Chapter 310 Xiangling's Thoughts
Chapter 310 Xiang Ling’s Thoughts
Qin Zhiyi became even more anxious.
"What's going on?"
Fei Chengsheng saw that she was anxious, so he also said at this time: "Madam, you go back and rest first, and I will go out to look for you."
She looked at Fei Chengsheng and seemed to have no other choice.
Another servant hurried in: "Master, madam, there is news from the Yamen that the young master has killed someone and has been arrested."
"No way, they must have made a mistake."
Qin Zhiyi blurted out and immediately said: "No one is allowed to make any announcement about this matter. I have to go to the Yamen."
Fei Chengsheng grabbed her hand with the same solemn look on his face.
"I'm with you."
…
When Xiangling heard the news of the accident, she didn't think too much about it, dressed up and went to the cell.
When several maids saw this situation, they couldn't even stop him.
It wasn't until they entered the cell that Jianlaiwang was indeed locked in it. Xiangling couldn't help but shed tears.
"Laiwang, what's going on? They said you killed someone."
When Lai Wang saw Xiang Ling, he was equally excited. He also came to the door and said, "I didn't kill anyone. He wronged me and he killed the person."
Hearing what Lai Wang said, Xiang Ling gradually stopped crying: "What's going on?"
Lai Wang told Xiang Ling the whole story.
After listening to Lai Wang's account, Xiang Ling immediately said: "Don't worry, my brother is an upright official, fair and honest. Since you didn't kill anyone, he will definitely investigate the matter clearly and will never wrongly accuse you."
Lai Wang also believed what Xiang Ling said, but he was still worried. After all, the other party was the son of the magistrate. If the officials came to protect each other, he might be the one who would suffer.
But when Xiang Ling said this, he still couldn't bear to express his thoughts and just nodded in response.
After learning the truth, Xiangling went back to find her brother.
"Brother, he didn't kill anyone. Lai Wang told me that it was the two men who caught him. The prefect's son took a dagger and wanted to hurt him. After he dodged... the prefect's son injured another classmate.
Brother, you should arrest the prefect’s son, not him.”
Magistrate Xu glanced at her, and his sister's thoughts were already revealed from her eager expression.
"I know everything you said. Since it's a case, no matter who he is, I will definitely provide justice."
Hearing what her brother said, Xiangling breathed a sigh of relief.
However, County Magistrate Xu said again: "Xiang Ling, tell me honestly, do you have a crush on this classmate?"
Xiangling's face instantly turned red when her brother told her something important.
"It's nothing. I just get along better with him. I don't understand many of the knowledge points taught by my husband, but he taught them to me."
When Mr. Liu heard his sister's words, he immediately understood. Then he made a serious look and said: "Calculating her age, my sister is already fifteen. It's time to find a husband. That's good. I'll wait until my brother's case is settled."
Okay, let’s see which young master is suitable for you.”
"elder brother."
Xiangling was anxious: "I'm still young, I don't want to get married. Besides, I've only been studying in the college for a long time. I want to study for two more years."
"If I study for another two years, my sister will become an old girl."
Mrs. Liu also said at this time: "Okay, okay, stop teasing Xiangling, you big man, go handle your case, and I'll talk to her."
After hearing what his wife said, Magistrate Xu nodded and walked out.
Only the aunt and sister-in-law were left in the room, so Mrs. Xu asked Xiang Ling.
"Whose son is the Laiwang you are talking about?"
Hearing her sister-in-law's question, Xiangling bit her lip and finally said: "He is not a young master from any family. His parents are farmers in the countryside, and he is staying at his aunt's house. But he is very literary, kind, and courteous. Sister-in-law, if
You will definitely praise him when you see him."
After hearing this, Mrs. Xu was slightly surprised at first, then smiled lightly and said: "Listening to what you said, I want to see him even more. But have you ever thought about his birth?"
"Thought about it."
Seeing that her sister-in-law had said so, she was unwilling to hide it any longer.
"Sister-in-law, I do like him. He is the most attractive person I have ever seen. I also know that he does not come from a wealthy family, but no matter what happens in the future, I want to be with him."
Mrs. Xu asked again: "Assuming that he can really obtain fame, then of course there is nothing to say. But if he loses his fame in the future, or even goes back to farming, will you want to stay with him? You will spend the rest of your life with him facing the loess.
The days when my back is turned to the sky.”
Xiangling stopped talking, not because she was afraid to go back to the countryside with him to farm, but because she was afraid that if she really lived that kind of life, she didn't know how long she could survive.
She had thought about being respectful to him as a guest, but she had never thought about that much.
Mrs. Xu asked her again: "The most important thing is that you like him. Does he like you?"
She really doesn't know this.
Xiangling didn't know how to answer for a while.
Mrs. Xu smiled and said: "I have also come from your age and I know what you think. When I first married your brother, I thought about it a lot, but he treated me well. I also thought about it, no matter whether I am rich or poor,
Stay with him. My sister-in-law doesn't object to you being with him, but you must remember to understand whether this person is worth entrusting to you and whether he likes you. Don't end up in vain."
"I know, sister-in-law."
Yes, the most important thing is to understand his thoughts.
Mrs. Xu nodded, patted her hand and said: "It's so late, you go and have a rest. I believe your brother, he is a good official and will definitely handle this matter."
That night, Xiangling tossed and turned and couldn't sleep.
When they came together the next morning, she asked the maid to ask for leave from the master, then she looked for the maid and went to the Yamen to inquire about the news.
When the maid came back, Xiang Ling dragged the maid into the room and asked, "What's going on in the Yamen?"
The maid pursed her lips and said: "Miss, the situation is not good. The son of the magistrate's family insisted that it was Master Laiwang who killed the person. He said that they were close friends and would never do such a thing, and even though Laiwang
Young Master said that, but there was no witness at the time of the incident, so no one can tell clearly."
"how so……"
The maid continued: "And... and the magistrate is here too. He is sitting next to the county magistrate and listening. I'm afraid even the county magistrate will have trouble handling this matter."
After hearing this, Xiang Ling staggered back. If it weren't for the maid supporting her, she would have fallen to the ground.
"How could this happen... Can he commit murder just because he is the son of the prefect? No, I want to see! I want to see how that dog official of the prefect protects his son!"
The maid hurriedly grabbed her and said, "Miss, no, if you go, I'm afraid you will attract criticism."
"Then what should I do? Get out of the way, I'm going to find my sister-in-law!"
