Chapter 254: [Room]
After seeing off the relatives of the Chen family, Chen's father was not in a hurry to talk about Boss Chen's affairs, and began to instruct Chen's mother to take the servants to arrange a room for Li Chengqian.
Li Chengqian rejected Chen's father and mother and wanted to give up his main courtyard room for him to live in.
"Why am I so embarrassed to sleep in the room your parents slept in, or I would sleep in the room you were in back then?" Li Chengqian discussed with Xiao Chen.
Xiao Chen smiled slightly and went to discuss with his parents.
When Li Chengqian walked into this room full of faint fragrance, he saw the little sister of the Chen family looking at her with some resentment.
At this time, Li Chengqian understood a little. He asked Xiao Chen quietly, and it was really what he thought. This room was originally lived in the Chen family. Xiao Chen has been in the palace for four years, so it is normal for the Chen family to live in her room for the Chen family.
When he ran to sleep in his sister-in-law's boudoir, Li Chengqian was evil first because he remembered a sentence: My sister-in-law is half of her butt.
"She is all right. Does Your Highness want to touch her ass?" Xiao Chen said quietly: "Besides, you don't even touch my ass often, why do you want to touch her as soon as you see my sister?"
"Stop talking nonsense!" Li Chengqian pinched her nose, "I'll ask you, why did I feel like you and your father-in-law and mother-in-law are a little bit like that, and she looks very excited in front of relatives!"
Li Chengqian is still tactful and implicit!
"Show off!" Xiao Chen said bluntly, "I finally got married to such a good husband, so of course I have to show off in front of my relatives!"
As she said that, she rubbed Li Chengqian and twisted, and said happily: "I was so beautiful just now!"
"Vii!" Li Chengqian said stinkyly.
Now I finally understand the strange atmosphere just now. It turned out that Xiao Chen and Chen’s father and mother were respected. And I became a tool for them to show off. It was funny to think about it, but it was quite proud to let women and father-in-law show off in front of relatives for themselves. Well, Li Chengqian also had vanity.
"Okay, this time I'm here to make the decision for your elder brother. I'll show off and wait until my elder brother is rescued. Let's see if my father-in-law is free. Let's ask about my elder brother-in-law." Li Chengqian pushed Xiao Chen in his arms.
Xiao Chen also knew the importance of it, so he went out to find Chen's father. After a while, Chen's father and Chen Laoer came over.
After the plot of your question and answer, Li Chengqian learned about the specific situation about Boss Chen. This is similar to what they said in their letter to Xiao Chen, but it is more detailed.
This is the thing. In March and April last year, it was rainy in Qizhou, and a large area of dysentery occurred in Sanlitun. Zhang Zhongjing's "Treatise on Febrile Diseases" records that the prescription for treating dysentery is Gegen Cenlian Decoction. The most important medicine is Pueraria root. The Chen family's medicinal materials are also operated in that place, and a lot of Pueraria root was used to treat dysentery. Even if this disaster money is not unintentional, it can make a lot of money.
The Xiao family is a friend of Boss Chen. He was jealous of Boss Chen making money, so he wanted to make money with him.
"Dad, tell the truth, why did the elder brother agree to the Xiao family so easily?" Xiao Chen asked.
Li Chengqian also thought that Boss Chen is a businessman. I am afraid he is not an emotional person. How could he share half of his business with the other party just because the other party is a friend?
Chen's father looked at Li Chengqian and found it difficult to speak.
"Father-in-law, you also know that I came out of plainclothes this time. So to save my brother-in-law, I cannot use my identity and power to force people. Instead, I need reason and justice to let the county magistrate release people. So you need to tell all the good and bad things so that I can arrange a way to save my brother-in-law." Li Chengqian said frankly.
Xiao Chen also nodded and agreed with Li Chengqian.
Chen's father hesitated for a moment before saying, "Although Ada has never mentioned it to me, I know my son, but my father is better than my father. The Xiao family has no extra money to buy medicinal materials and wants to use his restaurant to change herbs. Ada had wanted that restaurant early, so he agreed to him."
This is reasonable. Li Chengqian nodded. If there was no benefit, who would have given up his own family's interests?
After opening this mouth, Chen's father had nothing to hide and said, "I agree with the Xiao family if they want to come in. My Chen family has been there for several years and established a good reputation in March last year. It is not something that the Xiao family who has just entered can grab the business, so they are not afraid of the Xiao family at all."
It seems that this father-in-law Jun is also an old fox.
"The people of the Xiao family are really useless. Not only do they not even keep their own restaurants, they have been losing money before they passed by Adashou. They are also very careless when they start the medicinal materials business. Of course, the place will not sell as hot as when they are sick, but the medicinal materials are always price-saving things, and they will never lose anything. But when they find that they can't sell much, they feel relieved. The medicinal materials are placed in the yard casually. As a result, it rains and the medicinal materials are wasted!" Chen's father sighed.
"The Xiao family is not good at doing business, but it is good at being a scoundrel. After returning, I wanted to return the broken medicinal materials. Of course, my Chen family cannot. The Xiao family sued us Ada and sued him for money and killed him!" Chen's father was very angry when he said this, "The old father of the Xiao family saw that his son sold his ancestral property and was angry to death. Now he has actually pushed his sins to us Ada!"
Li Chengqian hurriedly comforted the old man, and after Chen's father calmed down, he asked, "How long has my brother-in-law been arrested?"
"It's almost a month or ten days." Chen Laoer replied.
"How is this lawsuit being fought? We obviously have some reason here. How could the yamen arrest my brother-in-law?" Li Chengqian understood everything else, but he didn't understand the middle part.
Is this the law of the Tang Dynasty, which has no protection for merchants at all, and it is the merchant’s fault if there is something wrong?
In the words of Chen's father and Chen Laoer, Li Chengqian gradually understood. First of all, the county magistrate in this place is the highest administrative officer here and the president of the court. If you want to sue, you will directly find the county magistrate and hand over the paper, and the county magistrate will handle it.
The way county officials handle cases is a combination of law and reason.
He asked both the plaintiff and the defendant, and whoever made the right statement would be wrong. There is a subjective element here, which sometimes depends on the county magistrate's personal emotions and hobbies. For example, everyone in the world hates businessmen, so the county magistrate favors the victim Xiao family in the case.
Now that Boss Chen is being held in jail, he is waiting for the final judgment. Not only will he have to compensate the Xiao family, but he also needs to be fined and sentenced to Boss Chen to jail.
Xiao Chen cried so hard when he heard this. Li Chengqian frowned and thought for a while, and asked:
"What is this local official named? Who is the biggest official in Qizhou?"
Chen Laoer replied that the county magistrate of this place was named Wang and Fu, and he had been in office for two years. The biggest official was Zhang Liang, the governor of Qizhou.
