Happy Little Scholar

Chapter 289: Hard to guess what’s going on

"During this period, there are people patrolling outside day and night. The security in the city is very good and there are no major cases." Tian Lai Xiao "said" Liu Yishou was reporting to Li Yi at a tea stall somewhere on the street. "A floating corpse appeared in the river outside Zhangjiacun. The identity has not been identified yet. There have been no missing persons in our county recently. We have sent people to investigate village by village..."

At another table a few steps away, three men were also talking and laughing loudly.

"Have you seen the Oiran Competition these days? Miss Qiaoqiao and Miss Yiyi are competing fiercely. I'm afraid one of them will be the Oiran this year."

"Actually, there is nothing exciting about this competition. Last year's top ten courtesans will still occupy more than half of the seats this year. What's more, no matter who is selected, we can only take a look and cannot touch..."

"Hehe, this is not necessarily the case. As long as there is talent and wealth, as long as there is any one, even the oiran, there may not be a chance to have sex... Moreover, this year's oiran cannot be touched, and the old ones should be touched. I don't know why. , Qunyu Academy has been recommending Chen Miaomiao this year, and Fengqi Tower has even recommended a new person. You must know that Zeng Zuimo and Gu Xiaowan were both candidates for the top ten oirans last year. I am afraid there is no hope of being on the list this year. I don’t know if they have ever been What does the oiran taste like?"

As the three of them talked, they showed smiles that all men knew. Then they didn't know what they were talking about. After their smiles turned lewd, their voices also became quieter.

"My lord, my lord..." Liu Yishou said a lot, but found that the county captain had no reaction. When he looked up, he found that his face had no expression, his eyes were wandering, and he was obviously absent-minded. He stretched out his hand to him His eyes swayed.

"Well..., what's wrong?" Li Yi came back to his senses, looked at him with confusion gone, and asked.

Liu Yishou sighed secretly in his heart. The county captain had something on his mind, so what he just said was in vain.

As a subordinate, he wanted to share Shangguan's worries, so he changed the subject and said: "There hasn't been much happening in the county government recently, but with the Oiran Competition going on, the city will become more and more lively at night. I think we should send twice as many people. manpower.”

"Well, I'll do as you say. Let the others be drawn from the Minzhuang." Li Yi clapped his hands, looked at the three people who were having a heated discussion, and turned and walked towards the street.

"Sir, be careful!"

Just as he walked onto the street, Liu Yishou suddenly shouted and grabbed Li Yi's arm. Li Yi staggered because of him. Liu Yishou had already raised his hand, pointed his knife forward, and said sternly: "Who is coming?" , dismount. No horses are allowed in the city. Violators will be punished by a thirty-year rod!"

There was a sound of a horse neighing from the front, and the young knight on the horse pulled the reins. The horse's front hooves raised, splashing a puff of smoke, and stopped suddenly.

Li Yi frowned slightly. There were a lot of people in Fucheng, and horses were never allowed to ride fast. What this person did just now could have been taken back and slapped with thirty sticks.

If he hadn't been thinking about something just now, he wouldn't have been so close and not noticed.

"You are the catcher here, just in time, take me to the Anxi County Yamen immediately!" The knight on the horse didn't seem to care what Liu Yishou just said. When he saw his clothes, he immediately raised his head and said with an arrogant expression.

"If you don't get off your horse, just lie down and go to the Anxi County Yamen!" Li Yi looked at him and said coldly.

Even Li Xuan doesn't dare to ride wildly on the streets. This guy who doesn't know where he comes from will not be more powerful than Li Xuan in Qing'an Mansion, right?

"Who are you!" Seeing that a weak scholar dared to threaten him, a flash of anger flashed across the knight's face, he raised the whip in his hand and whipped it straight at Li Yi.

"Be bold!"

Liu Yishou shouted angrily and slashed at the horsewhip. This guy actually dared to attack the county captain. He is the emperor of the current emperor and can be regarded as an official of the court. Even if he hacks this guy to death, he will not be held responsible.

The knight struck quickly, but Liu Yishou was still a beat behind. However, just when the whip was about to hit Li Yi, Li Yi snorted coldly, stretched out his right hand, grabbed the whip, and yanked it hard. The knight was dragged off his horse.

Before he could get up from the ground, Li Yi kicked him in the waist. The knight struggled for a moment, then felt that his whole body was exhausted and he couldn't even speak.

At this time, he no longer had the arrogance he had just now, and his face was full of horror.

"There is a horse in the city with the intention of murdering the imperial official. Take it back to the county government with a staff of eighty, and then take it into custody." Li Yi said lightly, and two policemen who ran from a distance immediately carried the knight away. stand up.

He just used a secret technique that Ruyi taught him. Within half an hour, he could not use any strength on this embroidered pillow.

Although today's Li Yi is not a master, he has been trained by two top masters in his family. It is easy to deal with such arrogance.

"Yes!" Liu Yi clasped his fists in response. He was very shocked that the county captain had such skills. After Li Yi left, the look in the knight's eyes immediately became fierce.

"Take him back!"

I just stretched my muscles a little on the street. It was a small interlude. The power of Mingzhu's head catcher is still there. Even if the prefect's son makes a mistake, the Anxi County police will catch him no matter what his background is. When he was strong enough to enter the county government, he only acted in accordance with the law.

Even if the other party really has a great background, he would not dare to look for trouble afterwards, otherwise, it will only cause greater trouble.

Of course, the prefect has no son, so Liu Yishou and the others will not have any psychological pressure to beat that guy with a stick.

When I got home, I walked into the yard and saw Ruyi throwing a stack of paper into the stove one by one.

Seeing Li Yi coming in, she smiled and said, "I received several invitations this morning. I guess my husband won't go, so I just burn them together."

Li Yi nodded, and when he walked to the door of the room, he seemed to think of something, and his footsteps paused slightly, and turned back and asked, "Whose invitations were received this morning?"

Liu Ruyi was stunned for a moment, thought about it and said, "Miss Qiaoqiao from Yichun Tower sent another one, and Miss Liu Yiyi sent two, and five hundred taels of silver, but I returned them. In addition, Gu Xiaowan from Fengqi Tower and Qun Yuyuan..."

Li Yi's eyes lit up slightly.

"Miss Chen Miaomiao from Qun Yuyuan invites you to a banquet tonight." Liu Ruyi thought he had changed his mind, and apologized, "I didn't know what you were going to do, so I shouldn't have done it so early..."

"It's okay, just burn it." Li Yi smiled, a hint of disappointment appeared in his eyes, and walked into the room.

"Women's minds are really hard to guess..." After pacing back and forth in the room for a few times, he muttered a few words, sighed, walked to the desk, and began to grind ink.

"Son-in-law, let me do it!"

Xiao Huan stood at the door and looked inside, then trotted over and took the ink stick from Li Yi.

These days, Yang Liuqing has almost finished all the housework. If she sees it, she will definitely fight with her for this.

I like watching son-in-law writing and painting the most. Whether it was before or after, this position can only be mine...

The little maid thought to herself.
