Yuan Zheng looked at Li Baolu with a face like "You are a troublemaker, but I will tolerate you", and said to Li Baolu, "Miss Li, how much time do you want to delay us?"

Li Baolu tilted her head and said, "But I'm from a woman's family, don't you say that women marry and obey their husbands? My husband is not at home now, so I don't dare to make up my mind in private, although I may have caused you trouble, I'm very sorry, but I Still don’t dare to draw bets.”

   Li Baolu smiled suddenly, blinked and said, "Why don't you change the secular laws so that women can be independent?"

   Yuan Zheng was taken aback for a moment, he did not expect Li Baolu to make such absurd demands.

Li Baolu had already knocked on the door, stood in the door and nodded to him with a smile: "Let this old man run for nothing, next time you come, remember to put on official uniforms or bring documents, otherwise I will suspect that someone is pretending to be an officer. As for I really can’t make up my mind about the matter of drawing and closing the case, this gentleman might as well wait four days, my husband will come out after four days, and then he will draw and hold the case.”

"However, it's only a day away from the automatic closing of the case. I think it doesn't matter if I sign it or not, right?" Li Baolu waved to them happily, "There is only one young woman in the family, so if it's inconvenient, don't take the official lightly. Grandpa is in."

   After saying that, he closed the door with a bang.

   Not only the people outside were dumbfounded, even Shunxin and the cook were dumbfounded, "Husband, madam, is it alright for us to just keep the official out of the door?"

   "I was about to fight, but I restrained myself from being locked out." Li Baolu returned to the kitchen with the basket, pouted and said, "If you want to force me, there are no windows."

  The cook patted her chest and said with lingering fear: "Madam doesn't know, they were fierce when they first came. I was afraid they would break in."

   Li Baolu snorted softly, but she also knew that if they broke in, she really couldn't do anything to them.

   Legally speaking, it is illegal for them to do this, but officials have always been domineering, so who would care?

   Li Baolu was able to beat them back, and it was not difficult to defeat them with her strength, but the government wouldn't care about the reason for the fight with the official, it was always her fault.

   So Li Baolu won't do it unless he has to.

   "I'm frightened. I'll make more delicious food tonight to suppress fright."

  Shun Xin was embarrassed, "Madam, didn't you say it was for celebration?"

   "Then do more."

   She went to help the cook to wash and cut vegetables, while Li Baolu turned around and quietly went out of the house, watching Yuan Zheng's face change outside the door, and then she left with a flick of her sleeves.

Li Baolu thought for a while, then went back to her room and took out her money bag to count. Finally, she took out five taels of silver and sighed. It seemed that she had to find time to worship the God of Wealth. Immortals must sell their charts when they go out to sea, otherwise they would really be poor. to the begging.

  Li Baolu took the money to buy a lot of snacks and came back. The neighbors helped her a lot just now, so she still has to do the proper etiquette.

   She has always been reclusive and a guest, so she just nodded acquaintance with the neighbors, Zhao Ning did not communicate closely with them, and usually greeted her when they met, but they were willing to stand up for her just now.

   This love is not something that can be exchanged for a snack, but sending it over can show her position, and she remembers their love.

  Li Baolu bought a lot of dim sum and made more than 20 portions, and the family asked Shunxin and the cook to deliver them.

"Ma'am, they all accepted it. They also said that if there is any difficulty in the future, just call them, and they will help anyone who can help." Let's be more careful, I'm afraid those officials will not be so easy to forget in the daytime, and there will be troubles in the future, I think you might as well be soft, the prefect of this case has been sentenced."

   "How can we do that?" Shunxin shouted, "Are our sins for nothing? If Madam hadn't taken precautions in advance, my son and Gu Gongzi would have missed the exam just like Young Master Wen and the others, and would have waited three years for nothing."

  Shun Xin grew up with Zhao Ning since he was a child, and was loyal to the Zhao family.

   In front of the ideals of the Zhao family, all obstacles will be cut off, cut off!

   Not even the prefect.

  Shunxin turned his head to Li Baolu and said, "Madam, don't listen to her about this matter. If you sign the closing document here, Mr. Zhao and the others will not be able to use it as evidence even if they find anything from the clues you gave."

  Li Baolu nodded, "Don't worry, I won't be so rude to fellow Daoists."

   She only pits her enemies, she is always as gentle as a spring breeze and rain to her friends, and only unusual enemies can enjoy severe storms.

   And at night, those who came to visit at night were treated like a storm.

   Those people felt a pain in their cheeks when they jumped out of the yard, and they were slapped hard with a "pop" sound.

   The person who was beaten was a little confused, he touched his face and asked, "Who beat me?"

   The four companions standing beside him and behind all felt a cold wind blowing, their backs shivered, and they shivered involuntarily.

   The five looked at each other, and the other four immediately shook their heads and said in unison, "It's not me!"

   Seeing that his face was red and swollen, and the slap print was also revealed, the other four all changed their faces and said in a trembling voice: "Okay, it seems to be a child's slap, this, this is not a haunted house, right?"

   "What nonsense?" The person who was beaten touched his cheek and said sternly, "Someone must be making a ghost, who is it, come out to the master, don't hide your head and show your tail."

With a    "pop", a slap slapped his left cheek fiercely, directly hitting the man to the point of staggering and almost falling to the ground.

   And the others were completely frightened, because they were standing facing the man, and they dared to swear that they never saw the sixth man, and none of the four of them did anything.

so……

   "Ghost--"

   The five people were so frightened that they stumbled to the door.

The "ghost" was silent for a while, and then quickly grabbed the collars of the four people who had fled and threw them back, and then the sound of slaps sounded uninterruptedly. The man didn't even let out a scream, and just fell to the ground with a few "bangs" -- he was knocked out.

  Li Baolu flashed out of the darkness and sneered at the fainted man. If she wanted to scare her, she had to practice her courage first.

  Li Baolu mentioned that the two of them jumped on the wall and threw them directly at the entrance of the alley, and then came back to mention the remaining three, and after a while, the five of them were lying at the entrance of the alley and didn't know about their personnel.

  Li Baolu clapped her hands and went home happily.

In the end, the watchman found them and almost scared him to death. He still accidentally touched a person's hand and found out that it was soft and hot to know that the person was still alive. report.

  The five people were carried back to the government office, and the next day they were met with waves of brutal onlookers.

  No way, these five people are also yamen servants. They are usually quite arrogant. I didn't expect that they would turn into pig heads today.

   They were very curious about who dared to attack the yamen. In this day and age, this is much more serious than attacking the police, and hacking to death is not a crime.

   The five people were in unison and affirmed: "We met a little devil."

   "Child beat? Which child is so courageous?"

   "Not a child, but the ghost of a child."

   "Maybe more than one, he was so fast that he stunned us with his slaps."

   Public servants: "..."

   Yuan Zheng, who came to inquire about the news:...

   Public servants: "You have been beaten stupid, how can there be ghosts in this world?"

   "It's really a ghost. The five of us stood facing each other, and the slap fell on our face. We couldn't even see a shadow. What do you think it's not a ghost?"

   "It's so dark at night, even if someone can't see it, it's forgivable..."

"The moon was so round last night, why was it dark? At least we can see our neighborhood clearly. It's really a ghost. I'm afraid there are a lot of little ghosts living in the yard that the two scholars rented." One of them was swollen like a The pig-headed person said with a pale face: "I won't go to that alley again anyway, whoever you love will go."

   Yuan Zheng's face was gloomy, he glanced at the five people who were watching, turned and left.

   He clenched his hands into fists, obviously furious, and he still looked down on the little woman.

  Ghosts?

  Humph, how can there be ghosts in this world!

  Yuan Zheng looked at the direction of the ceremony room and only hoped that his son could stand out this time. As long as he was good enough, even if he could not completely suppress this matter, the Ou family would not dare to completely frame this matter on his son.

  Li Baolu's side was completely quiet, no one from the yamen came to the door, and no one disturbed them at night.

   Not only because what happened that night made Yuan Zheng jealous, but also because he and Ou Tongjuan were struggling to deal with Wen Sheng and others.

   Wen Sheng and others quickly used public opinion to publicize the matter after they jointly signed the letter, forcing Zhou Yi to file another case for investigation.

  Ou Tongjuan and Yuan Zheng were in a hurry to wipe Ou Dunyi's buttocks. Although he dealt with these scholars all the outsiders who were invited by the bookboys and servants, but the tails were not clean enough, because those people were still alive.

  Ou Tongjing can only find out those people, and resolve them on the spot if they cannot be sent far away. We must ensure that Wen Sheng and others do not get a trace of evidence.

  There is no evidence, just based on suspicion and speculation, they can't do anything with Ou Dunyi.

   For Yuan Zheng, if Ou Dunyi is safe, then Yuan Fang is safe, so he did his best in this matter.

When they were fighting with each other, things became more and more troubled. Except for the invigilator who was still locked in the ceremony room, the chief examiner and the candidates didn't know it. The officials and people all over Guangzhou heard about it, and even the common people began to talk about it quietly. .

   This was a big blow to Zhou Yi's official voice. He said to the master irritably: "This matter must be settled as soon as possible, and I don't need to do this official again if the trouble continues."

  Master was silent for a moment and said, "Sir, why don't you mediate and let them reconcile in private?"

   Zhou Yi's face was ugly, "Those scholars would be willing to mediate?"

"Everyone has weaknesses. Ou Dunyi is not stupid. Most of the people he starts are poor and poor children. Most of these people can be solved with money. What a price to pay."

   Zhou Yi frowned thoughtfully.

   "Sir, the damage is done, anyway, they can't retake the exam, they can only wait for another three years, the so-called justice is just to exile Ou Dunyi, it is better to let Ou Dunyi get some benefits, even if it is money."

  Money is a good thing. If his family had money back then, even if he couldn't get an official position, he would still be able to take the exam a few more times. Maybe he would pass the jinshi exam and become an official?

   And those poor children obviously need money, such as that Qiao Xu.
