"Isn't this a bit too coincidental?" someone couldn't help but blurt out.
Miss Jun didn't feel offended at all, but nodded in agreement.
"It's such a coincidence," she said, "I don't even believe it myself."
If you don’t believe it yourself, what can we say?
The people in the room were silent again.
But someone made a sound.
That was a servant of the Fang family standing in the corner.
"Speaking of children." He suddenly thought of something, "I remembered that a child did come to the door of the house, but you, old lady, had just come back at that time. People in the family were coming in and out in a hurry to clean up the memorial. That child
When he approached, everyone thought he was just watching the fun and scolded him, and the child turned around and ran away."
From a family like the Fang family, according to Miss Jun, the child of a firewood seller is a child from the countryside. He is inevitably timid and fearful, but he will not be scared away by shouting.
I see.
It turned out to be so.
This is really... I don’t know what to say.
But Miss Jun obviously had something to say. She looked at Old Mrs. Fang with twinkling eyes.
"Does our family really have an imperial edict?" she asked.
Can an imperial edict be false? If it is false, then taking it out would be a recipe for death.
Besides, is this the time to be as curious as a child?
Instead of apologizing for his reckless behavior, he only asked about this with concern.
What do you want from the imperial edict?
Take it to the Ning family to force them to agree to the marriage?
There were still people in the room who couldn't help but think wildly.
"Of course it's true. I took it with my own hands all night." Fang Chengyu said, as happy and serious as a child. He looked at Old Mrs. Fang and said, "Grandma, grandma, show it to my cousin."
It turned out to be an imperial edict.
The people in the room also thought about it again at the same time.
At that time, I was so focused on following orders and finding someone that I didn't have time to think too much. Now that I'm quiet and thinking about this, I feel dizzy and like I'm dreaming.
The Fang family actually holds the imperial edict given by the late emperor.
"Yes, it is an imperial edict." Fang Chengyu said with a smile, "So don't worry, we are not afraid of anything, everything will be fine, you will be fine."
He said it casually, as long as you are fine.
Smashing the door of the Lin family, turning Yangcheng upside down, alarming all the officials in Taiyuan Prefecture who rushed back all night, and everyone from the white-haired old woman to the cardamom girl running around looking for him all night, these things are nothing.
The people in the room looked at Fang Chengyu with even more complicated expressions.
Nothing is okay, just be fine...
Is this okay?
Magistrate Ma snorted heavily.
Since we are talking about the imperial edict, let’s talk about the imperial edict.
"Fang Cao." He said with a sullen face, "How do you plan to explain what happened last night to the people?"
They entered the house at this time, but the people who were frightened last night gathered in the street waiting for a reasonable explanation.
The imperial edict that was displayed in public was spreading as fast as the wind.
The origin of the imperial edict and the origin of Deshengchang will definitely become the focus of everyone's discussion, causing a huge storm. This storm will sweep through Yangcheng and then spread. It will not take long to reach the capital and reach the emperor's ears.
.
Presumably at the moment when Mrs. Fang unfolded the imperial edict last night, the spies of the Yangcheng Jinyi Guards had already sent the news out.
Logically speaking, having an imperial edict at home should be a joyful and exciting thing, but I don't know why everyone feels inexplicably uneasy.
Perhaps it was because of Mrs. Fang's calm face, perhaps because of her status as a merchant, or perhaps because of Miss Jun's misunderstanding that made last night's behavior ridiculous.
There was silence in the room.
There was a pop and someone knelt down.
"Old lady, this is all my fault." said the female voice.
Everyone seemed to have noticed the girl standing in the corner of the door and the strange man beside her.
Who is this person? How did he get in?
Seeing everyone looking over, Chen Qi was a little embarrassed.
"I, I..." He didn't know how to introduce himself, and when he saw Miss Jun looking over, he was overjoyed, "Young lady, you know, I am a candy seller."
The candy seller…
Weird things happen every year, especially today.
First, the Fang family took out the imperial edict of the late emperor, and then there was a candy seller standing in the hall of their Fang family openly.
"Chen Qi!" a steward shouted in a low voice, "Don't talk nonsense."
"He came in with me." Fang Jinxiu said.
Just now, Mrs. Fang and her group immediately left to go home. Although she was not asked to come back, Fang Jinxiu hesitated for a moment and still followed her back.
She originally thought that she would never step into Fang's house again, at least not for this period of time, but she didn't expect that she would come back after only one day.
No matter it was the women of the Fang family or the guards, doormen, stewards, and maids, they did not stop or question her at all. It seemed to be a matter of course.
Or maybe it's something unimportant.
Because he was closely following Fang Jinxiu, Chen Qi came in without anyone paying attention, and even stood in the hall of the Fang family where not everyone could enter.
"Actually, I don't want to either." Chen Qi murmured, "I'm sorry to go out after I come in."
Ignoring Chen Qi's interruption, Fang Jinxiu looked at Old Mrs. Fang and kowtowed.
"I caused this," she said, "I accept the punishment."
Mrs. Fang glanced at her without saying anything. Mrs. Fang didn't look at her the whole time. Yuan's expression was complicated, and Fang Yunxiu and Fang Yuxiu had a bit of worry in their eyes.
"How can I blame you?" Miss Jun said.
"It's her fault. Miss, she was the one who said that you were arrested by Chief Lin, causing us to make trouble." Liu Er wiped her tears and said, "She must have seen that Miss, you have secured your position in the family, and she was kicked out.
envy…"
The servant standing behind glanced at Fang Jinxiu.
This is the daughter of the concubine who was placed in the Fang family. Now she really has no place in the Fang family and has been kicked out. It is really pitiful. It is normal to be jealous and resentful.
She said that Mr. Lin arrested Mrs. Fang? What story is this? What is the dispute?
Magistrate Ma and other officials all frowned, more women would mean more trouble!
Miss Jun did not tell or question the story, she just smiled and stroked the girl's head.
"No." She said, "Don't blame her, what she said is the truth. I did talk to Lin Boss Bo, and then it happened that neither Lin Boss Bo nor I went home, and what was even more coincidental was that I and Lin Boss
I still have some old grudges, anyone would think so, don’t you think so?"
Liu'er cried out, feeling frightened again when she thought about what happened last night.
"Yes." She nodded and cried.
Fang Jinxiu wanted to say something else, but Mrs. Fang patted the table to interrupt her.
"Shut up, everyone." She shouted, then looked at Magistrate Ma, "What's the explanation? My child may have been kidnapped by bad guys. Isn't it normal for me to find someone?"
Magistrate Ma laughed angrily.
"Normal?" he said, raising his eyebrows, "Your Fang family took the holy grail and ran rampant in Yang City, turning the sky upside down. Is this normal?"
Old Mrs. Fang looked blank.
"Yes, when the late emperor gave my family the imperial edict, it was to protect us and help us solve our problems when we encountered them," she said.
Therefore, women's thoughts are really inexplicable and unreasonable.
This is the result of not having a man in the family.
Magistrate Ma pointed at Miss Jun and then at Old Mrs. Fang.
"Difficulties," he said, repeating the two words, "difficulties, these are the so-called difficulties you encounter."
After saying this, he sneered and rolled his sleeves.
"Ms. Fang Cao, since you are doing this according to the decree, I have no way or qualifications to explain it to the people. You can explain it yourself."
After saying that, he turned around and strode away with a puff of his sleeves.
The people watching in front of Fang's house watched the officials come out cheering and couldn't help but rush forward to wait to hear the expected news.
But the officials just mounted their horses one after another under the protection of the soldiers, dispersed the crowd, and left without saying a word.
The crowd in front of Fang's house made even louder noises, causing the officials who walked out to look back with complicated expressions.
I really didn’t expect it, I didn’t expect it.
The servant did not look back, but resumed his previous honest and easy-going attitude and followed closely behind the official.
"I really didn't expect that."
In the Fang family hall where the officials were sent away, the Fang family members had not dispersed yet, and Miss Jun looked at the imperial edict that Fang Chengyu took out and said with a complicated expression.
