"Zhong Liyi! Why is it you?"

Xu Yilin, who was surrounded by people, also saw the appearance of the person coming. His face became even more panicked. His father and Duke Huaiming had always been on bad terms, and Zhongliyi was by no means a good person. If he fell into his hands today,

That would be difficult.

Ignoring Xu Yilin, a token with the word "Xuancha" engraved on it was taken off his waist by a young man in official uniform. After showing it to everyone, he stepped forward and handed the token to Chen Pu respectfully.

Chen Pu took it in his hand and looked at it. After weighing it, he threw the token back into Zhong Liyi's hand.

"Brother, when did you return to Xuan'an?"

Zhong Lixin, who was standing aside, first looked at the young man and said a simple hello to him.

Putting the token in his hand back on his waist, upon hearing this greeting, Zhong Liyi looked at Zhong Liyin who was wearing a curtain hat next to him, smiled at her and said, "I was transferred back to Xuan'an two days ago."

After saying this, he once again set his eyes on Situ Xi next to Qingyu. Seeing that he was looking at him up and down, Zhong Liyi cupped his hands and said to him: "Sister-in-law, we only met you when we were young. Could it be that this is the case?"

Just forget about me?"

Zhongli Yi, Situ Xi heard this name from Zhongli Min. He is the legitimate son of Huai Minggong. It is said that he is a man with outstanding talents. He has a high official position at a young age, but he has been working as an errand in other cities, and now he has been transferred back to Xuan.

install.

Without answering Zhong Liyi's joking greeting, Situ Xi cast his eyes on the token on his waist and asked directly: "Xuan Inspector? I have heard about it before. It is said that he is in charge of supervision other than the clan.

Matters related to impeachment and Xuan'an internal inspections, but are you generally directly responsible for incidents like today?"

Less than half an hour has passed since the porcelain vase was snatched away by Chen Zhisu, and my brother-in-law rushed to the scene with so many petty officials. I am afraid this matter is not that simple.

Hearing this question, Zhong Liyi looked at Situ Xi with admiration in his eyes. After returning home this time, he heard from his father that Situ Xi had changed a lot recently. He knew that what he heard was false, but when he saw him today, he found that he was different from before.

.

"Similar matters are generally handed over to the Xuan'an Mansion for trial first, and then handed over to the Xuan Inspectorate according to the situation. However, the Xuan Inspectorate has the right to handle it directly. We happened to encounter it today, let alone this matter.

The level is beyond what the Xuan'an government office can handle."

I happened to meet... Situ Xi nodded slightly to express his understanding.

"No! This matter should be handled by Mr. Fu Yin. This is against the rules." A loud shout came from the side. Xu Yilin was still struggling at this moment, "I was framed..."

"Mr. Xu, please be quiet for a while."

Patting the shoulder of a clerk next to him, Zhong Liyi gave him a wink and ordered him to step forward and ask Xu Yilin to shut his mouth first.

Then Zhong Liyi walked up to Chen Pu and Chen Zhisu, bowed to them and said apologetically:

"It was not our intention to disturb these two distinguished guests today. Could you please hand over this porcelain vase to me first? Then we will definitely give you a satisfactory explanation."

Lifting up the porcelain vase in his hand and looking at it again, Chen Zhisu was also thinking. The main purpose of their coming to Chu State this time was to promote cooperation between the two parties, but before finalizing it, the specific content of the cooperation still had to be worked out slowly.

discuss.

Although today's incident is not directed at them, it will have a somewhat negative impact on the reputation of the Chu State. Perhaps using the topic to use it can also ask for some additional benefits from the Li State in subsequent negotiations...

Thinking of this, Chen Zhisu did not rush to give the bottle to Zhong Liyi. Instead, he looked at Zhong Liyi and stated his conditions, and then pointed to shopkeeper Zhang beside him.

"Yes, but before that, you have to communicate with our officials here... Besides, the direct stakeholder in this matter is the shopkeeper, so we should give him an explanation first."

"It should be so." Zhong Liyi nodded, then looked at Lao Zhangtou who was leaning against the wall and being supported by Zhang Yu'er, "As for this store owner..."

Seeing Zhong Liyi looking towards him, Lao Zhangtou was speechless at the moment. He looked around and had no choice but to look at Situ Xi for help.

"How about this? Draw up two documents, write down today's facts and events on them, and ask everyone present to take their fingerprints to testify. Then give these two documents to the shopkeeper and Miss Chen.

Keep it."

Crossing his arms and understanding what Lao Zhangtou meant, Situ Xi thought for a while, and then spoke out a plan at the right time.

"My sister-in-law is really cautious in what I do."

After pondering for a while, Zhong Liyi gave Situ Xi an appreciative look, and then asked Chen Pu and others for their opinions, "What do you two think?"

"Okay." Chen Zhisu nodded. The porcelain vase was actually of no use in his hands. Instead, it would be more convenient to leave such a document as Situ Xi said.

"Then let's do it."

The matter was finalized and explained to an official behind him. Zhong Liyi immediately sent someone to ask the people present about the incident and wrote two manuscripts according to the situation.

The two documents only record what really happened today, without any subjective factors involved, and of course there is no distortion of the facts.

Zhong Liyi personally whispered in Xu Yilin's ear again. Although he didn't know what they said, Xu Yilin's face changed several times. In the end, everyone including him put their fingerprints on the scroll.

.

After having the scroll, Chen Zhisu handed the porcelain bottle to Zhong Liyi.

Expressing his gratitude to Chen Zhisu, Zhong Liyi waved to his men behind him and ordered them to take Xu Yilin out of the store.

All the attendants and clerks exited the door, and the space in the store suddenly seemed spacious. Lao Zhangtou felt that the pressure around him seemed to have weakened a bit, and he finally relaxed a little.

After the atmosphere calmed down slightly, Zhong Liyi once again apologized to the two royal families of Li Kingdom.

"I'm really sorry that something like this happened and ruined your fun. If you two don't want to participate in this Spring Food Party anymore, I can escort you back."

"It doesn't matter, let's go shopping again. We won't eat casually on the roadside here, but you supervisors may need some more snacks." Chen Pu waved to him.

"What you said is that we will strictly manage it in the future, and today's matter will be reported to the superior. I believe there will be a reply soon. Since you two still want to play, I won't disturb you for now." Zhong Liyi stepped back.

He cupped his hands, then straightened up, smiled at Situ Xi and said, "Sister-in-law, come to the house in two days to have a talk."
