "I also ask Mr. Fan to enlighten me."

"You're really stubborn," Fan Shen stomped, "Did I say I'm not going?"

"Ah?" Jia Lian was stunned by one sentence, what does it mean?

Fan Shen's face was flushed, and he didn't know whether he was angry or annoyed, and shouted: "What did I say? Huh? What did I say? You just look like you're going to die? When will I say no?" Saved? Did I say I'm not going? I just want to tell you that this matter has something to do with the three princes. If you want to participate, just weigh it carefully. You have no fame. In case of any accident, I can't explain to your uncle! Did I say I'm not going? My character is so bad that I can't even compare with you, a little kid? You've heard that wind is rain, are you planning to break up with me? "

Now Jia Lian is stupid, "You, don't you say you can't go?"

"When will I say no more?" Fan Shen was angry, "Do you want me to repeat what I said?"

"Uh, that's unnecessary." Fan Shen has a pretty good memory, he said he didn't say it, probably he just didn't say it.

Jia Lian thought about Fan Shen's words carefully again, it seemed that he was only saying that this matter had something to do with the three princes, and he really didn't have anything to say.

Jia Lian blushed, well, he was the one who got excited.

However, Jia Lian stared at Fan Shen hesitantly again, why did he feel that what Fan Shen said was deliberately trying to distract him?After all, this guy has done a lot of this kind of thing.

Fan Shen didn't feel at all that he had done something wrong, and he didn't feel any guilt, and asked, "I'm saying this, are you sure you want to go?"

"Of course I'm going," Jia Lian really felt that Fan Shen's face might be comparable to the walls of Jinling City, but the matter of rescuing the girl has nothing to do with Fan Shen, so of course he's going.

"That's just right, your people will use me as an envoy." Fan Shen made a request without hesitation.

Well, Jia Lian is sure, Fan Shen's face is thicker than the walls of Jinling City.

It's just that there is no one in the prefect's yamen in Jinling?Why use his people to envoy?Is it another temptation?

"Hmph," Fan Shen snorted coldly in response to Jia Lian's question, "The people in the magistrate's yamen are inextricably linked with those people. As long as I move around here, they can get the news. When we arrive, I guess It’s already been empty. I heard that you have quite a few martial arts under your command, and their character is also trustworthy, so I want to borrow it and use it.”

Jia Lian agreed without thinking about it.

"Think about it," Fan Shen said again, "Once this happens, the three of you and you will never stop dying, and your future will be very difficult."

"Cut," let alone offend the prince, even offend the emperor, he will do it, "if offended, offend, and you are in front of me, if there is anything, people will come to you first. The sky is falling It's also the first to hit the height."

Fan Shen is the magistrate of Jinling and the leader. If they want to find the culprit, they have to find him first.He was an accessory at best.

"Don't be complacent, the accessory is also one of the suspects." Fan Shen hit Jia Lian with a sneer.

"Oh, where are you begging for help?" Jia Lian felt that Fan Shen was being naughty. After a while, the kidnappers were arrested and sentenced, "I promised to lend you a favor, but you still refused to let him go, and you actually insisted on it." You want me to quit? I said, are you really borrowing money, or do you have someone in your hands?"

Only then did Fan Shen stop talking, "Well, since that's the case, I heard that you also know some martial arts. Anyway, you have offended those three by lending someone to me. I don't have enough manpower here, so you can go with me too. .”

"Okay." Jia Lian asked Hou Song to bring the young man who knew martial arts to Fan Shen, and together they went to catch the kidnapper.

☆、Chapter 52

Fan Shen got a dozen or so people from Jia Lian, plus his own servants, as well as conscientious people from the Jinling magistrate's yamen who didn't participate in this matter. A total of thirty or forty people were gathered together, plus Jia Lian and Liu Xianglian. and Fan Shen went to the place where the kidnapper was.

That place is in a remote place in the southeast. It is a big courtyard with three front and back entrances, forty or fifty rooms large and small, two doors at the front and back, and a very high wall. And Jia Lian and the others.

Fan Shen first sent someone to guard the front and back doors, but he didn't answer, and told someone to knock on the door and rush in.

There are only five or six men in the yard who take care of these children, and the others are nuns who teach the children, and their combat effectiveness is about zero.

Moreover, Fan Shen was wearing an official uniform, and the people in the yamen were wearing official uniforms. When those men saw him, they took out their knives and gestured a few times.

Fan Shen stared and said bitterly: "There is no one who can fight? Why can't there be a bold one? Attack the officials?"

Jia Lian and Liu Xianglian looked at Fan Shen speechlessly at the same time, they had never seen an official who took the initiative to beat him.

Those people were dealt with neatly, but Fan Shen couldn't get up his spirits, and waved his hand at the gentleman irritably: "Everyone is taken away, everyone is taken away, you are really a bunch of softies. Those three sent people like you here, why don't you come here?" Undefeated?"

Those men and wives were all taken away, and the next step was to rescue the abducted girls.

The girls were arranged in a room of four or five, beaten and scolded by those people, and lived a life of darkness.At this time, seeing the officials from the government, they all wept with joy and knelt down for help.

Jia Lian saw a child who was only three or four years old, still wearing bright red silk and satin clothes, which was completely different from the girls in coarse cloth clothes around him, but his body was covered with red marks.I also heard people say that he was whipped when he was just abducted and cried because he missed his parents.

Jia Lian inspected the wound on the child's arm and heard the child's immature crying, his heart throbbed with pain. Those people deserved to die for suffering this kind of crime at the age when they should be taken care of by their parents.

Fan Shen asked someone to find out the roster, counted them one by one, handed them over to Jia Lian, and said, "I'll leave it to you, I'm at ease."

first time,
