homecoming

Tang Fei is a well-known barrister in the 21st century. Lawyers naturally have a high status in modern society and are respected by many people. At the same time, they are also an ideal career that many people yearn for.Even a lawyer like Tang Fei who only cares about money but not the nature of the case and social morality is sought after by many people, so Tang Fei takes it for granted that in ancient times, the status of litigators was equivalent to that of modern lawyers.

The truth is that in ancient times, the so-called "litigators" did not have the legitimacy of legal procedures, which means that this profession was not recognized in the ancient judicial system.Moreover, in the traditional Chinese legal culture, the basic positioning of the value of a litigator is that of a troublemaker and a troublemaker in society.This kind of occupation generally does not have a "good" image in the vision of ancient politicians or laws.Although those who help others write pleadings must have fame and fame, but those who become litigators are those who can't get along in the examination room and officialdom, and they have to engage in such a job to make a living.

In fact, Tang Fei taught a course when he was in college, which was devoted to the history of the "lawyer" industry, and also talked about the role of ancient Chinese lawyers in the eyes of rulers and ordinary people.The most famous example is Deng Xile, a statesman in the State of Zheng during the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period. He is recognized by the legal profession as the originator of ancient litigators.It is said that Deng Xi is good at litigation, and his debating skills are unrivaled. According to historical records, he often "practices ambiguous theories and sets endless words", and can "hold the reason and make sense".It is a pity that Deng Xi was brutally killed by the politicians at the time as the culprit who disturbed the hearts of the people.Even in the Song Dynasty, when the development of litigation studies and the status of litigators reached the peak in feudal society, there was a phenomenon that "they went too far, and before closing a case in the yamen, they almost always had to hire a litigator."It can be seen how unpopular and dangerous the profession of "litigator" was in ancient times.

To quote a modern scholar, "Litigiors have always been despised in traditional society. Their images are greedy, cruel, cunning, and treacherous. "(Note)

It's a pity that Tang Fei didn't choose such a useful historical data class back then, and he didn't even hear the general summary above.

That's why Tang Fei, who didn't know the truth, was surprised by You'er's reaction, and that's why You'er was so opposed to Tang Fei's decision.

When Tang Fei quietly listened to You'er's status and nature of the litigator here, his face also sank. No wonder that Feng Chenying was so talkative, so he did it on purpose!He clearly knew that the litigator didn't have a good reputation and status, but he didn't say anything, and still supported him so much!

"My lord, I beg you, You'er, quickly get rid of this absurd idea! Not to mention that you come from a clean family, even the master will not agree!" You'er's face was full of sorrow, he couldn't understand how the young master was doing well. How did you come up with such an idea?The former son was simple and straightforward, how could he be a litigator?However, after the son was injured and lost his memory, he seemed to be a different person...Of course he didn't know that the current "Fang Lin" was Tang Fei, and he was still short of money.

"Hmph," Tang Fei sneered, "Who said Feng Chenying wouldn't agree, he even agreed to help me get business!" Tang Fei couldn't think of Feng Chenying's intention to do this, he should really miss the real Fang Lin It's right to come back, otherwise, that night, he wouldn't have given the magic stick hundreds of thousands (1000 taels) so readily.But if he becomes a lawyer and comes back after causing trouble, "Fang Lin" will not end well.What exactly is Feng Chenying thinking?

"How could it be? Lord, he won't..." You'er looked downcast, and he didn't know what Feng Chenying wanted to do to Tang Fei. Feng Chenying indulged Tang Fei very much, even his innocent Courtesy and arrogance can be ignored.But why let him be a "lawyer" again?

"Okay, that's it. Anyway, Feng Chenying will take on something, and it's not my turn." Tang Fei ignored You'er's worry, and got up to get Huang Yelu.Since he can't guess what kind of conspiracy Feng Chenying is up to, then let's go on like this first, anyway, the boat will naturally go straight when it reaches the bridge, so let's see what happens.

On the second day, Tang Fei got up early, led You'er, and left gracefully under the watchful eyes of the East Yard and others.Today he was dressed very neatly, and his hair was not tied casually like in the past, but neatly tied.Because he was going out, he didn't refuse You'er to help him get dressed and do his hair.

While passing through a corridor, Tang Fei and You'er met the steward Tie Huan.Tang Fei nodded slightly to Tie Huan, and continued walking forward without changing his expression.You'er had no choice but to hurry up to Steward Tie, greeted him and followed.

Tie Huan kept watching "Fang Lin" until his figure disappeared around the corner before turning and leaving.This "Fang Lin" has changed since that accident, especially his temperament and smile.No matter how dissatisfied "Fang Lin" was with Feng Chenying in the past, he just showed it directly. He didn't know how to hide it at all, and it was easy to see through his straightforwardness.However, Tie Huan frowned after being injured in "Fang Lin". There was something more in his eyes that others could not understand. There is a sneer that seems to be nothing, and the words are even more sharp and mean, and his gestures are full of confidence and imposing.But he believed that Feng Chenying had her own arrangements, and the master would not let a person with fangs and sharp claws stay in the mansion.

After leaving Fengqi Pavilion, Tang Fei subconsciously took a deep breath, the free air was really so fresh!Since that night, he has been locked in this gorgeous mansion for half a month, and now he is finally out!

Tang Fei let You'er lead the way. The only time he came into contact with the society here was when he fled. He was cautious and depressed, and he didn't even look carefully at the streets.

While You'er introduced Tang Fei to Tang Fei, the capital of Huangye Kingdom, Cotton Brocade, it is different from the quiet and serious residential area adjacent to the official residence in the first half, and the bustling streets and bustling shops and restaurants in the second half.

In a pastry shop selling small snacks next to the street, Tang Fei bought a bean flour glutinous rice cake for himself and You'er, and shared two copper coins.The money belonged to "Fang Lin". Before going out, Tang Fei took two taels of silver and a penny, enough to spend for several days.

Tang Fei seldom went shopping in modern times, but occasionally asked Chen Chen to come out and take a walk in the specialty store when he wanted to buy new clothes. Now, in this quaint and extremely bustling street, Tang Fei rarely wanted to go shopping. thought.Although he came out today to get acquainted with the environment of Huangye Capital, so as to prepare for future business.

Tang Fei looked around curiously all the way, and when he saw something he was interested in, he would stop and look at it carefully, but he hardly bought anything except food.

As he walked, Tang Fei was attracted by a burst of sweet fragrance. Looking up, a peddler in his twenties was sitting on a ponytail and fiddled with the things in front of the stall, all of which were packed in small boxes.Tang Fei walked over curiously, and You'er followed behind, with a strange expression on his face.

"Excuse me, what is this?" Tang Fei bent down slightly and looked at those exquisite porcelain or wooden boxes. Inside the boxes exuded a tempting sweet fragrance, like the soft scent of several kinds of flowers.

You'er was taken aback for a moment, it turns out that the young master really doesn't know these things...

"Haha," the peddler smiled heartily, looked at Tang Fei and said, "I see this young man is handsome and well-dressed, he must be the son of a rich family? Don't you have many wives and concubines at this age? Even these good things I don't even know it!"

You'er's face darkened, and she was about to step forward to scold her, but Tang Fei stopped her and said with a smile, "I really don't have any. What are these? The box is pretty delicate."

The peddler was taken aback for a moment, then smiled and said, "Young master is twenty, right? You really don't even recognize these boudoir items? These are rouge powders, things for women!"

Rouge gouache? !Tang Fei reached out and picked up a small oval porcelain box and opened it. A burst of aroma filled his nostrils, and inside was pink rouge.It turned out to be ancient cosmetics!Tang Fei laughed and shook his head. He smelled it and thought it was the raw material of scented tea that modern people drink!

You'er couldn't help covering her mouth and giggling, the young master is really innocent, he doesn't even recognize these things.

"My lord, how about it? All my goods are of the highest quality, and this one only costs twelve yuan! Even the concubines and concubines in the palace like to send people to buy some back here! Even if you don't have a wife, It’s okay to bring some to the female relatives at home, I’m sure they like it!” The salesman rubbed his hands and tried his best to sell it.

The corner of Tang Fei's mouth raised slightly, and just as he was about to shake his head, he caught sight of You'er snickering at the side. Tang Fei suddenly realized that this You'er knew what these things were but didn't remind him!The curvature of the corner of the mouth increased, and Tang Fei called You'er: "Your, stand here."

You'er, who was giggling, was taken aback and hurriedly stood in front of Tang Fei.

Tang Fei lowered his head slightly and said to him, "Don't move." You'er stiffened immediately, but in fact, even if Tang Fei didn't tell him, he didn't dare to move, because his breath was too close to him!

An evil smile flashed across the corner of Tang Fei's mouth, and he stretched out his index finger to wipe the light pink rouge, and then spread it evenly on You'er's light lips.

When the warm fingertips touched You'er's lips, You'er's whole head "boomed", her face was red, her ears were red, her heart beat faster, and her whole body was so hot that she was about to smoke!

"Not bad, not bad, pink cherry lips, looks good. Ha ha ha ha!" Tang Fei laughed and dragged out a few nondescript ancient prose, stuffed the rouge to You'er, and then gave the money.

The shopkeeper took the money with a dumbfounded look on his face, and he didn't come back to his senses until Tang Fei and You'er were far away.

"Hey, let me tell you, I haven't married a wife at this age, so I'm a rabbit!" The salesman put away the money and said with disdain.

You'er's face was always flushed abnormally. Tang Fei thought it was too hot, so he found a nice restaurant and took You'er in, as if he didn't know that he disturbed others because of his own reasons The pool of spring water in the young boy's heart.

"You'er, sit down. You're outside now, so there aren't many rules." Tang Fei asked You'er to sit down, and then looked at the scorching sun outside. He didn't expect that ancient summers were so hot. He thought that only those with severe greenhouse effect Such hot weather can only happen in modern times.

You'er blushed and peeked at Tang Fei. The pink rouge on her lips hadn't been wiped off. When she saw Tang Fei's neckline was pulled open to reveal her white collarbone because of the heat, she immediately lowered her head, her heart beating so fast that she almost Jumped out of the throat!

"Is this your first time here? May I ask what you want to eat? Would you like some of our restaurant's signature dishes?" At this time Xiao Er ran over, promoting the most expensive dishes in his restaurant with a respectful tone and a smile on his face. .

Tang Fei turned off his appetite when he heard the big promotion of abalone's wing belly. Who would like to eat these fishy and greasy things in such a hot day?

"No need, just a few cold dishes for appetizers, and a pot of snow buds." Tang Fei interrupted Xiaoer, who was reporting the name of the dishes, and said.

Xiaoer, who originally heard that Tang Fei only wanted cold dishes, started to slander her, but when she heard the word "Xueya", the disdain on her face immediately turned into a respectful smile, she nodded and said, "Master, I'm really sorry , there are no snow buds in our store..." This is a tribute from Ouchi! How could they have it in such a small place!Xiao Er thought that Tang Fei was a royal son who came out to play in the market, and he wanted to turn to the taste of talking because he ate those abalones and wings every day. He was secretly glad that he didn't say anything disrespectful just now.

"Okay, let's have a pot of good tea, and I'll serve some good cold dishes. Let's go down." Although You'er was absent-minded, she also noticed the change on Xiaoer's face. Quickly sent him away.

"Yes, yes, the little one will be ready for you right away!" Xiao Er nodded and ran away.

"Did I say something wrong?" Tang Fei looked at You'er opposite and asked. He was a thoughtful person, and he had noticed the change in the little girl.

"No, it's just that they can't supply Xueya in such a small place, so you don't have to mind too much." You'er said hastily.

"Oh." Tang Fei nodded indifferently, and continued to look around.Because it wasn't lunch time yet, there weren't many customers in the restaurant. After Tang Fei and his table were all served, there were gradually more people. After half an hour, all the seats were filled.

"I knew I should have a private room. You must be very uncomfortable in such a noisy place, right?" You'er looked at Tang Fei worriedly and said.

"It's nothing, it's good to be lively." Tang Fei looked around, feeling a bit like Cantonese morning teahouses, they are all so lively.

"Hey, I heard no, Liu and Zhang are having trouble again!" The person at the table behind Tang Fei and the others suddenly said.

"What's so strange about this? They have trouble repairing the ancestral graves several times a year, who doesn't know!" One person took over the conversation.

"It's different this time! I heard that they all went to the court. It seems that the two of them are determined to earn that piece of Feng Shui treasure!" Another person said again.

"So powerful? Is there any result?" the person with good deeds asked.

"No, no, I heard that our Fu Yin is having a headache because of this matter!"

"I think this matter is difficult. It seems that the trial will take several years!"

"Isn't it?"

"God knows how many years it will be!"

Tang Fei was attracted by the words of those people, real estate dispute?It seems that the first business has been settled, but I don't know if the two families are rich or not, and how much he can earn if he takes this case.

Tang Fei frowned slightly and said nothing, his eyes were deep and his face was serious, all his thoughts were on this matter.But You'er was fascinated by it. The young master who became serious turned out to be like this, so charming...

It wasn't until after dark that Tang Fei and You'er had dinner outside before returning to Fengqi Pavilion.

When Tang Fei came out of the shower, he found that You'er was not there. Usually at this time, he would come to his room to light wormwood to repel mosquitoes.Tang Fei shrugged his shoulders indifferently, maybe he was busy with something, then took a big cattail fan and hugged Huang Yelu and sat on the recliner under the pergola while enjoying the shade while reading a book by the lantern.He wants to successfully get the case of fighting for property rights!

You'er knelt in front of Feng Chenying, even though she was kneeling in front of the curtain in the outer room, You'er still lowered her head and dared not look at him, her hands were trembling with cold sweat.

"I heard that you went out with--he today?" Feng Chenying reclined on the large soft couch, looked at You'er with cold eyes, but kneaded Xiangjun in her arms with both hands, and Xiangjun snuggled up to him She panted softly in her arms.The "he" Feng Chenying said was naturally Tang Fei.

"Yes, sir." You'er replied in a low voice.

"What did you do?" Feng Chenying lightly smiled and pinched the red cherry on Xiangjun's chest, and heard his painful moan with satisfaction.

"Master Qi, the young master took his servants to the market for a day and ate some folk snacks." Cold sweat rolled down You'er's forehead, and he subconsciously concealed the incident with Tang Fei in front of the rouge shop.

"Oh? Really?" The beauty Feng Chenying was in her arms, but her breath was not disturbed at all, her eyes were clear and cold, and the Xiangjun in her arms was already full of desire/sex, and she was already emotional/moving on Feng Chenying. Stop dawdling.

"Yes..." You'er's voice trembled unconsciously, the master wouldn't know, definitely not!

"Pink cherry lips, I just found out today, You'er, you're not bad in looks." Feng Chenying's voice came from the third layer of curtains, tinged with teasing.

You'er was startled, Lord, I really know!You'er's face was already pale, and his collar was completely soaked in cold sweat. He didn't know how his master would punish him, but he knew that his methods were always cruel, especially for betrayers.

"Hehehe," Feng Chenying chuckled, "I'm just joking, go back and tell him that I will leave the mansion with him tomorrow."

You'er was shocked again, and said in a trembling voice, "Yes, Lord."

You'er strode out the door with difficulty, and the moment the door closed, he heard the lewd/roaring cry of that Xiang Jun.Holding up her body and leaving Yuanfei Courtyard, You'er just sat down on the ground, gasping for breath. Just now, when the master said that he was joking, he clearly felt the murderous intent.

You'er hugged her legs and curled up into a ball, hiding in the shadows.He dared not betray Feng Chenying, let alone not love Tang Fei.

"Sir..."
