Department of Mirrors

Li Chen'an left Li Ji's grain shop, went to buy wine koji, thought that everything was complete, so he turned and walked towards Erjinggou Alley.

He didn't see a window on the second floor of a tea house at the east end of the alley, and a face appeared in the window.

That face was looking at him at the moment.

A sinister smile appeared on his face.

He is Li Chendong.

I went home from Huaping Lake on the night of the third day of March, saw my mother in a state of distress, and saw the disabled servants, and then realized that the idiot brother who passed by the door turned the house upside down .

So he wrote a petition and sued Li Chen'an to the Yamen on the fourth day of March.

Today, the yamen sent arresters to the shop in Erjinggou Alley to arrest people. According to the laws of Ningguo, if Li Chenan was expelled from the house, he would no longer be the eldest son of Li. years in prison.

With this prison record... even if he, Li Chenan, has great abilities, he will never think about the day when he will be an official again in this life!

Niang said that he had changed a lot, as if he was a different person.

These days, it seems that he has indeed changed a lot, but so what?

As long as you are sent to prison, there are plenty of ways to deal with you!

You come out a year later... You're already useless, but I, Li Chendong, have passed the Juren exam!

When you see me, you have to kneel on the ground and call out to Master Juren!

As for this tavern, of course it ceased to exist, and the money he invested was wasted.

"I'm calling you crazy! I'm telling you to make wedding clothes for other people for nothing!"

The depression of the broken halberd in Huaping Lake on the third day of junior high school dissipated from his heart at this moment, and he suddenly felt a hearty joy.

That's his brother!

Although they have the same father, they are not the same mother.

He never called him brother because...he is a scum of the Li family.

He is not worthy!

Picking up the teacup, Li Chendong looked at the two policemen standing at the entrance of the tavern. At this moment, Li Chenan happened to walk in front of the two policemen.

Next, he will be taken away.

Then... I have to tell my father about this, and my mother will become the mistress of the Li family, and those two women will also have to be expelled!

...

...

Li Chenan stood at the door.

Two police officers blocked his way.

One of the older police officers held a piece of official document in his hand, looked at Li Chenan, and asked, "Are you Li Chenan?"

Li Chen'an roughly knew what happened. He thought about it, thinking that the only way to make this matter safe is to invite Mrs. Hua Man Ting Hua.

"That's right, what do you two officials mean?"

Another young policeman snorted: "Could it be that you still don't know what you did?"

"Ah, may I ask what the official is referring to?"

"Let me ask you, did you go back to Li's Mansion in the evening on the third day of March?"

"Well, there is this."

"Let me ask you again, after you entered Li's residence, did you commit crimes in Li's residence?"

Li Chenan shook his head, "Master, I didn't commit any crimes, I just punished one wicked woman and five servants!"

The young policeman's face was serious, and he shouted: "If this is not called crime, what is it called?"

He stretched out his hand and pointed at Li Chen'an, and scolded: "In broad daylight, you broke into Li's mansion privately with the intention of making money and killing you. Someone reported you, and you will be tried by the Lord of the Criminal Chamber himself for every crime you have committed!"

"Come with us to the Yamen!"

Two officials came from this small shop, and the official reprimanded Li Chenan was still loud at the moment, so many neighbors in the alley surrounded them curiously, only then did they know that Li Chenan had actually gone to Li's mansion and caused trouble .

"Let me just say, this kid is not a good person at first sight!"

"I used to pretend to be honest, but ran to the gambling shop behind my back. I thought he got the money to run this shop. He must have gone to Li's mansion to grab the money!"

"... Li's Mansion is his home after all. With his courage, do you think he dares to go to Li's Mansion to cause trouble?"

"But the official is here. If anyone wants to arrest him by name, it must be someone from the Li family who denounced him. Besides, he was kicked out of the Li family by his father, so he is no longer from the Li family!"

"You can't be judged by appearances. The more inconspicuous people are, the more ruthless they are. I see, he even dared to rob Li's mansion. He might rob us one day!"

"..."

It was very noisy outside, and the sound spread into the inner courtyard.

Ning Chuchu, who hadn't left in the inner courtyard, frowned, "Kaiyang, go out and have a look."

"Subordinates obey!"

When Kai Yang came out, she was taken aback for a moment. She saw the young officer holding the simple knife on his waist with one hand and grabbing at Li Chen'an with the other.

Of course, Li Chen'an will not be caught without a fight, he must find reinforcements.

Rescue soldiers are diagonally opposite Qianmo Academy.

He believed that with Mr. Hua's influence, this matter could be resolved easily.

No matter how bad it is, Mr. Hua has to let Master Hua know that he is locked in a big prison. He may fish him out for the sake of that poem.

"etc!"

Li Chenan took a step back, turned his palms over, and grabbed the young policeman's hand instead.

"There are other clues to this matter!"

"I don't care what clues you have, just go to the yamen and talk about it!"

"Those two messengers wait a moment, I'm going to see someone."

The young policeman was impatient. He frowned and was about to speak, but the older policeman waved his hand, "Li Chen'an, who do you want to see?"

"The garden is full of flowers, my lord."

It was obvious that the two policemen knew Hua Manting's name, they were all taken aback for a moment, but the older policeman laughed:

"I said, Mrs. Hua lives in Yujing City, the capital, and it takes half a month to go to Yujing City. We can't wait for you for half a month, can we?"

"Besides... what is your identity, Li Chen'an?"

"What is the identity of Master Hua?"

"Only you, Li Chen'an, know Master Hua? If you knew him, why did you make a living in Erjinggou Alley? In a word, Master Hua, you can at least work as a concierge in a certain aristocratic family in Kyoto."

"If you say you're going to beg someone in Guangling City, I still believe it. Look at you, you won't even lie. Sixi, get someone!"

The young policeman named Sixi withdrew his hand and was about to take a step forward, but unexpectedly a voice came from behind:

"Wait a minute!"

The two arresters quickly turned their heads, and saw a heroic woman standing behind them.

The older policeman grinned: "This... female hero? You also want to help him get ahead?"

"Wait a minute, I'll come out as soon as I go in, so I don't need to spend half a month to go to Kyoto!"

Kaiyang turned and went in, Sixi looked at the elder policeman, "Head,"

"Hold on."

"...good!"

The neighbors watching the excitement outside don't know which one is playing.

Just now that idiot actually said that he knew Hua Manting, a great Confucian in Ningguo. Of course he was lying, because this idiot has never left Erjinggou Alley in the past three years, let alone the capital.

The two servants saw through his trick of fleeing at a glance, and thought that he was about to be punished, but unexpectedly, there was such a pretty girl in his backyard——

Li Chen'an, this is Jinwu Zangjiao?

That girl is pretty, but is he a golden house?

What a pity for that girl!

Hearing that her accent is from a foreign country, she probably didn't know Li Chenan's details and was deceived by him.

This guy, who never interacted with the neighbors before, turned out to be the pitiful appearance he pretended to be.

At this moment, Li Chendong, who was sitting on the second floor of the teahouse, poked his head out.

The distance was not far, and their voices were still loud. Li Chendong heard those conversations.

Li Chenan was surprised when he mentioned the name Hua Manting.

He knew that Hua Manting went to the cabin on the third floor of the painting boat that day, and he also knew that Hua Manting was really in Guangling City, but he never thought that Li Chenan would actually know Hua Manting.

He thought the same as those two police officers. He thought that they would take Li Chenan to the Yamen after they exposed Li Chen'an's lies, but unexpectedly, another woman came out.

Who is this?

Why didn't the two arresters do anything?

Could it be that some other moth was born?

After thinking about it, Li Chendong would never think that his brother, who had been stupid for seventeen years, would know a certain nobleman in Guangling City.

Li Chenan was also a little confused at the moment.

The woman followed the handsome young man in the morning just now, and they haven't left yet?

By the way, that handsome young man is the eunuch in the palace... It seems that his status as a eunuch is still very high, and this woman should be his bodyguard.

If this handsome father-in-law intervened, then he would really be able to save himself from danger, so he wouldn't have to owe Mr. Hua a huge favor.

It's just... Since he is the father-in-law, what does it mean to ask that word to go on that boat?

Just as they were guessing, Kai Yang came out.

"Come in, both of you."

Sixi looked at the older policeman, who nodded.

The two followed Kaiyang into the shop. Kaiyang did not bring the two into the backyard, but showed them a token.

Sixi was taken aback, he had never seen this token before, but the senior policeman next to him was shocked——

"Department of the Mirror... Your Excellency!"

The elder quickly bowed and saluted, "I don't know that Master Li Jingsi is here, but... just that Li Chen'an...?"

"Go back and tell your magistrates that Li Chen'an is the son of Li's eldest son, and he won't bother him to interrogate such trivial matters as punishing a few evil slaves."

"Young man, I obey." The elder policeman tugged at the hem of Sixi's clothes, "Let's go!"

When the two of them left the shop, the elder policeman looked at Li Chen'an with a smile on his face.

He cupped his hands and saluted, and said carelessly: "Mr. Li, misunderstanding, it's all misunderstanding! If someone bullies you in the future, tell me Chen Ergou, and Ergou is willing to stand up for you!"

"Farewell!"

"Everyone disperse," Chen Ergou yelled at the surrounding neighbors, "Mr. Li has been framed, and we have found out the truth. If you dare to gossip again, I will punish you for slander!"

The onlookers were stunned. What's going on?

Of course Li Chenan had guessed it, but he didn't expect that handsome father-in-law to have such great energy.

Li Chendong on the second floor of the teahouse was also stunned... Who is behind this fellow supporting him?

Could it be that Mr. Hua Manting is inside?

Sixi and Chen Ergou were walking on the street. At this moment, he looked back and asked, "Boss, what is Lijing Division?"

"A group of female devils!"

"I can't control the Heavenly King!"

"Do you remember that brand? There are three types of gold, silver and copper brands. When you see that brand in the future, no matter what kind it is, even if a huge murder happens, don't say anything!"

"...so smart?"

"Those who don't have eyes are all killed by the people from the Lijing Department. If you don't think you have a long life, you can try it!"
