Li You shook his head and drove away the unnecessary sentimentality. He was no longer the otaku who had no luck with women. Why bother clinging to the past? He almost let the subconscious of his previous life dominate his thinking. His character still needs to be tempered.
Jin Baoer asked: "What are you thinking about in a daze?"
"Sir, I am both talented and beautiful, and have a successful career. It is normal for someone to like me." Li You said to Jin Baoer quite proudly, "You should be proud of me."
"Yeah." Jin Bao'er lay obediently in the master's arms and didn't move, actually he was snickering in his heart.
However, Li You still noticed that she seemed a little strange tonight, and secretly thought that she was jealous? While she was jealous, she was still leading the master's lead. She was indeed a virtuous woman specializing in ancient times. I like her.
The next day Li You got up, had a few bites of breakfast, and then went to the county government office for a walk. Soon he got the news that the magistrate from Suzhou Prefecture had just set out this morning, taking the waterway, and expected to reach the county seat in the evening.
It was still early, so there was no need to wait for the time being. Li Youxian got the opportunity and walked out in boredom, considering whether to go back to the Inspection Department to have some official fun.
Suddenly, he saw Jiang Dianshi from the execution room walking quickly, he cupped his fists and said to him as a courtesy: "Master Li, stay here, a small lawsuit has some connection with you, I can't tell it. I happen to be in the county government office, please help me settle it for you."
Li You was bewildered by Jiang Dianshi's request. What small lawsuit could involve him? Or what small lawsuit dared to implicate him? Anyway, he had nothing to do at this time, so he curiously followed Jiang Dianshi to the execution room.
.
It turns out that recently there was a case in which a wealthy man, Mr. Qin, sued Dai Miaozhu of the Chenghuang Temple for defrauding money. This case was really not serious, so it was handed over to the execution room to determine the outcome, and then to the grand master. Many small cases are like this, otherwise the grand master would not be able to do anything.
Check these times one by one.
Jiang Dianshi took over the case and called the plaintiff and defendant today. I heard the plaintiff Qin Yuanwai state: "I like to collect famous people's calligraphy and paintings on weekdays. I always pay the right price and I am honest. All my neighbors and friends can testify to this. I heard Dai Dai the day before yesterday.
Miao Zhu had the inscription of Mr. Li, a gifted scholar from the county, and sincerely wanted to buy it. He agreed on the price of 20 taels, paid him a deposit of 10 taels, and agreed to trade it yesterday. Who knew that Miao Zhu had deliberately done something wrong and used fake handwriting to pass it off as genuine.
After being exposed by the subordinate, he denied it, which is obviously a case of forcibly defrauding money."
Dai Miaozhu, however, cried out that he was wronged and said, "I gave him Master Li's authentic work, but he didn't have the discernment to think it was a fake. How can I complain!"
The two of them each insisted on different opinions, and it was difficult for Jiang Dianshi to distinguish, so he searched for evidence. There was nothing wrong with the contract. Then he opened the papered and rolled scroll, and what he saw was "God's mercy, begging for sweet rain" eight large characters in calligraphy that are so strange that it is difficult to express in words.
.
Objectively speaking, this is really Li You's calligraphy, and it is also his only calligraphy that has been widely circulated. He wrote it on impulse because he had the bad taste of being a famous person being asked to calligraphy, and there are also reasons for polishing his pen. In addition, he usually has the intention to
Hidden clumsiness, no other handwriting has been circulated. In addition, the two poems written on the wall a few months ago have long been blurred. Even if the handwriting is not good, everyone thinks that the uneven wall makes writing difficult and Li You is drunk.
No one would have thought that Mr. Tanhua, a celebrity in the county who was famous for his poetry, could not write well enough. Li You had practiced writing only his name and a few common words for signatures, and he could still handle small characters.
After reading the inscription, Jiang Dianshi's heart became clear. He despised Dai Miaozhu, who knew how to deceive others. Even a three-year-old child would be fooled by such bad words. He immediately slapped the table and shouted: "Dai Miaozhu, you are also the official temple."
Officer, why are you so greedy for money and ignorant of business? If you don’t recruit me from real sources, I will act as a middleman to keep you private, so that you won’t have to deal with it before the law and everyone will look bad.”
Dai Miaozhu was full of grievances and had nowhere to complain. He was extremely aggrieved. No one believed that this calligraphy was clearly Master Li's. They only shouted anxiously: "I saw this calligraphy written by Master Li with my own eyes. If it is false, I will accept the national law! If you can please
Mr. Li will know the authenticity once he distinguishes it himself!"
Hearing this, Jiang Dianshi's heart skipped a beat, and he thought to himself: There is something in Dai Miaozhu's words, is he reminding me? His wife's rumor has nothing to do with Mr. Li. With Mr. Li's romantic style, it may not be false. He dares
When he said that he would invite Mr. Li to come, he must be so confident that even if it was a lie, it could be taken seriously.
He cursed again, this Dai Miao Zhu is really a bastard old turtle. He can't find a decent calligraphy to cheat money. Such bad calligraphy makes Ben Dianshi unable to pretend to be confused. Then the plaintiff Qin Yuanwai is not a vegetarian. The case is
It’s hard to break.
When he was worried, he saw Shi Shiran, the tall figure of Inspector Li, walking past the county government office. He was so eye-catching. Jiang Dianshi felt overjoyed. A savior came from the sky and asked Mr. Li to make the decision in person, so that he no longer had to worry about it.
.
It is said that Li You was invited by Jiang Dianshi. When he entered, he saw the short and insignificant Dai Miaozhu. He did not recognize the thirty-year-old scribe standing next to him. Without thinking much, he directly took the first seat in Jiang Dianshi's position.
When he found out the reason, Li You was so angry that he almost grabbed Dai Miaozhu and beat him to death if he hadn't considered his dignity as an official.
I wrote a few big characters for you just for fun, just to get the vanity of looking for inscriptions by famous people, and to use it as an excuse to collect your money. It doesn't matter if you take it back and cover it on the wall or put it in the toilet, I don't mind either, everyone
You are an adult, and you still don’t understand the ways of the world. I shouldn’t, you should not, you dare to publicize that this is written by me in broad daylight, this is simply an insult to my dignity as a celebrity, how can I forgive you lightly?
After thinking about it, Li You stared at Dai Miaozhu fiercely and pondered for a long time.
Dai Miaozhu was so panicked when Li You saw him that he kept shrinking back subconsciously. Could it be that he really angered Mr. Li?
Unfortunately, his attempt to pray for rain failed, and he lost his reputation as a wife and lost some money. He felt that he was more wronged than Zhou Lang in the book, and he thought about it day and night. I heard that someone was willing to buy him for twenty taels.
When Li You wrote the inscription, he was so happy that he was ready to take action. He didn't expect that such an ugly calligraphy could make a lot of money, so it was not in vain if he sold it secretly. Who would have expected that the trouble would get worse and worse, and it would end up like this.
The more he thought about it, the sadder he became, Dai Miaozhu looked sad and resigned to his fate.
Li You turned around and said decisively to Jiang Dianshi: "This word is fake. Dai Miaozhu fraudulently used his official name to deceive good people. Please punish him according to the law!"
Dai Miaozhu Zhanghuang was stuttering at a loss and didn't know what to say. Then he saw Mr. Li reaching out to point at him and said: "You are very good. I hope you can continue to work safely as a Miaozhu."
I'll go back and ask Magistrate Chen to spare you," Li You said bitterly in his heart.
When Jiang Dianshi saw that Li You had actually accused Dai Miaozhu of being a fake, he guessed at the story of a love affair and fined Dai Miaozhu thirty taels of silver.
The plaintiff, Yuan Qin, stepped forward and said, "Thank you so much, Mr. Li, for upholding justice. I wonder if I will be honored to be the host and please honor me." Now that I have seen the real owner, why are you still angry with Dai Miaozhu? It is serious business to quickly make friends with Mr. Li.
.
It is said that these days, the world has been at peace for a long time, and the calligraphy, painting and antique industry has become popular again. There is a bookshop outside the Qin Yuan. Although he has not been admitted as a scholar for more than ten years, he still considers himself a scholar and likes to collect famous people's calligraphy and paintings. This Mr. Li has great potential for wealth.
Handwriting is rare and valuable, so it is worth collecting. According to this trend, it should not be a problem to increase the number of calligraphy to more than 100 taels after his death. Unfortunately, Mr. Li is young and strong, and it is not easy for him to die of old age and illness early. Investment recovery
The period is a bit long, Qin Yuanwai analyzed it very professionally.
Li You still had a good impression of the man who wanted to collect his inscriptions, and he praised him for his vision! He also sincerely sympathized with him for almost being deceived... He asked casually: "Your surname is Qin? What do you do for a living?"
Qin Yuanwai replied: "My next family owns a bookshop and also runs a small silk weaving shop."
Hearing the word "silk weaving", Li You became interested, so he put down his arrogance and said: "I invite you to drink tea and ask you some questions. I hope to tell you the truth."
When Qin Yuanwai heard this, he was overjoyed and said, "I live in Fuxin Lane and have some fine tea. I dare you to invite me to taste it!"
Fuxin Lane...a place that sounds familiar to Inspector Li.
