The first legitimate son of the Tang Dynasty

Chapter 216 The matter is not over yet

"Brother, are you okay!"

Meng Ziqian left, and Li Zhi immediately came to Li An's side. Li An waved back and faced Li Zhi. Cheng Yaojin bowed: "Child slave, foster father, and brothers, if you don't come today, , Li An may have to confess here."

"He dares...!" Cheng Chumo scolded: "If he dares to touch you, Duke Lu's Mansion will definitely fight him to the death."

"Hey!" Cheng Chubi said with a smile: "Brother, a man who is about to die is still afraid that you will fight him until death?"

Cheng Yaojin paused and said: "An'er, this Meng Ziqian is a troublesome guy. It's not that our Cheng family can't fight him, but because he is a mad dog that is going to die. No one in this Chang'an City family wants to have anything to do with such a mad dog. What a relationship.

Today you and I will go back to Duke Lu's Mansion temporarily, and don't let this mad dog come back to bite you. "

"Brother, I think so too. It would be better to go to Duke Lu's Mansion first." Li Zhi said slightly.

Seeing everyone saying this, Li An felt for the first time that he had offended someone bad. Fortunately, Li An listened to the advice. Then Li An called the madam of Shengle Building over and asked him directly. Ransom the lives of the Liu sisters.

The madam was still hesitating and reluctant. One moment he said that he relied on Liu Zhizhi, and the next moment he said that he regarded the Liu sisters as his real daughters. Cheng Chumo really couldn't stand listening anymore. Chang Shan pointed his finger and cursed: " If you keep talking, you won't get any money."

The madam was speechless, but the madam also knew how arrogant the Cheng family was, so sometimes, evil people must be punished by evil people, and you can't be too polite to some people. If you are too polite, he will directly regard it as a blessing and crawl along.

After being yelled at by Cheng Chumo, the madam was scared, but he still opened his mouth and asked for [-] guan. It was [-] guan for each of the Liu sisters. Li An looked at the old bustard who was slaughtering him like a fat pig, and it was exposed. A sinister expression.

This Liu knows ten thousand guan, you can say that the other party is the former oiran of Shenglelou, he is worth the price, but this Liu Xiaoxiao is not famous at all, and you are asking for ten thousand guan, this is not taking yourself as a fool .

Li An laughed angrily, then he turned back to look at the old bustard and said: "You are really good to your daughters. Each of you wants ten thousand gu from me. Okay, okay, then you should be prepared and don't do it in the future." Now that the business is done, I will ask people from the Ministry of Punishment to check all the girls in your flower house tomorrow. If any of them are trafficked, then you can wait to go to the jail of the Ministry of Punishment and sit in jail."

Cheng Chuliang smiled slightly: "Tang law stipulates that those who plunder and sell people into slavery will be hanged for the first offender and exiled for 3000 miles for the accomplices. In the buyer's market, if the buyer "purchases" the trafficked people, they will also be punished, but the penalty will be reduced by one level.

Based on this calculation, you will have to spend at least 20 years in prison! "

"Ah!" The old madam was at a loss for a moment and could only look at Liu Zhizhi and said: "My daughter, my mother is really reluctant to let you go. She just offered a high price just to keep you, but it seems that she can't keep you now. Then you Just follow Mr. Li An, I just need the money."

The madam really thought fast enough and came up with the rhetoric in one go. He also called it reluctant to part with it. Li An smiled faintly and asked Liu Fangzi to give the old madam a lot of money, and then asked someone to give it to him. Liu Xiaoxiao also carried it out.

A group of people went directly out of Shengle Building to Huaidefang, and Li Zhi left first because he wanted to go back to hand in the prince's military amulet. However, Li Zhi also said that he would go back to Lu Guogong's mansion tomorrow to find Li An.

Li An followed Cheng Yaojin and others back to Lu Guogong's mansion. Cui Xian was already waiting anxiously at the door of the house. Seeing that Li An was safe and sound, she happily took Li An into the mansion.

Afterwards, the residence was arranged for Li An and the Liu family sisters. After everything was arranged, Cheng Yaojin asked the kitchen to arrange a meal. Cheng Yaojin, Cheng Chumo, Cheng Chuliang, Cheng Chubi, and Cui Xian sat at the table together. , while eating and drinking, they talked about Meng Ziqian of the Meng family.Cheng Chubi poured a glass of wine for everyone at the table, and Cheng Chuliang took the lead to ask Li An: "Brother An, why did you meet up with a mad dog like Meng Ziqian? This is a bit different from your previous behavior."

"Hey!" Li An also sighed and said: "Second brother, you don't know, our Lijia Village was originally holding a collective wedding today. I was eating and drinking happily, and this Ning'er came to me. He started by treating Liu Zhizhi’s sister Liu Xiaoxiao.

This Liu Xiaoxiao has a hidden illness. "

"Ah!" Everyone present knew about the hidden disease, so they were very surprised. Cheng Yaojin asked, "Isn't he dead?"

Li An took a bite of the dish and said: "Liu Xiaoxiao is doomed by traditional Chinese medicine, but I am different. I can cure even hidden diseases."

"Oh!" Cheng Chumo raised his glass and said happily: "My Brother An is really good. If I get sick from now on, I will look for you and my children..."

Li An smiled slightly: "That's natural, but we are our own family, so I tell everyone that I am not good at medicine, but that my medicine is good. It's like the Queen's asthma, which cannot be cured by the imperial doctor, but But I can control it, not because of my high medical skills, but because the medicine I brought can suppress the Queen's asthma.

The same goes for hidden diseases. As long as I know what the disease is, they can be cured with medicine. "

"Ah!" Everyone nodded one after another, and followed Cheng Yaojin to ask: "Then how did you confront Meng Ziqian."

"Father, I was also passive. When I went to treat Liu Xiaoxiao, I realized that Liu Xiaoxiao's hidden disease was infected by Meng Ziqian. Meng Ziqian wanted to get involved with Liu Zhizhi, but Liu Zhizhi refused. Later, he found King Blessing of Hejian, and Meng Ziqian didn't dare to move Liu Zhizhi, so he robbed Liu Xiaoxiao and ruined it for three days and three nights.

Later, the Liu sisters wanted to commit themselves to me, but I refused them all. However, because Liu Zhizhi was my auctioneer, I still thought that it was too much to help Liu Zhizhi once. More importantly, Meng Ziqian was too much. "

After knowing the cause and effect, the Cheng family members all supported Li An's actions.

Cheng Chubi was the first to say: "That Meng Ziqian is just like a mad dog, harming people everywhere. I don't know how many girls in Chang'an City have been harmed by that mad dog."

"Yes, the day before yesterday, I told Fu Rou that this guy killed a girl in his carriage on the street in Huaidefang. Isn't it true that he has a hidden disease and is harming our Tang Dynasty?" Cheng Chumo slammed the table violently. .

"Hiss!" Cheng Yaojin's eyes lit up at this time and he smiled and said: "Meng Ziqian has a hidden disease, that would be interesting. I think there will be a bloody storm in the court tomorrow. I don't know what decision your majesty will make, but If I tell you that Meng Ziqian has a hidden illness, I believe His Majesty will be more sympathetic to us."

"Is the matter not over yet?" Li An looked at Cheng Yaojin in surprise.

Cheng Yaojin laughed and shook his head: "Wherever I go, I have already said that Meng Ziqian is a mad dog. No need to guess, there must be a censor who wants to join you at the censorship station tomorrow!"
