The scene was quiet and the atmosphere was serious. Under such circumstances, no matter how many important people were present,
After all, everything has to wait until he, the prefect, arrives before it can officially begin.
"Fu Zun."
"Master Lu.
"Master Prefect..." Various salutes and titles came one after another, and then, from the injured person's side, it turned into a chaotic voice of "I beg the Prefect to make the decision for the students." These are all students with some fame, or at least scholar status.
, there is no need to kneel down. Lu Tuizhi is also known for his modesty. He waved his hand and asked everyone to sit down. When his eyes turned to Ning Yi, he saw that the other party was also looking at him. Then Ning Yi also raised his hand and saluted: "Prefect Lu." Lu
Tuizhi nodded, and someone on the side immediately shouted: "How dare you! As soon as you get involved in the marriage, how can you not kneel down when you see the prefect?"...
"It's okay." Lu Tuizhi waved his hand. "Everyone is here today to attend the party. They are all distinguished guests of this mansion. Although there is a dispute among us at this time, the truth is not yet known. This mansion will not treat them as officials." After he finished speaking,
, the building over there narrowed his eyes, Lu Tuizhi's eyes swept over him, and then stopped in front of Ning Yi: "But if it is found out later, someone really used force to commit murder today, he should be held responsible
.This incident caused so many people to be injured. Next, it is my duty to meet that person in the Yamen!"
These words were sharp and sharp, and after the words fell, Ning Yi smiled, and the students on the side also responded in succession, some pulled the wounds and grinned their teeth. Lou Jinlin raised his hands and nodded, and said loudly: "In this matter,
Lou already had friendship with the elders of the Su family in Jiangning. If it was just a little friendship between the younger generations of the two families,
Lou would rather expose the misunderstanding. However, this matter has caused such a big fuss and affected so many people. Lou can't cover it up. He is a child who is too reckless and can't be taught. Lou thinks that he must be at fault in this matter. The adults will investigate later.
Qing, please punish him severely!" "Dad! I'm not wrong." After Lou Jinlin finished speaking, Lou Shuheng stood up from there with a swollen face, and suddenly there was a voice of support around him. This voice spread, and then
All the people watching from behind were involved. Many people were there to speak justice for Lou Shuheng, and the scene became violent for a while. After a while, when the noise gradually subsided, Lou approached and stared at Lou.
Shu Heng shouted: "You bastard! Sit down! There is no place for you to reply here!" Then he confessed to Lu Tuizhi and sat down at a nearby round table.
Lou Shuwan was also sitting in the crowd nearby, and Song Zhiqian, the Lou family's son-in-law, had also come to Lou at this time, found his wife, and sat with her. The two did not speak, and Song Zhiqian did not notice his wife's
Frowning slightly and then closing his eyes.
What his father loves most is his second brother. Lou Shuwan actually understands this best. At home, his father is strict with his eldest brother, but he is somewhat discouraged and helpless towards himself. Only his second brother is considered doting. From the moment he saw his father's expression just now
From the moment she started, she knew that her father was really angry this time. After all, from the bottom of his heart, his father looked down on the other person's status as a bride-in-law, and it was because he looked down upon her that he became even more angry.
Otherwise, her father would not have been so sharp from the beginning, talking to the other party in person, giving hints to the prefect, and provoking everyone's rebelliousness in a few words. She may not have fallen in love with Ning Yi, but she did have appreciation in her heart.
She has met many outstanding men, but this is the first time she has seen such an outstanding and complicated man, but she can only go so far. It is difficult for Ning Liheng to have a way out. She knows that the other man has a relationship with Qian Xiwen.
He was also very surprised, but since he had only visited once in two months, he could only be said to be acquaintances. With his father's full pressure, Qian Xiwen could not stand up for him.
On the other hand, the second brother seems to be really attracted to Su Tan'er.
She was thinking about these things here. Su Wending, who was not here just now, brought the medicine box over. The doctors refused to give it to him before, so Su Tan'er asked him to go back to the boat to get some. Qian Xiwen, Uncle Mu and others had also come over.
Lu Tuizhi stood up to greet him and sat down... What he was waiting for was Qian Xiwen's arrival.
After communicating with Qian Yu, Lu Tuizhi actually already had an outline and direction in his mind. After Lou Jinlin's few words just now, his thoughts became clearer: Although he has Qian Xiwen's relationship, he still
This Ning should be established as a permanent sin.
This is a difficult decision to make, but if it is to side with Ning Liheng, there are obviously too many people who are unwilling to do so. If Ning Liheng is to be convicted, only Qian Xiwen needs to be persuaded. With the passionate situation in front of him, he
After all, it can be borrowed. Once things fail, Qian Xiwen will understand: he will punish Ning Li and then privately give him a way out. This is the result of having the best of all three. The sale of the property is imminent.
He Ku has a good student from Hangzhou, a good one from Qian Xiwen, and a good one from Ning Liheng.
Anyway, this is the most just way to deal with it. After all, Ning Liheng really beat so many people and caused public outrage.
Soon after, he started asking questions, and for a moment, everyone's emotions began to boil in the hall...
………,……,……,……,………,
The wind on the lake blew through the rows of large ships. In the hall of the main ship of the government, hundreds of people gathered together. Several officials and celebrities sat together in front of them, asking about the fight just now.
Among the crowd, Song Zhiqian, who was sitting next to Lou Shuwan, was actually somewhat saddened by the fact that Ning Liheng, who also had the identity of his adopted son-in-law, was being questioned in front of him. Although... his calmness in front of him made Song Zhiqian seem to feel that
It's very weird, even a little uncomfortable. Although we haven't had any close friendship since we met, except for the first time we met during the visit to Lou's house, we only met and said hello once on the street. But no matter what, there is something about it.
The feeling of hurting others.
It was not long before he discovered that Ning Liheng was not in the same category as him at all.
As for the process of Ning Liheng beating people and everyone being beaten, it can actually be easily reorganized.
The focus of the next moment was on Ning Yi's identity as his adopted son-in-law. In Song Zhiqian's eyes, Ning Liheng was indeed a bit strange. When asked about his adopted son-in-law's identity, he nodded bluntly and said yes.
In the process of beating someone, he replied: "I am the only one with twenty or thirty people across from me, and there is a girl behind me. I feel that this situation should not be called beating someone..." He added that
A maid is called a girl.
This answer was actually very good, and even Magistrate Lu nodded, but the question only focused on one point. He told the girl behind him, and Lu Tuizhi emphasized: "So you are indeed protecting Miss Xiaochan behind you.
?" He also nodded, and Song Zhiqian felt that this guy was a fool.
When Lu Tuizhi asked him his opinion on who was right and who was wrong in this matter, he thought for a while and said, "I think it was actually a misunderstanding. There is nothing right or wrong." There was a sneer in the hall.
"This matter is actually due to my recklessness... Lou Shuheng stood up and replied, "My Lou family and Su family have been family friends for a long time, and my father has been acquainted with sister Tan'er's father for a long time.
This Ning Liheng is the bride-in-law, and the students originally treated him as a brother. Who knew that he was the bride-in-law, and today he was having sex with the maid in broad daylight? Lord Magistrate, if it was just an ordinary matter, this would be nothing more than a normal thing, with the eyes of students and students.
Seeing the two people holding hands under the tree, and recalling that they had met Tan'er not long ago, the student suddenly became angry and rushed over, trying to pull them away and question them. The student admitted that he did hit someone at that time. But he was
There is no way I can get away with hooking up with a maid because I am my husband-in-law. I should not be the only one who saw this happening!"
After saying this, several people also stood up. Zi Cheng had just seen it, and he thought they were husband and wife. Song Zhiqian waited for the prefect Su Rong to ask Ning Yi, but the answer he got was also affirmative.
But only the next sentence made him feel a little confused.
"Xiaochan and I are very happy with each other. In a few days, I will take her as my concubine."
After saying this, there was an uproar. Lu Tuizhi frowned. Qian Xiwen, who had been keeping his eyes down as if he didn't care about anything, also frowned, and there was a lot of whispering. Lu Tuizhi looked at the people who had been quiet.
Su Tan'er: "Ms. Su, he married into your house. What do you think about this matter?" "Reporting to your lord, this matter was arranged by me." He had been sitting there quietly, saying nothing.
The expressionless woman opened her mouth at this moment. She glanced at Ning Yi and smiled softly.
"Sister-in-law... How can a new-in-law take a concubine?"
"The Great Wu Law did not say that a surrogate son-in-law cannot take a concubine.,,
Her voice was soft and moving, and she answered matter-of-factly. Everyone looked at the couple who didn't understand each other strangely. Song Zhiqian looked at it from a distance, blinked his eyes, and was stunned, but then he came to his senses: "
She actually told such lies for this arrogant man..." However, Su Tan'er had already taken a step forward, crossed Ning Yi's body, and relaxed slightly.
"My lord, it is strange. Ning Lang did marry into my concubine's family, but it was my concubine who made the decision to marry Xiao Chan. I was originally a merchant girl, and Chang Ge in the family had an affair with an elder in Ning Lang's family.
When it came to the marriage contract, my father only had one daughter, Concubine, who was very successful in business. I have been in charge of the family business since I was a child. Ninglang knew about my family situation and sympathized with my hard work, so he married me..."
Although Su Tan'er cleaned Ning Yi's wounds before, she always seemed silent, even a little deserted. In the eyes of everyone, they thought she was in a complicated mood and was angry. Even if she took into account the general situation, her mood must be extremely complicated. Until now.
She didn't speak until she spoke. Although some people reacted instantly and thought she was lying, Su Tan'er continued to speak softly and sincerely, word for word, and for a while, no one could interrupt her.
"Although I was born a merchant, my parents also hired people to teach me poetry and prose since I was a child, and I read Nu Shu Nu Tu. If it weren't for the burden of the family that I had been carrying since I was a child and couldn't let it go, I would rather have married Ning Lang myself.
Instead of letting Ning Lang get married. Now I know that it was because of my own selfishness and made Ning Lang make too many sacrifices. Unfortunately, it is hard to change my mind..." These words are very convincing. Although he is a merchant,
But Su Tan'er did receive the same education as a rich lady when she was a child. At this time, she was wearing white clothes and white skirt, with a dignified and soft face. She stood there, tall and elegant. While speaking, she glanced at Ning Yi, and her eye circles were already red. Others may be afraid.
They had already guessed that the two were married since childhood. Later, when Su Tan'er wanted to take over the family business, Ning Liheng was willing to marry into his wife. Although this kind of sacrifice seemed strange, it actually happened before our eyes. "As for the little one,
Chan, she and I have grown up together since childhood. It is not an exaggeration to say that they are like sisters.
Ning Lang has a gentle temperament, and after he got married to me, he was kind to the maids and servants at home. Everyone who came to Hangzhou with me knew this. When we got married, I asked Xiao Chan to serve Ning Lang.
Ning Lang has treated her like a sister, and it has been more than two years now, and everyone in the family knows about this..."
"That's true. As soon as my brother-in-law entered Su's house, it was Xiaochan who served him." Su Wending raised his hand and interjected.
Su Tan'er put one hand in front of her, stretched out the other hand, gently shook Ning Yi's hand, raised her head, smiled and took a breath.
"Although I have read poems and essays since I was a child, I don't actually understand poetry and essays very well. Ninglang is a famous talent in Jiangning. I have admired him since I was a child. Although he is married to me, I respect him and love him.
, I have always been no different from ordinary women. His pity and tolerance for me have always been in my heart. The sincerity of this heart can be learned from heaven and earth..." She said these words word by word, honestly speaking.
, a bit disgusting, people are conservative at this time, and many people have probably never thought about such a scene in their lives, but the woman stood there, and her words echoed in the hall, and she said it as a matter of course, frankly, and
At that time, the ship was so quiet that you could hear a pin drop.
Many women's eyes were already a little red after the initial shock.
As for many men, including Song Zhiqian, they continued to be dumbfounded. They didn't know what it was like in their hearts. They were envious, jealous or resentful. Lou Shuwan pursed her lips, held her chin with one hand, and turned to look at him. After a moment,
