After traveling through time, she took her husband to be a food doctor

Chapter 417: The trial of criminals and the confiscation of their property, the night is full of rom

"Li Qingming is so clear-headed." Li Xingjian waved his hand and asked someone to pour cold water on him to wake him up.

With a start, Boss Li opened his eyes and saw Li Xingjian and a group of yamen runners. He knelt down and kowtowed repeatedly: "My Lord, I know I was wrong. I was just scared. The fruit was sold by a foreign store in Nanzhou. I really thought it was just a big cardamom. I am guilty, I am guilty!"

"You have been running a spice shop for decades. Are you still trying to fool me with such a clumsy lie? What is the price of cardamom? One pound of poppy is worth two pounds of cardamom. Do you really think I don't know anything?"

"Sir..." Boss Li's tongue began to fight, "I will definitely ask more questions in the future, and I will definitely take the new spices to the clinic for confirmation first!"

Xiao Xin and the others looked at each other. This guy really knows how to save face. Li Xingjian felt amused and helpless. He didn't have time to listen to his clever tricks.

"Tell me, how should I punish you?"

"Sir..." Boss Li swallowed his saliva and continued, "Please consider that I am unaware of this... I am willing to donate this year's revenue..."

"Li Qingming, you lied and deceived first, then hid the stolen goods, and even just wanted to donate one year's revenue to get away with it. You underestimate our county too much!" Li Xingjian slammed the gavel.

"Sir, I am willing to donate for two years, no, five years!" Boss Li hardened his heart and said.

Li Xingjian sneered: "Li Qingming, please write down the address of the foreign shop and the name and characteristics of the shop owner in detail."

"Yes, yes!" Boss Li felt relieved. Ling Junsheng handed him paper and pen, and he knelt on the ground and finished writing quickly.

"Do you know if there are any other people who bought poppy fruits from Nanzhou?"

"Common people..."

"Say!"

"Young Master Liu Danhua from the Liu family in Luocheng County. I only know him... It seems that there are also buyers from other states. I don't know their names." Boss Li lowered his head.

Li Xingjian's heart was in a knot. Did all the lands of more than a dozen states fall? After the new emperor came to power, the court had many exchanges with foreign countries, and business was exchanged. Black-hearted people took the opportunity to bring in things that harmed people...

He clenched his fist and said coldly: "Li Qingming, you hid poison, had bad intentions, and took advantage of the situation. Twenty strokes of the cane, and half of your property will be confiscated."

"Sir... no..." Boss Li was in despair and almost fainted. What a good county magistrate, he actually tried to trick him and punish him severely. Mrs. Li trembled and pulled her husband, thinking that as long as she didn't go to jail, exile, or behead, everything would be fine.

Li Xingjian submitted a memorial and waited for news from Governor Xun and the court.

In the evening, Ding Xirui cooked pumpkin porridge, Dutch potato stewed with chicken, stir-fried cabbage, and fried corn cakes. The aroma came out of the kitchen, and the family was delighted. During the day, Ling Junsheng sent a commendation medal from the county, and a crowd of people gathered at the entrance of Jimin Hall. Mr. Zhang personally accepted it and held Lin Mingxuan's hand, and was reluctant to let him go. Ding Xirui smiled awkwardly and did not explain further.

"Let's eat." Ding Xirui called out and brought out the tortillas. After discovering the problem and finding someone she trusted and capable to help solve it, her tense mood finally relaxed and she could sit down and have a good meal. As the New Year approached, the nights were getting colder and colder, and there was a small brazier in the house, which was warm.

"Jimin Medical Clinic has made great achievements one after another. The young lady and the young master are so amazing." Nanxing and Banxia chatted while serving the dishes.

"The young lady is amazing." Lin Mingxuan smiled slightly. The problem of opium and poppy fruit was really handled by Xi Rui. She grew up among piles of medicinal herbs, had extraordinary knowledge and was very vigilant. He felt that he was not as good as her.

Ding Xirui suddenly felt uneasy. She looked at Lin Mingxuan's face and found nothing unusual, so she was relieved for the time being. She looked at Nanxing and changed the subject: "Nanxing, you and Banxia are also doing well. Without you, how can the young master and I get things done?"

"Young Madam, Nanxing has been sneaking out all the time recently." Banxia was dissatisfied and started to complain.

Nan Xing didn't care and raised her chin: "I have something important to do." After that, she turned to Lin Mingxuan and said, "Master, I sold the lip balm you made for five taels of silver~"

"Really?" Lin Mingxuan was a little surprised and a little embarrassed.

"Well, there are three rouge shops in Lan County. I went to all of them and even asked the vendors on the street. I bargained with the owners for several days." Nanxing said proudly.

"Good Nanxing, I'll give you a pancake as a reward." Lin Mingxuan's face turned red. He didn't dare to look at Ding Xirui and gave Nanxing a corn pancake.

"Thank you, young master!" Nanxing secretly glanced at the two of them, lowered his head and smiled.

"Making lip balm is so profitable..." Ding Xirui also felt a little uncomfortable.

"In fact, with the herbs, labor, and time, it's not expensive to sell it for five taels." Lin Mingxuan said as he lowered his head slightly, focusing only on eating. He spent many days and only got three small boxes, which was really "luxurious". The first box of lip balm was for him and Ding Xirui... His face became even redder.

"In the future, make simple ones." Ding Xirui pushed a bowl of porridge to him and smiled softly.

After washing up in the evening, facing the blurry bronze mirror, Ding Xirui took off her hairpin, and Lin Mingxuan came quietly to her. The warm embrace, although separated by pajamas, was warmer than the brazier.

Her face turned red: "Help me take out the small hairpin at the back."

"As the lady commands~" He sat aside and did as she said.

"Anything else to do?" he asked.

"Nothing."

"Well...well, is the lip balm any good?" he asked suddenly.

"You..." She turned her head, not knowing what to say.

He kissed her forehead, leaned down, and hugged her. She was startled, holding his arms tightly, staring into his eyes, her cheeks still red.

"Go to sleep." He put her on the bed, got closer and closer, and kissed her. She hugged his back, exerted force, and turned over.

He was slightly surprised, and the next moment, he laughed out loud: "Your kung fu is getting more and more powerful."

"You are only allowed to attack suddenly?" She leaned down and kissed his lips. He closed his eyes slightly, accepting her "counterattack" and love, feeling happy. He put his arms around her back and moved down gradually. His waist was soft and flexible, kneading gently, over and over again. She felt itchy, struggled a little, and turned over.

"Hate~" Her eyes flashed fiercely, the corners of her mouth curled up, she raised her hands with five fingers spread out, and rushed towards his waist.

"Ouch~" He was helpless and grabbed her hand and held it.

The two looked at each other and laughed out loud.

"Good girl~" He touched her face.

"No!"

The nightgown slipped off, revealing her thin but powerful shoulders. He kissed her and rubbed her neck. She felt even more itchy and shrank back, leaving a row of teeth marks on his shoulders. He trembled and began to "fight back", increasing his strength everywhere, like a beast entering the forest, no one could stop him.

The candlelight flickered, their hot bodies pressed tightly together, moving back and forth, responding to each other, the curtains swaying, as if a boat was sailing on the river, the suppressed moans continued, her eyes moistened, her hands passed through his thick hair, and they continued the long kiss, he hugged her waist and pressed closer to her...

The sun shone through the window. Her eyelids felt heavy and she tried to open them. She moved slightly and felt sore. The person next to her pressed against her left shoulder. She glanced at him and saw a red and burning sensation.

She pushed him: "Get up."

"Hmm..." He hugged her tightly, still closing his eyes.

"It hurts..." She muttered, and his eyes suddenly opened.

"Where does it hurt?"

"Look," she pointed to the crook of her neck.

He put his mouth on hers, "I really couldn't control myself last night..." He suddenly felt a pain in his shoulder, and when he turned his head, he could still see some teeth marks. He turned his head, and there was a hint of slyness in his eyes: "You did a good job."

“Hahahahahaha…” She touched it and her face suddenly turned red.

Last night, there was indeed a lot of noise.

He got out of bed, took out the ointment to reduce swelling and relieve pain and applied it to her. Her skin became smooth, and the little flame in his heart seemed to be rekindled.

"Let me apply it for you," she said with a smile, and applied the medicine directly to the palm of her hand, rubbing it a few times.

"Get up." She wrapped herself in layers of clothes, stretched, washed her face, fixed her hair, and her face in the bronze mirror was still a little flushed. She took the wooden sword and walked out the door.
