"Hey!" The yellow skirt girl named Caiwei flashed her beautiful eyes, "Why can salt be turned into silver?"
After she finished speaking, she hesitated, took out a sugar cane and handed it to Xu Qi'an: "Well, this is for you to eat."
Is this bribing me... .
The two adults were gone, Xu Qi'an retracted his gaze, thought about it, and replied, "The Caomin has seen the alchemy secrets of turning salt into silver in ancient books."
The girl in the yellow skirt widened her eyes: "Where is the ancient book? Who is the author?"
It's called "High School Chemistry", as for the author... um, the People's Education Publishing House? Xu Qi'an said: "The ancient books have been destroyed long ago, but I still remember the contents below."
The girl in the yellow skirt took a quick breath: "Quick, tell me quickly."
Xu Qi'an sighed: "The grass people are at stake, and I really don't have the mood to be a teacher."
The girl in the yellow skirt gave him a roll of eyes and said angrily:
"You are a slippery person. We, the Tianjian Superintendent, do not interfere in the affairs of the state. How to deal with you is up to Your Majesty to decide. It is meaningless to sell it with me."
"It's fine if you take me in. With the status of Lord Jianzheng in the court, it's no problem if you want a convict who sits in a row." Xu Qi'an said.
He has to add an insurance for himself, in case he can't get the tax money back.
The yellow-dressed girl's bright eyes flowed and looked up and down: "You are obviously a warrior, why do you want to be a warlock."
Practice as early as possible, most practitioners have the foundation laid since childhood. Now it's too late for Takefu to turn into a warlock.
"It doesn't matter if you hug your thighs or not, the main thing is to admire the demeanor of Lord Jianzheng." Xu Qi'an said with a sincere tone and a serious expression.
"Then tell me the contents of the ancient alchemy book first." She thought about it. The girl's eyes were clear and bright, with big almond eyes and jet-black pupils, distinct in black and white.
Xu Qi'an had only seen such clean and beautiful eyes on a child in his previous life.
"The content is a bit difficult and esoteric, but it's just oral, I'm afraid you can't understand it. It needs to be taught in a simple way before it can be deeply rooted." Xu Qi'an fished.
Chu Caiwei rolled her eyes and was not convinced: "Looking at the world of Kyushu, when it comes to alchemy, our Tianjian warlock should be the leader."
"Hydrogen, lithium, beryllium, boron, carbon, nitrogen, oxygen, fluorine, neon, sodium, magnesium, aluminum, silicon, and phosphorus..." Xu Qi'an was recited.
"???"
What is he talking about? The girl was stunned for a long time, and her eyebrows stood upright: "You are playing with me. Our Si Tianjian accepts disciples, but only boys."
She snatched back the sugar cane in Xu Qi'an's hand.
Light footsteps left, skirt flying.
I'm also a boy. Xu Qi'an opened his mouth, and then he understood that Si Tianjian accepted his disciples from the dolls.
Yes, there is no way to go.
…
Two days passed in a flash, and Xu Qi'an spent two days in fear in the cell.
He was afraid that the tax money could not be recovered in time. If it was after his exile, even recovering it would not change the outcome.
Then, if Chen Fuyin is a black-hearted maggot and takes all the credit, it is still a dead end.
But there is no way, he can only do this step, what can he do if he is a prisoner
Xu Qi'an once again felt the horror of feudal society.
"Let it be fate..." Xu Qi'an sighed.
'Bang! '
The iron door at the end of the corridor opened, and a jailer came in with a fire stick, took out the key and opened the door: "Xu Qi'an, you can go!"
Xu Qi'an was ecstatic and clenched his fists hard: "Have the tax silver been found?"
"Follow me to sign and sign, and you can leave." The jailer looked at him: "Your life is really big."
"What about my second uncle?" Xu Qi'an asked eagerly.
"Don't talk nonsense, just follow." The jailer was very short-tempered, and the fire stick hit Xu Qi'an's buttocks and drove him out of the cell.
Arranged by an official in the yamen, he signed and detained, and then obtained the clothes he had taken off when he was thrown into the prison from the jailer.
A yamen led him out of the yamen of Jingzhao Mansion and out through the back door.
At this time, the eastern side was slightly Xi, and the streets were cold.
…
Bang!
Xu Pingzhi was awakened by the sound of the iron door opening, he opened his eyes, his eyes were bloodshot.
The unkempt Xu Pingzhi's face is somewhat similar to Xu Qi'an, but it is Xu Xinnian, his own son, whose facial features are too handsome and completely different from the two of them.
In the cell across the corridor, Li Ru, who was in a drowsiness, was shocked, and then woke up with a haggard face and an expression of extreme horror on her face.
The couple looked at each other across a corridor, and Li Ru said sadly, "Master, even if I die, I won't enter the Jiaofang Division."
She is thirty-five years old this year, well-maintained, and a beautiful woman with excellent charm. Even after five days in prison, she is haggard and unable to hide the amorous feelings between her brows and eyes.
Where is Jiaofangsi
It is a purgatory for women.
The scarred Xu Pingzhi opened his mouth, but was speechless, and suddenly burst into tears: "Madam, I'm sorry for you. Our husband and wife went to Huangquan together, and I'll make you a cow and a horse to make up for you in the next life. It's just pity for the child. , and my nephew."
Five days have passed, and he was greeted by a knife and beheaded, and the daughter of the family was greeted by the Secretary of Jiaofang. In addition to Li Ru, the Xu family also has two daughters, the eldest daughter who is twenty-eight years old and the youngest daughter who is five years old.
They were huddled in the corner of the cell, also awakened at this time.
The five-year-old girl rubbed her eyes and murmured "mother", she didn't know anything about her own destiny.
The sixteen-year-old girl sat up, her loose hair lined a fair face with melon seeds, her small mouth was thin and ruddy, her eyes were large and powerful, and her nose was not as small as an ordinary woman's, but tall and straight. As a result, the facial features are particularly three-dimensional, particularly delicate and beautiful.
There is a kind of still sculpture-like beauty.
She leaned closer to her mother subconsciously, her thick eyelashes trembling slightly for fear.
Several prison guards with knives on their waists and hips strode in.
Li Ru's eyes flashed with despair and determination.
Xu Pingzhi clenched the fence with both hands, his joints were pale, his steel teeth were clenched, he lost tax and silver, and he was derelict in duty.
Especially the young girl, who was only five years old, had to be sent to the Jiaofang Division to be raised, and her life was dark.
How to be content as a parent.
"Xu Pingzhi, come out with me, you can leave after signing the painting." The jailer opened the cell door without shackles them, standing in the corridor, knocked on the fence with the end of the knife, and motioned for them to come out on their own.
"Xu Pingzhi was patriotic and loyal to the monarch all his life, and his whole family was loyal... eh, what did you say?" Xu Ershu suspected that he had heard it wrong.
What do you mean
"Can you leave? You said you can leave just now." Xu Pingzhi couldn't believe it for a while: "What's the matter, didn't you take me out to behead me?"
"I don't know." The jailer said angrily, "This is an order from above. I want to know if I go out and ask."
Li Ru was at a loss, holding her two daughters, the family silently followed behind the jailer and walked towards the end of the corridor.
"Old, lord... You're not lying to us, are you?"
"How could it be such a child's play." Xu Pingzhi was injured and stumbled while walking. He was also confused, with the joy of not dying, and at the same time he was at a loss to understand the situation.
Li Ru's heart moved: "It's the New Year, it must be the New Year's day, when you run around outside, help us manage our relationship, and let the court open up."
The more she thought about it, the more she felt it was possible, and she said excitedly: "Master, don't forget that the teacher for the new year is Yuanjing's 18th year's minister of punishment."
The 18th year of Yuanjing... It was more than 20 years ago... Xu Pingzhi felt that it was wrong, and he couldn't think of anyone else who could count on him without a big backer in the officialdom.
"maybe."
"I just said that our family's New Year is the dragon among people. Back then, I asked him to practice martial arts, but if you didn't agree, you insisted on letting Xu Qi'an's little bunny practice martial arts."
"Mother, Tutu is so cute, I want to eat Tutu." The little girl raised her little face and bit her little finger, with the word "greedy" written in her eyes.
"I know how to eat all the time..." Li Ru, who was short-tempered, scolded subconsciously, looking at the little girl with a dirty face, her face softened immediately, "Good, there will be rabbits eating soon."
Xu Pingzhi was too lazy to explain to her that 'your son has no talent for martial arts'. Anyway, no matter how many times I say it, my wife will automatically ignore it.
In the eyes of a mother, a son is always the best.
When he arrived at the place where the signature was drawn, Xu Pingzhi took the pen from the government official, and his fingers trembled slightly.
Just like a seed buried deep in the ground emerges from a seedling and sees the sun.
The world has suddenly become so beautiful, and there is obviously not a single copper plate.
Wife and daughter do not need to sign, just press their handprints.
Xu Pingzhi couldn't hold back his curiosity, and said, "This lord, I don't know, I don't know why I have been spared the sin."
Li Ru immediately looked at the official.
"The case has been solved, and the tax has been recovered," the official replied.
"The tax silver was recovered? Haha, okay, okay! Damn monster, how dare you rob me of the tax money."
Uncle Xu was quite excited, and after laughing, he felt that according to the great observance of the law, although the tax and silver were recovered, it was also true that he was derelict in duty.
It is not his credit to recover the tax silver, how could the court spare him the death penalty
Even if he falls from the kennel, he is still on the edge of exile.
"Master Xu, this is your official robe, put it away." The official presented the green robe of the seventh-grade military officer that had been pulled out earlier.
He was even reinstated as an official... Xu Pingzhi realized that something was wrong, he took the official robe, and said solemnly: "This lord, can you explain the confusion for this official?"
With the official robe in hand, this official said with a bit of confidence.
Logically, even if the death penalty is exempted, it should not be the official reinstatement.
"According to the law, if there are elders in the family who trigger the law, the offspring can make meritorious deeds for their father," said the official.
"It's really Nian'er, sir, Nian'er helped the court to recover the tax and silver." Li Ru cried with joy.
"Nian'er..." Xu Pingzhi's eyes were wet: "My good son."
The official glanced at the excited couple and said, "It's your nephew Xu Qi'an, he helped the governor to solve the tax case, he just left."
