Chapter 131 Phoenix falling into the water

Mrs. Zheng looked at this fool who was causing trouble all day long, and she couldn't help but get angry.

Gritting his teeth, he threw the teapot in his hand towards Chen Zican.

Chen Zifu was shocked and reached out to push her.

But Chen Zican leaned away and stretched out his left hand. The porcelain pot filled with half a pot of hot tea was spinning on his fingertips without a drop of water spilling out.

Although Chen Zican has never learned martial arts, he has a pair of skillful hands that he has developed from various deceptions and tricks. After this period of intensive training, he has regained his former seventy-eighth kungfu.

He smiled and placed the teapot on the table.

He said to the stunned two people: "Noisy, have you come to an end in your quarrel?"

"Who wins the argument and can solve the current problem?"

Zheng said bitterly: "Your brother always said that you have become smarter and I can't solve it. Why don't you go to Magistrate Ye and solve the problem?"

"How about you go kowtow to Qi Dalang a few times and see if he can let your brother go?"

Chen Zifu usually gave in to her, but when he saw her speaking so harshly to his brother, he couldn't help but get angry.

shouted: "Enough!"

"I have already said that Qi Dalang has done all kinds of evil and violated national laws. I strongly advocated his arrest and trial. What is wrong with Guan Zican?"

Mrs. Zheng shed tears of grievance when she saw that her husband not only refused to help her, but also followed the idiot brothers to make things difficult for her.

Point at his nose and scold him.

Chen Zican pressed her hand down: "Sister-in-law, how do you know I can't solve it?"

Mrs. Zheng sneered: "We, the Zheng family, can't do anything about it. How can we expect you to be a fool?"

"Go ahead and resolve the matter if you can. If your brother doesn't go to jail, I'll kowtow to you three times, no, three hundred times!"

Chen Zican said seriously: "You are my sister-in-law, and I am your brother-in-law."

"Although the Chen family is not a wealthy family, they still have basic etiquette and rules."

"But I don't know what the rules are for you, the wife of the Zheng family, to scold her husband in front of him?"

"Don't all of us ladies know about the three cardinal principles and the five permanent principles?"

"You don't have to kowtow to me for three hundred times. I can't bear it. Just kowtow to my brother!"

What Chen Zican said was reasonable and reasonable. Zheng was so angry that she couldn't stand it.

He had no choice but to snort, glance at Chen Zican sideways and said, "Well, I want to see how smart you are."

"As long as you have the ability to solve the problem, I will never default on this!"

"Besides, I will be grateful to you forever!"

Chen Zican smiled and nodded: "Then it's settled."

"Go back to the back. The men are discussing things. Why are you getting involved?"

Zheng's expression changed, she thought for a while, snorted, turned around and left, but she didn't have an attack.

The two sat down and smiled bitterly at each other.

Chen Zifu sighed: "This matter is not easy to handle!"

Chen Zican touched his nose: "Well, it's difficult to handle, but it's not impossible."

"I just chatted with Yang Jiaoyu for a while, and the key to this matter still falls on Qi Dalang."

"For the current plan, we can only bring down Magistrate Ye first and then capture Qi Dalang, and things will turn around!"

Chen Zifu nodded slightly: "What you said is absolutely true, but it doesn't mean you didn't say it!"

Chen Zican said "Oh?"

"Why do you say that?"

Chen Zifu smiled bitterly: "He is the fifth-grade magistrate. I have been suspended from duty. How can I pull him down?"

"What's more, when the official documents from the governor's office arrive, I may lose my official status and become a prisoner in prison..."

Chen Zican smiled and comforted: "Don't we still have three days?"

Chen Zifu glanced at him and shook his head silently.

Indeed, they had three days.

But, what can be done in three days?

Chen Zican understood his thinking.

Patted him on the shoulder: "Brother, don't be discouraged, what a big deal!"

"I know your ability. This time, we join forces and we are brothers with one heart and one mind, and we are as powerful as gold!"

"Three days may not mean that you can't do something..."

Chen Zifu raised his head and looked at Chen Zican's firm eyes, which seemed to be full of convincing power.

His heart, which was already despairing, slowly warmed up...

Finally, he nodded vigorously.

Stretching out his hands, the two brothers shook hands and laughed.

At this time, someone suddenly knocked on the door.

Chen Zifu said coldly: "Who?"

A maid said timidly: "Master, my wife asked me to bring you a pot of tea..."

The two looked at each other in surprise.

Chen Zifu said: "Come in."

A girl with buns pushed open the door and walked in with her head lowered. She gently placed the tray in her hand on the table.

He took out two cups, poured tea in them, placed them in front of the two of them, then bowed and left.

Chen Zican smiled half-heartedly: "Brother, isn't this tea poisonous?"

"Do you have arsenic, crane, red or anything like that in your house?"

Chen Zifu didn't know whether to laugh or cry and glared at him.

He picked up the cup and smelled it, then raised the corner of his mouth slightly: "This is Maojian from her hometown. Those tea trees are hundreds of years old. I've gone to see them."

"Usually, she is reluctant to take out this tea herself."

"Forget it if you don't drink..."

Saying that, he drank it all in one gulp.

Chen Zican grimaced: "I'm really a little scared."

"However, since you drank it, this time, our brothers will live and die together..."

With that said, he also drank the cup of tea in one gulp.

The two looked at each other and smiled, with warmth lingering in their hearts.

I feel that no matter how thorny things or complex problems are in front of me, they seem to become less scary.

Chen Zican thought for a while and said, "I heard that Magistrate Ye had been serving as the county magistrate in Xiuwu County before he was promoted?"

Chen Zifu nodded.

"I think the people in Xiuwu County, and even the county government officials, don't like him very much."

"Presumably, his official voice is not very good, right?"

Chen Zican was thoughtful.

Chen Zifu nodded again and took a sip of tea: "This person was originally the magistrate of Xiuwu County appointed by the former Ming Dynasty."

"During the national crisis in Jiashen, the fifth battalion of Gezuo came to attack Huaiqing. He took off his official robe, changed into civilian clothes, and presented the city to surrender."

"At that time, he had only been practicing martial arts for a few months."

"Although he has no good governance, he has not done any evil, so Lao Hui Hui ordered him to still be in charge of Xiuwu County affairs."

"In the second year of Shunzhi, he still bore the title of Dashun."

"Later General Azig pursued the east-route invading army all the way."

"When he arrived in northern Henan, he captured dozens of wounded soldiers left by the Chuang army in Xiuwu and surrendered to the army."

"He dyed his crown red with human blood and still serves as the magistrate of Xiuwu County."

"It's just that he changed into the official uniform of the Qing Dynasty."

Chen Zican tapped his fingers lightly on the table, making a sound.

Hearing this, he sighed softly: "You are a slave of the third surname!"

"No wonder, this promotion is a bit slow."

Chen Zifu nodded: "Probably because he repeatedly failed in major tasks, he wasted seven years in his tenure as Xiuwu County Magistrate."

"In the past few years, under the order of shaving hair, every time a person with long hair was caught, it was a great achievement."

"I won't tell you what he did. You heard it this morning."

"The son of Zhang Xiucai from Wen County is only three years old, so he has never shaved his head."

"Let him know and report it directly to the governor's Yamen."

"As a result, the child was killed, the magistrate of Wen County was dismissed, but he was promoted to the prefect of Huaiqing..."
