Quick Wear: A Newbie Goes to Pet Her Husband

Li Baoli was startled by Liu Xiliu's suddenly raised voice.

"Liu Xiliu, what do you mean? How dare you yell at me?" Li Baoli opened his eyes wide, pointed at Liu Xiliu and shouted loudly.

"Don't you believe that I will let my mother deal with you?"

As soon as he finished speaking, Liu Xiliu's face became even gloomier.

"Hmph, then let's wait and see if your mother can deal with me." Liu Xiliu ignored her threats and did not take her seriously at all.

"Someone is coming!"

Liu Xiliu called a yamen runner.

"Go and investigate the identity of the deceased at Fulai Restaurant two days ago, and who she had contact with before her death." Liu Xiliu glanced at Li Baoli and Ye Jianrong, and then said, "At the same time, you should also pay attention to whether there is any money from unknown sources in their homes."

"Yes, sir!" After receiving the order, the bailiff turned around and rushed away like the wind.

"You, you, you...you are so bold!" Before Li Baoli could finish her words, Ye Jianrong raised his hand to stop her.

Ye Jianrong walked in front of Liu Xinliu, turned his head slightly, glanced at Lin Qingyan and the others with the corner of his eye, and raised the corner of his mouth slightly, revealing a faint smile: "Master Liu, you see, we all know each other, maybe this is just a misunderstanding. I think there is no need to make a big deal out of it, right? Don't you think so?"

Although her smile was as warm as the spring breeze, Liu Xiliu was keenly aware of the hidden warning in it.

"Hmph! There's no way you'd give up halfway while handling a case in the capital!" Liu Xiliu ignored Ye Jianrong, turned aside, and began to ask the women about the situation.

At this time, Lin Da stepped forward and spoke to Liu Xiliu on behalf of the crowd: "Master Liu, we followed this young master and the three young ladies all the way here. They did not say any bad words to them during the journey, but it was the two young ladies who shouted and called for their death. We mistakenly thought that these two were wanted criminals of the imperial court, so we followed them all the way here."

Having said that, Lin Da paused for a moment, then turned his head to look at Li Baoli and the other two. He seemed a little afraid, worried that his next words would offend them.

Liu Xiliu saw through her inner concerns at a glance, and then patted his chest, saying that he would fully support her: "Don't worry, just speak boldly! No matter what happens, I will take the responsibility."

"Yes." After getting Liu Xiliu's assurance, Lin Da straightened up and continued.

"And when we realized something was wrong and stopped helping them fight the two men, they threatened us women and threatened to make us die in an ugly way."

After hearing these words, Liu Xiliu immediately understood that the rumors about these two people in the capital were probably much more serious than the actual situation.

"Sir, will we..." Lin Xiao asked cautiously, not daring to finish the words, for fear that saying the wrong thing would bring about a fatal disaster.

Liu Xiliu naturally understood what she meant, and could see the fear in her and the people behind her. They were all ordinary civilians. In this strictly hierarchical society, even the yamen runners could be above them, not to mention the two powerful women in front of them.

"Don't be afraid, I will guarantee your safety." Liu Xiliu said to them in a firm tone and made a promise. Hearing this, Lin Da and others finally breathed a sigh of relief.

However, Liu Xiliu was not at ease. After all, among these people, there was the son of the prime minister, the niece of the current empress, and the daughter of the minister of the first rank. He was just a second rank official, and in their eyes, he was not worth mentioning at all.

These young people were easy to deal with, but if they accidentally offended the powerful elders behind them, the consequences would be disastrous. Liu Xiliu was undecided for a moment, and after thinking for a while, he decided to send people to their respective mansions to invite these people to come and discuss the matter together.

After waiting for a long time, she got the news from the yamen runners that these people were still in the palace. So she packed up all these troubles and took them to the palace to let them worry about it.

"The common people Lin Qingyan and the common people Ling Nianxiao pay their respects to Her Majesty the Queen!" The two of them said in unison and saluted Mu Yunsheng in unison.

When Li Baoli saw her mother here, she couldn't help feeling a little guilty, but when she noticed her mother's eyes, she immediately understood and followed Ye Jianrong to salute Mu Yunsheng.

"Ling Yao, who developed this fine salt?" Mu Yunsheng asked first.

"Your Majesty, this item was made by my son-in-law Lin Qingyan." Ling Yao replied respectfully.

Just as everyone was paying their respects, she learned that the person in front of her was named Lin Qingyan.

"Lin Qingyan, take a step forward and raise your head." Mu Yunsheng ordered.

Lin Qingyan raised her head and took a step forward as she was told, standing firmly in place and allowing Mu Yunsheng to look at her carefully.

Looking at the person in front of him, he saw that she was calm and composed, neither humble nor arrogant, especially her eyes, which revealed an incomprehensible determination. Mu Yunsheng couldn't help but sigh inwardly: "This person is a talent!"

"Did this fine salt come from your hands?" Mu Yunsheng asked in a low voice.

"Reporting to Her Majesty, this thing was indeed developed by me." Lin Qingyan replied respectfully.

"How did you research such a wonderful thing?" Mu Yunsheng asked immediately.

"It's just a pastime in my spare time." Lin Qingyan responded lightly.

It must be said that her answer, which was so pretentiously profound, just confirmed what Ling Yao had said before. After hearing this, Mu Yunsheng subconsciously glanced at Ling Yao, only to see that her face was full of pride, and she did not hide her feelings at all, and the corners of her mouth twitched slightly. He couldn't help but sigh in his heart: "It's true that people from the same family are alike!"

Mu Yunsheng saw Li Baoli flirting with his mother below, so he asked, "Why are you here?"

"Your Majesty, we are...commoners," Li Baoli wanted to seize the opportunity, but saw Mu Yunsheng waving his hand.

"I want her to speak." Mu Yunsheng pointed at Lin Qingyan.

Li Baoli fell silent after hearing that. Ye Jianrong behind her pushed her and she lowered her head again.

"Your Majesty, I have been wrongly accused. I beg Your Majesty to seek justice..." Lin Qingyan explained the whole story one by one.

From the conflicts between the couple to how Li Baoli got entangled with her husband and how she kicked Li Baoli, nothing was concealed.

Because Lin Qingyan knew that she couldn't play smart under Mu Yunsheng's nose and had to be sincere.
