During the conversation, two more female Taoist priests led several people to come.
I saw Lin Luochu immediately put down the sword in his hand, and greeted him with a warm smile: "Eldest sister, second sister, why are you here? This dog magistrate wants to take away my master?"
"Luo Chu, don't be rude to Mr. Hu."
The older woman scolded Lin Luochu lightly, walked up to Hu Maoxi with a fly whisk in hand, nodded and saluted, then looked at Chu Nanzhi and asked doubtfully: "Who is this female benefactor?"
From the conversation between several people, Hu Maoxi guessed that this person was the eldest princess Lin Luotong, and hurriedly replied respectfully and politely: "Returning to your highness, this is Madam Chu who is specially handling the case for me."
Taking advantage of the gap between Hu Maoxi's reply, Chu Nanzhi also took a closer look at the two new women. They were all holding whisks in their hands and had very good looks. Their simple clothes and plain makeup complemented each other, and they looked a bit like a Taoist.
deportment.
Thinking of their identities, he bowed politely to her.
Lin Luotong first waved towards Hu Maoxi: "I am a Taoist, so you don't have to be polite."
His eyes were full of kindness.
Then, her eyes turned to look deeply at Chu Nanzhi, and suddenly she said with a gentle smile: "The majesty and majesty of this female benefactor reminded me of an old friend."
"The eldest sister is talking about the emperor's niece Jinshu from Qinghe, right?"
The second eldest princess, Lin Luoxuan, also looked at Chu Nanzhi carefully, and then began to think about it and answer her own questions: "It is true, this female benefactor really has some charm of Jin Shu."
"The two eldest princesses were joking."
Chu Nanzhi didn't know what the purpose of these two people's chatter was, so she could only answer humbly: "The slave family is just a village woman, how can it be compared with Princess Jinshu."
"The female donor is too modest."
Lin Luotong flicked the fly whisk, and her movements showed the composure of a Taoist:
"Just now Pindao also heard about what happened in the temple. It is said that several major cases in the county recently were solved by female benefactors. She is so smart that Pindao admires her. But just now Pindao is an ignorant sister.
There is some truth in what he said. The master of the Shen family cannot be resurrected, so why bother to commit more crimes?"
At this point, she suddenly stopped and looked at Chu Nanzhi quietly, with a deeper meaning in her eyes: "Does the female donor think Pindao's words make sense?"
Hu Maoxi originally thought that the two eldest princesses were here to reason, but after hearing these words, he realized that they were here to protect his shortcomings. The hope he had just raised was immediately destroyed, and he dared not speak out in anger.
When Chu Nanzhi heard this, she couldn't help but sneer in her heart. Now she finally saw that none of these eldest princesses were good at each other, and they couldn't be taken away today anyway.
Looking at Lin Luotong, she answered bluntly: "I forgive you for being bold. I feel that what the eldest princess said is unreasonable."
"Chu"
Hu Maoxi raised his eyebrows, but did not dare to speak when he saw the solemn atmosphere.
After hearing this, the three eldest princesses immediately lowered their faces. The eldest princess Lin Luotong changed her previous kind look and said solemnly with a cold face:
"Okay, then I will explain to you. No matter what the reason is, you broke into the royal palace privately. All the disciples in the temple saw it with their own eyes. You cannot get rid of this crime of trespassing. Please explain.
Madam, please tell me how you should be punished according to the laws of our Dahe Empire."
"Hey, eldest sister, why do you have to say it so seriously?"
The second eldest princess Lin Luoxuan immediately advised: "Mrs. Chu, please don't listen to my eldest sister's nonsense. From Pindao's point of view, it is better to let this matter go. Luo Chu's proposal just now was very good. He punished the Han family who harmed others.
Let’s not pursue Mrs. Chu’s crimes, let’s turn the big things into trivial ones.”
As soon as she finished speaking, the eldest princess Lin Luotong was furious: "What about the Han family and the Li family? That Han family is a pilgrim in my temple and has quite good roots. How could he harm others? It's just nonsense. It's just what others say."
Do you believe the slanderous words?"
The matter was causing such a big fuss today. If the Han family were to be investigated, Nanhua Temple would have to be involved in tracing the source. There might even be rumors that the three eldest princesses were protecting the younger ones, but she was determined not to agree.
Staring deeply at Hu Maoxi, Lin Luotong reminded with a deep smile, "This case has been decided for a long time, and Mr. Hu personally decided it. Is what I say true?"
"Yes Yes."
Hu Maoxi's expression looked extremely stiff and groveling, but his heart was full of anger: This doesn't mean he has returned to the original point, so what is the point of tossing these days?
Lin Luotong was very satisfied with his answer. He held the fly whisk lightly and nodded in greeting: "This is a matter that has been settled for a long time. If we have to stir up some unprovoked waves and cause the poor people to be confused, let's disperse them all."
After that, he led the sisters and left as if nothing happened.
Chu Nanzhi looked at several free and easy figures, and an indescribable sadness suddenly appeared in his eyes.
The way the three eldest princesses solved the problem really opened her eyes and surprised people to the extreme.
This is simply a weird thing among weird things. Looking at the entire Nanhua Temple, it is shrouded in such a layer of filth. It doesn't look like a quiet place to cultivate one's mind and nature.
"Wait a minute."
Chu Nanzhi couldn't bear it anymore and shouted at the three sisters who were about to disperse.
Several people turned around, looked at her in astonishment, and asked in unison: "What else does Mrs. Chu have to say?"
"I don't dare to be taught, but I do have some knowledge."
Chu Nan Zhizhi said righteously: "If the three eldest princesses are really allowed to show favoritism today, then what kind of justice will there be in Luyan Port in the future?"
"Tianli, do you want to talk to me about Tianli?"
Lin Luotong looked at the soldiers who were waiting in formation beside him and shouted: "Then I will show you what the law of heaven is today."
After saying that, she calmly gave a long whistle in the direction of the outside.
Hu Maoxi and Sun Wucai knew in their hearts that she was summoning the soldiers outside the audience. They were so frightened that they were sweating all over and rubbing their hands, secretly complaining: Isn't this a turtle in the urn? It seems that this time they really have to explain themselves here.
Looking at Chu Nanzhi, whose face was as calm as autumn water, Hu Maoxi suddenly took up his courage and stood side by side with her in a righteous and awe-inspiring manner.
After all, he is a dead man, and he cannot be outdone by this woman in terms of momentum.
The government officials who followed also clutched their sabers and were alert to the groups of soldiers, ready to face the enemy at any time.
Chu Nanzhi also held her breath. She had calculated everything, but she never calculated that the three eldest princesses were treacherous people, and they were so selfish that they regarded human life as nothing and ignored the laws of the country.
The army is power, which she cannot resist.
A group of people were on guard in fear, but after a long time there was still silence around the Golden Palace. Except for the group of soldiers around them, no follow-up reinforcements were seen.
A look of confusion gradually appeared on the proud faces of the three eldest princesses.
The second eldest princess, Lin Luoxuan, raised her eyes and looked towards the mountain gate, and said suspiciously: "Hey, where is the person?"
While several people were looking at each other, a clear female voice floated in from a distance:
"The three aunts are so majestic. They have forced the two Taoist priests of Tanshan Temple and Tan Qing and Tan Yuan to travel far and wide and dare not return until now. What a pure Taoist temple you have turned into a mess. Is it possible that these aunts are still here?"
Do you want to force all the officials in Luyan Port to go back to their hometowns to farm before they give up?"
