Happy Little Scholar

"You guys, who taught you the song you just sang?" Wan Xu finally caught up with the children on a street somewhere in Kyoto and asked eagerly.

"It's a big brother I don't know. If you can sing, you can get a candied haws on a stick!" A child said in a show-off manner as he raised the candied haws in his hand.

Wan Xu immediately asked: "Where is he now?"

"I don't know, I left a long time ago..." After one of the children said something, they scattered and ran away.

"The ancestral system cannot be abolished; the eldest son will sit on the throne; when heaven punishes him, he will become famous; when the country prospers, a wise man will be king..."

Wan Xu stayed in place, watching the children walk away, but the sound of the song still lingered in his ears.

"Something big is going to happen." Wan Xu thought in his mind as he murmured a few lyrics.

…

The capital ordered Liu Dayou to come out of his concubine's room, refreshed and radiant.

He feels that his recent fortune is really good, everything he does goes smoothly, and he avoids trouble whenever he encounters it.

Unlike that idiot from the Ministry of Punishment, who wants money rather than his life, he is simply asking for death.

Since the last case happened and the court took heavy measures to improve public security, Kyoto has become much more peaceful, and even small cases such as theft have rarely occurred.

There were no cases, and he, the capital magistrate, lived a comfortable life, but every time he thought about his subordinate not long ago, he had now become the Minister of Justice, which was two levels higher than his official position, and he felt quite strange in his heart.

In the past few days, there have been rumors circulating in Kyoto about the King of Shu. It is said that he was the one behind the last case. Regarding this matter, the superiors have just put pressure on him to control it to avoid having a bad impact on the reputation of His Highness the King of Shu. .

How can he control himself when his mouth is on others? He himself thought that this matter was done by the King of Shu.

However, complaints are complaints, and some superficial work still needs to be done. Catch a few people who openly spread rumors and lock them up for two days, and the voices below will naturally become quieter.

He walked to the front hall and was about to handle a certain case. When he saw more than a dozen farmers crowded in the hall, seemingly arguing over something, he frowned and said, "No noise is allowed in the courtroom!"

Before he came here, he already had a general understanding of the matter.

When more than a dozen farmers were working in their fields, a white fox ran across the field with a piece of yellow cloth in its mouth and uttered human words, which frightened the farmers.

Even if you are scared, you still have to catch the talking fox. This is auspicious, great auspiciousness.

If you donate it to the government, you won't be able to get a large reward of silver. Isn't it much better than farming your own land?

"Where is the fox?" Magistrate Liu waved his hand and asked after the silence below.

"Sir, the auspiciousness is here." Two farmers immediately brought a bamboo cage over. Magistrate Liu took a few glances and realized that it was just a fox. Although white foxes are rare, they can't be called anything. Xiangrui, as for speaking people's words, it is completely nonsense.

"You said this fox can talk, let him say a word." Magistrate Liu glanced at everyone. A group of unscrupulous people dared to use a fox to pretend to be auspicious. If the fox cannot speak, they must be beaten ten times. Banzi, what do you think the county government is?

A burly farmer smiled bitterly and said: "Sir, this fox did speak, and many people heard it. If you don't believe it, you can ask them to ask, the grass people, the grass people really can't control the auspiciousness! "

"Oh, then you should tell me what this auspiciousness said." Magistrate Liu was in a good mood today, and he became interested now. He walked over and sat down, picked up the tea cup, and asked with interest.

"Xiangrui said..., what are you talking about?" The farmer thought for a while, "What, what is a real dragon..."

He turned around with some confusion and asked everyone, "I can't remember what Xiangrui said at that time."

"It seems like a real dragon. What does a real dragon mean..."

"The true dragon should be the leader..."

"I remembered, the true dragon should be the eldest son, that's it!"

…

…

Several people discussed for a while and came up with the result. The farmer who just spoke stepped forward, handed over a piece of yellow cloth in his hand, and said: "Sir, this piece of yellow cloth fell from Xiangrui's mouth when he spoke. When it came out, what Xiangrui said at that time was "The true dragon should be the eldest son."

Edit, keep editing...

Magistrate Liu looked at them with disdain, and when he spoke, yellow cloth fell from his mouth, why didn't he drop gold?

A real dragon should be regarded as the eldest son of a wise man. If he just said a random sentence to fool the government, do he really think he is an idiot?

However, several farmers, none of whom could read Chinese characters, made up this sentence and read it quite smoothly, "True dragon, real dragon should be... for what?"

Snap!

Suddenly, as if he realized something, Magistrate Liu's hand shook unconsciously, the tea cup dropped, and half the cup of hot tea was poured onto him.

The tea was boiling hot, but Magistrate Liu didn't notice it. He picked up the yellow cloth in his hand and looked carefully. He saw a lifelike five-clawed golden dragon on the back, and his hand couldn't help but tremble again.

"Come here, arrest them all!" After coming to his senses, he suddenly stood up from his seat, pointed at the ten farmers, and said to the government officials present.

The dozen or so people were controlled by the government officials before they realized what happened. After they recovered, they turned pale and said loudly: "Sir, what are you doing..."

With a sinister look on his face, he asked coldly: "Tell me, who is instigating you behind the scenes!"

Seeing the sudden change of face of the county magistrate, the farmers who wanted to ask for some rewards were horrified and said hurriedly: "Sir, we don't want the auspiciousness, and we don't want the rewards either. Many people saw and heard it at that time. You, You can ask them..."

Magistrate Liu looked at him and asked, "Where are those people?"

"They are all in the village." The farmer said tremblingly.

"Let's go!" Magistrate Liu came down from the hall. He didn't even have time to change his clothes. He waved to the man and said, "Lead the way!"

…

…

"Are you okay? Are you okay?"

Li Yi was busy in the kitchen, and Tsundere Loli poked her head out for the unknown number of times.

Li Yi glanced at her and said, "Why are you so anxious? We have to wait for another half an hour. You can play with Yongning for a while first."

"Yongning is playing on the slide. It's for children. I don't want to play. Sir, how about we play chess..." Tsundere Loli said excitedly: "Dumbo, Dumbo, Jump I know how to use Tigger and the super invincible Roaring Dog in the universe, and now even my father can’t beat me!”

Li Yi didn't look back, waved his hand and said, "If you have nothing to do, go outside and see if the glutinous rice paper has dried in the sun. Remember, you are only allowed to eat two."

"good!"

The tsundere loli ran out like a storm. She had been coveting that thin and sweet thing for a long time.

Li Yi pinched a white square object from the plate, put it in his mouth and tasted it. It was almost soft and hard, but the sweetness was still a little too much, but Xiaohuan, Yongning and Tsundere Loli would definitely like it, but For the sake of their teeth, it would be better to put less sugar next time.

Miss Liu Er walked in from outside and said calmly: "Mission accomplished."

"Is the person you are looking for reliable?" Li Yi turned around and asked.

Miss Liu Er did not answer, but gave him a disdainful look.

Miss Liu Er was always reliable at critical moments, so Li Yi stopped asking and handed over a plate and said, "Try this."

Miss Liu Er took the plate, took out a small piece from it, glanced at Li Yi, and then put it in her mouth.

"What is this?" The next moment, she looked at Li Yi with bright eyes and asked.

Li Yi thought for a while and said, "You can call it - White Rabbit."

"What a strange name..." She curled her lips, turned around and walked outside.

"Wait a minute." Li Yi stopped her in time.

Miss Liu Er turned back.

"Just go and leave the plate." Li Yi crossed his arms and looked at her and asked.

Miss Liu Er looked straight at him.

"Plate, I don't want the plate..." After a moment, Li Yi took a step back and said, "You have to leave two pieces of candy for me, right?"
