The scorching sun is like fire.

In the Su Mansion courtyard, there were 100 men, women, young and old people in the mansion were gathered and stood in several rows.

With the help of maid Arou, Mrs. Su stood in front of everyone, not forgetting to pose, and shouted sternly: "You are so brave! Even my wife's jewelry is so brave that she can eat the leopard? Who should stand up obediently, otherwise she will be searched later. Don't blame me for not reminding you, as it will inevitably be in prison!"

There is a saying: the yamen faces south, rich people go in and out and lose their money, and poor people will be skinned alive, and severely they will die.

In particular, the punishments in the Song Dynasty were particularly strict. All punishments were assassinated and slaughtered. According to the severity of the crime, the words or patterns were stabbed at different positions on the head. Especially for women who committed crimes, they were even more terrifying. Not only were they stabbed, but they were often beaten by taking off their pants in public. These would make female prisoners unable to raise their heads for the rest of their lives.

It is precisely because of this that the common people in the Song Dynasty learned to swallow their anger and became little rabbits. Unless the rabbit is really anxious, they will not have any interaction with the government.

The people of these Su Mansion were all scared. No matter whether they had stolen Mrs. Su's jewelry or not, they would feel inexplicably scared.

This is a normal reaction, Yang Fan can understand.

Mrs. Su waited for a while and saw that no one admitted it, so she turned to Yang Fan and said coldly: "Since no one admits it, then start searching!"

Yang Fan glanced at Su Tingting and saw that she nodded in agreement, so he searched them one by one with more than a dozen guards and interrogated them one by one.

An hour later, Yang Fan and others searched, but did not find the lost jade pendant of Mrs. Su.

Su Tingting glanced at Mrs. Su, hoping to see the other party’s joke. She stood here for almost two hours, so she said impatiently: “Since you haven’t found the jade pendant, then let’s all go away!”

"Slow down! No one is allowed to leave if you don't find the jade pendant!" Mrs. Su was angry when she heard Su Tingting's words. She shouted sweetly and refused to give up.

Su Tingting suddenly frowned, with an unhappy expression, and said, "Isn't it just a jade pendant? You have been hiding a lot of private money over the years, and you can just ask someone to get another one!"

"That's not an ordinary jade pendant! It's the token of love given to me by the master!" Mrs. Su snorted coldly and looked at Su Tingting with provocation.

Sure enough, when Su Tingting heard the origin of the jade pendant, her pretty face suddenly turned cold. She looked at Mrs. Su coldly. Even a fool could see that the word "bitter" was written in her eyes.

At this moment, a team of officials came to the Su family compound. The leader was named Chen Suan, the headmaster of Hangzhou Prefecture. At the invitation of Mrs. Su, he came to investigate theft of the jade pendant.

Su Tingting frowned. Like everyone else, she hated letting the government interfere in family affairs the most.

As the saying goes, "The King of Hell is easy to see, and the little ghost is difficult to deal with. Su Tingting has long experienced Chen Suan, a group of people who are in charge. They have to eat and get a scattered job. A small matter that is a little bigger than sesame seeds will be a bottomless pit when it comes to the government, which is so annoying.

In front of Chen Suan, Su Tingting immediately scolded Huang Quan and said, "Butler Huang, are you confused? Why don't you do it for a small matter? Is it true that Captain Chen comes forward in person? Don't you know that Captain Chen is a busy person? How can you afford to delay other people's business?"

"Miss is the lesson that I don't think about it! I'll send Captain Chen and other officials away!" Huang Quan said hurriedly, nodding and not daring to refute.

As the chief constable of Hangzhou Prefecture, Chen Suan was naturally smart and tight. How could he not understand Su Tingting's words to criticize the Sang and Huaihuai? But he was eating this bowl of rice, and his face was naturally thicker than the city wall.

He didn't care at all, but instead deliberately approached Su Tingting and looked at her peerless appearance. Even though he knew that the other party was scolding him, he couldn't get angry. Instead, he felt unspeakable comfort.

This is a disease that cannot be cured!

"Miss Su is too worried!" Chen Suan swallowed his saliva and looked at Su Tingting lustfully and said, "The Su family is a big taxpayer in Hangzhou. The expenses of half of the Hangzhou Prefecture depend on the Su family! The Su family's affairs are the affairs of our Hangzhou Prefecture. Even if it is a little bit bigger, it is a huge thing for Chen!"

Su Tingting felt disgusted when she saw Chen Suan's appearance. She took a step back and kept a distance from the other party, but had to force herself to say, "It's just that I lost a small object. I guess I will be able to find it soon, so I won't bother Captain Chen! Captain Chen is busy with official business, so I come to my Su Mansion for this small matter. Naturally, I can't treat you badly. Butler Huang, go and get a thousand guan to share with you all the officials and brothers, and then give it to Chen's shop!"

Su Tingting wanted to send Chen Suan and others away, but Chen Suan was smart and would not leave easily.

Chen Suan immediately smiled and said, "We appreciate Miss Su's kindness! But we will not receive any rewards without any merits. Let's wait until we finish investigating this case!"

Su Tingting still wanted to stop it, but Chen Suan threatened for obstructing public service. She said helplessly: "Since that's the case, then there will be a lot of trouble for Captain Chen and all the officials and brothers!"

"Miss Su is polite!" Chen Suan smiled and looked at Su Tingting with his eyes curled up.

After finally meeting Su Tingting, Chen Suan wanted to say a few more words to this fairy-like beauty. However, Su Tingting was so disgusted with him that she hurried away like a plague god, which made him look disappointed.

Su Tingting came directly to Yang Fan. At this moment, the only one who could give her a sense of security in her heart seemed to be Yang Fan who bravely entered the bandit's nest to save her.

"I hate these officials the most. I stare at the Su family like maggots all day long! Especially Chen Suan, his eyes look at others are so terrible, like bandits!" Su Tingting murmured in Yang Fan's ear, exhaling like orchids.

She looked like a pretty woman and took the initiative to hold Yang Fan's arm, as if a helpless person in the sea suddenly grabbed a life-saving straw, and she had a strong dependence.

Yang Fan hasn't been so close to Su Tingting for many days. At this moment, he smelled the familiar body fragrance on Su Tingting's body again, and suddenly recalled the feeling of kissing her that day. He couldn't help but sway in his heart, and he touched her earlobe and joking in a low voice: "Who made my Tingting look so beautiful like a fairy celestial Chen? Any man would look at you like that!"

Su Tingting was quite confident in her beauty, and countless people praised her like that, but she felt particularly happy when she said the same words from Yang Fan.

"Stop being stinky! Who is your Tingting?" Su Tingting gave Yang Fan a blank look and said coquettishly.

A hint of blush appeared on her face, delicate and charming. If it weren't for the public's eyes, Yang Fan really wanted to press her down and kiss her immediately.

Chen Suan ordered his subordinates to intervene in the investigation. He took a break and wanted to look at Su Tingting more, but found that Su Tingting was whispering to Yang Fan. Although he couldn't hear what he was saying, he felt like they were flirting with each other secretly.

In Chen Suan's impression, Su Tingting is as tall as a goddess on weekdays, despising all men, always with a cold expression that keeps people from thousands of miles away.

But at this moment, Su Tingting showed a pretty look like a happy little woman to Yang Fan, acting cute with Yang Fan, as if falling in love, which made him suddenly feel a strong sense of jealousy.

He couldn't help but walk over with a shy face, and took the initiative to strike up a conversation: "This young man looks so nervous! I don't know the name of Gao?"

Yang Fan was vaccinated by Su Tingting in advance, so naturally he had no good impression of Chen Suan. He said lightly: "Let's go to Yang Fan!"

"You are Yang Fan!" Chen Suan blurted out, a little lost, and then said: "I heard that Yang Fan's reputation has been a long time ago and bravely broke into the bandit's nest to rescue Miss Su. This matter has spread in Hangzhou City! I am lucky to see him today, but I am lucky to have three lives!"

Chen Suan was very good at speaking, and Yang Fan could only smile and said: "Captain Chen has been awarded the award! He is here to protect the Su Mansion and save his lady's responsibility!"

Seeing that Su Tingting and Yang Fan were very close, Chen Suan suddenly asked curiously: "I heard for a long time that Miss Su never lets a man get within three feet of her. It seems that it is different from the rumors when I see you today?!"

Yang Fan didn't know about this rumor, so he looked at Su Tingting.

Su Tingting immediately smiled, took Yang Fan's arm again, and said, "Other men are not good at all! But Yang Fan is different. He saved me. In order to repay my life-saving grace, I plan to promise myself, so Yang Fan can be regarded as my fiancé, and it doesn't matter how close it is!"

Yang Fan was stunned and a little at a loss. He looked at Su Tingting and guessed whether what she said was true or not.

Chen Suan was about to collapse. The goddess in his heart was about to marry another man. This was unbearable. For a moment, envy, jealousy and hatred surged in his heart.

A ruthless look flashed in his eyes, and then he forced a laugh and said, "That's such a handsome man, congratulations to you both! But--"

Chen Suan changed his mind and suddenly said to Yang Fan: "But Yang Bantu must be mentally prepared. Miss Su is the number one beauty in our Hangzhou City. Many princes and nobles, talented heroes are watching closely. If they know that you have taken away the goddess in their hearts, they will probably fight to your death!"

Chen Suan deliberately emphasized his tone on the word "bantou", reminding Yang Fan to pay attention to his identity. A white and rich beauty like Su Tingting cannot be possessed by him. He will have life worries and the threat is very strong.

Yang Fan frowned, of course, he could hear the other party's words and the sunshine. He also had an in-depth understanding of the Su family these days. The Su family has a million wealth, but in fact it is just rich and has no major forces behind it as a backer. But there is only Su Tingting, a daughter, and Su Tingting is also beautiful. Whoever can become Su Tingting's husband is equivalent to a fortune and sex, which is enough to make any man crazy about it.

Thinking of the actions of Zhang Yang, Wang Mazi, Huang Quan, Cui Liu and others some time ago, Yang Fan already knew that the water in the Su Mansion was very deep and mixed. If he was not careful, he might be worried about his life. This is definitely not an exaggeration.

In just a moment, Yang Fan thought about a lot of questions. He looked at Su Tingting and guessed that the other party was suddenly so close to him, and he was even more like his fiancé. It was obvious that the carriage was about to pull him into the water.

Su Tingting was smart and smart. When she saw Yang Fan's eyes, she knew that he had discovered her purpose. However, she did not give Yang Fan a chance to explain. Yanran smiled and said, "Ms. I hope that all men in Hangzhou will come to teach Yang Fan a lesson. If he is beaten to death by those people, it only means that he has no ability! But Miss. I believe in her own vision. Yang Fan will definitely be able to surpass all the heroes and eventually become my husband!"

As he said that, Su Tingting hugged Yang Fan's arm tightly again, and whispered in his ear: "If you don't want to expose the identity of the descendant of Guigu, just smile!"

Yang Fan was speechless and had to grin and smile bitterly, as accusation. He regretted it at this moment. He made up the identity of Guigu casually, but he didn't know how dangerous the identity of Guigu was. Once someone knew it, no matter whether it was true or false, he would inevitably fight for it or even kill it directly.

This is reality!

Seeing Yang Fan's expression, Chen Suan believed it and smiled and said, "Yang Bantu really has the courage! I admire him!"

At this time, the other officials had already asked questions separately and did not find the suspicious person. They came back to report to Chen Suan.

Everyone searched, but Yang Fan was still alone. Chen Suan said, "Yang Bantu, don't you mind searching your body, do you?"

Yang Fan frowned. He hated others searching for his body, but this was the Song Dynasty and the other party was an official, so he had no choice but to give in.

Chen Suan sneered, walked up to Yang Fan, searched him personally, and whispered: "I was originally a hero, and I want to make friends with you! But unfortunately, you have messed with someone you shouldn't mess with, don't blame Chen for being so mean!"

Yang Fan was shocked when he heard this and realized something was wrong, but unfortunately it was too late. Chen Suan suddenly shouted: "Yang Bantu, is this jade pendant yours?"

When Yang Fan saw it, he frowned. It was not his jade pendant, could it be Mrs. Su's?

His eyes tightened, and seeing Chen Suan smiled sinisterly, he immediately gritted his teeth and shouted angrily: "Damn! You dare to insult me!"
