"In the past two years, I have been promoted and my salary has increased. However, the imperial treasury is empty and the salary is often in arrears. What can my master do? I am a woman who brings two side houses with me and works as embroidery workers and sells them to support the family.
?”
"Young master, if you don't ask those corrupt officials who live in the inner city, whose homes have deep courtyards, carved beams, and hundreds of servants, why do you come to ask about my home?"
After several consecutive scoldings, Li Chen was scolded into disgrace.
When Sanbao saw Li Chen being wronged, he was about to have a fit.
Li Chen waved his hand to stop Sanbao.
"That's right. I was the one who was rude. I need to make amends to Madam."
Li Chen actually bowed to the woman in purple.
Now, the woman in purple was embarrassed.
"No, no, it's just that I, a woman, don't know how to behave. It's just that our family is in a state of decline right now, and the master will most likely not be able to get out, and I don't know what the future will hold."
The woman in purple started to cry again as she spoke.
At this time, Xu Junlou came over and said to Li Chen: "This young master really doesn't want to receive guests at home. If there is nothing else, can you please go back temporarily?"
This time, Li Chen didn't insist anymore.
He walked to the door and suddenly seemed to remember something. He turned to Xu Junlou and asked: "Your uncle won you a place in the imperial examination before, did you know?"
Xu Junlou looked miserable and said: "I know, I was already reviewing my lessons, but now it seems that there is no chance."
"Come and study hard."
Li Chen said calmly: "Your uncle will come back."
Xu Junlou was stunned. Before he could speak, Li Chen had already left with Sanbao.
"Aunt, is this person really my uncle's friend?" Xu Junlou asked.
The woman in purple shook her head and said: "Your uncle never lets me know about his official affairs. He doesn't have any friends. Others don't like his temperament, and he can't fit into those people's circles. This person,
I have not seen."
Xu Junlou seemed to have decided something, he gritted his teeth and chased out.
"Sir, please stay!"
Li Chen, who walked to the gate of Xu's house, heard Xu Junlou's voice and turned to look over.
Xu Junlou came to Li Chen out of breath, and suddenly bowed to the end. He said sincerely: "I don't know the surname of the young master, but the noble character of the young master is very noble, and he is definitely not a common man. If you can, you can still
Please help my uncle redress his grievance. Even if he loses his official position, it will be a good thing for him to come back. It is a great kindness and kindness. Beihong is willing to repay it like a cow or a horse."
Li Chen laughed, turned to Sanbao and said, "See, this is called emphasizing love and righteousness."
Sanbao nodded and admired Xu Junlou for being such a young man who knew how to repay kindness.
"Okay, I get it."
Li Chen said: "Put your heart back in your stomach and tell your aunt. Don't be too sad and worried. She will definitely come back. As for being a cow or a horse, it depends on your ability."
Xu Junlou was stunned when he heard this.
What does this mean?
If you want to be a bull and a horse for this young man, what qualifications do you need?
But before he could think about it, Li Chen had already left.
This time, he never caught up.
"Your Highness, shall we go back to the palace?"
After leaving the Xu family, Sanbao asked.
"Go to the Penal Department Prison."
Li Chen said indifferently: "This evil trend in the Criminal Department should be rectified."
Sanbao's eyes lit up when he heard this, and he immediately changed direction and headed towards the location of the Criminal Department in the inner city.
