That little fly

Chapter 149 I am the Plaintiff

Chatting on such an occasion, in fact, there is no useful news, it is all about gossip and liaison, Young Master Zhuang and the two Li Yanei don't have to pester His Royal Highness to get familiar with him, His Highness is so famous, ten sentences If you can respond to you with a sentence or two, it will give you a big face. The experience and lessons of the yamen in friendship are far better than those officials from civilian backgrounds, and they will never flatter you for the sake of flattery.Speaking of long-sleeved and good at dancing, like a spring breeze is the basic skill of socializing, and the highest level of moisturizing things must be achieved in order to stimulate emotions.Besides, in addition to the crown prince, there is also Ning Renhou Shizi, and a group of Jin Wuwei brothers who can gain favor.Don't think of the Jinwu Guards as mere bodyguards. Once their qualifications reach the fifth rank, they must be sent to the local army. They are protected by capable, well-connected, and passionate bosses. There are many examples of being promoted to third-rank generals in their lifetimes. After all, the Jinwu Guard is the fastest ladder for promotion in the army.Thinking of this, Li Dayan suddenly remembered the conflict in the flower boat just now. Hey, the majestic Jinwu Guard, let alone the future, just looking at the current official title is enough to crush most officials in Anzhou City, but they were defeated by a group of small Landlords and squires, businessmen, and serial jokers despise him, and they are really beeping dogs.

"...Your hands are so thick." Ning Renhou Shizi's voice came from the barrel next door, Li Dayan turned his head, Shui Qingqian clearly disliked His Highness the Crown Prince.

His Royal Highness raised his hand and rubbed his fingertips, wondering, "Is there any?"

Shui Qingqian raised her hand and looked around. It was not the slender and bony feeling that is popular nowadays, but the traditional round shape. The shape of the hand is very beautiful, and the fingertips seem to be so tender that they are dripping water. In the words of the older generation, This is a blessing for the little hands.

After looking through it for a long time, Shui Qingqian said, "My hands are also a little thick."

Ji Zhao: ...

Li Yanei: ......

"Young master, there should be maintenance here."

"Of course." Li Yanei was unambiguous.Ya Nei is the most proficient in eating, drinking and having fun, so he raised his hand to ask the boy who shuttled to carry water to come over.Soaking in the bathhouse is just for health preservation, such as pushing the oil to open the back, pinching the feet for massage, whether it is useful or not, anyway, you can think of it, there is one here, there is one point that must be explained first, "The master's craftsmanship is nothing to say, this brother I dare Guaranteed, the best masters in Anzhou City are all here. But other things are worse." Li Yanei passed a look, and Shui Yanei understood it in seconds.The masters here rely on their craftsmanship for a living, which is different from those places that show their faces, so the implication is: the masters are all serious craftsmen, and there is no other service.

Why does Shui Qingqian care about these things? He wasn't impatient at first, and if he wanted other services, he could go to the Nanfeng Pavilion, what kind of bathhouse... son... ah... Shui Qingqian's thinking suddenly froze, The rusty brain was running at a slow speed: Why did he go to the Nanfeng Pavilion?Can I have an egg?Shui Qingqian finally changed his mind. If he wants to test whether he is masculine or not, do he need to go to the Nanfeng Hall to experience it? He was in Taixue, in the Martial Arts Academy, in the military camp, in the military department... He has been mixed up since he was a child. The places where he lived were full of men, especially when he lived in the military camp. A group of old men practiced shirtless every day, and even walked around naked when they took a shower in the evening. How little did he see?He is quite normal.Right now, Shui Qingqian looks at Li Ya Nei, who looks like a white chicken, next door, all kinds of muscular men next door, then at the same half-naked bathhouse master shuttling in the middle of the tub, and then at the same tub in the same tub. Ji Zhao.

really,

Only Brother Azhao, not only thinks it is seductive, he also wants to touch it (*///▽///*)

"Have you thought about what to do yet?" Ji Zhaohuang waved his hands to summon his soul, Shui Qingqian didn't speak for a while, just staring at himself in a daze.

"Yes! I want to do my nails, face, eyebrows, and hair care. What essential oils do you have here?" Shui Qingqian raised her head and asked the bathhouse master.

Ji Zhao, "..."

It was really an eye-opener, a room full of rough old men collapsed.

Brother Song poked around, "Do you have hot eyes?"

Li Ershao: "I was crushed in all directions." The elites are not as good as the elites, and the prodigals have been dumped for several blocks.

At first Li Ershao only guessed that Shui Qingqian should be a playboy, just because of that pretty face and that overly delicate and beautiful wrist bracelet.Even if he later found out about his origin in Ningrenhou's Mansion, Li Ershao didn't think it was a big deal. After all, he was just a big dandy in the yamen until they took a bath together in the bathhouse.As soon as everyone took off their clothes, it was obvious at a glance whether they were expected or not.For example, a group of Jinwu Guards, with wide shoulders and narrow waist and eight-pack abs, just because of their tendons, they deserve to be feared Jinwu Guards.And His Royal Highness can do this, which makes people admire His Highness's ability, perseverance and perseverance. It is not wrong for other pampered and well-off His Royal Highness to lose to such His Royal Highness.But that Shui Qingqian, who looks very dandy in the yamen, also has exquisite lines, is not a rib, let alone the slightest bit of fat, which makes Weisan's yamen panic a little bit.The body is the most honest thing, without the great perseverance of practicing three nines in winter and three days in summer, depending on your power, status and wealth, killing chickens for nothing is killing chickens for nothing.

Therefore, when Li Ershao had to revise his view of Shui Qingqian, thinking that this is a real *martial arts line* wealthy elite, Shui Qingqian became refined again, and really didn't give other dandies a chance to survive, listen , He is still discussing essential oils with the master, saying that he needs to wipe his hair, so he made a list and the master mixes them in proportion.Oh my god, isn't it the osmanthus hair oil that wipes the hair?What was he talking about, tea oil, chamomile oil, rosehip oil?

After the water was clear and shallow, I lay on a soft chair, shaving my face, hands, and hair. I don’t know what prescription he gave or what essential oil he mixed. After a while, the whole bathhouse was filled with water. A fragrance, not as strong as the floral fragrance of ordinary rouge powder, more like the freshness that can be smelled when going out in the forest after the rain in spring. It is the smell of grass and wild flowers mixed with dew and the earth. Take a sip, as if the whole chest is washed thoroughly .It's a feeling that's hard to explain clearly. Immersed in such a simple yet timeless taste, it seems that ordinary people have also become elegant and extraordinary.Ji Zhao leaned in the bathtub, looking at Qingqian with gentle eyes, surrounded by fragrance, this is the smell of Qingqian, just like the first time he saw him, sunny, clean and full of vitality.

The elegant time is fleeting, because taking a bath is very exhausting, so, not long after, everyone ran to lie down on the heated kang. This is a standard procedure in the bathhouse. What a wonderful thing!Everyone found that when they lay down on the heated kang, the heat followed the muscles of the entire back and penetrated into the internal organs and nerves. It was extremely hot, but it was also very comfortable.A group of old men immediately fell in love with it, and like salted fish, there was a long row on the Datong shop to dry.

This time, not only the water is clean and shallow but not forgetting the exquisiteness, but also a group of rough old men played exquisitely together, lying on the kang, asking the masseur to open their backs with essential oils, whether it is practicing martial arts or sitting at a desk all year round, there will always be some spots on their bodies. An annoying little problem, muscle knots, meridians stagnation, the experienced masseuse pushes all the big and small problems out.

It was also the first time for Shui Qingqian to experience this. The masseur's rough hands seemed to have been trained with iron sand palms. He kneaded, squeezed and beat him for a while, which made him wonder if they really had a life-and-death feud, and The master's eyes were so vicious that he seemed to be able to pick out his weakness. He pinched it precisely and twisted it wherever it hurts, causing physical tears to flow out.What kind of torture, torture, and so on, but that's it, right?

Due to facial problems, Shui Qingqian almost bit the towel in her mouth in order not to cry out in pain.His ears told him that the others were not much better, but apart from the occasional inaudible panting, the whole Chase was as quiet as a cemetery.snort!A group of people who want to save face and suffer, they are all in pain, but none of them have the guts to howl.Shui Qingqian's stomach was squeaking, and he scolded gods and Buddhas everywhere, but his face was calm, and he gritted his teeth and endured it when others didn't hum, just for four words: I Can't be cowardly!

But when I pushed it for the second time, all the previous discomforts, all the soreness, swelling and pain began to heat up, as if soaked in a honey pot, with the feeling of washing the essence and cutting the marrow, and opening up the two veins of Ren and Du. I feel so comfortable that my soul is out of my body, my body and soul are separated...

When Shui Qingqian's soul came back, it was already dawn, and he was lying on a carved bed, stretched out, the high bed was a warm pillow, and his inner clothes were all new—it was not surprising at all.

This is the backyard of the Anzhou Chief Secretary's Office. Since the local officials have received the news of His Royal Highness the Prince's visit, it is impossible for them to stay in the inn again. As for falling asleep in the bathhouse with clear water, it is How to wear the inner clothes, across half of the city, sleep in a certain master's room in the backyard of the mansion, and you can tell by the expressions of others.

With the identity and etiquette in line with the son of Ning Renhou's mansion, Shui Qingqian greeted several local officials in Anzhou city one by one. The last one was General Xiao who was in charge of the Anzhou government army, aha!For this one, there is no need to pretend to be a salute.

"Uncle Xiao (〃'▽'〃)" Shui Qingqian rushed over, this is the joy of meeting an old friend in a foreign land.

"Qingqian, sir, is your health okay?" Xiao Shen supported Shui Qingqian with a smile. Among the trembling and excited fourth-, fifth-, sixth- and seventh-rank magistrates in the room, he was the only one who kept his mind stable and looked relaxed. And can touch people with clear water and light hair.

"Grandpa is fine! But I'm not, my sea pearl was snatched away yesterday." Shui Qingqian complained directly.

Xiao Chu: ...

bad boy!

As if he didn't know what happened yesterday?

Xiao Chu, the Jinwu Guard who used to be the head guard for the Chief Law Officer, lived with Shui Qingqian under the same roof for a long time.He followed Shi Ke for a long time, and his qualifications reached the fifth rank early, so he was promoted and dispatched a few years ago, left the imperial capital, and no longer served as a guard for Lord Shi.But he had connections with Jin Wuwei in his early years, so when Shui Qingqian was still sleeping soundly, Xiao Chu had already arranged the security, and even got a clue about the whole situation.Well, he was not surprised at all when he got into trouble.

Shui Qingqian did not expect Xiao Chu to be a general of the Anzhou government army, she was so pleasantly surprised.He knew that Xiao Chu was sent to Youzhou Mansion to join the army at the fifth rank, but he didn't expect how long it took, and he was already a general at the fourth rank.

With acquaintances, things are easier to handle.

After exchanging greetings with all the local officials present, before anyone else could speak, Shui Qingqian turned his face with a righteous face, "Lord An, Lord Xiao, Qingqian in Xiashui, born in Ningrenhou Mansion, there is a clue to report a major case .”

Lord Ti Xing'an:? ? ?

"Mother Song, the manager of Cong Jinfang, has a jasper and ivory bracelet with dragons and pearls, four-clawed dragon, a tribute-level treasure, worth 20 gold. This bracelet was illegally plundered by Song's mother last night. I have witnesses." Shui Qing With a flick of his wrist, Qian gestured to indicate that his witness was the Prince, who was drinking tea in a calm manner.

Sir Ti Xing'an: ………

Other officials: _(3」∠)_

"I have other witnesses, including but not limited to, Mr. Zhuang from the Household Minister's Mansion, two Mrs. Li from the Anzhou Chief Secretary's Mansion, and eight serving captains of the Jinwu Guard."

Chief Secretary Mr. Li: ………

Other officials: _(3」∠)_

"You can summon them later, I believe they can answer all your questions truthfully, but because of the seriousness of the case, in order to prevent the illegal transfer of valuables, I implore Lord An to limit the scope of the suspect's activities as soon as possible, and ask Lord Xiao to send troops as soon as possible Block the scene of the incident and help Mr. An find the bracelet."

Xiao Chu: →_→

Other officials: _(3」∠)_

All the officials in the room were silent, peeking at His Highness the Crown Prince with quiet eyes, observing His Highness's reaction.The reaction of His Royal Highness was: no response.He put the teacup in his hand on the tabletop of the pear blossom table in a stable manner, as if he couldn't see a bright red velvet box between the teacup and his fist.In the box was a wrist bracelet of jasper and ivory dragon playing pearls, which was sent to the Chief Secretary's office by an official early in the morning; it was placed in His Royal Highness's Under the nose of the prince, under the nose of every official who greeted His Royal Highness, there is a sense of presence.And everyone in the room can be sure, sure, and sure that Shui Qingqian will also see this bracelet when he enters the door.

So what?

Shui Qingqian choked back all the possibilities with just one word: illegal transfer.

The thing was blackmailed by Song's mother under the watchful eyes of everyone. No matter who she followed in private, according to official procedures, this thing should be recovered from her hands.It is unreasonable to appear here through any inexplicable channel; second, it is illegal.She coveted what she shouldn't have, and if it was found, it would be a deadly crime; but if it couldn't be found, it would be an even worse crime.

I really deserve to be born in a famous family, and every sentence is aboveboard.

A certain official who was walked in had been sweating all over his face. Only now did he understand why His Royal Highness looked at him with that look when he saw him holding this thing over.This is not a wrist bracelet, nor is it a gentle beauty, this is a proper reminder... With a grunt, Shui Qingqian saw a certain adult fall off the chair, her face paled, and she fainted .

Oh, don't do his business, I don't know him well anyway.

Not only did Shui Qingqian not move by himself, but he also glanced around, his eyes made those who had intended to step forward to back off, with an indescribable aura, the room was full of officials, it was as if he could not see a single person Colleagues are about to have a myocardial infarction.

Master Li carefully interrogated the two sons about everything that happened yesterday, especially when he saw His Highness the Crown Prince hugging the sleeping Shuiqingqian house all the way, he couldn't help but have some thoughts in his heart.His Royal Highness, born in the middle palace, has superb abilities, and his image must be all kinds of majestic and upright, so any missteps can only be invited to be pampered by another villain. Generally high!

To put it more bluntly, this is a dandy yamen relying on the favor of the prince to do his best.

To put it bluntly, it is no different from the young lady in Nanfeng Hall.

Mr. Li's original thought was definitely not the only one who had this idea, but as soon as Shui Qingqianfu appeared on the stage, his demeanor, knowledge, orderliness, logic, and even his own aura... made those who didn't look down on Shui The simple official was awe-inspiring.Maybe, some people still have a bit of jealousy, jealousy of such a dude who "lucky" into the upper ranks by "reincarnation", but the attitude on the surface has to be corrected a bit.

Shui Qingqian doesn't have time to put white lotus flowers here or brush up the overlord's aura, and he's not familiar with it anyway.To put it bluntly, such a small official of the fifth, sixth and seventh ranks, whether he can survive his life and work in the Sixth Department of the Imperial Capital is still a question. Why does he care about them?

What matters most to him now is,

"Uncle Xiao——" Turning his face away, the bear boy raised a small long voice. It's not the plaintiff who has a strong aura, sharp words, is familiar with the law, and has a reasonable case. The two-year-old boy jumped up and down, "We, Let's hurry up, or people will run away!"

Xiao Chu: ...

Ji Zhao raised his hands and rubbed his temples.
