"I've met Magistrate Lin!
"
Outside the Xuzhou magistrate's office, Jia Qi hugged his fists and said hello to Lin Zongsheng.
"It is said that fame is worse than meeting. Lin has heard about the Marquis for a long time. They all say that the Marquis is a rare young hero. Now that he sees the golden face, he knows that what he said is true!
"
Lin Zongsheng was full of rainbow farts when he first came up. He was so profound that he could be worn by thousands of people, but flattery could never be worn.
If Jia Qi hadn't observed what happened in the backyard of the prefect's Yamen through his soul before, he might have already preconceived the idea that the person in front of him was a good person.
Just like Daiyu now, when she heard the other party praising Jia Cui, although she didn't say anything, those two curved eyebrows had unknowingly curved up. Although it was not a compliment to herself, it was obvious that the little girl The mood is very good.
Don’t reach out to hit the smiling person.
The other party acted like this as soon as he came up. Jia Qi couldn't say anything. He waved his hand and said, "It's just a bit of a false reputation!"
Lin Zongsheng on the side heard Jia Qi's reply, his smile did not change, and he continued to smile and said: "Master Hou is being humble. Looking at our Dakang Dynasty, no one of Marquis's age has been able to be named a marquis or become a prime minister. This is your first job. I don’t know how many people are envious of you!
"
Although he said this, Lin Zongsheng felt guilty in his heart. Jia Qi's behavior was somewhat different from what he heard.
Doesn’t it mean that the young man in front of me is an arrogant and domineering master? The smoke from Jinling has not yet dissipated.
It has been less than half a month since the heavy snow dragon rode down the south of the Yangtze River. They rode on the long street in Jinling, staining the long street with blood and staining the river. They single-handedly shocked the entire south of the Yangtze River and caused many rebellious forces to die out.
Although the big guys didn't say anything, they secretly labeled this extremely cruel Marquis as a "human killer".
But the feeling that Jia Qi gave him now was not like the one in the legend. He was more like a handsome young man with a scholarly air, more like a scholar.
And from the two brief sentences the other party just said, he also felt that Jia Qi was not the kind of superficial person who liked to flatter and flatter people.
Then he looked at Lin Daiyu next to Jia Qi. At this time, Lin Daiyu had been blinded by Jia Qi. Most people could not see through Daiyu's true face. From the outside, she was a very ordinary girl.
To say he is a passerby is an understatement.
But Jia Qi has a distinguished status, so how can the woman beside him be an ordinary person?
Looking at Lin Daiyu, Lin Zongsheng couldn't help but ask: "Who is this girl?"
Regarding Daiyu's identity, Jia Qi originally did not want to hide it, but for the sake of Daiyu's maiden name, it was difficult to directly say her identity.
Yang Zongren and the others did not ask before, perhaps because they thought of this. After all, in this era, it is very inappropriate for a girl to show up in public.
When Lin Zongsheng asked, Jia Qi thought for a while and replied: "She is one of my sisters, and she happens to have something to do!
"
Lin Zongsheng was slightly startled when he heard this. Because Jia Qi was talking about Mo Lake, he immediately realized that his question was a bit abrupt.
Regardless of who this girl is and what her identity is, Jia Qi went out with only the two of them this time. Obviously, the relationship between this girl and Jia Qi should be excellent.
If this girl is Jia Qi's maid, do I really dare to treat her as a maid? If this girl is a young lady, or a princess of the royal family, and she is alone with Jia Qi, living alone in the melon fields and plum trees, it will not be good for her reputation.
So this question, if Jia Qi was not the kind of informal person, would be really hard to answer. When he thought of this, Lin Zongsheng quickly changed the subject.
"If the Marquis needs me for anything, please speak up and I will never refuse!
"
Hearing this, Jia Chu did not refuse and nodded. This time, Lin Zongsheng did not hesitate again or ask Jia Chu what he did in Jiangnan?
Instead, he only said that he would help!
Never ask about things you shouldn't know. This is what a smart person should know!
"By the way, Lin wants to thank the Marquis for his life! I occasionally contracted a strange disease and needed the blood of the white tiger to prepare a medicine. I have thought of many ways to use this medicine, but But there is still no harvest. Some time ago, I heard that there were traces of white tigers in Huxiang Mountain, so I sent my subordinates to investigate. I didn’t expect that I would finally gain something today, and the disease of Jian Nei will finally see the light of day!"
After saying that, Lin Zongsheng looked at the little white tiger held by Daiyu, his eyes still showing a kind of fiery look.
Seeing the other party's expression, Jia Qi suddenly felt something in his heart.
Xu had preconceptions, and Jia Qi had been observing him since he had just met him.
If he and his wife were as loving as the outside world said, then when the other party came out, his eyes would not be directly locked on him, but first he would look at the little white tiger who could make medicine.
But the other party did not, and did not even confirm whether the little beast in Daiyu's arms was the strange beast that could be used as a medicine guide for his wife.
Even after a round of things, he ranked this thing last.
If the relationship between the other party and his wife is not like that, then it would be understandable if we look at the other party's behavior.
And the other party's expression is not right. The other party's current expression does not look like the joy of being told that one day his wife's disease can be cured, but more of a feeling of urgency, eagerness, and possessiveness.
Of course, the difference between these two expressions is very subtle, and ordinary people may not be able to distinguish it at all, but it has not escaped Jia Qi's eyes.
Although Jia Qi has not fully understood the matter of Lin Zongsheng's wife, he can be sure that there must be something fishy about this matter based on Lin Zongsheng's reaction.
The little white tiger seemed to have noticed something was wrong, and began to stir in Daiyu's arms, watching Lin Zongsheng whimper from time to time.
Of course, this was not its original intention, but now that its size is too small, those few demonstrations of filial piety have become nothing more than whimpering without any power in everyone's ears.
Jia Qi on the side was a little surprised when he saw this situation. It is said that the instinct of animals is sometimes sharper than that of humans, just like a woman's sixth sense. Sometimes it is so sensitive that there is no reason for it. Now it seems that it is indeed the case. There is some truth to this.
"Sir, should we go in first and talk~"
Yang Zongren on the side coughed twice, came to Lin Zongsheng and said.
Lin Zongsheng smiled awkwardly when he heard Yang Zongren's reminder.
"I'm just happy to see Mr. Hou today. It's Lin's fault. Mr. Hou, please!"
"
"please!"
In the backyard of Xuzhou Magistrate's Yamen, Mi Maoyuan was impatient to wait. Just when he was about to stand up and walk around, he suddenly saw his servant running in in a panic.
"Son~"
Mi Maoyuan couldn't help but sit down again when he saw the boy in a panic.
"What's wrong??"
"Sir, the person who came just now..."
Mi Maoyuan raised his eyebrows and said in a somewhat unhappy tone: "Why, that person doesn't want to hand over that little beast?"
The boy stood aside and stammered: "No... no!"
Mi Maoyuan saw that the boy looked wrong and said coldly: "Is it Lin Zongsheng who doesn't want to speak?? This loser can't even do such a small thing!"
"
When the boy heard this, he shook his head violently, and then he gasped twice.
"no!
"
Mi Maoyuan's face darkened, "It's not this, it's not that, what's going on?"
"No, the person coming is the champion—Jia Qi!
"
Mi Maoyuan was stunned when he heard what the boy said! My brain is buzzing.
As for the man who slaughtered Jinling with blood, they are not afraid of the man from Jiangnan.
Then not
The Zhen family in this lifetime did not even have a wave of waves in the hands of this person. I heard that by the Jinling River, you can still hear the wails of innocent souls at night.
When he thought of what he had said before, he suddenly shuddered in his heart.
If that person knew what he said, the result would be...
At this time, he suddenly remembered what his elder brother had said to him before.
"Misfortune comes from the mouth. If you talk too much, you will lose it. One life is like the grass and trees. The four seasons are reincarnated. Six sentences are not spoken."
Not wanting to make his words come true today, Mi Maoyuan slapped himself hard.
Then Mi Maoyuan's expression changed, and then he secretly said "No". He was here before, but Lin Zongsheng didn't go out to greet him. If the champion asked later and Lin Zongsheng accidentally missed something, he would definitely suffer.
With his uncle's methods, this kind of thing is not a piece of cake.
"Sir, where are you going?"
After hearing what the boy said, Mi Maoyuan said fiercely: "Go and apologize!
"
As soon as he walked to the door, he paused. Suddenly he remembered something. Lin Zongsheng said before that he didn't know who was coming!
If he didn't know, how could he know that he was an honored guest? ? He has come to his senses now.
Lin Zongsheng must have known who the visitor was and the identity of Jia Qi, otherwise he would never have said that he was a noble person.
And he deliberately didn't go out to greet him, but sat here with himself. At that time, he was already plotting against himself.
At this time, I am afraid that the other party has already put on small shoes for himself on Jia Qi's side.
"asshole!
"
Mi Maoyuan narrowed his eyes and slammed his fist on the door frame. Although he looked down on Lin Zongsheng, he still knew the tricks of this all-around master Lin.
Even if I get over it, I'm afraid it won't help.
But he didn't know that Jia Qi had known about what happened here for a long time, and the development of the matter itself was completely out of his prediction.
In the front hall, after Lin Zongsheng and Jia Chu sat down, Jia Chu did not ask why Lin Zongsheng did not come to greet them.
He didn't seem to take this matter to heart at all.
Instead, go straight to the point.
"Master Lin, can you recommend those two strange people?"
…
