The Prodigal Son's Happy Life - Chapter 178
[Chapter 178 Silver Fine]
Fine When the prairie knights on maroon war horses heard the woman’s words, they were surprised at first, and then showed humiliating expressions, but without any rebuttal, they dismounted obediently and stood behind the woman.
This group of people obviously respected this woman and did not know her status among the grassland tribes.
Fang Xiu looked at the tall woman not far away with some curiosity.
Xia Yixue glanced coldly at the prairie knights who had dismounted. Without saying anything, she turned around and walked towards the Kyoto government office.
At this time, a policeman wearing soap clothes came from a distance.
He looked tired and out of breath. He walked to Xia Yixue, took a deep breath and whispered something.
Xia Yixue listened quietly without any change in her expression. She only glanced at the prairie woman at the end.
After the policeman finished speaking, he stood aside and stopped talking.
Xia Yixue turned around, looked at the grassland woman, and said: “In the riot, you let your horse hurt someone. According to the law, you should be imprisoned in the dungeon.
Mr. Fu Yin thinks that you don’t know much about the laws of Dachu, and it’s your first time offending, so I decided I’ll give you a chance, and if you pay a fine of ten taels of silver each, you will be spared from jail.
If there is a next time, you will not be lenient!” When
the grassland woman heard this, she smiled and bowed to Xia Yixue. He said, “Thank you, Mr. Fu Yin.”
After saying that, he took out a few ingots of silver from his arms, handed them to Xia Yixue, and said, “Here are fifty taels of fine silver. Mr. Xia, please accept it for me.”
Xia Yixue said expressionlessly .
After taking the money, he no longer looked at them, but focused on Zhao Yan not far away, and said: “The matters in the capital will naturally be handled by the Kyoto government. Miss Zhao has a special status, so please…”
She said Before he finished speaking, he was interrupted by Zhao Yan: “Why do they only need to pay a fine of ten taels of silver to avoid jail?
Just because they are from the grassland? What
if this girl is manipulating in a busy city ?
Do you only need to pay ten taels of silver for Ma Erxing? After all, I don’t understand the laws of Dachu and it’s also my first time offending!”
Zhao Yan stared at Xia Yixue with an unconvinced look on her face.
When Xia Yixue heard this, she was silent for a moment, walked to Zhao Yan’s side, and whispered: “The incident about the female ghost in white back then.”
At this point, she stopped abruptly.
Xia Yixue took a step back and looked at Zhao Yan expressionlessly without saying a word.
Zhao Yan seemed to have thought of something when she heard the words ‘girl in white’, and was startled, with a blush appearing on her pretty face.
She snorted coldly, returned to Fang Xiu, and said with dissatisfaction: “Let’s go, out of sight, out of mind!”
Fang Xiu smiled at Xia Yixue, comforted Zhao Yan and said: “Captain Xia also has his own difficulties. I believe she doesn’t want to do this either.”
Zhao Yan glared at Fang Xiu, with a dangerous light in her eyes, and asked: “Whose side are you on?”
This was a proposition.
A little carelessness can lead to a disaster.
He saw Zhao Yan and Xia Yixue’s eyes focused on him.
Fang Xiu thought for a while and replied seriously: “I am on the side of justice. You and Capt. Xia both represent justice, but in different ways.”
When Zhao Yan heard this, she snorted coldly and stretched out her arms. He took out his hand and pinched Fang Xiu’s arm hard, and said nothing more.
Xia Yixue also withdrew her gaze, glanced at the grassland woman, and left Gujing Street.
When the onlookers saw this scene, although they were a little dissatisfied, they couldn’t say anything.
After all, it was Lord Fu Yin’s order. Even if they, ordinary people, couldn’t stand it, they couldn’t change it and dispersed one after another.
Although those prairie knights were spared from prison, they lost ten taels of silver for no reason, and all of them were dissatisfied.
This was not the first time for some of them to come to the capital of Chu State. In the past, they had galloped wildly in the capital. Although some Chu people yelled at them, no one dared to stop them.
Unexpectedly, today I met such a little girl who was not afraid of death. I was really a little depressed.
Of course, in front of the seventh princess, they only dared to hide their depression in their hearts and did not dare to show it on their faces.
The grassland woman glanced at Fang Xiu next to Zhao Yan, and seemed to have thought of something. She showed an expression of interest on her face, walked up to Zhao Yan, smiled, and said: “This matter is the fault of my tribe. I hope this girl can give them a chance to change their ways.”
Zhao Yan glanced at her and said, “I don’t have the ability. Give them a chance.”
The grassland woman smiled and said, “You are as brave as a girl .”
A woman like this is rare even in the vast grasslands.
I admire women like you very much. I wonder if you can accept my invitation and give me and my tribe a chance to apologize to you. “
Zhao Yan. Looking at the prairie woman, she thought for a while and asked, “What invitation?”
The prairie woman looked at the Chunfeng Tower not far away, and said with a smile: “We prairie people always treat guests with wine. This is the capital of Chu State, far away from the prairie. The distance is far, and it is really unrealistic to invite the girl to the grassland.
How about I hold a banquet here at Chunfeng Tower and apologize to the girl?”
Zhao Yan glanced at Fang Xiu and didn’t reply.
Fang Xiu smiled, leaned into Zhao Yan’s ear, and whispered: “They are treating guests, and if you don’t eat, you won’t get anything for free. Moreover, in Chunfeng Tower, they can’t try to play any tricks.”
When Zhao Yan heard this, she nodded in agreement, looked at the grassland woman, and said, “Okay, I accept your invitation, but my friend wants to go with me.”
The grassland woman smiled and said, ” Of course, you don’t know the girl’s name?”
Zhao Yan said happily: “Zhao Yan!”
The grassland woman smiled and said: “Wanyan Yanran”
Obviously, Wanyan Yanran is her Chinese name,
the same as Zhao Yan. , both have the word “嫫” in their names, which I have to say is a kind of fate.
Wanyan Yanran looked at Fang Xiu and asked with a smile: “I don’t know about this young master.”
Fang Xiu thought for a while.
These guys from the grasslands may not be able to stay in the capital for long, so it doesn’t matter if they tell him their real names, so they replied: “I’ll rest down below.” When
Wanyan Yanran heard the word ‘Fang Xiu’, she looked surprised and said: “It turns out it’s Mr. Fang, I’m disrespectful and disrespectful.”
Wanyan Yanran was very familiar with the etiquette of the Chu State. Facing Fang Xiu, she performed the standard female etiquette, which was dignified and not formal.
Fang Xiu smiled when he heard Wanyan Yanran’s compliments and didn’t say much.
His name was indeed widely circulated among the people in the capital, but he didn’t think that a woman from the grassland had heard of his name. He only regarded it as a compliment and didn’t take it too seriously.
Wanyan Yanran looked very dignified among the prairie knights. She was smiling from beginning to end. She looked at Zhao Yan and Fang Xiu and said, “Miss Zhao, Mr. Fang, please”
