I farmed and built a villa in ancient times

Chapter 212

He goes first?
Xiao Qi looked at Miss Zhou standing aside. She and the master stood together, like a pair made in heaven.

The corners of Xiao Qi's lips raised secretly, but when she saw the master's cold and solemn expression, she immediately did not dare to make a mistake and obeyed the order obediently:
"Yes, Master!"

Xiaoqi led two tall horses and walked along the wild grass road. When they reached a flat land near the stream and near the water source, he stopped and took the horses to the stream to drink water.

Zhou Chenyu also noticed Yang Xi's expression, and his brows seemed to be furrowed deeper than usual.

Just now he was afraid of worrying her in front of Li Xiuju, so he didn't let him tell the truth. Now that there is no one around, he should be able to ask:
She looked at him and asked, "Yang Xi, how is the matter with Qian Rushan?"

Yang Xi watched Xiao Qi walk away, turned around, and looked at Zhou Shen Yu's searching gaze, not wanting to hide it:
"Chen Yu, the Qian Mansion has found a famous litigator in the provincial capital named Jiang Jing for Qian Rushan. This person is extremely difficult to deal with. He can confuse right and wrong with just a few words and break the law. With him here , I’m afraid tomorrow’s confrontation in court may not go as smoothly as we expected.”

Lawyer?

Good guy, isn’t that a lawyer?
Not only were there witnesses and physical evidence in this matter, but Qian Rushan also had a criminal record.

Why still need foreign aid?

However, I heard that in the past, litigators mostly served people from the upper class, and the common people below called them litigators.

Also, Qian Rushan is indeed Qian Rushan, and what he did is not surprising at all.

Isn't he now trying to find ways to clear his name and reduce his punishment?

Zhou Chenyu blinked and looked at Yang Xi, "Then what should I do?"

Yang Xi's eyes deepened and he continued: "Based on Jiang Jing's past methods, I guess this person is very likely to turn passive into active. The false accusation is that you, Chen Cuiping and Zhou Wanqiu set up a trap to frame Qian Rushan. This is one of them. "

"Secondly, when the incident at Jixiang Tower happened, many guests were downstairs. They only vaguely heard the noisy noises and did not see Qian Rushan violence against you with their own eyes. They did not really know what happened until we went there. . There is too much room for maneuver here, and it is not enough to serve as ironclad evidence."

This?
Zhou Chenyu was filled with hatred. If she had known that the process would be so troublesome, she should have done justice to him that day and maimed him on the spot.

Yang Xi looked at her and concentrated his eyes, "Chen Yu, when we confront you in the hall tomorrow, Jiang Jing will definitely say many ugly and excessive words to slander you and irritate you, so as to find out your faults so that he can fight back in the hall. Tomorrow in the hall. You need to be extremely careful when speaking, and you must not let them catch you in the wrong place.”

Things went beyond her expectations, and Zhou Chenyu gradually realized the seriousness of the matter. Fortunately, she was thick-skinned and not bound by the rules here.

You can scold me if you want. If she gets angry, she loses.

"I see."

Zhou Chenyu nodded with some emotion:
"Chen Cuiping exposed Qian Rushan's bad behavior to you, and coupled with the many witnesses and material evidence in Jixiang Tower, it turned out that Qian Rushan could not be brought down."

"Yang Xi, you were right to scold me that day at Jirentang. I really thought things were too simple and too easy, that's why I made such a big mistake."

Zhou Chenyu said dullly, with a look of pity and helplessness in his eyes, "If it weren't for you here, I really wouldn't know how I would die."

Yang Xi pursed her lips, "I have been handling cases in the government office all year round, and I have dealt with a lot of Qian Rushan's affairs, so I know a lot about everything in the Qian Mansion. And you only took the risk because he was forcing you to have no other choice. I don’t blame you for using this method. Chen Yu, you only need to do as I say tomorrow and leave the rest to me, don’t worry."

Zhou Chenyu listened to his words, nodded, and raised the corner of his mouth, "Thank you." "Thank you for what?" Yang Xi said in a deep voice, raising the curvature of his mouth. Listening to the sound of gurgling water flowing through the rocks, he remained silent. He lowered his eyes, picked up her hand, looked at her and asked:
"Chen Yu, how have your injuries been after a few days? Let me take a look."

His big palm fell on the back of his hand, and Zhou Chenyu's hand seemed to be wrapped in a ball of warmth, as warm, solid and reassuring as the one hiding in his arms that day.

She looked at his worried expression and silently rolled up her sleeves, revealing the centipede-shaped wound.

"The wound is almost healed, but the thread that sewed the wound cannot be removed and can only grow with the flesh. If things go on like this, my hand will look a bit weird and scary."

Scary?

Yang Xi lowered her head, gently wrapped her arm around her big palm, and gently stroked the raised scars on her skin with her rough fingertips. Her mind automatically recalled that day when she opened the strips of cloth that wrapped the wounds, and the strips of cloth fell from them. A bloody scene of dripping blood.

He looked at her seriously and said, "Compared to your life, the scars left on the wounds are nothing. How can they be scary?"

Yang Xi's right hand holds the knife all year round, and the palm and fingertips are so hard that it hurts.

When she was alone with him before, she kept teasing him and teasing him. Today, his sudden concern made her a little uncomfortable.

Being caressed by him, Zhou Chenyu could feel the throbbing of blood vessels under his thin skin.

She smiled and tested him duplicitously: "Yang Xi, why are you so nervous about me all of a sudden? Didn't you say before... and that my life and death, Zhou Chenyu, had nothing to do with you?"

"Chen Yu, I..." Yang Xi froze there, remembering the angry look when he spoke at that time. The anger was real, and what he said at that time was also serious.

She didn't blame herself at all.

Yang Xi didn't know how to explain it, so he let go of his hand silently.

Zhou Chenyu looked at him speechless and liked to tease him like this, which made his face turn red.

"Idiot, I'm teasing you." She held his big palm tightly with her backhand and said with a sweet smile:
"Yang Xi, I only heard this kind of thing once, and I'm not allowed to say it again."

Yang Xi looked at the lack of anger on her face, and then realized that the question just now was just her usual nonsense and teasing.

Only this time he was willing to fall into the trap, the corners of his lips raised quietly, and he replied with a smile: "Okay, I promise you."

-

Xiao Qi pulled the horses and stood by the stream. After waiting for a while, she saw the master coming over. She quickly washed her hands and led the two horses to greet them. "Master, have you finished talking to Miss Zhou? Then we should go back home." Are you in office?"

Yang Xi looked at the depressed scene by the river and frowned, "Xiao Qi, you go back first. I need to see someone. You don't have to follow me. Go back to the government office on your own."

"Meeting someone?" Xiaoqi scratched his head and caught up: "Master, who do you want to see?"

Yang Xi jumped onto the horse, pulled the reins, and said with a cold look in his slightly raised sharp eyes, "I'm meeting a very important person, ride!"
