Yuan Zheng looked "You are a troublemaker but I will tolerate you", looked at Li Baolu forbearingly and generously and said, "Li Shi, how much time do you want to delay us?"

Li Baolu tilted her head and said: "But I am a woman, don't you say that women marry and obey their husbands? My husband is not at home now, so I dare not make up my mind in private. Although I may cause you trouble, I am very sorry, but I Still dare not draw a bet."

Li Baolu suddenly smiled, blinked and said, "Why don't you change the secular laws so that women can be independent?"

Yuan Zheng was taken aback, he didn't expect Li Baolu to make such absurd request.

But Li Baolu had already knocked on the door, stood inside the door and nodded to him with a smile: "Let this old man make a trip for nothing, next time you come here remember to wear official uniforms or bring paperwork, otherwise I will suspect that someone is pretending to be an officer. As for I really can't make up my mind about closing the case, this gentleman might as well wait another four days, my husband will come out after four days, and then I will draw the pledge again."

"However, at that time, the case was only one day away from automatic closure. I don't think it matters if you sign or not?" Li Baolu waved to them happily, "There is only a little girl in the family, so it is inconvenient, so I will not lighten the official. Grandpa is coming in."

After that, he closed the door with a bang.

Not only the people outside were stunned, but Shun Xin and the cook were also stunned, "Husband, madam, is it okay for us to lock the official out like this?"

"It was almost a fight, but I restrained myself from being locked outside." Li Baolu carried the basket back to the kitchen, curled her lips and said, "If you want to force me, there is no window."

The cook patted her chest and said with lingering fear: "Madam doesn't know, they were very aggressive when they first arrived, I'm afraid they will break in."

Li Baolu snorted softly, but she also knew that if they broke in, she really couldn't do anything to them.

According to the law, it is against the law for them to do so, but officials have always been overbearing in their work, so who will care?

Li Baolu was able to beat them back, and it was not difficult to defeat them with her force value, but the government didn't care about the right or wrong reasons when fighting with officials, it was all her fault.

Therefore, Li Baolu would not do anything unless she had to.

"I'm startled, let's make more delicious Suppression tonight."

Feeling embarrassed, "Ma'am, didn't you say it was for celebration?"

"Then do more."

Shun Xin muttered to help the cook wash and chop vegetables, while Li Baolu turned around and quietly left the house, watching Yuan Zheng change his face outside the door, and then left with a flick of his sleeves.

Li Baolu thought for a while, went back to her room, took out her purse and counted it, and finally took out five taels of silver and sighed, it seems that she had to find time to worship the God of Wealth, the fairy map must be sold, otherwise they will really be poor To beggars.

Li Baolu took the money to buy a lot of snacks and came back. The neighbors helped her a lot just now, and she still has to do all the courtesy she should.

She has been reclusive and a guest, so she only nods to her neighbors, and Zhao Ning does not have close contacts with them, and usually greets them when they meet, but they were willing to stand up for her in that situation just now.

Naturally, this love cannot be exchanged for a snack, but sending it over can show her position, and she will remember their love.

Li Baolu bought a lot of dim sum and made more than 20 servings, and let Shun Xin and the cook deliver four servings for the family.

"Madam, they accepted them all, and said that in the future, if there is any difficulty in the house, just call them, and they will help if they can." The cook hesitated and said: "Madam, the lady who is the head catcher next door reminded us to let us Let's be more careful, I'm afraid those official appointments in the daytime will not be settled so easily, and there will be troubles in the future, I think you might as well be soft, the magistrate has sentenced this case."

"Then how?" Shun Xin yelled: "Could it be that our sins are for nothing? If Madam hadn't taken precautions in advance, my son and Mr. Gu would definitely not be able to catch up with the exam just like Mr. Wen and the others. Waiting for three years would be in vain."

Shun Xin grew up with Zhao Ning and was loyal to the Zhao family. She knew that the obsession of the old man and the master was to pass the exam.

In the face of the ideals of the whole Zhao family, all obstacles in the way will be cut off, cut off!

Not even the magistrate.

Shun Xin turned her head and said to Li Baolu: "Ma'am, don't listen to her about this matter. If you sign the closing document here, Mr. Zhao and the others will find nothing from the clues you gave and they will not be able to use it as evidence."

Li Baolu nodded, "Don't worry, I won't cheat fellow Daoists like that."

She only cheats enemies, and has always been as gentle as spring breeze and rain to friends. Generally, only non-ordinary enemies can enjoy the wind and rain.

And at night, those who came to visit at night enjoyed the treatment like a storm.

Those people felt pain in their cheeks when they jumped out of the yard, and they were slapped hard with a "slap".

The person who was beaten was a little confused, touched his face and asked, "Who hit me?"

The four partners standing beside him and behind him all felt a gust of cold wind blowing through them, and their backs shivered, and they shivered involuntarily.

The five looked at each other, and the other four immediately shook their heads and said in unison: "It's not me!"

Seeing that his face was red and swollen, and the slap prints were also revealed, the expressions of the other four people changed, and they said in trembling voices: "Okay, it seems to be a child's slap, this, this can't be a haunted house, right?"

"What nonsense are you talking about?" The person who was beaten touched his cheek and said sharply: "Someone must be playing tricks, who is it, come out, don't hide your head and show your tail."

With a "slap", he slapped him hard on the left side of the face, making him stagger and almost fell to the ground.

The others were so frightened that their faces turned pale, because they were standing in front of that person, and they dared to swear that they never saw the sixth person there, and none of the four of them made a move.

so……

"Damn—"

The five people were so frightened that they staggered and ran to the door.

The "ghost" was silent for a while, and then quickly grabbed the four people who had fled in all directions by their collars and threw them back. Then the sound of slaps rang out uninterruptedly. The man didn't even utter a scream, and fell to the ground with a few "bang bangs" - he was knocked out directly.

Li Baolu flashed out from the darkness, looked at the fainted person and sneered, if he wanted to scare her, he had to practice his courage first.

Li Baolu mentioned two people and jumped onto the wall, and threw them directly to the entrance of the alley, then came back to pick up the remaining three, and after a while, the five of them were lying in the entrance of the alley without knowing what happened.

Li Baolu clapped her hands and went home happily.

In the end, the watchman who was on watch found them and almost frightened him to death. He accidentally touched a person's hand and found that it was soft and warm, so he knew that the person was still alive. Report the crime.

The five people were carried back to the government office, and they were surrounded by waves of vicious onlookers the next day.

No way, these five people are also yamen servants, and they are usually quite arrogant, but they didn't expect to turn into pig heads today. If it wasn't for the fact that their bodies hadn't changed, everyone really couldn't recognize them.

They were very curious about who would dare to attack the yamen servants. In this era, this is much more serious than assaulting the police.

The five of them agreed in unison, and said affirmatively, "What we met was a brat."

"A child? Which family's child is so courageous?"

"Not a child, but the ghost of a child."

"Maybe there's more than one. He was so fast that he knocked us out."

All the yamen servants: "..."

Yuan Zheng who came to inquire about the news: ...

All the yamen servants: "You have been beaten stupid, how can there be ghosts in this world?"

"It's really a ghost. The five of us stood facing each other, and the slap fell on our faces. We couldn't even see a shadow. What do you say it's not a ghost?"

"It's so dark at night, even if some people can't see it, it's understandable..."

"The moon was so round last night, where is it dark? At least we can see clearly around us. It's really a ghost. I'm afraid there are many little ghosts living in the yard rented by those two scholars," one of them was swollen like a ghost. The pig-headed man said with a pale face, "Anyway, I will never go to that alley again, and whoever you like will go."

Yuan Zheng's face was gloomy, he glanced at the five people who were watching, turned around and left.

He clenched his hands into fists, obviously extremely angry, he still underestimated the little woman.

ghost?

Hmph, how can there be ghosts in this world!

Yuan Zheng looked in the direction of the ceremony room, and only hoped that his son would stand out this time. As long as he was good enough, even if he couldn't completely suppress this matter by then, the Ou family would not dare to blame his son for this matter.

Li Baolu's side was completely quiet, people from the yamen no longer came to the door, and no one came to disturb them at night.

Not only was Yuan Zheng afraid of what happened that night, but also because he and Ou Tongpan were struggling with Wen Sheng and the others.

After Wen Sheng and others jointly signed the letter, they quickly spread the matter through public opinion, forcing Zhou Yi to file another case for investigation.

Ou Tongpan and Yuan Zheng were in a hurry to wipe Ou Dunyi's butt. Although he had sent Shuboys and servants to invite outsiders to deal with these scholars, they were not clean enough because they were still alive.

Ou Tongju can only find out those people, and deal with those who can't be sent away far away, so as to prevent Wen Sheng and others from getting a trace of evidence.

There is no evidence, only suspicion and speculation, they can't do anything about Odunyi.

For Yuan Zheng, if Ou Dunyi is safe, then Yuan Fang is safe, so he tried his best in this matter.

When they were fighting each other, the incident became more and more troublesome. Except for the invigilator who was still locked in the ceremony room, the examiner and the examinees didn't know about it. All the officials and people in Guangzhou heard about it, and even the common people began to discuss it quietly. .

This dealt a big blow to Zhou Yi's official voice, he said to the master angrily: "This matter must be settled as soon as possible, and I don't have to be an official if the trouble continues."

The master was silent for a moment and said: "Why don't you mediate between them and let them reconcile in private?"

Zhou Yi's face was ugly, "Will those scholars be willing to mediate?"

"Everyone has weaknesses. Ou Dunyi is not stupid. Most of the people he targets are those who have no roots and poor children. Most of these people can be solved with money. If they can't be solved with money, they can be lured with other benefits. It just depends on Ou Tongjuan's willingness." What a price to pay."

Zhou Yi frowned thoughtfully.

"My lord, the damage has already been done. Anyway, they can't retake the exam. They can only wait for another three years. The so-called justice is just to let Ou Dunyi go into exile. It's better to let Ou Dunyi go and get some benefits, even if it's money."

Money is a good thing. If his family had money back then, even if he couldn't apply for an official, he could take the exam a few more times, maybe he would pass the Jinshi exam and become an official?

And those poor children obviously need money, such as that Qiao Xu.
