Xun Sheng sighed helplessly, "Miss Chen, it’s not that I don’t want to help you. The Wen’an County Lord already has a personal vendetta against your father, and now with what happened... I’m just a re scholar, at most holding the title of Scholar, there’s really nothing I can do."
He indeed knew so classmates with connections, but if Chen Bing really committed a cri, he wouldn’t let others be troubled.
Chen Qiu raised her head, "No, Brother Xun, you have a way."
Xun Sheng was puzzled himself, "What way do I have?"
"It’s, it’s that Young Master ng," Chen Qiu said, "Aren’t you acquainted with Young Master ng? Didn’t you say he’s now helping Lord Qi with his work and is highly regarded by him? It’s Lord Qi who will be hearing the case at the governnt office. You, you just need to ask soone to tell Young Master ng to say a few words to the Lord on our behalf."
Chen Qiu had accidentally seen Xun Sheng talking with ng Yunzheng. At that ti, ng Yunzheng was leading a squad out of the governnt office, looking imposing, clearly of so distinguished status.
Unexpectedly, Xun Sheng turned out to know ng Yunzheng. After they t at the office gate, they exchanged a few words.
From their deanor, it was obvious that they were old acquaintances.
Later, Chen Qiu asked Xun Sheng about it. Xun Sheng only comnted with admiration, "He, just like , passed the local scholar’s examination last year, but I ranked third, while he was the Top Scorer. He’s talented, now a popular figure around Lord Qi, and has a promising future ahead."
At that mont, there was a hint of envy in Xun Sheng’s eyes.
Chen Qiu, however, was contemplating that if that Scholar ng had a bright future, then Xun Sheng, who had a good relationship with him, surely wouldn’t fare badly either. After all, they were fellow students.
Later, she even ntioned it to her father Chen Bing, saying that she must have chosen the right man this ti.
Chen Bing was very pleased and even gave her so money, telling her not to be stingy while going out, and to buy more costics and adorn herself.
Thus, when Chen Bing was in trouble, he quickly thought of the popular figure around Lord Qi.
This is why Chen Qiu sought out Xun Sheng.
Little did she know, after listening to her, Xun Sheng was montarily stunned, his expression particularly complex.
Chen Qiu thought he was unwilling, and her expression beca all the more pitiful, "Brother Xun, I beg you, just a few words, just ntion it in front of Young Master ng."
A classmate, seeing Xun Sheng’s soft-hearted look, couldn’t help but nudge him—no way, such connections should be used at crucial tis, definitely not wasted here.
Xun Sheng rubbed his temple and sighed heavily again, saying to Chen Qiu, "Miss Chen, it’s not that I don’t want to help you, but... but that Young Master ng is the fiancé of the Wen’an County Lord."
Classmate, "..." Damn, Chen Bing is really dood.
Chen Qiu’s steps halted, looking incredulously at Xun Sheng, "What did you say?!"
"The Wen’an County Lord is Young Master ng’s fiancée. That’s why I know the county magistrate."
Chen Qiu’s eyes were vacant, just staring at the team moving further and further away.
When Xun Sheng looked at Chen Qiu again, his eyes were filled with pity and helplessness, "Miss Chen, please calm down. Though the relationship between Young Master ng and the Wen’an County Lord is deep, from what I know, Young Master ng is a fair and honest person who wouldn’t cover up or shield anyone. So rest assured, as long as your father hasn’t done anything wrong, I believe he will be fine."
The classmate glanced at him, really? Are you sure?
