Chapter 294: The time travelers confront each other, scaring Xu Qian'an

Although the tax-silver case had made a breakthrough, Xu Qian'an was still worried.

Because of the intervention of the night watchman, Xu Qian'an was not worried that the Ministry of Justice would take all the credit for his work.

What he was worried about was whether the Ministry of Justice could solve the case on time. If it couldn't be solved within two days, it would be a dead end.

"Now that we know the tax silver was swapped, it should be easy to investigate. The only people who have come into contact with the tax silver in the capital are the leaders of the issuing and defending parties."

"To put it in today's terms, it should be the small leaders of the Ministry of Revenue and the Imperial Sword Guard. If it weren't for the serious mutual protection among officials, the case should be solved quickly."

Xu Qian'an spent two days in prison eating and drinking well, and the punishment finally came.

"Mr. Xu, you can go now!"

The jailer had a smile on his face and politely called Xu Qian'an "Young Master". Xu Qian'an clearly remembered that when he came in, these jailers did not have this look on their faces.

He was confident at first and respectful later, which makes people laugh when they think about it!

After signing, Xu Qian'an saw the haggard Xu Pingzhi, the red-eyed Li Ru, and the jumping Xu Lingyin.

Obviously, Xu Lingyue had taken care of it personally, and these people were treated even better than Xu Qian'an. Although they looked haggard, they did not suffer.

If I weren't worried about life and death, these days would be like a prison experience day.

Xu Qian'an couldn't help but sigh, from ancient times to the present, there must always be someone above you!
"Master, are we okay? Lingyue told me yesterday, but I couldn't believe it."

Li Ru obviously knew the news, but she was a woman after all, and it was natural for her to be worried when she was put in prison.

Before Xu Pingzhi could say anything, the clerk who led them said quickly, "It's all right, it's all right. Lord Li has solved the case and the tax money has been recovered."

"Lord Xu and Madam Xu gave birth to a good daughter. She didn't suffer at all despite such a great disaster."

Xu Pingzhi also sighed. He never thought that when he sent his daughter to Li Changan as a maid, she actually saved his life at the critical moment.

Li Ru wiped away her tears excitedly, and finally felt relieved. "Thanks to Lingyue, thanks to Lord Li."

"At the critical moment, the son is not as useful as the daughter... oooh."

Xu Qian'an seemed to have returned to the time before he traveled through time, working hard to catch people, and when he was commended, all the credit went to his boss.

But Xu Pingzhi was not confused. "Sir, even if the tax silver is recovered, my crime of dereliction of duty cannot be pardoned."

"Your nephew Xu Qian'an provided the night watchman with key clues to solve the case, so we will let you go for your meritorious service."

Xu Pingzhi and Li Ru looked back at Xu Qian'an and found that Xu Qian'an's eyes were different from before. He no longer had the stubbornness and obstinacy of the past.

"Ning Yan...you?"

Xu Pingzhi was a little excited, but at the same time he couldn't believe it. Li Ru had tears on her face and didn't believe it at all.

"Uncle, Aunt, I did find some suspicious points."

Li Ru firmly believed that it was her daughter Xu Lingyin who had smoothed the relationship with Li Changan. She did not believe that this money-eating nephew had the ability to help solve the case.

"Master, Lingyue must have asked Lord Li to solve the case. In order to rescue us, she gave this kid a title of meritorious service for his crime. Otherwise, there would be no reason to pardon us."

Xu Pingzhi's eyes were filled with doubt, because this possibility was not small. If Li Changan wanted to save their family, he would have to let the younger generation in the family make up for their crimes and make meritorious contributions.

Only Xu Qian'an had handled the case, so it would be most reasonable to give the credit to him.

But Xu Pingzhi was different from Li Ru after all, so he patted Xu Qian'an on the shoulder and said, "Ning Yan, good job."

Xu Qian'an knew that it would take time to change the stereotype of this family.

Especially this plump aunt who still has charm, one day she will be convinced by my words.

The family followed the clerk from the Ministry of Justice out of the back door of the prison and saw Xu Lingyue and Xu Xinnian who were waiting eagerly.

Before, Xu Qiyan had never paid much attention to Xu Lingyue, and even had a hint of inexplicable hatred towards her, but when he actually saw her in person, Xu Qiyan was still amazed.

She has a classic and delicate oval face, a high nose bridge, and the charm of a mixed-race beauty, making her look very elegant and refined.

Before he traveled through time, it would have been impossible to get a house of this quality without a dowry of two million.

"Father, mother!"

Sure enough, in the eyes of this sister, there is no cousin like her.

Although she knew the case had been solved, Xu Lingyue was finally relieved when she saw her parents released from prison.

She threw herself into Li Ru's arms, and the mother and daughter hugged each other and cried. Li Ru kept praising her daughter for growing up and becoming successful.

"Brother, although Lord Li was the one who presided over justice this time, you also made an important contribution by thinking of the silver being swapped."

Xu Xinnian walked up to Xu Qian'an, held his arm, and spoke fair words for him. It was not easy for this scholar who had been proud and conceited since childhood to say such words.

Xu Qian'an did not dare to take credit for it. "If it weren't for Lord Li's thunder technique, I'm afraid I would never be able to refine fake silver and verify my guess."

"This shows that there is an alchemy expert behind this case."

Xu Pingzhi asked in surprise, "Cijiu, who swapped the silver?"

Li Ru also shouted anxiously, "Yes, who framed the master?"

Judging from her urgent tone, she was probably in a hurry to ignore Xu Qian'an's contribution.

Xu Xinnian said, "It was a director of the Ministry of Revenue and a captain of the Imperial Sword Guard. It is not clear who they are yet."

Xu Pingzhi was speechless, because he didn't know there was anything wrong with the captain.

Xu Qian'an fell into doubt. This level was at most equivalent to the budget director and colonel captain in his time. He had neither the power nor the courage to touch the national tax treasury.

The case that my second uncle was involved in was very complicated, as expected in the capital, and it has been the same since ancient times.

After returning home, Xu Qian'an unceremoniously ate at his second uncle's dining table and no longer cooked for himself like before.

He could have eaten for free and looked at beautiful women at the same time, but he still had to work hard to cook for himself. He must be crazy.

After dinner, Xu Qian'an quietly found Xu Lingyue.

"Sister, what kind of person is your young master?"

Xu Lingyue was a little surprised. She felt that Xu Qian'an's tone and expression had changed a lot.

The previous Xu Qian'an, knowing that she was going to be Li Chang'an's maid, showed contempt intentionally or unintentionally.

She said with a slightly angry look on her face, "Of course he is a very good person. Without him, our whole family would be finished. How dare you ask what kind of person he is."

Xu Qian'an said with a warm smile, "My dear sister, you misunderstood. What I meant is that a good man like Lord Li has any hobbies. Please tell me so that I can thank him."

After hearing what Xu Qian'an said, Xu Lingyue's expression instantly improved, but a blush still appeared on her cheeks afterwards.

Xu Qian'an was secretly shocked. What kind of games does Li Chang'an like to play that makes Xu Lingyue so shy?

"My Lord is a man of both literary and military skills, and he also has many hobbies. He is proficient in all the arts, such as music, chess, calligraphy, and painting. There is nothing he can't do!"

Xu Qian'an listened to Xu Lingyue's flattery without any valid conclusion. He now urgently wanted to know what kind of person Li Changan was and then decide how to deal with him.

"Oh, by the way! The young master said that your junior high school chemistry... technique of refining fake silver is very interesting. I hope you can come to my house for a visit when you are free." Xu Lingyue was very unfamiliar with the term junior high school chemistry, so she memorized it by force, but Xu Qian'an was very familiar with it.

Li Changan has made his cards clear. He wants me to go over there... Confess and get leniency?
"I won't tell you anymore. If I don't go back, the young master will be worried."

Xu Lingyue didn't say a few words, and left in a hurry, twisting her waist, looking like a young lady who was anxious to meet the top brother on the list.

Xu Qian'an seemed to have integrated smoothly into this big family. He had something to talk about with everyone. He was also very insensitive and completely unresponsive to the stinging words of Li Ru.

He approached Xu Xinnian and said, "Cijiu, what kind of people are Li Jinluo and Li Daru?"

"A sub-sage with a big heart! A literary giant with a great style and elegance!"

"Back then, he was a chivalrous hero in Jianzhou. Later, he helped the orphanage in the capital and often helped the Six Gates and the night watchmen solve cases..."

Xu Qian'an bared his teeth. This was not the answer he wanted. All these things were in the memory of the original owner.

Now he made a preliminary judgment that this Li Changan had sufficient literary accumulation before he traveled through time, at least much better than him, which could be seen from copying poems, printing, and storybooks.

As for why he cultivated so fast, Xu Qian'an guessed that it was due to some other adventure.

Therefore, both of them are time travelers, but their current identities and statuses are very different.

Li Changan's status in the capital is equal to that of Wei Yuan, Zhao Shou and others, and he has a close relationship with the two princesses. Although he does not attend the court, even Emperor Yuan Jing is secretly paying attention to him, and all officials will give him face.

After he opened up a new path with the Four Sentences of Hengqu, he did not cause much trouble. He just helped the night watchmen and the Ministry of Justice solve cases, and then he was keen on selling calligraphy and paintings, and storybooks to make money.

Xu Qian'an had already revealed his identity as a time traveler in front of Li Chang'an, so he couldn't hide quietly.

If Li Changan was a bad guy, then with the opponent's actual combat power of the third rank, killing him would be no different from stepping on an ant.

But based on the current information, he should be a normal person who is greedy for money and lustful, and perhaps has a little sense of justice.

But it's hard to say. When people have money, they will do some superficial things, such as helping orphanages.

In any case, Li Changan must have seen through my identity and has called me over, so I have to go.

"Whether they are good people, bad people, or normal people, it is never wrong to flatter people and give them compliments whenever you meet them."

"As long as you are sensible and lick my ass, you will be successful in everything!"

The next morning, Xu Qian'an did not go to work, but went directly to Li Changan's mansion.

After seeing the wide gate of Li Changan’s mansion that could accommodate a truck, Xu Qian’an suddenly felt a sense of heroism. A real man should be like this!
We are all time travelers. If Li Changan can enjoy the superiority of feudalism, so can I, Xu Qian'an!
After a brief briefing, Xu Qian'an followed the servant into the six-courtyard compound and first met Xu Lingyue.

The moment he saw Xu Lingyue, Xu Qian'an once again envied Li Changan.

Because Xu Lingyue was not wearing pants, her straight and slender legs were exposed under her skirt.

In this era, women wore pants under their skirts.

Okay, okay, Li Changan really knows how to have fun. Why doesn’t he let Xu Lingyue wear black stockings?

After arriving at Li Changan's study, Xu Qian'an knelt down without hesitation without saying a word.

"I am Xu Qian'an, your humble servant, and I am here to see Lord Li!"

Li Changan, who was sitting on the throne, was not surprised at Xu Qian'an's performance. He was just taking advantage of the situation and had high emotional intelligence.

"You are just a quick hand, not an official, so why call yourself a humble official? Get up and sit down to drink tea."

Afterwards, Xu Lingyue poured a cup of tea for Xu Qian'an and handed it to him.

Xu Qian'an picked up the teacup, his heart pounding. He couldn't just drink a stranger's water outside.

However, he found that Li Changan was looking at him, and Xu Qian'an had no choice but to take a sip.

There's no point thinking too much. If Li Changan wants to kill him, there's no need to go through so much trouble.

Afterwards, Li Changan dismissed all the maids and left only Xu Qian'an.

Li Changan's expression showed no joy or anger, but was rather majestic.

"What do you do over there?"

Xu Qian'an thought to himself that the confrontation between the two time travelers did not seem to be earth-shattering.

He answered truthfully, "Young policeman, I have some experience in handling cases."

Telling the truth now will make it easier to use Kuaishou’s identity to handle cases in the future.

"Where's Mr. Li? He must be a successful person over there."

Xu Qian'an stood there and saw that Li Chang'an was obviously silent for a while, then he slowly stood up and walked in front of Xu Qian'an.

"I didn't have a choice before, now I want to be a good person."

The teacup in Xu Qian'an's hand shook and almost fell to the ground. He had heard this line too many times.

Could it be that this Li Changan is the reincarnation of a gangster boss, or a gangster boss who knows how to whitewash himself through culture!

When Xu Qian'an first became a policeman, he was full of enthusiasm and he watched that movie so many times that he can almost recite the movie by heart now.

Sorry, I'm a policeman!

However, Xu Qian'an was very calm and knew that he should not talk nonsense now.

"Master Li, you are such a good man. Without you, I would have died in prison long ago!"

Li Changan sat next to Xu Qian'an and asked casually, "How old are you this year?"

"Brother Li... I've only been here a few days. According to the age calculations over there, I should be 25."

"Young man, I am much older than you."

Hearing Li Changan's words, Xu Qian'an cursed in his heart, thinking that he was trying to take advantage of him.

"Uncle Li...?"

Li Changan chuckled, "You can call me ancestor."

Xu Qian'an's mind raced, "But you look only eighteen years old now, so calling you that would make you sound old."

Li Changan wanted to play with Xu Qianan, and sighed deeply, "In this life, I don't want to kill a policeman."

Xu Qian'an was shocked and now he needed to express his opinion!

"Don't worry, Lord Li. Although I have come through, I will definitely behave myself. I won't say anything I shouldn't say, and I won't do anything I shouldn't do."

"You are quite sensible. There is something in the tea you just drank, but it has no effect on you. But I want to kill you, it's just a matter of thought."

Xu Qian'an felt a chill on his back and his palms were sweating. He immediately stood up and knelt in front of Li Chang'an.

"Master Li, I, Xu Qi'an, am Master Li's man in life and Master Li's soul in death. From now on, I will obey orders, follow instructions, keep secrets, and never forget my original intention!"

Good fellow, he even recited the police oath. Li Changan laughed and said, "Oh, you are full of jingles!"
