537 Method (1)
Emperor Yuan jing threw the red-marked booklet to the old eunuch and said with a smile, “”My partner, tell me, is there any fraud in the beginning of the new year?”
The old eunuch took the memorial and quickly scanned through it, then said, “”This old servant is slow-witted, but this old servant feels that there is something strange about this matter.”
Emperor Yuan jing stared at him for a few seconds and ordered, “”Order the Deputy prefect and the Ministry of Justice to deal with this case. They must find out the truth.”
After the old eunuch took his leave, Emperor Yuan jing sat on the Dragon Throne and looked at the blue sky outside the Imperial study. He suddenly smiled. “One arrow, three birds.”
The old eunuch in the Python robe left the Imperial study and walked quickly with his head lowered. After walking for a hundred meters, he patted his chest in fear and his face was gloomy.
“You’re still asking me when you’ve already gotten your red card … Wei Yuan, it’s not that I don’t want to help you, but my life is the most important.”
Not long after, orders from the palace were sent to the Ministry of Justice and the government office.
Minister sun of the Ministry of Justice seemed to have anticipated this. After receiving the order, he immediately sent people to capture Xu niannian.
Magistrate Chen received the decree from the palace and sighed, shaking his head. “The long wind and waves will sometimes … I’m just afraid that a big wave will come and destroy your ship and kill you.”
He immediately called for shaoyin and said in a deep voice, immediately send someone to capture Xu niannian and bring him back to the Yamen for interrogation. We must capture him before the Ministry of Justice … Send someone to inform Xu yinluo.”
………….
Xu Manor.
It was a warm spring day. Xu niannian had his desk placed under the shade of a tree. The sun shone through the branches and leaves, mottled on the table, the books, and his handsome face.
There were teacups and pastries in his hands.
His aunt was about to go out with Xu lingyue and Xu lingying, as well as Lina, who was staying at home.
When Lina saw Xu Xinian under the tree, she generously praised him, ” Xu Erlang is really handsome. If he was in our tribe, the women would fight for him until they bled.
The aunt instantly became alert, as if she had seen a sow trying to steal her own cabbage.
Was this little black-skinned from the southern border hinting that she was interested in Erlang? Bah, delusional. A Toad lusting after a Swan’s flesh.
Aunty’s beautiful eyes glanced at Lina as she urged,”It’s getting late, go out early.”
He didn’t bring any retinue with him this time. Even a hundred retinues wouldn’t be able to beat a black-skinned kid from the southern border. His strength had been verified by second uncle Xu and dalang Xu.
His aunt had also seen with her own eyes how black skin easily crushed a rock the size of a fist into powder.
Lina immediately forgot about the handsome Xu Erlang and walked out excitedly. She couldn’t wait to take a look around the capital of Da Feng.
In the past, when he was in the southern border, he often heard the elders of the tribe Talk about the capital of Dafeng, the most prosperous city in the world.
“That wretched girl ate too much and even had bad thoughts about my Erlang. I have to find. way to drive her away …” His aunt thought to herself.
This foreign woman who had descended from the sky had aroused his aunt’s xenophobic thoughts.
Just as she was planning how to chase away the foreign woman, she saw a group of soldiers rush in and push the gatekeeper old Zhang to the ground. They went straight to the inner courtyard.
The leader of the constables held a portrait in his hand and compared it with the others. He pointed at Xu niannian, who was reading under the shade of the tree, and shouted, “”This person is Xu Xinyi. Take him down.”
“Who are you people? What right do you have to arrest my Erlang?” The Auntie was shocked. Out of her protective nature, she did not hesitate and frowned as she stood in front of the soldier.
“You dare to stop the Ministry of Justice from arresting someone? Take them all away!” The constable waved his hand and ordered his subordinates to arrest his aunt.
Two officers immediately stepped forward, took out a rope, and tied it around aunt’s head.
“Bang!”
Leena took a step forward and gently pushed the chests of the two officers. “Ah …” With two screams, the officer flew out and fell in a daze.
Clang!
The officers all drew their weapons and pointed them at Lina. The barbaric girl from the southern border licked her lips, somewhat excited. She could kill all of these people in ten breaths.
His aunt hid behind Lina in a state of shock. She suddenly realized that this little black-skinned creature was so reliable and reliable.
“Stop.”
Xu niannian chided. He put down his book and walked over. His cold eyes swept over the officials and he said in a deep voice, ”
I’m Huiyuan, with a title. You broke into my mansion and used your blade. This is a big crime.
At this moment, the two bailiffs who had been sent flying stood up, rubbing their chests. The constable saw that there was nothing unusual about them. He muttered to himself for a moment, put away his knife, and took out a card ticket.
“We’re under orders from the Ministry of Justice to bring Xu Huiyuan back to the Yamen for questioning.”
“What did I do?” Xu niannian frowned.
“Xu Huiyuan, come with us and you’ll know.” “Take him away,” the constable waved his hand and ordered.
Lina was just about to make a move, but Xu niannian stopped her. He went up to the official from the Ministry of Justice.”I’ll go with you.”
His aunt and Xu lingyue chased him all the way out of the mansion until the officers disappeared on the street with Xu niannian.
“Did Xu Erlang also steal money?” Lina whispered.
She knew that she would be caught by the soldiers if she stole the silver.
At this time, the gatekeeper old Zhang brought the horse for the new year and said, “”Madam, young miss, this old servant will send someone to inform master.”
Aunt and Xu lingyue turned around at the same time and called out, “”Let’s go and find eldest brother.”
…………
“What? Officials from the Ministry of Justice came to the residence to arrest Erlang?”
In the Yamen, Xu Qi ‘an, who had received the news, was stunned and caught off guard.
eldest brother, quickly think of a way. Madam and young lady are so anxious that they’re crying. The son of old Zhang, the gatekeeper, looked anxious.
“Why are you captured?”
Old Zhang’s son shook his head. a group of soldiers suddenly rushed in. They even pushed my father over. They took Erlang and left.
