If your mother dies, do you have to observe mourning for three years?
Li Youzhi suddenly turned around, "What do you want to do?"
"I'm just telling the truth." Chu Yunli said calmly, "She's already so ill, what else do I need to do? Maybe she won't wait until winter..."
Li Youzhi interrupted her, "My mother is strong, don't say such things."
Although he said this, he was obviously panicked, his hands were shaking slightly, and he couldn't pick up the book three times.
"Deceiving yourself!" Chu Yunli said nothing and turned around. Before she had even taken two steps, she heard someone knocking on the door.
Outside the door was the government official, who asked the couple to question them.
When Mr. Li received them, he was not in the court, but in the back office. He was dressed in regular clothes, but his face was serious, "I came to you today because I want to ask about Lin's frame-up of Li Juren."
Hearing this, Chu Yunli was a little surprised. In fact, she didn't think there was anything more to ask about this matter. Although Lin Shuer only pulled the strings last year but did not take any action, she confessed her own crime. It would be difficult to overturn the case. If Shen hadn't After Qiuquan passed the exam, she went to see Mrs. Li again, but she hasn't come out yet.
This time this year, she also admitted it herself, and Mr. Li and his people were next door to listen to it from beginning to end. The evidence was conclusive, and there was no more questions to ask.
When Lin Shu'er was mentioned, Li Youzhi looked not very good, "Excuse me, sir."
Mr. Li also asked someone to serve tea to the two of them. The person who exited closed the door before he continued, "Actually, I heard with my own ears that Mrs. Lin framed you. Even if she didn't plead guilty, she could still be convicted. But... I When she was interrogating Mrs. Lin, she refused to answer at first and had to wait until she met Mr. Shen before she would speak. But Mr. Shen refused to come over from the beginning to the end..."
It’s strange to have come!
If there had been a careful investigation last year, Lin Shu'er might have been spared from jail, but the fact that Li Youzhi and Shen Qiuquan had an unmatched affair could not be concealed. Therefore, Lin Shu'er could only plead guilty.
This time this year... Lin Shuer personally admitted that she framed Li Youzhi, and she also did it herself. She would not be able to get away no matter what. If Shen Qiuquan intervened, he might also involve himself in it. Of course, he would stay as far away as possible good!
Mr. Li looked at Li Youzhi, "I couldn't wait for anyone to come. Mrs. Lin was probably resentful. When Mr. Shen came back, he was drunk and mentioned to her this year's Spring Festival. The reason why Mr. Shen passed the exam was It's because he bought the test questions in advance."
His face became more serious, "Fraud in imperial examinations has occurred in all dynasties, but if it is true, it will be a river of blood. This matter involves a lot of things. I came to you just to ask Li Juren how Master Shen's previous knowledge was. ?You have also seen the test questions this time. Do you think it is possible that he will be among the best in high school with his own ability? "
Chu Yunli and Li Youzhi were sitting closest to each other. From the corner of their eyes, they saw a hint of excitement on his face. After taking two deep breaths, he said, "It's a big deal. I don't dare to talk nonsense. It's just... I used to be with Third Brother Shen and Fourth Brother Shen. Brother Qian and Brother Qian are classmates and good friends. Among the three of them, Brother Qian is the most knowledgeable, while the two brothers Shen are weaker."
In other words, if Qian Xing failed, Shen Qiuquan had almost no chance of winning.
Mr. Li was silent for a while and said, "I wonder if you would like to write down a testimony so that I can send it to the capital and submit it to the imperial court for the emperor to make a decision."
Li Youzhi's eyelids twitched.
This matter is of great importance. If Shen Qiuquan does cheat, he will certainly have merit. But if there is no cheating in the examination, he will not be able to escape the reputation of being jealous of virtuous people. This will go straight to the emperor. It is very likely that this will leave a bad impression in front of the emperor... ...Even if he wins in the future, his official career will not be high in this life. Maybe the adults who graded the papers saw him and brushed him off directly because of this matter.
If it were just an ordinary person, Li Youzhi might have given up. The risk is too high!
But Shen Qiuquan... was the one who had a big grudge against him. He thought that he had not wronged Shen Qiuquan, but his current situation could be said to be inseparable from Shen Qiuquan. Moreover, he thought that among the four, he He has the best knowledge, and Shen Qiuquan is just jealous!
After pondering for a few breaths, Li Youzhi raised his head and said, "Only through fair imperial examinations can we select the world's most knowledgeable people to relieve the emperor's worries. To this end, I am willing to contribute."
Mr. Li was very pleased and asked someone to send him some pen and ink. Li Youzhi stepped forward and wrote an article eloquently.
Within two days, Lin Shuer's sentence was handed down, and she was sentenced to eight years in prison.
Master Li specially found a doctor to see Li Youzhi. After learning that he was indeed infected with the disease and that it was difficult to cure, he was sentenced to eight years.
Shen Qiuquan didn't know that he was suspected. Over there, Lin Shuer was sentenced, so he quickly packed his luggage and took his wife and children to his post.
When the matter came to an end, Li Youzhi was also very anxious, because Li's mother's condition was getting worse and worse. He had recently searched all the doctors in Luocheng, and only hoped that his mother could survive for more than half a year until he finished the exam. .
Li's mother's condition is not optimistic. To say she is dead, she has already been surviving for half a year. Even doctors are not sure how long older people can survive. Whether they can survive until next year depends entirely on God's will.
In the afternoon, Li Youzhi was checking his luggage in the house. He left probably for the past two days. After struggling for a long time, Chu Yunli was unwilling to pay for the money. He didn't have much money and could only go by land, so he had to leave early. !
Chu Yunli was arranging the lines in the yard, watching with cold eyes, wondering whether to let him fall again or let Li's mother die... Anyway, he couldn't be allowed to take the exam!
There was a knock at the door, and Mrs. Chen had already opened it. The two people who came in were very surprising. They were actually Mr. Ruan's aunt and nephew.
Both of them were dressed in common clothes, without any hairpins or jewelry on their bodies. Each of them was carrying a baggage. They looked like ordinary women, no longer as wealthy as they once were.
When the two saw Chu Yunli, Ruan Xiaolian was a little scared. Ruan also knew that she was a tough opponent and had no intention of making trouble with her. She just asked, "Are Li Ju and his mother here?"
At first glance, Chu Yunli pointed at the study room as it seemed that the person who came here was evil.
The two of them passed her and entered directly, and then heard Ruan's voice, "Give me back the money!"
Want money?
Of course Li Youzhi refused to give it, and soon there was an argument inside. Ruan Xiaolian was also cruel, "If you don't give it, I will go to the government office to file a complaint. There was no conspiracy between me and you at the beginning. You slandered Sister Lin." ! Or I can also say that you took advantage of the situation and forced yourself on me, and later forced my aunt to give you money... If you force people from good families and use this to blackmail money, Lord Zhizhou should make the decision for me! "
Ruan Xiaolian's words were a sure sign of Li Youzhi's destiny. Their beginnings cannot be revealed.
It didn't take long for the two of them to come out with the money. Chu Yunli asked, "Aunt Ruan, where are you going?"
Ruan patted the baggage and said, "Go back to your hometown. With this money, you won't be afraid of having a bad life."
go home?
Nowadays, many people know that Li Youzhi is ill, and Ruan Xiaolian will no longer be able to stay. But it doesn't matter, just wait until the matter here is over, and then deal with her. Chu Yunli narrowed his eyes and said, "
Your niece is too cruel, you have to be careful."
Ruan laughed and said, "You don't need to remind me!" She glanced at Ruan Xiaolian with disdain, "What good thing can someone who can climb into my uncle's bed be?"
Ruan Xiaolian lowered her head and said nothing, and the two left quickly.
As soon as they left, Li Youzhi came out and asked, "What do you want to do before you are willing to give me money?"
Chu Yunli continued the work in hand, "As I said, I will not give it to you no matter what."
Li Youzhi lost his temper, calmed down his tone, and coaxed, "You gave me the money, I passed the exam, and your life will be easier. I will remember your goodness for the rest of my life... Please help me take good care of my mother, and wait for me
Come back! Okay?"
"No!" Chu Yunli said firmly.
Li Youzhi was helpless. He looked around while Chu Yunli was not at home, but he couldn't find a single coin. Seeing that she really wouldn't give it to him, he had to think about asking someone to borrow it again...
Not long after he went out, someone knocked on the door again outside the yard.
Ruan Xiaolian came back, her nose was bruised and her face was swollen, and she was still crying.
Chu Yunli was quite surprised, "What's going on?"
Ruan Xiaolian cried even harder, "My aunt beat me... and took away all the money. I can't go back, she will sell her if I go back..."
Although she knew that the relationship between the aunt and nephew was already bad, Chu Yunli didn't expect that Ruan couldn't bear it for a day, "Why don't you two stay in the Yang family?"
Ruan Xiaolian squatted at the door, "Mr. Yang has a new person and kicked us out."
Judging from her attitude, she must stay.
Originally, Chu Yunli could have driven her away. But there was an advantage in staying, so that she would not have to look for him again in the future.
When Li Youzhi came back, he saw Ruan Xiaolian at the door and frowned, "What are you doing here again?"
Ruan Xiaolian cried hard, "My aunt... hit me..." Her body was trembling slightly. If she didn't look at her face, she would still be pitiful.
But if you look at your face...it's bruised and swollen, and it's really not that beautiful.
Besides, Li Youzhi had fallen on women too many times, so he was extra vigilant, "Let me tell you, I have nothing to do with you! Get out of here!"
Ruan Xiaolian squatted on the ground, "I can do anything you ask me to do, but I can't go back... Master Yang forced me to do it at the beginning. You have never seen me before, and you didn't even ask. You just gave me the concubine release letter. You know
How uncomfortable was it when I saw that piece of paper? I wanted to die at that time!"
If she hadn't forced Li Youzhi to give her money just now, maybe he would have believed her words, but now, he had just run out to borrow money and was in trouble. He was filled with anger, so he picked her up and pushed her out!
Ruan Xiaolian held the door open and refused to leave. Seeing that crying was useless, she said fiercely, "If you chase me away, I will go to the government office now!"
Li Youzhi paused and looked at Chu Yunli behind him, who was holding his chin and looking relaxed. He pulled the person in, then closed the door with a bang, "You can stay here, live in the study!"
Hearing this, Ruan Xiaolian turned pale.
He is sick!
Anyone who cares can find out. If you sleep with him... you are seeking death!
Ruan Xiaolian lowered her head and spoke in a thin voice full of inferiority, "I have slept with Mr. Yang and I am not clean. I dare not serve him anymore. The old lady is sick, so I will go and serve her."
In order not to accompany him, he even took out Mr. Yang to disgust him. Li Youzhi snorted and said, "Either stay in the study room or get out!"
Ruan Xiaolian burst into tears. She was really scared, but she really couldn't go home. As soon as she returned, Ruan decided to sell her with a raised hand.
He walked slowly to the study room.
Li Youzhi looked at her back with heavy eyes and a heart filled with hatred. The woman who used to say she loved him the most now also despised him and even threatened...
