Chapter 404 He is no longer a child

Cheng You'an's mouth was stuffed with stuffed buns, and he opened his mouth swollen, asking, "What did his father commit and was imprisoned?"

Qin Zuo: "It is said that one day the old man went out early in the morning to buy ingredients for the back kitchen. When he was walking on the road, a big dog suddenly rushed out and bit him. The old man happened to be buying pork in front of the pig's head stall. He was desperate to protect himself Then he took a bone chopping knife from the pork stall and hacked the dog to death."

"Everyone thought the dog was a mad dog at first, but they didn't expect that the dog was raised by the old lady of the county grandpa's family. That day, the servant of the county grandpa's family took the dog out for a walk without a leash. They didn't expect the dog to suddenly go crazy and bite people."

Cheng You'an interrupted Qin Zuo, puzzled: "Since the dog bit the man, why did the man go in last?"

Qin Zuo looked at him helplessly, thinking to himself, this master is really out of this world, why he still asks why he understands such a thing so clearly.

"Because it's the county grandfather's dog." Qin Zuo said.

Cheng You'an: "So?"

Qin Zuo endured it, and didn't want to waste his time explaining to Cheng You'an such things that ordinary people can understand at a glance, he directly stated the result: "Anyway, the end of the matter is that the owner of the shop was thrown into the prison because he killed the county master's dog. He was sent to prison. The reason for the crime was that he intentionally killed a dog."

Cheng You'an was very angry: "...What kind of fucking weird case is this? It is obvious that the dog attacked the person first, and the person killed the dog for self-protection. Now people are going to jail because of the death of a mad dog. What the hell is this?" Reason! Is there any law of heaven and king! It is simply unreasonable!"

Qin Fenghua looked at Qin Zuo: "Just now you said that Xiao Er gave the county lord a gift, so the county lord sentenced his father to two years less, so where is he now? He's released from prison?"

Qin Zuo shook his head and said, "It's not considered released from prison. His father was sentenced to 13 years, and now he's in a quarry two hundred miles away from here. That's where Kuyu City is specially used to reform criminals through labor."

Cheng Youan: "Sentenced to 13 years! Is this the result of a commutation of the sentence? Then the co-author of that bullshit county magistrate will be sentenced to 15 years?"

Cheng You'an didn't even eat the steamed stuffed bun. He threw away the big steamed stuffed bun and stood up. He said to Qin Fenghua, "Let's go, let's kill that dog official and eliminate harm for the people."

Qin Fenghua raised his eyes to look at him, and asked curiously: "Cheng You'an, since when did you have such a sense of justice? It's quite new. I remember that when you went to the capital, you used your status to bully people like that county magistrate, didn't you? Why? Now that you are outside, you want to be a chivalrous man, and you have become a chivalrous man?"

Cheng Youan blushed at Qin Fenghua's words: "You...Qin Fenghua, how can you compare me with that bastard county magistrate? Although I'm a bastard, I've never sent anyone to prison for a dog. Besides," he looked at Qin Fenghua's face and muttered in a low voice, "I hate people who walk their dogs without leashes the most."

Qin Fenghua raised his eyebrows and said, "What? Have you been bitten by a dog?"

Qin Fenghua just said this casually, but Cheng You'an really answered seriously: "Yes, I have been bitten, so I really, really hate those people who walk their dogs without leashes."

"Didn't realize that you, a rich dude who is on par with the Fifth Prince in Shangjing, was bullied by dogs." Qin Fenghua looked at Cheng You'an with a funny face, and asked casually, "Whose dog bit you, did you take revenge? "

Qin Fenghua thought, with the temper of Cheng You'an and his father Cheng Guogong, this revenge must be avenged, and the dog owner must be too hungry to walk around, but what he didn't expect was that after she asked this question, Cheng You'an's face flickered With an angry and unwilling expression, his mouth was tightly pursed, and he choked out two words "no".

This time Qin Fenghua was really curious, looked at him seriously and said: "It seems that the dog owner has a lot of background, who is it? Can you still make Cheng Xiaoye miserable?"

Cheng You'an looked at Qin Fenghua's schadenfreude and became angry, and choked: "Qin Fenghua, why are you smiling? Do you know that your smile is ugly. I was bitten by a dog and you still laugh. Do you have any sympathy?" ?”

"Uh..." This is the first time Qin Fenghua was unable to fight back when Cheng Youan pointed at her nose and scolded her, because what Cheng Youan said was right, she was a little gloating, basing her own happiness on the pain of others, which is not good. Qin Fenghua realized that his behavior was inappropriate, so he immediately put away his smile, corrected his attitude, and apologized to Cheng You'an. Then he continued the previous topic and asked curiously, "So who is the owner of the dog?"

Cheng You'an reluctantly accepted Qin Fenghua's apology, and then angrily spit out a name on his face: "It's Li Yunxuan's dog."

"Second Prince Li Yunxuan?" Qin Fenghua said.

Cheng You'an: "Yes, that's him. At that time, he raised a hunting dog that had been a vassal state's tribute, and he took his dog son with him wherever he went, even when he went to the study room and class..."

Cheng You'an used to be the companion of the Nine Princes for a period of time, and studied in the upper study with all the princes and companions selected from the aristocratic family.

"So you were bitten in the study?" Qin Fenghua guessed.

Cheng You'an shook his head: "No, it was once when we went to riding and archery class, the bastard of the Second Prince saw that the school field was very big, and said that his dog son had worked hard with him in class, so he insisted on untying the rope to let his dog son relax, Then……"

"Then you were bitten tragically?" Qin Fenghua answered.

"That's right," Cheng You'an said helplessly, "At that time, the dog untied the rope like crazy and rushed towards me. With such a big body, it jumped on me directly. I was only nine years old at the time. If you think about that scene, it’s my fate that I’m still alive to talk to you here.”

As he said that, Cheng You'an gestured at a certain part of his thigh, and said, "I was bitten off by that vicious dog at that time, and I still have a big scar."

Qin Fenghua glanced at the place Cheng You'an mentioned. It was on the outside of his thigh. Although it was covered by his pants, Qin Fenghua imagined the scene at that time. A bloody piece of thigh was bitten off by a beast. Think about it It hurts, not to mention that Cheng Youan was only a nine-year-old child at the time, and now he hates dogs biting people so deeply, it is understandable that he is filled with righteous indignation.

Qin Fenghua: "Then what happened later? Did the second prince get any punishment?"

Cheng You'an smiled sarcastically, and said: "Punishment? How can there be any punishment? The second prince's mother concubine is Chang Guifei, who has been in the harem for many years. It was the time when Chang Guifei was the most favored. The queen must avoid her sharp edge, what punishment do you think the second prince will receive."

Qin Fenghua understood: "What about the dog? The dog was not executed?"

Cheng You'an: "No, originally my aunt wanted to seek justice for me, but because Concubine Chang Gui cried bitterly in front of His Majesty, His Majesty softened his heart, and Li Yunxuan was not punished in any way, even the dog was just sent to I went to the palace in the suburbs to give birth.”

"Do you know what is the most ironic thing?" Cheng You'an looked into Qin Fenghua's eyes and said, this is the first time Qin Fenghua saw Cheng You'an's eyes that were different from the past, there was unwillingness, sarcasm, and loneliness in the eyes, yes, lonely, this word It really doesn't suit him, Qin Fenghua thought.

As if he didn't expect Qin Fenghua to answer the question at the beginning, he continued on his own: "The most ironic thing is that Li Yunxuan came to my house to visit me hypocritically after the incident. Do you know what he said to me? He said that what I lost was just A piece of meat on his leg, but what he lost was his precious dog son, and he even hated me, ha! You are ridiculous."

Qin Fenghua looked at him and couldn't laugh. She felt that Cheng You'an was really miserable.

Qin Fenghua has never been a master who is good at comforting others. Now that he heard Cheng Youan's tragic childhood experience for the first time, he didn't know what to say to comfort him. He could only express sympathy to him with his eyes and deeply condemn the second prince Li Yunxuan , I hope Cheng You'an can see her sympathetic eyes.

And Cheng You'an obviously didn't receive the message from Qin Fenghua's eyes full of deep meaning. It seemed that he was indignant at the grievances he suffered when he was a child. The more he thought about it, the more angry he became, and the angrier he became, the more he put himself into that poor shopkeeper. Finally, he slapped the table and said brazenly: "No, I'm in charge of this matter, I'm going to let that bastard county magistrate who walks his dog without a leash see how powerful I am!"

Qin Fenghua: "..."

She looked at the agitated Cheng You'an, she knew she shouldn't throw cold water on him at this time, but there was no way, this pot of cold water had to be thrown now.

"Cheng Youan, I sympathize with what happened to you, and I understand your feelings, but have you forgotten what we are going to do?" Qin Fenghua looked into Cheng Youan's eyes and said word by word, "We can't delay Here, there is no time to stay here."

"But..." Cheng You'an wanted to fight again.

"Think about your cousin and aunt." Qin Fenghua said calmly.

Cheng You'an stopped talking, he was no longer a nine-year-old child, he knew the priority of things.

Seeing Cheng Youan's gloomy look, Qin Fenghua stood up and patted Cheng Youan's shoulder, comforting him, "Come back to deal with things here when we're done."

"Oh." Cheng You'an responded sullenly, and with lowered eyes, he took a big bun from the table and stuffed it into his mouth, and ate it tastelessly.

Qin Fenghua: "When you're full, go up and pack your things. We have to rush to the next town before the sandstorm hits, so don't think about other things, and focus on what's in front of you."

"Oh." Cheng You'an responded in a low voice again.

Qin Fenghua looked at the top of his head, and said again worriedly: "Cheng You'an, don't be a moth, or the consequences are not something you and I can afford, you know?"

"Understood, you are so annoying, are you going or not?" Cheng You'an finally raised his head to look at Qin Fenghua, and began to curse, as if he had become that defiant Shangjing dude again.

Qin Fenghua stared at him for a while, then nodded, without saying a word, took two white buns from the table and went upstairs.
