The scenery on Gushan Mountain has always been the best in Dingyuan City. The dark green isolated mountain, the shade of the mountain, and the first-class waterfall make it even more elegant and interesting.
There is a hot spring in the mountain that does not freeze all year round. It is the place where the noble women in the south of the city are most willing to enjoy. When you are tired, take a dip in the mist-filled pool. The water will wash away your fat, and the scenery will be charming.
On this day, the wife of Master Zhou, who was ordered by Taicang in the former court, and his concubine, the concubine of Lord Ma, who had become an official, made an appointment to go to the mountains to play. After sweating a lot, he went to the hot spring to take a bath in the company of his servant.
Soon, the servants set up a curtain around the hot spring, and several personal maids went into the water to serve. When the water was almost soaked, the two young ladies continued to have fun. They placed a silver pot on the bank next to them and started playing pot throwing in the water.
When he was having fun, he stretched out a hand from behind the curtain and gently caught an arrow. A handsome man smelling of alcohol came in and said, "You two ladies, on such a good time, you might as well let Xiaosheng How about playing with the beauty."
Everyone in the pool was stunned for a moment, then screamed and hid in the water, not daring to show up. People outside the curtain heard the strange movement inside and rushed over one after another. However, they did not dare to lift the curtain directly and enter. They just shouted and shouted outside.
The man picked up a piece of clothing from the edge of the pool, put it under his nose and sniffed it gently, "It's a great blessing to be bathed in orchid soup, beautiful in gorgeous clothes, and so charming when you see a beautiful woman coming out of the bath. It's really a great blessing, sisters and brothers. It's coming." He said as if he was about to get into the water.
The two ladies were so horrified that their beautiful faces turned pale. They did not expect that such a prodigal would appear on Gushan Mountain, which was usually very safe. They no longer cared about shame and hurriedly called the guards outside.
Two strong men jumped in, holding steel knives and shouted angrily, "Where are the thieves from? They dare to spy on noble people. I don't want to live anymore." But they didn't dare to look into the pool.
The man was not panicked, "It's none of your business that my sisters and I met here. I tell you, I'm from the governor's house of Qin County."
The man was startled when he heard this, but he was not afraid. "Even the people in the county governor's office must know their integrity. Boy, don't think that we won't dare to take you with this tiger skin. When we break your legs, we will Go to the county magistrate's house to question the crime." As he spoke, he jumped up and attacked the man from left to right.
The man chuckled and threw himself directly into the pool. He touched the water with his toes and crossed the pool directly. The two men didn't dare to be so bold and chased around the pond.
Seeing that the two of them did not dare to cross the pond, the man became even more unscrupulous and shuttled back and forth over the pond. He accidentally stepped on the head of Mrs. Zhou who was peeking out to watch, and submerged herself into the water and took a big sip of the fragrant soup.
The two men were furious, and one of them threw out a rope, which chased the man like a snake in the air. Another strong man's belly bulged high, and he blew hard, spitting out circles from his mouth and putting them on the man.
The man screamed strangely and dodged again and again. Sure enough, in this place south of the city, there were hidden dragons and crouching tigers. Even two guards could use such strange moves. Accidentally, I was caught in a circle.
The two men were overjoyed and hurriedly chased after him, vowing to punish the prodigal. This person was quite capable. With a little effort, he managed to break free of the circle and fled towards the mountain in a hurry. But out of desperation, something accidentally dropped from my body.
The two men were in hot pursuit. Unexpectedly, the man was quite familiar with the mountain, and he disappeared after a few leaps.
In desperation, the two men had no choice but to go back and pick up what the man had lost on the ground, but it turned out to be a waist tag with the words Lin Ruoshi on it.
Although the person ran away, there is still this thing, so he is afraid that he will not be found in Dingyuan City. Frightened, several female family members put on their clothes tremblingly and hurried down the mountain under the protection of everyone.
Suffering this great humiliation for nothing, the two ladies made an appointment before parting. No matter what the identity of the person was, they must let their master come forward to arrest this person, otherwise they would not be able to raise their heads in Dingyuan City in the future.
On the second day, Governor Qin Zhili had just gotten up and was about to go to the government office for dinner when there was a noise outside the door. Commander Qin frowned, "Why is it so noisy?"
The steward next to him heard this and hurriedly went out to check. After a while, he hurried back with a frightened expression, "Master Qi, it's the two masters of Zhou Taicang and Ma County. Seek justice.”
"Fairness, what justice?" Sheriff Qin was a little confused. Both of them had retired from office. Although they were no longer in office, they were once in the officialdom and still had connections, so Sheriff Qin usually I have great respect for the two of them, and there is nothing rude about them. I don’t know why I came to ask questions today.
Quickly putting down the bowl in his hand, Commander Qin walked out and asked, "Do you know what's going on?" He reached out and grabbed a bowl of tea from the plate held by the maid on the side, ready to rinse his mouth.
The housekeeper looked a little strange, "It was said that when the two ladies were taking a bath, people from our county governor's house were teasing and peeping on Gushan yesterday."
"Pfft." Sheriff Qin couldn't help but spit out a mouthful of tea, "Ahem, what, peeking at someone taking a bath, who did it?"
Commander Qin couldn't help but get angry. What was going on? It was so shameless to spy on family members taking a bath. Especially among nobles, isn't this like peeing on someone's face in public?
"I don't know. I said I had to see the adults before I told him." The butler quickly replied.
There was a loud bang in the head of Commander Qin, and he immediately turned around and asked, "Where is Qin Guan?" The other party said that he had only informed him after meeting, that it was related to his family. After thinking about it, only the third son, Qin Guan, was unlearned and unskilled. Dandy, can do such a thing.
"I don't know. I didn't come back last night. I even left a door open for him. The concierge said that the young master didn't come home all night." The housekeeper said with fear. If the peeping incident is true, there is really no chance that it was the third young master of Qin who did it.
"This traitor." Sheriff Qin stamped his foot several times, "Sooner or later, the reputation of my Qin family will be defeated by him." When he crossed the threshold, he tripped and almost fell to the ground.
When they walked out of the door, they saw a dozen people gathered around the door. Zhou Taicang and Magistrate Ma were sitting in the sedan chair, secretly thinking about their luck.
"Two adults, why are you free to visit us today? I wonder what Qin did wrong to make you two so angry." As soon as County Sheriff Qin went out, his face was full of smiles and he held his hands to the two of them. .
Zhou Taicang and Sheriff Ma looked at each other, and Zhou Taicang said bitterly, "We are just useless people who have become officials. How dare we be rude to Sheriff Qin, and we don't even dare to offend the people in the house."
"Sir, what are you talking about? How dare you, a junior person who knows etiquette, to be disrespectful to these two elders. Please come to the room and talk about it. There are so many people talking here, and it is inevitable that some gossip will spread." Commander Qin stepped aside and gave way.
Zhou and Ma made eye contact, got up and got off the sedan, and walked into the courtyard with their heads held high.
When they arrived at the house, the host and guest took their seats. Commander Qin just opened his mouth and said: "You two adults, tell me what you have to say. If I know that I have done anything wrong with the etiquette, I will definitely apologize to you two."
Zhou Taicang took out a maroon waist badge and said, "Master Qin, yesterday when Governor Ma and my two wives were playing in the hot spring on the mountain, they were openly molested by someone from your family. I have pity on my wife." At this point, Zhou Taicang She covered her face with long sleeves and said, "My wife was naked at the time, and someone saw her clearly."
Magistrate Ma gritted his teeth and said, "It's the same with my family. The thief spoke arrogantly. When he was discovered, he even said he was from the magistrate's house. He didn't take us seriously at all. Mr. Qin, although we are already unemployed, we are loosing our hair." A phoenix is not as good as a chicken, but chickens also have tempers, so how can they be insulted at will? When this thief escaped, he left this badge behind, and asked Master Qin to see which madman he was."
Commander Qin took the badge and looked at it. Lin Ruoshi didn't recognize him, so he turned to hand it to the butler beside him, "Is there such a person in the house?"
The housekeeper took it and looked at it for a long time, "There is no such person in the house."
Qin Zhili just breathed a sigh of relief, and the housekeeper thought for a while and said, "But this person has been to the mansion several times. I heard that he is from the principal's mansion and is quite familiar with the Third Young Master."
"Ah, I have even been to the mansion. No wonder I call myself a member of the mansion. You are a bold and crazy man who dares to ruin my reputation by doing such a dirty thing." Qin Zhili was furious. As long as he is not a member of the mansion, it doesn't matter what his background is. He will be arrested. It will definitely not be spared if you live there.
He turned to Zhou and Ma and said, "Don't worry, my lords. As long as this person is in Bao'an County, I will definitely take him back and punish him severely to vent your anger."
"Come here, hurry up and arrest this person. Be careful not to leak any news. After all, this is indecent." Qin Zhili opened his mouth and told the officials.
After getting the command, the men hurried out of the south of the city and went straight to the captain's mansion. Since there is a brand, it's easy to tell, just follow the picture to find out.
When they arrived at the principal's residence, they met principal Yuwen first and conveyed the governor's instructions.
Captain Yuwen did not dare to neglect after hearing this, and immediately issued an order for Lin Ruoshi to come and confront him. But he looked around, but couldn't find him. I found people who knew him well and asked about him. No one knew his whereabouts. Sweat dripped from Captain Yuwen's forehead. If he ran away, Captain Yuwen would have to have a good drink.
The officials in the county magistrate's office were worried. After asking one by one, they finally learned that Lin Canjun seemed to have an appointment with Bi Canjun yesterday and went to Bi Hua's house for a drink.
After hearing this, the government officials, together with the people from Xiaowei's Mansion, immediately rushed to Bi Hua's home. When he arrived at the door of his house, he knocked on the door but no one answered. In a hurry, he kicked him away and rushed in.
When they arrived at the main room, the official's head almost exploded. In the main room, he saw his third son, with his chest and back exposed, embracing a young woman. The official recognized this woman as Bi Hua's daughter. This woman had already hooked up with Qin Guan, and the two often had secret trysts, which was known to the whole government except the governor of Qin County.
Looking at the other man lying on the ground, the captain's office identified him as Lin Ruoshi, with a singer lying next to him. Bi Hua was among them, also hugging a woman.
Several people were still asleep, not knowing how much they drank last night. What's even more shocking is that the three of them didn't shy away from each other when doing this.
Seeing that they could not wake up the three people, the government officials had no choice but to find blankets to wrap the three people, put them in the car and sent them back to the governor's house.
After arriving at the house, the three of them woke up under the supervision of the doctor in the house. Looking at the three angry adults, I couldn't help but feel shocked and wrapped myself in a blanket.
"Father." Qin Guan looked horrified. As soon as he opened his mouth, Qin Zhili interrupted him, "Shut up, I don't have a rebellious son like you."
Lin Ruoshi was the first to calm down, looked around, and thought carefully about yesterday's events.
Yesterday, he and Bi Hua were drinking in the east of the city. They each called a singer to apologize, but for some reason they suddenly lost consciousness. Thinking of this, Lin Ruoshi didn't know that he was being manipulated, but he didn't know why the third son of Qin was also here.
"Sir, we have been framed." Lin Ruoshi said quickly.
"Shut up, this is not a place for an intermediary like you to talk. Take it down." Qin Zhili said sadly, turning to Zhou Taicang and Ma Junshou, "If it is convenient, please two adults identify it. Is this the thief?"
The two adults nodded, and they happened to be accompanied by two strong men who had arrested the thief yesterday. They identified Lin Ruoshi on the spot as the prodigal.
Lin Ruoshi was taken to prison, his Qi orifices were sealed, and he could no longer use any means.
As for Bi Hua, after the two adults left, the officials told Qin Zhili about the affair between his daughter and the third son of Qin. Qin Zhili glanced at Bi Hua with disdain and said, "You are a despicable person who sells his daughter for glory. Do you think he still wants to have a son and daughter with Qin? It's hateful."
Bi Hua repeatedly begged for mercy, but Qin County Shouli ignored him and sent him to jail with a wave of his hand.
