Chapter 57 He Li

The people who were being heard outside were already in a state of turmoil. Even if they had known it just now, they would also scold them together.

"I heard that the city was in chaos. This man named Yan actually threw his daughter halfway. Is this his biological father?"

"Yes, I'm worried that my daughter will get sick and get angry. I'm the first time I've heard of it."

"What is a room? Is it a concubine?"

"It's either a concubine or a maid, the maid who has been slept with by his master."

"Ah? I even threw away my daughter for the sake of the maid?"

The sound outside became louder and louder. The yamen runners knocked on the ground with a killing stick and shouted "Silent" and the people had to lower their voices.

The magistrate's eyes slid left and right between Li Qiniang and Yan Zhaoshi, and stopped when it fell on Yan Zhaoshi's face. Yan Zhaoshi couldn't help but a chilled back, as if an ant was crawling along his back. He trembled and quickly lowered his eyes.

The prefect silently despised it in his heart. Yesterday, he heard those officials miss the prosperity of the old capital and say that the century-old ancient capital was outstanding and powerful. Yan Zhaoshi also came from the old capital, haha.

He asked: "Ju Ren Yan, is what Li said true?"

Yan Zhaoshi gritted his teeth: "Since Li said that he had carried five children to the students, why didn't she tell the story of killing the concubine's son? It was originally a family scandal, and if Li hadn't been to the court, the students wouldn't have mentioned it."

The people who were heard were in an uproar again. What did you kill the concubine's son?

Yan Zhaoshi was secretly happy. He straightened his body and said loudly: "The students do have five children, but these five children will have accidents every time they are pregnant. They either have miscarriages or die prematurely. Even if the current pregnant children have miscarriages, they have miscarriages. This is absolutely true."

The prefect frowned: "Do you think this is all caused by Li?"

"Of course, my Yan family is a honest and honest person, but Li is not. She runs a restaurant, does business, is profit-oriented and vulgar. Moreover, she has no children, so she is jealous and kills the children of the students. Who else can she be?"

The prefect frowned even deeper, and he was a little unhappy. His family was just doing business, who doesn’t know about Pingcheng? Will Yan Zhaoshi know?

Yan Zhaoshi really didn't know that although he had social engagements every day, everyone talked about love and romance. Who would mention officialdom? Utilitarian, too utilitarian!

Since Taizu, this dynasty abolished many restrictions on merchants in the previous dynasty. The descendants of merchants could enter school and become officials, but if they really couldn't pass the exam, they could also donate to prison and officials. The court even gave officials to great masters who made outstanding contributions, such as the Li family of Caobang, and the Jianghuai Bo.

Therefore, Yan Zhaoshi's words scolding Li Qiniang not only offended the prefect, but also believed that he was guilty of a group of people being heard outside.

Different from the countryside, the people in the countryside are almost all farming, while the people in the city either do small businesses themselves or work for other businessmen. Even scholars have to rely on their family members to do business or work to support them. Therefore, they have become vulgar people in Yan Zhaoshi's mouth.

The prefect asked with a dark face, "Ju Ren Yan, do you think it was Li who killed your child. Is there any evidence, such as human evidence or physical evidence, if you have seen it with your own eyes?"

Yan Zhaoshi was stunned. Of course he didn't see it with his own eyes. He heard what Mrs. Guo and his sister-in-law said, and the elder brother and the third brother also said the same.

"... Since Li wants to harm others, of course he will not see it."

The prefect sneered: "That is, there is no evidence or physical evidence. You are talking nonsense and talking nonsense?"

Yan Zhaoshi wanted to defend himself, but he didn't know how to refute it, so he had to say, "Who else can it be if it's not her? She couldn't give birth to a son herself, so she wanted to kill my son."

The prefect couldn't bear it anymore, and slapped the agglomeration and shouted: "Since you have no evidence, don't talk nonsense, so as not to insult your ethics!"

Yan Zhaoshi was stunned. It was his first time to come to the yamen to sue when he was in the south. When he was in the south, he was a respected juren. During festivals, he met the county magistrate at the banquet. The county magistrate was also polite to him and would call him brothers if he drank a few more drinks.

But this was the first time he came to the yamen to sue. It was the first time he saw the prefect of the prefect.

He was a little confused for a moment, but he didn't dare to argue anymore.

Seeing that he stopped talking, the prefect's expression improved slightly, but he still looked stern: "Yan Zhaoshi, do you agree to the divorce?"

"Student..." Yan Zhaoshi wanted to say that he wanted to divorce his wife, but when he thought of Li Qiniang's accusation against him, he swallowed the word "dismissal".

Seeing that he wanted to speak but stopped, the master was a little anxious. The case was taken care of by Dingguo Public Relations, and his own adults' future is here. What does this Yan's name mean?

The master lowered his voice and said in a voice that only the few people in the hall could hear: "Jun Yan, since you also dislike Li, you might as well divorce him. You can also marry another lady from a famous family as soon as possible. He is a true legitimate son, and he is worse than a maid born by Tongfang."

Yan Zhaoshi's heart moved, and he suddenly remembered the sister of the poet Tang. The lady Tang was not only beautiful, but also knew everything from piano, chess, calligraphy and painting. The Tang family was also a scholarly family. The poet Tang loved this sister very much. Not only did he take her sister to the poetry party, but he also recommended them one by one.

At that time, he also thought that if he could have a talented woman like Miss Tang as his wife, he would have no regrets in his life.

But it's just thinking about it. After all, with a background like Miss Tang, it's impossible to be a concubine.

But what if he and Li Qiniang divorced?

Yan Zhaoshi's heart swayed like this.

"I agree!"

As soon as he finished speaking, the gavel in the hand of the prefect slapped again: "Okay, I will rule that you two will divorce. From now on, men and women will have nothing to do with each other!"

The prefect gave the order, and the secretary wrote He Li Shu in a few seconds, signed and sealed it, and then gave Yan Zhaoshi the dowry list handed over by Li Qiniang: "Can the dowry be made solid?"

Yan Zhaoshi looked at them one by one and found that the shops and farms were all from the south. It was originally the people brought by Li Qiniang from her parents' home to take care of them. Master Yan and Master Yan San wanted to go over to help manage them several times, but Li Qiniang did not agree. For this, Mrs. Guo was very angry.

However, these shops and farms are probably already turned into ruins and wastelands. Even if Li Qiniang can go back one day, those are not hers.

Therefore, Yan Zhaoshi made a great checkmark on these names. As for the jewelry and antique decorations written on the list, he refused to admit it: "These were lost when they fled, where can they go to find them?"

Li Qiniang didn't argue and let Yan Zhaoshi make a fork on it until the last item. Yan Zhaoshi was stunned and entered the house three times?

"I bought this and it has nothing to do with Li's family. You can check the fish scale booklet. It's my name on it."

The secretary looked at Li Qiniang sympathetically. Li Qiniang smiled and asked, "Who will that daughter belong to?"

When Yan Zhaoshi heard Li Qiniang mention her daughter, the first thing that came to mind was Yan Xuehuai's kick at him.

He said without hesitation: "My Yan family does not have that unfilial daughter."

Li Qiniang chuckled and said to the secretary: "Since the Yan family doesn't want it, then our Li family wants it."

Yan Zhaoshi then heard the problem, and he hurriedly said, "But she is from my Yan family. Even if she dies, her surname is Yan."

The secretary looked at Li Qiniang again. Li Qiniang raised the corners of her mouth slightly and showed a sarcastic smile: "It's just a surname, I won't argue with you."

Yan Xuehuai, who had been listening to the movements in the hall, finally breathed a sigh of relief. She was also worried that her mother would go to the house in Luoguxiang, just not to fight. As for herself, Yan Xuehuai knew it. Even if Yan Zhaoshi wanted her, Old Mrs. Guo would not agree.

After figuring out the dowry, the procedures for separation will be completed.

The prefect remembered what the master said and asked, "You both have something to do, and if there is nothing to do, you will leave."

Li Qiniang presented the complaint she had been holding in her hands: "Minister-in-law Li sued the juren Yan Zhaoshi and his family to kill someone and seek property, and asked Master Qingtian to avenge the people!"
