Chapter 142: More Refunds and Less Compensation

Which ancient man said this damn thing?

In addition to the little fat man, many big guys were so angry that Yue Qianqiu was so angry that after announcing the intermission, Yue Qianqiu actually yawned there: "Besides, rest is for a better job, your Highness, are you right?"

Although the fat man didn't expect that Yue Qianqiu would have a problem as soon as he gave up, he thought that even the chief supervisor of Feng Guojiu's family had not been brought in. It was really useless to continue the trial now, so he could only snort as agreeing.

As a result, he saw Yue Qianqiu lying on the case without saying a word, and he was really going to meet Duke Zhou like this!

Old Master Yue knew very well that although his grandson could sleep anywhere, he was definitely trying to tease people on purpose. However, when he saw many people looking at him with a bad expression, he yawned lazily, then curled up on the magistrate chair, and dozed on his own.

For a moment, I don’t know how many people hate this pair of grandparents and grandsons for their laziness.

Yan Xu was not lazy, but he ignored the expectant gazes that he wanted to stand up and teach his apprentice a lesson. Instead, he instructed a servant to get two velvet blankets and personally covered Yue Qianqiu with one, but threw one for the little fat man, regardless of whether the little fat man wanted to sleep. Immediately afterwards, he ordered someone to get paper and pen and supervise Ouyang Tieshu's portrait himself.

Everyone knows that the portraits drawn by Ouyang Tieshu are likely to be the next important key. Now, the officials who were originally unhappy immediately raised their spirits and turned their attention to this matter. The anxious people came over to take a look, while those who didn't care on the surface were paying attention to the progress from time to time, while more people were whispering in a low voice.

But Feng Guojiu, who was most anxious and concerned about this matter, was watched by two officers. He saw that Ouyang Tieshu was drawing very fast, but in just a quarter of an hour, he had already drawn a vivid portrait. He wanted to get closer but couldn't get closer, so he had to change his gentle attitude and look at the fat man with a begging gaze.

But the fat man couldn't even look at Mr. Feng. Although he kept twisting and twisting in his seat, he looked impatient and unable to sit still, but he didn't move his butt down to see what was going on.

Seeing this scene, Feng Guojiu, who had a bruised nose and swollen face, completely gave up his hope for the fat man and had to think about a plan to escape. He shook his sleeves angrily and said, "Everyone believes in Ouyang Tieshu's words, and even beat me up for this, and said why I ruined the reputation of Your Highness of the King of England. I can't argue, so I say goodbye!"

"Mr. Feng Guojiu can't leave." With this ambiguous voice, Yue Qianqiu, who had just lay down and took a nap for a while, sat up straight, then stretched, and then said seriously, "Your supervisor hasn't arrived yet, how can you leave?"

Feng Guojiu felt an unknown fire rushing into his mind and suddenly raised his voice: "Yue Qianqiu, are you treating me as a prisoner?"

"I don't." Yue Qianqiu clapped the case with innocent face, "You are not a prisoner, but a witness. But if a witness leaves his obligation to testify and runs away by himself, he will not be regarded as a guilty prisoner."

Mr. Feng was almost fainted and was so angry that he stood up: "Who did you say you are guilty!"

"Mr. Feng Guoqiu calms down. Being angry is the most likely to hurt his body. I didn't say it was you, right?" Yue Qianqiu was talking about Hu Chai teasing Mr. Feng when he suddenly saw Su Shiqi stepping in outside. He immediately threw his opponent, Feng Guoqi, aside.

Before he could ask questions, Su Shiqi said bluntly: "I happened to meet the head of Feng Guojiu's family on the way to deliver things, so I brought the person directly!"

As soon as these words came out, Feng Guojiu, who had originally wanted to delay time, was so angry that he was filled with smoke. Most of the other officials who were listening were secretly lamenting that the matter was such a coincidence. But before Yue Qianqiu could speak, Ouyang Tieshu, who had just been lying on the ground to paint, threw down his pen, grabbed the paper and waved it: "I'm done drawing, I'm done!"

Li Yiming jumped out of the chair and rushed over at the fastest speed, and actually grabbed the portrait before Yan Xu on the side. However, when he took the first look, his eyes suddenly changed.

He was idle by nature and had been to every corner of the palace. As long as the concubines and masters of any palace were dissatisfied with him, he would turn around and bully the maids and eunuchs. No one knew that he had always had a very good memory and could recognize the humble servants who had forgotten other noble people.

At this moment, he recognized at a glance that it was not the person from Feng Guifei Baofu Palace, but an eunuch in the Houyuan who was responsible for raising cranes and other birds. He once flattered him when he went to the garden with Feng Guifei, and he also had to be rewarded by Feng Guifei. Although he seemed to have a very long relationship, he vaguely remembered that he had heard other concubines mention a few words, saying that Feng Guifei often bribed people to speak nice things in front of the emperor.

Although the fat man tried his best to hide his expression, the old foxes who had been ups and downs in the officialdom for many years could see at a glance that His Highness Ying recognized the person in the portrait. Yue Qianqiu also noticed it, but he spoke as if nothing had happened: "Master, please take the portrait out and let the general manager of Feng Guojiu's family recognize it."

Yan Xu was just taken first by the fat man and planned to snatch the portrait back, but because of the obviously strange look of the fat man, he stopped for the time being. But since Yue Qianqiu said that, he certainly would not continue to sympathize with the kid and reached out to snatch the thing. Seeing that the fat man did not resist at all, he couldn't help but glance at people again, and then he strode out of court.

A moment later, when he came back, a middle-aged man with a confused face and clearly didn't know what was going on here.

Yan Xu glanced at Feng Guojiu and then said in a deep voice: "The chief supervisor of Feng Guojiu's family just said that the people in this portrait do come and go to Feng's family often..."

"You're talking nonsense!" Feng Guojiu suddenly became anxious and cursed at his supervisor, "Feng Gui, wake me up. You can eat food, and you can't talk nonsense..."

"Shut up!" This time, the one who stopped Feng Guojiu was the little fat man. "Feng Gui, I will support you. To be honest, who is the person in this portrait?"

Feng Gui was yelled by his master and Li Yiming, and he was immediately out of control and could not speak. At this time, he saw a child sitting with his chin on his back, thrusting his eyes at him.

"Mr. Feng, since you often come to Feng's family, if you don't say it, the rest of the Feng family may not know." Yue Qianqiu looked at Feng Gui with a smile, then gently tapped the table with his hand, "And, King Ying is very angry, the consequences are very serious. Don't you think?"

Feng Gui saw Li Yiming's eyes wide open, and immediately thought that the fat man had always been tyrannical and wanted to be remembered by others. Even if he wanted to protect him, he might not be able to protect him. In contrast, Feng Guojiu was just a mediocre person who relied on his sister and nephew to make a living. He made a choice in an instant and immediately knelt down.

"Your Highness, the people in the portrait used to go in and out of Feng's Mansion. It was Gao Feng'er, the eunuch who was responsible for managing cranes and other birds in the palace. Every time he came, his uncle would personally receive him..."

Seeing the many eyes focused on him in an instant, Feng Guojiu looked pale and staggered back a few steps. Then he defended with a hoarse voice: "Then...so what? My sister is the concubine, and it is very common for the eunuchs in the palace to come and go often. It is not the high-frequency child fake I instructed to pass on the order to recruit Ouyang Tieshu..."

"No one said that it was the high frequency commander you ordered by Mr. Feng."

Yue Qianqiu interrupted Feng Guojiu's defense, then he retaken a grove and said seriously: "Okay, what Ouyang Tieshu said has confirmed that it exists, that is, Gao Fenger, the eunuch in the palace. In this way, Ouyang Tieshu, you are just a man who was ordered to run errands and cannot be sentenced to death. If you come here truthfully, what did Gao Fenger ask you to do?"

Ouyang Tieshu didn't expect that a portrait would really make him catch a life-saving straw. Yue Qianqiu said that he was punished by death, and he couldn't help but feel relieved. He was about to confess, but Liu Si on the side suddenly said weakly: "My master, he can even be punished by death. If the young one is blinded by him, can he also be relieved of being deceived?"

"You?" Yue Qianqiu almost forgot about Liu Si. When he saw people timid, he suddenly supported the table and spat directly at the person, "In order to climb high, you not only framed the old master, but also bullied a group of helpless orphans. How could there be such shameless scum like you in the world? Dear lords, should this person be more serious or lesser?"

Seeing that many old people were not saying a word, but the contemptuous eyes had already revealed their attitude, Yue Qianqiu slapped the arson and said: "Come on, pull this guy down and beat forty first! Go back to Dali Cheng to see how to judge according to the law. If you fight less, you deserve it!"

Yue Qianqiu just said he wanted to fight, but Old Master Yue couldn't help but frown. When he heard the latter sentence, he couldn't help laughing. The Prime Minister Zhao Qingya next to him even laughed: "The more you don't give up, the less you make up, Brother Yue's grandson is doing a good deal!"

Liu Si was so shocked that he was scattered. Although he tried his best to beg for mercy, even ordinary servants looked down on him like his slave who was carrying his master after hearing Yue Qianqiu's words. For a moment, he was grabbed with his hands and feet and dragged out of the lobby directly. In a moment, the screams of howling ghosts and wolves floated in.

Ouyang Tieshu instinctively thought that this was killing chickens for monkeys. After escaping the disaster, he immediately dispelled his thoughts of writing a literary man. Without waiting for Yue Qianqiu to urge him, he hurriedly said, "Sir Yue, Your Highness, King Ying, the Gaofener instructed me to make friends with the juren who failed the exam, provide houses for them to live in, and collect and publish books for them..."

Whenever Feng Guojiu heard Ouyang Tieshu say, his face turned pale. When the person finally confessed that he received more than 5,000 guan of money from Gaofener, he couldn't even stand and sat directly on the ground. Li Yiming's face was as dark as the bottom of a pot.

Just when everyone felt that the right and wrong of this case was already very obvious, they only heard the sound of pounding drums from outside. Immediately afterwards, Yue Qianqiu heard a loud voice.

"Bei Yan is envoy Renlu, who first sued Dongtai Opera Garden to detain the famous monk Xi Chi Shengping of Beiyan, and exploited people to write opera for three years! Second, he sued Wude Department to seal Dongtai Opera Garden, but detained the monk Shengping and did not return it to me Beiyan! The opera written by Xi Chi is also the favorite of His Majesty the emperor of our dynasty. He suddenly disappeared when he traveled to the south three years ago. Unexpectedly, he ended up like this!"

Yue Qianqiu almost slipped down from the Taishi chair.

Beiyan is in charge of Renlu? Isn’t this the boss of the sir-like vest of Yue Xiaosi? Why are people running here to get involved?
